A Plan To Get Out

We were getting back to the Martian camp from our mission when we got a code blue.  Looks like Aurora found more than what she was looking for at MSS (Martian Space Station).  Axel, Mars and Aurora had decided to go after Pruitt. The secret cargo bay had torpedoes and all of the other missing kids.  They are locked in and they need help getting them out.  She is sending the life boat to get us.

Looks like Mars has a plan but first we need to get to MSS.  We finished building our prototype for our own life boat just last week. Luckily Troll Ninja has completed flight simulation school and can pilot the spaceship for us. 

Getting to MSS was a rough ride. We got caught in a Martian methane hurricane and a monster dust storm that lasted over ten hours.  Now on deck at MSS we quickly found Mars, Aurora, and Axel.  The plan is to use to break the code on the force field to release the kids and get them back to our Martian camp. 

We still haven't figured out why Mr. Pruitt has all these torpedoes. What was he planning to do with all these kids?  Shouldn't they be on the colony with everyone else?   

As we were getting close to breaking the code, Mr. Pruitt walked in right behind us.  We felt a strange force surround us and we were stuck in this giant liquid bubble.  Now, what can we do?

On a Misson

I can't believe we have now been on Mars for three years!  How time flies when you are having fun. Actually, it has been real tough the last few months.  It has been hard getting supplies from Earth and we must find a way to make our own energy. 

I am in charge of organizing a discovery mission. We are looking for natural resources we can use for energy.  Back on Earth we used fossil fuels but, that is not going to work here.  There are no dead plants or dinosaurs.  We must look for alternative and renewable energy.    

We are working on an interesting solution to this problem.  Today I am asking Wizard and his crew for help. We have not been the best of friends but, I need their help to be able to be successful.  We are  looking for natural gas to power our generators. Being that there is so much methane gas on the Mars atmosphere we are conducting experiments to see how we can use this gas as a source of energy.  

On our mission the team has been successful in filling up all the mobile tanks and the test have come back positive. We did run into some unexpected trouble with the colony as they wanted to steal rovers. Luckily we were able to fight them off and avoided disaster on our way back.  I am sad to report that Hunter was captured and we don't know what happened.  Until next time and remember: To the Stars!!!

A Day on Mars

How time flies when you are having fun! Wow, we didn't see that coming. Who would have known that Aurora was Fang? Even I, second in command, did not know.  I would only see Fang in our meetings once a week.  I thought Fang was a man because of the robotic voice.  So, a day on Mars it is.  It is very exciting to be on the Mars team and let me tell you why.

On a normal day on Mars we get a wake up call to our sleeping capsule about 4:30 in the morning.  We have to check our welcome screen with our daily agenda and special missions before we report to duty after breakfast.  On this day, I am in charge of leading a raid on the colony to get supplies.  We have not figured out how to produce our own so, we have to "borrow" some from them.  If we are lucky we can avoid the Telegreens patrolling and protecting the colony.  Today we got lucky and hit the jackpot with food supplies and equipment to repair our base camp.


By lunch time we were able to go on our second raid. Today we are looking for new recruits. We intercepted communications coming from the Pruitt satellite and we found out there are new colonists coming in.  We decided to intercept the space ship. Orion is and excellent pilot but, I think we can get them this time.  By the evening meeting back at command post, I was in charge of welcoming out new members.  I was especially happy to announce that Mars Patel was joining our ranks.  


I do have to take care of my pending business with Wizard and his followers.  Looks like they are holding old grudges with my "old self" from back on the Colony.  I had a close call just recently but, I think we can be gentlemen and work things out.  There is no need for any violence, at least not from my part.   Now we have to wait and see what Mr. Pruitt has up his sleeves.  Until next time, thanks for visiting my blog.  Mr. Clean, signing off.  And remember, To The Stars!

Hello World! by Mr. Clean

My name is Mr. Rodriguez AKA Mr. Clean and I was a founding teacher at H.G. Wells Middle School.  I am the Spanish Language teacher.  I was sent to the school as an undercover agent hired by Oliver Pruitt to "recruit" students for Pruitt Prep.  

My job is to make sure there is a smooth transition (To Clean up) in the "transfer" of students to Mars. We want to erase memories of those students left behind and make sure parents know that their children are safe at Pruitt Prep. 

During season one, I made sure Aurora and friends were not found by Mars Patel.  Looks like he ,along with a few others, are able to keep their memories alive.  It must be a special power they have. 

 I was also in charge of setting up "The Colony".   As you found out in season two, we ran into some trouble.  Let me explain, there is a rebel group of kids that decided to go off on their own, they call themselves the Martians and their leader is Fang. They have been taking students from the colony to join their group.

After his incident I was fired by Mr. Pruitt. As I was going back on board heading back to Earth, Fang intercepted our space ship and I was asked to join the Martians. I am now second in command.  So, I wonder how everyone else ended up on Mars.  Read our student blogs to find out more.
