One year later-also this is gonna be a bit of a long chapter
Katies POV
"Galaxy Garrison flight log 5-11-14, begin the descent to Kerberos for a rescue mission," our pilot said turning the ship down. As she did so the ship shook causing my good friend Honey to gag. "Layne can you keep this thing straight." "Relax Honey, I'm just getting a feel for the stick. It's not like I did this..."Lanye then violently dipped the ship a then returning to the regular position " or this!" turning sharply. "Ugh, unless you wanna wipe beef stroganoff out of all the nook and crannies of this thing you better knock it off!" My screen flashed " We picked up a distress beacon." I notified Layne "All right, look alive, team! Katie track coordinates" "copy" I confirmed and proceeded with hearing Layne and Honey argue.

"Knock it off, Layne! Please." When she finished her sentence her computer started beeping in an alert. " This one is on you, buddy. We've got a hydraulic stabilizer out." As quickly as Lanie finished, Honey started to effort to repair. "Layne, I lost contact. The trembling is interfering with our sensors" I said looking up from my screen. "Come on, Honey!" Layne declared to the engineer still attempting to hold her food in. "It's not responding." Again Layne's screen blinked. "Thar she blows. Preparing for an approach on visual." She's crazy I thought to myself "Uhh... I don't think that's advisable with our current mechanical and gastrointestinal issues" I looked back just a bit seeing Honey over the main gear- I don't know what that thing is called, she looked like she was about to but she held it inside agreeing with me. "Stop worrying. This baby can take it, can't you champ?"Layne started to which the ship reacted with a violent shake. "See? She was nodding. She was nodding. Katie, hail down to them and let them know their ride is here."

   After unbuckling I pulled up the intercom notifying  "Attention lunar vessel-" only to be knocked down by another shake.  "What are you doing?! Buckle your belt and Honey stop that shaking!" "I'm tr- oh no." Honey leaned over into the gear compartment a began to hurl.  I grabbed the com ok let's try this again "Attention lunar vessel this is Galaxy Garrison Rescue Craft One Victor Six Three Tango." I said over the comm "Arriving in for landing and extraction, " I looked up to Lanie and spoke in a cold tone "against crew recommendations".

  Layne just rolled her eyes moved her attention back to the main controls "No time for your mutinous comments now. They're going under and we're going in." She gave a determined look as she dipped the ship.  I looked up from my screen seeing an obstacle "Look out for that overhang!!" Layne only looked back at me and said "No worries. My first year in flight school, you know what people called me? They called me 'the tailor' because of how I thread the needle."  She began to turn us in a barrel roll type way.  Honey and I began to scream but all I heard Layne mutter to herself "Come around, come on, come on, come on!"
BOOM
   Honey spoke up "We lost a wing!"  All of the computers beeped loudly as we leaned before we hit I heard Layne mumbled irritated "Oh, man." 

   Then I heard the 'ship' make a loud crash before a screen showed up Simulation Failed the robotic voice spoke.

   "Nice job, Tailor" when I finished my sentence I heard the simulator door open.  Ugh, not now.  I heard Iverson's voice cut through the atmosphere "Roll out, donkeys!" As we all got out we lined up in front of Iverson. She said announced loudly" Let's see if we can't use the complete failure as a lesson for the rest of your students. Can anyone tell me the mistakes these three so-called cadets made in the simulator?" her voice echoed through the white room. We all looked down embarrassed as many other students pointed out our mistakes "The engineer puked in the main gearbox." one girl spoke up earning a response from Iverson "Yes. As everyone knows, vomit is not an approved lubricant for engine systems." She said glaring at Honey, who just looked away as Iverson continued "What else?" "The comm spec removed her safety harness" another student states "The pilot crashed!" someone else added. I saw Layne bite her lip and keep her head down.
