Regaining Lost Confidence

Mizu whistled a tune as he waited inside a small cabin leading to outer space. The door was shut tight now and there was no sound around them except the 'whoosh' that came from somewhere. Probably the engines. He was pretty sure the 'woosh'es weren't there on the first three days. He cracked his neck and looked at the clock placed above his brother who was sitting on the bench opposite to Mizu. 

It has been 6 days since they left Earth. That meant they were closer to Earth than home. 

"Mizu," Akaru called. 

Mizu just lifted his eyes to look at him. They were both pretty serious now. They had no idea if they could pull this massive energy shield off and then the panic attack they had witnessed from Meg scared them pretty bad too. It wasn't a good day. 

"If we don't redirect this asteroid, it will go land on Earth right?"
