    When a scavenger captain offers her an unusual job in the middle of nowhere, Delphine accepts and tags along.

    George Saoulidis

    Writer/Director. I enjoy taking ancient Greek myths and turning them into modern sci-fi spooky versions. I also like to write romantic comedies, and people seem to go "Awww!" over them, so why not?  Many of my stories are icky, in various ways. I’m European, we have a higher tolerance for that kind of stuff. Plus, I’m inspired by mythology and Shakespeare, so if you can’t handle tragedy and bodily fluids, feel free to move on. My photo has been redrawn by a neural network. Join the Mythographers, download the free starting library and begin reading right now: https://www.mythographystudios.com/join

      Where a Spaceship Goes to Die - George Saoulidis

      Chapter 1

      SO, WE JUST STEAL IT? Delphine said, shielding her eyes from the sun.

      Take a look around, the captain said, arms wide. We’re in the middle of nowhere, by definition.

      She looked around. Nothing but ocean.

      3000 miles off the Eastern coast of New Zealand, 2000 miles north of Antarctica, and 2.5 miles below us is the middle of nowhere, or what people call the Spacecraft Cemetery.

      I thought it was called the Oceanic Pole of Inaccessibility.

      He moved his hand in a moving-on motion. Yes, the point on Earth farthest from any land mass. When people have been sinking spaceships for fifty years, it also becomes a Spacecraft Cemetery.

      A rather large wave crashed on the boat and they had to steady themselves on the railing. Delphine liked the spray of water, it felt cool under the scorching sun. But why crash the ships here? Why not just fling them into the Sun?

      Not as easy at it sounds, the captain grunted, working on the buoy. It was a jumble of machinery, obviously ripped out of various places and held together by duct tape, literally in some areas.

      "Okay, fine, why not leave them in space then? It’s not like there’s no room to leave it. It’s called space," Delphine said in her most ‘duh’ tone of voice but she felt it was a dumb question the moment she said it.
