Come on… Come on… I pushed the accelerator to the maximum, my space craft wafted in the void of nothingness, being chased by a few terror bots behind, proliferating as I was maneuvering the space craft.
Come on… Light speed… Please… I jammed a few buttons frantically, hoping the sequence I entered was able to overwrite the system, to let me use the leftover fuel to enter light speed. If I did so, the space craft might not be able to move after travelling at light speed.
Zap! Zap! Zap! the shots were too close.
A few more minutes in front of me were a field of asteroids, if I can shake them off there… but I won’t have enough if I don’t shake them off… I slammed the controls in exasperation, in dejection, in desperation.
The space craft glimmered, vibrating in a vigorous velocity, protruding a ray of hope. I felt my whole system turning inside out, nauseated.
A lull passed, nothing was in my radar, granting me the providential save.
