Water of Life
It was the day we finally arrived at Pluto. "Split up and probe, and report back in six hours. " I said to X and A beside me. We put on the helmets on the space suits, the helmets, and the hatch, faint "ding" sound, the helmets and the hatch impact, now a little spark. However, we did not notice. Checked the suits and walked out of the hatch. These suits are a little different - the oxygen tanks on the back of them are adsorption type, no need for cumbersome installation, just suck up and use the oxygen. There is weightlessness in space, and walking is usually light and airy. However, our feet are extra heavy - our body, carrying the fate of all mankind.

Unstoppable...
It was the rocking motion and the sound of a loud horn which woke me up with a jolt. I checked the watch on my wrist... it was just coming up on 11:11 am. I remembered reading something in a woman's magazine while waiting in the Dentist office to have my teeth cleaned, something about how 11:11 brings unparalleled awareness in ones place in the universe. Wait, one cotton pic-ken minute! What in the devil was I doing reading a woman's magazine? That's not something I would ever do, or would I? Hey, where the devil am I anyway? What's going on? "Who are you? Why are you staring at me with that ridiculous look on your face?" "I'm Henry, sir. I need your ticket for the train fair. You were sleeping, sir. I didn't want to wake you. I've been waiting for you to wake up, so I can collect your ticket, sir. May I have it? It's my job to collect all the tickets." "Yeah, just give me a minute. Let me see what I did with it." After checking all the possible pockets and finding them all empty. I realized I didn't have my wallet nor did I have a ticket.

I am a street light
When I woke up, I sneezed and was ready to get up. At that moment, however, I found myself unable to move and was so anxious that I wanted to call my mother, but I couldn't make a sound ...... what was going on? I hastily opened my eyes and found myself standing straight by the road, with this coming and going of pedestrians in front of me, next to neatly trimmed flowers and plants ...... Huh, how come I am here? When I looked down, I was surprised to find my body was a long, thin, long iron rod, also plated with a layer of black paint, with a light bulb overhead. Oh! I came to my senses, so I turned into a street lamp. I struggled in a panic, but in vain, I had to comfort myself: perhaps this is the arrangement of God so that I can experience the feeling of being a street lamp.
