Chapter 1: Intro
Page 29
The truck ship is slowing down so the stars are no longer blurs while small satellites start to pepper the background. Rico looks a little dejected, sorry he let his alien helper down, but still confused. It's implied that the rest of the trip has been quiet after the card incident.
As the truck pulls in more and comes to a stop, Rico is amazed to see that they're at a giant space port. Other ships are also pulling in and domes are connected to a city-sized station littered with signs and displays where glowing skyscrapers and needles rise above it all. The station looks like a futuristic neon-lit casino and the driver has stopped in a zone a short distance away from a depot that looks like a convention center.
The driver's ship is now hooked up to arms and hoses that link it to an inspection/check-in hut and he's opened up the ports on the truck ship. He adjusts his hat and swings his body towards the door but turns his eye stalks to Rico while pointing down the street, "I'm on my way to make the deliveries. Wherever you're going, this place will help you out."
Rico nods in daft agreement and hops out of the truck, amazed to land on solid ground with a metallic "tip" as his heeled boots hit the surface. The trucker waves the manifest he's holding to Rico as they separate. "Hopefully we'll meet again when you have your card!". Rico politely waves his thanks back.

Author's Notes:
And that wraps up our first chapter for Transported! Rico has been through a bit but has found his way to a new... place? City? Home?
And we all learned the valuable lesson of judging cities by their shinyness. San Francisco- lacking in shine. Oklahoma City- surprisingly shiny. Point to Oklahoma.
