about

Running from the security guards pursuing me, I entered the entry codes for my ship and wormed my way into the cockpit. There wasn't a lot of fuel, but there was enough for the short trip to Neptune's asteroid. I was so close. I could feel it.

The countdown timer began as the guards entered the hangar. They were too late to stop me now. I'd already hacked the airlock controls. I was getting out.

Once I had clearance, Star Defense's defense systems activated, intending to destroy me. I began taking heavy fire. I hadn't considered that they'd try to take me out, but I guess I should have.

I was already closing in on Neptune's asteroid, but I knew my ship wouldn't survive. I had been so stupid. I had miscalculated. I was emotional. Desperate.

I crawled out of the cockpit and into the emergency storage locker, where my emergency space suit was waiting just where I'd left it.

Stepping into the airlock, I took a deep breath. The door opened and I was blown immediately into the vacuum of space moments before my ship exploded, singing my air supply and throwing me hurling through the empty dark.

But I could see it now. I could see the house. I could see his windows. I could almost touch it. I reached out toward it, and fell asleep as my oxygen supply depleted.
