This is where I will be posting the stories for the game PogoCity. At the end of everyday I will post the story for all the actions put in a story.
Here's a rough draft I did in a couple minutes, tell me what you think.
Day 5-
"Rise and shine guys" Zang says as he shakes Tony.
“Ugh, 5 more minutes” Swim says as he rolls back over.
“The early bird catches the worm, so get up” Zang replies.
“You do understand there’s no worm on the moon right?” Shoop says from across the room.
“It’s an expression…because like…nevermind” Zang decides not to argue and takes a seat at the table where a couple settlers are already sitting.
After awhile, Swim gets up and joins the crew at the table. Jean goes to her bakery and whips up some doughnuts and brings them back to the crew. All of a sudden while everyone is munching on their doughnuts, Lyserg stands up and says,
“I’m going back to Earth”.
Looks of shock fill the room; whispers go on about what he is talking about.
“I’m going through the teleporter, it’s the only way we can contact Dan Brown and get supplies, and it has to happen.”
Everyone too speechless to even try to speak up. Zang finally stands up.
“Lyserg, you do understand how crazy that is right? You barely know how to use it. The consequences that are possible, we can’t lose you man.” Zang says.
“I know, but if I don’t do it soon the teleporter will break and we won’t be able to do anything. It’s a risk I’ve got to take.”
Everyone got quiet for awhile. They didn’t really know what else to say.
Once everyone finished their doughnuts they went outside to start their busy day.
Nor, who started working first, started putting up flyers all around town. The flyers read: “Got unwanted books? Donate them to your local library! Contact the Museum of Moon History for more information”. The library is pretty bland, with only one book, and that one is about carpentry. No fun reads in there. The crew gathered around the flyers, a few off them raced into the Meeting Hall to get some books they stored away in their suitcase.
Vichilux comes out waddling trying to carry the entire “Harry Potter” saga in one trip to the library. A few seconds later Lightsider runs out with his copy of The Official Jedi Order Handbook. They both handed their books over to Nor. He was so delighted that he just doubled his book count he did a massive group hug with everybody in the settlement.
As soon as the group hug was over, Lyserg said “It’s time.”
Everybody marched over to the teleportation device; some people haven’t even seen it yet and were amazed. SwimFellow, the counselor of science, almost hyperventilated, so Austkyzor handed him a paper bag just incase. He had seen this type of teleporter before and knew exactly how to use it. Lyserg did a quick facepalm; he didn’t even think that maybe SwimFellow knew how to use it. Swim flipped the switch on the back, and then proceeded to type in a super long and confusing code. Most people stood dumbfounded, but thankfully Lyserg understood most of it.
“Ok, it’s ready” Swim said confidently.
“Ok, where did you set me to appear?” Lyserg asks.
“Well if I got my longitudes and latitudes right, you should appear in Lincoln, Nebraska. But I could be wrong…” Swim added.
“Whatever, good enough for me.” Lyserg said. With his book in hand, he takes a few steps back and get ready to jump through.
“Wait! Take this with you, it’s a journal, write down what goes on down there, we need details.” RadicallyBlue says last second.
“Good Idea.” Lyserg says. He takes a couple more steps back, runs forward and jumps through.
Silence fills the air, nobody knows if it works or not.
“I guess we’ll see if it worked when he returns. Until then go back to your normal life on the moon.” Zang says.
Most of the settlers go back to building their buildings. Swim instead goes to the hospital to tell the others in the hospital under care, what just happened.
Shoop has a quick conversation with Zang, and then went running off with a compass and a map. Some others said that he is going to the NPOTM, not sure what for, but some say to make a new settlement.
Swift was on his game today. He finished the living quarters in no time at all. Everyone was amazed by his skill. With time to spare he went to the meeting hall and got everyone’s stuff and brought it into the living quarters.
Rogers, our new settler, come hobbling out of the hospital. A few go over to ask him if he’s ok. He says he is and gets led to the new living quarters to get some sleep for the next day.
After awhile everyone else gets tired and decides to do the same.
Day 6-
“Get up guys. I made everybody some tea.”
Tea was one of the things that everybody didn’t get much on the moon. Thankfully, Swift packed some teabags from Earth. Everyone got up pretty quickly and sat down at the table.
Everyone was talkative today. Probably because of the recent death of a crew member, everyone is trying to get it of their mind. Ferre death was called by a disease found recently by Austkyzor while autopsying Ferre’s body. It’s a form of moon cancer. Aust didn’t want anyone else to catch it, so he cremated Ferre. They are having a funeral for him today.
Rogers must be taking it the worst though. As soon as he heard about the funeral, he headed to the bar. He’s been kind of bad lately with all the illnesses. The death must have just pushed him too far.
Swim was busy today though. At the table he told everyone that he forgot to tell Lyserg that Dan could possibly be in California. He walkie talkied him and Lyserg is going to try to get a ride there. For some reason Zang need super large paper so Swim teleported some for him.
After breakfast tea time, everyone head outside to work on their buildings or do other things. Almost all the buildings are finished now. The settlement is actually starting to look like a town, instead of a big construction site. Some people noticed Aust’s posters about getting vaccinated and went to the hospital.
The biggest news came from Lightsider though. It turns out he was trying to examine a glowing rock, but then something happened and he black out. Later, Swim examined the rock and found out that it was an alien communication device and now he’s angered and entire alien race. Nobody is certain but they are expected an attack.
At the end of the day everyone attended Ferre’s funeral. Tony gave a touching speech about his days in the war with Ferre. Some other people said a few words, but everyone was expected Radical’s speech which he has been working on ever since he heard the bad news. Unfortunately, he forgot it in the living quarters, so he sat quietly in the corner.
After a long day, everyone headed back to the living quarters to hit the hay. They plan to expected dooms day.
