The transport pod
Chatterbox: Pudding's Place
The transport pod
The transport pod orbited around Earth, beaming Capsules down to the houses of CBers. Despite the suspicious appearance of the large silver Capsules popping into exsistence right in front of the CBers, Galaxy knew that they would still flock to MilkyWay Station. Flock there to die. Galaxy grinned. And slapped her hand down on the huge red button.
It did nothing.
She just enjoyed pressing it.

You plop down on the couch with a large bar of chocolate and begin snacking on it. Ow, Something's poking you in the back! You reach behind the couch cushion and pull out the TV remote. "Aha! That's where it was!" you say, and reward yourself on your obviously superior finding abilities with a large bite of chocolate. You turn on the TV to your favorite station. But... It's just static! "What? Nooooo!!!" you cry in anguish and flip through the rest of the channels. They're all static. Despondently, you allow yourself to collapse dramatically across the couch and snag a bite of chocolate. Unfortunately, your acting genius is inturrupted by a large, very hard object. Conveniently placed where your head lands. You sit up indignantly and rub your head. As you turn to see the offending object that put an abrupt ending to your acting career in dramatic fainting, the chocolate falls out of your mouth as you gape in astonishment. Sitting innocently on the couch is a sleek metal tube that tapers to a point at each end. As you watch, a slot opens up in the seemingly seamless silver steel (ahaha alliteration!) and a voice as sleek as the Capsule it issues from filters out.

Galaxy loved pressing buttons. She tried to do it as much as possible. Presently, she reached up to the ceiling of the transport pod and pressed a small yellow button. Her voice boomed out from the speakers of 14 well-placed Capsules: "Greetings and salutations lucky CBers!" There was an almost undetectable hint of sarcasm on the word 'lucky', but it was so slight that only a very experienced sarcasmist would notice. Galaxy continued with her speech: "You have been chosen for a very exclusive vacation. So exclusive, in fact, that you are the only ones besides myself and our various staff members who will ever experience it! This vacation (insert dramatic pause) is in (insert long dramatic pause) SPACE!" Galaxy imagined the screeches of excitement coming from the CBers. Screeching was a very humanlike trait, and Galaxy did not enjoy it. She rolled her eyes and then continued on: "You have 7 minutes to pack and round up your companion, then return to the Capsule and insert a chocolate bar in the slot. You will be transported to the MilkyWay Space Station where I will meet you. Don't be late. I will be timing you. Now GO!" Galaxy pressed an hourglass shaped purple button, which started the seven minute timer. Then she slammed down hard on the ignition button and the transport pod rocketed out into deep space.

This is very intriguing! I love your writing style. I died at Mandy pouting about her nails being ruined. Accurate.
(June 29, 2018 - 11:20 am)
@Abigail Yes! XD I liked writing it too.
@Agent Winter Yay! Finally I find someone who loves cliffhangers!!
@Hotairballoon Yes thank you. I think I may write a book called Mourning: For Dummies. I can send you a free copy if you'd like!
@Everyone: I believe Part 2 will be posted tomorrow. I got over my writers block (YAY!!) but Blacky still needs to finish something up. And thanks everyone for liking my writing! :P

Well I could never aspire to be as great as the Great Kate Weather Machine, but obviously I come close to it.
CAPTCHA says "dmmd". She wants to play DnD!
(July 1, 2018 - 5:19 pm)
How come you're all conveniently avoiding direct questions?
(July 2, 2018 - 9:47 am)
What? Moi? Avoiding answers? Never! I would totally definitely never ever avoid answering your questions!
(we will reveal who we are at the end. Some of you have come pretty close!)
CAPTCHA says "pccd". Oooh a CD? In a PC? Thats what you want for Christmas? Geez, CAPTCHAs these days. *shakes head*
Also, Hello Blacky! Glad you could join us!

Darling, has it really been so long. . . ? *yawns* Well, I suppose I ought to introduce myself to the rest of you all. . . but I don't really have time for that. *looks around* Are there less of you or something?
(June 30, 2018 - 3:24 pm)
Vampire mice. Disgusting. Such a high tech setting, and no mouse poison. Unless you want the mice there...
*Floats out of mouse hole*
*hears someone yelling about the zero-gravity tube*
Amusing. I'm already in zero-gravity. Oh, well. Might as well make the most of being dead.
*Practices writing creepy messages on mirrors*

RIP, Trevor, rest in pieces.
Is it weird to say that I loved writing his death? XD It was so heartbreaking and dramatic.

Trevor... Oh crud, I better not be the murderer...
I know this is irrelevant, but I am much better at sports in this than in real life.
@Galaxy are you Quill, Inktail, or Silverwaxing?
(July 2, 2018 - 7:06 pm)
