Drifting alone is a section of what once was one of humanity’s most storied and elite starships. Though now not much was left to show anyone that it was anything less than another piece of metal in this solar system. 

Suddenly one of the few remaining sensors came to life. An array extended from the hull then rotated until it could find what it had been looking for over the long years. Inside the dilapidated hull many many systems came online. 

Inside was the remains of the medical bay at some stage a projectile had torn through it leaving the compartment in disarray. Off to the side are two capsules and through the clear glass both a young boy and girl can be seen in stasis. For the first time after the long years the state of the capsule 's inhabitants had changed.

To the side a screen began to display information.

After the two were readied, their capsules moved through the floor that had opened up with great effort. The screeching of the metal had to be imagined though as the ship had no atmosphere. The capsules were floated down through multiple bulkheads and some areas had holes that the darkness of space could be seen past. They ended up in a dark room with drop pods lined up along the wall. Much like the rest of the ship this compartment also sported its fair share of damage however there were still a few intact pods. Two of the pods opened and accepted their new occupants. 

On the exterior of the ship two doors opened followed by the departure of the two pods. Small blue flames could be seen distancing themselves from the wreckage heading towards a distant planet that the wreckage had been passing by.

The sensor array on the ship seemed to be tracking the pods as if reluctant to look away. Onboard the screen showed two lines of text.

Afterwards the remains of a once storied ship lost power for the last time.
