The Craft
They’re running out of time; the day is quickly coming to an end. The red suits have been searching for hours, and still haven’t come up with anything. The only thing that they think they know is that the craft has been stranded here for more than a week.
They’ve brought out every fancy tool that they have, for nothing. They can’t detect a noise to see if there are any survivors, they can’t tell if the craft is still operable, heck they couldn’t even get inside of it. I guess they got desperate and impatient, because they decided to blow a hole in it to get inside.
Now they can see inside, but what’s next? It’s kind of like if a bear had stumbled upon a car in the woods. The bear has never seen a car before, and doesn’t know it’s use. Through brute strength the bear may be able to to break into the front seat, but then it’s just another puzzle of more items the bear doesn’t understand. It’s not like the bear has a key tucked behind his ear for such a time as this. No, the bear is merely destroying what he does not understand, because he does not understand.
That is the situation I look down on now, but worse. Because instead of one curious bear, it is 20 or so curious and territorial explorers destroying my craft. Unlike the bear breaking into the front seat, what these savages have done is more like ripping the door off the trunk. I’ll let them keep going until they get tired though, maybe then they’ll go home. Then I can return to MY craft, and repair MY craft, then leave in MY craft that they should have never even bothered in the first place. That’s the way it should go at least.
If not, it only gets worse. For all of us, not just me though, I think that’s only fair. See, I’m not one to not be prepared. While some lock the car door and hope a bear doesn’t come around. I set a bear trap, so the bear knows not to come back again.
