CHAPTER 1
It arrived in the mail, one early Saturday. Azira, more commonly known as 'Azi', was dragging herself out of bed, bleary-eyed and tired. It was 6 A.M., but Azi had to wake up because she was going to Mira HQ for yet another day of training. Azi had joined the Young Astronaut Program.
She noticed a letter lying on the doormat, addressed to her. She opened it and it read:
Miss Azira Lyvington:
We are pleased to announce that you have been chosen to be a part of The Airship's first ever launch. We have noticed that your performance in Y.A.P. (Young Astronaut Program) is extraordinary, and you fit all the requirements.
You must arrive at Mira HQ at 7 A.M. on the 13th of July, and you cannot be late. You will be boarding the Airship, and living on the Airship for three weeks, along with twelve other crewmembers and one pilot and one chef. You will be assigned a room along with one of the other crewmembers. Your job is to complete tasks on the Airship each day, report back to Mira HQ each week, and to test out the Airship's functions.
The following things are required:
Identity card | Mira HQ Y.A.P. Member Card | Passport
The other things to pack are up to you. Keep in mind that except for living quarters, water, and food, Mira HQ will not provide anything else.
Our staff will explain more in detail that day. We hope to see you on Wednesday. If you do not wish to participate, please notify us before the 5th of July. Thank you.
MIRA HQ
Azi stared in shock at the letter. She couldn't believe her eyes. No, this had to be a dream. There was no way she was actually invited to board the Airship, and being one of the first! She pinched herself hard. It hurt, a lot.
'Unbelievable.' She thought.
Then, she grinned widely and screamed, "Yes!" She was so excited! Her summer would have been super boring, not anymore now. She calmed herself down with a deep breath, but she couldn't contain her smile. 'Grandpa would've been so proud of me." She thought, as her smile drooped a bit, remembering the dreary funeral and the black-clad people putting her Grandpa inside the earth...
She shook her head. She shouldn't focus on the past, she should be looking forward to boarding the Airship! She ran to her room and started packing.

Azi ran on the streets, weaving through crowds of people--ugh, she hated crowds, but apparently it's very busy at 6:30 A.M.-- her legs working like a well-oiled machine. It was part of her 'running routine', to keep herself fit. She smiled as she skidded to a stop in front of the towering building. It was Mira HQ. Azi looked up, shielding her eyes with her palm. The building was so tall it poked right through the fluffy clouds, its glass walls glittering in the bright summer sun.
She caught her breath as she walked into the building, dragging along her duffel bag and suitcase. A staff member noticed her and gestured her over. "Are you Miss Azira Lyvington?" The woman asked.
Azi winced, she hated her first name and preferred her nickname. "Yeah. I'm supposed to be part of the Airship launching, I think?"
