It's been days since the astronauts left Polus. They were on their way home, most of them trying to forget what happened on the cold planet.

Everyone felt their heart break at the memory of Brown, the unlucky one that was infected by a parasite who made him want to kill this team.

Brown: IT'S NOT ME!!!

These were his last words that were still haunting his camarads and saddest thing was that he was right, it was not him, it was the parasite.

Lucky he was caught in time before he managed to hurt someone and threw in the lava hoping that they'll never encounter such monsters.

Anyway, now everyone was minding their own business, completing tasks and making sure that everything runs smoothly on board, ensuring a safe place while waiting to arrive at their home planet.

Even if the team was formed of small groups, the crewmates were quite a united, cooperating with no problems if needed.

Pink: I can't believe it! I didn't know that Purple is color blind! This explains why he always has to do wires with someone...

Orange: Well yes... Didn't he tell you? Come on girls, we're here with him for months already.

Said orange sitting on the table in communications letting an annoyed sigh.

Pink: No one told us Orange, don't blame us.

Orange: Don't blame you? We have access to all crewmates' files! How can you not check his files if you see that there's something wrong with him!? Plus didn't you asked yourself why he has to do some tasks with the help of someone!?

Orange and Yellow were in communications making sure that Pink doesn't get bored while waiting for her download to be done.

In their way there Pink and Yellow started to chat about the pretty boys of the team. This led to Orange mentioning that Purple wouldn't be able to make the difference between the two girls because of his disability.

Pink: Haha! So if Yellow manages to make Purple like her I can steal him with ease.

Yellow: HEY!

Orange: Why fight for one boy when one of you can take Red, he's his bff thought.

Yellow: Hm... Our brave Red... I think I prefer him.

Said Yellow while making herself comfortable on the floor.

Pink: Wait.. NO! I want Red!

Yellow: Too late dear.

Orange: Here we go again.

She said while getting up and sitting next to Yellow, hugging her shoulders with her left arm.

Orange: Don't forget that you have my heart already.

Yellow: We won't. We call you mom for a reason ya know.

Yellow and Pink started to chuckle while a comfortable silence began.

On the same side of Skeld, in navigation to me exact, the two previously said boys were having their time while pretending to pilot the ship.

Purple: Captain Red, there are too many! What should we do? The shields will give away in any moment!

Red: We won't give up! Win or death!

Purple: Yessir!

Red: No! The shields are broken, this is the end!
