Toby trudged along the crater-ridden surface of the moon, feeling somewhat discouraged and out of sorts. His toy dinosaur Barney, ever the optimist, scampered ahead with an eagerness that Toby could only envy. They had been on their lunar adventure for a couple of hours now and still hadn’t seen anything particularly remarkable or noteworthy. “Come on Toby!

” Barney called back over his shoulder. “Let’s see what else this place has to offer!” Toby sighed but forced a smile onto his face as he picked up his pace. As they rounded the next hill, something unexpected caught Toby’s eye—a strange structure off in the distance, gleaming in the light of the full moon.

” Barney squinted into the darkness, trying to make out what Toby was so excited about. Then he let out a gasp of surprise as he finally realized what it was—an enormous spaceship! They rushed towards it, barely believing their luck.

Once they got close enough, they were able to make out a ladder that extended down from one of its ports. Without hesitation, Toby grabbed hold of it and began to climb up into the ship. The interior was surprisingly luxurious and well-maintained; clearly this ship had not been abandoned for long!

A voice from somewhere deep inside called out: “Welcome aboard my friends! I am glad you found me here on this lonely moon…I have been stranded for weeks now with no one to help me repair my ship…but perhaps with your help we can get her back in working order and make our way home together?” Toby smiled at Barney—they had just found themselves an exciting new mission!

With renewed enthusiasm, they set about putting things right aboard the ship…and soon enough, after much tinkering and toil (not to mention a few nervous moments!) they managed to get her engines fired up once more and set off towards home. As they neared Earth again, Toby couldn't help but feel proud of their accomplishment—they had gone on an incredible journey together and made it back safely again!
