It was a hundred years ago that day, when a spaceship and a smaller one from a black hole went into orbit around earth. The scientist discovered on it that the two docked ships were carrying lifeforms. Yes, it seemed that these Norns, Ettins, and Grendals, marrooned on the ships found a new home. For also the humans were pleased, and set about breeding and creating Norn species, these sweet, advanced creatures, for a hundred years. and the proof, that there was or is intelligent life. the Ark and the Docking Station also left behind a lone Shee's diary, from wich then it became the litatrue of the century.

Jacob could not stop reading the Shee's journal. He knew that he should be on the bridge of the reconfigured Shee Ark, checking the Norns and figuring shippments and other things important for a captain. Besides him by the table slept Gracie,in her Norn bed, a Treehugger. She was tired after playing with Duncan the Bondi.
Jacob shut the journal and procedded to the bridge. The Shee Ark was configured for humans, and in the seasons served as a zoo with Norns and other in their habitats. only the rich could afford a couple, as they were a new commodity pet. the Ark was expanded, a new room every few months for a newly devolped species. Yesterday they got a shipment of the new Dream norns, who were cuter and fluffly. he passed the endless windowed doors of metarooms, filled with Norns, Ettins, and Grendals. the corridoor was quiet, as the ship was closed for Veteren's day.
He appeared on the ship's bridge, newly added. He sat down in the chair and waited for the briefing from Earth, which was on screen.
"Linda, any newsor disturbences? Holidays are always so quiet."
Linda was the Norn curator, who along with her Bondi was the only one on the bridge with him. Jacob was always attractid to her. and he felt the same with her.
"Well, most of the crew is relaxing. why not you? you seem tense." Linda came over to the comms. table, watching the holigrams of the evening news."you should rest up. tomorrow is another day, with 4 school trips. sigh.i think we need more vacations and the Norns are feeling it to. the Ettins seem to sense something else, but it is probobly nerves." Linda sat down, while Duncan the Bondi came up to me.
"Where is Gracie? Maybe play with toy?"
"Gracie is alsleep. you can go to her in my quarters."
"maybe me and Gracie can hide. maybe retreat."
"Duncan? what is wrong?" Linda said, watching him retreat and become scared. Then Jacob suddenly felt some disturbance. what was going on? then he saw on the screen a ripple in space. What? he rubbed his eyes and it was gone. he turned to Duncan who returned somewhat normal.
"Linda? what happened? I, I saw a ripple, out there, and a bad feeling."
"I dont know about a ripple in space, but i felt something. i better calm the rest of the Norns and report to Earth what happened." Linda shakingly got to her feet, and was talking on the ship wide radio to the staff.
Jacob sat, tryng to summerize what he was going to tell Earth. Was this wide spread? and what was the ripple?

Moved to the Writings forum, as it belongs there.

I really, really like what I'm seeing here. It reminds me of a story I've been working on, on and off, for the past half-decade or so. *facepalm for procrastination* There are a surprisingly few human-involved Creatures stories out there, so finding this was a pleasant surprise. A few silly questions:

What year does this take place? I'm guessing from the text it's around 2100, but I wasn't sure. And is Jacob the captain, or is he supposed to be doing things for the captain that he's putting off in favor of that oh-so-interesting Shee journal? :P

I'm looking forward to the next part.


You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there.

huh? i wouldn't know your story, so i couldn't have copied. sorry that it was a cowincidence.:( now for the next chapter.


Jacob started the transmission to Earth. on the screen appeared Commisioner of the Shee Ark Rehabilitator.
"Sir! we don't know what exactly happened, but somehow the creatures and the crew felt some sort of disturbance, and i saw, well, a ripple in space, to the direction of the the orbit where jupiter and Neptune is right now. what shall we do? our crew is stableizing the alien creatures right now."
"Captain, stay calm, cause the same feeling was on all the planets. the whole side of earth that you are over now, which is Europe, felt the disturbance the strongest. emergancy lines are jammed with the calls of distress as Earth, and the colonies on the 3 planet colonies have been disturbed. right now i can't give you answers. i have to deal with the panic. keep checking on the news beamings.out." the screen went blank.
Jacob turned to still see Linda processing calls to the 120 crew to stabilize the aliens. then the bridge members appeared.
"Captain." Henry, the ship driver, sat in the seat, processing damages,"sir, it appears that the ship wasn't damaged. shall i shut off the orange alarm?"
"Yes, you should. after the Creatures are calmed, we can look into the scientist's reasonings of what happened." Jacob got out of his seat and procedded to the science lab.
He passed the Ettin terriums, seeing staff members giving food and blankets to the frantic Ettins. in no time he was in the large lab, where all 4 scientists were stareing at the screen of several lab coated men.
"This disturbing phenominon," said one of the men on the screens,"was what we conjecter a physical fidgiting, a aftermath of a explosion in another diamension in time. our satilites detected a physical ripple in a portion of the galaxy, and the ripple has some how destroyed part of the astroid belt there." the scientists in the room watching paid no heed as i took a closer look.
"this phenominon has only been observed once before, in the GQ-J85 galaxy severl billion light years away, where it was recorded in the Lone Shee's journal, who left behind the first signs of intelligent life"Odd, Jacob thought, I have read that journal cover to cover! That part must have been ommitid from my copy!"The details of what the journal said,"the scientist on screen were fidgiting at the words."are not important. However it is concernd that the Ripples will continue for a week untill it will stop. all space trips will be cancelled till then.esspecially at the end of the week, when it will be procecuted severly."the screen blanked out.
"well, we are stuck. we just have to survive." Mcoy the head scientist said.
"Yes, we can detail it from here, as long as the Norns don't mutiny!Haha!" the other said, and they quickly went to the observation room.
Something is not right here. Why a ripple, then stop? And what was the banned part of the Shee's journal?

The ship was rocking every half anhour. day 6 of the space waves. the staff had plenty to do, as the Norns and others panicked as the shock waves vibrated their conciousness. Jacob spent his little free time calming down reading the Shee journal over and over again. he was gettin more troubled, as the scientists slipped that part of the journal was hidden from the public. Jacob was searching earnestly for the mising peice.
He was sure it had to do with the last journal entry, a bit of prose that looked like an old, old Shee might have written like:
"Into the stars i go, to a place i went once before, that i hope my friends my find again."
Clearly this was pertaning to an event, a planet, but what? he went to many, and some didn't seem significant enough to be, well, maybe die there. Jacob was sure that this was pertaining to the missing journal entry.
Jacob was desprate. the ships rocking was increaseing little by little, and he hoped he coulod find the missing entry in time to find out what would happen tomorrow.
It was dinner. he and Linda were the only ones in the mess hall, brooding over the shocks the ship and planets were experianceing. Jacob needed Lindas help if he was to gain acsess to the FBI Shee files.
"Um, Linda. As captain of this ship, it is, i belive, nescesary to find out what exactly the waves are. the scientists wont explain it."
Linda looked up."Jacob, i need to say this, i have been worried as much as you have about the safty of this ship. but i cant get the Berue that i am part of to release the imformation. They are hidding imformation i am to know about. This is outrageous!"Linda broke down. the stress was clearly effecting her.
"Linda, we can only be safe, if we hack. you are a important agent, more classified then me. I trust you with my life, and i hopethat you can keep and help with this secret."
"I can, Jacob. we need to know what the government is hiding."Linda scooted closer, reveling her ID card. Jacob looked at it.
"Thats it! you have the granted permission to go partway to the files! the answer is in the story, not the writtin classed imformation!Linda, our questions will be answered if we can acsess the hiddin entry."
"Let's do it."
