On a dare a naive orphan tries to get aboard a legendary space ship, and back to the orphanage before dinner with a "souvenir" from the ship or the two bullies who made the dare will smash his model space ship.
Thanks for the input. ... True he is ridiculed for playing with his toy, by the bullies. ... Also, I don't think I've mentioned this, and I've found no room for it in the logline, as I still try to keep it fairly short, but the story is supposed to be set in a time and place (not Earth) where and whRead more
Thanks for the input. … True he is ridiculed for playing with his toy, by the bullies. … Also, I don’t think I’ve mentioned this, and I’ve found no room for it in the logline, as I still try to keep it fairly short, but the story is supposed to be set in a time and place (not Earth) where and when space ships are commonplace. But the ship in question is special, as it belongs to a hero who is so legendary that most people think he doesn’t actually exist. And he has to get through this busy space port to get to the ship, where there are many dangers, with ships taking off and loading and unloading going on. And maybe some shade characters, that I’m thinking of adding that the kid can help put a stop to, as some of you suggested he becomes a bit of a hero himself.

OMG, you're right. Of course the protag will want to stay on board and travel along with the space ship. You've helped me figure out the ending!

I hadn’t decided if he would actually meet the owner of the ship, his hero ? a Flash Gordon/Buck Rogers type of hero ? and he will ask to stay on board, and even make a very good case. But the owner will turn him down this time.
This whole story is a bit of back story for another story that I’ve already written a first draft of, which ends with the orphan character, as an adult (early twenties) getting to travel along on the ship in the end.

I know what you mean. And you're right. Actually I think I have the very ending of the movie figured out ? not set in stone, but I've considered the orphan getting adopted and new parent buying him a new model kit of the ship. It's what happens and who he meets (or doesn't meet) once he gets onboardRead more

It’s what happens and who he meets (or doesn’t meet) once he gets onboard the ship which shouldn’t happen until act 3, the way I figured it.
