STARDUST ASCENSION

“You’re not actually going to do this, are you?” The skeptical voice of Dr. Castellanos echoed through the control room, as she watched the live feed of the unprecedented mission.
“I’m just saying what everyone’s thinking, Doc,” one of the techs replied, his fingers dancing over his keyboard with practiced ease.
The room buzzed with anticipation as the final countdown played out on the screens. The lead astronaut, Alex, was in the cockpit of the spacecraft, his heart racing in a way that his training couldn’t quite prepare him for. He had studied every possible scenario, but nothing quite like this had ever been attempted. The entire mission was a gamble, and everyone knew it.
On the other side of the spacecraft, separated by a wall of gleaming metal, was the winged astronaut, Elara. Her feathers, a stark white against the black of space, ruffled slightly with the vibrations of the engines warming up.
She had been the subject of fascination since the moment she was discovered, a creature seemingly born for the stars. Now, she was about to prove if she truly was.
The countdown reached zero, and the engines roared to life. The spacecraft trembled and began to ascend, leaving a trail of fire and smoke in its wake. The control room staff held their collective breath as the ship broke through the atmosphere, the pressure increasing and the noise outside growing distant.
Alex felt the weightlessness set in, his body floating slightly in his chair. He looked over at Elara, her wings folded neatly behind her. She was a creature of unparalleled grace, even in the confines of the spacecraft.
As the ship reached orbit, the hatch between them opened, and the two astronauts looked at each other for a brief moment. Alex gave her a nod, and she returned it with a fierce determination in her eyes.
The mission had begun.

Ruth’s 2nd Story:

COSMIC
RIDDLE
✍🏻
Ruth sat in the cramped cockpit. Her gloved hands gripped the control panel.
The view outside was surreal—a canvas of stars punctuated by the red glow of distant Mars. She’d dreamt of Mars for years, but now that she was here, the weight of responsibility pressed on her.
The mission had begun, but Ruth felt like she stood on the precipice of eternity.
Mars loomed before her - an enigmatic world with secrets buried beneath its crimson sand. She adjusted her white spacesuit, its fabric whispered promises of discovery.
“Michael,” Ruth whispered into my headset, “Do you see this?” His voice crackled back, “Ruth, it feels like we’re on a comet. Elara’s wings are shimmering. She’s extremely beautiful.”
Elara, the enigmatic winged astronaut, floated beside Ruth. “What do you think, Elara?” Ruth asked, “Are we the only ones here?” Elara’s wings flapped, her voice echoed in my mind. “Not alone. Never alone.”
Frowning, Ruth pointed to the small Egyptian statues scattered across the Martian surface. “These are echoes,” Elara explained. “Whispers from a forgotten age. The builders of the pyramids reached the stars, just like us.” Elara’s wings caught the faint Martian light. “Ruth,” her voice echoed, “we are the bridge between worlds, where the ancient and the cosmic meet here.”
Michael, an astronaut in an orange suit, sat transfixed by the small Egyptian statues. “What do you think these statues represent?” Ruth asked him. His eyes widened, scratching his helmet. “Maybe they’re messengers,” He mused, “Or guardians. Sentinels are watching over the pyramids.”
Alex, the cool-headed white astronaut joined them. “These pyramids are more than structures,” he said. “They are conduits. Portals to other worlds.”
“But why build pyramids on Mars?” Ruth wondered aloud.
“Because Mars is a cosmic crossroads,” Elara replied. “The Sphinx guards knowledge that awaits us.”
Michael grinned, “We’re explorers, Ruth. We’re here to solve mysteries. Decipher the symbols and find the missing pieces.”
When Elara, Michael, Ruth and Alex descended towards the Martian surface, the hatch opened, and red dust swirled around us. Elara stepped onto the alien soil, her wings spread wide.
Approaching the largest pyramid, Ruth whispered, “Elara, what’s the cosmic riddle?”
Elara scanned the horizon. “The puzzle is: Are we the first or last? The pyramid marks the beginning and end.”
Michael knelt next to a weathered statue. “What if we were part of a cycle? What if Mars was once like Earth?”
Elara nodded. “Perhaps. But for now, we’re here to awaken dormant magic—the stardust in our veins.”
Alex chimed in. “Previous astronauts have left their marks. We intend to leave ours too.”
Ruth deciphered hieroglyphics on the pyramid’s base—star maps, constellations across time. Ruth traced the curves with her gloved fingers, searching for patterns.
Michael pointed to the Sphinx. “What if Mars once flourished with life?”
Ruth’s heart thumped. “Elara,” She asked, “what’s behind the Sphinx?”
Elara’s wings unfurled. “The answer,” she said, “is woven into the fabric of the universe. We are stardust, Ruth. We are the cosmic riddle.”
And so, the cosmic riddle awaited them—an ancient code etched in Martian stone, challenging curious souls to unravel its secrets.
