The lights were blinking in the room and the alarm sound wasn't stopping.
"Please tell me that's a good thing," Tyson said in a worried tone .
"Probably," Jasmine replied, and she walked out of the second room.
"Probably?" Tyson exclaimed, and they followed her to the second room.
"What's wrong, why the lights and sound," Jake asked, he pressed his face harder with the blue cold mineral .
"I set it that way, it's an alert for something important," Jasmine replied.
She went straight to her scorpion chair, by her holotop she then began to type away.
The screen soon changed into a topographical map interface, soon red dots began to popup on the topographical map and they were many to count.
"The scan's complete, the satellite scanned five hundred kilometer of terrain, " Jasmine announced.
"That means we're getting out of here soon, right?" Tyson asked.
"Hold your excitement, we still have to get to the energy crystal closest to us, and alot of things might come our way we don't know the creatures that we will encounter, and with no information about any creatures on this planet, it's like we're going out blindfolded, certain measures and caution would be taken," She informed.
She began to type on the holotop again, and the topographical map began to zoom in.
And a blue line traced the location they were to the closest energy crystal around them, it read one hundred and two kilometers.
"Is that the closest to us?, it's one hundred and two kilometers, that's far," Xadia said.
"That's what the satellite read, it's still the best we can take, I made the system calculate the safest terrain we can take, some are close but to get there would be very difficult, that's why this one's the one we're going to for," Jasmine replied.
"That's okay, we wouldn't wanna end up in a ground base volcano, we will follow your intended route," Tyson commented.
"I still have to mark out our camping sites, and it might take some time to finish plotting out the routes and also the weather of the routes. It seems that this plant undergoes weather changes almost all the time, so I'll have to read the atmospheric temperatures too," Jasmine explained.
"Let's just hope Ivy's ready for the spell, how entire journey depends on her," Jake pointed out
"She's been cultivating since we woke up, she'll attune to the energy, has long has nothing breaks are concentration," Tyson said.
"We should prepare for the journey, since Jasmine will be busy with the route preparations, I'll go grill the remaining meat chops, while you and Jake will continue filling the pipe tube with water, Jasmine will purify it along the way, I'll be going now," Xadia asserted.
"There are glass containers on the shelf, take as many as you can contain," Ivy informed.
They soon went on with their task, Jake and Tyson left for the lake.
Xadia proceeded to the kitchenette to grill the remaining meat chops. Funny enough, at a time like this, he could see the projection of the meats undercooked places, and he could tell where to concentrate the grill on, and the perfect meat chops were being made, he arranged them in a plastic container.
Jake and Tyson was busy coming in and going out in intervals, and the pipe tank was soon to be full. The sky outside was now glittering red it was night time. They soon finished their task and got together to eat currell packs for supper, and the deal made between Xadia and Tyson was put in action, Tyson got an extra two currell packs, it shortened the currell packs, but there were lots of meat chops for later, so they didn't really mind.
Jasmine was the on to feed her friend this time, she wasn't breaking concentration and she consumed the food that was given to her, her eyes were closed and she was lead to her pod to continue her cultivation.
Jasmine went straight back to the holotop to plan for any obstacles on the way, she wanted to be prepared for anything, they would suffer no set backs.
"Be sure to get some rest, the night's turning cold, you'll need your strength for the journey tomorrow," Tyson told, and Jasmine's cheek flushed.
"Don't worry about me, I have a solution for that," Jasmine replied, she then moved to the second room and came back with a cup filled with water on her right hand and a sachet with a blue powdered mineral on her left, a necklace could also be seen on her neck, it was beaming red.
She poured the powder in the sachet into the water and stirred it to dissolved.
"The blood stone I made is radiating heat, so it'll keep me warm for as long as I'm awake, while this will keep me energetic, it's like coffee," Jasmine explained.
"Then I'll leave you to it," He responded and went to his pod. Jake was about to close up for the night, his stomach rumbled and he moved his sight to Tyson and Xadia.
"Nuh-huh, not tonight, go to bed, you'll have plenty to eat in the morning," Tyson said and pressed the button within his pod, it's cover slid in, it then operated to a horizontal position. They all went to sleep leaving Jasmine to herself.
Morning came, at most the sky was now shining the orbiting clouds could be seen and the star cloud was the reason for the light that shone, it was like the star cloud brought light while the crescent cloud brought red darkness.
Tyson was first to awake, he opened his pod and he could see Jasmine's head on the table, her curly afro style were held together by a blue glowing band, her mouth was open and a stream of her curly wave frontal hair was in her mouth . 'She really stayed up all night,' Tyson internally thought, he then caressed the hair from her mouth. She felt his touch and jerked up instantly.
"Morning!," Tyson said instantly, as if he was guilty of something.
"Morning," Jasmine replied.
"You stayed up all night,"
"Eeerrrrrr not really, I had to do a little of the water purification and checked the grill's to the kitchenette's oven and cooler, I also checked the routes-" She explained with her eyes rolled up and she gestured with her hands, her eyes then drifted back to Tyson's dropped facial expression. "Alright, you caught me, I did," She confessed.
The other pods soon began to move as it moves to a vertical position, it opened and Xadia and Jake came out. Jake yawned while stretching.
"What's for breakfast," Jake asked.
Jasmine moved to Ivy's pod and pressed a button, it opened and she guided Ivy to her cultivation position, as if she knew what was happening she got into a lotus position.
'She's still at it,' Tyson internally thought.
"I'll go bring the meat chops," Jasmine announced
She left the room and soon came out with the meat chops and shared it, she fed to Ivy too.
She went back again and brought out four green coloured bottles. "What's that," Jake asked.
"It's for you three, since we're going to be rationing food, this is what I came up with to contain you guys," Jasmine said, and shared it with them, she gave two specially to Jake.
They all drank it and the drink was beginning to take effect, it felt like they ate more they had just consumed, the effect was doubled to Jake's stomach, he drank two of it.
Jake touched his belly, "What did you put in this," Jake asked.
"That's not something you should worry about that, it's a supplement juice, you guys digest fast, so I gave it to you, two was appropriate for you, you know cause of your mutant anatomy," Jasmine explained.
"So are we good to go," Tyson asked
"Yes, it's time, we should be able to do two days, if we're fast enough," Jasmine informed.
They all came out of the dome, Ivy was led out, and Jasmine quickly went back in to do some tinkering.
She then pressed on her holowatch and a screen interface could be seen. She tapped on the dome icon and four laser lines shot at the dome and it spread in rays of light until it enveloped the dome and made it disappear into the watch.
Tyson was staring at the lake beneath them and he was sure it was farther than this.
"Xadia, I think you were right, the lake is alive," Tyson said and they all looked at the lake, it seemed to have moved from it's original position.
"That's creepy," Jake took the words out of Xadia's mouth.
"We might experience more strange things like this on the way, we're to stick together, no one is taking a snack of meat chops," She glanced at Jake while saying this. "It will attract creatures, let's do our best to know what we're stepping on, and no curiosity sparks," She smiled at Tyson.
"We're going and conquering, we're voyaging and reaching out destination, this is weird, I suck at speech," She shook her head and took a breath.
"Okay, let's go," Jasmine said looking at the forest of trees.
