When Chad entered the control room and everyone looked at him, he felt that something was different, he didn't know what it was that was different but something was definitely different. ‘What is it?’ he thought to himself as he looked around, searching for the source of discomfort he was feeling and it didn't take long before he found it. Only the stranger was okay, the rest had a problem. The way they looked at him, it felt like they were looking at meat just waiting to be devoured and to be clear, he was the meat. “Captain…what's going on?” Chad asked with a cautious look. “You must be Chad, the second most important in the crew, don't worry, as long as I'm here, you're safe.” said Luke with a slight smile. ‘Who's this handsome man and what does he mean by I'm safe as long as he's here.’ “By the way, I'm Luke, the new captain of this ship, isn't that exciting?” “Captain, what the fuck is going on?” Swoosh! Swoosh! Emily and Judith appeared beside Chad, grabbed him by the arms and dragged him towards Luke, Yamih didn't say anything ,neither did Carter. “What's going on here?!” Sasha arrived just in time to see her mentor being dragged towards the handsome stranger. ‘So handsome.’ “You must be Sasha, it's good that the whole team is here, I can now proceed with the next step of my plans.” … “We're here,” said Yamih. “What is that?!” Luke asked with a shocked voice. Before him, floating in the sky, was the largest man-made creation he'd ever seen. He'd never seen satellites in space before but he was sure they weren't as big as what he was looking at. The spaceship was flying towards a rectangular prism floating skyscraper with a wheel-like structure connected to its top. This skyscraper was millions of miles wide tens of millions of miles in length and had two red glowing line, separating it into three segments. It was made with glass and a greyish black metal and could house tens of millions of people. Below this skyscraper, on the ground, human settlements were built around a massive open field with the letter ‘T’ engraved on it. The houses below were also beautiful but compared to the skyscraper, they were sub-par. “That's our first and last line of defence, Sky City Eternas.” … Yamih controlled the ship to fly towards the middle section of the skyscraper. “This is Captain Yamih of the Yamih Couriers, requesting permission to enter Eternas.” Yamih spoke through the mic on the ship. <Permission granted, your spaceship will be led to an available parking space.> sounded a mechanical response. Yamih then put the ship on auto pilot mode because to park in Eternas required a machine-like mind which no one on the ship had. Compared to the Eternas, the spaceship was as tiny as an ant. Two large glasses moved aside to create an opening and the spaceship entered through this opening. Inside, it was completely dark and the only source of illumination were red lights, lights used to direct ships to their parking space. The ship flew for around thirty minutes and took many twists and turns until it finally reached its destination and landed safely. The spaceship opened and seven people got off the ship, robots that were on standby then entered the ship to carry the parcels they came with. “So, where to from here?” Luke asked. “We'll first deliver the parcels in their respective Pick-up Points then we'll go to our HQ where we stay, that's where we'll be spending most of our time.” said Yamih as the robots had already begun loading everything into the big truck in the parking lot. … For the rest of the day, Yamih and his crew finished their deliveries and then drove the truck into the parking lot of a 3Star hotel. After parking, they entered the building through the hotel's entrance, the security guards welcomed them warmly and with great familiarity, a clear indication that the group had been living here for quite some time. The hotel receptionist also welcomed them warmly as they took the elevator to their suite. In the suit
