Time invalid (Somewhere in space)

6 days to impact

???

My name is no use to you, not at the moment at least, but you'll learn it. If you live long enough. "Eagle! How long left?" I nearly yell at the robot next to me. He glanced at me briefly, his dark blue metallic plating reflecting the dim light caused by some of our computer screens. "Two Narak days at least" He replied. Two Narak days is equivalant to four Earth days. I put my mechanical hand on the side of a giant screen. Two Narak days if we don't get shot down first, like four of my ships already...

Trinity

"Trin!  The phone you idiot!"  I fall off the top bunk. What moron calls at seven thirty in the morning? Now my ribs are going to hurt all day.  I drag myself towards the living room, where the only phone is.  I nearly trip over the couch(happens more times than you expect) and pick up the hone left on the table.

"You owe me five ribs" I say as a greeting. There was a second of silence, then someone burst out laughing on the end of the line. "Well im glad to hear about you too. I'm very sorry though, won't happen again." I don't recognise the voice immediately. "Which moron is this?" I ask. "This is Colin, turn on your television, NOW"

I blink almost shocked about what is on the news. The number of meteors has tripled since last night. "GENESIS, HERE, NOW!" I yell towards his room, forgetting to cover the phone's mouth piece, causing Cole to complain about his right eardrum.

Shane

Obviously my name is Shane. I'm a high, dark brown haired, 15 years old guy from the very edge of Montreal. I live near Cassandra's house. I'm not much of a nerd, i rarely go on the computer. I spend most of my time in my pool, and taking care of my Border Collie.(Who broke my family's television last week...) I stargaze ALOT. I have twenty diferent books on space ans skies, two telescopes and five miniature solar systems. I am also a fan of microscopic creatures and plants. (i do have a microscope) I just can't wait for that meteor shower, i went on the internet a couple of minutes ago, the scientists said its a strange one. It's not everyday that a bunch of meteors randomly apear out of nowhere right? Jake(My dog) barks, making me snap out of my daydreaming.

This is not natural, there is no scientific or logical explanation for this. Damn, I stepped in dog poo... Okay ill try to not stray from subject. The number of meteors are rising, appearing out of thin air... except that there's no air in space.  I refuse to believe this is natural, it just can't be.  Jurassick Park makes more sense than this...

"Shane! Stop daydreaming and actually clean the poo instead of walking in it!" Eh, my dad yells at me a lot. I put the last bit of poo in the bucked and dump it off into the ravine. Yes, I have a ravine in my backyard, pretty cool eh?
