Here's chapter 8 everybody.
Chapter 8: Preparing for Ulysses.
It's the last day of school and the Tunesquad are glad to have survive their first year of high school. After gathering for a group photo and having conversations, everyone heads home. Tina was walking with Daffy and Bugs on the way.
"Hey, Daffy, do you plan on seeing Ulysses?" Tina asked.
"If Stonehenge does its job and a fragment doesn't hit the city, then yes." Daffy replied.
"I just hope the end of the world is not near. Stonehenge has to do its job." Tina said.
Some Tunesquad members, like Tina, will be worried this summer due to the fact that the world is in the face of an alleged impending apocalypse. In 1994, the International Astronomist Union discovered an asteroid first labeled '1994XF04' and later renamed 'Ulysses' is on a collision course with Earth. The asteroid is scheduled to collided with Earth on July 3rd, 2009. The US government decides to build Stonehenge, a battery of rail guns capable of targeting and destroying asteroid fragments in orbit. Two other countries are building asteroid interception systems, but are not complete. So the world is depending on Stonehenge to do its job since the scheduled date is next month. Tina is not looking forward to this probably apocalyptic event, although she will be watching the meteor shower. The Ulysses has been her subject all day. As a matter of fact, the Ulysses has been the main subject for weeks. With July 3rd coming, everyone has been preparing for this event. Anyway, Tina said goodbye to Bugs and Daffy and heads home. A few minutes later, she arrived at her house and finds her mother in the kitchen.
"Hi, mom. I'm home." Tina said as she lays her backpack on the couch.
"Hi, sweetie. How was your day?" Susan asked.
"Not to good." Tina said.
"What happened?" Susan asked.
"You know, Ulysses." Tina said.
"Oh, everyone been talking about that, huh?" Susan asked.
"Yeah..." Tina said.
Susan noticed a concerned look on her daughter's face. She decides to talk to her.
"Look, Tina. I know you're worried about this event coming up, but if this is gonna be the end of the world, at least we'll die together as a family. Now, the only thing we can do is pray to God." Susan said.
"What about Daffy? What about my friends?" Tina asked.
"Well, you should talk to Daffy." Susan said.
"Okay." Tina said.
The rest of the day, Tina keep thinking about what her mother said.
Three days later, Tina and other Tunesquad members, except Alvin and Lola, were at Bugs' burrow for a Tunesquad meeting to discuss the Ulysses asteroid and the aftermath of it.
"Wait, where's Lola and Alvin?" Daffy asked.
"Daffy, I told you, Lola's dad forbidded her from seeing me, remember? Besides, Tina will tell them about this meeting." Bugs replied.
"Oh yeah, forgot about that." Daffy said
"Okay, anyway, so as we all know, the Ulysses is gonna be falling to Earth next month. Now, if Stonehenge does its job and we get to live for another day, what do we as the Tunesquad go on from there?" Bugs asked.
"Well, hopefully, this will change the Jocks from spreading propaganda about us." Petunia said.
"Nah, I'm pretty sure the Jocks aren't gonna change, Petunia." Bugs said.
"I say we-we-we-we start hanging out more-more-more often." Porky said.
"We always hang out at Pizzarriba." Bugs said.
"Well, we should start praying more often. After all, we can die anytime now." Tina said.
"Tina, you're right. We have to pray." Bugs said.
"Yeah, me and Bugs go to Chruch every Sunday and we don't want to go to hell." Daffy said.
"Me too." Tina said.
"Okay, so we have to pray more often guys." Bugs said.
"Agreed." the Tunesquad said.
The meeting continued until the Tunesquad hangs out at Bugs' burrow. Tina talks to Daffy in the guest room, where Bugs' relatives would stay at during the Bunny's family reunions.
"Daffy, do you think we'll live to see another day?" Tina asked.
"Tina, if we do live to see another day, I will hang out with you more often and love you more." Daffy said.
Tina and Daffy hugged each other before Tina cuddles with Daffy and watch the TV. After hours of hanging out, Tina heads home and gets prepared for Ulysses.
That's the end of this chapter. Please review.
