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.638Please respect copyright.PENANACZWPzRpzh8

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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAtNZwAGTNtz

“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAa5xOsNbkZe

“Um, what is this?” I asked.638Please respect copyright.PENANA8e7Btj0soS

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. 638Please respect copyright.PENANA3ZUqVcKbSt

“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANADGvFRvpGko
638Please respect copyright.PENANABzEwxAK4B9
“What the hell does that mean?” Someone shouted out.638Please respect copyright.PENANA3ccDcPtWuj

“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAlrV5HWRF7Y
638Please respect copyright.PENANACqTUtYzK4c
“You’re kidding me?” Another exclaimed loudly. I was in shock; they actually trusted us to go to Earth?638Please respect copyright.PENANAwl669cQEio
638Please respect copyright.PENANAfIMpy4eK7g
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAceGHhHNgLi

“Is this some complete and utter bull-“638Please respect copyright.PENANAPDuwTPZDkY

“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?638Please respect copyright.PENANA5mZ47iarKQ

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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAwWqYMo1x6H
638Please respect copyright.PENANAzVRTaTkBgH
“I hate this” I heard a girl mutter.638Please respect copyright.PENANA9IontQUa56
638Please respect copyright.PENANADzsCSGTzVZ
“Glad I’m not the only one” I said to her.638Please respect copyright.PENANA7K5rXrmNl6
638Please respect copyright.PENANAfSB6I6irKV
“Hey. I’m Amy” She greeted, and took her hand out.638Please respect copyright.PENANA3jSqg89V6z
638Please respect copyright.PENANA6JQqTSdiM8
“Tessa” I took her hand and shook it.638Please respect copyright.PENANAzPM4rWytAk
638Please respect copyright.PENANAQB24srkkyz
“This is a suicide mission” Amy said.638Please respect copyright.PENANA9o9jhwNHj2
638Please respect copyright.PENANA1SEQ8K7k2I
“True. What’s your story? How’d you get arrested?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAPT5Xsy7YPd
638Please respect copyright.PENANAPxZYBFU8FO
“I assaulted a guard,” Amy shrugged, and said it like it was the most natural thing to say. “What’s your story?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAbhJx50ZQrx
638Please respect copyright.PENANAM0uUXjSvWW
“Um…”638Please respect copyright.PENANAcA1KvCf3Jr
638Please respect copyright.PENANA5NkvTbHnb1
“You don’t have to tell me if you don’t have to” Amy added.638Please respect copyright.PENANAk1vgH8zde6
638Please respect copyright.PENANAPtqz3e8kL4
“I’ve actually been there since for two years,” I admitted. “Since I was arrested for my parent’s crimes, which was treason.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAmfOXRhWgiV
638Please respect copyright.PENANANIigbt0WeY
“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?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAdTqXezC1wJ
638Please respect copyright.PENANAuibKbC4KUz
“No!” I laughed.638Please respect copyright.PENANAGYTFTFAqes

“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!638Please respect copyright.PENANAvv2G1OBJ02
638Please respect copyright.PENANAPiNaS538Mg
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAKRnF1ZLk6V
638Please respect copyright.PENANADJebjVC7j6
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANA5JCwR0elFp
638Please respect copyright.PENANAGLl6n2xdWG
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAGGyuuF198W
638Please respect copyright.PENANAj6CIbWw07y
638Please respect copyright.PENANAtLVTssu7kN
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.638Please respect copyright.PENANA33B0HWcBFh
638Please respect copyright.PENANAVVP1JhqaJY
“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!638Please respect copyright.PENANAqFTdBgqcoX
638Please respect copyright.PENANAgDjrKXsdGz
“You don’t know there could still be gas out there” Someone said.638Please respect copyright.PENANAt3Bl2DLt2L
638Please respect copyright.PENANA81a7fGH3PM
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAW1vnSbaVVU
638Please respect copyright.PENANAGGpmP007MG
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAC9xnZtPmoU
638Please respect copyright.PENANAXogdKX7nCh
“Tess?” Logan was behind me, I hear him. “Aren’t you that girl from my class two years ago?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAo5zyKuVjw7
638Please respect copyright.PENANAw1JzJ3cg18
“Yeah,” I turned around to face him. “It’s me.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAf4ST2Y414a
638Please respect copyright.PENANA8IRKqIEdgR
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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAKvCHLV4r0k
638Please respect copyright.PENANAl0jnl4ljYg
“All of that stuff, it never happened,” I sighed. “New home, new beginning. How’d you get on this starship here?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAKRdz1yaAFc
638Please respect copyright.PENANAS6gFFenf51
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAQyjoOuQNFC
638Please respect copyright.PENANA1SrByrdSqD
“Logan? Logan!” It must’ve been his little sister, crying from inside the starship. Logan rushed inside to comfort her.638Please respect copyright.PENANAbHBaxcaQZS
638Please respect copyright.PENANA7r4vk6qa61
“Tessa, could you get a med kit? Its inside” Amy called. I stomped inside, to see Logan sitting down with his sister.638Please respect copyright.PENANAjanJg27YJ0
638Please respect copyright.PENANAMttzf9kn8m
“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.638Please respect copyright.PENANAJwtoA0buOw
638Please respect copyright.PENANAB7HGdEEBap
“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’.638Please respect copyright.PENANAncbWa35odH
638Please respect copyright.PENANAlR5FD5Q58S
“Are you going to go, or just stare at us?” Logan snapped.638Please respect copyright.PENANA89YdG3A1oY
638Please respect copyright.PENANABnAPJhyLNU
“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANATs6E2xqNfq
638Please respect copyright.PENANAM0uMnS9QVV
“My parents are doctors” Amy said.638Please respect copyright.PENANAIkrcdzV4ZZ
638Please respect copyright.PENANABksmUFEcc8
“What’s that?” I curiously asked to the thing she was currently using.638Please respect copyright.PENANAs6oK8ueoyO
638Please respect copyright.PENANAT0QrKfch80
“Stitches,” She replied. “The ancestors used it before. You sew up the skin together.”638Please respect copyright.PENANA1UsevzhCf9
638Please respect copyright.PENANA1SO5ORQUIt
“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAHwog1nI4YA
638Please respect copyright.PENANA98TqZwujlM
“How’re we going to go? There’s no map or anything?”638Please respect copyright.PENANAkULZizkQiv
638Please respect copyright.PENANAc0ShdwVNo2
“Think again,” Dark hair flashed in my eyes. “I found this on the abandoned building.”638Please respect copyright.PENANA2j7Ag3cJ5u
638Please respect copyright.PENANAJH4IlXM5iN
“Well done Joe” Amy muttered.638Please respect copyright.PENANARoFyJXLquR
638Please respect copyright.PENANA8CsJsZKtsB
“Why the hell did you go inside an abandoned building?” I scolded. “There could be anything there.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAOcMnEV7MKZ
638Please respect copyright.PENANAKRdAsluyu8
“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANA31jeXgL1S9
638Please respect copyright.PENANAsx23UbKlRn
“There’s one marked ‘Underground. B. And it has directions.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAuZLLnz38AJ
638Please respect copyright.PENANAo3W1NSm855
“Great, let’s go then!”638Please respect copyright.PENANAw85waqasDe
638Please respect copyright.PENANAwfGQyqz0S1
“Hold your horses,” I stopped. “I told you, there could be anything out there. We at least need more people.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAdPcftpie1M

“Why the hell did you bring me?” Logan groaned.638Please respect copyright.PENANAaooGYbAUFY
638Please respect copyright.PENANA7nx92EyjOB
“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAJScSdSbJVq
638Please respect copyright.PENANAeNyC3OY4eM
“Ha!” We all laughed.638Please respect copyright.PENANAaNvtZYjHWl
638Please respect copyright.PENANALeGK8D8kAq
“Well, I still need to look after Gwen.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAnFRaYV5PzS
638Please respect copyright.PENANAhJYPiWy7fG
“Please, they’re all too scared of you,” I said. “They know what you can do if someone hurts Gwen.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAPOmGB12qRJ
“That’s right.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAFYO692YzeQ
638Please respect copyright.PENANAo2RVUidIFe
“Joe, could you stop that?” Joe was singing some lullaby to comfort him, while fumbling with his fingers.638Please respect copyright.PENANAMRqlLkFEfg
638Please respect copyright.PENANABJcmyoIutO
“I always sing crappy songs to myself when I’m nervous” He admitted.638Please respect copyright.PENANA6CyyxSTRuL
638Please respect copyright.PENANAu8hloE0tSS
“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.”638Please respect copyright.PENANAq4hakPm0lT
638Please respect copyright.PENANAS1n1LZ9I8T
638Please respect copyright.PENANAQ1ctPPeCPU
