chapter 5

+are you sure?+

Sammie and I look at eachother in fear, and I decide to poke my head to see what the shattering sound came from. My head pokes through the circular air window, and I go from floating gracefully to dropping when I put it out. Oh god. Gravity. I look up to make sure nothing is gonna give me a concussion, and look down to see a large glass tube that looks like the poison that they found in season 3 of stranger things (yes, Im going there) and expanded by 10 times.

Its shattered pieces big and small are scattered around, and a red light inside is flashing out from it, while the plant inside was laying limp on the ground, the light roots still attached to the dirt inside the end of the tube. I put my fingers to my earpiece and say, "Well, good news, found gravity and we're still in one piece, bad news, the plant tube is not. One of the tubes completely shattered in this big cargo, place?" I say, ending the statement with more of a question. I hear Elliot breath heavily as he answers, "Okay, good that you're in one piece, do you need backup?" "No, it's fine, Sammie and I are gonna explore some more."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, it's fine." I smile. Aw, he actually cares hehe.

"Okay, be safe."

"always am. Over and out."

Sammie and I get to a door, and we open it to see things like fire extinguishers and screws floating in every direction. We laugh a bit at the irony and walk out the room into the plant room, where we get our fresh foods and produce. We walk in to see 3 of the 8 missings. Great, we need to come up with a plan.

Sammie and I decide to head back to the others, and as I climb in, I take off the earpiece and put it back to its rightful place. I sit back in my seat and buckle up, and see my other 5 friends. "Okay, so since the rocket was supposed to go out a couple of days later, the cargos a little wonky, but fine, we finished it up, but Sammie needs some help retrieving some of the produce tubes, there are 3 missing. There's a plant tube that broke, but we cleaned it up, and it's not an important produce tube, just a tinier plant."

"How about you?" Martin asks. "Well, Im assuming that you and Will are gonna help Sammie, so Im gonna stay with these 2." "Hey, why'd you say it like that?" Doria says with a pat, as I reach over Elliot to pat her arm. "Because last time I left you alone, you left to go the space pad and basically got us in this place that was Elliot's plan-" Elliot cuts me off, "Not entirely! Just the in and out thing," "Oh yeah, Elliot? How'd that turn out?" I sarcastically scoff.

"Yeah, we'll help Sammie." Will agrees, "Thanks, Willy." I thank him, and Martin, Sammie, and Will slowly get out of our seats, and 10 minutes later they have vanished from sight and hearing.

a/n: idek if anyone reads these, but if anyone does, hello there! hows ur day going? How was your Christmas if you celebrate that? I've had a pretty hectic couple days, I chopped off my hair and it was a stressful situation especially doing it without parents permission, definitely DONT do that, but this is a sign to do something to your hair you've been wanting to do for a while now. I now have a baby afro and I think its pretty cute. Sorry this chapter is short and a little late, Ive been having so much writers block and no imagination flow! I might take a week off and not post for 1 tuesday and Sunday, but still giving out authors nots, but I will update you guys on that on Tuesday. Have a great day my pretties, and if you are a guy, have a great day dude. (If you are a guy, please comment, Im actually really curious.)
