First Contact: 26 May 2009
Hey, my name is Daren and I'm a member of the Lost Boys. We call ourselves the Lost Boys because one time Dee found this book and told us about it. Some times we tease her and call her Wendy, but we are sort of like those boys in that book.
Except that Peter, our Peter, tells us to grow up out here. "On the edge of civilization no one cares whether eight kids go missing or not." Pete says a lot of things like that. He's the oldest and takes care of us.
Dee is the second oldest and the first smartest . She knows how to read and teaches the littleuns.
After Dee there are three of us that don't come in order because we're not sure who's oldest.
There's Bill who is big but short. He gets angry a lot, but we still like him.
Then there's Sam who is as tall as me but quieter 'cause he's always thinking.
Then there's me. I build stuff. It was me who built our flashlights from broken ones and who made Pete's rockgun to replace his slingshot.
There are three littleuns. They are all scared of everything. Jimmy is the loudest and most excited. Lee is smaller than the other littleuns, but it doesn't matter cause he's also the bravest. The last littleun is 'Snatch.' His name is Sam, but we already had a Sam, and he always grabs things so he's Snatch.
The last person I have to tell you about is Old Tom, who we call 'Captain Hook.' We call him that because he used to be a ship captain.
Back then he had four ships, and they were going to promote him to Admiral when he got captured by the Gags. They did all sorts of torture to him until he went crazy and blew up his ships through his link. Then they left him to die.
The Gags took his hands so that's why we call him Captain Hook. He's really nice even though he's crazy. He shares his food with all eight of us.
What? You've never heard of Gags or links. Why didn't you say so? Gosh, you must've been confused.
Gags are the name of these Aliens, Gagazokinoiders* or something. We're at war with them. Dee says that its because of mutual animosity and colonial nationalism or something like that
Anyway they had this technology that let them control ships with their minds from close, but we took it and made it better so we can have captains like Old Tom control them from far away.
I don't really understand it, I prefer knowing stuff about the ships themselves like aerodynamics and lift.
Wait! I'm supposed to be back at the hideout by now. I have to go.
Maybe I'll see you around and we can talk again.
