The universe. What a magnificent place, The-Whistler thought as he looked out of the ship's window. He was a soldier who was sent with many others in separate pods to explore an unknown world. Hardly even out of training camp, the thought of fighting for real sent shivers of terror and excitement down his spine.

He glanced outside again. To his horror, the ship was about to enter a field of asteroids! The-Whistler ran to the controls and tried pulling away. This wasn't supposed to happen. The radar didn't suspect a thing! After the first few hits, the ship started to spiral out of control. Strapping himself in his seat, he shut his eyes tight. This isn't happening. This isn't HAPPENING! Oh gods, don't let me die yet! I still have too many things to do! He fervently prayed to the gods as he and his ship plunged straight down to their destination.

The-Whistler had Fate on his side that day along with another someone. The cards were dealt, and soon their paths will meet.

How is it? Good? Bad? Hee hee! Any kind of reviews please!
