The blast
I smiled at Sonya, who was gasping, from my hug and that the ship was burning up from outside.
"Aww, I knew you could not be friends with that cock-muncher." I smiled, squeezing her tightly.
"Hey," Sonya wheezed, "the ship, it gonna blow..."
I widened my eyes, "Yeah, thats what they want to do, blow up the inner core, then the outer core, mantle and all the rest."
"Huh?"
I rolled my eyes, "They want to blow up the world, from here, so it eats itself up, which is enough time for them to escape.
"Oh..." She breathed, "You can stop hugging me now."
I eyed her and smirked, "since this is the end for us, is there anything you would like to-"
Sonya grimaced, "This is no time to crack lesbian jokes."
"Right, we need to stop the explosion, which is most likely going to start in the engine room." Once I said those two words, something filled my head with realization and shock.
We ran to the engine room, opened the doors, and found my arch enemy, hysterically rocking back and forth on her chair. She screamed 'help' at us, but the gag muffled her ignored her and walked toward the controls. She said something like a 'hey!'. I looked at the controls and started pushing buttons frantically.
"Is it working?" Sonya urged.
"NO! My job is not to control! Its to check. Arghhhhhh!!" I thumped my fist on a handful of buttons.
We heard a click, and the lights went out. And the ships engine slowed down to a halt. There was a rumble,and hot, hot lava spewed out of holes created by the heat. What we felt was far from half of it. If it was the actual temperature of the core, we would have melted in a matter of seconds.
We were so sweaty, that the gag from the shit-bag's mouth slipped from her face.
"Nice face." She gasped.
"Sue me." I said, slipping the anti-heat has-man suite on. Sonya put one on too. Then we put one on the rat sack. I never told you her name. Her name was Christine, although i find her name has a deflect on her personality.
"The escape pods..." Sonya breathed, as she felt cold wind blow on her face, a blissful heaven in a suite.
We sprinted down the hall, to the pods.
We blasted off, from the core, making a tunnel, but it healed itself by clamping down iron on us.
We got away into the outer core, going faster than light, lighter than air. We kissed the moon as we shot out from the crust, and flew into orbit. We saw the earth, the sedimentary rock it was made from, crumpling into the sea, the sea was sucked into the earth, and out gushed, fresh, white waters, washing over the land, and the earth making the land, the seas, the rivers, the mountains, the volcanoes, the earthquakes. It was beautiful. We landed softly on the fresh green plateau, and i sunk to the ground, finally at rest.
Sonya leaned over me, "What about, our parents?"
I closed my eyes, "they have beaches, palm trees, all they don't have is us."
Tears formed in her eyes, "but i want THEM."
I smiled, and touched her face, as Christine stumbled out, "we will deal with that next, yeah?"
Sonya sniffed, and nodded, "promise?"
"Promise."
