Year 2112
Today was a great day I finally was going to start my first official mission at the World Organization for Search for Habitable Planets (Heh, WOSHP) and I was going to be the first human in the world to start this project called "REBOOT" (Funny since we were going to restart the life in the worlds I find)
-3...2...1... IGNITION.- That voice from my brother Steve who was outside the spaceship said launching me to the space, as an astronaut I felt really happy with myself those first seconds but some seconds later something was beginning to bug in the back on my mind...
What if I never come back?
What if I never see my family again?
What if the Earth as I knew it disappeared?
Would I die alone here? In the vastness of the infinite space, waiting for the day of my death to come?
All those questions were floating in my mind in the same moment I left the atmosphere...
-(Static)Here Platinum Needle to Golden String, do you copy?- That voice from the radio drag me out from my mind and I reacted quickly.
-Here Golden String to Platinum Needle I hear you loud and clear.-
It was about time to enter light speed and explore the universe for some years, I was ready and willing to discover new planets or accept the fact that we need to have another route to try again.
Three years later not so much happened, I found some planets but just two of them were habitable, one was without sign of life on it but with atmosphere and all the needs for a human and the other one was kind of weird since this planet was all cubic... Trees, food, animals, damn even the clouds were cubes and I swear that sounds like one of those 2012's games or somewhere near that year... After living on them some days I finally resumed with my long trip until something went wrong...
-Uh... Golden... St... We... Signal... You!-
That didn't sound fine...
-Platinum Needle do you copy?- I waited for minutes that felt like hours and decided to ask again.
-Platinum needle do you copy?- I prayed that nothing bad was happening but it sure didn't work... I waited for seconds, minutes, hours, days and even weeks for someone to speak through the other side of my radio and something finally happened...
-(Static) Uh... Joe ... Do you still copy?- It finally worked again I was very relieved but something didn't sound good...
-Steve? What's happening?- I asked worried.
-I'm sorry to say this... We lost your signal... We can't bring you home...- My biggest fear... Came true.
-... Steve... Please do me a favor...-
-Yeah bro?-
-Tell mom and dad I love em' and take care... Over...-
I lost track of time since the day I lost signal with everything... I was alone in the darkness of the space, with no one around me, with nothing to do, with nobody to talk with... Only with a small photo of my family that I ever had in my backpack and I slowly was running out of food and water, it couldn't get worse... Or so I thought...
-EMERGENCY EMERGENCY! ROCKET TANK OF GASOLINE IS EMPTY AND SEVERAL ASTEROIDS WERE DETECTED!-
-Ah shit...-
After several damage to the ship I couldn't do anything I could just lay and wait for some miracle to happen or just give everything up and jump out of the ship to die... I couldn't choose either because I didn't notice I was going to crash into a planet... I just closed my eyes and let the ship crash... I didn't care anymore nor I cared about myself I lost hope and sincerely I didn't gave a shit whether or not I survived the impact... I just wanted to go home... I waited for the crash... And I woke up from the ground...
