Assuming the script name is "scriptname", this will run the script
scriptname in the same directory as the AppleScript.
set {oldDelims, AppleScript's text item delimiters} to [NOBREAK]
{AppleScript's text item delimiters, ":"}
set myPath to text items 1 through -2 of (path to me as string) as string
set AppleScript's text item delimiters to oldDelims
do shell script quoted form of (POSIX path of myPath & "/scriptname")

Also, how would I create an alias to it on the Desktop?
This code snippet will make an alias of the Safari app on the user's desktop

make new alias file at theDesktop to alias "Macintosh [NOBREAK]

end tell
