An enormous ship can be seen traveling through an alien planet system. As the view zooms in, we see a window with two figures sitting inside. "Space is so beautiful isn't it" asked the smaller one. She was an anthropomorphic hedgehog in a red dress with blue trim who had pink fur and white highlights. She had blue and yellow shoes on and she was speaking to a male human. She was about as high as his waist.
"It really is. Tell me, what is your name? And what exactly are you?" Asked the human. "Terminal Velocity. I prefer T though. I am one of Altera Corps' greatest creations. Man made life in the flesh, a hedgehog if you couldn't tell already. And you?" Asked The now named T.
"I never knew my name. I just have people call me Anon, sir, mister, or something like that. Back on earth, I was offered a place on the Aurora mining vessel as one of the colonists. The way I saw it, why turn down a chance to see the universe for a few million bucks? I had the money because I was always the first place winner in contests and athletic events" said The also named Anon. (I don't know the player character's backstory in subnautica so I made one up)
"So why don't you know your name?" Asked T. "I was an orphan and nobody ever gave me an official one. Why are you Called Terminal Velocity?" Asked Anon. "I can run super fast..like really super fast. I don't know why or how, but the people in the labs said something about a Handheld spectroscope scanner, a super battery, and a habitat nuclear reactor malfunctioning in the lab while they were gene splicing me" said T as she listed the items on her gloved fingers in an absent minded tone.
"So being from Altera, what do you know about the Degasi?" Asked Anon. "Well, they said they were crashing on some water planet and they saw some…green laser come up out of nowhere. I don't know weather they were in hyper sleep for too long or if they just had the Pressure Re-Active Waterproof Nanosuit abilitys go to their heads" said T. "The what?" Asked Anon. "Oh, the PRAWN suit. That's the official name for it" said T.
"Yeah, those Exosuits do make you feel like a superhero or something. And I heard an article about the hyper sleep making the early testers somewhat delusional. I bet it was one of the two" said Anon.
'Attention all personal, we are going to initiate a slingshot maneuver around planet 1546B. Please hold on to a nearby secured object and any children and personal belongings' said the Speaker system. Look at that! It's so pretty!" Said T as she held on to a rail.
Suddenly, there was a violent shaking before red sirens began flashing. "Warning, all crew members please make your way to the nearest lifepod and prepare for launch! This is not a drill!" Said the speakers.
"Oh crap, this way Anon!" Shouted T as she pulled him down the hallway. "Woah, T, where are we going?!" Asked Anon. "Lifepod! There's one this way. Or would you rather die in a fire?" Said T. As she pulled him down through a hatch.
'Launch in three-' they made it onto a lifepod 5 as the countdown began. '2-1-.' "Oh my word, Look at that!" Said T as she pointed out the upper hatch on the celling of the lifepod at the exploding Aurora.
The panel next to T fell off the wall and then knocked her out. "Oh Shit!" was all Anon could say before the rouge panel put him to sleep too.
Wow, we are really doing this huh? A fanfic about a currently unfinished game. Not to mention the storyline is variable and depends mostly on where you go and when you go there and in the stuff you have at any given time. That and the main character...the only real living character in the majority of the game is mostly mute. The only actual speech comes from AIs or machines.
