After Zain said that, we started thinking of places. Mostly me, since I live here.. "Wait! My dad has a ship he's been working on, it's in the basement. Not a lot of people know about the ship itself, since it has a cloaking device. It would only be temporary, but you could at least hide while my dome is being searched." My dad is an engineer, and he's been trying to make ships that run on less fuel. If we could hide an alien anywhere, its on a cloaked ship. We all sort of looked at eachother for a second. "I guess it could work.." Zain said softly. We got up, and I led the two of them to the basement.

"This is a really big basement.. We don't even HAVE a basement at my dome!" Fay said, looking around. "Yeah.. My dad made sure to have an extra large basement, since he usually builds this way too big." I explained. I nearly walked right into the ship before Fay his a button and made it visible. "Wow.." Zain breathed, looking at the large machine. "Double wow.." Fay added. I opened the door to the ship, and we all walked in. "So, this is my dad's giant ship. He says it runs on the plasma found in common stars, and one star can power it for a year. But that's mostly theoretical, apparently." I told them, sitting on the pilot sear. Zain looked around, and Fay looked at Zain. Does Fay..? I decided to ignore that thought, and looked at the control panel. There were many buttons, switches, and screens. I noticed sensors on the handles, which I assume are for steering the ship. Out of curiosity, I put my hands on it, which made the entire ship light up! "Woah! What did you do!?" Fay exclaimed, turning to me. Zain jumped at Fay's sudden outburst, but then turned to me as well. "I just.. Put my hands on the handles, and it turned on.." I said, looking back at the control panel. I sat up in the chair, and instinctively hit a few buttons, which turned on a large screen. It showed the outside of the ship, I could tell because my dad's workbench was off to the side. "How are you even doing this? Have you flown a ship before?" Zain questioned, walking over. I shook my head. "I just.. Know what to do. Hang on, I wanna do something.." I somehow opened a door in the ceiling, and maneuvered the ship out. "Woah woah woah, why are we flying out?" Fay questioned, looking at the screen. I ignored his words, and flew far away from the planet, in what seemed like seconds.. I needed to go.. We needs to be out there, there's something out there that we need to be near..

Hey I hope people actually read this book, because I might do an interesting filler chapter involving Sangi culture in the near future
