Equipment and Armament
The computer has now shrunk to the size of a pen. A laser display projects from its tip when a switch is pressed, and it operates by voice recognition, solving any problem in seconds just by speaking the command. I also had to study various types of software, as handwriting has become highly advanced these days.
Until now, the only off-world colony has been established on Mars. A habitable environment was created there using the World Engine, an engine capable of terraforming many planets to be Earth-like. My spacecraft carries a small-scale World Engine.
My vehicle is equipped with several other interesting things:
The DNA of millions of animals, plants, fish, and birds from all over the world is stored in a special freezer.
A small amount of valuable dark matter is on board. Just a tiny bit can be used for very large operations, such as destroying an entire planet in minutes.
Support Vehicles: A two-passenger air vehicle and a flying bike.
One hundred drones, all equipped with sophisticated cameras and laser detectors that can easily spot any object, including mineral deposits. They also carry a torpedo and a gun for shooting with arrows.
I also carry a modern handgun, which is one of my favorite pieces of equipment. This gun contains ten types of ammunition, each with a different function.
Nuclear Bullet: One bullet can obliterate an entire village. Freezing Bullet: One shot will freeze a thousand square meter area of fire, solid like ice. Laser Bullet: Contains a powerful current that will engulf the target upon firing. Light Bullet: Thrown into the sky, it illuminates the surroundings for a period of time. You can do more things with it.
The Departure – A Final Reflection
My journey was scheduled for February 1st. Many well-wishers, including my mother, father, siblings, friends, and relatives, came to bid me farewell. Saying goodbye to my mother, father, and siblings was the most heartbreaking moment. I couldn’t hold back my tears; we cried together for a while. Then, I said a final goodbye to everyone with a lightened heart and boarded my ship, the Velocity15.
I put on my special astronaut suit and took my seat in the cockpit. Niya was sitting in the seat next to me. I gave her a thumbs-up, and she responded with a charming smile that immediately lifted my spirits.
I started the engine and offered a silent prayer to the Great Creator. I turned off the handbrake and pushed the jump gear throttle. The moment we broke the Earth’s surface and entered space at high speed, I clicked the lightspeed button, and the hyper-driving engine powered on.With a final, teary-eyed look, I silently paid my respects to the Creator’s wonderful, blue creation—Earth, the heart of mankind. I went to the navigation system, selected the planet Proxima Centauri, and hit the punch button. Our spacecraft, Velocity15, raced away at the speed of light.

[…] To prepare for the mission, I underwent two years of special training with the British Space Fleet. This included: Special Alien Commando Training: How to protect oneself, how to fight enemies, and training to operate several sophisticated weapons. The spacecraft carries several missiles, and I trained on how to launch them and identify targets. Combat Training: How to deal with sudden space dangers, including supernovas, black holes, and wormholes. Alien Communication: A mastery of several alien languages and the ability to detect communication through a sixth sense. I carry a sixth-sense receiver that allows me to communicate with them easily. Technical and Medical Skills: Experience in spacecraft repair and medical emergency training. To Be Continued …Episode 1Episode 2Episode 3Episode 4 […]

Midway through our journey, we were caught by a supernova. Its immense gravitational field instantly snared our spacecraft, dragging it into a wormhole. With a rapid, violent gyration, the wormhole spat the Velocity15 out the other side and into an unknown sector of the cosmos—all in a blur of motion.”Where are we?” I asked Niya.She scanned the navigation system. “We’ve been shunted to a different universe. I can find no familiar stellar coordinates or recognized signals here.”We were truly lost, accelerating toward an unseen future.I gazed, entranced, at the luminous currents of countless stars tearing across the galaxy’s vast expanse. The sheer blaze of the nebulae’s colors made me momentarily forget our perilous situation.Comets suddenly appeared, streaking violently across our viewport. The infinite star clusters of this new universe winked on and off like cosmic fireflies. We sped along unfamiliar orbital paths, traversing hundreds of light-years.I stared with intense curiosity at the Oort Cloud—frozen gas, ice, and dust—as the superclusters rapidly dwindled in the distance. I was constantly losing myself in the boundless, majestic beauty of this creation.Enveloped in the mysterious allure of the ultra-bright, endless cosmos, I continued to press forward, driven by a mesmerizing dream.Searching the navigation system among a multitude of planets, I finally detected a habitable world. Its atmospheric components were strikingly similar to Earth’s, appearing as a green sphere ringed by a bold red band. It would take several days to reach it. With eyes full of wonder, a strange thrill pulsed through me as I focused on the alien world.Our spacecraft quickly began its long final approach toward the unknown, foreign world…. to be continued…… Episode 1Episode 2Episode 3Episode 4 […]
