THE ADVENTURES OF CAPTAIN EARTH


          VROOM, the U.S.S. Bup flew through space at warp speed.

          Captain’s log: stardate 1453.94 We are on route for the Rockmy Cluster.

          “How long ‘til we get to the Rockmy Cluster, Mr. Bongor,” asked Earth, the captain of the ship.

          “1 hour 3 minutes 5 seconds,” answered Bongor Earth’s first officer and only Anbup, which is a half robot, half-alien ... thing.

          “At warp ten, how long would it take?” asked Captain Earth.

          “3, minutes sir,” said Bongor.

          “Ensign Ron, increase to warp ten,” said Earth.

          “Yes sir,” said Ron. “Increasing to warp ten”.

          “Entering Rockmy Cluster, sir,” said Bongor.

          “Ron, get us to the Bijoran Asteroid,” said Earth.

          “Yes sir,” said Ron. “On route to the Bijoran Asteroid”.

          “Bongor, you have the bridge,” said Earth. “Ron, come with me”.

          “Bongor to Zack: get ready to bupport the captain and Ron to the Bijoran Asteroid,” said Bongor into his communicator.

          “Yes sir,” said Zack. “Bupporting NOW!!!”

          When Earth and Ron were bupported it was the first time in Earth’s life that he was bupported. It looked like he was floating in foggy water.

          “Bongor to Earth: do you copy?” said Bongor into his comm (comm is short for communicator).

          “Why won’t they talk to us?” said Earth after trying ten times to communicate with the U.S.S. Bup.

          “I know why,” said a familiar voice.

          Earth turned and saw Bongor.

          “How’d you get here?” asked Ron.

          “I came in the D.C. shuttle, because you can’t bupport back through the atmosphere,” said Bongor. “Also you can’t communicate through either”.

          All of a sudden, they heard a rustle in the bushes.

          Then a 5 ft. bronze back gold bellied Lasha jumped out of the bushes.

          “RUN!” shouted Earth.

          “NO, DON’T RUN,” yelled Bongor. “IF WE TAME IT, IT CAN HELP US TO SOMETIMES PULL STUFF THAT’S TOO HEAVY FOR US TO CARRY OR PULL!”

          “You’re right, but the only problem is: how do we catch the lasha?” asked Ron.

          “Hide,” answered Bongor. “If we hide, the lasha will walk past us. Then we can catch it from behind”.

          “Ok, let’s do it,” said Earth.

          Everyone hid behind trees, rocks and bushes, and Bongor was right the lasha walked past them, but it turned onto a path and got away.

          “Where does that path lead to?” asked Earth.

          “The D.C. shuttle,” answered Bongor.

          They headed for the D.C. shuttle

          “Get in everyone,” whispered Earth. “That lasha may still be around”.

          “I will get us back to the U.S.S. Bup,” said Ron.

          When they took off a bijoran ship was right in front of them.

          “Captain, they are hailing us,” said Ron.

          “On screen,” said Earth.

          “Bogo layo falacion ba,” said a voice.

          “Do you know what they’re saying?” said Earth.

          “No sir,” said Bongor.

          “Then lets try to slip past them, but first can you find the U.S.S. Bup on the long range scanners?” asked Earth.

          “Yes, sir,” said Ron. “Should I increase to warp eight?”

          “Yes, please,” said Earth. “Engage”.

          “Welcome back, sir,” said Dongor Earth’s second officer, as they walked onto the bridge.

          “Thank you Dongor,” said Earth.

         “Ron, lay in coordinates for Starbase 360 to meet with the U.S.S. Enterprise,” said Earth. “Engage”.
