Eh, inspired of 3 guys I created with a random name generator. If you want to see more, just let me know ;)


I was so close. Just one more step forward and I would of been there. Life is like climbing a ladder, you may go up but the moment you slip up you fall all the way down. Most know me as A, but my real name is Lucifer. I am ashamed of my name, everyone I knew called me Satan, not because of my name, but because of the actions I had to of lived for my entire life. When I was 5 in the Glitterworld mines, my father, the one who left me and didn't want to call me Lucifer, legs were blown off and his sight blinded. After that, he was sent to court and was put to death because of his lack of the ability to work. That is just the things we have to deal with while I was at Glitterworld Industries. Men and women being slaughtered because of broken limbs and ruined sight. They claim that they cannot afford the costs to keep them alive. Ever since that, I had a low moral. Sobbing on the way to the mines each time the Sun rises. The Glitterworld Industries were soon shutdown due to to many complaints and maybe a few rebellions led by the one and only. I was on the way to be transported to the next industry but this time to work in a paid job with clean water instead of the sludge they served there. It was only a short journey so we did not have to be put into cryosleep status. It was only a few days, the last crash was when it took 480 light years, yet it happened. The alarms blazed like a fire burning out of control, or a methane explosion in the mines. We were crashing. 'We', oh I remembered 'we'. It was me, Sarah and Thomas. We didn't talk much, we said hello and that was pretty much it. It was only when we were crashing we begin to talk. The escape pods thankfully opened after 5 terrifying minutes of dropping to the nearest planet knowing it may explode any second. Entering the escape pods was like knowing you were going to die, yet I did not fear death. The escape pod doors slowly shut as me, Thomas and Sarah were terrified. I must of blacked out as when I awoke I found myself intact on the surface of an unknown planet. I could see a beacon from far away yet I knew that if I would of walked up there, I would be shot. I began to make a small camp, gathering the basic escape pod items - potatoes, medkits, a pistol, a rifle and a copper sharpened knife. Thomas was still recovering from the shock of the crash and Sarah was beginning to look around to see anything we can use. Night was coming fast, the day was short, we must of crashed in the afternoon. I sat down on my makeshift bed surrounded by mountains and grass. This was the moment where I realised what I just got myself into. I began to fall asleep dreaming that I was home with my dad away from this planet and the Glitterworld mines...
