Planet: Xyla

Part 1: Fox

"Get that boy!" an angry guard yells.

I run past confused workers and don't stop when I accidentally run right into a woman holding barrels of groceries. "Sorry!" I yell behind me at the woman, who was giving me a dirty look.

I run into a vacant hallway and hide in a storage closet that hasn't been used in probably 20 years. I hold my breath and listen to 3 pairs of feet run past me, angrily yelling my name.

"FOX!!!"

You may want to know what is happening, and where I am.

My name is Fox Starr.

I was born on this ship "Olympus" People call it that because it is a floating city with perfect conditions for human life. They compare it to "Mount Olympus" in Greek mythology, where the gods would live above the mere mortals. A Space ship, that people live on, With self sustaining H2O regenerators and Carbon dioxide scrubbers.

They hired the best chefs, who made the most delicious food you could ever taste. They also had first class technology, holograms and such.

They never had to go back to Earth.

My mother was one of the engineers for "Olympus" so I had an assured spot on the ship.

However, I would soon learn, that "Olympus" is not the paradise it claims to be. In fact, it has a dark secret, that it would do anything to keep.

When the coast was clear, I slipped out of the closet entryway, and make my way through a hallway that connects into the launch pad.

I know that i have only a few minutes until my wanted face is on every tablet screen on the entire ship.

I enter the launch pad, an open space full of cargo ships, unloading,and war ships ready for battle. Even though the pad is bustling with people, everyone is so absorbed n their work that barely anyone notices me.

And that's just how i like it.

I walk casually over to the far left corner to an empty escape pod.

" Get that boy!" the guard yells.

And just before anyone can grab me I climb into the escape pod and blast off, leaving Olympus and everything far behind me.
