   Summary

   Nothing would go as planned. It would not be a slow, calm end.

   The space ship arrived at the suspect star system earlier than they expected. And what awaits them there will be a sickness.

   To save their planet, the engineer has to live through it first, alongside their twenty-two crewmates.

   A Blip-A horror story.
