Missing Astronauts Timeline
-Page 1 - Science it's fair-
The crowds are cheering, as the host introduces the first group of Astronomers.
On a sunny day; specifically afternoon. The students, not teachers gathered together at that one booth
-As we launch this, a rocket made photo booth, as we named it "Past made simuz", and we science club would like to thank you for your participation and time. Also thank you for the science teachers who supported us, Ma'am, Sir.- Daphne said in a microphone.
-let's welcome Team Astronomers! Whose leader, Gabriel Velasco with his members Jasmine Arevalo, Cyrus Castillo and Jael Torres! Wow looking good in spacesuits! Kamusta po.- Liam said in a microphone, as both of them are the host.
The crowds are hyped and excited to see them, where they wear engineers uniform: such as the leader Gabriel wore the full engineering suit, and while his members wore the fluorescent jacket uniform. Besides the team all wear hard hat
-Bakit nagmumuka silang tanga?- Liam asked as he wasn't on his microphone and confused too. -Why did the science club ever pick this?- he asked, -Bobo, ay Liam ka member ka nga. At tsaka that's the best we can afford.- Daphne responded without her microphone. But her partner did not agree with it.
The team Astronomers now set foot on the past made simuz, and inside was dark that they sit on a bench; indeed a couch bench. Knowing the camera is in front of them, so the one science club member ask if everythings okay after that it close the curtains. One of them starts screaming,
-Hey, wag nga maingay.- Gabriel said, -May humahawak sa binti ko!- Cyrus yelled, -Jael wag ka manakot.- Gabriel told her, -Aah, may nananabunot!- napaka sino yon?!- Jael said as she is annoyed, -Si Cyrus ba, haba ng braso eh.- Jasmine laughed, but Jael stand up to her seat to slap Cyrus head that has his hard hat removed. That she grabs his hair and starts pulling it, -Aray! Ang sakit!- he feels the pain, -Tama na, mag serious na kayo!- Gabriel said, so Jael came from her seat as the photo booth starts to shake likewise and earthquake.
Because of that they stay still and the camera flash in front of them; indeed so bright that they thought being blind is next.
The shaking stop, yet the past made simuz machine starts to fall similar to an elevator. Don't worry it has a sliding door that the outside is a curtain, and in 5 minutes the machine begins to float, and luckily they have seatbelts on, as it floats upside down to back.
Suddenly they hear something from the machine sounding like a motor engine starting. So actually outside the machine it has a turbo, now compresses exhaust gas as it exits and sends it back into the engine, why? Because the increased airflow sends more fuel into the engine giving it more power. (Source: Google)
It lead them to a planet as inside of the past made simuz is the team, so it has small amount of gravity even there's no way which means, they are in space. One light bulb is on the, as the team hold on to each other -Yun oh, buti may ilaw na, Thank you Lord!- Jasmine said, -Grabe nagkumpulan na yung mga bag, oh.- Cyrus said, and they notice that their leader is not feeling well, -Masakit ba ulo mo?- Jael asked as she is beside him and touching his back. -Ki - no comfort mo?- the girl next to her asked.
-Obvious ba, Jasmine?- Jael replied with a smile. The grade 9 or year 3 student stares at the window on top the camera, -Wow may mga stars.- he said, -Umaandar pala 'to?- he asked and no one answered.
-Looks like someone's about to puke.- Jael said, -Jasmine, hey Arevalo. Kunin mo nga yung paper bag sa bag ko.- she added, so Jasmine takes off her seat belt and suddenly she starts floating, she was flipped upside down but still managed to get the bag. The team was surprised to see her except Gabriel, -Kunin mo.- she said as she hand it over. However Jasmine struggles to go back to her seat, -Tsk, teka tulungan na nga kita.- Cyrus said taking off his seat belt, as he floats too.
So now they are both on top of the roof, and he holds Jasmine's arms; namely he is like superman now. Both of his feet steps on the wall -Hala! Sure ka ba? Alanganin.- she said worried, -Ready? Tanga kaysa naman ma highblood ka na dyan.- he said as he is concerned but thankfully that Jasmine's red face is coming back to normal. He now push her back to her seat, and Cyrus told her to hurry put the seatbelt on while he is still holding her and she did.
That he slowly let go and cannot hold her anymore, -Guys...ay ladies din pala, parang nasa underwater lang tayo. Kailangan lang marunong sumisid.- their leader said, as he is still recovering after a puke. There is a small wall fan on the wall but it's still a bit hot. Cyrus then look at the window at the bottom of the roof, he saw a planet; that is near them like they have reach it.
-Tignan niyo naka balik na tayo sa earth!- he happily said, he has found hope. -¿Las cuatro de la mañana?- Jael said as she looks at her phone, -Ano? Ano daw?- her team are confused -Spanish ka ba, Torres?- Jasmine asked -I'm Mexican, a pirate of course~- she proudly answered, and the boy floating starts to panic -May pirata! Aaah, mag swimming na tayo! Swimming!- he said as he swims around, -Castillo huwag ka nga OA?! Nababaliw ka na ba?- A girl with super curly hair said. - Boi Lutang ka na?- their cute short leader questioned.
-Luh Baka ikaw nahihilo.- the boy who is floating, and stares at him said, -Hoy wag ka ganyan sa leader ko, di ko nga inaaway yan e.- A pirate girl with an eye patch yelled, -Natin! Wrong grammar ka.- Cyrus said and he stares at the window again. -Huy guys pa landing na tayo!- he yelled as he turn back and position himself as superman the push to go back to his seat, he grabs his seatbelt and pulls it while he turn around with a good posture to actually put on his seatbelt.
The past made simuz machine begins to shake, and it stop only for the lights to be turn off as usual they panicked, -Brownout nanaman.- Jasmine said. Outside the turbo stopped letting out smoke as the team hear the engine has shut down, as a result of the Past made simuz falling from the stratosphere and now reach the trotosphere; specifically they are in the sky.
The machine tumble but suddenly the falling becomes slow but it happens if it's similar to the height of a mountain. The falling experience is like a feather however little did the team know the machine have a parachute, as it activates.
Inside they view the window seeing a tall mountain and it's still dark outside, -Okay lang kayo? Okay team naka landing na tayo.- Gabriel said. The electricity is back on.
+Page 2 - Team Astronomers: To Nasus Pioneers... Nasa earth ulit kami, safe landing naman.+
Text sent to the Nasus Pioneers who is another group of the science club.
Gabriel sent another message "Wag kayo mag alala boi, okay naman kami...Kaso na saan kami?" He typed that on top of the camera where the keyboard is.
Seeing the text is on the big screen looking like a computer was screwed there, and the team takes off their seatbelt and goes to check their bags. -Need natin-flashlight.- the black girl said, -'di ko abot yung bintana, di ko makita mierda.- Jael said as she steps on the bench but still could not see it. -Alis na tayo dito.- Jasmine said as she pull the sliding door.
But there is water coming -Water! Huy may tubig!- she said as surprised, -Nasa ilog tayo!- Cyrus came along, so Jasmine put a light on it to only see shallow water. -Okay lang guys, basta kailangan nating umalis muna dito.- their little leader said, so Jasmine slowly go outside results to the shoes becoming wet and her members followed.
As they reach the ground, and see that their small rocket is near a big rock so that it stays there.
Cyrus and Jael put down the tent, -Nag umaga na ngayon, oras na Torres?- their leader asked, and she took it out of her pocket, -5:34 morning, wala signal dito.- she said. -Torres, tignan mo kung ano date na. Tuesday ba?- Jasmine asked, and they see that it's half dark -hmm...naka stuck pa rin sa monday pero nag babago yung time.- she replied.
While Gabriel is walking around to see where they were supposed to go, -This still Philippines?...I mean pilipinas pa rin to.- Jasmine asked, -Arevalo, baka ibang bansa na e.- Gabriel said, -Kailangan natin ng rope ba yun? Basta pang hila sa Machine na yan.- Jael suggested.
As their leader is looking for a way through the mountain which is in front of them is a forest, and he finally found a way. -Guys halika dito! Team dito!- he yelled, and it reached them, so Jasmine went there but Cyrus is not sure -Iwan ba natin to, past made simuz? Baka manakaw.- he said worried.
-Mabilis lang naman tayo.- Jael replied; she was tired of it, -Do you see anyone? Don't worry we, team can do this!- she added, but leaving him confused and he just agrees, so they come to their leader who is waiting for them.
-May ahas dyan, *makes a sound of a snake.- Cyrus said, as him and Jasmine carry the heavy tent bag.
The other two have a flashlight to hold on to, stepping through the dry leaves on the ground and it isn't steep yet the way is narrow.
In the middle they see from a distance a big thin tree -Laki ng puno oh, nakakatakot.- Gabriel said as he is afraid, -Bakit? Ako na nga sa dyan. Follow me.- Jael said as she is now leading the way, -Tapang ah.- Cyrus at the back said.
As they are near a sign that caught her attention; namely attached to the thin tree, -Dao City, Bahaghari. This is the Dracontomelon Dao tree.- Jael read it, and the two put down the tent for a moment,
-Dao City? At Bahaghari 'di ba rainbow yon?- Cyrus asked,
-Yan nga yung lugar, nasa Dao City tayo which is part of Bahaghari gets mo?- Jasmine responded, and Cyrus nodded no.
-In US alam mo?- she added, and he nodded yes.
-Sa Massachusetts ang capital Boston, so kunwari nasa Boston tayo which is part of Massachusetts. Get it?- Jasmine asked,finally he nodded yes.
That leaves Jael amazed by her accent while she claps her hand, so the boys did too. Later Gabriel goes around the tree to see another way however it's now steep like the need to hold on to the trees.
So they went up the hill very carefully so that they would not slip, and Cyrus tries to look back at the Dao tree but saw something shining like a woman in a gown. "Ganda niya pero nakakatakot bakit siya ganon, bobo wag ka ma distract Cyrus." He thought and looks at his team again.
While walking to a steep path it slowly becomes flat, and suddenly on their way the dirt is sand now.
That made them confused -Nasa dagat na tayo? Malapit na.- Jasmine asked,
and Jael sniffs the air that the boy behind him thinks "Amoy pagkain ba? Aso ba to. De joke."
-Ahh, I don't smell it. The smell of the sea ain't here.- Jael said,
-Wow accent ka te.- the boy at the back said.
-Kuya, ibig sabihin walang dagat dito kasi we are on the mountain top, common sense ba.- Jasmine told him, as it is morning they can see the forest more clearly.
(Time Check: 06:53am) Jael sees where the sand ends and she begins to run towards it leaving her team surprised -Follow me, this way!- She yelled,
-Hoyy wait lang! Nangiiwan oh, Gabriel!- The boy at the back shouted, and both of them hurry up while carrying the heavy tent bag.
Jael came first seeing a field of sand there, and around is still a forest -Mountain...tops na to. Feel ko- lang.- still catching breath as Jael said. Then the little boy catch up too, they both put down their bag and Jael notices a sign it reads -Mang D. Campsite. Dao City, Bahaghari.- She read, and their leader decides to stay here until they find a rope.
The other two catches up and when they see the bags they throw the tent bag over there then both of them are still standing because of exhaustion, -Tayo ka lang, Cyrus. Baka mahimatay ka niyan. Basta.- Jasmine told him, -Mahimatay?- Cyrus complained, and he is still standing. Afterwards Jael found a rope and came back to the campsite where her team had set up the tent and still lightning the campfire, (Time around: 08:37am).
!Page 3 - Stay out of Sci-Club!
Liam's POV:
Actually we did not expect it to boom
Today we science club were brought to trouble
While our treasurer is doing a division to the money
We must fix this but knowing who's at fault
It's just a minor injury for us
Well I don't know for the adults
Present-day we might celebrate
A "wine money" to give
In this afternoon under a foliage might be good
It's been a while after what happened
The audience had left
Since thinking about tomorrow is the last day
-Susan, did we just lost some strangers?!-
Liam asked, as having a second thought.
While Susan put down an particular ball
Under the table
-Ate Susan, Why?! Magma kasi tayo nito!-
Liam argued,
-'Di mo ba alam purpose nito,Liam?-
Susan said thinking he's an idiot.
-Well you just fuck off those teenagers.-
Liam said as he kicked a chair away; that is a plastic chair.
-Liam need mo lang ng therapy dahil sa ugali mo.- Susan told him.
As the members of the club heard them.
-We both need! Para mawalan na yang sakit ng utak mo.- he annoyingly said
As the other members tried to stop him from hurting...
-Sorry, pero ayaw mo ba Makita ang positive side nito?- She asked, and he still don't dark to look.
-Well Nasus Pioneers is coming to a certain place, you don't want to come?- she asked again.
I don't want to know what's going on to her plan, since the place is fraternity. Me? Why am I.
Daphne's POV:
My brother just called me that he will be late
8pm his training ends
It was night, as I went home after school
Remembering not locking that door
But when I sit in the chair of our Dining room
Got a text through my phone
-Hii! Duran, we should meet up this time. Pero bukas pa, Dito sa amin.-
The next day in mabuhay 2000, a far but near from school
One rented house where a Mother stayed
Cleaning the house while listening to worship song
The teenager came out of the room
Wearing her uniform, as about to hang her towel
-Mom, what's the purpose of being here? When we can't go to dad's?- She asked,
As she is doing her makeup in front of their full body mirror, so her Mom turn off the music.
-*Sigh, you know Elsie a lot of things happen in the beginning of the year. Your dad has business to do, on the other side.- Mother Sofia said, as she stopped mopping the floor.
-But Mom, you just bring home some like us. You know how it affects me and Jasmine.- Elsie complained, when she looks at her mom and make up is done.
-Hey Elsie, don't be rude!- Mother Sofia argued, -Mom I'm telling the truth. Jasmine and that pirate girl isn't home yet. Mom, I'm telling you it not safe here!- Elsie complained.
At that moment Mother Sofia realized
And begins to worry, so he daughter approach her -Mom I'm sorry, we should report that the two girls where missing and last seen at school.- She begged.
-I freed you kids from the war. You should be thankful.- Mom said, feeling helpless, but -Dad's is still there, saying we should do something Mom!- Elsie yelled as she is surprised.
-Elsie, did Isha have her medicine?- Mother Sofia asked, and her daughter raised her phone, -No worries, Mom. I got it, and she texted me back.- She proudly said. Mentioning Elsie is in Senior high grade 12 after noon class, also year 4 is the two kids who is free from the war.
Mother Sofia looks at the clock hanging
-It's almost 11 o'clock, Elsie you have to wake that boy.- she giggled. -Je, ese chico malo. Thought he was mature.- she replied.
Lance POV:
When the event at school ended
The sun was already set
-It's really been a long day?-
He asked, as he found Isha still at the covered court.
We headed to the school gate and outside
There is a transportation; that is called tricycle.
Lance guide her since she is not feeling well, instead of walking home they decide to take a ride on the tricycle.
When they arrive, the tricycle driver is calling students who will go to a place.
He notice and looks at the two, as she asked -Mabuhay 2k po.- and he nodded.
Both of them sit on the driver seat, -I think I have a fever, comrade.- Isha murmured.
-Let's roll.- the tricycle driver said as he thinks the two are foreigners.
Since we are at the seat where we can see, someone who is a boy student took a shot of us; that is with a flash on.
Lady thing he was from a distance below or underground, and a glimpse where he call somebody through a phone.
I didn't think who if comrade saw it, but on the road I feel something was off.
As we reach the Mabuhay 2000
Isha is sweating, when we get off
Walking home through the market
We stopped she feels fatigued
So I support and hold her
Out of the blue I see the same student
Takes a shot of us again
-Where almost there.- he said,
We walk but someone approach us
-You need help, Kuya?- the student from earlier -Yeah, thanks. Are you from here?- Lance asked, as how miserable he felt is disappearing.
The boy student displays supporting Isha, making a human crutch yet the boy is short.
-Uh, yes po Kuya. Sorry I picture you.- he said,
-May names Liam, what about you?- Liam asked,
-Isha here, and Lance.- She replied, Liam looks back seeing from afar a group of students from the terminal, shivers he felt.
-Ate Isha, Is your house near?- he asked,
-It's Over there, Liam.- she responds
-I-i better go-home. Bye po.- he said,
As both of them arrived home.
-
Liam cross the road, and take his cap
From his bag while walking
Put it on to not be known,
And goes right to reach his home
Hoping nobody of Nasus Pioneers saw him,
While the girl leader of it was home
A meeting with plenty of guest.
Got a call from the members
She pick it up -May nakita Kami, kahawig ni Liam Bautista. Pero 'di namin mamukaan, Hindi na namin siya mahanap.- the member called, and that makes the girl lead angry -Don't worry, haha...bukas makikita niya, magsisisi din yun.- she called. *Call ends.

:( page 4 - Time to take off):
Meanwhile at Promises of Paliparan High School or PPalHS in short. In the afternoon class of grade 8, the Australian girl is sad that her closest classmate is going to transfer, -Tomorrow talaga? Huy te mag last quarter na bakit hindi na lang sa katapusan?- she asked, since they are seatmates and that made her smile -Alicia kasi kailangan na talaga, hindi na ko kayang pag aralin nila Tita. Doon na daw ako muna kay Nanay.- she responded. -Wait, dahil ba sa pinsan mo? Kaya Ililipat ka na?- she asked again as if she was worried, -Aliciaaa, matagal na tayong magkaibigan, nasawa na ko sa pagmumuka mo!...Charot!- Nikki said as she hugs her seatmate; maybe a side hug would do. -Alicia Busch, basta wag palagi bukas bag mo. Manakawan ka sana.- She told Alicia. After class it was night and raining, so in front of their classroom Alicia and Nikki stayed for a moment -Nikki saan ka ba mag transfer? You don't say it though.- she asked, -Masyadong magulo kung iisipin, pero alam mo yung Bahaghari? Doon ako kaso ibang planeta. 'Di ba crazy?!- Nikki answered, and that gives her friend an idea -Wait, ibang planeta? Nakapunta na ko eh.- she said, and they both are surprised and hold hands for excitement. -Okay, ang weird pero pupunta ako don.- Nikki bragged, -Sige sabihin natin kung anong planeta. 1,2,3!- Alicia grinned. Both of them said differently -Agwamarina Planet!- for Nikki and -Domseas Yawe! Planet.- for her friend. That made them confused -Huh? Okay, sa Agwamarina Planet pala ako.- Nikki said, -Okay nahanpin na lang kita don. Bye na.- her friend said, as waving goodbye to each other. "Hanapin? She'll find me there? How?" She thought and was confused. (Time check: 18:26pm).
Next day, it was a heavy raining in their city, so the Mayor announced the suspension of classes. Australian girl wakes up and takes a look at her phone (Time around: 06:00am), as she noticed someone texted her. -ALICIA ASHLEE BUSCH!!, lilipat na kami :-P.- it was neighbour boy who texted, "May pa emoji pa tong si Mark. Huh? Lilipat?" She thought mostly surprised. She texts back -Paki ko =_=. Ng ano? School or what?-, in a minute he text back -Hah? Bahay, lilipat na kami ng bahay ;).- he replied, -Hala kelan pa?- she questioned in text. -Sa sabado.-, -:'( sad na ko boi, 'di na kita kapitbahay.- Mark texted back, and that made Alicia double sad while she puts down her phone for a moment -Nag si alisan na mga kaibigan ko! Nooo.-She yelled, and does feeling hopeless. But despite of that she thinks about where? Because of what her conversation with Nikki went like another planet? She takes her phone and ask neighbour boy the same, while waiting for a text. She decides to do her morning routine (Time check: 07:02am), after that she comb her hair and put on a headband, so that the bangs won't disturb her. Went downstairs to see her Grandma eating breakfast, and called her too. -Goodmorning Ashlee.- she greets her, -Morning, what's that?- Alicia asked, and her Grandma replied -Ampalaya with egg.- and that leaves Alicia disgust by it -Noo, ang pait nyan Grandma.- she said, and Grandma scolded her -Kumain ka ng gulay masustansya yan, hindi puro kung ano-ano.-. Alicia thinks of an idea -Luto na lang ako, egg at hotdog!- she proudly said, -Bahala ka, Ashlee basta kapag na dali kidney mo.- Grandma argued. As Alicia is at the kitchen -Gusto ko kasi tortang talong at least not ampalaya.- she demanded, -Okay...basta tikim lang.- Amelia's Grandchild said. After cooking breakfast, and put it on the table also a little bit of ampalaya with egg. While watching the news, so Alicia gets her phone and looks at the text -Domseas Yawe Planet B-), Yun napuntahan natin.- Mark texted. Alicia eyes are widened, and surprised too, so she texts back -No wayy (@_@), sige dun ka na tumira ayos lang.- Alicia had it. -HAHAHA puntahan kita, tampo ka na boi.- he text back.
(Time check: 12:04nn) In the afternoon it was still raining but not a heavy one, and the neighbour boy came in front of a house but to protect that from any trespassers, there a gate is shown. -Knock, knock! Tao po! ALICIAA!- he shouted, and her grandma told Alicia that there was someone outside. She then hurried that her grandma smells something fishy even though it was just Mark. Her Grandkid opens the gate while holding an umbrella, -Bakit? Ano nanaman yon.- she said in a broad smile, but she was shocked to see him -Hoy naligo ka sa ulan?!- she said, and cannot believe it. -Oa mo naman mag react, Tara court tayo.- he happily said, -Wait I'm gone to ask permission first.- Alicia informed, so she went back inside and her grandma agrees. She ran outside to open the gate and came along with Mark, so as they reached the basketball court, few of the teens came to play; specifically boys. -Oh tira na!- he shouted, while he runs towards the ring to shoot but missed, and he almost slipped that made it funny. -*laugh peram nga. Akin, yung bola!- Alicia said, as she grabs the ball to shoot...-Oh galing!- Mark said, as the ball shoots. He then takes the ball and starts dribbling, -Chamba lang yan. Ganto kasi.- he proudly said, so he shoots yet misses again. -Ohhh nag basketball ka pa ba?- Alicia said; starts to tease him. -Yung ring kasi, malambot... Itong bola rin basa na kasi.- Mark excused, -Nayy no excuses kapag in game na.- she told him.
After that they go to the computer shop -Si Daphne umalis agad sa bahay, na kela Mercado nanaman.- Mark said, -Daphne! Daphne! Tawag ka na!- Alicia yelled, but no one answered since the shop is closed but the house next to it is not. That made them think, -Na sa kanya yung payong.- he said, and they took a peek on the window suddenly hearing some noises like talking. -Sino yun? Bakit nasa sala sila tapos may—.- Mark said but it cuts, -Na-na-nakatali m-may, nakatali sa upuan p-parang, it's as if their ties are t-tight.- Alicia stuttered, and the neighbour boy got concerned and check if Alicia is okay. They turn around to sit on the ground, -Si Lance Canyon w-why is he involved? He is a victim hello?!- She cried, -Wait, may kakilala ka? Naku wala ata magulang ni Susan, kaya kung anong ginagawa nung babae na yun.- Mark answered, -Mark, may hindi maganda kay Susan, dinadamay niya yung iba—tayo na ang sunod.- Alicia said, but suddenly both of them stand up as soon as the door aggressively opens and push that one boy outside. (Time check: 13:53pm) Mark signals Alicia to run away but she wants to help the boy, so luckily the door is shut. Alicia took the time to help the boy who is covered in bruises like being in a fight. -Okay ka lang?- She asked, but the teen boy like them disagrees with it. Seeing that Alicia cannot see the face clearly because of the bruises, -Kailangan mo ba ng tulong? Tulungan ka namin.- she said, and Mark checked on the boy too. -Hindi wag na po, w-wag na kayo mag alala. Kaya ko naman u-u-umuwi.- he cried, -Alicia, pagamot natin siya sa inyo. Tara.- he told her. They stood the boy up even though he didn't like it, and supported him because anytime he could trip.
In Grandma Amelia's home the bruised boy was treated, (time check:14:57pm) after Alicia already showered and changed clothes, so she decided to check on him downstairs. -Grandma is he okay?- she asked, as both of them sat on the sofa. Grandma puts on a cold compress all around his bruises, and the boy makes a noise about it. -Hello sino ka pala?- Alicia asked, but the boy is staring into nothing. Because of that she kind of stares at him for a moment to realize it was her classmate, -Wait! Wait! Liam?! Huyy bakit naki pag suntukan ka ba?- she overreacts, as he responds to nodding no. -Edi sino gumawa nito?- she asked, and the boy became mad by nodding no. -Hindi Busch, wag mo na alamin. Mabuti pa wag ka na maki sali pa sa gulo.- he warned. -Tama na kayong dalawa, oh ayan magklaklase pala kayo. Ikaw Alicia...- Grandma Amelia pointed out, -Kahit papano na tulungan mo siya. Ayos lang ba yon sayo bhe?- she said. -Uh Opo, salamat.- he sadly said.
