My Story: Day 871: 5 Minute Freewrite: Monday - Prompt: panic

in hive-161155 •  5 years ago  (edited)


So this is my first attempt at a Freewrite 5 minutes flew by much faster than I thought. I type fast, and can usually put my thoughts down at a rapid pace, but dang it's so short. Oh well, here is my story:

############################################################################

“Set a Course for Pluto”, commanded a tall fierce figure.
The navigator confirmed, “Aye-Aye Captain Course Set for Pluto”
The crew braced for the next command from their captain;
“Initiate Warp”.
The ship lurches forward and begins its long, boring trek to Pluto.
Captain Comparrio stood up from his chair, “The Bridge is yours”.
As he Walks away First Officer Lampsing steps up, “Yes, Sir”.
While Captain Comparrio walked to the Grav Lift the ship suddenly decelerates throwing him to the floor.
The interior lights turn red and a klaxon alarm sounds in the background.
A distant crew member can be heard, “We have entered a warp interdiction bubble, scans show 3, no 4, no five…”
He is interrupted as Captain Comparrio stands up, wipes a bead dripping blood from his brow.
“Don’t Panic, we have trained for this people…Shields Up!”

Ever since the hostile takeover attempt by Justin Sun I have been getting more into steem, as I feel a lot of others have. Make sure to get your votes out, I have, and I plan on getting more involved in the other communities out there.

Follow me in my journey through steem once again!

Welcome to the Freewriters!! Five minutes do go by fast 😄
Interesting that you have rekindled your steem presence because of Justin. As much as all of this is upsetting, the way the community has come together is really fantastic.
Hope you write with us again!

I plan on it, I am home on disability at the moment, so no time like the present. I have been going insane bored out of my mind. So maybe this freewrite can be like my daily crossword to keep my brain from turning to mush. Bear with me as I shake off the cobwebs, I used to believe I was a decent writer. At least 2 decades ago though, lol

You are doing great!! The beauty of the Freewrite is that all is good. Some days, we are brilliant and others, just gibberish comes out. All good. The daily practice keeps us getting better and better - or at least entertained :)
