Disclaimer Notice: Gods its been awhile since I did one of these lol. The only Character I own atm is Cassandra. Treat her nicely...
AN: Well... I hope I have it in me to do another one of these, I'm getting old peoples. Sad that I say that when I'm only on the verge of 26, but considering my two biggest fanfics and the only completed fan fics were done when I was what 18? I hope I don't disappoint! Also note that while writting this im in the middle of the actual game. I might cheat and go read a walk through or view cutscenes on youtube to get the whole story down atm I'm presuming only an inner circle of the cast on Elicoor II know about Fayt being from another world.
Test of Time
*beep beep*
"What is it now?" a flustered looking blue haired young man complained. He turned away from his lab desk overrun with analysis and statistics to the communications screen which was flashing red due to on incoming call.
"Hey Fayt, you might want to answer that this time," said a male voice over the intercom. "It's from Earth."
"Thanks Cliff, I got it" Fayt said, already feeling tense, wondering who it could be. ~Its either my mom, Sophia, or the lab,~ he thought. ~Hopefully my mom.~ He hit the accept button, praying. An image of his mother Ryoko Leingod appeared on the screen. "Oh hey mom, whats up?"
"Something big, sweetie. I know your on vacation, or are supposed to be," Dr. Leingod said, peering at the cluttered work desk that she was seeing on her screen over Fayt's shoulder. "But this couldn't wait. I need your help, and possibly Maria's help to."
"Help with what?" Fayt asked, already wondering how willingly Maria would be to helping his mother.
"Do you remember the legends of the old sleepers from the twenty first century? During the time of the third world war?" Ryoko said, trying for an easy slide into her discovery.
"A little," Fayt confessed, thinking back. "From what I remember in the history texts back at school a few countries were in the beginning stages of developing cryostasis chambers; there were rumors that a selected few individuals were put in them to test them out. However after that the history books get muddled when the war broke out, I did a thesis paper on the cryogenics development and from my research I never found evidence that they 'Sleepers' were ever awakened or even if they just didn't make it."
His mother got a very proud smile on her face, "Well we found one, and she's still alive!"
Fayt's eyebrows shot up, "How is that possible?" He quickly did the calculations in his head, "That was close to a mellinia ago! The cryostasis chambers weren't advanced enough to last that long?"
"I know amazing isn't it!" Ryoko exclaimed. "And whats more, our scanners can't confirm her species! She's humanoid, but the scanner isn't registering her as Terran!"
Fayt sat down, reflecting on his old college days were he and collegues debated for hours on whether or not a technologically developed species not of Terran origins had influenced Earth's sudden jump in technology around the middle of the 21st century. "Thats, thats amazing..." he said, dumbfounded. "But where do Maria and I fit in here?"
"Well, I need a mobile effective stasis field," Ryoko said to the point. "I've already done the math, and combining yours and Maria's abilities we can make a very strong stabilized stasis field, one that can allow us to move her from the very deep bunker the archeologists found her in to an actual lab on the surface."
"Don't you have a mobile stasis field?"
"Well, we need a large one, and as you know they are still working out the kinks in its need for large volume of energy. And what little energy we're going to have access to down there will be needed to start the programs to awake her."
"I see," Fayt nodded, understanding now. "I'll get ahold of Maria."
"Thanks sweetie," his mother said, disconnecting the call.
Fayt sighed and tapped the comm for the bridge, "Cliff, change of plans..."
A large blonde man appeared on the screen, "Oh, so you're no longer on vacation eh?"
"No, big discovery back home, I'm needed. So is Maria," Fayt sighed.
"Ho ho, she's gonna be as thrilled as you are," Cliff laughed, knowing that unlike Fayt, Maria really was on vacation.
"Yeah, give her my apologize, when you get her on the comm I'll come explain, right now I have to finish these analysis," Fayt said, already turning back to his desk.
"Will do."
AN: Sorry for being so short, I have a feeling if I include the next part it's gonna be really long, and I never enjoy a long first chapter lol. That and I'm basically testing the waters, when I went hunting for a SO3 fanfic I didn't find many.
