“We are going to the coordinates, Bueno Island,” John typed something on the motherboard. “We will be there in ten minutes.” He loaded his belongings on the ship, he seemed like he had been preparing for this day for a very long time.

He let out a deep sigh. He then proceeded to move a gear forward and put the ship into drive. We took off, heading to Bueno Island.
Naomi gasped. “My car…”
