I wake up with a start in a pitch black bedroom. I pull the blanket's off my chest and stand. The floor is cold on my bare feet and I hear the rhythmical whir of the fan. I open the door and walk out the room following the voices I hear. There is light around the corner so I turn the corner entering a big room. It reminds me of a living room and a large house combined. All the survivors of our first ship are here along with more of the 400 who had taken different ship's. The room is really large being that it houses 290 of us. I pass a table with a group of little kids sitting around it. "Sol there you are!" Li says wading through the crowd. I follow him to a table where Alyssa,Lucas,Hailey, and Santiago sit. "You finally woke up." Santiago says laughing. "Yeah." I mumble still tired.
"Well your uncle took us here it's a giant compound basically that is built into a mountain." Li explains. "Nice." I say. "Yea he literally got some weapon master's to bring us to the room's." Lucas says laughing. "I woke up and was like where am I" Hailey laugh's. Everyone has changed into other clothes. "There's clothes in the closets." Hailey says reading my mind. "Oh cool." I reply. Alyssa is wearing a blue t-shirt and shorts . She catches me staring and smiles. I smile back my face getting hot. "I think I'm gonna change." I say standing. "Oh, OK don't get lost." Lucas says grinning. I laugh and say "I'll try not to bro." I walk back to my room and change into regular people clothes. Then i go into the bathroom and brush my teeth.
When I get back outside my room I see Phillip walking out his on the other side of the hallway. He nods at me then walks back into the main room. I follow but go to the same table I was at before. Everyone is still there except for Li of course. "Your back." Lucas says. "Yep." I reply sitting. "Ok what is a weapon master?" I ask. "Basically these spec ops guys that can literally create weapons out of thin air." Alyssa says. "Like your uncle." Hailey says. Li walks up with five cans of coca cola. We all take one. I drink some of mine then remember how long it's been since I had soda. I drink it down slowly savoring the bubbly drink.
"I haven't had this in forever." Li says chugging his . Li sits down in his seat to my left. Hailey is on my right side and Lucas is in front of her. Santiago to his right and Alyssa in front of Li. "That's easily one thing I missed from earth." Lucas says crushing his can with his hands. "Yea, how old are you?" I ask Lucas. He pauses then says "Fifteen". I had just turned 14 a month before so I felt young. "I just turned 14." I say. "I'm the same." Santiago says. "Well I guess me and Lucas are the oldest." Hailey says"I'm fifteen too."
That whole night we stayed up talking about near everything from aliens to Christmas presents. When I go back to my room I collapse in my bed and have a nicer dream. This time I'm flying through the air above Denver. I see a girl with dark brown hair floating above a building. When I fly closer she disappears. I wake up shortly after. The room is brightly lighted making me cover my eyes. "Time to train Sol." my uncle says from the door throwing a black and grey suit on the floor "Suit up." When he walks away I rub my eyes and yawn as I put on the black and grey suit. It fits comfy .
i walk into the bathroom and wash my face then brush my teeth. After that I follow Phillip outside into the main room. "Aparently the training room is down that hallway." Phillip says as we reach the middle of the main room. There is a door at the far end of the room. Me and Phillip walk through the doors into the training room.
