5up and crew successfully land on the LCP without problem. 

All of them decide to take a look outside the rocket waiting for the developer team's direction.

The LCP really looks gorgeous. The landscape looks rocky, mountainous, and purplish. The sky is dark blue with single moon circling around the LCP. There are a lot of tree looks like Christmas tree but with greenish trunk and reddish needle leaf. There are also a lot of flying animal that looks like hummingbird but with butterfly-shaped and glowing wing. One of the animal lands into 5up's shoulder.

"5up, look. The animal lands on your shoulder!" Kimi amazed by the look of the animal. "Awwww, it looks so cute" 5up face blush when he take a really close look on the animal. Kimi and the rest of the crew decides to take picture of the 5up and animal on 5up's shoulder.

"Hey, everyone" it seems that one of the people from the developer team already arrived on the rocket's location. "I'm Sombui, the guide for you on this planet" he introduces himself. "This evening you will go to The Submerged, which is around 4 hours after this" he speaks to 5up and crew as he looks at his unique watch. The watch only has 7 marks - implying there are only 14 hours total in this planet - that has Japanese-like alphabet on each of the mark.

"Uhm, Sombui. I would like to ask something" Koji talks as he raised his left hand. "Yeah?" Sombui raises his eyebrow, emphasizing that he is listening. "What does the C on LCP mean?" Koji asks curiously. "Oh, it based on roman numerical number on earth. C is 100 based on it, meaning that LCP is 100th planet we already use to optimize the Polus as last map that we already developed successfully. Before we found LCP, it originally called Lamentis" Sombui explained it thoroughly.

"Oh, i thought there is 'C' on LCP because it rhymed like 'Sea', you know that this mission is basically 'Sea-based mission' hahaha" Ellum just suddenly speaks out of nowhere. Apparently, the rest of the crew and Sombui feel that Ellum's "supposed-to-be-a-joke" not funny.  Steve and 5up even cringing over Ellum's joke. "No, Ellum. It is not" Sombui reply Ellum's joke in serious way.

5up immediately change the conversation topic. "Sombui, what is this animal called?" 5up asks Sombui with soft tone. "Oh, the hummingbird-like animal? The native people called it Gnak" Sombui answer it as Gnak lands on his hand. "It is really cute. Different from 'Earth Hummingbird', Gnak really have strong beak and can penetrate hard trunk of Aavronn. Aavron is the Pine-like tree that you already see in this planet" Sombui really look into Gnak's eyes as he explain about Gnak. 5up decides to take the photo of Sombui and Gnak whilst Sombui explain.

"Sombui, i want to ask something" Hafu and Kimi call him at the same time. Both of them feel awkward after that. "Yeah?" Sombui once again doing his eyebrow movement. "You first" again, Hafu and Kimi speak at the same time. "Okay, you first" Sombui pointing his finger into Hafu. "I wonder about your watch. It looks really unique" Hafu also pointing, but into the watch.

"Oh, this?" Sombui shown his watch to Hafu and the rest of the crew. "The time in this planet is so short, and native people decide to divide the time into 14 hours. The main owner of Among Us is really like Japan, so the "time marker" on the watch is developed based on hiragana alphabet. So that's a little fact about the watch" Sombui explained to Hafu. "Ah, we have the same idea!" Kimi speaks to Hafu and Sombui after Sombui answered the question.

3 hours later

5up and crew go inside the vehicle that will transfer them into The Submerged. The vehicle shaped like 2-level bus in UK but without wheel and single 4-sided blade that is normally found on helicopter. "Okay, so you all just go to the upper floor. You could see the magnificent landscape there" Sombui tell 5up and crew as he sit on one of the chair at the lower floor.  5up and crew immediately go to the upper floor and sit on the chair available there.

Half an hour later

Janet brought up an interesting topic to discuss with the other, about Steve who is sleeping right now. "I don't want to be judgmental. But do you guys open your lips like this when you drink things?" Janet show the rest of the crew other than Steve by moving her lip forward and really open her mouth.  "I need to test this." Janet pick up her bottle and try to drink the way Steve drink. "Yeah I don't. I do this" Janet showing that she drink by moving her upper lip downward. 

"HAHAHAhuh" 5up really chuckles looking on Janet impersonating Steve. Steve, the one who the rest of crew just talking about, is waking up do to 5up and the crew laugh. "DID YOU JUST SHOW EVERYBODY HOW I F*CKING DRINK?" Steve realized soon enough after seeing Janet drinking water on the bottle. "hahahaHAAHAAAA" Dumbdog really doing his signature laugh seeing Steve anger towards Janet. 

"I try to maximize gulp. Look b*tch, I'm thinking about efficiency. I'm trying to maximize gulp and there's nothing more than that. I refuse to get bodied here for simply maximizing gulp. You know. Look at this." Steve showing how he drinks. "I mean you can even hear the difference. I suck the life right out of that. That's a big boy gulp. One centimilliliter of water. I mean of coffee. There's absolutely nothing, dude. But I drink it like a horse. I don't know if I can agree with this, man. That's really though" Steve really proud of his way of drinking. Meanwhile the rest of the crew still ridicule the way Steve drinks, let alone his 'centimilliliter'.

"This is how you choke on water, Steve. I don't know, you're just gonna have to take the L. I don't like it." Janet redo the drinking the way Steve did. "You don't like how I'm not taking the L? It's not weird, dude. IT'S MAXIMIZING THE GULP. I refuse to take this L, man. This is f*cking ridiculous." Steve ranting on Janet disrespecting him like that. The rest of the crew is just happily watching argument between Janet and Steve, still find that Steve's way of drinking funny.

"The same energy" Scott laugh while showing the meme of Squidward taking literally small bite of Krabby Patty to the rest of the crew. "HAAhahaHAAAA" Kimi cannot stop laugh imagining the similarity of the meme and Steve. "I'm not gonna take a small sip. Why take a small sip when you can takr a larger gulp, DUDE? I need all my lip to do that. I don't see what's wrong here, man." Steve complaining again to the rest of the crew.

"Hello, guys. In one minute, we are gonna arrive to The Submerged." Sombui remind 5up and Crew to be prepared, just before he going back to the lower floor.

"Janet, I'm never gonna f*cking forgive you for this. I'm never gonna f*cking forgive you for this." Steve threatening Janet as all of the crew going downstairs.

One minute later

"WELCOME TO THE SUBMERGED, ALL OF YOU" Loud sound could be heard just after 5up and crew go out from the vehicle. 

It is the sound of Among Us owner welcoming 5up and crew, indicate they already arrived at The Submerged and ready to do the mission.
