Chapter 7-We're Off!(Chisato)
"Hurry up Chisato! Breakfast is ready!" I heard Rena yell from the other side of the door. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. I then got out of bed and walked to the mirror.
"Omigosh! I'm a total mess! Tsk, tsk, tsk. This won't do at all. I should make a good presence for any new people I might be meeting! This might take a while...Better get started...," I said and then ran off into the bathroom.
----------
I walked out of the bathroom looking great. I was a white blouse with a nice red skirt. Some beautiful red hig heels that matched my skirt, and some white earrings. I then looked at myself in the mirror."Aha! Now this I like!" I said. I then winked at the mirror and walked out of my room.
----------
I got to the dining room only to find it deserted. Everyone must have finished while I was getting ready. Well I didn't mind. I sat myself down and poured some milk into a bowl. I then got some cereal and poured some into the bowl of milk. I grabbed a spoon and started to eat
----------
I had finished eating and walked outside to find everyone gathered at the ship. I then walked up and saw Celine with a frustrated look. "It's about time you got here! You know, we can't wait all day just for you to pretty yourself up!" she yelled.
"Well, I'm sorry! I...I just didn't look presentable!" I retorted. Seriously...Celine has been giveing me attitude problems lately...I wonder why...
"Does everyone have everything ready?" I heard Ernest ask.
Everyone then answered, "Yes!"
"Ok then, all aboard!" He shouted and everyone started to walk into the ship.
It was so amazing! There was such technology all around. This must be a pretty powerful ship.
"Everyone, this is the ship's bridge. We'll be operating everything from in here...so it's best if you stay out of the way for everyone's sake." Precis said. "Over through that hall is the elevator which will take you to the lounge. There you can eat, sleep, talk, whatever. If you need to contact us," Precis said, nodding at Ernest and Opera at her right," then use the Com-Box in the lounge to do so. We will lift off shortly. So everyone get ready."
"Umm...Precis...I've been meaning to ask this. How do you know where to go?" Bowman asked. Some murmuring in agreement could aslo be heard.
Leon then stepped up next to Precis. "Ahhh! That is probably the best part of the ship. With science and Heraldry...we've created a machine that scans items, and determines their place of origin in the universe. This ship will then target that location and start going to it." Leon said, smiling. That kid can sometimes be a bit full of himself...
"Ok...now everybody get to the lounge. We shall be departing soon!" Opera shouted. Everyone then went to the elevator to go to the lounge.
----------
We had been traveling for a while. Dias was sitting in a chair...Either in deep thought or sleeping...Celine was talking with Bowman on the sofa. Noel and Claude were sitting at the bar drinking...something. While I was sitting at a table with Rena, Ashton, and Leon. We just kept talking about random stuff...and we were running out of topics. Then I remembered that I had some cards with me. I pulled them out from my purse and laid them on the table.
"What are those?" Rena curiously asked.
I grinned."It's a card game. I got it as a present a while back. It's called Elemental. It's like a rock-paper-scissors game. Each person draws 6 cards. One person goes first, and it goes clockwise in turns. You want to put down all your cards first. Whoever does that wins. The one who wins five rounds, wins the whole game. Now how the game works...If there is you have to beat the the card on the table. If you can't, then you have to draw cards until you can. Oh...and if a certain element card is down...you can play and Add Card card. These cards have the element on the back and have a picture of two cards on the front. So if you have the Fire Add Card card, and then card on the table is fire, then you can play it. Then the player after you must draw two cards. Here are the cards: Water beats Fire, Fire beats Ice, Ice beats Wind, Wind beats Earth, Earth beats Lightning, and Lightning beats Water. A Holy Card can beat any card on the table. It also lets you add another of your own card on top. Ready, everyone?"
"Yea...sounds simple...," Ashton said, giving me a strange look.
Leon shook his head. "I shouldn't waste my time on silly games like this."
Rena looked at him and winked, "Aww...come on. It'll be fun!"
Leon sighed and said, "Alright...I'll play."
----------
"Yay! I won!" Rena shouted.
Leon said, "Waste of time..."
Ashton nudged him with his elbow and asked, "Then how come you kept screaming when you started to lose?"
Leon just looked at the table and we all laughed.
"That was fun. We should do it again sometime," Rena said.
"Sure," I said.
Then at that moment we heard a buzz come from the Com-Box. It was Precis. "Everyone get ready for a rough ride. We're gonna ride through the planet's atmosphere!"
We all looked around at each other as the ship started to rock. It then started to shake violently and we all fell off our chairs.
"Ugh...this isn't very comfortable...," I exclaimed.
After a while the rocking stopped. We then got up and heard another buzz. "Everyone...we're gonna crash land soon...We didn't make it through the atmosphere too well...So one of our engines have failed. So get ready!" She yelled.
We then sighed and got to the wall and held on tightly for the impact. After a few suspenseful moments, we hit the ground. Everything was flying around in the lounge.
"Ahhh! This is suicide!" I heard Leon yell.
After a few more seconds of violent shaking it all stopped. We all slowly walked up and went to the elevator. Thank goodness it still worked! We went down to the bridge and saw Precis, Ernest and Opera slowly rising to their feet. "Are you all alright?" Precis asked, her voice shaking.
"Yes...everyone is fine...," Claude answered.
"I wonder what it's like outside...," Noel said.
Dias stepped up to the door and casually said, "We won't know unless we look..."
He opened the door and we all followed. It was so ugly! It was like a waste land. It was dirt everywhere. There were some dead trees here and there. There was also the big ditch created by the ship when it trailed along the ground. At least the sky was still blue.
"Hey! Look over there! It looks like that mountain in the sphere! There's also that strange formation of rocks at the foot of the mountain!" Leon yelled.
"Precis went to look and then jumped with excitement. "Yes! This means that we're at the right place. Lucky! Come on everyone! Let's go!" Precis exclaimed and started to run off with Leon right behind. The rest of us looked around at each other and ran off after the two.
Author's Note:
Whew...yes...the whole ship mechanism probably sounds strange with the scanning and targeting...well whatever. I like it! And for people who don't know...The Elemental card game is based off of Tales of Destiny 2's Whiz. I would've been more detailed with the game if I hadn't been so tired...Should get myself some caffeine...wOOt! Well hope you enjoy this chapter, and thanks for all the reviews I've gotten! ::Gives cookies to all who has given him reviews:: (Sorry...ran out of milk...)
Edit: Ugh...for some reason the asterisks that were SUPPOSED to show jumps in time...wouldn't show up...Hope the hyphens do...
