The Two Lives Of Aaron Wade: The Gamer The Heir - 191 Space Virus I

“Engaging primary engine thrusters, secondary engines active, all coms system green, Warp engine 20% charged. Ascending, we’ve cleared Patmosian air space, engaging secondary engines thrusters.” Darke’s bland voice rang out through the ship’s intercom as we ascended into the sky, looking out the window and the tree of revelations left behind I couldn’t help but smile, it didn’t take too long for it to look like a small green weed in my sights.

“We’ve cleared new Gaia’s atmosphere, approaching planetary blockade, activating interstellar passcode.”

New Gaia is a beautiful place, I mean it was sort of what the creators of this game, Aka my family and a bunch of AIs envisioned the earth to be like in a couple million years into the future. And quite honestly I think they were right in their depiction, this place was filled with so much trouble, so much lies, so much politics…so much humanity. Obviously no matter how many years are given to us, no matter how many world ending scenarios we’ve had to experience, we always fail, we always disappoint. We’re still the disease, and the cure for humanity is something I don’t think will ever be found.

I already sort of missed it, in one way or another this planet has sort of become my home in this world, I’ve made a connection with it that I’m sure I won’t ever forget, there were still things and people I care about in that planet. But whatever the case this was now in my past, and that was left to do was look forward to the future. I shifted my gaze from the massive ball of green, blue, grey, white, golden brown and multiple colors and face an endless expanse of lights in the inky blackness of space. My next Adventure is somewhere out there, at least until when it’s time to leave for the other dimension.

There was a fleet of ships with their weapons active pointing at us, the pass code Darke had given them was being verified, and thankfully is panned out. I didn’t want to imagine what would have happened if those politicians on new Gaia decided to double cross us. The ship’s rearranged their formation creating a hole for us in this very ridiculous, very expansive blockade of ship’s that actually encircled the entire planet. However having ships encircle a planet would be ridiculous, because quite frankly it would take as much ship’s as there are people on a planet to cover such a distance.

Each ship’s were stationed quite a distance from each other and then electrical currents of some sort were connected between all the ship’s, creating a sort of net to prevent any unauthorized ship’s from leaving the planet or entering it. We went through without any problems, and this was when we could well and fully say goodbye to new Gaia.

“Guild leader where would we be heading to next?” Qitar asked me as she sat on the seat besides Morrigan behind me, while I sat besides Darke as his co-pilot.

“We’re heading to Orous Darke, Zareth has a date with the dwarven Emperor.” I said to Zareth as I looked at the massive Star aka the sun in the distance, the many other twinkle twinkle Little stars all around.

“Orous is a major planet on the north Easter quadrant of the known space, basically you could say it’s right at the edge of the known universe. The Warp engine is strong enough to make that jump at once, by mine and the ship’s nav system calculations, we’ll need to make five Warp jumps, with each jumps interspaces between each for a duration of 24 hours to give the engine enough time to recharge, we can only do it this way if we want to achieve maximum distance and sorter travel time. If we make shorter jumps it will take us more than five days to get there, probably two weeks if not more.” Darke explained as he flipped some switches.

“Basically after every jump we’ll have to fly through space for a day before to allow the engine to recharge, before making another jump. However we will have to plot our course properly, fuel would be a problem, so we’ll have to set a Warp course for planets that can fuel the ship. We have enough for two jumps, after the second we’ll need to make a stop.” Darke explained as the ship moved forward.

“You should make sure the planets we have to stop at are relatively peaceful, quite frankly I would prefer if we don’t see any more action for a while, we need a break.” I said to Darke as I stretched my body.

“Cant say that I disagree with you there guild leader, every moment we spent on Gaia, was us being roped into one fight or the other, I’m so tired I feel like retiring to a village on some remote planet and buying a farm.” Qitar muttered as she leaned back against her chair. Safe to say I actually agreed with her, there’s just been too many drama and fights hovering over us.

“Its alright Darke, make the jump, after that me and the others would have to log off, we’ll be back in time for the next.” I said to him as shifted my gaze to wild expanse of space.

“Warp engine is charged at a 100%, external shields are functioning at full capacity, fuel is at 98%, all systems green. Engaging Warp drive in 5…4…3…2…1…Warp drive engaged.”

There was a sharp jerk as we were pushed back into our seats, the whole universe outside of the ship seemed to have warped, twisting in and out of itself, with lights blurring into each other, and making weird shapes as they did so. I felt sick for a moment, like my insides got twisted into pretzels and those pretzels were further smashed into bits with a blender( if that makes sense.) And then the world righted itself, the ship came to a stop in front of a frozen Asteroid belt, there were a bunch of mining ship’s around and within the massive cluster of asteroids. We made the first jump without any problems, however.

“Thank God that’s over, I almost puked my kidney out.” Morrigan complained as she brought her menu and subsequently logged out, her body falling lifeless where she sat.

“Well that’s just rude…shouldn’t she have said good bye?” Qitar muttered as she looked at me. I gave her a small smile in return and said.

“I’ll make sure she tells you good bye next time, you guys should be careful and if anything comes up, get Houki to contact me, is that okay?” I asked as I made myself comfortable on the seat.

“” Yes Guild Master!”” both Darke and Qitar answered at the same time, looks like my title really has changed in front of them ever since the guild was created. It made me wonder if the choice to change the way they address me was made on their own, or if they were prompted by the system that recognized me as a guild master and then as my subordinates. Whatever the answer might be, we’ll figure it out together.

“Log out.”
