PROTOGEN ( NEW CIVILIZATION)

Part 5--- THE BEGINNING OF A NEW LIFE---

When the spaceship crashed on a planet called BIOFLAME—a name that struck me as strange—I could only focus on one thing: Did I survive?

Location: Refuge

Time: Unknown

Ouch. Everything hurt, from my head to my toes. I didn't have the strength to get up. My head pounded from the impact when I crashed. My body was covered in bruises. I could barely open my eyes. I heard a variety of noises—buzzing like lightbulbs, and voices talking in the background. It was all so strange. I managed to open my eyes and realized I was in some kind of shelter. Wires were attached to me, along with medical equipment. What did they do to me? I wasn't sure, and I didn't care. Slowly, I got out of bed, even though my entire body ached. My vision was blurry from lying down too long. As I sat up, I heard footsteps approaching the door. The light blinded me as it opened, and two figures walked in, their glowing eyes staring at me in surprise. There were two of them.

One of them spoke.

"???: You're awake! I didn't think you'd wake up."

"Amar: Who are you? What am I doing here?"

"???: Calm down, don't get too worked up."

The other figure chimed in.

"???: I didn't think the experiment would work."

"Amar: What experiment?"

"???: Can you tell us your name?"

"Amar: Amar."

"???: Amar? Never heard that name before. Have you?"

"Amar: Who are you?"

"???: I'm C01Y, or Cory. And this is DA1L, or Dail."

"Amar: Okay...? What are you, really?"

"Cory: We're doctors."

"Amar: No, I mean, what are you? A robot or something?"

"Cory: I'll explain later. First, let's talk about where you're from and why you're here."

"Amar: I'm from Earth. My planet was invaded by aliens like you a few days ago."

There was a long silence between them.

"Cory: Okay...?"

"Dail: How are you feeling?"

"Amar: Everything hurts—from head to toe."

"Cory: I didn't think you'd survive the crash. You're lucky. Are you hungry?"

"Amar: Yes, I haven't eaten in days."

"Cory: Dail, go get him some food."

"Dail: Now?"

"Cory: Yes, now."

"Dail: Alright, I'm going."

Dail left the room.

"Cory: So, you're human, then?"

"Amar: Yes."

"Cory: Can I ask you a few questions?"

"Amar: Sure."

"Cory: First question—what was life like for you on Earth?"

"Amar: I lived a normal life."

"Cory: Second question—did you have a family?"

"Amar: Yes."

"Cory: Third question—you said someone attacked Earth. Who were they?"
