Chapter 4: Bury The Past
''Smith, your holiday for the next week has been granted. You requested to go 36B-8Y, correct?'' Prime asked.
I was just staring at the leaves gently falling off the trees into the water, ''That is correct, I also requested the construction of the New Armour prototype, and a new Neuron connector to handle the ships functions better, although they should be here soon'' I turned to look at him, barely any emotion on my face. ''Tomorrow you will have your first visit to the Ship, familiarize yourself with the bridge and layout,'' Cyb dematerialized, ''I am the Only living crewmember on board ain't I?'' I sipped my tea as I searched for answers, ''That... Is correct and incorrect. You are the only non-artificially created Organism on the Ship. The Soldiers are synthetic lifeforms, a Fusion of Robotics and Biology. They will be given the appearance of a Human in rest mode and the most efficient form during Combat mode,'' With that Cyb disappeared.
'I must find the truth, I must understand this History from another source, I confirmed my suspicion two weeks ago when I infiltrated 2 core networks of the AI systems that Govern the Republic, nowhere in their Ancient/Early History is there any mention of the Word 'Humankind' or 'Human', they only appear at the later stages of their History, around 2 Billion years ago.' I stood up and walked out of the lounge area, making my way towards the Cargo area.
''Mr Smith, the goods you wanted to be delivered are here, but the Armour... it is Highly classified and the power source has still to arrive...'' A Crab looking creature said to me as he gave me the list of goods. It was mostly Weapons, Armour, gadgets and more, for personal use of course. ''Put them In my Armoury in the Captain's Cabin, the Foodstuffs you can put them in the Cargo Hold of the ship.'' I grabbed the Processor and made my way to the medic bay to get the implant inserted. I have grown distant to everything over the past months, occasionally my old personality comes back to annoy me, but that only happens a few times per week. Now I am focused mostly on training and preparing for Launch day.

''Sir, your Shuttle is ready!'' My AI assistant said softly to wake me up, I just groaned and stood up, looking at the scars on the back of my Skull through the mirror. 'Sub-processor system has been set up, detecting 2 Admins, equal rights between the 2 admins... Set up complete... Personality Alpha Designated as Head Admin, Personality Bravo Designated as Sub-Admin... Analysing body structure... Ancient-Human detected, tuning body performance to maximum... tuning complete...'
I donned a tight jumpsuit and grabbed the small box next to my bed, taking out a small sphere, ''Time to take you with me on a trip...'' I smirked as I inserted the sphere into the suit of armour. Golden lines spread out from the sphere across the white armour, which looked like a Knight from the medieval ages but sci-fi. I entered the suit which fit like it was tailored for me.
*Systems online, DNA match complete... Powercore online... activating sub-routines... Suit operational*
I walked out of my room through the compound, 'Be nicer, and stop wearing the armour inside!' My old personality complained, 'Shut up, who cares about it?!? You and I both know that this trip will decide our next course of Action.' I ignored him for the rest of the walk. ''Sir, the travel time is approximately 4 Days as it is located in another Galaxy Cluster, please relax as we travel.'' A waiter said to me as I boarded the Shuttle.
I mostly checked Inter-Universal News, about the Black Death invading Multiple galaxies at the outer rims. Some rebellions being squashed, etc. The basics. The 4 day trip towards 36B-8Y was mostly smooth besides that.
''We have arrived sir! Please check your right.'' The Captain announced over the intercom. What comes into view was an old and desolate planet. Ruined cities and sand cover the surface, while a Broken down station orbits around it. The star also reaching the end of its life, ''Land the ship on the former Capital, close to the Library.'' I walked to the Exit as we approached the surface.
''Please be careful, you never know what scum lives on these abandoned colonies...'' He gave me a warning just as I stepped out of the Shuttle. The armour around my arm folded back causing my arm to be exposed to the elements. It didn't hurt as I grabbed some sand from the ground, letting it glide out of my hand, ''I am home...'' I tear rolled from my cheek as I looked at the Familiar Signs and letters on the streets. Although slightly divergent from Original English I know, it is still very similar. I walked these streets for hours, making me feel connected to a civilization from long ago.
When the sun was setting did I finally proceed to enter the library, in the centre of the Building a Statue of the Earth was standing, mostly worn down due to erosion. 'He who connects the Commonwealth of old Shall know the Commonwealth of now...' The scripture in the Archive said, thus I connected the Old nations of Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom. The Sphere immediately reacted and started to open up, in it was an arm, holding an old Hologram projector. A Woman who looked just like any normal human being appeared.
''Those who know of the Commonwealth of old are those with knowledge, yet knowledge which is yet to be completed. I hold all information until the connection between me and the Capitol is/was severed. What is it that you seek to know.'' She held open her palm, which projected the History of Humanity from the Very start, its beginning point being none other than 10,000 BC!
I watched as we evolved from Apes to Industrialized Societies into the Information era, the era I was left in. Soon it showed the World Uniting under a new United Nations, exploring the stars and making colonies, spreading Democracy and rights. For Hundreds of years, we expanded without problems, owning the entire Milkyway. It was then that a group of scientists discovered the Hyper-Drive by accident. The more I watched the deeper the frown on my forehead...
