"Bloda, we have a report from the X-2 Voyager, If you want me, come and get me". "Set a fleet of four squadders out to check it out" said Bloda. The deck of the ship was roaring with waves of sonic jets. Men that were too close got their hearing blown out. The ships took off like rockets. The smoke was so thick you could hold it. The ambassadors held another gathering. "Whats the word on the subject, Bloda?" "Nothing."

The X-2 Voyager thundered through the galaxy. The squadders were packed with phaloumpshious missiles to kill. Frug managed to lock up most of the inhabitants. Standing guard near jail cells for a jail break. Somebody crept up behind Frug and smashed a metal pipe over his head. Frug, feeling the wound, opens the door behind him and throws the enemy in. Frug walked, pacing back and forth, when three shipmates snuck into the control room and got themselves armed for bear. Frug could hear them working and raced to the scene. A grenade went off which triggered all ammo in the ammunition supplies to do the same. Frug took a handgun round to the shoulder before finding cover. The three shipmates Chazmo, Unth and Barker all covered in wreckage. Men quietly cheered knowing that they succeeded.....or not. Frug resumed his position in horrid pain with only a shot gun with three shots left and a pack of gun powder. He set up three traps of plastic explosives. An enemy passing by with a group of three other men hit one of the traps with his foot through the bar and a small explosion exploded all the other traps. The explosion disarmed the security system. Frug ran for the controls in the control room. He locked himself in so enemies couldnt control the ship.

The X-2 Voyager was pacing along when a sudden eruption from the belly of the ship caused some disturbance. The squadders crowded around the craft pumping it with ammo and laser shots. The Voyager was being attacked. Frug manned some turrets and shot some return fire taking out two enemy fliers. Two remained but on top of the ship one squadder had already landed, attached itself, and the men poured in the ship. The other squadder boosted ahead and dropped air charges blown out the rest of the turrets. With one turret left, Frug shot down the two squadders. The tip squadders men sprayed ammo through the ship presuming that al were against them.

The control panel was locked and the ship had to be landed. The fuel tank had been pierced and the fuel gushed into space threatening the existence of the already damaged ship. The enemies sent a single charge by an escape hatch and almost the entire ship filled with unruly flames and explosions. Frug jumped in a desperate act with a oxygen mask through the main glass pain and into space. His body ricocheted around and contorted like a rag doll.

The vortex in the ship pulled chairs, tables and men out gaping holes in the ship. Men that didnt get sucked through right away had their insides sucked out and squeezed through the hole in space. The X-2 Voyager plummeted into space with nobody to control it. Men locked themselves in lockers and closets to escape the vortexs mighty suction. Those who went in escape pods shot out and hurled into space and from the pressure of deep space, popped. some men went into hyper sleep capsules and made sure that they wouldnt be resurrected again for a long time. Out of fuel, the ship floated through space. Most men died of starvation.

That Christmas was a very poor one. They honored those who died upon the X-2 Voyager.

Chapter 3

However, Frug didnt die. In case of such an emergency, he would grab a small oxygen mask with a full tank. After about two hours of floating, Frug started to see an orangey planet and got caught in the orbit. He floated into the atmosphere and found that it was thick of alien insects. He lost all of his air when the insects punctured the tank, then in one great effort, he took his last breath and threw the mask. Half a minute later, he let go and could breath again, but the insects clogged his throat and rushed into his body. In his nose and in his lungs, all filled up with the tiny plague. His stomach filled and he started to cough them up because he could hardly breath. He crawled around and found a break in the swarm and threw up the rest using all his last strength he squeezed out dead insects from his back end.

Intestines half-eaten, he trotted for about six miles and sat down for it was getting dark. The seven moons lit the sky as he fell into a deep sleep. But what lies in the darkness of nightfall? where was he? Where was the ship?

Early the next morning he awoke to an earthquake. The wreckage of the X-2 Voyager plummeted into the planet. He got up, questioned himself and set off immediately.

After about two hours he came near a what used to be an entrance, he kicked down the door and a small bug took flight as he entered. He heard murmurs and hollow cries coming from a distance inside of the ship. He ran as quickly as he could, bounded over a pit in the floor and cocked his only shotgun.

Then he saw Ralph and Ralph is a purple fly creature with large lips, black pants, and a green vest. Ralph gave a yelp and took off when he saw him and backed up into a large lounge type room and shut the door. Frug attempted to ram the door down in several instances.

Finally, he kicked it down and Ralph shouted "get away". He punched Frug in the gut yet it had little affect on Frug. Ralph jumped back and crouched down in a corner far away from Frug. Dont kill me" says Ralph. "Its me, Frug!" Ralph opened his eyes and looked at Frug. Realization dawning upon him, he got up, walked over to Frug and saluted in military manner. Frug thought to himself that this was not required when your stranded on an alien planet.

"Gilberts somewhere around her" said Ralph. Frug walked away leaving Ralph in the lounge. About three minutes later he saw the same beetle fly towards him and land on his arm. The bug shot its proboscis into Frugs arm leaving Frug with a painful needle in his arm. He knocks it away shooshing it.

Then he caught sight of Gilbert who was walking down the hallway. Frug ran up to meet him and said "its me, Frug. What are you looking for?" "Looking for survivors and weapons", says Gilbert. "Any luck?" "No" responds Gilbert. "Have you seen Chazmo?" asks Frug. "No." As Frug and Gilbert ponder through the desolated hallways of the X-2 Voyager they come to a locker shaking blood trickling from the bottom vents.

Gilbert studies his laser pistol and shoots the lock off. It cracked off and clanked on the dusty metal floor. A wounded soldier fell out and hit the floor with a grotesque slap. His jaw was protruding and his elbow bone was jammed in his upper arm bone. He hobbled about four steps and wobbled to the floor saying "Frug, its you....youre the one who did this to me back then." "Frug, he works for Bloda, we cant have this." Gilbert unholstered his pistol and fired at the soldier. Frugs mouth dropped in astonishment. "Gilbert, well you arent one of the good guys are you?" "Hee hee hee, I guess not. Lets not kill Ralph because he can build us a ship back to Neravia."

As Gilbert hopped around, because he only has one foot, Frug wonders what he got himself into. He runs to Gilberts side and walks at his pace. "Gilbert, if you try to kill me, Im getting you first," says Frug. "Thats not coming for a long time" responds Gilbert. Frug, the might survivor feels a lump in his throat. He still carries the cocked shot gun and wonders if itll provide him with safety. He decides to break away from Gilbert and find the ammo lockers.

Frug paced on not knowing what he would encounter next. Through the darkness he could strain his eyes and recognize the shape of a figure, Chazmo. since he is dead, Frug just goes up to it and shrugs it off. The ammo lockers near. He had one shot left. of course there was a soldier as he kicked down the door in the ammo locker saving his shot in case of an emergency. An alien pops out who is damaged and dying who hid there for safety who is a Tripoltean. Frug looks at this pitiful life-form and beats it with the handle of his shotgun until it is unconscious. Frug rambles around and finds a crossbow with an abundance of arrows. It was a little treasure item the soldier kept because of sentimental value but any idiot could use a crossbow.

He shoots the last shell with his shotgun at the unconscious soldier to prevent a flaw in the plan. About seven hours pass since he broke away from Gilbert, his body ached form all the weight. He had three rifles, one crossbow, two shotguns, and a grenade launcher all well stocked and concealed ammo in his pockets.

By now alien life forms and plants were growing and breeding on the ship. Life grows on this planet almost three times faster than normal. Frug rambles around through the corridors following sounds and finds himself inside of the cafeteria auditorium. Gilbert and Ralph are sitting down by a torch talking to each other. Gilbert apparently found two sub machine guns and a hostage.

Ralph didnt quite understand why Gilbert was acting so cruel. That night they slept in the ship but Frug didnt sleep. The ship creaked in the wind. A light flickered on and off from Gilberts torch. the hostage was tied up with rope abut there was something strange about it. It chanted sayings in other languages. Saliva poured down his cheeks as it chewed at its rope. The hostage, a scarred body with protruding spines and long canine teeth. As he sat, he made designs in his skin by chewing on himself . Ralph was the first to wake the next morning. After rubbing the sleep from his eyes he noticed the hostage was banging his arm against the rope. He had shaved off the skin and sharpened the bone to a dagger like shape. It woke Frug by screeching something terrible. Frug was disgusted at the thing that is sitting before him. He had grown large blisters and welts all over its scaly body. Its limbs seemed to be singed and burnt. The skin was flaking off in large patches. As he came near it let out a long painful screech, it echoes through the room. Gilbert shot up.

The hostage instantly tears out his eye and throws it at Ralph. A long stream of whitish yellow puss jets out of the socket and on to Frugs boot. They both stumble back to Gilberts side. "What the heck!" said Gilbert.

Frug grabbed one of his shotguns and shoots the prisoners foot off. the hostage twisted and mangled his body on the cement, writhing in pain. Frug and Gilbert grab more rope and jump on it. After about two minutes of wresting the prisoner, they tied it up. "The beef is mine." Now Frug put two and two together and came up with "he is talking about Gastroknemeans." The hostage spit out a tooth and squealed in joy.

As they rested and ate some berries they noticed a small insect on the hostages neck Frug went up to it and just about touched it and a needle-like spine went through his finger. Frug yelled and pulled away and crouched down and wrapped his hand in his vest. Gilbert unsheathed his knife and stabbed the insect but the knife shattered on contact. Ralph reasoned with Gilbert that it couldnt be killed.

The hostage twisted around and with the sharpened arm, jumped at Ralph and sliced off three of his fingers. He held up the bloody stubs and shrieked with agony. Frug picked up the shotgun and blew a hole right through the hostages stomach. Ralph, covered in entrails and such, backed into a corner to wrap his left hand. The hostage seemed to have a possessed soul. In an extreme strain it tore his chains from the wall and in the process of tearing himself in half. He crawled away into the depths of the ship screaming such and such.

CHAPTER 4

They decided to start work on the craft. Ralph kicked the craft's door out into the abyss. They noticed that the ship is covered in vines. Ralph walked out in spite of a creature about 50 yards away. It seemed to be eating ployps and algae from the ground. As they stepped toward the creature it ran off. Frug almost fell off of a cliff! He regained his balance, and shouted "There's our destination, we have arrived on Planif the planet of the Gastroknemians!" Frug turned around and Ralph bumped him off of the cliff. Frug tried to grab onto the edge of the cliff but fell short an inch or two, landing in a large nest. He got to his feet and saw a dozen or so dinosaur like babies in the nest. They immediately surrounded Frug, mouths wide open, looking hungry. One of the babies feebly took flight and bit Frug on the shoulder. Frug hopped from branch to branch shooting the babies as they hopped after him. He pulled the trigger once more but only a dull click followed. There were two babies left, Frug kicked one's head off and lost his footing. The other hobbled off of the edge which probably brought on it's demise. Then a large shadow casted over Frug who was in a daze.

 A large version of the small creatures dropped down in front of Frug. The creature with precision drove it's beak into Frug's hand. Frug knew it was a mother because of the teets. It looks like a Pterydactyl. Frug with all his force removed the the beak which was imbedded in his hand. Frug backhanded the creature in the skull. The bird flew back flailing it's wings and landed on the edge of the nest. Then it took flight once more and circled Frug in mid-air looking as if to dive-bomb him. Gilbert hopped to an upper ledge behind the bird. Gilbert jumped down from the ledged, unsheathed his blade and sliced into the bird's wing. It jumped back flapping furiously to the ground. Gilbert helped Frug back onto the ledge and they walked back to the ship.  

They grabbed all their weaponry and headed down to the city below. As they entered the city they were greated by two tall soldiers dressed in robes, with rifles slung around ther sholders and handcuffs at their sides. "Who goes there?" stated one of the men, his face concealed by his hood. "A guest to here, commander Grey of the X-2 voyager" responded Frug. They stepped aside and let Frug pass, Gilbert and Ralph were stripped of all their weapons. As they enter the city, arranged like a checkerboard, a line of houses along each row. At the end of the ally, about a mile down they a large palace of vibrant color. They called upon a taxi. Which ran through the whole city to take them to the palace. As they arrived the driver asked them for $75. Frug, sitting in the front seat, slammed on the gas and spun the wheel. The car skidded into an ally the driver unconscious! They snuck around the corner and hid the car. Frug walked up to annother pair of soldiers in front of the palace gates. "Who goes there?" asks the palace guard, shrouded in the same hood as the city guard. "Commander Grey of theX-2 voyager." says Frug thinking he's repeating himself. Frug hands the soilder in the robe to the left a badge that reads Grey. The soilder reads the tag quickly and hands it back to frug. "You may enter" replies the soilder. One soilder pushes the door open and the other soilder escorts Frug and his posse to the great doors of the palace. One soilder takes out a comminucation device and says somthing to a higher authority somthing we cannot hear.
