"All hands on deck now!" Captain Amelia orders. "Aye caption!" Arrow instructed everyone to get to their stations. "Make sure your life lines are secured properly!" The entire crew tied their life lines to them tightly before tending to the sails, that were being blasted by the flaming rocks hurling through them. Y/n jumps down from one of the sails, suddenly something catches her eye. "Captain! The Star!" She yells out while jumping down from a ledge. Amelia and Doppler looks back at the exploding star. "It's devolving into a black hole!" Doppler gasps. "We'll be pulled in!" Amelia took hold of the wheel and tried to steer it away from the waves. "Blast these waves! They're so deucedly erratic!" She hisses.

"No captain!" Doppler looks at the radar. "They're not erratic at all! There will be one more in 47.2 seconds! Followed by the biggest one of them all!" Amelia's ears perked up. "That's it! Brilliant, Doctor! We'll ride that last wave out of here!" Arrow ran up to them. "All sails have been secured!" He says. "Good man, now, release them immediately!" Amelia orders. "...Aye, Captain." Arrow hesitates. "You heard her me, open those sails!" He tells the crew, who were annoyed by the sudden order. "Mr. Hawkins! Make sure those life lines are good and tight!" Amelia commands. "Aye captain!" Jim said as he ran over to where the crew's lifelines were tightened. He make sure each one was tight so no one would float off into the depths of space.

"Captain! Here comes the last wave!" Doppler warns her. "Hold onto your lifelines gentlemen!" Amelia says before tightening her grip on the wheel. During the confusion, Arrow had fell from the ship, only to be saved by his lifeline. Scroop then took that chance to use his sharp pincer to cut the rope, sending Arrow to his death. The ship was pulled further into the black hole, everything went dark, before a giant wave send the ship flying out of the black hole and back into orbit. The crew all cheers as they were all free from the dangerous black hole. "Captain! That was-oh my goodness-" Doppler was at a loss for words.

"Oh tish-tosh." Amelia cuts him off. "Actually, Doctor, your astronomical advice was most helpful." She compliments. "Well, I have a lot of help to offer anatomically-amanamonically-as-astronomically." Doppler facepalms. "All hands accountable, Mr. Arrow?" Amelia asks. There was no response. "Mr. Arrow?" She looks around for her second in command. Scroop walked up to her, Arrow's hat in his pincers. "I'm sorry Captain, I'm afraid his lifeline...was not secured." He said in fake sadness. Amelia took the hat slowly, heart broken. "What?" Jim mutters. "No, I checked them all!" He rubs over to the lifelines, Arrow's was not there. "I checked them all..."

Y/n couldn't help but feel bad for him, yet, she had a feeling that something was off. Why of all people, was Scroop the one to find Arrow's hat? Amelia sighs before holding Arrow's hat close to her. "Mr. Arrow, was a fine spacer...finer, than anyone of us could ever hope to be." She cleared her throat. "But he knew the risks, as do we all. Resume your posts, all of you." She turned away from the crew and goes back to her office.
