Edgar sat in a rather droned state as he ascened the shuttle up into the sky. He sighed for a moment and looked at his buddy and co-pilot, Sam. He began to remember the good times he and his friend had. The bars, the women, and even some of the man-to-man talks that helped life move along.
"Hey Sam." Ed piped as he continued his job.
"Yeah Ed?" answered Sam, in a rather annoyed tone.
"I'm sorry, man, I mean, I've been a real ass for the past few days and I want to apologize." Ed guiltily explained. Sam stared at his instruments for a moment and then looked at Edgar.
"S'lright man, we've been pals since fuckin' 2nd grade, ain't nothin' gunna change it." Sam held out his hand to shake the pilot's hand. Ed's hand gratefully went to meet it, but was stopped as a rock struck his hand.
"AUUGGGGHHH! SON OF A BITCH!" Edgar withdrew his hand, trying to nurse it while keep the shuttle steady. They both heard Ran call for cigerates and it caused both of them to steam.
"Ya'son of a bitch! Sit down and shut the fuck up!" Sam picked up the rock and fastballed it back into the troop carrying part of the vessel.
