As I ran through the corridor, the deafening siren grew louder and louder. The cold, bleak corridors were bright-white, it took my eyes a little while to adjust. Pressing my hand against the recognition pad, I glanced behind me to check if anyone was following. The stench of poisonous gas started to follow me. I placed my thick space suit over my face: the fumes were making it difficult for me to breathe. The more I thought about the dangers, the more I wished I was still at home. Worried, scared and frightened, I ran closer to the control room. Running towards the locked doors, I gasped at the panic that was surrounding me. The lights started flickering, I new something was wrong, I felt like I was in a horror movie. Exhausted and nervous, sweating and panicked, I still carried on the dangerous mission.
