CHAPTER 10

Jack crossed his fingers as he followed his mom back into the emergency shelter. The main door leading to the stairs down looked about as inviting as the mouth of a deep, dark cave, and the air tasted stale.

We need to get the power back. This is all that we have left.

Rebecca stopped short in the middle of the stairs, and Jack crashed into her from behind. Only a quick reaction on his part saved her from falling forward, instead pulling her up to where he was and against him. His mom was soft, and it was hard to ignore how much his hands enjoyed touching her.

“Sorry,” said Rebecca. “I thought I heard-“

A switch clicked from somewhere within the wall, and the lights flickered back to life. Jack breathed a sigh of relief.

“Thank god,” he said. “The earthquake must have just done something to the batteries.”

His mom nodded and then turned her attention down to the main room.

“Well, it looks like we still have our work cut out for us.”

All of their supplies had been scattered about the floor by the shaking. Jack had seen the aftermath of tornados that were less chaotic. Everything was mixed together, all of their clothes, survival supplies, dried food, canned food, bottles of water, and even some of his mom’s panties.

“At least we’ll know where everything is after this,” said Jack. “There is one thing we should do before we get started, though.”

He walked over to the wall-mounted monitor and touched the face of it.

Let’s hope the earthquake didn’t break this, either.

He turned it on and tapped through the menus until he found Molly’s connection address. After double clicking it, a message appeared on the screen in big, green, capital letters.

CONNECTION PENDING

After a couple of seconds, the screen changed to the familiar view of the inside of the space station, and Molly. Her face froze in an expression of confusion, and tears were streaming down her face.

“Jack?” she whispered. “I… I thought that… I thought you were…”

“I’m okay, and so is my mom,” he said. “Sorry about that. The earthquake turned our power off for a little while.”

Molly let out an emotional laugh and wiped her face. Rebecca walked over to join the conversation, putting an arm around Jack’s waist.

“I was so sure that the two of you were dead.” She shook her head. “I saw the earthquake from up here. Like, I could actually see some of the damage it was doing. It was one of the worst ones yet.”

“We had to go outside, to set up new solar panels,” said Rebecca. “It’s pretty barren out there. Molly, is there anywhere left in the world that’s still habitable?”

Molly frowned.

“The ash storms have cleared up,” she said. “It’s made it easier to see from orbit. Here, take a look.”

She tapped on the keyboard under her webcam, and Jack and Rebecca’s view shifted.

Earth looked different from how it had before, right after the asteroid strike. The sky had calmed down and it was easy to make out the planet’s distinctive features, and how massively the impact had changed them.
