Gemma's POV
I had recieved my letter from NASA for my next time to go out to The international space-station, 2 days away! I have worked with NASA for almost 20 years now and it was a big decission to make, go to university or work for NASA.

Well its time to go, its my longest mission so far and i really dont want to leave my family, i walked out the door but turned to say bye to my family " Now Scott i'm leaving you in charge, okay wee man" he nodded " yeh mum!" i laughed, he was only 9. I turned to Jessica, she was 17 and was starting her last year at school in a month " Now you, misses dont be stubburn and NO! parties and look after the car, a single scratch and your dead!" she rolled her eyes" i wont, i dont know how many times i told you, its gonna be fine! its just a car" " a very expensive car!" i added, i gave her a hug and i turned to the person who was possibley more hurt of me going than anyone" i love you!" i said " i know you do, dont get hurt" "i wont" she gave me a hug" i'll miss you" she said " i'll be fine mads no need to worry" she nodded" can't help it" she now had tears in her eyes, i wiped them of and gave a sympathetic smile" i love you!" " love you to!" i gave her a kiss and walked down the drive to the van waiting for me, i sat in my seat and waved at them out of the window.
3 months later
Maddy's POV
Its been 3 months since Gemma went and normally she would be back but she has to be away for 8 months, the longest she has been away is 4 months and that was because the shutle to take them back was being fixed.
I was sitting in the staff room of the school i worked at when the two physic teachers came in and switched the TV on.
" This just in, The International-space station has been reported to have had an explosion in the west wing causeing loss of communication with mission control and the Russian satalite.Mission control are trying to gain contact but are unsuccesfu!..."
No,no,no Gemma, one of the english teachers walked over to the men and slapped them over the head with her paper" you bunch of idiots" she said while pointing to me, they turned around and had a look of shock on their faces" sorry, Mads we didn't think" i nodded. I pulled my phone out and dialed Gemma's number in the hopes she would answer.She didn't. I tried afew times and there was still nothing. I was interupted by the bell going meaning i needed to go to class.
" Mission control have had a connection with the sapce-station and we are lucky to get a snip for you..
" MISSION CONTROL, THIS IS THE INTERNATIONAL SPACE-STATION, EXPEDITION 2697C DO YOU COPY OVER"
" THIS IS MISSION CONTROL WHAT IS YOUR STATUS,OVER"
" LOOSING OXYGEN FAST, NO POWER AND ONE CASULTY, PRESUMABLY DEAD!, OVER"
" ALRIGHT, GET IN YOUR SUITS AND GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE!,OVER"
"ALREADY ON IT,....TELL MY WIFE I LOVE HER,OVER"
"At that point mission control lost conection with the space-station and they have, as we know had no more contact with them. We have no idea who the casulty is but NASA have confirmed that the blast would have killed them and without the oxygen they would be dead!...."
