With a roar that shook the earth below, the humans descended from the heavens in their fire-breathing vessel. Steel met rock and the massive rockets of the Vagabond switched off one final time. The inhabitants of the ship were the first humans to arrive upon the life-bearing planet. The crew had orbited the cosmos for the past thousands of years at near light-speed. Generations had passed, less generations than there would have been had they traveled at a slower pace yet still, the crew were more than pleased to be of the Landers, that long-prophesied generation that would form the infrastructure of the great planetary civilisation to come. There were countless ships like the Vagabond, orbiting the cosmos at various speeds, yet the Vagabond was special: it had arrived first. What’s more, the ship’s destination had always been this planet, a solid rock harbouring a plethora of wildlife. The ship had passed many a life-bearing planet throughout its eternal orbit yet had never stopped: they couldn’t have. Long ago, their trajectory had been prearranged and preordained with with the inhuman, artificial, accuracy of a Major, a quasi-omnipotent A.I..
Majors were so incomprehensibly large in scope and omnipotence that, to a mere puny human, they might as well be Gods. And so, once the Vagabond’s course had been set all those years ago, it had been sent on its merry ride with no possible alterations to their chosen path, their destiny.
Then again, why would they have wanted to? This planet had always been their destination and was, after all, special. It was their origin, the very cradle of humanity, the place in which it had all had started, eons ago, in that now distant year of 2065… The Vagabond - after millennia spent amongst the stars - had finally reached Earth. There was a small problem though, a little hiccup in the plan, nothing substantial, nothing to worry about. Nothing… Unless one counted the presence of another sentient life as something worthy of notice. As the crew of the Vagabond were about to find out, they were now aliens on, from, of and to their own planet. They were, in customary human fashion, many things – only one of which was wholly unprepared. ___ @Danielandangel
