Chapter 2: The "Crew Selection"
"Has anyone seen Tinker bell?" asked Terrance who had recently returned from his trip of delivering pixie dust to the other fairy camps. "Oh if you're looking for her she should be near the human buildings." replied Fawn who had just happened to return from dealing with the animals. That was when Tinker bell zoomed into the camp breathless from her flight. "Tinker bell just what in the world is the matter!" Rosetta exclaimed. "Girls you should come see this! The humans are moving something extraordinary out of the very big building that we thought didn't have anything interesting." "What? What is it." they exclaimed. "Come and see for yourselves!" and with that Tink took off. They all followed Tinker bell back to the tree near the compound and were also shocked at what they saw except for Vidia. "Just what is this? It just looks like a giant hunk of junk." "Oh come on Vidia, I don't think that the humans would make something useless if they were going to make something that big." chided Tinker bell. "Yeah but Vidia's right just what exactly is that thing?" asks Silvermist. "To be quite honest it looks to me like an upside-down carrot pointing to the sky." replied Rosetta, "It's just that this carrot is huge and made out of metal." They watched on as the humans surrounded the horseless carriage monitoring it as is slowly went on to the launch complex 39A. "I wonder why the very tip of the 'carrot' is silver colored and not black and white like the rest of the thing." Periwinkle asked. "I think you're right about that Miss Periwinkle, maybe the humans made something very special in that thing for it to be colored differently than the rest of It." replied Bobble. "Well whatever it is I'm going to find out, but until then I think we would have to wait until there are less humans around." replied Tinker bell. "For once I think I can actually agree with you on that" Vidia smugly retored.
Several days later
"O.K. now here's our chance." "Are you sure about this Tinker bell?" "Yes! Right now there are no humans near the silver colored area and also they left the door open!" Tinker bell and sometimes with her friends would come back and check the thing out from time to time ever since that fateful morning. They managed to examine the thing in question rather closely whenever the humans left the thing alone. What they found out was rather surprising especially for the tinker fairies in the group. At the bottom of the metal carrot there were 5 cones that are currently spewing out a very cold mist much to the enjoyment of Periwinkle. Interestingly Silvermist told them that the mist was not made of water but felt that it was made out of very cold air. They also found out that at the top of the silver part of the carrot there seemed to be some sort of white cap that had a silver door that they couldn't open, but they could be able to see through the window to see 3 seats and a wall full of buttons and needles similar to the ones they saw in the buildings but much more numerous. Another thing that they noted was that even though it was warm out the metal surface of the carrot was so cold that ice was forming on it. Bobble and Clank were currently examining the body of the carrot trying to figure out why is the carrot cold while the day was warm. Currently Tinker bell, Vidia, Silvermist, Iridesssa, Fawn, Rosetta, and Periwrinkle were at the door that they originally found closed but now it was wide open. "Uh Tinker bell I think going in there is a bad idea. Remember the last time you went into a human made building you were locked inside?" (The great fairy rescue) "Yeah but you were the one who shut the door remember? Also if you have any problem with it then you can just stay outside and keep watch." Then Tinker bell went into the door with a huff. "Well, I think that some of us should go look after her in there then." replied Silvermist and with that she, Iridessa, and Periwrinkle followed her through the door. Not knowing that they had just sealed their fate into the annals of unspoken history.
Just to let you guys know the building that the Saturn V came from was the Vehicle Assembly building at the Kennedy Space Center. Also the so called horseless carriage was the Crawler-transporter which is one heck of a giant vehicle that was developed specifically to transport space vehicles. They are still in service to this day. Please review thank you.
