When Astranova got into the Communications Room, she saw that Luna, her moon alien friend and her sister Stella were both on the screen.
"L... Luna? Sister? What's going on?" She said, looking at the moon alien on the left and the young comet alien on the right.
Stella looked at Luna from split-screen.
"Sister, Luna here has a serious sticking bug on her back and her arm and she's also lost in the woods. Right, Luna?" She said, looking from her sister to the gray moon alien.
"About the lost part... I know where I am because I'm about a few minutes away from a campsite and two, the sticking bug part... Every time I try to get one of these small bugs off, they keep sticking harder..." Luna said, in an explanation.
Astranova sighed.
"I'm going to have to look this up, aren't I?" She said, beginning to think when she heard her sister Stella typing away.
"According to what Luna is describing, it's a deer tick. These little bugs can really stick to the skin." Stella said, showing her a picture of the insect.
*It's a dangerous creature. I need to take care of it right away but... How...?* Astranova said to herself as she began to think.
Then, she remembered something.
"The First Aid Kit's in the bathroom and so is the vaseline!!! Maybe vaseline'll work to get those sticky bugs off!!! I'll go get it! Luna...?" Astranova said, looking at the door and then back at the screen.
"Yes, Astranova?" Luna responded.
"Where on Earth are you?" Astranova asked, urgently.
"Camping ground. It says Camp Croft." Luna immediately answered.
Stella looked up from her research.
"It's in Spartanburg, South Carolina. Coordinates are 34.9107 degrees North and 81.8529 degrees West." She said, giving Astranova the exact coordinates.
Astranova placed them on her comet smartwatch.
"Got it. Thanks, sister and... Luna, I'm on my way!!!" She said, taking affirmative command.
Stella and Luna smiled at her and then hung up.
After they hung up, Astranova then teleported into the bathroom.
Once she got into the bathroom, she grabbed the First Aid Kit, the tweezers and the vaseline from the cabinet.
After she grabbed what she needed, she placed the vaseline and tweezers into her own little medical bag and well enough, she was back on her way.
This night was only just beginning...
