One day an astronaut named Edwin McMillan was on a mission to go to the so called planet Pluto. The mission was planned for Friday the 13th and some of you may know that's not the luckiest day and so that day finally came and he was quite nervous but he made a promise and he had to go, so he strapped himself in the rocket and the mechanics said those numbers...10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...BLAST OFF! And off Edwin went to see the unknown. Once Edwin left the earth's atmosphere he came across some technical difficulties with the navigation system and wound up drifting away from his target point. And if things couldn't get any worse he saw a comet hurdling towards the rocket and he got knocked out. When he woke up he found himself on pluto but far away from his initial landing pad and lost all sorts of direction... he was lost in space! He heard a strange noise and he got out of his rocket ever so carefully as he got out he took a look at his rocket and it seemed perfectly fine. So he kept on walking but he didn't want to wander too far away from his ship so he made a trail out of food crumbs from his bag and what he didn't think about was that they float so he lost his path anyway. As he kept walking the noise seemed to be getting louder and louder then he quickly looked back and saw this metallic looking figure grabbing and eating the crumbs as he dropped them, he then realized that this figure was not only metallic but very shiny and a female gender he looked at her very closely and saw that she was very hungry and gave her the rest of the food. She ate it all and with the blink of an eye she begged for more. After a few hours of eating he asked "what's your name?" And she responded with a shy whisper "Plutonia" "that's a very nice name" he said with a firm delighted voice. As Plutonia and Edwin spent more time together they knew that they would not only be friend forever but they both knew they would soon be more than friends it was love at first sight. When that final day came when Edwin had to go back to earth he was devastate to say goodbye so she offered to help him find his rocket, so they walked together for the last time to find the thing that was going to separate them. They came close to an object that looked familiar so they ran towards it... It was the rocket and it was completely destroyed. Plutonia looked at Edwin and Edwin looked at the rocket and started crying. Then she tapped on his shoulder and said "hey I have jet packs built into my boots" he immediately looked up and smiled as if he had a bulletproof plan. And so they spent roughly three hours trying to figure out every little detail in the plan to get them both back to earth so they can live the rest of their life together. Edwin was getting really tired and so Plutonia said "you can sleep I'll keep working" and so with that Edwin fell asleep. Plutonia kept on working on the plan and she heard this loud beeping noise and she was looking around trying to find out what made that noise and she finally saw it was his oxygen level it was crucially low and so she started panicking a lot, she tried to wake him up but it was no use he didn't have enough oxygen to panic and so she gave him her boots and gave him a kiss and gave him a deep breath and she sent him off to earth. She started crying as she watched him drift through space. When Edwin got back to earth it took him a while to realize what happened and then he started crying because Plutonia gave up her happiness to save his life and that's why Plutonia will always be his hero.
