A voice boomed over the speakers
"Please prepare for 'takeoff'. Commander Deacon, please enter confirmation date 4/5/39' a few seconds passed as the date appeared digit by digit on everyone's screen. Everyone was holding their breath. The candidates, everyone working at BMH, practically everyone on Earth while they watched, hunched before their respective screens. Soon, the ship named The Infinity would simply disappear. Not to be seen again for 100 years. Once it was sucked into 'the void' the candidates would be surrounded in nothingness, blackness. Once this was revealed to the public, there was a gigantic outcry. 15 young adults, spending 2 1/2 in nothing but a infinity symbol shaped ship? (toungetwister lmao 😹) They'll go crazy, insane nothing to do but wait? BMH didn't have time to assure everyone, they needed time to actually be able to go through with this. The voice boomed out of the speakers again. "Prepare for disappearance in 30 seconds." Every candidate took a deep breath and leaned their heads back. They were ready for the pain, oh they were ready. How many times they had done the simulation which had caused them so much pain, so many nightmares they couldn't count. It was time to say goodbye, for real. It was time to say goodbye to the world they knew. Hopefully it wouldn't be even more messed up. "5, 4, 3, 2, 1... have a safe trip candidates.." and with the only sound coming from the ship being the deafening screams of 15 young adults. Then silently, the ship disappeared out of sight, and out of the lives of the 7.5 billion people to who they had become famous.
