B.A.T
Eternal Soldier.
On the orbital space station Hermes things where just as normal for the workers.
Work, work and more work.
7 space-suited figures were working whit their usual stuff (what do spacemen work whit anyway?)
"I give up!" One of the spacesuited figures suddenly bursted out over the radio.
"Who the hell came up whit this idea of volunteering for space-duty?!"
his co-workers looked at each other and you could almost see that they were smiling.
"actually, this was your idea Jones my man"
"NOT" Jones snapped. "I would never have...
"Well who's the boss around here then?" his companion asked sweetly
"I am, and if you think that I would do something like this..."
"YOU BLOODY WELL WOULD" the other six workers shouted, then they started laughing.
"Why you... Get back to work!" Jones snapped when he realized that he had lost the argument.
Then one of the workers stopped laughing, he seemed to have spotted something.
Jones noticed this and since he was eager to change the subject he asked:
"Takashi, what's wrong?"
"look chief, 3 o'clock. There is something there."
Everyone stopped laughing and turned to look.
"What the Hell is that? Bridge!, this is work-team 5 chief Jones speaking.
We have something out here, you got anything on sensors?"
"Are you kidding Jones?" came the angry answer.
nothing could get in visible range without us knowing it!"
"Then you better give us a vacation or check this out yourselves,
because it's there and I think it is coming this way"
"Alright Jones Ill look... Like I told ya, there is nothing on the sensors"
"Then come out here yourself and look at it, man because it looks big"
Jones was now sounding worried.
The Station-commander turned to one of his men,
"Can I get a window-view of what they think they are seeing?"
"Yes sir, right this way"
The 2 men stopped by a big window in what served as the stations dining room.
"Here sir"
The commander took up his portable radio:
"Jones, where is it?"
Before Jones could answer he saw it.
"Oh my GOD!!!"
"It is coming right for us" Jones said whit a strange calm.
"What can we do?" one of his rookie workers asked.
"Pray really hard" Jones said.
As the object came closer various cameras and other instruments
could get a visual lock on the object.
"What the hell is it?" The commander asked the computer screen.
His second in command answered:
"It looks like an old satellite sir, but it is to big to be one.
And it seems to be to streamlined for it to be a satellite, I have never seen anything like it."
"The only thing I am worried about is: Will it hit us?" the commander said.
He turned to one of the computer programmers .
"Well?" he said this time a little harder.
The programmers hands started flying around on the keyboard,
and after a few seconds he looked relived and said: "No sir, it will pass us"
Everyone on the station seemed to draw a sigh of relief a the same time.
"Good" was all the commander said, but suddenly one of the men almost shouted:
"Wait a minute, if it will pass us, wont it hit the earth?"
"where!?" shouted the commander.
The programmer jerked upright once more and started typing. When his result came up on the screen,
he looked pale.
"I think it's going to hit Megatokyo sir"
"Where in Megatokyo!?"
"This is a new system for me sir, I don't know"
The commander looked like he was going to punch the programmer,
but instead he snapped at another man:" Get me a line to Earth, we got to warn them!"
"Yessir, but don't you think they have already seen it?"
"DID WE SEE IT?, NOW GET ME THAT DAMNED LINE!"
All the workers of team 5 could do was watch as the "satellite"
flew passed their station at a safe distance.
"Megatokyo eh?" Jones said,
(the commander had forgotten to cut the transmission to his suit so he had heard everything)
"All who hopes that it hits the Genom building says: I "
"I!" the group said as one.
The object was now starting to glow red as it entered earth's atmosphere,
keeping its course on Japan and Megatokyo.
