The beautiful stars were shining in the night. "Wow, so this is space, it's more beautiful than I imagined." said my companion, Cane. Beads of sweat were dropping down my face. "You know, Martinez, not many people survive." It was what worried me the most at this point. A beautiful brunette with the most intriguing brown eyes approched us, her name, Astronaut Freeman. "You boys ready?" "Oh yeah" I shrugged my shoulders "I'm no pussy." Boy was I lying, I was afraid of death. The last astronaut, a taller African-American man with short coiled hair and a well trimmed beard. "Astronaut Jackson, you ready?" Cane said. "I hope you know we signed up for this and we can't get out of this, hell yeah I'm ready" He grinned. There we waited, the four of us traveling the never ending space. Who knew what was out there? Nobody knew. We had to figure that out, it was our mission.
