Missing mum
The deserted hallway was silent as he stood in its dark, empty tunnel. He checked his skin to see his unbreakable armour lay fastened tightly to his skin, his helmet was in his arms with nothing but two eye holes cut into it. He had no weapon , the armour was his only defence, he tried to stare even further down the hallway but the darkness was to strong and soon started to eat away more of the corridor. He panicked as the only light source outside was disappearing below the horizon, his heart raced inside him as he took the first step towards his greatest fear.
He awoke in his bed as he appeared back in his room. It was a dream, he thought as he raised himself from his slumber. His heart was still racing and he was covered in slimy sweat. He wiped his forehead struggling for energy, he was breathing heavily and he let out a huge sigh of relief as he was once again safe in his own room.
He jumped out of bed and put on his clothes as he made his way slowly to his mum in the kitchen. His name is Fronzek and he is a Hundre, a type of species that does not need to eat or drink much and has the power to control a single substance anywhere, he can control water, it is a very rare ability and he is the only one on the whole ship who has that power, his species used to live peacefully on a huge planet near the Morgraz star, as we called it, now they have lost a war to the vile grozan, a rotten species which used to live at the hidden bottom of the vast open sea until they invaded the land and forced them to evacuate to the skies above, now all their species, or what's left of them, live frightened in the orbit of their planet, millions of spaceships in different shapes and sizes hidden in space, it is horrible, his species now is very wary of every move they make as to make sure they do not disappear completely from space, he is the only Hundre he had ever seen that is a risk taker, he has jumped down a small sewer to be stopped quickly by the tunnels within, it took them weeks to find him hidden in the central cleaning station, he wanted to be hidden as he had been teased at school for his urge to get to the outside space or to the wide jungles of his planet, that was his dream for life, he had also nearly got to the gravity room but if he got in there he would be killed by the intense pressure, he had been everywhere in the ship, excluding the control room and the gravity room, the control room was where the captain of the ship worked day and night to avoid any oncoming space ships flown by other Hundre.
he walked into the kitchen to see his mum gone, this was a rare thing as she was usually standing there making breakfast for him and forcing him to try and get a job around the ship now he had finished school. Fronzek walked out into the corridor and saw no one but his annoying neighbour delivering the post to him.
"Have you seen my mum?" asked Fronzek to his annoying neighbour, Dorax. Dorax looked confused.
"is she not here like always?" asked Dorax handing Fronzek the daily post as it floated from his hand to Fronzeks hands, Dorax having the power to control paper, this was the most common power.
"No" said Fronzek as he became disappointed, he had no information.
"anyway must be going, there is a good story on page 7 in the newspaper giving me more excitement then when my boss gave me a raise, it is very good, look at it, you might like it too, anyway I'll be seeing you" he walked off to knock on Fronzeks next door neighbour, Utgell. He would often talk too much, like today.
Fronzek quickly opened the paper to page 7 to find an odd title "touchdown Hundre"
