Quantum Vibe
A thousand years in the future, humanity has colonized worlds in nearly
100 galaxies, thanks to Quantum Vibremonic technologies developed five
centuries earlier. Other new technologies have created various
off-shoots of humanity and extended life expectancies five-fold. The
story begins with how a mad scientist and his plucky assistant, along
with their robot friend, brought humanity to the stars, and continues
with the adventures of some unique people in fantastic places.
Panel 1
The kids are on the opposite bank of the river. Warren is wringing out his socks. Winona is inspecting his ruck-sack.
Winona: Well, it’s a good thing I put most of the water bottles in your ruck-sack.
Warren: How far until we stop for the night?
Winona: About nine klicks.
Panel 2
The pair proceed past the trees on the other side of the river.
Winona: We should get to Juanita just after noon tomorrow.
Warren: Do your parents get worried when you go on long walks like this?
Winona: Yeah, but it’s worth it to get away from my sivata for a while.
Panel 3
Suddenly Warren grabs Winona by her arm and pulls her back towards the trees.
SFX (faint): EEEEEE
Warren: Watch out! Hide!
Winona: What --?
Panel 4
The kids peer up through the trees at Situ’s cruiser flying overhead.
Winona: That’s your father?
Warren: Yeah.
Warren: I know the whine of papá’s Cruiser in atmo.
Panel 5
They proceed onward, Winona glancing back in the direction of the Cruiser.
Winona: If he comes back when we’re out in the open, what do we do?
Warren: I dunno, run for cover, I guess.
Panel 6
Winona scowls at Warren
Winona: You really haven’t thought this through, have you?
Warren: It was kind of spur-of-the-moment. Mamá was taking a nap when I left.
