space slow chapter ??

 "back to it." strain in his voice. A pair of jade and garnet curtains split in half opening up to a dark star lite space. A spark of line shined from a nearby station showing a nearby docking port. "Oh. Well, I guess we're here." Chiming above 'Correct Sir, your alarm needs repair, it malfunctioned while you were resting.' It was silent for a moment as the ship was getting closer. "I see, I'll have to check on that later.. but first it is time for work." Clearing his throat, 'Sir you are already half a cycle late for work.' "Alarm malfunctioned right? Report the malfunction and it should be alright." A pair of gloves gripping ahold of a green helmet with a Jade encrusted crystal. Adjusting the helmet to the collar of his body suit, a loud hissing sound came from the collar as it sealed to the helmet. "Hey Mr. Hippity Hop!!" Another males voice called out as the helmets visor lite up with a visual of sound waves. "Yeah? What is it Mr. Hoppity Hip?" He answered with a yawn. The door to his quarters opened as he walked towards it. Turning down the hallway to the cockpit, another was sitting with a different body suit on. He sat in the Captains seat, a small symbol engraved on the chest. "Weeeellll look whose finally awake." Turning the chair around not wearing a helmet. "Alarm malfunction huh?" "Yup." "Mhmm.. come on, get login in. I'm going on break." Grabbing the helmet from the control panel next to his chair standing up, they both bumped each others arms as they passed each other. He kept walking out of the cockpit heading down the hallway to get something to eat. "Don't kill us now." He commented with a chuckle turning down another hallway towards the canteen. Meanwhile back in the cockpit after walking pass his coworker. Raised his arm up hearing the comment. "I'll make sure yours is faster than mine!" A bit of laughter came from the hallway before a soft chuckle. Sitting in the navigators chair, "Another cycle." Groaning in his seat staring at a projection of the ships surroundings. Looking through his helmet staring at the ships heading towards the station, "Guess, I'll call in before we get any closer." Taking a deep breath connecting to the station's docking system, "This is ____(company, ID number) approaching to dock, sending bill of" There was a voice cutting him off from speaking further. "We already, have the information you've provided. The docking manifest has already been received and approved. You are clear for docking." Sitting froze in his seat steering the ship into the docking area. "Oh.. Alright. Thank you." Forgetting to switch off the transmitter to the station, as his helmet turned towards the hallway began yelling. "DAMMIT! Why didn't you tell me you already sent the information! _____ (name) one of these days. I'mma piss in your java next time, I pick up drinks!" The ships A.I. chimed in 'Contaminating a fellow family member of the company, drink with hazardous waste is against the rules and it's not good for their well-being.' Sitting silently, while steering the ship. "Did you just call my pee hazardous waste?" 'Correct. Your urine is not a liquid any would want to consume or have touch it's flesh as it'd start dissolving until removed. It would be hazardous to their health and well-being.' There was heavy laughter coming from the canteen, there was a bit of laughter that came from the other station. Which made him jump a bit before quickly turning off the transmitter, as the ship was latching onto a dock into the station's port. "."

Space Slow Chapter 1: Sea's of Mist

"Alright, start recording after this statement." A males voice came out from the middle of the bridge of a large spaceship, pacing back and forth along the bridge. The ship was a cleansing transporter ship, with a bulky body for transporting enough for 2 small shuttle ships inside of the storage dock. A low-class model shuttle ship was anchored inside the storage dock. One being was still upon the ship piloting it, maintaining the ship constantly.

 Currently in slowed stasis with minimal levels of oxygen and fluid's to keep a ship using small amounts of energy to run. The lights were powered down to a dim light in the room, "Captain's log: date-" A small musical tune sounded behind him on the console against the wall. A incoming call was accepted through his helmet as he continued to speak. "No, maybe. Captain's personal journal.. Entry number.." A cough clearing of a throat was heard from the intercom in his helmet, "No.. That doesn't sound right either.. Maybe something less professional. Commander and chief of the.. Hmm need to name my ship don't I?" Another males voices calls out from the screen inside his helmet.

 "Caa-aptaain.." Almost as a whisper. his gloved fingers holding onto the rim of the helmet. "20.. one moment" he said while lifting the helmet up over his head. "Oh ca-aaptaain?!" The voice called again in a alluring tone. "Captain's.. One moment, I'll get to you in a moment." A moment of silence adjusting the helmet upon his head securing the helmet to the suit's neck collar. "Alright.. Captain's log" He said with a cheerful tone. "Get out here. NOW! You got work to do! Mr. Caa-aa-aptain." The voice was much ruder and deeper than before. 

"Yeah... yeah I'm coming." Plugging the suit into the console, on the bridge reclining back in the captains chair as the data was being sent between the suit and the ship. "There you are.. stop playing around and get to work. We got a lot of jobs to do." The voice had materialized onto a screen inside his helmet, a broad shouldered Chipmunk with a left purple cyborg eye that was zooming in on his screen. "Yeah, well one day, I'll have my own ship and you'll have to pay me a whole lot more than you do now." The chipmunk placed his fingertips against the temples of his forehead, shook his head slowly letting out a chuckle. 

"HA HA ha! You get a ship?! When that day comes I'll call you Captain and hell I'll even pay for your energy." Gripping ahold of the captains chair and sat up some his tail slapped the ground in excitement. "You'll pay for the energy, and Of course my wage will be doubled since I'd be my own ship and you'd have to of course you can commission out to you, but I get a forty percent cut in each delivery and decam." The chipmunk laughed softly and waved his paw a bit. "Are you serious right now?" Chuckling with a wide grin on his face as he was holding back laughter. "Of course that also includes any upgrades or updates, I may need to add onto the ship in the future... If you agree to these terms than.. Deal! Save this deal in the memory files cause your a man of your word so.. You will honor this deal?"

He sat up straighter in the captains chair, staring at the chipmunk that was rubbing his chin. A smirk crossed over the chipmunks lips. "Deal.. Now get your dream moving and hop to it! Ships are expensive so best get working double time..." The chipmunk snickered some with a large grin a musical chime played as the deal was done being recorded. The file was sent to the authorities as they confirmed it and sent the file to both parties almost in an instant. "From what I remember you haven't passed your captains certification. Your only maintenance worker certified, and decam authorized thanks to me. Besides YOU becoming a captain after what number is this again I lost count after the first 2,000."

Laughter bellowed in his throat as he continued to speak. ".. 4,753.. times but I will pass!" He grumbled at the screen softly to himself. The chipmunk slammed his arm against the arm of the chair, "That's right I keep forgetting! Besides you haven't passed your navigation certification either! hah and the last crew assigned to the ship they all left within a few days.. the other crews will only work on the same station if your elsewhere on the stations you're suppose to be working on together! So, who will you be bossing around?! NOBODY! Now get to work!" Laughter came from the screen before the call was disconnected. Closing out the video call window, clenching the captains chair holding onto the sides with his fingers gripping the arms of the chair firmly. He was starting to shake. "Right, just need to get a ship can't be a captain without a ship.. After that then getting a crew should be a breeze.. sure I could do everything myself like I have been.. but at least.. it'd be MY SHIP! MINE!" He heard a metal creek as he froze and looked at the arms of the chair. His fingers indented slightly into the frame of the chair, "Whoops.. sorry ship sorry.. ship.. chair.." Quickly letting go of the armrests and gently rubbing the armrests.

"Sorry." He sighed softly leaning his head forward resting it on the console. "I can't even get a ship without that certification.. I can pilot the ship... Any ship, I'm working hard on piloting the ships from other races.. I will pass next time, next time I can do it, I will be able to pilot anything that I will encounter. My ship will always be in good hands." A loud bing came from around his helmet jolting his body a bit sitting up quickly. The helmets A.I. chimed in, Sir, you're posture is slipping. I've took the liberty in repositioning.

His fingers pulsed holding onto the sides of the chair before shaking his head, quickly moving his fingers away. "Yeah.. Thanks, now.. let's just... get to work." The screen in his helmet lit up with a small icon with notifications coming in. Systems marked, online. Please insert your D.I.C. laying back in the seat as his arm began to vibrate while inputting a code touching an invisible screen. "Yeah, yeah. I'm working on it. Hold your parts." Logging into the computers through the visor of his helmet. Identification verified, welcome aboard. What is your destination? Looking at the screen, "Where's that navigation.." Scrolling through the helmets multiple screens, "Ah, here is it. Alright, let's get you out and about. What do ya say?" His tail swayed along the ground slithering a bit here and there, before wrapping around the base of the chair. The work order was accepted and the coordinates were instantly placed into the navigation system.

Destination received, what time would you like to depart? Looking through the screen of the jobs listed taking care of the nearest one. "Now would be." Glancing at the screen for a second. Confirmed leaving now, safe travels. The ship was powered up preset to autopilot taking off from the asteroid in a quick pace. "Goo" Holding onto the seat before calming down as his body was getting used to the speed. "Ooph, I hate it when it does that.. how long till we reach destination?" Rubbing his stomach some, "Shouldn't have had that food before work.." 

A message popped up on the screen, Estimated time of arrival 10 minutes. Lifting his head up some before looking back and forth being attached to the ship through his suit. "Only 10 minutes? Well that calls for a trip to the network!" His tail excitedly began to smack into the floor under the chair. Unauthorized usage of network while on duty will count as a citation, which will bring you to 18 citations. Continuation of escalating citations will void user operation of all A through G-class vessels and be restricted to only H-class vessels.

His tail laid upon the ground in defeat. "... Ugh." Tilting his head to the side, "Fine. Never mind, networking this time. I didn't spend all this time climbing ranks to be demoted to a H-class.. continue course, cancel network connection. Begin manual navigation." His body lifting from the captains chair, floating in mid-air with the cables attached to the suit. His body stayed still as he took a deep breath. "Ready." The screens turned off in the helmet before his ship was in view floating in a large wavy black river. Understood, canceling network connection. Autopilot disengaging in 10.. 09.. 08.. 07.. 06.. 05.. 04.. 03.. 02.. 01 disengaging. Good sailing... Captain.

Two hours later

"So... four listed jobs in the whole station, right? That's not bad only four sounds, like a breeze." A chiming sound came from the intercom in his helmet. Correct, only two were listed at the beginning of departure from the main station. The most recent listings were added when we arrived while parking in the dock bay. Adjusting the helmet against the suit that covered the entire body "Ah, alright. We should do the first two. Since they were the reason. We're even here." Understood, hailing the first contact for details. Walking out of the bridge of the ship, down a long hallway before turning into a storage room, gathering some equipment for the coming work orders. Placing on his side a extra attachment for his suit. "Always good to be prepared." Walking back out of the storage room, down another hallway making his way to the exit.

Deathicorn

A star lite sky blooms out with stars shinning glissading in the sky. Soft transparent clouds slowly strolling by dimming the light slighting for a moment before reappearing again as the clouds past by. A cool breeze swept along the ground, the first sign of winter's nearing. A old pair of old skeletal hooves shuttered slightly at the breeze as it swept by. "AACHOOO! followed by a cough with a harsh voice coming from a old unicorn skull. "Ugh.. I can feel it coming in my bones." A skeletal unicorn, ash colored long mane and tail still holding onto it it's skeletal body. Standing under a old willow tree, giving shade from the rays of light as the sun was raising in the distance. "Thank you, Miss.. Perhaps, another time.." He spoke to the tree before slowly making his way out from under the willow tree and into the meadow that surrounded the willow tree. The tail and mane blew slightly in the wind making a more ghostly unicorn with a green lit aura surrounded him, as the moons light touched his body. Where perhaps a cutie mark would be has been long since gone. Making his way alone in the forest not sticking to the cleared paths. The Willow tree blew a kiss with its leaves at the Unicorn, as the wind blew the leaves up in his direction.

The skeletal body like a mist blew along the forest floor. In a slow trot his body was speeding through the forest. Mist came up from the ground as he touched it with his hooves. His mane and tail swaying swaying contently behind him, barely jumping over another as mist blew from one side to the other in a instant. "Pardon me.." He said, but all the other did was shutter at the cold chill running through their body. He couldn't slow down to apologies properly, making his way through the forest it was a lovely day for him. Only to stop at a large ray of light shining from above. Staring at it curiously, before slowly walking through the light as he held his breath his legs shook. "Nothing, will stop today.." Shuttering before jumping to the other side of the ray of light gasping as his body was smoking with a very faint color of a mane and tail. Looking down at his body for a moment confused, but continued his way through the forest. His body was back to normal with it's skeletal appearance, slowing a bit down from his confused mind.

Looking at the ray of light for a moment while speeding through the forest with a more hastened pace. His hooves floating up into the treeline's and above lakes and streams.

Monsters and Maidens //Chapter Five:

Lifting his arm up to touch his chest making sure not to wake anyone. His fist clenched his chest as he could feel the pain rushing and pounding in his chest. Clenching his teeth, taking slow deep breaths glancing over as Lilian was still asleep. Listening to the house as it sounded quiet another alarm called out, quickly hitting snooze. Taking one more deep breath as he shifted in bed to his side, as Rain's body was soon pressed up against his back holding onto him. Her hair over one of her eyes as she was waking up. "Are you okay?" A soft voice came from behind him. "I'll be fine." he replied quietly as he laid on his side, slowly getting out of bed as the alarm was soon sounding out once more. "You sure, you're okay?" She asked as he hit snooze again, getting up to his feet and stood in the middle of the bedroom. Putting on his clothes, "I'll be fine."  He said getting ready for work while stumbling around. Every so often his speech was mumbled and slower than normal. "I can't miss any more work." 'I can't miss work.. We need the money.'

Walking out of the bedroom heading towards the bathroom. The rest of the girls were waking up and conversing with each other in the living room. A few of the girls had noticed him, "Good morning, have a good day at work." He smiled weakly waving at them, before entering into the bathroom as one of the girls followed in behind him. "Hm?" He glanced behind him seeing Sarah holding a erasable board. "Did you need something Sarah?" He asked, Sarah shook her head and scooted past him to the toilet. "Ah, okay I'll only be in here for a minute." He said at the sink making himself ready for work. A erasable board was placed on the counter with writing on it. Glancing down at the board, 'Are you okay?' was written close together. "Yes, I'll be fine." He smiled weakly before feeling more pain in his chest.

'You sure?' He nodded after reading what she wrote, "Yes, I'll be fine. I just need to take my medicine. I'll be fine." Walking out of the bathroom heading to the kitchen as his work bag was laying on the counter. Reaching inside taking out a small container holding it in his paw for a moment, 'Take one lay down and relax.. five to ten minutes. not better go to hospital. I hate the hospital, come on.. We got to do this.' Opening up the container and looked inside some of the pills had been crushed as others were missing small pieces from them. 'Well that's not good.. Oh well.' reaching inside taking out a tiny pill that was almost fully intact. Placing it under his tongue before closing the container and placed it back into his bag as the pill fizzled under his tongue.

Walking back to the living room as he sat down in his chair and reclined back grabbing his phone from his pocket and calling his work. 'I hate calling in.. Why now? We need the money dammit.. but if we do go to the hospital. Maybe work will forgive us and not put this down as a call in. stupid of course they will its a business a company. There is no heart in a company they only want to make money.' sighing softly before breathing slowly. "I'm calling work.. So please, keep it down." There was silence after he spoke, glancing around at the girls covering their mouths as he rolled his eyes. "Smart asses." His call was answered, "HR, What can I do for you?"

A females voice came from the other side of the phone, which some of the girls scooted closer to listen in. 'Hey, this is employee number 21B. I might need to call in today, I'm currently having a heart attack. I just took my medicine so I'll have to wait till it works to know if I need to go to the hospital or not.' Was what he wanted to say, but what came out was. "Employee 21B.. calling in today.. I'm having heart attack." His words were long winded, having a hard time making the words come out right. There was silence in the living room and on the phone. "Hello? This is.. Employee" He was interrupted by the female voice on the other side. "What?.. WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME?! Call an ambulance!" Pulling the phone from his ear for a moment from the yelling, "I'm suppose to call anyway.." 

"That's-that's... True, thank you for calling. Do you need me to call an ambulance? Is there anyone you want me to call?" Her voice was caught off guard and a bit nervous. "No, I took my medicine. If it doesn't work. I'll go to the hospital." His speech wasn't improving as he was taking his time to remember how to pronounce the words correctly. 'Am I having a stroke too? dammit! speak! we know how!' Thinking to himself listening to HR. "...Alright, take it easy, when you get off the phone focus on breathing.. You took your medicine, okay. Rest, relaxing and call me back before office hours close. so I know if you're coming in or not." Leaning back and resting his head on the cushion of the chair. "Will do.. Focusing wall painting" Taking his phone from his ear and looked at the time office hours was going to be ending in a hour. 'If I leave soon I can still make it into work and not get a strike against me.' "Okay, hanging up bye." He added reaching up and rubbing his chest slowly to try an focus on breathing "Bye. I hope you feel better." Ending the call and placed his phone on the arm of the chair.

The girls in the living room were all staring and surrounding his chair. Staring at them all, "What?" Parts of his body began to tingle, feeling numb. "I took my medicine, I'll be fine, girls.." He stared at them some had tears in their eyes and had to leave the room. He turned his focus on a painting on the wall as the girls stayed nearby every so often glancing at him, his phone to check the time. 'That should be enough time..' It had been twenty minutes, moving his fingers around closing his paw into a fist then back stretched out, slightly wiggling his toes to get his blood pumping. The numbness had died down and the chest pains were almost gone. 'If we leave now we can still make it in besides the chest pain is about gone.' Lifting his phone up and calling his work once more. It was answered quickly, "HR, What can I for you?" 

"Hey this is employee number 21B, I'll be able to make it into work today." "Oh hey.. You sure? You don't need to go to the hospital?" "I'm sure" "Alright well see you at work then. take your time." "Will do."

Moving his arm around a bit before sitting up, taking a deep breath. Standing up for a moment moving his arms to his side. "I'll be fine, just one more day. It'll be a day off."
