Iscehznut - A Wild Escape

Leave it to the kids!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!!

The ship rushed in the vacuum of deep space at full speed, tearing the darkness. Both Ora Speedy 127 and Alrm 781 moved in the same trajectory around the Almonda planet. The velocity doesn't seem to drop as both speed up closer and closer to each other moving in the opposite direction.

In the Almonda Control room, everyone was sprinting and pacing here and there trying to connect to one of the space ships but in vain. "IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO MY DAUGHTER, YOU KNOW WHAT I'M CAPABLE OF", the President warned the officers who were occupied, struggling to alert them with transmitters, satellites, and every apparent way. All the digital displays in the room glinted with the ship's orbital motion. All of a sudden, the officer who was examining the display stood up in shock. " Sir, look at this! Both of them are progressing opposite to each other and if this persists both the ships will clash!!", he warned, referring to the screen. Everyone gasped in shock and stared at each other without knowing what to do. "You guys are dead remember!!!", losing his calm, the President yelled furiously as his eyes welled up with tears. Fear began to consume him as he was scared for his baby girl's safety. He lost balance and fell on the floor helplessly while a lady the same as his age rushed into the room and held him from falling, "What's going on here? Is my baby girl safe?", she asked worriedly with a confused look on her face. "I don't know what to do… This is gonna be a disaster", the president sobbed, pointing at the display. She got up from the floor and went to the screen to get a close look at it. Everyone stepped back leaving a way for her as everyone looked at her with respect equal to the President. "What the hell is going on here? Someone, care to explain?" she squealed furiously, glancing at each of them for an answer. "Ma'am, Miss Nora is in danger, uh..her Alrm 781 ship is moving straight opposite to the Speedy 127, another ship which is in a catastrophe landing situation…", he clarified, stammering in fear. She observed the screen for a minute and turned to face the crew of workers behind her. "Paul, take the President to the lounge and stay beside him, don't leave him alone", she ordered him in a strong tone without any anxiety. Paul, the President's bodyguard, tried to get him to the lounge but he doesn't seem to move from the place. " No, I'm not going anywhere, I want my daughter safe. She is not experienced with this… I told you not to let her drive alone and you didn't listen to me. Just see now…", he cried in anger, staring at his wife with his painful eyes. "Do you think I want my daughter to get hurt?? Please just leave to the lounge, I'm taking care of this! Take him Paul", she gestured to Paul to take him to the Lounge no matter what. No matter how powerful a person was, as a father even the President became helpless and vulnerable as hell when he got to know that his baby girl is in danger. The bond between a dad and a daughter is inexpressible… He knew what she meant and so he managed to drag him out of the Control Room to the Lounge.

"Ma'am, we tried connecting to both the ship transmitters but we couldn't connect with either of them…", one of them informed her, hesitantly, bowing at her with honor. "She is my daughter and 100% she is not stupid to drive blind and hit on the other ship!", she said confidently, standing there with her arms crossed. In the display, both the ships continued to move, opposing each other without any deviation. "Ma'am, but…", when one of the officers was about to say something, the lady pulled her transmit card out of her jacket and passed it to him, "Transmit to her with mine. I know there is nothing to worry about, but let's just confirm it!". Her boldness and confidence were so loud and no one dared to speak anything against her words. " Yes, Mam!", the officer nodded and plugged in, he transmitted to Alrm 781. "Who is the Captain of that ship? Did you get to speak with him?", pointing at the Speedy 127 in the display, she asked curiously. "Well, Aiden Jack from Orano Planet is the Captain. He contacted us for an emergency as his ship's West Wing was injured and he requested an emergency landing, Maam", he just confided in her everything that had happened previously. To everyone's surprise, she smiled, "Aiden! He is one of the best mission experts at Orano Planet. He is here for his holiday! We were informed about this but he is relatively early…", she wondered at him, "If Nora doesn't have a solution then this boy will definitely have. Leave it to the kids, if she doesn't respond to the connection!", she instructed the authorities, stepping to the couch nearby." Mam are you sure it isn't risky to let them handle alone…" she shook her head with a genuine smile on her face." You are wrong and you guys have no idea who he is. This is nothing to him compared to the missions he has succeeded in", she guaranteed everybody with confidence as the authorities nodded at her in relief.

Here in Alrm 781

"AN INCOMING CONNECTION!"

Buzz buzz!

A notification jumped in the screen display to Nora's right. "Sis, there is an incoming connection from Almonda space emergency board, shall I connect it?", Cat informed and remained for Nora's approval, having the call on break. "Not at the moment sweety. I don't want any distractions at the moment and don't alert me if there is any more incoming connection from the emergency board", following Nora's orders, Cat removed all the incoming connections leaving the inbox empty. Nora focused on the trajectory movement as she switched on the pressure points and other velocity parameters in the display to her right.

"AN INCOMING CONNECTION - #1 PRIOR"

Buzz buzz!

Again there popped another notification at the end of the screen. "Sis, it's mom!", Cat notified as she pinned the connection to the main display. "Auh!! Mom must be worried", Nora heaved a deep sigh, connecting to the call as she slowed down the ship's velocity a bit. She put on her headset, "Hey! What's up, mom!?" Nora sounded casual."Baby, it's the Speedy 127…", before her mom could finish, Nora intruded, "Mom mom, please! I don't have time for this, just trust me I'm gonna land in one piece", she assured, cutting off the connection.

The space between both the spaceships started to shrink and shrink as a few astroseconds passed. In the control room, everyone's eyes were fixed on the display which glowed with their trajectory movement. Tension starts to build up among everybody as time passes.

BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM!

Suddenly, smoke filled the air of the Shuttle landing plot of gate A75 and everyone rushed out of the control room to the A75 Lander Plot...
