The final story of space.

 Part:02

The silence of space wrapped around the spacecraft like a heavy cloak as Team The Heroes drifted closer to their destination. Mars now appeared behind them—small, distant, almost forgotten. Ahead, the black hole pulsed like a living shadow, bending light into strange, glowing rings. Inside the cockpit, warning signals flickered softly across the panels.
“This… isn’t normal gravitational behavior,” Jihon said, his voice tight as he studied the readings.
Sella leaned forward, eyes wide. “It’s like it’s… watching us.”
John gripped the controls, trying to stay steady. “Stay focused. We didn’t come this far to turn back now.”

As they moved closer, time itself seemed to behave strangely. The ticking clock on the dashboard slowed… then sped up… then glitched entirely. A faint whisper echoed through the ship—not through the speakers, but directly into their minds.
“Did you… hear that?” Sella asked, her voice trembling.
Jihon nodded slowly. “It’s not sound… it’s something else.”
John clenched his jaw. “Record everything. Whatever this is, it’s trying to communicate.”
Outside the window, fragments of light twisted into shapes—almost like memories, like shadows of things that once existed.

Suddenly, the ship shook violently as a powerful force pulled them forward. Alarms blared loudly, breaking the eerie silence.
“We’re being dragged in!” Jihon shouted, struggling with the controls.
Sella held onto her seat, fear clear in her eyes. “John, what do we do?!”
For a moment, John said nothing—just stared into the endless darkness ahead. Then, with a steady voice, he spoke, “We keep going… this is what we came for.”

The spacecraft crossed an invisible boundary, and in that instant, everything went completely dark.
