Author's Note:

Hey guys.

Here I am with yet another COVID-19 story.

My birthday has been amazing even though this year, it fell on a COVID-19 day this year.

Anyways…Enjoy :3

Disclaimer: I don't own The Zula Patrol. They belong to Qubo but I do own my OCs.

Narrator: Ahh…Space! The place where everything is so peaceful…So calm…So…

"AH-CHOO!" Sneezed the third planet from the Sun.

Earth.

Narrator: Well, it's not so peaceful, now is it?

Every planet was complaining, including the asteroids and the comet that was orbiting the Sun.

Teremy.

"Why in tarnation did you do that, sistah?" Venus said, looking at her next door neighbor.

Earth looked away at her moon for a moment.

She felt ashamed for what was going on with her continents.

She was also afraid that if she told them what was going on, then they would never want to be near her again.

What was she going to tell them?

"Come on, Earth! Spit it out! I'm your brother, even though we both have polar ice caps." Mars said, trying not to be mean.

Earth sighed.

"Okay okay. I'll tell you! All of yehs!" She said, getting irritated.

Every planet then quieted down and began to listen to Earth.

"You see…Something happened on the Northwest side of my equator. Somewhere near Japan. A virus of some sort. The scientists call it COVID-19…" Earth began to say until she saw comet Teremy raise his comet arm.

"What is it, hun?" The Sun said, looking at him.

Teremy shifted his tail, shyly.

"Pardon me for asking too many questions, Ms. Earth but are you sick? You don't sound too good. Also, is it dangerous?" He asked, concerned.

Earth nodded.

"Yes I'm sick. The sniffling won't stop and I feel like I can't breathe. To answer your other question…" She began to say as she felt a sneeze coming on.

Mercury, Venus and the others began to space out.

"Ah…Ah…AHCHOO!" Earth sneezed, causing Teremy to zoom around to the other side of the Sun.

Phoebe, one of Mars's moons gave Earth a tissue.

"Heh heh thanks." Earth said, now blowing into the tissue.

Teremy came flying back around to Earth and the Moon.

"So…It's dangerous, right? I mean…The virus, Earth." He said, looking at her.

Earth turned to him.

"Yes. It is dangerous, Teremy. A lot of people are dying because of it." She said, looking at the others as well.

Teremy now began to back away from Earth.

"I…I have to go. I've got to drop off a couple of comet aliens on Zula." He said, turning around so that his stardust tail was facing Earth.

Earth sighed and watched as Teremy began to slowly fly away.

Just after Teremy was a little far from Earth and Mars, he was now about to enter the asteroid belt.

He was hesitating from head to tail.

Even though the sun's cosmic light was guiding him, Teremy was still nervous.

He never drove inside the asteroid belt but this was a first for him.

Just as Teremy was about to dive in, he looked back at the Sun.

"Alright, every planet…Spread six feet apart!" Sun said, giving them instructions.

The extraterrestrial and jovian planets looked at her, confused.

Pluto sat fully up and looked at Charon, his lovely moon.

"Charon, do we have to spread six feet apart? I don't want you to be so far away from me." The ice dwarf said, concerned.

Charon looked at the inside to see what was going on.

"I'm not sure, Mr. Pluto but don't worry, you're not going to lose me so easily." She said, with a wink as she snuggled closer to Pluto.

The Sun was rearranging the planets using her solar wave power.

Mercury and Venus were now six feet apart.

"Earth, stay where you are." She said, looking at the blue and cloudy planet.

Earth nodded.

The Sun moved Mars to where he was away from Earth.

"That's better!" Mars said, with a grumpy smirk.

The Sun smiled and looked at Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune and Pluto.

"You all are good!" She said, reassuringly.

Pluto sighed in relief as he had his gravitational pull on Charon, making her closer to him than ever before.

"I love you, Charon." He said, with an icy blush on his face.

Charon was blushing as well.

"Aww, Mr. Pluto. My core is bubbling for you. I love you too." She said, smiling.

Meanwhile…

Teremy was diving over and under every rock in the asteroid belt, slowly and carefully.

He knew that he had to take several comet aliens to Zula so that they could see Astranova but, he was going to make this the time of their lives.

Just as he was about to breach up, he saw an asteroid with a face on it that was wearing some sort of headband.

Hope he's friendly… Teremy said to himself as the asteroid now began to notice him.

The asteroid dude flew over to where Teremy was.

"Hey, comet bro…What's your hang ten?" Asteroid Dude said, floating alongside Teremy.

Teremy looked at Asteroid Dude, confused.

He didn't understand surfer asteroid.

Asteroid Dude sighed.

"Of course…You're not from the Milky Way Galaxy. What galaxy are you from, dude?" He said, looking at the nervous comet.

"I'm from the Comet Galaxy. I'm Teremy, by the way." Teremy said as he began to breach, slowly pushing up with his stardust arms.

Asteroid Dude was astounded.

"Well…You can call me Dude!" He said, looking at Teremy.

Teremy smiled at him.

"So…Dude, you live here?" He said, being level.

Asteroid Dude nodded.

"Yes, Teremy. This is my home that separates us from the rocky and gassy planets." He said as they were flying together.

Teremy began to laugh.

Asteroid Dude looked at him.

"Whoa, dude. Chillax. No need to put on the laughing gas." He said, now trying to help Teremy calm down.

Teremy began to breathe in and out, calmly.

"Sorry. I didn't know that gassy planets exist." He said, trying to hold in his laugh.

Asteroid Dude sighed.

"Not gassy planets. Gas giants! The jovian kings." He said, in a better explanation.

Teremy stopped laughing.

"Heh. I kinda knew that." He said, shyly.

Asteroid Dude smiled.

"So, Teremy…What's your hang ten?" He asked, looking at him.

Teremy still looked at him, confused.

Asteroid Dude sighed.

"I forgot…You don't speak my language, bruh so, here's something easier…Where are you heading, bro?" He said, looking at Teremy.

"I'm heading to Zula to drop off some comet aliens who have been dying to see Astranova for quite some time." Teremy said, focusing on the path.

Asteroid Dude then began to realize the dark indigo comet alien.

"You mean Astra, the alien who's with the Zula Dudes?!" He said, in realization.

Teremy nodded.

"Yep. I bet she's going to be so excited for when I drop some of her friends and family off." He said as he was swaying his tail from side to side, happily.

Asteroid Dude then remembered something.

"Hold on there, bro! Once you enter Zula's atmosphere, we're talking about major damage to the planet, bruh!" He said, in an explanation.

Teremy sighed.

"I know, Dude but I have to do this. For Astranova!" He said as they were now exiting the long and circular asteroid belt.

Just after Teremy got out of the asteroid belt, he then saw that Asteroid Dude was gone.

He sighed sadly.

And miles to go before I sleep…And miles to go before I sleep! Teremy said to himself as he continued his trip on to Zula.

He knew that it was going to be a while.

(So…This is my third Zula Patrol story. First one was 'A Star Has Fallen', which I'm keeping for publishing. The second one is 'Far From Home', which is actually a series on my YouTube channel. Just look up 'Zula Patrol: Far From Home'. Stay tuned for chapter two!)
