Chapter 1 - A new dawn
Somewhere deep in space far away from Earth, a huge metallic structure was blooming over a single planet. For 5 years lighting rays scorched its surface, huge needles pierced its core, every single rocks shifted from dead cold to melting inferno, unstoppable tempests of gas swirled from pole to pole. The most bliss and prized, the last wonder to date of human's civilization was at work. HOD, the first planet size space ship was terraforming a new dawn for humanity, Earth-II.
"100% percent of completion reached. Earth-II is now ready for colonization. Sending report to home." says Magnolias, one of HOD's AI that oversee the ship.
"Finally, we will see more humans. Don't take it too personal, but I got enough of you guys", says Captain Oro, chief and main engineer of the HOD.
The crew of the ship was floating in mid-air near Captain Oro as holographic torso mounted on little drones.
"Well, Captain Oro, if you ask me nicely I can lend you one of my beautiful puppies and tailor them for you" says humorously Jane, biologist specialist, creator of all living things on the planet.
"Don't listen to her Captain Oro! And Jane! Just keep your abomination for you! I nearly lost an eye because of them!" interrupts Nikos, master of all kind of infrastructures, best city planner of the universe.
"You tried to eat it!" answers Jane astonshied.
"Not just tried, and I puked! I hope your new creations will have a better taste, or we will ends up with the first vegan only planet." retorts Nikos.
"My mission was only to make a tailored wildlife to support the life cycle of the planet, not an all out food buffet for your own pleasure in your shady shelters, and neon orgies cities"
"Shady! Orgies! Don't talk about my first grade luxurious family housing suites like that! And my cities are the best of the universe! So gorgeous, you can fit so many humans in them. My cities can easily handle a peak flow of 1 billion of living humans, no holdup when human goes to work, or go to shop, or just take a walk, or..."
"or just take a shit." interrupts Mage, the AI specialist always hanging out with clones of his own brains floating in tubes, "Because a 1 billion peak of shit, is a lot of shit to handle!"
"Don't you dare talk about my cities like that!" answers furiously Nikos.
One last sleepy voice emerges from one of the drone.
"Your cities? Come on man... without my drones to built them, there would still be naught. Or maybe cities for little non-epileptic ants." finishes Soro, drone engineer. And like Mage he is helped by his brain's clone inside his centipede like drones.
"Just shut up all of you for the last damn time!" shout Captain Oro. "We just received a message from planet Earth. The first ship with settlers will arrive tomorrow from the artificial wormhole, and the following weeks will be declared as holidays, a celebration for Earth-II. So to be ready to welcome all this new blood, I require your presence at the capital city New Home for a party, Are you alright?"
"I will be there" says Jane
"Not like we have a choice" says Mage
"Alright Captain, Oh my Captain!" says Soro
"Tune it down Soro." says Captain Oro
"Wait, for the place of meeting i would like to propose a bar of my creation, just near the statue in memory of the dead during the last space war"
"Oh, i didn't though of that, damn i totally forgot how to live outside of the ship! Alright everyone we will meet at... What's the name of the bar Nikos?"
"Oh, excuse me. It's name is -In Memory-"
