‘Wait! I cried.’


Darkness…


Noise….


Silence….


Floating…..


Light….



Ash looked at me with an amused look ‘I said strap in.’ She pulled me from the floating junk I was wedged in.

‘It take’s time to get used to zeroG, it’s disorientating, if its difficult try these’ she indicated to her boots the words Vacboot on them.

‘No, I’m fine.’ I nonchalantly replied bobbing upside-down, with an evil look. ‘I screamed that I couldn’t find the button to strap myself in.

‘No harm done.’ My stare burned. She walked to her seat laughing, a sucking sound from each lifted foot.

Women!

On the run...

Jochen screamed in agony. His stomach felt like imploding, and the rocking beneath the Viper’s fire was helping none. He steered right whilst gripping his abdomen, panting desperately.

“Surrender or die!” barked the police. The latter seemed tempting right now. But he’d survived this long, and his hyperdrive was near charged.

Pain lanced his stomach again - punishment for his desperate existence. What a mistake that stolen meal had been!

The drive charged and Jochen zapped away. Safety! But the relief betrayed him and liquid gushed out through the cockpit.

He cried. There’s nothing worse than diarrhoea in zero G.

Keep your eye's on the road

Warpin* into the core systems is always a relief.. no more watchin* your backside, relax and concentrate on dockin* safely..

'What happens when the station stops rotatin*? Do people just float about?
Is there any event of this nature in history' he thou*ht to himself.
'what if it spins too fast?? Do people end up stuck to the floor?'
He had built up quite a brain storm now...
'If it suddenly stopped spinnin*, would people be thrown into the air and stick?'
'when it starts a*ain, would people splat into the walls?

Suddenly Lave station received a new scorch mark.

The level of bowel related drabbles on here is quite worrying.

Funny though :D

Just reminded me of a Kenny Everett sketch YT LINK it's the last one :D

Art and Death in Zero-G

Flashes of brilliant orange and blood-red fire; alloys and polymer spinning away into a wild vacuum.

It’s beautiful, really. That last hit was an artist. Fluid in its bright confusion, it delivered an impressionist’s dream.

Inside our broken hull it’s no less bewitching: my blood orbits, the droplets coalescing. Pink shards of bone float before my glazing eyes.

I can’t reach anything. I peel off a charred boot and throw it with all my faltering strength, hoping for some thrust to send me back to a bulkhead.

It doesn’t work. I just spin gently.

At least the view is pleasing.

Ah, just saw yours! Very good :) I had mine written before I announced the theme actually (is that cheating?) But when I said "Zero G" I fully expected it to reduce to toilet humour :)

Not cheating. It's the perk of winning the previous Drabble. I got mine in quick though, because I've had that problem before about making a Drabble that was too similar to someone else's.

Death of a playboy

The Hugh Hefner lounge was enormous. With a Cuban clamped between his teeth, Commander Otto sped through vacuum, close on the heels of Cleo the caramel colored pleasure droid. Cleo spun in the air like a cat,drove her long legs against the Moroccan love seat screwed to the floor, and shot towards the ceiling shrieking with laughter. Snatching vainly at the droids gold laminated bikini bottoms, Otto bounced of the signed portrait of Jackie Collins on the far wall and flew skyward. Slobbering at Cleo's magnificent bosom, Otto never saw the enormous air conditioning fan in the ceiling.

Loving the way these drabbles end with an unexpected dribble for the poor commanders.

Zero-G: Inertia rules

Flame shoots from all corners of the ship as it skids past it's partner in their dance of death.

An upside down flip then the ship twists gracefully as lasers flash against a background of stars, counterpoint to the thruster’s flame.

Flash and thrust, rotate on an axis, accelerate, bow to each other as they pass, then spiral away only to return, each seeking to deliver one final kiss.

A pirouette and more flame as a missile joins the dance for an instant, before a flaring ball swiftly fades. Kinetic fragments chop into the dance partner. Inertia rules in zero-G.

Water

The investigators noted that the victim's face was wet and there was a small puddle on the floor of the ship. The autopsy revealed that the victim had drowned and that he had taken sleeping pills.

John sighed “I don't get it boss, how can someone drown on a spaceship?”

Harry explained “ You forget that ships spend a lot of time at zero-g. Water stays in big globules, if you get one of those over your face and you don't push it away, you will drown. He was unconscious so couldn't save himself. Looks like we have a murder”.
