BELTS: Homestretch

BELTS is a story made by me, Doorslam, about a group of characters working together in an intergalactic society. The story starts off with Uzo, but before anything else, I wrote a little prologue to the prologue below. It mentions some of the main cast of characters, so remember those names. Enjoy!

Tape begin.

So, uh, nothing much different from yesterday. We're still stuck here on Saul, absolutely no fuel left and a lack of food. People have started taking more than they're supposed to each day and stashing it away in their bunks. I've been thinking about bringing this up to Krisus, but I know she won't like it...

Lately, Bitmap hasn't been doing so well. He's been thinking a lot about his family and how they're doing on Insekka. It's taken him about three years, but I think he's finally gotten homesick. Grengi said that if there's no signals for the next few days and we finally get back up into space, we'll have some time to drop him off for a little while so Bit can see his family again. It didn't make him feel any better, I guess- He's still super uneasy about this mission's turnout. It hurts to see him like this. He's been through a lot.

Helms, Sayn and Mælroy have been spending an increased amount of time in the city ruins recently. They said that there's an energy source powerful enough in there to get the ship's thrusters running again. They've been picking up traces of it, but can't seem to locate it and bring it back. Obu's still unconscious from the blast, and on top of taking care of her, I've been working with the other engineers to get everything ready for the new power source.

While I don't know how long this will all take, it should be over soon. The days aren't getting any longer for our sake and I feel like we may be running out of time for our mission. I'm not going to give up now, though. I didn't come here for that.

Until tomorrow...
Uzo. Signing out.
