msx80 Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Sector 5 Secondary Warehouse, Andy is piloting his Octan Mule Andy: "And this shift is finally over, i can go hom.." Loud Speaker: "Employee Andy Rigel is required at the personnel office immediately!" Andy: "Oh my god, what did i do this time?!" Personnel Office Andy: "Please don't fire me!" Officier: "Oh don't worry my friend! We have wonderful news for you! We heard you want to be a real pilot, so we're reassigning you to a completely risk-free exploration mission!" Andy: "Really?! They told me nobody is sent to space before years of work!" Officier: "That's right, but we.. ehm.. like you very much! And we needed an expendab..ehm extraordinary pilot like you!" Andy: "Wonderful! I like you too!" Officier: "Great! So, You'll scout the planet Hennigan II for the Octan Corporation. Tomorrow you'll meet the mission specialist on sector 6!" Andy: "Oh.. isn't Hennigan II the planet where we lost a team, some days ago?" Officier: "Oh yes, but you'll just orbit it, you surely don't want to land right? Ahah" The day after, Sector 6 Operative: "Hi, i'm your operative contact! And this is your Octan Wasp, one of the smallest exploration ships of the corporation!" Andy: "It's awesome!" Operative: "So jump in! I'll explain the controls!" Lots of explaining later Operative: "Good, now i'll press this button and you'll take off!" Andy: "What? i'm starting now? But i have to pee!" Operative: "And.. GO!" Andy: "AAAAAHHHH" In space Andy: "Finally, i'm in space! My dream has come true.. sniff" Andy: "If only this ship had a toilet!" Some time later, the planet is in sight Andy: "That's the planet! I'll make two orbits as required by the mission and head back!" Radio: "Perfect! By the way, is everything ok with the ship? is the fuel gauge indicating enought? Just saying.." Andy: "Uhm.. hey! It's almost on empty! How can it be?!" Radio: "Ops! There must have been some problem with refueling! Looks like you'll need to land on the planet!" Andy: "But.. it's dangerous! some people died there, and they were experienced scouts!" Radio: "Don't worry, we'll help you! Maybe you could take a look around for us, since you're there.." Andy: "Oh.. ok.. thanks for helping me!" Radio (wispering): "He can't be buying it.." Andy: "Buying what?" Radio: "Oh nothing, nothing!" Later Andy: "I can see some ground, there's a lot of vegetation there! Landing will not be easy!" Radio: "Oh, you'll surely find a way!" Andy: "AAAHAHAAAAAAAA" The ship crash-land on a tree Andy: "I landed! Almost!" Radio: "Well done pilot!" Andy jumps out Andy: "Well, this planet doesn't look that bad! Maybe i worried for nothing!" Radio: "Yeah, maybe!" To be continued The Octan Wasp Edited May 31, 2015 by msx80 Quote

Dannylonglegs Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 I love the tree! The small craft is so cute! I love the anglature of it! Your piloting skills do seem a bit... below standard. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote
shmails Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Made me laugh, and that is about the best a scene can do for me, so well done. The ship is great, I hope it can be repaired! Quote

narbilu Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Delightful, japanees Kawashita look to the Octan Wasp Quote
Lady K Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 (edited) Nice Octan Wasp. Love the story! Edited May 31, 2015 by Lady K Quote
Dannylonglegs Posted May 31, 2015 Posted May 31, 2015 Delightful, japanees Kawashita look to the Octan Wasp I swear our Scientists have not been reverse engineering acquired Kawashita technology. We are certainly not employing competitive intelligence agents to get our hands on your advanced tech. Nope. I just read the story! I love it! I totally love the oppressive corporate feel your character isn't totally oblivious to! and it seems like my previous suggestion that your piloting skills were sub part was inaccurate! You did the best you could with what you were given! ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote

Space Terrapin Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Haha, very funny!! Lovely little ship. I like your take on Octan Corp's treatment of its employees, seems pretty similar to how I'd imagine it! Quote
