Across the endless void of space, billions of stars shone brightly and magnificently, entertaining the three young country companions, as they are observing the beautiful starry night. Adrian Scott, 16 years old and the oldest of the three friends stared endlessly at the space, hoping to see a Federation Starship orbit around Earth. As he was laying comfortably at the meadow, Adrian thought of something very important, "Hey Nathan." Adrian called out his best friend while he lay beside him. Nathan Fairwood was his best friend in the whole world. Well, to be honest it's his only friend that can actually tolerate his adventurous and violate behaviour. Naturally, when Adrian was in trouble Nathan is always around the corner clearing up his mess. Nathan was two years younger than him and they had known each other ever since they were kids. Adrian remembered two years ago, Nathan was often picked on school and occasionally he had beat up several kids for making fun of him. Now two years later, Nathan was as big and tall as him. As expected, nobody at school would dare to pick on Nathan, since he is as big as Adrian.

"What do you want to be when you grow up?" Adrian asked.

"Well," Nathan was indeed surprise at the question Adrian was asking him while sitting beside him and gazing at the stars. All his life, he never thought of Adrian as a thoughtful person or than again a thinker. He often sees Adrian get embarrassed easily when dealing with a personal or emotional situation. Then again, he could be wrong, "Well, I don't know. I think I wanna be an Artist. Something like what my Dad is doing." Nathan replied.

"What!" Adrian looked at Nathan with a surprise look on his face and for what it seems, he was determined to get a proper explanation. "Come on, you want to be like your Dad?" He said.

"Not like my Dad, I just like playing the piano. That's all" Nathan answered truthfully.

"How about you Lucitia, what do you want to be?" Adrian immediately directed his question to his other friend after Nathan disappointed him in becoming a pianist. When Adrian asked Lucitia, she took couple of minutes to think what she wanted to be, "I want to be a singer!" She answered happily.

"Why?" Adrian pondered at Lucitia's choice of career.

"Because, I love to sing to the whole world." Lucitia answered with a warm smile on her face while slowly gazing into Adrian's brown eyes. "And I want to sing for you and Nathan"

Lucitia given the boys a slight wink and both Adrian and Nathan slightly blushed from her yielding spirit. Lucitia Audeviana, barely 7 years old was a fair and beautiful child. She has a lovely almond shape eyes with long eyelash that blends her sapphire blues eyes very nicely on her curve petite face. Her long golden-white hair lied perfectly between her shoulder blades and occasionally several strands of hair would cover her pale cheek and her lovely eyes. She was wearing a long white sleeve and silvery dress that her father recently brought for her from France. It certainly fitted her beautifully. She was a goddess of beauty.

"What do you want to be Adrian?" Lucitia asked heartily.

Adrian blush off his emotional thoughts from Lucitia's comments and quickly announced his chosen career, "I wanted to be an MS Pilot for the Earth Federation!" Adrian yelled proudly.

"Are you really Adrian?" Lucitia asked.

"Yes Lucitia, I will be an MS Pilot and I will protect you and the world."

"That is so cool!" Lucitia smiled sweetly and cheerfully, after what Adrian had determined to do with his life.

Adrian stood confidently the praise Lucitia is giving him, "And you Nathan" Adrian point directly at Nathan's face, "You are going to join with me!"

"Me?" Nathan was obviously surprise from Adrian's strong determination of getting into Military school but him? In the a military? Impossible!

"Yes, I mean you Nathan!" said Adrian with a serious tone in his voice, "You are going to be an MS pilot just like me. You and I are going to be in the Federation MS Academy, and join the Earth Federation most famous Elite taskforce, the Londo Bell!"

"Adrian" Nathan was getting concern the conversation was heading at, "You know that I'm neither explorer nor a fighter."

"So what Nathan, why are you being so up tight and a coward?"

Nathan looked at Lucitia and then toward Adrian, "Adrian, I wanted to be…"

"Lucitia, do you think Nathan is best suited as an MS pilot or musician?" Adrian was indeed determined to get his way, one way or the other without ever letting Nathan have a chance to explain himself.

"Well," Lucitia took a moment to think, "It seems Nathan is better off as a musician, since he doesn't like exploring or fighting. Yes, it would be fun to have Nathan playing the piano while I'm singing."

Lucitia smile openly to Nathan, when she stated her decision. Nathan smiled happily at the decision Lucitia has came to. Indeed he could spend more time with Lucitia, when he becomes a musician. He always liked Lucitia more than Adrian.

"However," Lucitia slowly responds when she saw Adrian looking very disappointed, "It would be sad, if Adrian and Nathan are separated. If you two are separated, both of you are going to be very sad, and so would I. It would certainly break our heart and our friendship."

Nathan thought for a moment of what Lucitia had said, about the friendship he had with Adrian. However, he always wanted to be with Lucitia more. Certainly Nathan cannot deny that he doesn't want to lose his best friend. But what can he do, he thought to himself? After thoughtful consideration he decided what must be done. "I decide to be an MS Pilot for the sake of our friendship." Nathan said, but the truth is he did it for the sake of Lucitia.

"Are you really going to be a pilot Nathan?" Adrian said with a hopeful expression.

"Yes, I am Adrian." Nathan replied with a slight smile on his face.

"Then its settle," Lucitia said with a smile on her face, "from now on we are going to work hard to fulfill our dreams together."

She placed her right pinkie in front of the two boys and said "Friends forever?" The two boys immediately respond by placing their own pinkie together and join with one and the other. A promise they have all made together that no only will they work together to fulfill their goals, but to stay as friends forever.

They all said together, "Friends forever!"
