Continued from October edition ....

As they were drifting away in space, the friends took off their

seatbelts and immediately started floating around. Since there is no
gravity in space, the friends enjoyed floating. Suddenly they heard
metal creaking; scratching sounds on the walls and observed the

lights flickering. Boom…. all the lights went out. It was dark and
scary. It felt as if there was a creature coming towards them; they

felt the chills in the spine. Later the friends realized it was just
the janitor’s mop and a bucket sliding towards them.

Now suddenly the friends were confused as the ship was steered.

They realized that every member of the club was here and none of
them were in the cockpit. But the friends were too scared to go

there because they felt that the spaceship was haunted and that
there were ghosts roaming free around. Garrett took the responsi-
bility to go and get the ship on track since he is a physicist. But

the friends didn’t let him because they thought that the ghosts
would chase him, so, they all decided to go together. After reach-

ing the cockpit safe and sound, Jimmy saw that the lights were
switched off But, when he tried to turn it back on it was really
hard to operate the switch. After trying really hard he eventually

asked the help of the other friends. Who switched off the lights…?
The friends realized that they were not alone on this ship and they

locked themselves in the cockpit so that whoever was on the ship
could not get in. Benjamin said “Guys… Guys look here is that...
what I think it is….”

Silence among the friends. And “WE’RE HEADING
STRAIGHT TO A BLACK HOLE!”… Said Garrett.
