Chapter 19

The Rocket Failed Again

Absolutely!

Without a doubt!

December 12th was the day I

made history in my Country.

While I was seated in the Pilot control room, donned in my Astronaut suit, and about an hour later, as the rocket ascended, an unexpected event occurred that caused the rocket to reverse course and plummet back down.

What transpired?

As the rocket ascended, I kept observing the blue expanse of the Sky, and the rocket was having difficulty gaining altitude.

Then, I noticed a Black Sphere resembling a Black Moon rotating and moving across the Sky right before my eyes, and the blue Sky rippled as if someone had splashed water. “Rocket launches unsuccessful!” The alarm blared, and the rocket turned around and descended.

“Oh my God! We are truly not alone!” I exclaimed.

“And no one or anything can pass through,” I remarked upon witnessing what I had seen.

The reality is that the rocket hit its head on the way down after an unseen force obstructed it, preventing it from gaining the momentum needed to ascend further. However, I did catch a glimpse of the Black Moon and the shimmering effect resembling water against the backdrop of the blue Sky.

As the rocket descended, I fought to regain control.

Despite pressing every button, nothing responded.

“Oh my God! I am going down!” I exclaimed.

“I'm going down!”

“Please give me a chance!" I continued to plead.

Then, after nearly an hour, the rocket plunged straight into the sea at the Urban beach.

“Look everyone! It's coming back down!” Shouted one person on the beach. “What?” Another responded.

“The rocket is returning! Run!” The first person urged them again. “Everyone, stay calm! The rocket will land in the sea,” a Police Officer announced loudly.

As soon as I landed in the sea, I exited the rocket and noticed a large crowd of people watching me.

Naturally, there were various Journalists holding cameras and microphones as well. “What is happening?” I thought it was odd to see so many people gathered here as I swam to get out of the water.

Then, I spotted the Mayor, who came forward and instructed the Police to detain me.

“There he is!”

“The young man responsible for all this!” The Mayor exclaimed. “Officers! Apprehend him!” He commanded them.

Shortly after, as I was being placed into the Police car, I addressed the crowd, saying, “Please, read your Bible!”, “Remember the Scriptures from Genesis and Revelations!”

“Remember your Black Creator!”

“And take pride in your skin!” I added before getting into the Police vehicle.
