People say stupid things when they don't mean them. People say stupid things when they want people to listen. People also say stupid things when they want someone to say something stupid back.
Zac-B312 was the one to rebel against that.
Zac lay in the pod for River to wake him. She really stood for Reality Intelligence Vitality Enterprise Remembrance.
So River was her name for short. The two were a team, a really good team. She had been there when no one else would be, after their ship had been destroyed River had ejected the cryogenic room with escape pods into space right near a singularity where time would cease to exist until someone picked them up. He heard the latch opening slowly and hissing. They had been stranded for years until their cryo pod cleared the singularity, River came up on her pedestal beside him she was around the same size as Cortana when in miniature version. Her appearance was a young female with long hair, tied up in a loose bun often changing in and out, her attire resembled a lab coat.
"River?" He croaked.
She bought up a small datapad going through it. "Zac, are you awake?" She questioned with the voice of Jennifer Hale.
"Yes, River how long?" He questionED.
"Eight years four months twenty five days seven hours and thirty eight minutes-thirty nine" She corrected.
"Where are we?" He asked.
"I don't know" River moved a piece of hair from her 'eyes'.
"What do you mean you don't know" Zac questioned.
"Zac I don't recognise any of this system! And-" Alarms went off.
"River!?" He questioned yanking her from her pedestal.
"We have to meet our guests apparently. They're trying to hack my network. Wait..." She crossed her arms biting her cheek trying to solve something. "I'm picking up a signal. It's...Zac, they're human" River says.
"What?" Zac demanded.
"They're human! They're technology is a little more advanced than wherever we are should be. I'm attempting to hail them, oh they want to talk to you" She crossed her arms sending him the signal.
"This is Captain Anderson of the Normandy with just one question. Who the hell are you?"
