Beyond All Part 1 ( The Searches)

Chapter 28

Back On Track

" Well, that could've gone better. I can't believe we lost six guys against a group of three. It was because of that stupid poison. Speaking of which, how was everyone feeling? They have a medical wing in this ship. Maybe they have something there that can detect poison," Uvam said.

"We'll get right on that sir. Should we report about finding the one with the Vim Deorum ability?" A cultist asked.

" We destroyed their ship and most of their supplies along with it. The chances of them getting off of, or even surviving on that planet are slim to none. Still, best not to take any chances, I suppose. You got pictures of them, right?"

" We did."

" Good. Can one of you do me a favor and send the report then? The rest of you, steer the ship to our next destination. I'll give Novacula a call. I Wonder how his mission is coming along?"

Upon trying to contact him, Uvam's call didn't go through.

" Huh. His phone must be off. Should I leave him a message? nah, he'll know to get back to me when sees I've called," He thought, pocketing his phone.

He thought about taking a nap. But, upon stretching and yawning, a stinging sensation shot through his neck.

" Tch. That gator bastard bit me harder than I thought. I knew I should've used more of my outer energy. Better get this wound taken care of then."

As he was about to head to the hospital wing, he felt his phone vibrate.

The Tablet's Secret

" Allen, it's okay. We'll find a way off this Planet!" Jack said.

" Jack, you know I like ya. But, how in the fuck do you expect us to get out of here? In case you haven't noticed, our ship was destroyed! And with the few supplies that didn't get destroyed, we'll be lucky if we survive a week out here! Not to mention, this planet doesn't exactly have a good environment for a lion rhino! Acronu won't last as long as we will out here!"

" We can't let him die! There has to be a way out of here! Wait, it won't take long for that poison to dissipate, right? Maybe we can find more metal. Then use it to build ourselves a ship."

" Two things wrong with that. One, that could take months. Two, which I feel is the more important reason, neither of us knows how to build a ship!"

" I'm just trying to think of something! We can't just give up and die here!"

" I know that. And, I haven't given up. I'm just not sure how we're gettin off this place."

" We could head back inside when the poison clears out. At the very least, we could see if we can find some food that hasn't been tainted. Or, do you think we may find something else if we walk far enough? Like another cave or something?"

" Doubtful. You basically stumbled across this cave. The chances of us findin another one, are minimal at best. Then again, probably ain't gonna do us much good, just standin here. I s'pose we could take a look at the supplies we got left. Then take them with us."

They took a look at the supplies they had left. What they had left was one week's supply of food and water. And thermal suits that would help in the event of a massive temperature drop.

" At least we won't freeze to death," Jack said.

" Lucky us. Before we get goin, I think we should head back inside. I remember seeing wagon type objects. We can use them to pull the crates."

" Good idea. But, before we head in, Why don't we have something to eat? I don't think I've eaten since we've been here."

" Fine. But, don't gorge yourself, we want to make the stuff last as long as possible."
