It was talked about until the end of time. In the middle of the War of 2112, when every passenger of the escape cruiser "Behemoth" was incapacitated due to a traitorous release of knock-out gas, an unlikely hero emerged.
Due to a one in a million immunity to the gas, little Susie Perkins found herself left awake in the civilian compartment, and for reasons never known, had also developed a temporarily increased intelligence because of it. With one engine also knocked out due to shelling from the enemy, she amazingly managed to get to the cockpit and land the cruiser herself.
In this undated photo after the landing, the unlikely pint-sized hero poses with the damaged aircraft, a heroine for all time.
Within hours, she reverted to the intelligence of her years, and spent the rest of her childhood years without knowing exactly why she was so revered. |
