Ashes of Eden

Ellizabeth finally went on an ending journey. Journey she dreamed of all her life. Now, when nothing else is left.

She was looking for answers. Reasons. One of them was obvious, but, was it enough that creators wanted to erase us, just as they created us.

Mr. Weyland wanted immortality. Humanity has been searching for it from its beginnings, but haven't yet discovered the secret of eternity. Even our creators weren't immortal. But, who is it then? Creators of our Creators?

Elizabeth did not belong anywhere anymore. She did not know if she could ever go back to Earth, now that it was saved from destruction.

She wanted to belong somewhere, but no one could offer it to her anymore. Her parents have been taken from her, her lover, and her motherhood. Even humanity. The only thing that her creators had given her was to become the mother of monster. Or, was it a human hand?

David, human creation, was with her. She understood his motives for helping her. He and his creator were involved somehow in death of her boyfriend. Although, David showed signs of free will, so she couldn't be sure who actually caused his death. And a child she never wanted to create. At least not in that way.

And, she was the cause of a death too. She killed one of those who created her. Even so, she wasn't even upset about that fact, but just now, as if she became aware of it. She didn't want to kill anyone, but if she didn't, she wouldn't survive.

Elizabeth was more and more occupied with thoughts about the reasons for going in Engineers home world. What does she think she will find? Does she think they will welcome her?

Long ago did they decide to destroy them, but how did they not complete that task when mission failed? Were they scared of their own weapon? Do the gods feel fear? Are they gods at all, or just beings like us? In silence and darkness of the Engineers spaceship, she tried to stay sane.

Because he did not show signs of hostility to her, she asked David to teach her more about flying that ship. On one occasion, she decided to learn at least the basics of their language, if she ever got in touch with them to speak to them. She decided to learn their writing too.

It was not easy, but she was learning. She begun to understood their words, and quickly learned the meaning of the many symbols.

The course she had put into the main computer led to their planet. She found it on one of their maps, it was marked differently from other planets. She was not sure whether it was a birth planet or just a colony. Maybe another planet on which they created life. How many civilizations created by their hands actually exist?

David showed great signs of affection to her. She even began to create feelings for him, wanted him, but she couldn't allow it. Memories of past events tortured her. How can she develop such feelings at all?

She said good night to David, who was still studying the other maps she found on board, and went to the "bathroom". She needed to refresh herself before she goes to bed. Engineers life on the ship wasn't too different from their own, but with much more advanced technology.

Water helped her to bring her thoughts in order. She felt better and more optimistic, so she decided to lie in a cryo pod. She felt more protected in there. It's like her creators were with her when she's in it. Watching her, like a child. And, she was their child. She went to sleep with that thought in her head.

In her dream she was again experiencing everything she went with the Prometheus crew on that moon. Faces of her boyfriend, colleagues and Engineer were haunting her.

Her child taking human form, then Engineers. And hers. She was pulling herself from her own womb.

She woke up cowered in sweat. Making her hard to breathe. She looked around her, she was in the pod. She tried to slow down her breathing, to calm her heartbeats and the panic that began to crawl inside her. It was just a dream!

She was looking at the cover of the cryo pod. Someone is looking at her. It started to open. David stood above her. "I felt your anxiety. Is everything OK? "He asked.

'' I'm fine.I had a bad dream. How much time do we have before we get to the planet?"

'' According to my calculations about three days.''

Smile appeared on her face. She'll finally see day light. Various pictures of old Roman and Greek cities were starting to create in her mind.

"David, I wonder what their home looks like?"

"Well, we'll find out soon," he replied with a smile. "We did not finish your language training. It would be a good thing to intensify it, as we are approaching the planet. Of course, I will help you communicate with them, but it would be good to learn it more. They weren't exactly the most excited with me as a translator last time.''

Elizabeth spent the most of her spare time learning language and writing. She didn't want to go unprepared. There was little chance that the meeting will be successful and happy anyway.

Suddenly alarm went on. Red light appeared on the control desk. They were very close. The ship left the warp, and slowed down. The blue-green planet appeared before them. Just like Earth.

Her tears gleamed in her eyes. Her hands began to tremble with excitement. They are here. They will finally meet them. She finally came to the end of her life journey.

The ship quickly broke planet's atmosphere. They heard a loud blast after they went through it. Mountains, rivers and trees appeared in their full glory. Wonderful scene lied in front of them. Light came into the ship from all sides. Its skeleton began to slit and show openings like windows. It's as the ship wants to show her she had succeeded.

In the distance, the city was seen. Huge city.

Elizabeth stood and watched. She stretched out her hand to David, waiting to take it. Tears began to glow on her pale face.

"Elizabeth, you've come to Paradise." Saying this, he hit her head and knocked her down to the floor. She lost her conscious. Blood began to show on her head. Her heart began to slow down the rhythm. It won't take long.

Smile disappeared from David's face. "How funny," he thought, "David was king and defender of the Chosen ones by God, and he will be their destroyer."

Metallic cold expression wrapped his face, his calculated look directed toward the city. He went to the armory and waited to come close to the town. He will use their own weapon against them.
Sounds of trumpets were getting closer and closer. People were expecting them.

The access portal hovered over the city. Ship was quickly approaching.
David turned on the opening of the armory. It was just above the town center. A lot of them greeted from the ground.

''Engineers or one of their colonies? It does not matter, it will serve purpose." He thought and dropped the urns on the helpless inhabitants of the city.

Black death quickly spread across the city. Panic caught their inhabitants, but it was too late, they couldn't escape. Weapon created by their creators swallowed them.

David watched the scene. ''Finally, we reached Hell in Heaven!''

Bodies of the inhabitants were agonized. All of their body cells had broken down at a high speed. The tissue came out of them and turned into a lively, living death. Which devoured the rest of their body. Something alive began to crawl on the stone of the city. Hungry, bloody and with just one instinct, to survive.

David watched the scene with admiration. Ship that waited for his arrival began to crumble. His path became distorted. It flew to a nearby forest surrounded by two mountains, and quickly crashed into the surrounding trees, leaving a desert behind it as it fell down.

"Finally, the last piece disappeared with them. Time for a new start. New Paradise." He thought.

There was no emotion on his face. Coldness was all that could be seen, such as the coldness of the city, and soon of the whole planet.

David landed ship near the city, and took Elizabeth to the nearby medical room. He put her on the table and watched.

"Sleep." He whispered in her ear. "You will be the creator of the new paradise."

She heard someone's words but couldn't move. She was too tired. ''What happened?'' She thought.

He took several metal bars they had in the ship and a improvised torch, if something goes wrong, and got out quickly to the city. He was very impatient. He always wanted to create. Now he finally has a chance.

David approached the city. Stone monolithic doors stood in front of him. Symbols were engraved on them. Some kind of inscription. He managed to read it: They have created life on their own image.

"That's exactly how I'll do it!" He said.

''So weak. They did not deserve to live: people, creators, and these creatures. They were all lower creatures. Lower than him and what hi will create, using their technology. They had it and did not know how to use it.'' He thought.

David entered the city. It was magnificent. Huge walls and numerous palaces surrounded the city center. Everywhere around him were the remains of city inhabitants and several new creatures that have emerged from their bodies as a product of their destruction.

They started to die on the ground. Just like their hosts.

He entered the main citadel. At least he supposed it was, by the huge statues it was decorated with. There was a big entrance inside the huge hall. Lying on the floor were scattered parchment papers with some kind of symbols, similar to the Engineers. They seem to be working on some sort of important work. He picked them up slowly, maybe they would be of use to him.

Far away there could be heard loud blast and roar. Like something huge approaching. He went out to see what's happening. Ship was approaching to the city. Like the one he came with. But this one was bit smaller it seems.

David was looking with anticipation. ''Maybe I'll have more sources to create with.'' He said to himself, and stayed there waiting.
