Alien Escapade º Episode 0546 - The Cruise: Auntie, Captain, Dux, Jarry, Kirin, Tetra, Vanna, Zola, ~ 08 {Space Dock Tower ~ 2} ``Captain: Zibo all. We have a very tricky situation as in lifting off, as we are over the legal limits. Therefore we will be scrutinizing our lift off procedure. We may have to leave one of you behind, if we start getting into trouble. We have never tried this before, and I certainly would not want to make a habit of doing this. We have sufficient fuel to get to Cepheus, but I have decided not to add anymore fuel, owing to more weight. Therefore, I ask you all to remain quiet and still, and I hand you over to Jarry, for lift-off. Zimo. ``Jarry: Zibo all. In case of an emergency, the kindergarten or the youngest go first, followed by the Cats, and then Bears. You will fall out in a methodical manner without panicking or rushing. You will wait for my command after I have lowered the drawbridge. Any questions. Qaa? Good. Drawbridge up. Three greens. {S182 Citadel in transit to Cepheus ~ 4} ``Captain: Kirin, we will both do this together, and Dux can observe procedure. Jarry read out the manual aloud for a heavy take off procedure. ``Jarry: Up thrusters on max; slip clutches to maintain high 7,000 RPM. ``Kirin: Confirmed. ``Jarry: Engaged full power. ``Dux: here we go. ``Kirin: She is hardly moving. ``Jarry: The book says torque will take time to build up, so allow up to one unit. ``Kirin: It is a long unit. ``Captain: She is lifting. ``Dux: Quite a lot of dust being churned up. ``Jarry: 10 metres and climbing. 50 metres and climbing. ``Captain: She is very heavy on the controls, and they are not responding in the usual way. ``Kirin: Dux we may need your hands as well. ``Jarry: 100 metres. ``Dux: Should we not be moving sideways? ``Jarry: Nothing in the book, Dux. ``Captain: I will think on it. ``Jarry: 200 metres and climbing. ``Kirin: It is slow. ``Captain: I can hear the engines rumbling. ``Jarry: 300 metres and climbing. ``Dux: Position the Up thrusters for 45º angle. ``Kirin: Zaa, Dux. ``Jarry: 400 metres. ``Captain: We will just rely on the thrusters to move us forward. ``Jarry: 800 metres, minimum requirement specification. ``Dux: I suggest you keep her going up for a while. ``Captain: Agreed. ``Jarry: 1.200 metres, so we have cleared 1 Km in altitude. ``Captain: Switching off Up thrusters. ``Kirin: She is speeding up a bit now. ``Jarry: 2 Km and climbing. --- 15 Km --- 21 Km --- 28 Km, and orbit height. ``Captain: Full check list Jarry. ``Jarry: Zaa Captain. ``Captain: That was hairy, Dux. ``Dux: I could feel the tension. ``Kirin: The controls are still on the heavy side. ``Captain: I Agree, and we must allow double time for all manoeuvres. ``Jarry: All clear, but the gauges are reading a bit high. ``Captain: Dux come with me, quin and we will go and take a look for ourselves. ``Dux: Zaa, Captain. --- ``Captain: I will enter into the Captain’s log, that some gauges are reading high, probably due to the overweight limit. ``Dux: We must do another check when we come out of Hyperdrive. ``Captain: Confirmed. Mach 1, Kirin. --- Mach 4 --- Mach 8. What do you think Dux? ``Dux: Kirin, has the last word. ``Kirin: The controls are still slow to respond, but everything appears to be okay. ``Captain: Mach 14. ``Dux: This is amazing Captain, I have never travelled at this speed. ``Captain: Hyperdrive. ``Jarry: It is slow waiting for light to come on. --- On, at last. ``Captain: That is a relief. Drinks Jarry. ``Jarry: Zaa, but we are only maintaining Mach 11. ``Captain: Zarfs, and I am not surprised. ``Dux: As long as we can maintain Mach 11, I too am contented, as my maximum speed was Mach 8 until now. {S182 Lower Deck ~ 4} ``Vanna: This is an incredible sight to see, so is everyone okay? [Zarfs] We should be docking in 12-hours as we can only manage Mach 11 because we are over weight limit. ``Auntie: Tetra, let me explain the accent rules of Cassiopeian decade card game. ``Tetra: Wow, this is different. ``Vanna: Everyone appears to be coping well. ``Zola: It is a good job that you managed to get me back here in time, as I would never had forgiven you. ``Vanna: I would not have forgiven myself not to tell you, even if you said, get lost or another time. ``Zola: It is one of your dilemma’s reflecting back on me. ``Vanna: I have arranged through Dux, to meet their Oligarchy. ``Zola: Do you want to become a queen or something? ``Vanna: You will do instead! Zola: Queenly. < Previous Page 545     Vega <13.5.7> Ambient [20 = 487 <532> 00 = 110]     Next Page 547>
