Ellie walked into the command room for the CEC tardy and almost out of breath. Ellie hurried to her station, hoping she'll be unnoticed. She would have to make up a excuse for why she was so late. She couldn't say her boyfriend's desires were taking over him. That would surely get her fired. Well, at least she could stay home now.
"Where have you been Langford?" She herd her captain's voice behind her.
"Shit" she said under her breath as she spun around. "I over slept" She lied.
"Likely story. Who can confirm this?" The captain glared at her. Ellie cared to return the glare.
"My boyfriend, Isaac, he works in engendering."Ellie hoped that Isaac will go along with the story if her commander decides to check Ellie's statement. The captain in return gave Ellie a hard glare and snapped at her to get back to work. Ellie then sighed and walked over to her station.
"Overslept?" Her friend Jane said while giving her a disbelieving look.
"Isaac wouldn't let me go." She said and quickly looked around to see if the captain was in ear shot range.
"Why didn't you just stay home?" Jane questioned.
"Because, if I would of, warden over there would have my ass if she found out I played hokkie." She whispered besides her. Jane returned with a small chuckle.
The rest of the day went pretty normal for Ellie. At about noon the captain came up to her.
"Langford." She snapped at Ellie. Ellie quickly turned to see her captain behind her. "I want you with that crew going to the Hargo. They are low on cargo. I'll send you the coordinates " She the gestured to the ship with the crew preparing to leave."You'll be there commander."
"What about Jack?" She asked in question.
"He called in sick. Now go." She commanded Ellie.
Ellie nodded and quickly gathered her things and walked onto the ship with the crew of 5.
"What are you doing?" a man that Ellie didn't recognize, meaning he must of work somewhere else.
"I'm you commander." Ellie said in a smart-ass way.
"You?" The same man said and the others turning to look at her. Ellie knew 2 people. A girl that worked in engineering, she help Ellie with a ship when the power was blown. Ellie was commanded to take her help. Even though she could of done it perfectly herself. The other man she also knew. His name was Rob. He also worked in CEC, he must be her co- commander.
"Yes me." she said and shot the guy look and than sat herself down in front of the main controls"So, What do we got here?" she asked looking at all panels in front of her.
"Well the ship model is a GS16 were taking off in 10 minutes." said Rob the co-commander to Ellie."So do what you need to do." He said to the rest of the team.
"Your Ellie right?" He said to her.
"Yeah, Your Rob."
"Well, good to be flying with you Ellie" He said and gave her a quick smile. She returned it and went off the ship to call Isaac.
"Hey Isaac." She said while smiling through the video transmission.
"Hey Ells. What's up?" He asked her.
"I'm being forced to take a ship and the crew to the Hurgo. Were taking cargo over there. I probably won't be back till latter tonight." She said to Isaac with a disappointing look on her face.
"Can't they get someone else to do it?" Isaac relied frowning.
" No, the original commander called in sick, ironically, and now I have to do it. I'm sorry." She said mimicking Isaac's frown.
"Don't worry about it. I'll see you soon okay? Have a good time, I love you." Isaac said to Ellie changing his frown to a bright grin.
"Love you to." Ellie replied with a smile and clicked off the transmission.
"Ready?" Came Rob form inside the ship. Ellie nodded and stepped into the ship. Most of the flight there went smooth. Then Rob noticed something.
"Hey Ellie, what's that?" Rob questioned pointing out the front window to a bright light out the window. It wasn't a star, it was too bright and awkward shaped.
"I'm not su-" Elie was cut off when the ship started to shake. All the ships warnings and sirens went off all around her. She quickly stumbled to her feet trying to stop the controls. Then as she glanced up she saw something before her eyes that made her heart stop. Necromorph's, thousands of them, swarming in thought the Hurgo.
"EVERYONE HOLD ON" Ellie shouted and going into the compartments to grab a few plasma cutters and tossing them to the crew. "STAY TOGETHER AND TRY NOT TO DIE!" again Ellie shouted.
"ELLIE! WHAT'S GOING ON?" Rob asked yelling over the sirens.
"There's Necrommorph's on the Hurgo, where were about to crash into." she said loud enough that only Rob could hear. Rob's face turned ghostly white and the look of shock and horror still rang on his face when ever the ship had crashed. Ellie was tossed to the opposite side of where she was. Once she hit the metal siding, it turned to nothing but blackness.
