《A Nobody Special》Chapter 8:

Wow my story telling is shit.
So here's another unplanned chapter. It's not like anyone reads this but I like to pretend people do... ^.^
*****************************
Inside spaceship
So the higher ups want this rock of a world for some reason beyond my pay grade so I have to get rid of the anomaly.... Hmmm.... I guess I could just destroy it.... but it's so interesting. >.
I'll try to capture it but if it causes probs I can just destroy it. Hopefully it doesn't come to that.
Computer deploy capture drone unit.
?deploying capture drone unit....
When the unit gets back with the subject... Have the subject placed in an isolation chamber.
******************************
Planet side
Wow this world is kinda dim?! I thought it be brighter? And why are there so any little bits floating about ?
(Oddly shaped thingy floats down from up high... Little black things come out...)
Oh?! What's this? Have discovered new life?.... Nah probably not likely... Oh one of them is coming closer ^.^
It's so close it seems as if it will let me touch it? It's little extension elongates and just when I am about to touch it a flash of bright light.
It makes a beep boop sound and then the others start come towards me slowly... I move a bit and then they stop, they back up a bit? Is this some kind of game or is it a ritual? Maybe some kinda cultural thing?
The little thingy gets closer a bit slower this time... The elongated bit gets close again then a huge flash occurs. Wow maybe I can try? But they seem to dislike it if I move so I can't move I guess? I just remain still. They surround me and try to pull me? It seems I'm to heavy >.

All but one returns and the oddly shaped thing rises up and disappears.
***********************
What do you mean it's to heavy?! It's almost the same size as you... What the heck is it made of? Damit!!!
At least it seems to stop functioning after applying high voltage but keep applying it... Until I have some big movers down there... Wait those can't be retrieved... Shit!!!
I can't believe that this thing is so damn heavy that it wouldn't budge...
Computer check for gravitational anomalies...
Holy shit..... The whole freaking planet is destabilized.... Computer .... Oh my god the biggest anomaly is right below us ....
(Realization)
That thing down there is causing the destabilization of the entire freaking planet... Why aren't we being dragged in? What is this strange phenomenon? Argh... I don't have time for this!!! I gotta get this planet stabilized and in order to do that I gotta get rid of that thing....
Computer scan the objects composition and then prepare tractor beam....
Half an hour later.....
Computer how much longer is the scan gonna take? Hell you should be done by now!!!!
The scans almost done, right? .... It's not?! Then continue to scan and wake me up when ur done...
(2 hours later)
Beeping sounds...
I.... 'm ... Almos...t up... Caffeine paste.... Please, Janet?
Thank you Janet... I'm sorry about earlier I'm just a bit stressed out with the unsettling discovery.... So what did the scan... Right. First I gotta eat then I gotta hydrate. Then a calming agent before I look at the scans...Janet you always know me better than myself. ^.^
(Sometime later)
Ok Janet it's time to get back to work.
Please bring up the scan of the object... Huh? Why are you showing me the solar scanner?
The objects mass is so great that the scanner used to decipher stars and there composition is being used?

I know ... I know I'll continue reading...
It has a lot of ores in it... No diamond? 95% percent is solid material? Then show what the 5% is....?! Error?
Janet please display the subjects energy signatures... Good... Now what's this 5%? nothing is showing up? That is weird?
Janet please send a report that states our progress...
(5minutes later)
What do you mean? I need to return to stasis and let the next pilot out? They don't believe me? Despite what the data shows! Sigh... I'm going...once my stasis process is complete please Rez the next pilot and debrief him or her on the situation and their designated task.
***************************
Good night Janet. I'll see you in 15 cycles...
Good night first officer Manroe.....
Stasis sequence complete....

Stasis awakening procedure complete....
God morning Srgt. Major Wilhalm.
Loud Yawning sound*
*******************************
(30 minutes later)
Computer provide mission details....
Remove abnormality on dead planet and then proceed to stage 3 of the plan... Got it.
What is the abnormality?
Gravitational fluctuations from alien device?
What is the objects current status?
Stationary... Provided it receives almost continuous electric charge...
Computer begin priming the tractor beam while the drone unit is being retrieved...
********************************
Sometime later
Alright subject is remaining stationary... Begin tractor beam and slowly pull away from the planet once package is secured.
Tractor beam locked... Ship is now pulling out...
Alright the subject has been removed please begin tractor beam launching system and fire it on the trajectory provided by HQ.
Launching in 3, 2, 1, launch....
The planets ecosystem is now stabilizing gravitationally...
(Planets estimated time of sustainable life levels 65days...)
Add in the terra bots to the calculations and organic mass provided by HQ...
(Planets life support resurrection time 30 days)
Anyway to shorten that further computer?

Thousands of years ago, one of Sherath's distant ancestors refused to take on a quest. The task has to be done - it's vitally important - but nobody knows exactly what it is. Their race is dying out, and time is running out; and until Sherath comes into his full powers, he can't do it anyway. They have been waiting three hundred years for the saviour spoken of in an ancient prophecy to lead them on a long journey to adulthood and open the doors for them. But their saviour, and the key to success, turns out to be a volatile teenager from modern-day Earth. Sherath has hundreds of years of education in how to use the Power he will have as an adult, with little access to it as yet. Farinka, on the other hand, has access to vast amounts of Power, but no training in how to use it, what can and can't be done, and what is dangerous to try!
