1. Chapter 1

Kronos pow

Cold sweat was running down my face as the cryo pod activated the thaw, it woke me up with damn noises that sounded like a meat grinder. So they found a cure huh, i said as i walked out of the pod that kept people like me alive from the J sickness for 10 years. I looked in the mirror and said, I haven't aged a bit. He looked around saw the that this was not earth but a ship orbiting a blue sun, he found monitor near window and it read( current stardate 2489*5*14) kronos face becomes filled with shock, what the hell! As soon as I said that the ship's a.i patched to the monitor. Hello my name is mino 779, have a nice sleep kronos l kerr. Krono's shouted, where in god's name am I! mino responded, you are in the krishna star system around the ninth planet morning star in it's asteroid belt with the other colonists. Kronos took a deep breath and asked, other colonists? I thought we were in cryostasis for ten years in paris, france.

That is understandable, 5 years into cryosleep with the other patients the third world war started after a russian ship disappeared in u.s territory luckily there was no nuclear strikes after the iraqi misfire two years before. The reason being after the ten years was because the new desmond's stopped spreading in 2395 but the infected showed no signs of recovery so they still worked on the cure until 2440. The reason a cure was discovered after centuries from world war three was because the desmonds virus just stopped spreading in 2056 and most research to develop a cure before and during the war was all destroyed by a global blackout of the energy grids and was destroyed by an unknown group. I tried to figure how we survived 4 hundred in deep space in pods that were meant to only function for just 1 hundred years, 50 more if they updated the software during the time we were under and according to historical records that were made literally after the first colony in the andromeda galaxy in 2302 we should have died by then. Oh my god.

hope you enjoyed this i am working the first chapter.
