April 15th, 2010 at Midnite

Nobody knew what to expect on this day, but
it was coming nevertheless. The first thing
to wake me was the annoucement on the loud
speaker. It went like this:

"Attention Ladies and Gentleman:
We are now approaching the rings of Saturn.
Please proceed to floor Three for the best
view. Thank You"

Knowing there wasn't much room on that
floor, many of us went to 11 thru 15. You
can see very well from the back of the ship.
Way off in the distance I could see Jupiter.
It made me smile thinking my mom was
probably seeing it too, but what I didn't
know was she was on floor three and hadn't
seen it. Infact, her and my dad had their
arms around each other as they gazed out
into space.

There wasn't many people on floor three, we
later found out, but what ones were there
we hardly knew. That is, except my mom and
dad and also Melissa's brother and his wife.

With no notice at all, the ship began to
shake. It shook like bad turbulence. Infact,
many of us lost our balance and fell to the
ground. The lights also went off and so did
the power.

"Ladies and Gentleman:
Please remain calm! Do not move from
your spot! All will be taken care of
shortly. I assure you. Again, please
remain calm."

Before any more could be said, the ship
begain to increase speed by a great
amount. Fear began to enter our hearts,
but before we knew it, we were thrust
into an odd stillness. The thrust did
manage to pull our necks a little out
of joint, but one by one we began to
stand once more. Slowly, we turned
toward the rear and was suprised by
what we saw.

With eyes and mouth wide,
