They say the accidental gas bombing of our Earth was terrible. Only the lucky survived, and were sent on a rocket ship to Mars, where there was already a secret starship set up, with enough resources to survive and set up a whole new place to live. And here we are, several generations later, alive but barely.613Please respect copyright.PENANAf3uRNLSchD

When the door opened, I felt like vomiting out everything I had left. It still didn’t feel like the time to die yet. The doctor sat next to me, and got something out from his luggage, something that was going to rid all of me.613Please respect copyright.PENANAoqzoTIhgJO

“Tessa Hope Newton, aged 16” I daren’t look at the needle that was going to kill me. There was a pinch on my left wrist, oh no. Goodbye life. “Finished” The Doctor said, and got up. On my arm was a pill inside my wrist which was merely visible, and flashing a red light.613Please respect copyright.PENANAvTYwrjDcXE

What felt like an eternity later, I woke up, feeling very drowsy? A seatbelt strapped me to my seat, and there were many other kinds waking up in front of me, also waking up. 613Please respect copyright.PENANAX9Q1rQbxLR

“Hello to all on the rocket ship,” A voice said, and I saw Dictator Smith on a screen. “If you’re on the ship, you have committed a crime before the age of eighteen. What you have to do now will be rewarding, and fail to do so, the punishment will be severe.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAxxQ6rqad9A
613Please respect copyright.PENANArj1VdwxpxZ
“What the hell does that mean?” Someone shouted out.613Please respect copyright.PENANARVUdMu0ia8

“You have all been chosen to set up Earth again, be the first ever to enter Earth again. We are sure the radiation is gone from Earth, making it safe to live in. Therefore, you are being sent to set up Earth again, and make it re habitat again. The rewards will be promising: Live your life on Earth when the others get there and all your crimes will be forgiven. Fail to do so, there will be punishment.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAM4G6i7hvvS
613Please respect copyright.PENANACbzozM0W0h
“You’re kidding me?” Another exclaimed loudly. I was in shock; they actually trusted us to go to Earth?613Please respect copyright.PENANAxpEdcrlBJC
613Please respect copyright.PENANA59xWWL7ZCL
“Get to the underground base, as soon as possible. Good luck and I hope to see you again” That’s when the screen went blank.613Please respect copyright.PENANAHxBrVw0boI

“Is this some complete and utter bull-“613Please respect copyright.PENANA4Y5FM2kgpn

“Hey, language! There’s some kids here” A girl shouted back, and looked at the frightened kids in pity. It made me sick, how could they use children for this?613Please respect copyright.PENANAHgoDCKVWIt

Soon, the chatter spread like wildfire. Some were extremely scared and looking around the underage criminals nervously. Others were laughing and chattering excitedly, knowing it was their chance to live again.613Please respect copyright.PENANAwZ8WzJQ3Rb
613Please respect copyright.PENANAoveVSztFhM
“I hate this” I heard a girl mutter.613Please respect copyright.PENANAgWPcUEKZTj
613Please respect copyright.PENANANlbI5EQWN1
“Glad I’m not the only one” I said to her.613Please respect copyright.PENANAjJuG32PTqC
613Please respect copyright.PENANAXAHeawpPZF
“Hey. I’m Amy” She greeted, and took her hand out.613Please respect copyright.PENANAzenTN1S4fT
613Please respect copyright.PENANAj0UxxbHjk5
“Tessa” I took her hand and shook it.613Please respect copyright.PENANAfjKyB0zT4p
613Please respect copyright.PENANAScRPjWGr1g
“This is a suicide mission” Amy said.613Please respect copyright.PENANA7txoRQ8yMd
613Please respect copyright.PENANAe6dV5yGaKX
“True. What’s your story? How’d you get arrested?”613Please respect copyright.PENANA3kUsDlGn2h
613Please respect copyright.PENANABStmJFBUix
“I assaulted a guard,” Amy shrugged, and said it like it was the most natural thing to say. “What’s your story?”613Please respect copyright.PENANAReCt4ba49P
613Please respect copyright.PENANAdFivkllPdO
“Um…”613Please respect copyright.PENANALb3peNuYNI
613Please respect copyright.PENANA1sGQLvCrez
“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t have to” Amy added.613Please respect copyright.PENANA3BBaXapjeA
613Please respect copyright.PENANACP03VamHMV
“I’ve actually been there since for two years,” I admitted. “Since I was arrested for my parent’s crimes, which was treason.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAHstvKvr69U
613Please respect copyright.PENANAKm6cOQpJjt
“Wow,” Amy was speechless. “I have no idea how you went that long and didn’t go insane,” She paused for a bit, “You’re not insane are you?”613Please respect copyright.PENANAlY1DzP51TC
613Please respect copyright.PENANAysCBV7MiWu
“No!” I laughed.613Please respect copyright.PENANAFtT6tSRmFA

“Hey, look!” We all saw the big blue planet, which now looked huge. Blimey, it’s got a lot of blue! From our starship in Mars, the Earth was just a white dot, with the moon even a smaller white dot. From now, the Moon was in a spectacular view, looking bright and round. Jeez, and they said our ancestors actually stepped on the surface!613Please respect copyright.PENANAgTkOfYb7Ug
613Please respect copyright.PENANATw2LyF1tzH
“Okay, buckle up. We’re about to straight fall into Earth, there’s gravity there” I warned, but some people were already out of their seats, floating about on the zero gravity.613Please respect copyright.PENANAimvwQblKZN
613Please respect copyright.PENANAc8gOUnvtP9
“Hey, guys! Unless you don’t get back on your seat again, you’re about to get crushed like a watermelon by all the gravity we get when we make our crash landing into the ground!” I shouted. They still ignored me.613Please respect copyright.PENANAf1r93QSQaR
613Please respect copyright.PENANAkk4Gl9S9W9
“All these people are going to get splattered across the floor when we reach the ground” I predicted. And as I did, our starship suddenly went faster and faster, and it took a moment for everyone to realize that we were making our dramatic crash to Mother Earth. The starship went super fast now, and we could see some clouds by now, but it still didn’t stop the heart in my throat feeling I had inside. Some of the little kids were still bawling their eyes out, not knowing what was going on.613Please respect copyright.PENANAEGaLuj36jV
613Please respect copyright.PENANAUtG06xvY60
613Please respect copyright.PENANAv1VEVIBIjN
Some bumpy minutes later, we finally made our ungraceful splat into somewhere. The floating bodies were now dead and laying on the floor. We all took our seatbelts off and looked at each other, all conversation was dead, and everybody was quiet, until somebody had to tear it.613Please respect copyright.PENANAz0jgD9FBI5

“Well, isn’t someone going to open the door?” A male’s voice said. I looked at him, recognizing him a little bit. It was Logan, from two years ago, from school!613Please respect copyright.PENANAIlQJce0Tep
613Please respect copyright.PENANALjuZDAdNtH
“You don’t know there could still be gas out there” Someone said.613Please respect copyright.PENANAPQCLJMYSCr
613Please respect copyright.PENANAcs3XXnXqdi
“For fuck’s sake,” Logan kicked the door two times, and slowly stepped outside. “It’s safe!” That made everyone excited, and they rushed to see outside. Logan still had a snappy mouth, I thought.613Please respect copyright.PENANAtCNqcpH67Y
613Please respect copyright.PENANAx3kZ6KYTau
“Tessa, are you going to come outside? Look, it’s raining!” Amy laughed and looked up and the water pouring from the sky. I ran outside, and felt the cooling water on my skin, which was very refreshing.613Please respect copyright.PENANAKG0OK3irWY
613Please respect copyright.PENANA5yLnojG0xL
“Tess?” Logan was behind me, I hear him. “Aren’t you that girl from my class two years ago?”613Please respect copyright.PENANAEG0QQncV0j
613Please respect copyright.PENANARjnuS7tO0N
“Yeah,” I turned around to face him. “It’s me.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAyJet5q7Ara
613Please respect copyright.PENANAeyirvGzlY6
He chuckled. “You caused quite a commotion when you were arrested. Who would’ve thought out of all the people there, you’d be the one to get arrested.613Please respect copyright.PENANAkTmNsG9KsF
613Please respect copyright.PENANASPLWMzpfOw
“All of that stuff, it never happened,” I sighed. “New home, new beginning. How’d you get on this starship here?”613Please respect copyright.PENANAsP3UsiFc0o
613Please respect copyright.PENANA0iTWg1LRbi
“Theft,” Logan replied casually, and saw my nervous expression. “It was food my little sister, okay?” Huh? I didn’t know he had a sister.613Please respect copyright.PENANAoZOkVAaVqF
613Please respect copyright.PENANApubX93WBRn
“Logan? Logan!” It must’ve been his little sister, crying from inside the starship. Logan rushed inside to comfort her.613Please respect copyright.PENANAnPAPOHMvRF
613Please respect copyright.PENANAu57p2ihJr9
“Tessa, could you get a med kit? Its inside” Amy called. I stomped inside, to see Logan sitting down with his sister.613Please respect copyright.PENANA7Q6jOoJiyu
613Please respect copyright.PENANAlsdjLXfQs4
“Gwen, it’s okay” Was most of the words I could hear him saying. Reaching the med kit, I was about to leave, but the scene was too cute to not see.613Please respect copyright.PENANAIhrVIlFPxA
613Please respect copyright.PENANAt142tzyBDb
“I want to go home” Gwen sniffed. She looked like the cutest girl ever, only looked about six years old, and her hair was dark brown in a fringe, and her eyes were so grey and mysterious. Maybe it’s because of what our ancestors said as ‘Eyes are the windows to our souls’.613Please respect copyright.PENANA7I43pSZTHV
613Please respect copyright.PENANA495NTjwGeV
“Are you going to go, or just stare at us?” Logan snapped.613Please respect copyright.PENANAS8IX4rB8zX
613Please respect copyright.PENANATcnPNB7OuE
“Sorry,” I blushed, and went outside once more, and handed it to Amy, who was treating an ill patient. “I didn’t know you could heal people.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAj5HRYGRmYj
613Please respect copyright.PENANAJ4E3OE13L5
“My parents are doctors” Amy said.613Please respect copyright.PENANAz9u2dVuOF7
613Please respect copyright.PENANAWerVle2eNb
“What’s that?” I curiously asked to the thing she was currently using.613Please respect copyright.PENANADR6F6O7Puk
613Please respect copyright.PENANAbipH9pBzsI
“Stitches,” She replied. “The ancestors used it before. You sew up the skin together.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAQEbhQbAXOH
613Please respect copyright.PENANA1cI2fHqpk7
“Ew! I’m not sure I want to know anymore,” That was disgusting, how could they use that before? “Besides, remember what the dictator said? We have to go to that underground base. It’ll have the things we need to survive.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAJp5sgflR8I
613Please respect copyright.PENANAHRJj4e8b2g
“How’re we going to go? There’s no map or anything?”613Please respect copyright.PENANA7y4tet7qC5
613Please respect copyright.PENANAPTBeg9dC7n
“Think again,” Dark hair flashed in my eyes. “I found this on the abandoned building.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAbTLsMyamH8
613Please respect copyright.PENANAP72Xrd5VWS
“Well done Joe” Amy muttered.613Please respect copyright.PENANAC8ZTMeNQcm
613Please respect copyright.PENANApSdISvbi5d
“Why the hell did you go inside an abandoned building?” I scolded. “There could be anything there.”613Please respect copyright.PENANALQ6kJTf4cH
613Please respect copyright.PENANAHFUB4R2iZw
“Oh please,” He scoffed. “If there was, they’d be dead. And look at the map. We landed into England. Explains why it’s rainy.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAF7a62k5qmW
613Please respect copyright.PENANAmXTyw5zR5E
“There’s one marked ‘Underground. B. And it has directions.”613Please respect copyright.PENANARK9y81QY2s
613Please respect copyright.PENANArYjgdcJHGf
“Great, let’s go then!”613Please respect copyright.PENANAOQAzVw2tbR
613Please respect copyright.PENANAistzN2KiiY
“Hold your horses,” I stopped. “I told you, there could be anything out there. We at least need more people.”613Please respect copyright.PENANA6p5eoVSQor

613Please respect copyright.PENANAmKHmqGBz8b
“Why the hell did you bring me?” Logan groaned.613Please respect copyright.PENANAAGxBEpiN4P
613Please respect copyright.PENANAAXGzyrIa4w
“You want to find food, don’t you?” Logan nodded at Amy. “Good, now does anyone have a cork? I need to shut Logan’s stupid gob of his.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAdZgYAviU8m
613Please respect copyright.PENANAtQUYYUiJ5h
“Ha!” We all laughed.613Please respect copyright.PENANA438I8vODEA
613Please respect copyright.PENANA2bpEdJ3XcX
“Well, I still need to look after Gwen.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAnnY4oustti
613Please respect copyright.PENANATfjIgC8tnE
“Please, they’re all too scared of you,” I said. “They know what you can do if someone hurts Gwen.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAG8eZxBuAVp
“That’s right.”613Please respect copyright.PENANAZnOVlNCdal
613Please respect copyright.PENANAU2xQkkXynC
“Joe, could you stop that?” Joe was singing some lullaby to comfort him, while fumbling with his fingers.613Please respect copyright.PENANALDyQ2XvKth
613Please respect copyright.PENANAibo7eUjUkg
“I always sing crappy songs to myself when I’m nervous” He admitted.613Please respect copyright.PENANAUqFLadSvUC
613Please respect copyright.PENANAc97oMVt1zH
“It’s true” Amy looked tired. “I knew him before. He’s always singing weird lullabies and old songs passed on my generations. You get used to it in a while.”613Please respect copyright.PENANArEXm88MQXP
613Please respect copyright.PENANA3oVufEGWK0
613Please respect copyright.PENANA7Rmui4Lyr8
“I’m questioning myself on why I agreed to go with you” Logan complained.613Please respect copyright.PENANAFbZGLguB26
613Please respect copyright.PENANAUYufRdMQJr
613Please respect copyright.PENANA5wdjQijVgq
“And I’m questioning myself on my I asked you to come with us.”
