THIRD POV
It's the year 2017, Far out in space, there was a spaceship named "Ship F-20" carrying 500,000 creatures, named "Humans".
These creatures has been searching far and wide for an suitable planet to live on, as their previous planet was invaded by the unknown. Their only hope is to find a planet where they are suitable to live. Ship F-20 is one of the surviving Human Evacuation Ships (HES) to able to take off during the invasion. Total ships made is 50,000 worldwide, fitting 500,000 in 1 ship... But the total ships that made it out of the planet we're not even close to 1,000 ships, not even 500, but 61 ships left, leaving only 30,500,000 Humans left.
As Human Evacuation Ships gather and fly in a group, Ship F-20 was a special one is they have a special kind of Captain. Each ship has atleast 3 Captains, but this ship can live with just 1.
As their ship is the first to take off, they lead the way for all other ships.
Kyler Hurdel, 26 years old, Captain of Ship F-20. He has been trying to find a suitable planet for 4 years for his people. He is sitting there, in his desk, admiring a photo of him and his parents, causing him to tear a little. He stood up, and walked out of his office. He was greeted by his fellow people as he is their hope in finding a planet to live. He was worried about the futures ahead, not knowing about what would happen next.
As he is heading to his sleeping quarters, he came upon his 2 apprentices. Alan Blerham, his nephew, 15 years old, wearing his plain white jacket and pants with cyan stripes, leaning into the wall next to his friend, Lia Sander, a charming girl, 17 years old, wearing the same dress as Alan, looked at Kyler as he is walking upon them.
"H-Hello, Captain!" Lia greeted.
"Shouldn't you be sleeping by now as I told you two?" Kyler replied.
"Yeah, about that..." Alan scoffed "I was having second thoughts."
"What do you mean by that?" Kyler questioned.
"I mean, you are treating us like kids! We rarely have things to do, because you are not even giving us things to do!" Alan stated.
"One, you two ARE kids. And two, you will be exhausted before doing what I'd tell you to do." Kyler replied, followed by Lia's chuckle.
"Haha, very funny." Alan grunted "But the point still stands!" He said.
Kyler smiled "You are the future of Human civilization, you will be just like me. You have to save our people from extinction if I am not beside you anymore."
Lia jokingly said "Why not me? I am clearly older than him!"
"It doesn't mean you are older means I have no right to be Captain!" Alan replied.
The three laughed and head into their designated sleeping quarters.
During their walk, Lia noticed her Captain looking down, sad. It worried her, since he is the only person in this ship who has the experience towards space travel. As they are walking, Lia decided to speak up and ask Kyler. She inhaled and exhaled before asking-.
"Captain, everything alright?" Lia questioned Kyler, causing Alan to look at him as well.
Kyler was unable to reply, but stated "Yes, everything is alright. It's just that... I just wanted everyone to live happily, and not suffer as much as I did back in my days. Not everyone has a happy past."
Lia and Alan grew curious after he stated 'and not suffer as much as I did back in my days', causing Alan to question Kyler.
"What happened?" Alan questioned.
"You know, some stuff." Kyler replied quickly.
"What kind of "stuff"?" Alan replied.
"You know, life problems and stuff." Kyler stated.
Lia grew more suspicious, but dropped the suspicion as they stopped in a interchange of pathways.
"Well, I guess we three should get some shut eye." Kyler stated to them.
They said their good nights, and went off in their own path. Kyler went to the Left and Lia and Alan went into the Right.
Kyler arrived at his sleeping quarters as he finds himself in a room with a king sized bed, facing towards a flat screen TV. He took off his uniform and wore a plain white t-shirt, gray pants, and some flipflops. As he took a look at a mirror, he admired a scar at the back of his right shoulder. It was a scar given by the invasion itself, causing him to look back and remember the events of the invasion. He was devastated of the happenings, he remembered that he shouted-
THE INVASION, 10 YEARS AGO
KYLER'S POV
Everything was on fire, people shouting, unknown space ships landing into the surface.
"Dad, what's happening!?" I cried, as I hugged Dad closely.
"Son! We have to get to the ship!" Dad shouted. As he holds my hand, we went outside and sprinted to the nearest ship possible.
As I sprinted, I examined our surroundings, people lying dead on the ground due to debris, some we're injured, some cried for help. It was hell.
Me and my Dad suddenly jumped as an explosion went off in our right. We sprinted as fast as we can. But, we we're about to be shot at, a silhouette of a Fox, who's left eye was shining red, with blaster hands pointing at us while we sprinted.
"Dad!" I shouted "Someone is gonna shoot us!"
Dad looked at the direction of where I'm pointing. As he looked, the Fox's blasters was lighting up.
"Son! Be strong!" Dad shouted, leaving me curious. We were close to a car, strong enough to be a shield, but I feel like we couldn't make it as I heard a Lazer went off behind my back.
"Son, jump!" Dad and I jumped behind the car, right before the Lazer ricochet off the ground.
Fortunately, we weren't hurt. We went back into sprinting as that red eyed Fox was recharging his blaster.
"GET THEM BEFORE THEY OUTRUN US!" said the Fox, as hundreds of suited creatures chasing us.
We we're few blocks away from the nearest ship. "HELP US!" Dad shouted repeatedly until 2 body armoured human soldiers look in shock as they faced us behind a swarm of suited beings.
One of the Soldiers was running towards us, and one calling in a walkie talky, as I think was backup.
"DUCK!" the running soldier shouted and readies his lazer gun. Dad and I ducked as low as possible, covering my ears as flashes of light seemed to appear.
After the flashes stopped. I felt a grip in my left arm, I looked up and its being held up my the soldier.
He removed his mask, as he reveals his scars in his face."Come! Follow me!"
as he guarded our surroundings.
We quickly sprinted towards the ship's entrance.
All seems going well I though to myself, but It seems unlikely.
A swarm of suited creatures followed us, leaving the Human soldier shooting them one by one. "SIR!" the soldier shouted to my dad, "HERE TAKE THIS!" He stated as he threw a lazer pistol to my Dad. I knew that my Dad took gun lessons secretly. Dad began shooting as we backed up towards the ship. I stayed close to my Dad as possible.
Unfortunately, the soldier shouted "SHIT!" angrily as his lazer gun ran out of fuel. We has to run as we are close enough to refuel his lazer gun. But we heard some static communication from the helmet of the soldier "BACKUP IS HEADING YOUR WAY NOW, UNIT-80991. OVER". As I looked back and see about 19 to 21 backups rushing towards us for assistance.
Dad's pistol wasn't strong enough but was injuring the enemies. But this caused an unfortunate happening, I suited creature was near enough to grab me with its... hand? and pulled me away from my dad. The creature was holding me like theres no tomorrow and shouted "You're coming with me, kid!", as Dad shoots it directly in it's head. Dad punched his way through to reach me as he put my head in his hands, I felt weak. A group of suited human soldiers came and assist.
"SON! ARE YOU OK?!" Dad shouted pantingly as I was a little traumatized about what happened.
"Dad, I think I'm- I'm losing m- my vision." as I slowly loss consciousness.
The last thing I remember hearing was a female medic saying… "Knife…poison…death."
After that incident, I feel numb, I see nothing but a void. I feel lost, and stuck.
I am scared, I might have died after I lost consciousness. I don't want go die now! I quickly tried to move, but it's like being strapped in a bad.
but I slowly gained consciousness, as my vision started taking information in where I am. I am at a bed, a hospital bed to be exact, guessing that I am inside the ship as well. I couldn't move, but I could feel the bed, hear, smell, and see. I started panicking as I thought I could never speak and move ever again, but I was wrong. Suddenly, my index finger moved slowly, next is my middle finger then my ring finger, and then my left arm, and so on. I started trying to lift myself up, but I began whining a bit in pain as my arms are having difficulty in carrying my own weight. I am scared about what about to happen,even if It's good or bad, I am unsure about the future ahead.
I jumped a little as I heard the room door opened, seeing a Doctor, then my Dad.
"Kyler!" Dad shouted, ran and gave me a tight hug.
"Ow, ow, ow. Dad, I am in pain." I painly cried, It feels like 1000 needles poking me at the same time.
"Sorry." Dad let me go and was relieved that I am awake.
The Doctor took a step forward and said "I am Dr. Leo Nermann, I was informed that you we're poisoned by a poison tipped knife and I requested that I will take it into my own hands and look after you while you are recovering."
From my perspective, he's huge! He has a robotic right arm, looks so cool!
"So, Dr. Leo. What was the poison used in the knife?" Dad asked.
"We aren't sure what It is yet, but It is taken care off." Dr. Leo exclaimed, and continued "You are actually pretty strong, and actually took the poison like a real man. The wound is not that deep, it just scratched you. Your immunity was strong enough that you are not even mentally and physically affected."
"Wait, that means I can go now?" Kyler exclaimed ecstatically.
"Stay here for about 2 Hours and you will be released." Dr. Leo stated.
"Thanks for all your help, Doc!" Dad thanked Dr. Leo, shaking his metal hand.
"No problem, just call me when you need help." Dr. Leo stated, and silence... then I spoke up.
"How long was I out, Doc?" I questioned.
"About... 1 Hour after the incident." Dr. Leo replied.
"Well, Thanks for curing me." I thanked.
"No, no. Don't thank me. Thank the medics that kept you alive while your unconscious." Dr. Leo stated.
"May I talk to my son privately?" Dad requested Dr. Leo.
"You may." He answered as he exited the room. Leaving me and Dad in silent, and I decided to speak up.
"Dad, I'm scared." I said, crying slowly and continued "What happens If they invade us again?"
Dad looked at me in pure shock, not knowing what to say decided to reply "Son, don't worry. You are safe in this Ship. It is heavily guarded and full of elite soldiers, and I am with you through this, no matter what." as he hugs me again.
"Dad" I said, leaving dad looking at me… smiling, and I continued "My back hurts from your hug."
"Oops, sorry son. I couldn't bare myself that we will be safe, away from those creatures." He replied.
"Dad, thanks for everything." I stated, leaving Dad to reply "You ARE my everything, son."
PRESENT, KYLER'S POV
I am pretty thankful about what Dad have done, and I'm bringing this as a souvenir through out my life.
I started to brew and drink some coffee to refuel. Brushed my teeth, and finishing my final paperwork.
After that, I lied down into my bed, and tried to get comfy, and turned on the TV to see what's up.
This TV picks up all channels within the universe, and it's really radioactive TV when It was first introduced in 2003 but it became less radioactive after 2015's Space Exploration Expo. To be honest, I was surprised that technology is advanced already.
As I change the TV's channel over a minute, I came upon a channel that it named... "ZNN" which is similar to "CNN" in where I came from. I chuckled as it we're a joke.
The ZNN reporters was a female panther and moose, talking about... something. As I assumed that the Z in ZNN is Zoo...
I really love animals as a kid, I used to have a pet gold fish... well, I used to.
I wonder if animals live in that planet, and humans are non existent.
"Good news! The night howler incident is finally over, as Officer Judy Hopps and an Fox discovered the villainous crime committed by Bellweather" said by the female panther.
I quickly changed the channel as I have no idea what they are even talking about. Night howlers? What even are those...
A sudden knock on the door, causing me to react and turned the TV off. As I quietly sneak forward into the front door.
"Captain! Are you there? Hello?" a voice shouted, knocking more consistently than earlier
I looked into the door viewer and saw Lia, dressed in her sleeping ware.
I was about to open the door but has second thoughts. "GO AWAY, I'M NOT HOME." I jokingly shouted. Leaving Lia chuckling.
"We have an emergency, but it's not fatal. We just need your permission." Lia replied and continued, "We detected a planet that is suitable for us to live a couple of light years away but th-"
I immediately opened my door wearing my uniform instantly and ecstatically said "WHAT ARE WE WAITING FO- wait, how do you know that?" I doubted "You don't even have a Key Card for the Control Room."
"Well, Let's just say I have a friend who gave me one." She slowly exclaimed.
"Sigh, it was Admiral Matthew, isn't it?" I protested.
"That man never stops giving you stuff, doesn't he?" I stated and continued "Come on, let's go to the Control Room. And, thanks for saying that there was an emergency. But, what was the emergency?" I asked as we walk to the Control Room.
"Oh, Colonel Juel asked if I can ask you if we can go hyperspeed." Lia said and continued "and sorry if we disturb your sleep." as she look down, feeling sorry.
"Don't worry about it, I didn't even slept. So there's no point in apologizing." I exclaimed. But Lia wasn't happy that she disturbed the only free time I have, since I work five times longer than her and Alan. I decided to come up with a joke.
"Hey, why does the chicken cross the road?"
I asked Lia, as she grunted "Ugh, I heard this joke a thousand times... Why?"
"To get to the idiots house." I stated, leaving Lia dumbfounded. "What?" She asked.
"Knock knock." I said, with Lia asking..."Who's there?". I replied with "The Chicken.", I chuckled as Lia didn't get the joke... but seconds later, she got the joke a gave me a punch in the arm.
"Ow. Lia, why would you do that?" I jokingly asked. "You think that is funny!?" she smiled while trying to look upset.
"Whaaaat? I don't think It was a joke." I stated.
"After this, let's see who's the idiot now!" She replied, following with a light punch in the arm.
"Do Alan know about this? About the planet?" I asked.
"No, Alan is one of the heaviest sleepers in the known universe." She chuckled as she said.
"Welp, we have to let him sleep." I stated, followed by a awkward silence.
As I was about to say something, Lia interrupted. "Um, Captain?" she slowly exclaimed.
"Yeah?" I stated.
"This planet that we detected..." She stated, I nodded her to continue. "It is already habilitated."
Leaving my in shock, leaving me thinking about what to do. Fingers on my chin, trying to make a solution without hurting anyone. Lia spoke up.
"I suppose we should befriend the creatures in the planet." Lia proposed.
"Well, It's not a bad idea, but the risk is very high. Who knows what they are." I stated.
"Well, we could send a small drone to inspect the planet." Lia also proposed, which made me proud on what she proposes. She may become a great captain one day.
As we arrived in the front door of the Control Room. We we're greeted by 4 Suited Soldiers who guards the Control Room's front entrance.
"Greetings, Captain Kyler Hurdel and Apprentice Captain Lia Sander!" they shouted as they saluted us.
Lia was flattered as I could really tell from her body motion and facial expression.
As we entered the Control Room, there we're a bunch of buttons, a lot of screens, and 3 People currently in the main control panel of the ship.
A Person turned and looked at me and shouted "Greetings, Capta-"
"Okay, I had enough greetings for 1 minute." I interrupted.
"Err, sorry." He said, as he is Colonel Juel, an old friend who helped me through out the journey of studying space travel, wearing a black trench coat and some black pants to fit into the "black" theme.
Next to him is Admiral Matthew, who is currently wearing an headset listening to any dangers ahead, not even properly dressed, wearing a Blue jacket, and some denim shorts. I can't see why he wears it but its not illegal.
And lastly, Major Rev, he is currently piloting the ship, also wearing an headset, wearing a black trench coat and black pants, the same as Juel's.
"Greetings, Kyler." said Major Rev as he didn't even face him to keep an eye on the yoke (steering wheel) of the ship. Leaving me surprised that he can sense my presence.
"Hey, what's up Kyler!" greeted Admiral Matthew, holding up a high five and continued "C'mon, don't leave me hangin!"
"I suppose I will hang your Admiral rank out of your life." I replied, leaving Lia chuckling and Matthew dumbfounded, as I continued "Matt, where's your uniform?"
"Whaaat? I just woke up a couple of minutes ago. We are at a private sector as well you know?" Matthew protested.
"Yeah, yeah. Save your whining later, Admiral. We have work to do." I said after leaving Matthew hanging.
"Colonel Juel, you are granted to go Hyperspeed." I said to Juel.
"Ah, ok." Juel said as he pushed some buttons and notify all passengers of the ship.
"GREETINGS, IT'S ADMIRAL JUEL JACKSON. WE ARE GOING HYPERSPEED IN 2 MINITES. I REPEAT, WE ARE GOING HYPERSPEED IN 2 MINUTES. PLEASE GRAB ON INTO SOMETHING DURING HYPERSPEED AS IT MAY CAUSE SOME SLIGHT TURBULENCE. HAVE A GOOD DAY." Juel notifies the passengers, and gives us a thumbs up.
"Well there's no point in saying 'Have a good day' Colonel Juel." Lia replied
"You're right, we are at space after all." Juel stated.
"Major Rev, prepare procedure Hyperspeed aiming towards the detected planet. Not too close but close enough to use an inspection drone to see what lies in the planet." I stated, making Major Rev pushing buttons and switches and replied "Hyperspeed ready, Captain!"
"And Lia, maximize power to all rear rockets." I commanded Lia, as she was shocked that she was finally tasked in something important.
She quickly ran next to Admiral Matthew and pushes a bunch of buttons, maximizing rocket power.
"Major Rev, commence Hyperspeed!" I shouted.
"Okay, Capta-" Major Rev stuttered as an explosion, causing everyone to go jump. As a Detection of damage happened in the right rear rocket as shown in a screen next to him.
"What the hell was that!?" Lia shouted.
"Captain, I am unable to commence Hyperspeed! Explosion occured in the left rear rocket, not because of over heating, but something else." Major Rev quickly pushes buttons and flicking switches as he tried to neutralize the after effect of the explosion.
After a couple of seconds, we we're getting some communication from the authorities on the left rear rocket.
"ADMIRAL *sounds of lazers shooting, WE HAVE BEEN BREACHED! A SERIES OF UNKNOWN CREATURES MANAGED TO SNEAK UNDER OUR RADAR AND BLOW A HOLE IN THE WALL IN SECTOR - 81. WE NEED BACKU-" A sudden static sound took over it's voice.
All 5 of us looked at each other as we are shocked about what happened. Lia took Matthew's communication device and shouted "MAKE SURE ALL PASSENGERS ARE SAFE, NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND!" then signaled me to follow.
"I am not surprised, she is one strong kid." Matthew said.
"2 of you, help guard the passengers. And contact me if you need backup" I said as I left the room holding up my lazer pistol, commanding the 4 guards to guard the passengers as well.
LIA'S POV
This is what I'm here about. 2 years of military experience, don't fail me now.
As I looked behind me, I see Kyler holding up a lazer pistol called the "CalibreX3". As I, holding a lazer pistol called "Protogun".
"Captain, You go ahead and go to Sector -81. I'll make sure Alan is alright." I said to Kyler as he nodded and parted ways.
I ran as fast as I could, hoping that Alan is alright. He is still 15, he still has more time to be alive. He wen't through rough things that even I, myself couldn't get through.
As I took a sharp left turn, I immediately clashed into someone. My head hurts because of that collision, trying to ease the pain by rubbing it. I wasn't aware about that, as I stood up and look at who it was.
It was Alan, he is wearing his uniform, still on the ground rubbing his head. As he looked at me, he asked "Lia? Where have you been?" as he stands up and continued "What was that explosion?".
I grabbed both of his arms and said "Alan, we are being breached right now. I need you to follow me and be close to me as possible until we are at the Pavillion, got it?" I replied.
"BREACHED?!" Alan panicked.
"I know It sounds bad, but remember what Captain Kyler told us." I said trying to calm Alan down.
"Do. not .panic." Alan and I stated at the same time.
"Follow me, Alan." I said as I grabbed Alan's hand and lead him into the Pavilion where most of the people gathers.
"Alan, have you brought your emergency gun?" I asked Alan.
"Yes I did. I'd never leave my gun whenever I go out." He said as he pulled out a small lazer gun that can shock someone out of consciousness.
"Good, just stay close." Lia stated, as we hear a static noise coming from Matthew's communication device.
"SECTOR - 81, AND OTHER SECTORS HAS BEEN BREACHED AS THEY SCATTERED AROUND. I WAS INFORMED THAT SECTORS - 1B TO 9C HAS BEEN BREACHED. I REPEAT, SECTORS - 1B TO 9C HAS BEEN BREACHED. OVER." coming out from the device.
As I realized that we are in sector - 5B, my adrenaline rushed as I am now informed.
"Lia, there's a bad guy with us right?" Alan questioned me as we ready our guns.
Silence, silence came upon us. Alan was hiding behind me as I tried to guard him the best I could. I was ready to defend any threat that comes in our way.
Suddenly, there was a loud thud coming from the end of the slightly curved corridor. I pointed a gun at the direction, trying to get ready on the dangers ahead.
Nothing appeared. So I signaled Alan to continue heading to the exit as I still looked at the direction where the thud came from, making sure Alan doesn't get hurt.
Unfortunately, I heard some noise coming from a vent between me and Alan.
"Alan, go. I'll take care of this." I said.
"I'm not leaving you Lia!" Alan protested.
"Alan, I couldn't bare to see you hurt." I stated.
"Lia, I can handle myse-" Alan stopped as the vent flew opened.
I lost track in what to do as an suited figure... with an white tail? came out of the vent and dashed towards me.
I quickly tried to shoot it, but it's too fast that I missed the figure, as Alan dodged the ricochet of the lazer.
The suited figure quickly pinned me towards the wall as it quickly disarmed me. Leaving my head regret about my unawareness, I couldn't even defend for myself.
Alan aimed his gun towards the figure and shoots. As the suited figure used me as a meat shield and shot me instead.
I was getting shocked, it feels like forever as I began to lose my sense of vision, and lost consciousness...
Darkness, nothing. I couldn't even defend for myself. Those 2 years of military experience is just a waste. Please God, keep Alan safe from trouble.
ALAN'S POV
I took a shot of my life as I pressed the trigger while aiming towards the bad guy.
I shut my eyes closed as I through it woll be bright.
I heard someone screaming in pain in getting shocked. For a second, I thought it was from the suited figure, but when I opened my eyes, it was Lia. She was lying on the ground, moving uncontrollably from the shock.
I quickly look at the suited figure with rage, as I risk another shot.
It dashed towards me, weaving the best it could.
I aimed, pressed the trigger, and hoped for the best.
Fortunately, the sound of electrification and a scream. I was sure it was successful.
I see that he is crying in pain as I stood, looking at the figure.
Gradually, it lost conciousness.
I decided to take off it's mask to reveal it's true identity.
As I took off it's mask. I see a winter wolf, as I hear some static sounds coming from his helmet, I decided to wear it to investigate.
As I wore the helmet, I could hear some communication.
A voice came and said "SIR, WE ARE NOW AT SECTOR 10C. PERMISSION TO BREACH FURTHER? OVER."
A voice replied "PERMISSION GRANTED, CADET. OVER."
I took off the helmet and walked over Lia to see if I could wake her up.
I tried shouting at her, didn't work. I tried slapping her lightly, didn't work. I also tried to carry her so I wouldn't waste time waking her up, didn't work.
I took out my handcuffs, given by Captain Kyler a year ago as a present.
I handcuffed the creature's... paws? into a pole next to him and gagged him with an leftover handkerchief in my pocket so he couldn't shout for help.
I did my last try in waking Lia up.
I ran into the nearest restroom and grabbed some water with an empty water bottle I found in the trash.
And I brought it back to Lia, and splashed Lia right in the face.
LIA'S POV
I wish I could save Alan before I passed out, but I couldn't. It feels like It was just yesterday when I first meet him.
SHIP - F20, 2 YEARS AGO
I was told that the new captain was hiring apprentices. I decided to give it a try, but my parents said that I'm too young to be in the face of danger. I never looked it that way, you just need proper skills to apply.
As I went and entered the training room where the test will be held, there are many adults and less teens at the room.
People looked at me like I am some sort of threat.
I decided to ignore it and sat in a vacant seat next to an boy who is looking down, sad.
I decided to speak up and introduce.
"Hey, are you ok?" I said, as the boy looked at me and replied "Yeah... I'm fine."
"My name is Lia, Lia Sander." I greeted, offering him a handshake.
"Alan, Alan Blerham." He said and shook my hand.
"Are you excited to help people find a better place?" I stated as I gesture a fist bump, awaiting his response.
"Uh, sure. Why not?" He replied and fist bumped.
Suddenly, the door swiftly opened and introducing two figures wearing a trench coat.
They walked unto the podium and greeted "I am Vice Admiral Matthew, with me is Chief Inspector Kilo."
"As you may know, the Captain has been requesting an application of Apprentice Captain for the past 2 years of his service. He told us that we only needed 1 Captain, and why won't we give him some side kicks as well?" Matthew stated, as Kilo readies his statement holding a clipboard.
"The total applicants we have counted today are…" Kilo said as he double checks and continued "94 Applicants, fighting for 2 positions."
"Since we have an even number of applicants, we decided to group you all in pairs so it will be easy to track cooperation and teamwork." Matthew stated, as Kilo readies another statement.
"The application proccess takes only 3 - 4 months. See? Isn't it easy? You're just gonna survive for a few months."
"And If you are wondering why some here are young. It's because If the captain passes away, we needed some one who can live longer than adults and serve longer as a captain! No offense to all those who are old." Matthew protested.
"Indeed they are, you will in our sleeping quarters until the application process or... "training" for the people that couldn't understand." Matthew stated.
"All of your sleeping quarters will be shown in the map on the exit, I need some sleep. DISMISSED!" Kilo shouted.
"SIR, YES SIR!" We all stood up and saluted.
As I was about to get off my seat, I think about partnering with Alan.
As he was about to get off his seat.
"Alan!" I said, as he looked at me with confusion.
"What's up?"
"Would you like to be my partner?"
"Um, uh... Sure!" Alan agreed, as he blushed a little.
In the past 4 months, we we're outstanding! Top in our application! We we're medaled and was friends with the Captain which he doesn't look strict as they told me.
PRESENT
I wish I could hang out with him more, I couldn't bare to see him suffer.
Suddenly, I felt a cold feeling around my face. I tried to see what was it but I couldn't open my eyes.
I felt it again! but this time, I felt it more.
Suddenly, A huge splash gave me consciousness as I woke up and see Alan with a bucket.
I coughed and coughed as I tried to stand up.
"Lia! Thank god you're awake!" as Alan dropped the bucket and hugged me as tight as he could.
"Alan, I'm fine. How did you-" As I look into my left, I see an suited white wolf gagged and hand cuffed next to a pole trying to break free.
"Alan, did you do this?" I asked, following with Alan's nod.
"Alan, that is amazing!" I ecstatically stated.
"Come on! Let's head to the pavilion!" Alan grabbed my hand and leads the way, holding an helmet that I assume was from the wolf.
I was proud of Alan, I could see him as a young captain right now.
KYLER'S POV
After I parted ways with Lia, I quickly called for backup, requesting all available guards to report in Sector - 81.
I can't believe this, We we're so close to living in a planet again. I wonder if other ships has been dealing with this as well.
I decided to call our neighboring ship, Ship-B02. I dialed their ship code with my communication device (a rectangular transparent shaped holographic device) and awaited their reply.
I continued my way into sector - 79, seeing guards rally up and ready.
I am was still awaiting for Ship-B02's Captain to reply. Worried that other ships has been attacked before we did.
I hear a static sound coming from my device, as I repeatedly said "This is Ship-F20, we need an response immediately!"
As I waited for their response, I hear a voice coming from Ship-B02.
"OVER. THIS IS CAPTAIN COEL. WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT-" a loud explosion interrupted, and continued "WE HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT 52 OTHER SHIPS WAS INVADED! GOD DAMNIT!"
As he said that, a loud thud came over the device as Captain Coel stated "GO HYPERSPEED, LEAVE NOW. OUR POPULATION AND FUTURE IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN-" He was interrupted as another loud thud came over.
"CAPTAIN COEL, WHAT'S HAPPENING IN THERE!?" I Shouted as the reply was only static.
I was hit by emotion as I heard that they outsmarted us with their technology, managing to sneak under our radar and invade each ship.
I let out a tear as people's hope shattered into pieces.
I wipe off my tear with my thumb and continued on with my mission.
I loud explosion went off in the other side of the ship, as I assumed the right rear side of the ship.
I signaled a platoon of guards to come with me to help out with the situation, and other guards to search all sectors of the ship for unauthorized invaders.
"This is Captain Kyler, over." As I communicate with the pilot using the communication device.
"Major Rev here, What's the situation?" He replied
"Can you look into the ship's rear camera? I need you to describe all details possible."
"Okay, just a minute."
I took a Lazer Blaster called (PlatinumX) which shoots like an submachine gun on top of an weapons crate as guatds follow my lead.
"Kyler, I've never want to say this. but…" a voice over came from the communication device.
"There are only 2 ships left, including us."
My jaw dropped as I heard the news. I've never witnessed such invasion like this before.
As I sprinted along with some guards, we have finally entered Sector -80, where some action is taking place right now.
I took cover as I saw 3 suited figures aiming at me.
I rolled towards a stack of weapon crates, as I hear lazer's ricochet around the sector, hitting some guards aswell as the suited figures.
"Captain Kyler, I requested 2 Rear Admirals to assist in Sector - 188 (right rear of the ship) to lead brigades, and 3 Lieutenants unto Sectors 11A to 9C to lead the platoons." Rev stated.
"Okay, Copy." I replied.
As I tried to peak at the edge of the crate, I was greeted by an incoming lazer, as I quickly dodged.
My adrenaline was rushing, as I stood up and shoot one of the suited creatures in the shoulder.
I quickly sat back into cover as other guards shoots as well.
I immediately took my pistol to pair up with my Lazer Blaster.
As I stood up and aimed at the closest thing possible. I pulled both triggers at the same time, as I was having difficulty in aiming, I was actually hitting some shots.
I ran while shooting both guns and shouted "ADVANCE" signaling my guards to follow suit.
I took a lazer to my left leg, and fell over. Still grabbing both weapons.
As I felt someone carrying me towards cover.
We manage to back them off into the gate of sector - 81.
After some shooting. I felt that my Lazer Blaster was over heating, causing me to drop is immediately. I looked behind me as I saw dozen of suited elite guards try and hold off the enemies.
I looked at the medic who is next to me who saved me from getting shot, I recognized this fellow. It was Medic Crystal, a woman who has 5 years of military experience, also one of my best friends during elementary school.
"Kyler, you took a quite beating." She stated as she took a Medkit and opened it.
"*Sigh*, It's been a while since I fought into battle." I stated as I quietly cried in pain as she carefully applied medical application, stitched it up, and applied cloth around it.
"Stay here, Kyler. You need to heal that up for a bit" She replied.
"Alright."I said, as I carefully stand up. Leaving me in pain of my left leg.
"God damnit Kyler, what did I just say?" Crystal grunted as she carefully lay me down.
"You always call me stubborn, Crystal." I stated, following with a chuckle.
"Dude, don't make jokes at this time please." she angerly stated.
"Just stay here." she said and left, weaving her way towards the nearest medical room.
So, what do my stubborn attitude do?
I gradually tried to stand up, leaning towards the crates for support.
As I ignored the pain, I started picking up a voice in my communication device.
"CAPTAIN, LIEUTENANT VALE TALKING. IF YOU'RE LISTENING. THEY HAVE KILLED DOZEN OF PASSENGERS, LEAVING US WITH APPROXIMATELY… 100,000 PASSENGERS LEFT, WE TRIED TO HOLD THEM OFF, BUT THEY HAVE THIS... SOME SORT OF WEAPON... I COULDN'T IDENTIFY WHAT IT ARE AT SECTOR -12 (NEAR THE ESCAPE PODS), BUT WE ARE SURROUNDED BY THEM. WE NEED BACKUP, NOW!"
As the voice ended. I was sure that these creatures wanted us extinct.
I shouted at the guards "KEEP SHOOTING!"
As I slowly head towards sector - 12, on my own, with a plan.
