Chapter 16

It was another human of sorts his face of an older man and had a clean cut appearance. His eyes were black as coal and had sickly pale skin like none I seen before. I was glad to see another person and maybe he was nicer than the last ones I seen. His voice boomed In a monotone fashion." This is Leviathan 3 what is your status?"

I was quite intimidated by his volume but shot back at him immediately" My name is Daxxus I was born in Germany and grew up in America. And I want to know why I'm here?" He looks away from the room and talking in words I couldn't decipher. He looks back at me with wild eyes and finally started to explain what happened while I was in deep freeze.

"That cannot be Earth was destroyed 30 years ago when the core stopped spinning. The oceans and most of the continents caved in on their own weight and almost made our race extinct. The United States government had a ship built pre built and provided the transportation and housing for the colonization of Mars. After a few decades humanity thrived on the red planet and they are expanding and repopulating rapidly. They built two more ships and began to reach out further. We picked up the beacon faintly and couldn't ignore it. We didnt figure that there would be humans on such a backwater planet.

I was dumbstruck his words had confirmed that I didn't have a home to go to and everything just fell apart ghastly like shattered glass. I said in a weak tone trying to keep it together. " I'm so sorry about your people you sent down. But they shouldnt have hurt the local inhabitants. They wont harm you they are gentle creatures."

He puts on a smirk and I tell him. "Well if your not here to take me home dont waste my time and just leave! Give me proof there is no Earth!!" He nods and the screens corner notified me of data transfer and sent me back to him. He says blankly and without much emotion. " I am willing to make a deal with you if you want 'your very lucky. You can have a fresh start without punishment for what you did. Daxxus I'm offering you your life back. I will give you all the time you need to decide and I hope you make the right choice."

His face fades and I'm left with a black screen. I turn my head at the ponies behind me. They were concerned about the ruckus I was making Twilight asked in a cautious manner. " What that another one like you Dax?" I nod and she hits me with another question. " What is going to happen now? Are you going to leave with them?" I didnt say anything back and silently walked out of the cabin.

I walk towards the back and out a hatch that held a railing you could sit outside much like a caboose. I sat and pondered my situation. What was I going to do? Could I really trust them? I mean I killed them two people and they are just going to forget about it and set me up with a new life?"

I really wasn't liking this place too much but I didn't know what was in store for me. I just didn't belong here and now I had the chance to leave as well. My thoughts then turn to my adorable friend Fluttershy who's kindness knew no bounds. I would have gone crazy with all the others prodding in my business. She wouldn't be so intrusive and hardly talked at all.

I just continue to stare at the purple sky. The desert looked amazing at sunset. The stars shone even in dim light as the sun descended over the horizon. I just wanted to be alone and found solitude just looking at the sky.

The train clattered along loudly on route to Canterlot. Maybe I should just meet with Celestia and maybe she could shed light on the problem. She was a thousand years old after all I was told. I just wanted to make sense of it all. It seemed that when ever I got close to finding out what happened the more confused I became. Will It ever end I thought?
