The final flight

Intro: Once there was a kerbal named Jebediah, who live on Kerbin. He was one of the many kerbals at Kerbal Space Center. Jebediah was most known for his never ending grin. He smiles and smiles, even in a catastrophic rocket failure. He is also 27. He had 2 brothers who also worked with Jeb at KSC. One of them was Bill, who was the oldest of the 3 brothers at 30, and the other was named Bob who is 19, and he is always scared when Jeb is around because Jeb always thinks life should be like action movies.

Chapter 1: “Hey Jeb, where did Bob go†asked Bill. “Uhmmm, I dunno†said Jeb. Ever since they landed on Duna, Bob has always been scared and keeps hiding. Suddenly, Bob popped out of nowhere. However, he looks a bit scared. “Bob, why are you so scared?†asked Jeb. “I don’t want to go to Laythe.†Bob said. He is scared because in 10 months, they will land on Laythe and establish a base where they will live, along with 6 other kerbals, where they will be staying for 10 years. “So, we should get to the simulator to practice for the landing and stuff†said Bill. And off they went to the training centre.

5 months later…

“Hey, is it just me or did summer come early?†asked Jeb, out near the shore near KSC with his 2 brothers. “Um, I don’t think so.†said Bill, playing volleyball with Bob. When they looked up to Kerbol, it had grown 3 times larger than 5 months before. They went to KSC and checked the Kubble Space Telescope’s camera. They zoomed in on the place where Moho is, but that area was covered in Kerbol! They then zoomed out to Eve and surprisingly, Kerbol is about to eat up Eve! They ran to their boss’s office and said “KERBOL IS GETTING BIGGER, IT’S GONNA EAT KERBIN UP, WE GOTTA RELOCATE EVERYONE ON KERBIN TO LAYTHE SINCE IT’S THE ONLY OTHER PLACE WITH AN ATMOSPHERE!!!!!!!!†but the boss just said “No it isn’t, we checked†so they asked “How long ago?†so then he had no answer. So they said “Exactly.†They then all ran to the design room to make a new ship that can fit all of Kerbins population. A month later, their design was being built, but it would be estimated to be finished in 5 months. “5 FREAKING MONTHS? KERBOL’LL EAT KERBIN UP IN 2 MONTHS, WORK FASTER!!!!!†said the Boss when told it’ll take 5 months for it to finish.†But we’re working at full speed, if you want us to work faster, why not hire the entire population?†said a worker. Suddenly, the Boss had an idea. He traveled around Kerbin in an SSTO piloted by the one and only Jeb in less than a week, putting up flyers in every country. Each flyer said “KSC wants YOU to help save Kerbin. Apply at KSC in the South-East part of Kafrika and save the world!†Soon, KSC was filled with 5x more workers and the estimated time of completion is in 1 month, 29 days! 1 month, 29 days later, the ship was complete with built in missiles from Danny2462 Co. and were there for killing the kraken if it happen to come near.

On the day of the launch, everyone on Kerbin gathered at KSC and boarded the ship. However, recent data shows Kerbol will eat up Kerbin on the day after the launch! So once everyone on Kerbin boarded, they went at full throttle and lifted off with 100000kn of thrust! It was enough to exit the SOI of Kerbol in less than 30 seconds. Once they got far from Kerbol (Like, at Eeloo’s orbit) they relaxed for the 20 year journey to another system. Suddenly, the Kraken came behind them! They all floated to the front of the ship, since it was attacking from the back, but there was nothing they could do! But Jeb remembered they had Danny2462 Co. brand missiles which were guaranteed to banish the kraken. So Jeb targeted the missiles at the kraken and fired, but it weakened it slightly. “We’re getting a refund on those†Jeb said. Suddenly, he remembered there were escape pods on the ship with SRB’s attached to them, so Jeb used one and piloted the pod to the kraken. “NO JEB, NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!†cried Bob and Bill, watching the pod near the kraken. Finally, Jeb fired the SRB’s at the kraken and flew into it, killing it. Everyone on the ship was saddened at the loss of the greatest hero of Kerbin, Jebediah Kerman. He sacrificed himself to save them all, so Bill grabbed an MMU and got Jeb’s body. His body was lifeless. Then Bill and Bob planned a funeral for him, one with his real body sent into space, and a 3D printed copy of his body for burial in the ground.

And so, the fearless space hero lived up to his name…

Farewell, Jebediah, you will be missed

Very nicely written.

However, did they realise they could go and edit persistence.sfs and revive Jeb?

Open the save using whatever can open the save without weird characters. Then change his ToD value to 0, dude! :D:D:D:D
