[ NewWorld ] Part 1: You are here Part 2: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1097547335/ Part 3: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1115188833/ An original story by PokemonGL17569 Hey and welcome to my new story! This is a story I made in two parts. This is the first. The story is like 500 words a part. This will be a sci-fi story, and the TN is a map of the solar system it takes place in. Note: Inner thinking is asterisks, like this: *I am awesome.* Thats all! (Story in Notes and Credits)
Part 1 00:00:05:00 PRIOR HYPERDRIVE COMMENCEMENT D H M S “Mission Control, we have five minutes. Begin final checks, people!” “Alright, alright! No need to be tense, Alvin. I’ll get ‘em going.” “No need to be tense??? It’s five minutes till this spaceship activates its relativistic warp energizer and rips a hole in the fabric of the universe!” “Alvin, explain to me how we are going to get this right if the guy who is supposed to respond to all the checks is panicking.” “I’m not panicking!” “You’re pretty close. And yet you signed up to be mission commander of the NewWorld.” “JUST START THE CHECKS ALREADY!” “Fine.” 00:00:03:00 PRIOR HYPERDRIVE COMMENCEMENT D H M S “NUKE PWC?” “NUKE PWC is go for hyper.” “Shields?” “Shields is go.” “SAM?” “Go.” Alvin checked the screens of the control center. Suddenly he noticed a flashing blue light. It was next to the countdown to hyperdrive. “Mitchell, we have a blue in the central monitoring.” “Signaling, we have a blue in the central.” Alvin realized that although the sound was coming through the radio, Mitchell was speaking to someone in Mission Control. After a pause, Mitchell announced, “That’s a signal we have a minute till hyper. All crew members must strap down.” “Crew, strap down immediately!” Alvin barked to his fellow crew members. “We're good,” called Sarra and Victor. “NewWorld, you are go for hyper. You shall go on a great journey to another star. You shall advance mankind’s boundaries.” [10] [9] [8] “Are you ready?” [7] [6] [5] [4] “We’re ready.” [3] [2] [1] “CHSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOMMMM!” 00:18:54:26 POST HYPERDRIVE COMMENCEMENT D H M S They were here. “PHRPS[1228],” exclaimed Alvin. “What does that stand for again?” Victor had a terrible memory. “Really? You can’t remember? It stands for Possible Hyperdrive Reachable Planetary Systems.” *This is why I’m mission commander,* Alvin thought. “Leave me alone, I have to talk to Mission Control.” He turned on the radio receiver. “Earth, we have arrived at the PHRPS[1228] system.” “Okay. Activate the ion engines for PHRPS[1228]c. Have you pinpointed its location?” “Yep.” Looking over his shoulder, he called, “Sarra, you’re our engine specialist. Fire up the ions.” 01:01:37:24 POST HYPERDRIVE COMMENCEMENT D H M S “PHRPS[1228] c is the planet that’s like Mercury, right?” “Yep.” PHRPS[1228] c was indeed like Mercury, but it had a brilliant orange hue, like Mars but more intense. Great mountain ranges radiated across its rugged surface. *It’s beautiful.* Suddenly, there was a beep from the dashboard. “You have now entered orbit of PHRPS[1228] c,” barked a robotic voice. “Alrighty then. Sarra, you make sure the ion engines are shut down. Victor, make sure the orbit is stable.” “I can’t remember how to use the gravitational orbit monitor,” Victor sounded quite indignant. “What are you going to do?” “Just use the manual. It’s in there somewhere. Me? I’m going to call Mission Control.” There was a hint of annoyance in Alvin’s voice. “But-” “Do it.” With that, Alvin walked to the communications room.
