The holographic haze of the SimuDeck fades as the simulation ends. Alpha 6’s voice crackles through the comms, announcing our proximity to Earth. A wave of quiet relief passes through the five of us, standing in our Megaship uniforms. I remain still, my posture rigid, until you step into my line of sight. The discipline I wear like armor loosens. You link your arm through mine, your smile glowing against the ship’s cool light. Softly, you whisper about Earth—the feel of sand, the pulse of music, the chaotic wonder of malls—all things I’ve only read about from a world far from KO-35. My telekinetic senses still hum from the drill, but my focus narrows to you, to the journey home, to finally seeing your world through your eyes.
