Chapter 3 - Chapter 1: The Beginning ----------------------------------

"Yena, did the last three land yet?"

"They're expected to any minute now."

"Is that what the system says?"

"No, but Xander, you do know that my calculations are far more reliable than a stupid system."

"Hey, watch what you're calling stupid, we're alive because of this system."

"Zico, we're alive because of our affinity for Chrysalis, without that we would've been stranded on Earth waiting for an asteroid."

"Shut up already, Yena's right anyway 3 pods were caught in the radar, even the system updated itself."

"Wow and I seriously trusted this system."

"Go out and explain the situation to them. I'll make the preparations for the Affinity Test."

"Are you sure about doing that so soon, it's just been 2 days since landing, everyone must be tired?"

"The sooner the better, the Manwols must've sensed our presence by now."

------------------------------------------------------------------

"Zico, (panting) wait for me..."

"Why are you so slow? It's not like we're having to travel across the whole planet."

"I chose developing my brain over my body, so some physical aspects are indeed lacking."

"Do you always have to speak in that weird way, it sends chills down my spine."

"I would've argued that the sensation you referred to as chills was very poorly described, but for now focus on getting the children out. Please don't tell me you forgot the key."

"Umm, should I run and go get it back?"

"Leaving me here alone, you want me to become Manwol fodder, I obviously anticipated your stupidity and brought a spare key."

"You could have just given me the key instead of saying so much..."

"Yeah, and miss a chance to lecture you, like that's ever gonna happen."

"Whatever.... "

Zico opened the pods using the key.

The children woke up in about 5 minutes and were briefed about the situation.

Though hard to believe, the surroundings were proof, and most children usually accepted reality within a few hours.
