another chapter of the red planet!


So apperently the world governments were planing to create a space program and send all of the "new comers" into space to live peacefully in the newly designed biodomes that could aperently suport the entire world population, yet it would only be used to house a small fraction of fursons because they were just "to difforent". Of course a bunch of them started to protest but soon realised that they woulden't have to live on the same planet with a bunch of raceist pricks and could even have their own all to themselves. Of course I realised this early on and signed up for the colonist crew and even convinced my night in midnight black armor to sign on to. their was currently only enough money to create one large spacecraft at the time so living space was a bit tight, their would be a rest stop before we reached Mars though. The humans had created an experimental space staition shaped like a giant "space bubble" that is about a six hundred mile circumfrence that can withstand a radioactive blast as powerful as the sun exploding, but no, the humans couldent bear to give up that space to the dirty lower inhabitants. They had to put us on an un-inhabited planet that hasen't even been screened in over twenty years! Harping put aside it was at least somewhere to live in peace and harmony with others like you, and at least the humans were kind enough to give us a place to live unlike that old move called district 9 where they shoved them into a small unliveable fenced in area.

Once the shutle was built and took off with the first batch of furs it was prety un-eventfull up untill we reached the "space bubble" otherwise known as the Discoverer. Aperently the radio signals reached just before we arived (black hole engins are extremely fast, just a bit faster than the speed of sound) and when we borded the furs that transformed on the station were in a scramble to pack their belongings and board, even though we were schedualed to be docked for over two days, aperently the furs weren't treated very fairly on the station because the human crew members were seemingly overjoyed to unload all of the "unecissary passengers", to this I was extreemely apaled, but like a smarter furson, kept my mouth shut, aperently some of the others weren't as lucky because their were certain extremely mal-nurished furs in orange prison atire.

Once we un-docked our medical fursonel were imediatly put to carring for the prisoner furrs that were obviosly mis treated in jail and all for speaking out in protection of themselves or their family's. But what truly made my blood boil was that some of the prisoners had to be put into stasis pods to keep their bodys at a stable level so their major organs wouldent give out on them until we could get the proper medical equitment for their treatment. When we got to Mars we would have to run the backup generators to keep these furrs alive, but we didn't have any dark mater to spare so two people will have to manualy produce the energy themselves. How you ask, bikes bloody excercise bikes. And we would have to be running the generator for about six hours before the biodomes were set up and then another three while they were teraformed enough to be able to breathe the air inside, that is fricken NINE HOURS on an EXCERSIZE BIKE!!! And lucky for me guess wich dorm was randomly selected to run the generator, I'll give you a hint 102A, mine and the dragons dorm room, how lucky. And another stroke of pure 'luck' was that I was gravaty sick, it's kinda like sea sick except its about ten billion times worse. Just imagen not being acustomed to a strong gravity well, like a planet, and then being ploped right back onto another one.

Once an excruciating nine hours of pedaling we were finaly alowed to go to our asigned dorm, the same number as our ships room 102A, and rest. Once we steped outside I was stuned, not by copious amounts of exsorcise, but what the building inside the dome looked like. It looked almost exactly like a very big colege campus, shops and everything.
