You are up to something... 36/05/3404 ON LAST DATE. CRASH DATE 1[Edited to the local dialect "Engrish" at the request of my host human, secret keeper and roomate, Amaefuna] My name is Locar don, a Thesbian recruit aboard the Star-ship Recluse. Following the recent scarcity of mineral resources, our vessel was on a mission to trade plutonium from the Scabites in Sector 3, a route that would take us directly through the infamous milky-way galaxy and human habitation; thus, we decided to go behind Saturn's inner rings to avoid detection. Albeit a risky venture, but the Thesbian nation has been in dire need of energy following the last political conflict on our planet. Captain Uber don is a skilled pilot and can fly circles around the best of our fleet. Unfortunately even he couldn't maneuver around Saturn's deadly rings. We came across an unexpected meteorite shower which tore into our left flank and destroyed five engines. The Captain was able to steer the ship to the only habitable planet on our records where we crashed violently into a canyon. The impact killed everybody on board except me, which is why I have the authority to input this data in keeping with protocol. On first inspection on my exit of the starship unto Mars, it became obvious that I would need to do an update on our history books. The Red Planet is dead. I have been wandering around the canyons for days and have not found a living soul. There are a few silicon based shrubs here and there, and some sign of bacterial life, otherwise the planet is empty. High levels of radiation from their atomic wars still remain, a deadly reminder of the terrible things that happened here. All the cities and countries, all the people have been blown away to red dust. What we thought was the most habitable planet is no longer habitable. Mars is dead. They finally destroyed themselves. I shudder at the human race. I had to return back to the Ship after a while to see if the life-detection computers were still working so they could scan how far Earth and Venus had developed. Surely there would be some food and water there. Four of the escape pods had survived the crash intact and they had enough fuel to take me to either of the planets and back; not much but it was a start. I knew if I stayed here I would certainly die. The only source of food left here were the bodies of my dead colleagues and much as I knew they would be honored in the afterlife to have their bodies sustain me, I didn't want matters to get to that level of desperation before I acted. I carried Captain Uber's body from the command chair, grimacing at the deep gash in his forehead where his brain matter had spilled out. He hadn't decomposed at all as the ship's life support systems kept the bodies fresh even though their souls had long departed. I placed him beside his Mistress Tempi, both had finally had their wish of dying on the same day. I sort of went into a trance, carrying all eighteen passengers and placing them side by side in the ship's bay, making sure everyone was accounted for. I said a tumat of prayer for the peaceful progression of their souls and then proceeded to take command of the captain's chair. I ordered the computer to scan the nearby planets and sure enough Earth and Venus indicated thriving signs of life. Earth's life capacity was at a full 100% while Venus was at 89% and Earth was closer so I decided to make plans for Earth. Life forms visible were humanoid on both planets but Venus'es thick cover clouds made for a much reduced population. Earth had 6,214,230,451 humanoid forms inhabiting it. It would be much easier blending in there. I spent the rest of the day burying my fallen colleagues and collecting all that I would need for my journey to earth. I set up a rescue beacon on Mars in case any other star-ship would dare pass by this route so they could pick up the signal and come rescue me. I hid three of the pods in the famour Kar-Ek mountain, now a rubble of its old self but riddled with enough caves to make a good hiding place. I did this as a precaution in case it was Demetrons that found my crashed ship first; knowing how scavengeous they can be. The yellow sun is just setting over the horizon of the Red Planet. I stare wistfully at it one more time. Mars was a wonderful civilization once. I hope the humans have learnt their lesson. By this yellow sun's rotation it would take me three days to get to Earth. I entered the Escape Pod with my scant belongings, put the vessel on autopilot, said a prayer and activated hyper-sleep. The last thing I heard was the gentle throbbing of the pod's engines as they came to life, lifting me off the surface of Mars, off this once wonderful and glorious planet. Here I come, Earth.[/quote] |

Continuation of prologue But it came swiftly, and it raged. The violet wind lingered, whooshing threats and damning the sands to sway at its discretion. Mighty like a captain on a sea of sand it rose high and flattened, gathering sand and dust. Moving against the storm’s unkind whips, the girl fought her way through, cursing at nothing in particular until the sands completely blinded her and she feared she was lost. Darkness and storm overwhelmed her and she began to cry. The storm, seeming to discern a crying girl dawdling under its supremacy became more aggravated. It bellowed at her, judged and called her names. ‘I know most than all. I see all than most. And I have heard all about you’, the storm seethed, calling her, ‘footstep’. She cowered in submission. ‘It was my fault, and now my burden’, she whimpered. Her tears mixed with sand dust, smearing her face. After the storm had its fill, in the welcoming calm, it spoke to her and she tried to listen. It talked of the places it has seen and been. It talked of the beauty of the desert. The girl couldn’t tell if she was asleep or awake. It was so surreal. She cried again and when her wails were finally lifted to the storm, the storm was already gone. The storm had told her, the desert is enticing, the desert is treacherous. But she knew this already. 01 IN THE SUMMER of the last hours of daylight, on the day she completed her fifth month in her new job, he came in and found her alone. All day he had worked tirelessly, slogging with other laborers. He loved the desert heat, the sweat, the hard work and the commitment out there in the vale. The challenge ripped him, tanned him and left him tired, but not too tired to come see her… To be continued… Follow the story in my blog site http://www.blacpen.com Like and follow my Facebook and Twitter page #Kingblacpen to follow up latest updates. |

Prologue It is a land of stiff foothills with deep green unfolding below into an isolated village within a broader unpopulated fertile land where the earth beneath runs black with the hard material that burn fiercely. A settlement with abandoned mines, traditional and modern dwellings, farmlands and thriving township wholly integrated, where the old gods are still revered as much as the God of the new faith, peopled with the educated, pious traders, hunters, more farmers and a dwindling lineage of warriors, and of course, the idles and the drunks. Young and old, men and women living in their times, nothing too big was big, nothing small was too small, all was significantly enough, all was appreciated. It is a land of simple but ambitious folks. Every day was the same as every other day with a sun and a moon. This monotonous community is like an old maiden without hopes of a husband and hardly does something unexpected ring across, and when it does, it is sure to echo throughout the length and breadth of the community.

She dragged the warm air and sighed, ahead in the dark, shadows of sand dunes travelled far and wide. Her heart dampened, unlike her tropic home, it is mostly barren and hot in this region. Out here in the sandy terrain, the night was lonely and quiet, but not to her. Her reverie persists. Yam harvest isn’t far. The excitement will gear from faces to faces, home to home; you can even feel it on the walls. It is a typical feeling across the land.

Every season was better than the previous. The gods, new and old favored those who put in the work. On the days set aside for rest, papa would gather his close friends in his large compound.

But, not this season, an absentee daughter had left him with a broken heart. ‘An Absentee daughter,’ she tried a weak smile. The thought of her home had fastened the thudding in her heart. Anxiety rose from her stomach and stuck at the back of her guts. Her hand trembled and moist threatened her brown eyes. Gently, she eased her way down another sand dune and a fast approaching wind unsettled the sands too quick, almost blinding her. The wind grew bolder and the once peaceful sand wasn’t so peaceful.
