Building Civilizations on Primitive Planets
4. Fucking Oyen Cat
After Maghrib on August 17, 2022, RIHLAH trials began to be conducted by Zayn and Udin. They plan to teleport to the Sommerville area a few miles east of their Princeton campus.
With safety suits and complete readiness, they plan to teleport to the center of the city's Dilboy Stadium. This was the first test and initial operation of the RIHLAH. They purposely tried short, medium, long and transcontinental distance sizes. Even with the battery technology and power efficiency they found they claim to be able to teleport every second to anywhere on Earth for 100 years.
Zayn was appointed Udin to be Captain of the Rihlah, Udin himself became a crew who entered the coordinates and the results of the calculations Zayn performed in the RIHLAH control tool. The coordinates have been entered, it is time for Zayn to press the teleportation button on the control device. While doing a countdown with dramatic pronunciation, they both had to test their work, which was the first time there and only one in the world.
“Three, Two,” and suddenly “Meonggg.” the shrill voice of two pet cat Oyen Udin running over the panels and gosh dragon, the coffee cups in the Zayn cup holder stand that should have been designed quite safely from spilling over the panels and creating sparks, there seems to be an electrical short circuit. Before RIHLAH's electricity died one of the damn cats who was about to mate managed to scramble the coordinate input and calculations Udin entered while jumping to the teleportation button in front of Zayn and then Blup. Byurrr.
RIHLAH was teleported to somewhere in the coastal ocean, they thought they had been teleported to the New Jersey coast more to the east than they had determined. But the location they thought in the Atlantic Ocean was very quiet, not visible ships crossing the waters. The silhouette of the land seemed only pitch-black without lights. An odd thing considering from the coast of New Jersey should be seen full of lights on land that looks from the ocean.
Shortly after tying up his cat Udin approached Zayn who was repairing the ship's electricity, the two damn oyen cats were just tied up and Udin put them in a box of ammunition that still had enough space. The appearance of the damn oyen cats into the RIHLAH was beyond their scenario, and that night Udin forgot not to put them both in cages in their home.
“About how long will the electricity in RIHLAH be able to return to normal Zayn?” ask Udin. “Now Din, your fucking cats are messing things up, and tonight it's so dark there's no moon in the sky, I don't know with my little flashlight how long we can turn on RIHLAH again, btw please turn on your hape flashlight to help me fix it faster,” Zayn said.
That night they did not get an internet signal at all, something that was actually very strange considering their position was still close to the mainland, the hour hand in the RIHLAH showed at 23:45 American East Coast Time, which is, Zayn, assisted by Udin, managed to restart RIHLAH's electricity, but both have not succeeded in repairing the teleportation machine installed in RIHLAH. Both of them were tired and chose to go to bed. After dawn they intend to anchor the RIHLAH at the nearest port they meet in Raritan Bay in what they think is New Jersey.
