'Mom, what time is it?' Max asked. 'Max, I know you are excited, you asked it just a minute ago. It is now 10:13 AM.' Max sighed. 'How late are we settling for take-off again?' Lydia sighed deeply before she said 'I said that a minute ago too. We are closing the gates at 2:00 PM, we are checking at 2:15 PM, we are settling at 2:45 PM and we are taking off at 3:00 PM. Happy now? Noted everything? I'm not saying it again, okay.' Max grinned 'Okay mom, I got it now.'
A few hours later, the entrance of the take-off terrain was crowded with hundreds of people. Everyone who knew the Fowlers, and even the ones who didn't, came to see them take off. Meanwhile in the spaceship, Lydia and John checked every need before taking off. Max looked at his watch. 2:40 PM, his parents should be ready in any minute. 'Hi bud!' A low voice said behind him. Max looked back. 'Oh hi Philip!' He looked into the blue eyes of a man with black hair. Philip was a crewmember that was traveling with them. 'What's up?' Philip asked. 'Just checking some things for mom.' Max replied. That moment his Intercom on his arm started to make sounds. 'Oh thats her, she's on the IT.' Phillip smiled and said 'Okay, i'll stop bothering you. Good luck with your tasks!' Max pushed the PTT button on the Intercom and answered 'Yes mom, still here. What can I do?' After a few minutes, everything that needed to be checked, was checked. He looked at his watch again. It was exactly 2:45 PM now, so they would be settling in a few seconds. With that thought, the IT in the ship began to talk. 'Everyone please settle in your seats. We will be taking off in about 15 minutes.' That same moment the engines began to make noise.
'Everyone, last warning! Please settle down and out your seat belt on. We will take off in about 5 minutes.'
Max strapped his seat belt on when a young man with long, blonde hair took a seat next to him. 'I don't think we met before, did we?' He asked.
'No, I don't think so. I'm Max, Max Fowler. And you are...?' Max replied. 'I'm Jeremy DeNovo. Nice to meet you!'
'Nice to meet you too.''We will take off in about 1 minute. Fasten your seat belts please!' The IT said.
Max sighed lightly. Now it was gonna happen. He was going to space, with his parents and 5 other crewmembers. He always wondered what it was like in space. He thought it would be amazing to float and have no weight.
'We will take off in about 10 seconds. 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, Ready for takeoff. Taking off now.'
A heavy sound swells from the engines, and 5 minutes later the IT said that they were in space. Everything went well, and the adventure was about to begin! What would wait him?
