"First thing, who am I? Secondly, who are you guys? Thirdly, why can't I breathe when I go outside?" A boy asked. Everyone else looked at him in confusion, then proceeded to look at each other. Anyone could see that they wanted answers to the same questions the boy was asking.
"Why is he sleeping at a time like this?" A girl pointed to Chris who was still on the floor sleeping soundly. "Maybe he knows where we are, should we wake him up?" Another boy asked and the others agreed.
"Five more minutes." Chris mumbled as one girl tried to wake up by shaking him. "No, we need answers and you might have them." The girl responded as she was shaking him some more. "What do you mean, Stacy?" Chris asked the girl as he opened his eyes to see who was waking him up. "Oh so that's my name." Stacy replied.
"Of course that's your name, what else could it be?" Chris asked, sitting up, and Stacy replied by shrugging her shoulders. "Dude do you know who we are and where we are because none of us can remember anything?!" One guy asked in a panicked voice.
"That's weird, how can none of you remember that we had to run away from our planet because our leader was corrupt?" Chris asked them in a very calm manner. "Wait how long were we sleeping for?" Chris starts panicking when he realises that everyone is taller. He quickly scrambled to the control panel and checked the travel time.
*Travel Time: 6 years (Volcanian Years)*
"Wow so we are all 15 now." Chris mumbled to himself as he was thinking of all the things that he would have to tell the group of teenagers with him everything they no longer know.
"Ok so everyone, I'm gonna answer your questions now so all of you, one by one, ask your questions."
**After the night passes**
"So did I answer everyone's questions?" Everyone nodded as one hand went up. "Yes, Shawn?" He asked his question quite panicked "Now that we are on Earth, how do we get home? If we even have a home to go back to that is."
It seemed like he wasn't the only one thinking that because after he said that everyone started murmuring. "Calm down everyone. I'm sure we can find help on this planet. Hey they kind of look like us, except the tails and the oxygen thing of course." Chris told everyone as he saw a human passing by. Shawn panicked "From what you told us, that's toxic to us isn't it?!" Chris looked at him and nodded. Everyone looked panicked.
"Calm down everyone. I'm sure that there should be rebreathers in this ship, I'm just not sure how many there are. James and Jasmyn, you two have to have rebreathers because you are the smartest of all of us. Hopefully I was right on you guys ending up with the genius trait?" Chris was searching for rebreathers then he looked back at James then Jasmyn.
"Excuse me, but how can we even get traits when we just woke up from being basically drugged for six years. We were forced to sleep throughout that phase. Do you know that that phase determines your job in society? It is the highest level in the smart trait group because the people with the genius trait end up being the scientists and reseachers because they can crack big formulas. Do you think we can build a device that provides you with arsine that is recycled from your breath?" James ranted while Chris was still searching for rebreathers. "Are you going to answer me?" James asked Chris as he stood up with 5 rebreathers.
"Well considering you just explained how they work I would say I was right that you guys would get the genius trait." Chris answered after throwing 3 of the rebreathers to Jasmyn and James. "Those are just in case you need to go out to experiment on the air here. The third one is for your experiments." Chris said.
