Chapter 16- The Asteroid Belt
Now Hale's ship was flying in outer space, now more beautiful since the cockpit window was much bigger than before. The Ham-Hams got used to the speed, still fast though, so they were all standing behind Hale, who was still sitting and steering the ship. Sadly though, strange fog was covering their view. Hale could still navigate through space with his radar, but the Ham-Hams that joined Hale to help him all wanted to see the planet from a far view, then a close view.
"How much longer, Hale?" Hamtaro asked, holding his impatience. "I've now wondered what the planet looks like."
"Who cares about that?" Hale then said. "Sheiug is definitely at the planet as we speak. Who knows what the planet's condition is now? He's more powerful than any hamster brain could imagine."
"...and that's why we're going to stop him." Boss answered.
"...but how, Boss? How do you defeat a hamster created by the hamster devil? (Sighs) God, the creator of everything: when he created all the gods and goddesses of all the animals, he said that one spirit they create shall betray them. Devil-Ham is an example.
The Betrayers all have created something that will support them even since they've discovered their massive power. And God needed the Betrayers because without them, the universe would have nothing to fight back and would therefore be too easy. But the Betrayers overreacted and sometimes created chaos. Devil-Ham has done this now and we must stop his creations from their madness so he will cease and act normally! We just need to know how."
"All ve need iz a stragetzy" brave Bijou answered, like the story didn't scare her at all. "Maybve oncze ve findz out Sheiug'z power, ve can make up a plan to finally stop him!"
"That's a great idea!" Boss and Hamtaro yelled out, making her blush from embarrassment.
"I guess you have a good point there, Bijou." Hale then calmed down. "I just hope you're right."
"Hey look!" Hamtaro then yelled out. "The spacey fog is going away!"
The 4 Ham-Hams all cheered as the fog faded away. But soon their cheers were silenced and were changed into confusion. All that was in front of them was a massive asteroid field, about 160 feet away from them. Behind it 34 miles away was Ham-Ham Planet. Hale slowed down the speed a little by pulling switch located on the left side of the steering wheel.
"Uhh Hale...where are we?" Boss asked, now very worried.
"NO! Ze planet haz been destroyed! Ve're too late!" Bijou yelled. The 3 Ham- Hams then panicked and cried and they now didn't know what to do.
"Ham-Hams, calm down!" Hale yelled, slightly mad, but realized their pain and calmed down. "This is not Ham-Ham Planet."
"It iz not?" Bijou discovered. "Oh thank goddnesz!"
The Ham-Hams who were all scared now all cheered again, their worry now gone.
"But if it isn't, then what is this place?" Hamtaro wondered.
"This is the solar system's asteroid belt, which separates the inner planets from the outer planets. In case you didn't know, Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, and Ham-Ham Planet are the inner planets. Ham-Ham World, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto are the outer planets.
Pluto might not be a planet though, due to its bizarre size and orbit. Anyway, back to the old topic: don't worry I can get through the belt. I just need to..."
"...destroy them and get them out of the way!" Boss rudely answered for Hale. He then immediately aimed his paw at the far right side of the control panel a button labeled Bomb Cannon 1.
"Boss, no!" Hale yelled. He instantly unbuckled his seat belts, turned on the Autopilot switch, and ran to Boss to stop him. But as soon as he got there, the button was pushed. A slight force was felt on the ship. They all looked outside and saw a huge blue ball fire out of the ship and head for the asteroids. When it hit one...PPRRSSHH!! A huge occurred where the far asteroids were. There was green smoke covering the scene, but they could see the asteroids all getting smaller and flying away. Soon the smoke covered the entire scene.
"See? That's what we needed to do." Boss said happily. Hale was absolutely furious. He looked at Boss with angry eyes that almost scared Boss.
"You imbecile! That explosion didn't evaporate the asteroids! Now they are smaller pieces at higher speeds and there are now more chances of us getting killed!"
The Ham-Hams just stayed silent. They've never seen Hale so angry before. His eyes even glowed yellow, but only a tiny bit. Boss just looked back at the furious Hale, his eyes with a scared look.
"You shouldn't do things without knowing what it will fully do. This could cause chaotic things." Hale said. Boss just put his down and sighed.
"You're right. I'm sorry. I guess I overreacted." Boss apologized.
"It's all right." Hale told him. "Just don't do something like this again. Let this be a lesson for your future. Okay everyone sit down. This could get dangerous..."
They all sat down back to their original seats with the seat belts automatically put on them. Hale then pushed a button labeled Conversion. Nothing. He pushed it again. Nothing either. He then pressed it rapidly for about 6 seconds until he gave up.
"Oh great." Hale groaned. "Now it's going to be harder!"
"How?" The 3 already-worried Ham-Hams asked.
"The conversion engines are jammed and I now can't change the ship to its smaller state."
"Oh boy..." Boss just mumbled.
"Are you sure you can do zis?" Bijou asked.
"Bijou, even I don't know." Hale just said.
Soon roller coaster-like seat belts went from their shoulders to their thighs and quickly connected, now a full body pad ceasing them from flying away. The ship's speed now went at full speed. If it went any slower, a piece of an asteroid could hit the ship, the strength slowing it down and increasing chances of getting hit by a million of them.
"Hold on." was the only thing a hamster said, Hale, before WHOOSH! The ship was now going up and down, left to right and even loops to avoid incoming meteors and asteroids. It was like a deadly high-speed roller coaster ride at 120 mph (which is extremely fast for hamsters) that could lead to death without caution.
"AAGGHH!!" The 3 Ham-Hams screamed as the speed and suspense highly worried them. Hale just fully concentrated at every tiny action he made to steer the large ship out of the way of being damaged. To make things a bit worse, the sides of the ship even grinded on a few asteroid pieces, leaving a few brown marks onto the hit areas. The ship even went through the holes of some pieces.
"Whheenn wwiillll ththiiss bbeee oovvveerr??!!!" Boss yelled to Hale.
"Just (grunt) hang on!" Hale yelled out as the ship dodged 3 more asteroids. The ship now went down to avoid the upper invasion of meteoroids. Their hearts were now beating harder and faster than they have ever beated, even faster for Boss than at the time when Bijou thought she was going to move back to France and everyone gave her good-bye gifts and Boss wanted to give her his tough gift: confession of love. Hale grunted with each deadly dodge of an asteroid and meteoroid he made.
The ship now went back up, pushing the Ham-Hams to their seats. The engine whirred louder as the ship more sharp twists and turns to escape death.
"I (grunt) see it!" Hale then yelled out. The Ham-Hams knew he saw the planet and didn't say anything, but they finally had some happiness on their ride of death. The ship now barely gained some speed and dodged more incoming asteroids.
"Come on...come on..." Hale muttered at he raced through the deadly asteroid belt. Passing 20 more asteroids and 13 meteoroids, it now seemed that the amount of them was decreasing. He now decreased the speed, but only a little.
After more dodging, he saw the last asteroid. Strangely, it was shaped like Sheiug's head. It didn't have his face, but only the shape of the head. He then passed by it and the Ham-Hams all sighed in relief. The three other Ham-Hams didn't notice, but Hale only did and this confused him.
What does Sheiug have to do with the asteroids?, Hale thought to himself. Oh well maybe I'll find out later..
"All right, Hale!" Boss cheered. "That was amazing!"
"Oui! I zidn't know a hamster couldz be zo szmart at zis sort of situatzion!" Bijou applauded
"Awesome work, Hale!" Hamtaro agreed with the other two. Hale just grinned with appreciation.
"Thank-Q, Ham-Hams." Hale responded, still facing space and steering the ship.
"Next stop: Ham-Ham World!" Hamtaro yelled out.
The 4 Ham-Hams all cheered as the ship was flying to their next planet, which could now be seen perfectly. It was a brown planet, with some red strange spots spread around it. Hamtaro, Bijou, and Boss were all dazzled, but they sensed a negative feeling in Hale.
"Hale, iz somezing vrong?" Bijou asked. She had this weird feeling that something wasn't right."
"No..." Hale just muttered out. "My home world...destroyed..."
