Chapter 1:Where am I now?
The familiar feeling of wind is rushing past me at terminal velocity. "Why can't I just appear on the ground instead of sub orbit?" I should explain what is going on here. I'm a traveller but not as you may think, I travel through dimensions. Do I have a choice of where I go? No but I do get the choice of when I go. Seeing as I have a few minutes I should get accustomed to myself let's see body, hair, legs, arm and robotic arm (I'll explain later). Seems all in order.
You are most probably wondering on how I'm going to survive the fall; well with me travelling a lot I have gained some abilities for example I can walk away from a missile to the face with only a chipped tooth due to hardened skin and fast regenerating skin. I also have heightened senses and reflexes than for an average person would have. With all the different parts I have on me you could call me a half-robot if you could see me.
"Suzie could you find where we are and download need to know information while we crash land?" "Yes sir" the feminine synthesized voice rings out in my head. "thanks love". I should introduce you to my friend from the start of my 'little' adventure, my AI companion 'Suzie'.
"There are a few notices I should tell you after we, ahem, 'land' sir". "yeah very funny, just prepare for impact." As I start to see more details of the ground below me. So time to plan the landing with as much flair as possible, so if I do a backflip and land on my feet I would only get minor injuries which would heal almost instantly. I executed the manoeuvre perfectly with a flawless 10 point landing. "you're getting better at this landing business sir" Suzie chuckled lightly. "yeah yeah laugh it up Suzie. You would think after so long I would get better at something. Anyway what are the important notices you wanted to tell me?"
"first things first; the information you need is ready for download.
"Great once I have finished with end-flight checks you can download the info, what is the second thing?"
"Secondly AIs especially unshackled ones are banned on because of an incident that happened to one of the races that inhabit this universe."
"So we need to figure out a plan for that, anything else"
"I'm still figuring out where we are so I'll get back to you."
Ok then. Let me see if my inventory compressor still works. It does seem to be at 100% so let me check my weapons first of my twin pistols: Cerberus weighted at the front to help against recoil and unlimited ammo with no need to reload due to 'magic' I don't understand. Then there is my heavy weapon a Minigun which I call Sasha it works in the same vein of my twin pistols Infinite ammo and no need to reload. I also have a melee weapon which is a Katana; it is made with Reinforced alloy which allows me to cut through most things. Now for the crash course on the universe and its recent history
"Suzie could you start the download please."
"Yes sir prepare for the download"
I felt the buzz of the crash course of information going into my brain, the council races, quarians and the geth, batarians and humanity.
I should have an appearance for this journey. I think I should use ankle length trench coat over my casual clothing which consists of jeans and a t-shirt and to finish the look I should have my umbrella which has a black and white alternate pattern.
"Suzie do you have name of the planet we are on?"
"Yes sir I have a name"
"And what is it?"
"This planet is known as Eden prime."
"Why do I have a feeling of dread right now?"
"You always have a feeling of dread sir."
