James’s voice made me jump out of my skin, “Look ” he was shouting “what is that we are heading for?”. I dragged my eyes away from our home which was slipping away into the distance.
We all turned to look into the direction James was pointing to see what could only be described as a smaller version of what we had left.. The guide lines were drawing us closer and closer all the time. All four of us were beginning to feel scared and light headed , less than an hour ago we were safe in our own world. Green fields and blue skies , spring flowers and gentle bubbling streams. Where were we now.
The stars looked so amazing, the sky so black and all this change within an hour. All of us were really slowly loosing the grip on reality. We were all moving silently through the stillness and vastness of space towards what we would soon find out was a ship. Smaller, much smaller than the one we had not long left, but a ship like “planet earth. ”
I watched until our home completely disappeared, I felt a pain so deep inside that I did not know were it began or ended. We all coasted down towards the spaceship that was waiting for us. The guide line brought us all to the airlock at the entrance of the ship. In the middle of the airlock there was a button , written in red across the button was the word ” press. ”
