You bent your knees before pushing up and started to fall.
Granted, you fell up into the heavens.
The air thinned even as it got colder. At the edge of the atmosphere, you can see the clouds below as the curve of the world burned blue against the darkness of the heavens.
Before you, you can also see the primary satellite of your world between you and the sun casting a shadow. Beyond that, you can see eternity.
For a moment, you hang motionless between your world and the dark void of the heavens.
A silent and single moment, before you pushed your other body out of the realm of Dark Matter and Energy. The blunt bow of your dagger shaped hull parted the wispy thin atmosphere as your other body formed around you.
That was when "it" clicked, and you could SENSE all the myriad energies of the universe. The heavens was not dark. No, it was a thing of light and energy beyond your core body's senses.
More than that, you could now hear the words of your sisters with much more clarity.
Your navigation systems have conveniently set up a map of the star system you're in.
The sun was the center of the grid, there was an axis pointed "corewards" and "voidwards" or towards the core of the galaxy or out of the galaxy, while another went clockwise to counter-clockwise for the galactic rotation, and the last was relative to the sun, being up or down.
Each axis or line was divided into one hundred units to form a cube that was divided into eight smaller cubes that was divided into one hundred by one hundred by one hundred.
This was also when you discovered that you were... hungry. A novel sensation for you, the core body could eat but never had to.
You needed fuel to properly explore your star system or to go elsewhere... there was also that asteroid belt just a bit further out with those delicious metal ores and minerals. The only question... was which to go for first?
