Jack: How the hell you have that kind of vehicle? There's nothing like that, and I haven't seen such a weird transportation until now.
Mayor Roberts: Jack it's more than a super-sonic jet. It's a spaceship and a time machine combined.
"AMAZING!!!!! and you want me to fly that machine? Super awesome! I just couldn't believe this." Cracker Jack still in wishful thinking how he could fly it. He's got no idea.
"So, when you want me to go?" Jack asked the mayor.
"RIGHT NOW!" the mayor insisted.
Jack: What? You mean to say, but I haven't seen my parents yet nor able to consult them about this.
Mayor: No need. There is no time. I will inform your parents about your mission later on. GOOD LUCK & BON VOYAGE! Don't come back here until you have the GOLDEN IVORY.
Jack: Yes sir! (Jack bid goodbye and glanced at Lady Arabella for the last time).
Lady Arabella: Wait........Can I go with them Father?
Mayor: NO! Their mission is dangerous. It's an expedition designed for men.
Lady Arabella: But Father -- I also have the expertise in martial arts. I can do better than them.
Mayor: I'm sorry my child you cannot go with them. Okay Jack you and your men can go now. GO! You must go right away TIME IS THE ESSENCE.
Lady Arabella: That is so unfair! (Arabella left them with tears in her eyes. She wants to go and fly the space ship instead of Jack and the ten men).
Jack proceeds to the metal bridge and met the ten chosen men who are already fastened their seat belts in their seats. Equipped with the modern gadgets that they will need through out the flight.
With much enthusiasm although pre-occupied mind-thinking, Cracker Jack was overjoyed about this absolute new experience of being away from home. The kind of adventure he really wants to experience no matter how goofy it is.
The giant watermelon shaped machine starts to move like disco strobe lights, sparks and glows in the dark. Cracker jack made sure all the tools, devices, equipment and the computer inside the space ship works according to its plan. Terence - the pilot operator has more knowledge of the flight test, helped assist Jack in all the testing and trouble-shooting. Testing the control switch and its entire sytem, including the hydraulics. All technical!
"ALL is well. Ready for take off, " Terence announced to everyone, aboard the spaceship.
Loud noise can be heard. The counting starts 10, 9, 8, 7, 6,5
4, 3, 2, 1 ----------^UP
Cracker Jack and his men were nervous and worried about this adventure. Who wont be?
While the spaceship is moving upward in almost like a speeding bullet, no one from the crew was heard saying a word.
All of them were so calm and quiet.
All they can hear are the loud noise outside the vehicle. It feels like they were inside a cubicle and they were shaking inside. The situation in a confined compartment as if an earthquake tried to shake their bodies and vehicle altogether.
Moment of awe and grandeur. Moment of melancholia and moments of extra out of body experience happened to each one of them. An extra ordinary experience that they will never ever forget.
The spaceship circled around the cave after the lift up, then move upward to its destination. Outside the cave is filled with water. It turned out they were at the bottom of the ocean. The space ship moved like a super-sonic rocket more than what it supposed to do. Remember it is also a time machine.
Some of Cracker Jack's crew threw up after layer after layers of atmosphere their spaceship is taking them into. Several of them got dizzy and one fainted. In matter of less than an hour they reached stratosphere. In this 2nd layer of the Earth's atmosphere, strong winds almost swept the spaceship because of the gravitational force of the super jet stream. Stronger than normal. From the window they can see clearly the icy cold moisture then these moisture vanished because of the airy dry part of the sphere.
Above the stratosphere is the next layer which is the mesosphere. From the wide screen monitor of their ship it shows they are above the ozone layer. In this part the air is thinner. The temperature is getting cold . Imagine it's negative 78 degrees centigrade.
On this part of the sphere, Jack and his brave courageous men had seen a passing UFO. They were astonished only to be reminded by the machine in their spaceship that it was a passing experimental balloon.
William the astronomer was quick to point out what will happen next and they have to be better prepared for this extra ordinary flight.
William: The next sphere is the thermosphere which is 250 miles from earth. On this layer there'll be some kind of unexplained occurence and ---
Before he could finished his statement there's BLACK OUT!
TOTAL DARKNESS!! They can't see anything. Their spaceship bounced back and forth. They cannot even hear anything only the sound of their breathing. They all grasping for air.
"Oxygen, we need oxygen..... Cracker jack blurted out.
"Flashlight! We need a flashlight," one of them is heard asking for flashlight.
"Where is it?" Damn if you don't have it.
Their spaceship is still moving. They all started to panic. getting nervous, worried and screaming. They cannot see any light at all. Absence of light. Nothing to see.
Cracker Jack heard one of the guys saying his solemn prayers. Everyone started praying.
Miraculously the lights are back.
Terence: Thank God! (He checked the main control switch and everything seemed alright)
What happened at the Thermosphere? There were too many electrical activities and radiation were too much for the space ship to endure. So glad to have passed the meteor trails.
Terence checked the monitor screen. Stated they are now travelling through the Ionosphere. From there they received a message communication from mayor Roberts.
Mayor: CONGRATULATIONS! You have just passed the extra paranormal turbulence.
