''This is so wicked'' Oni cried. The Ibis was orbiting the station that Sara had just blasted the ship out of. ''Would you like to take the controls for a minute or so?'' Sara asked. ''Whoa!, you'd let me fly the whole ship? On my own?'' Oni said, a look of shock on his face.
''You can't tell mum or anyone else though, promise me?'' Sara was more concerned that Oni would go blabbing to Gregor rather than his mother about how cool it was. ''I promise, i won't tell anyone, sis'' Oni reasurred her.
Oni took the controls excitedly. Sara moved out of the seat and fiddled with some controls near the hatch. ''Can i fly to that moon please, Sis?'' Oni wondered as he pointed to a small black blob many a.u away. ''No, sorry little brother but we need to remain at the station''. Sara smiled. As eager as her brother was, she knew she would get removed from the academy if she allowed him to even touch the warp drive.
''Awwww'' Oni sighed. The ship itself was following a flight planned autopilot, so Oni wasn't actually controlling anything, he didn't realise this though, so both children were happy.
''Right then, time to go back before everyone wakes up''. Sara was eager to return and Oni realised at that moment that they weren't meant to be doing this. ''Thanks sis, i hope you dont get into trouble''. Oni looked a little guilty. ''Hahah, dont fret it little brother, i decided to bring you out here, the training is very boring, so you'll only have this to look back on''. Sara grinned, she obviously didnt mind whether or not she got into trouble.
The ship slowly eased into the docking tube and through the Oxygen Sheild. Sara skillfully moored her Ibis back into the original place and opened the hatch. ''Come on little brother, lets get back to our rooms'' Sara advised. The two headed for the hanger exit, when it suddenly opened, a large man was standing at it. ''Gregor'' Sara sighed.
Kari stood outside the office waiting for the meeting to end. ''Oh come on'' she thought to herself. The meeting between the children and Gregor had been going on for nearly an hour. ''Now, you two are dismissed, i'm very disapointed in you Sara''. Gregor raised his voice a little, then the door opened and two very sad faces came out. ''Hi mum'' the two said with a guilty accent. ''Now you know not to do this ever again, right?'' Kari made sure they knew she wasn't happy with them. ''I mean for god sake you put your whole career on the line, both of you, for thirty minutes of fun? Don't get me wrong, i'm proud of both of you but you've let me and the Academy down''. Kari calmed herself down and walked away. Two very quiet children close behind her.
They weren't given a punishment, just a warning and so they both remained in the Academy. Kari was going back home today and so didn't want to leave on a sour note. ''Now kids, you know i love you both equally, but you can't do things like this or you will get punishments next time''. ''We're both really sorry, i just wanted to take Oni for a flight to calm him down, he was really nervous about his trials''. Sara fibbed. ''Yea, i was, i feel much better now though mummy''. Oni went along with his sisters story.
The family hugged and even though Kari knew there was some lie to the story, she didn't mind. ''Well, lets forget it, just dont do anything like this again''. Kari smiled at her two children. The three talked for some time before Kari left for her shuttle home.
''I'll see you both soon, when i come to visit and don't forget to write to me, i love you kids''. Kari's voice was silenced by a loud tanoi. They all waved to each other as Kari's Taxi arrived at the Academy, Gregor had ordered her one as it was mid-day and the Station was always it's busiest at lunch. ''I'll take good care of your kids, don't you worry''. Gregor shouted reasurringly. ''You better''. Kari joked. And then she was gone.
''Come on then, you two. You've both got a long day ahead of you.'' Gregor stated. Oni knew his first trial was today. ''What time is my trial at, Gregor?'' Oni asked politely. ''It'll be at 1300 hours, sharp'' Gregor seemed a little less lenient than before Oni was first accepted into the Academy. ''Sara, go to the lounge and tell the recruits to prepare for combat training at 1600 hours.'' Gregor ordered. ''Yes, sir.'' Sara seemed to be happy to get away from Gregor and would've done anything, even gone and check-listed the Arms department.
''Oni, you go to your room and unpack and put on the Academy uniform provided in your wardrobe.'' Gregor glanced at Oni. ''Yes, Gregor''. Gregor looked sharply at him. ''S-sorry, sir''. Oni walked as fast as possible to his room. ''No running'' he heard Gregor shout after him. ''Whoa, and i thought he was cool''. Oni thought to himself as he made his way to his sleeping quarters.
