The Big Bomb
16 Feb 2024Krosul X. Large
Krosul X. Large sat in his cockpit and listened to the thunder of the cannons that tore his enemies apart. He grinned satisfied as he saw the explosions on his radar. He had just wiped out an enemy fleet that had tried to block an important trade route. He was proud of his achievement and of his loyal Corvette, which he affectionately called [Hale] RUNGHOLT.He turned on the music that he had found on an old data disc. It was a collection of songs by a band called Metallica, which he admired for their powerful riffs and lyrics. He sang along loudly as he listened to the song "Enter Sandman". He felt like a hero who protected the galaxy from evil.
He received a message from his squadron commander, who praised him for his bravery and efficiency. He told him that he would receive a reward for his services. He asked him if he had any special request. Krosul thought briefly and then replied: "I want a new nuclear bomb. The biggest one you have."
His commander was surprised, but he agreed. He told him that he could expect a delivery soon. He congratulated him again and ended the communication. Krosul looked forward to his new weapon. He had always had a fascination for nuclear weapons. He found them powerful and beautiful. He wanted to try them out and see how they turned the enemies into ashes.
He continued his music and listened to the song "Master of Puppets". He felt like the master of the galaxy, who decided the fate of the others with his finger. He laughed loudly and said to himself: "I am Krosul X. Large, and I am the boss."
