Forget Pong


(Try Star Trek)


Klon took a job flying a jet powered cargo plane. His job was to monitor the controls after putting in the flight plan , so it was a boring job. While he was at the controls he tried playing a simple Star Trek game in which the ships and grids were ascii type characters. So one day when Klon had just left the planet and started this game he noticed too many x's , and the controls were stuck. He sat there looking at it for awhile and the thought of a more realistic version haunted him and then sounds came on like a Klingon ship. The sounds ended when his own face appeared on the screen. With no more x's and no more game he decided to check in the back to see if anyone could help. Opening a door he noticed a strange gas and thought he would be alright without a gas mask. Opening another door he saw some people standing with gas masks on and some people slumped over. He looked to see if the ones slumped over had masks on and when he saw they didn't it confirmed his thought of a hostile boarding party and him without a mask. That was the last thing he remembered.
