Living With Little Gasters

Chapter 1 (The Void)

It was an another normal day for the Gasters in the emptiness of the void. Swap was going around the house cleaning and humming along to a cute little tune he knew. B was relaxing quietly on the couch next to fell, who was watching TV (lol don't ask me how tv works in the void cause idk, whatever 😑) Stars and Wing Ding were nowhere to be seen, probably off doing something to do with Science.

It was a particularly boring day. Everyone was in a pretty nice state of relaxation when suddenly there was loud banging and shouting, causing the three chilled out Gasters to jump up. "T-that sounded like Wing-Ding and Stars!" Swap yelled worry written all over his features. The three gasters rushed to the room where the other two had been working, swap pulling B by the arm. Fell kicked the door so hard it was a wonder that it hadn't flown off its hinges. "What the hell is going in here!" Fell yelled trying not to sound worried.

The two gasters turned to their friends but said nothing, they just stared. After a while Wing-Ding cleared his throat, "we need to talk, it is very important" he stated calmly. They all nodded and walked back to the living room in silence. Once all 3 curious gasters were seated Stars and WD both took in a deep breath. "We......." Stars began but his voice trailed off, not sure how to put the news into words. "We think we have found a way out" Wing-Ding finished.

"Out! Like out of the void out!?" Swap questioned, "yes, we've even managed to open a small portal together. All of us together could be enough to free us" Stars replied. "Well that's amazing!" Swap cheered happily. The other two gasters hadn't moved they both had expressions of shock and disbelief plastered across their faces. "I wouldn't cheer just yet Swap......we still aren't one hundred percent sure it will work and even if we were, we don't know if it's safe enough." WD explained, he seemed to be deep in thought. "Yes, and even if we're sure about both of those things there's no telling for sure where we would end up." Stars added. "if we had more technology we could run more tests and possibly even chose where we would end up but those recourses are just not available to us in the void" he continued.

There was an unsettling silence for a while...... suddenly Fell stood up "I think we should do it" he said. "What?" They all replied in unison. "We should do it, if there's even the smallest chance we could end up somewhere else we should do it." He explained. "B-but Fell, who knows where we'll end up!" Swap said. "Well Stars said it himself, that's not gonna change. We need more resources and we sure as hell ain't gonna get that as long as we're here." He began "even if we end up in some strange world, then at least we'll know it works, and if we get to a different universe Wing-ding and Stars will probably be able to find the things we need to be able to build something that will show us where we'll end up."

He did have a point....
"Hmmmm.....and there is a chance we could end up in at least one of our own worlds....or at least something like it right WD?" Swap added looking to Wing-Ding and Stars. "Well yes that is a possibility, in fact if everything went according to plan it would be the highest likelihood that we would end up in a world at least somewhat like ours...... and Fell is right, no matter where we would end up the resources there would be a significant step up from what we have now. WD said "Although all that put aside we're still not certain that it is safe, we could be seriously weakened or hurt by the affects and We're not exactly in perfect healthy conditions, B especially." He finished looking to B who was staring down at the floor.

"B, are you ok?" Swap asked nervously. "Fells' right, we should try....we have to try" he muttered in response. "But B what about-" Swap was cut off by B "that doesn't matter, for the fist time in a long time there's a chance we could all get home to our friends.....to our families. They need us, and we all need and miss them."

WD sighed, well then we'll try....if we all agree to it. All of us, together....... all the gasters nodded there heads in agreement,
then it's settled.
