You are now: ZIXINUS, ETERNAL FREEDOM, IVAN IVANOV, WHITE CHINESE DELIVERY GUY, BITCHING BETTY, ROBOTIC PROBE and PHANT
You are on a SPACEPLANE. The SPACEPLANE is FLYING really FAST. It is PILOTED by ETERNAL FREEDOM and ZIXINUS. It is rather CRAMPED. The CONTROLS are CONFIGURED in METRIC UNITS. There is no SCRAM FUEL. There is 40% of MAIN ENGINE FUEL. There is plenty of HYDRAZINE for the APU. There is a HOMICIDAL ROBOTIC PROBE in the ARILOCK. The SYSTEMS COOLANT is no longer GETTING ay HOTTER. The AIR inside the CABIN is.
There is a DISTURBANCE in the FORCE. ETERNAL FREEDOM suddenly REALIZES you are NOT a mere THREE ORBITS away from your DESTINATION, because the EARTH ROTATES the OTHER WAY. You DUMBASS.
You have NO IDEA where that CAME FROM.
You are SIXTEEN ORBITS from your REENTRY WINDOW, which TRANSLATES to roughly 20 HOURS. You CERTAINLY won't be ABLE to ENTER the RUSSIAN SPACE DEFENCE PERIMETER with a MERE twenty second BURN.
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Coolant temperature!
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Atmosphere leak!
ETERNAL FREEDOM cannot RUMINATE on this SUDDEN ENLIGHTEMENT because he is being SPACE WRESTLED by ZIXINUS, who had SOMEHOW managed to DETACH ETERNAL FREEDOM'S STRAP ON.
Err I MEAN his SEAT BELTS.
ZIXINUS and ETERNAL FREEDOm FLY through the BARF CLOUD. It is VERY NASTY. The BARF DISPERSES into small DROPLETS which CLING to EVERYONE in the CABIN.
ETERNAL FREEDOM manages to HEADBUTT ZIXINUS. They BOTH begin to ROTATE QUICKLY due to that MOTHERFUCKER ISAAC NEWTON. The BASTARD.
ZIXINUS is SNAPPED to ATTENTION when he SLAMS into the WALL. It is VERY PAINFUL. He REALIZES what BITCHING BETTY is SAYING.
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Coolant temperature!
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Atmosphere leak!
ZIXINUS helpfully POINTS OUT there is a ROBOT which is TRYING to KILL YOU. Suddenly the AIRLOCK begins to CYCLE. ZIXINUS seems to be getting SANER.
IVAN IVANOV is THREATENING some PEOPLE DOWNSTAIRS with HORRIBLE DEATH. He is ABLE to SECURE a LANDING PERMISSION at an AIRBASE near MOSCOW. He ATTEMPTS to COOL the SPACEPLANE, but that FUCKER NEWTON intervenes AGAIN with his LAWS of THERMODYNAMICS.
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Coolant temperature!
BITCHING BETTY Says: Warning! Atmosphere leak!
BITCHING BETTY Says: Airlock pressurizing.
WHITE CHINESE DELIVERY GUY Mutters: There is no spoon.

You are now: RI'ANN SHAPP, FILIPINO JANITOR, SUAVE PLAYBOY and LARGE IRRITABLE DOG.
You are on an UNAPPROVED SPACEPLANE. The UNAPPROVED SPACEPLANE is FREE of its ROCKET BOOSTER. The UNAPPROVED SPACEPLANE is VERY CRAMPED. It is DEPRESSURIZING. You are STRAPPED into your SEATS. The CONTROLS are in DANGER of being IRREPAIRABLY DAMAGED. There is a SMELL of POOP. It is no longer FAINT. The is a LOT of VOMIT and POOP in the AIR. It is SPLASHING all OVER the INSTRUMENTS and HELMETS. There are two PEOPLE in the PAYLOAD BAY. They are FIGHTING.
The SUAVE PLAYBOY had been STRUCK with a TURD. It has DISABLED his SHOTGUN. He is under ATTACK by an INSANE FILIPINO wielding a FOLDING AXE.
SUAVE PLAYBOY manages to JAB the INSANE FILIPINO with his MULTITOOL. It cracks the INSANE FILIPINO'S HELMET. The CRACK begins to VENTILLATE and DRAGS a FLOATING TURD towards it, making it IMPOSSIBLE to SEE. INSANE FILIPINO flies BACKWARDS because of FUCKER NEWTON.
The SUAVE PLAYBOY FLIES backwards as well THANKS to that FUCKER NEWTON, but GRABS a SPACEWINDER. SUAVE PLAYBOY manages to OPEN a SPACEWINDER but finds no WAY to INITIATE the MISSILE. He LOOKS with TREPIDATION as the INSANE FILIPINO WHACKS the MISSILE with the AXE. The MISSILE begins to VENT its HYPERGOLIC PROPELLANT. It LOOKS like it is ABOUT to IGNITE.
