I gave a shot at 1st person, mixing my modern ideas into space. I dont think this over done the limit.
Chapter One
"Turn the deflector shields to maximum!" commanded my captain.
Instantly I flipped the blue switch on my control panel beside my seat. The straps buckled across my chest prevented me from taking deep breaths, very uncomfortable. Soon there was a loud sound like the engine of a speeding race car as the deflector shield used most of the ships energy to power up.
“Deflector shields are at maximum power!” I reported to Berg, my captain.
Berg nodded and began to maneuver the ship trying to avoid the enemy fire.
We called them ’Arwolves’, our most hated enemy. They were extra terrestrials from planet Arkonan who were bent on universal domination. Suddenly the ship jolted as one of its turrets fired at the enemies. Ada was successful as her precise shooting earned a burning Arwolf exploding before everyone’s eyes. “ That’s a girl, Ada!” I complemented through my ear piece. She didn’t say anything in return but I knew she smiled at my voice. “ Get your mind back on battle Zeek! Increase the throttle on thrusters seven and eight!” the captain scolded. I forced my mind back to the present and pushed levers seven and eight on the control panel to nine.
The ship jerked several more times as Ada and another crew member Carlos began to fire at the Arwolves. Soon nothing was visible in the blackness of space except for flying shrapnel. “ Yet another victory by the crew of Wezker9!” I cheered.
I looked at my captain who also had a smirk across his battle scarred face. His hair was tied back and his goatee neatly combed. Berg was a man being affected by age now however, and I could see it in his eyes, the dread of never flying again. “ So, where we headed now?” I asked him. Berg shifted his eyes to the touch screen map above their heads. He touched Yunion, a planet that was just one gigantic city.
