Chapter 1: An Important Delivery
"Good news everyone!" the Professor said as everyone settled themselves around the table. "I have a very important package for you to deliver. But I can only send one of you to deliver it. Let's see…" No one looked very enthusiastic. "Now, I know all of you want to go, but I'll choose… Zoidberg!"
"Hooray! I'm important!" Zoidberg cheered.
"No, no, Fry! You can deliver it," the Professor decided.
"Hunh?" Fry grunted, busy with his Gameboy.
"Awww…" Zoidberg groaned.
"What?" Leela cried. "Zoidberg is weird, so I understand why you decided against him," Zoidberg hung his head, "but choosing Fry instead is stupid! He's an incompetent bum! He couldn't deliver something if his life depended on it!"
"Ohh, dear, then that's a problem," the professor replied, "because lives do depend on it!"
"In that case, I think you should choose someone else," Leela said, trying to drop a hint.
"You're right. Bender, you deliver it."
Leela smacked her head. "I meant me…"
Not hearing her, Bender confessed: "I don't have the work ethic, or the attention span to make a delivery. Fry can do it."
"Cool," Fry stated.
Leela sighed. "Fine, but I'm flying. Hermes probably doesn't want to have to deal with replacing the east wall again."
In The Ship…"Now, Fry, I don't want you slacking off during this delivery, ok? According to the Professor, lives depend on it!" Leela nagged.
"K" Fry replied while playing Mrs. Pac-Man on the navigation system.
"Which way, Fry?" Leela asked. "We've hit an asteroid field!"
"Left! Up! Left! Down! Right! Down! Left! Down! Right! Up! Right! Up!" Fry yelled.
As Leela followed those directions, she noticed something strange, other than the fact that they were in the same spot as when they started.
"Dang! I got eaten by a ghost!" Fry complained.
"Fry, you idiot!"
