Summary
“You nervous?” Dave turned to the sound of his brother’s voice, momentarily distracted from the half-folded paper in his hands.
“Nah, not really?” he replied with a shrug, partially surprised at the question. “This job seems pretty standard. Transporting a retired ship to its home planet for scrapping. Easy peasy.”
Born as a set of quadruplets, Dave and his siblings grew up attached to each others’ sides like a human monkey chain. Having each others’ backs proved more difficult once they became young adults, however. Their separate interests began pulling them in different directions, but thankfully Dave and his siblings did share the desire to leave Mars together. They had all decided to go the “interstellar traveler” route, and agreed to take multiple tracks at the Interstellar Travel Academy to become their own self-sustaining crew and eventually buy their own ship.
One morning Dave woke up to an Earth-based company looking for an individual with both engineering and pilot experience, which he was. With only one other crewmate aboard the payout would be insanely good, so Dave took it without hesitation. And now the day had finally come.
