Pawblo's Story (Final Space AU)

Chapter 4: The Galaxy One

The following events were a blur.

They happened so fast, I didn't even know it was happening for a bit.

Probably because I was half knocked out.

All you need to know is that I met the Lord Commander in his throne room.

This small guy, right here.

I also met Avocato's friend, Gary. He seemed cool, and a little annoying but still. If he's with Avocato, I'm fine with it.

You know what I'm not fine with?

The Lord Commander ripping off Gary's arm, blood spilling everywhere and me throwing up multiple times.

And now here we are to the present, where we're being chased by the guards.

"Oh, man! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!", I kept yelling.

"We're not going to die! All we need to do is head back to the ship before my head explodes!", Gary yelled back.

"Wait, what?!?"

"Don't question it!"

We ran into an abandoned building, where we waited for the guards to lose our sight.

That building happened to be my current residence.

"Wait, you live here?"

"Well, yeah. It's been rough."

Avocato butted into our conversation. "If you ask me, Pawblo, you should pack your things and come with us."

"Yes, another roommate!"

"Wait, what? Why?", I asked?

"Because they recognize any face. The Lord Commander will look for you whether you're here or somewhere else. They will kill you."

I wanted to say something flirty in response, but he had a serious point. Maybe if I went with them, I would be safer? I've always wanted to travel the galaxy.

I nodded and ran in to my room. I grabbed a backpack I kept in my closet and packed whatever I could fit. My inventions, my tape player, clothes, my journal, and this old video game system I found lying around a junkyard once.

I ran back to the others ad they were waiting for me.

"You got everything?"

"Yeah, let's go."

We walked out of the building and ran down an alley. Sadly, we were spotted.

"RUN!"

The three of us kept running, Avocato shooting at them while we made a run for it. So brave, I thought. He's risking his life for us!

We then reached a dead end, as we were near an edge.

"Guys, we gotta jump!"

"What?! Are you crazy?!?"

"I am crazy. Totally crazy."

He then grabbed both of our hands and dragged us off the balcony.

And we did not make it. To another platform, not implying that we died.

We didn't make it to another platform, and we ended up falling.

We threw up as we fell, landed on a windshield, only to fall again straight towards two plasma cannons.

"I DONT WANT TO DIIIIEEE!!!!"

"HUG!"

"What?!?"

"GROUP HUG! GROUP HUUUUUG!!"

We all then huddled and we fell through a hole, ending up outside Tera Con Prime, as the planet began to....explode? I couldn't tell, as we were drifting farther and farther away from the planet.

Avocato pressed a button on his wrist and we were sealed up in a round shield.

"It's okay, we can breathe now."

Good, I was holding my breath.

We were all huddled together in silence for a bit.

I soon realized that my hand was gripping Avocato's hand tightly.

I suddenly started blushing.

Okay......totally not happy about this, heh, I thought.

Gary pressed a button on his wrist and yelled, "H.U.E! PICK US UP!"

1 hour later....

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a huge spaceship comes out of nowhere.

"SWEET MOTHER OF CRAP!", I yelled.

"Relax, it's just our ship."

The ship opens the hatch and soon scoops us of the depths of space.

Inside the ship, I finally get a moment to take a breather.

I looked around in awe, as the inside of their ship looked really nice.

"So....this yours?", I asked Avocato.

"Oh, no, it's Gary's. He's serving a prison sentence right now."

"Wait, what?"

It's official.

Gary and Avocato are awesome.
