Sara and Bob make their amazing arrival...

It was a dark night in Space, but Sara knew it always was. Her
comrades (and inferiors as she referred to them) were Craig, Dori,
and Colin. There was also a crazy Skutter called Bob.
One night, Sara was sat on her bunk, scanning the blueprints of what
the Gemini 6 could look like if it was upgraded, when her ship's
computer appeared where her mirror was. "Sara, I hate to interrupt,
but we have a teeny little problem..." Sara rolled her eyes.
These "teeny little problems" could be anything. Bad laundry, major
alerts, ship attack, anything. "There's a strange planet on the long-
range scan. Five minutes until impact." Her blood ran cold. She
jumped down from her bunk and ran into the drive room, where she
slipped into her station and frantically tapped at the Navi-Com.
Craig turned to look at her. "What took you so long?" he asked
innocently. Sara glared at him.
"YOU try running into the Drive Room when you're inspecting
blueprints!" She returned her gaze to the screen and tapped at it
impatiently.
"The Navi-Com says it's a Psy-Moon... Seems to be the same one which
that Starbug crashed on... I see a damaged vessel down there..." She
bit her lip. "There seems to be a life form lurking on the
planetoid..."
"One minutem until impact.." her computer announced.
"There's no way to avoid it. Brace yourselves," Dori shrieked.
Thirty seconds later, they had crashed into the Psy-Moon.
Thirty minutes later, the Despair Squid had inked them all. Only Bob
the Skutter was unaffected. Feeling a pang of skutter-passion, he
rushed to save Sara from a depressing demise. He managed to shove her
and himself into the escape pod, where they were sent to the Blue
Dwarf...
