Nick informed the crew of the mission that their crew capsule module was not working perfectly.

Rohit:What!!??But why!!??

Nick:Don't worry it's just a program error,we are fixing the issue.

Benjamin:But Listen-

Nick:I will be responding in 5 minutes.

Before anyone could say anything Nick cut the transmission line.

Korton:I think we should wait for 5 minutes.

Shinzo:And pray to God.

10 minutes passed by but still no contact was established between the mission control and the mission team.

Korton:I think we should try reconnecting to the mission control.

Benjamin:Yes.

They tried multiple times,but in vain.

Rohit:The rocket is about to enter the lunar orbit.

Shinzo:Please,we should try again.

Rohit:What should I do,enter the orbit or leave it.

Benjamin:God,I don't want to die here.

Korton;But if we leave,we would escape earth's gravitational field and wander into space.

Rohit:Yes!!

Shinzo:We should take the command.Control the rocket.

Rohit:As you wish.

The crew transferred the control master from mission control to their team.The proccess took 1 minute.

AFTER 1 MINUTE

Rohit:Ok guys..we are going to enter into the lunar orbit-

Just then the rocket fliiped and took a turn.It entered aggressively into the lunar orbit.

Korton:Oh!!

Shinzo:Uhh!!

Rohit:Oh my God.

Benjamin:Good lord..what it was?

Rohit:We were just goung to hit an space rock orbiting the moon,when I rotated the rocket.Since we are guided by only our own rocket visuals and no support from the mission control,it is difficult for me to guide the rocket.

Korton:You saved us!!

Shinzo:You are an expert astronaut Rohit!!

Benjamin:Thank God.

AFTER 1 MINUTE

Rohit:Ok,guys we enterd the orbit successfully..and....now it is..the time..to..detach....the IInd Stage engine..and..yes....it is done.

Korton:Congratulations!!

Shinzo:Hip hip hurray!!

AFTER A FEW MINUTES

Rohit:Uh..Shinzo I think you are best suited for this job.

Shizno:What??

Rohit:We need the emergency transponder to be on and since all the control buttons aren't in our hand,we have to turn it on manually.If you can please go to the bottom of the crew capsule and turn on the transponders.

Shinzo:Yes,sure.

Shinzo proceeds to the back.Just then the rocket again flipped.

Shinzo hitted the door hardly.

Rohit:Sorry sorry!!

Shizo:What it was!!??

Rohit:Orbit maneuveration.

Shinzo:Drive it carefully boy.

Rohit:Yes.

AFTER A FEW SECONDS

Shinzo:I had turned it on.

Rohit:Yes!!

Benjamin:Hip hip hurray!!

Rohit:Look guys..we are going yo land to tighten your seat belts.And wear your oxygen mask.As stated earlier,we are not guided by the mission control so anything can happen.

Benjamin:What do you mean by Anything!!??

Korton:Anything means 'ANYTHING'.

Shinzo:Let's go.

Rohit:We are on.

The lander opened at time and the crew capsule landed on the lunar surface,violently and aggressively,but the lander legs were powerful enough to handle the pressure.

The crew members were a bit injured and unconscious.

AFTER A FEW MINUTES

The receiver spoke up.

Nick:Hello mission??Hello??

Rohit:Uh!!

Nick:Mission!!

Korton:It hurts a little.

Shinzo:Where are we?

Nick:Mission respond!!

Benjamin:It really hurts.

Rohit and Korton get others up.

Nick:MISSION!!

Benjamin:Yes we can hear.

Korton:Look who comes now,that who left us in danger.

Nick:I-

Shinzo:##$*@#

Nick:Look,we were trying to connect to you but we were unable to communicate with you because of that unknown signal tampering with our communicaton.We turned the emergency program on,thatswhy you people were able to land successfully and safely.We also also improved the lander orientation.

Benjamin:Ok ok,what are our next commands?

Nick:Go to the spot,find out the source of the signal and collect as much information as you can.

Shinzo:Question?What if it is an alien?

Nick:Your first attempt should be peaceful contact,I repeat peaceful contact.

Rohit:Korton,have you heard?

Korton:Yes,I am right on holding my rifle.

Shinzo:Ok guys,I would be going first followed by Korton,then Rohit and at last Benjamin.

Korton:Ok.

Shinzo:We have three day to live here and investigate the matter.Look,we have sufficient oxygen to last for 3 days and 8 hours.

Rohit:Ok.

All of them get down the rocket,one by one.

Shinzo:Check that all channels are on.Authenticate the medical line.

Korton:Ok.

Benjamin:Done.

Rohit:So let's head on.We are near a crater,so watch your step carefully.I can see that cliff,we will first get to that.It will serve as a vantage point.From then,we can decide which is the direction of source.

Shinzo:Ok,you can lead us.

Korton:But wait!!

Brnjamin:But why!!??

Korton:Let's send Commander a pic of us.

Rohit:Sure.

Shinzo:I will click the picture.

(You can see the pic on the top the story i.e. at the starting above heading/chapter name)

Rohit:Let's head on now.Commander we will contact you later.

Nick:Ok goodluck.

MEDICAL LINE SWITCHED ON

As they were moving closer to the cliffs.

Benjamin:Strange,what could be the source of the signal.

Rohit:The Americans can know,after all they were here for six times!

Shinzo:I had heared that the Soviets had also their plan of lunar mission.

Korton:Yeah,but they only sent drones and satellites,never a human.

THEY GOT CLOSE ENOUGH TO THE CLIFF.

Rohit:Ok I will start climbing first.

They started climbing.

Korton:Uh..where should I put my foot next on?

Benjamin:Anywhere but not on my head.

Shinzo:Guys,I see that rock moving.

Rohit:I think you are losing your conscious,you can drink water.

Korton:(laughing at Shinzo):Are you trying to scare us?

Shinzo:But really.

AFTER SOMETIME

Shinzo:Guys I again saw that rock moving.

Benjamin:Come on-

Shinzo:Yeah yeah,Ben.

Rohit:Ben?

Shinzo:His new nickname.

Rohit:Oh.

Shinzo:I fear a avalanche is coming.

Rohit:But why-

Suddenly a rock moved and proceeded towards the astronauts.

Shinzo:(shouting)Ben move on!!

Benjamin jumped across his way falling backward.

Rohit:Ben!!

Korton:Ben!!

Rohit:Let-

Korton'Let's see.

They went towards Benjamin.

Benjamin:I am..I am alright.Don't worry,I moved before that rock hitted me.

Rohit:(sighs)Phew!!

Benjamin:But where's Shinzo?

Rohit:He was right here-

Korton:Look there!!

Rohit:I can't beliive my eyes!!

Shinzo:No,no,no,no!!
