The perfect sky
Chapter
2
Neo Terra
Soon we were home free from the ship, I looked
out the rear porthole it was oddly shaped it looked like a giant
oriental dragon made from stuff you find in a junkyard, I could
barely make out the words "Slave Dragon XVIII" painted on the
side since that thing was "slithering" though space. "Excuse
me." I felt a light tap on my shoulder I spun around to Rem "yes?"
I looked into her eyes. I didn't even have to search for a soul it
seem to have just jumped out. It seemed she shared a death as violent
as mine. It was full of pain but it was pure and white as her fur.
"Can I ask a question?" I smiled sweetly at her and responded
"sure." She started to get a pouty face like a 10 year old would
"Where the hell am I, what am I and who the hell are you?" Well I
guess she wasn't all sugar but a bit of spice as well. I sighed and
tried to explain it to her in a gentle manor "Ok. As for where
either this is the afterlife or we been brought back to life 10,000
years after our death, now for what I think I don't have a
reasonable answer for that, And for who I am Tyro Heartnote and I
just saved you from becoming a harem girl." She started to ease off
and give a small smile "Well that explains a lot except for what am
I." "Well you probably haven't played that video game but I
think we're half pokemon basically." She looked over me I was
dressed in a red tee shirt with a red button up with the sleeves
rolled up and I was wearing a pair of very light brown painters pants
with a hole in the back for a tail. Since I couldn't find a pair of
shoes that would fit I was "barepawed" I looked over her she was
dressed in a similar outfit just with a long skirt and a smaller tee
shirt to reveal her belly "Frankly you look a bit silly, you look
like a cartoon character." she said letting her smile grow to a
toothy but cute grin "Your one to talk misses Raichu." I smiled.
I heard a small giggle come from her. Right then I felt a rumble "Ok
one more question what the hell was that!" She yelled in panic. I
looked out the porthole we were caught in the atmosphere if the
planet and the pod was starting to break up and if I didn't do
something fast our escape would be for nothing I started to look for
retro rockets, boosters, parachutes, something to slow us down I
found a button that said "Turbo" I pressed that button and
instead of slowing down we were speeding up and the ship was breaking
up faster! I looked for something I found what looked like an
altimeter I remembered what my ex air force uncle taught me "If you
reach at least 8000 feet you can eject safely." I said out loud.
Rem looked at me with a strange look like I was crazy. "Something
my uncle taught me we're already 9500 if this hold long enough we
can bail out in breathable atmosphere look for parachutes or
something that we can use." "Ok." she nods
9100 feet. She found a life raft and a small can of helium for it.
8700 feet. I found a couple of large space blankets and some rope.
8300 feet. I found a weapon a flamethrower Rem and me looked at each
other and said in sync " I got an idea!" right then the glass
started to break. 8000 feet. Outside the glass on the rear porthole
busted out and an orange and silver mass exploded from it. It was
makeshift sky raft. We watch the pod starting to spin out of control
and explode. We were over ocean floating towards a skyline I got up
to see it was beautiful a grand city it looked like a forest giant
treed that were lit up like skyscrapers and below them a great canyon
with all sorts of buildings in attached to their faces. The ocean
seemed to fall into the canyon like Niagara Falls with a river going
though the bottom of the canyon. This is what I dreamed of it was
beautiful what culture lived here actually worked with nature rather
than against it the technology was advanced telling by the lights
flying above and in the canyon. Rem was caught up in much awe as I
was she accidentally broke the seal on the helium can turning it to a
makeshift propeller we hurtled toward the city Rem gave a scream of
joy when we took off meanwhile I was trying to make sure the flame
from the flame thrower didn't touch the blankets. Soon we were in
the canyon. Air traffic was swerving by to avoid us unfortunately one
of the cars cut one of the ropes supporting the blankets and we were
dropping towards the bottom of the canyon until we landed into one of
the roofs of the building good news it broke our fall bad news it was
a police station all of them pokemorphs all of them had their guns
pointed at us. 5 minuets latter we were in our own jail cells
apparently they mistaken us for slavers due to our outfits. I sighed.
"Not one human ever since has our kind truly become extinct?" I
looked over to Rem she was crying she started to sob then to my
surprise she let out a long howl something inside me drove me to join
her both of us started to howl like a pack of wolfs then one of the
officers came in he was ninetails he kinda looked like Leon from RE4
"Ok you two you can quit it apparently your not slavers you two
were going to be slaves but you escaped. According to your memories
you two are from the 21st centaury we hardly get some "relics"
around here I'll take you to the immigration center so you can be
processed like all the other relics." I walked out of the station
with Rem the cop turned around and said. "By the way I'm ken
welcome to neo terra!"
