Sorry I didn't update for a while I did another playthrough of No Man's Sky to get a base for the story. I'm also changing up the style of the story a bit to have lot more details and so it won't be as confusing and so every chapter is longer. Thank you here is chapter 2
Chapter 2: Awake and I'm scared
I wake up on my back…my back feels sore all over and have vague memories of what happened. Who was that guy? Was I dreaming? I open my eyes and see the…sky? Wait, I was inside last I remember, and the sky isn't pink! I shoot straight up and I realize that I'm wearing some sort of suit it's…red and has no helmet (but it looks like It had one) and I reach back and feel a backpack that's attached to it, I can't seem to pull it off. I get up to have a better look at my surroundings and I see weird stuff everywhere blue cactus looking things, red crystals jutting out of the ground, patches of blue grass, and… no…no no no! I know what I see and I don't want it be true. I see a red spaceship that looks broken but repairable with a red helmet and a small gun thing next to it. But another thing catches my eye…another person laying on the ground in the same suit I have but it doesn't look like they're waking up any time soon. Other than that this is all too familiar, I'm in no man's sky. I can't say I didn't ask for it but I didn't mean it! Whoever texted me actually set me into this world…I proceeded to cry like a little girl. "ok I get it very funny! Can you please let me out? I'm sorry I cussed you out like that! Please please I want to go home! Ohhh god I'M STUCK HERE AM I?! AHHHHHH!"
1 "hour" later…
Eventually I tired myself out. Ok I need to keep calm I can't be screaming for the rest of my life. So if he can send me in here it can be deduced that he can send me back , all I need to do is find him or at least a way to contact him. He's bound to be somewhere among 15 quintilli… I shouldn't think about that. Alright what do I have on me , a flashlight(oddly it has a label in English calling itself a "torch" weird),and that's it. Well if I'm going to find him I'm going to have to fix the ship. I walk over t check the damage (ignoring the possible dead body)along the way I grab the multitool and put on the helmet, any protection is good protection, I see that the hud looks the same as the game(after the update) but with more detail. I wonder how I zoom, there's no buttons my I. as I squit my eyes my vision zooms in 3 times DAMN. I stop squinting, talk about vertigo,and I look at the ship suddenly the helmet starts speaking. Damage report: launch trusters…operational, pulse engine…offline, warp drive...fuel needed. Well at least the trust is online which is weird, not that I'm complaining. I don't need to worry about warp now. Repairing of pulse engine will require 50 units of iron, and 100 units of plutonium in order to craft a repair kit. Well that's different, again I'm not complaining, so how do I use the multitool? How do I store materials, craft, and fight? Time to experiment I guess, there's a trigger and a switch on the side with a button right above that. I aim the tool at a crystal (now labeled thanks the hud) and pull the trigger. A beam comes out and chunks of it start flying at me, instinctively I duck and drop the multitool but the chunks fly right into the tool and disappear. I get up and grab it, so it appears the materials go to this. Maybe it's also my inventory, I press the button above the switch and a small window appears, it looks just like the screen in the game. An icon is there PLUTONIUM: 10. "maybe…" I grab a rock and slam it into the multitool, and an icon appears, IRON: 1. I grab another rock and do the same, IRON: 2. Alright simple enough I look at the screen and see three tabs, multitool, ship, and craft. "hmmm" craft is new and there is no suit inventory. I check out 'ship' and see just about what I expected, the icons for launch, pulse, weapons, shields, hyper drive, and warp. All of them are working except for pulse, and warp is out of cells. Interestingly it appears that I have all the inventory space I will need, same for the multitool. Huh let us check out 'craft'…oh shit it looks like every blueprint in the game is in here is in here, warp cell carite sheet, upgrades, etcetera. There's ever some new ones here, ship repair kit(must be the one the hud was taking about), magnetic boots(why?), food paste(I'm kind of hungry), water(I am pretty thirsty), radio(would that be useful in space?…I wonder what music aliens listen to), and more. So, let's see repair kit, 50 iron 100 plu-Yep that's the same as what it told me. Right now, I'm 48 and 90 units short of iron and plutonium. I press the button again and the window disappears, I haven't tried the switch yet so a quick turn and the hud speaks up again. Combat mode. Alright simple to understand I pull the trigger and sure enough a burst of lasers come out of the tool I press the button and a plasma grenade comes out leaving a small crater in its wake.(better remember to switch back if I ever finish a fight) I switch back. Mining mode. Huff better get to work.
30 minutes later…
Alright that's 50 iron and 100 plutonium time to make this repair kit. Let's see craft…ship repair kit that's it! hold trigger to fabricate ha that kinda reminds me of subnautica. (thank god I'm not in that world!) Well then, I hold the trigger and it starts to form in front of my eyes "whoa sci-fi!" about a second later and there it is on the ground, my ticket out of the planet. I pick up the kit and walk towards the ship. I examine it for instructions since this is more of a fluid than any tools I've seen and sure enough there it is. Find any broken parts of your spacecraft and coat it in the repair gel this should fix any issues with the craft. After that is a bunch of warnings in languages I don't understand, but this seems simple enough- "oh fuck!" I forgot about the body which startled me a bit, well since I am leaving I should check the body for any resources…ok that sound a bit evil. Alright lets see, front pockets nothing, back pockets nada, I think this was their multitool…wait did their chest just rise a bit!?...don't tell me…I feel a pulse! It's fait but it's a pulse! I need to get them to a space station I mean it is right there in the sky and this is their multitool…all right buddy let's get out of here. I pop the 'hood' of the ship and find the pulse engine(thanks hud) and slather that bitch in gel as per instructions. Sure enough I hear Ship…operational I open the cockpit and see two seats (thank god) I pick up my unconscious friend (god you're heavy)and gently place them on the back seat strapping them in tightly. I hop in when in when it dawns on me "HOW DO FUCK DO I FLY THIS THING!"
