Ten aliens enter tunnels in space. The Runner, a famous cartographer, the Skater, an athletic teenager, the Lizard, a sleepy reptile, the Bunny, a hyperactive rodent, the Child, a sneaky kid, the Duplicator(also known as the Negotiator), a conspiracy making family man, the Gentleman, an upper class with an amazing vocabulary, the Pastafarian, a bridge wielding priest of the Church of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, the Student, an intelligent gravity manipulator, and the Angel, an egotistical engineer. They explore for awhile and all meet each other. They want to go home, but find out their Planet is missing. They end up looking for a way home. The Child watches the others activity, and his father uses the info to come up with a conspiracy. The Angel get's tired of the Runner's leadership, and finds his own way home. The Student finds a wormhole with the Runner, and they brainstorm ways to reach it. They find ringed boxes which they use to build a bridge. The Angel finds who we can and tells them to come home with him. The Runner, Skater, Student, and Gentleman decline, while the Lizard is basically left behind. The Gentleman is revealed to have taken the Lizard for himself, and builds a project, his own tunnel. The Runner starts to the Wormhole, while the Angel starts home. The Angel is revealed to be working on a boat, which they use to cross a gap they find, and leave the Duplicator behind, leaving him to catch up. The Duplicator starts to suspect that the Angel wants to take his son, and the Angel reveals they should get home in about two months. The Runner and Skater split from the Student. She is working on test when she hears strange beeping. This beeping responds to her telling her the Authorities are coming. She waits, and sleeps, and finds out how to start the beeping again. The Pastafarian leaves the Angel, and finds the Gentleman. She tests another tunnel he made, since he was stuck. The Pastafarian finishes and ask where the Runner is....
