Kenny climbed down the ladder into the craft, David reached the main floor of the craft. "Kenny, I would like you to meet our new friends, Zan, Kol , Saara and Isha."

Kenny looks at the pleiadians with curiosity, taking in their majestic beauty and advanced technological blue suits.

They are from a different planet than ours.

"Are these the guys Gip was talking about?"

David stopped to think for a moment.

" Yeah you're right Kenny, Gip mentioned it outside the store, I owe Gip an apology."

Kenny nods. "Where are we going?"

David and Kenny take seats In the craft's pilot deck.

"We are going back to the facility."

David is cut off by Lexi's automated voice.

"The planetary research facility."

Zan piloting the craft under the water surface, passing other tall structures.

"What are these large building's, what were they used for?"

David looked in amazement at the sighting of thousands of buildings that ranged into the abyss. Lexi's automated voice spoke

" These buildings were once part of your great civilization, many, many years ago, each one of these buildings were built environmentally friendly, harnessing the power of the ether electromagnetic transference energy. And the buildings also collected rain water as a source for clean drinking water for the building.

David spoke out "from the cylindrical buildings on the tops?"

"Precisely the humans on this planet were very environmentally capable sustaining life for many years."

Zan pulls the craft in front of the entrance of the research facility.

Where he hit a sequence of electrodes to alter the craft's vibrational frequency so that the craft could move through the nanoparticles that made the wall solid to the outside unless the craft or a suit matched the frequency of the solids vibration so the craft moved through with ease.

Zan moved the craft into the port and stopped the engine. David climbed out of the craft and followed Isha, Kol,Saara out of the craft Zan climbed out last after Kenny. Lexi appeared making Kenny Jump back. "Woah!" Kenny looked to David.

"It's alright Kenny, this is Lexi."

Kenny looked at the blue light figure that appeared like she was in a floating walk towards him.

" Greeting Kenny I'm Lexxi."

"Follow me everyone to the main debriefing room." Lexxi turned and led the way towards the debriefing room.

Lexxi disappeared behind a door that opened automatically when the group approached. The hallway lit up a nice light blue, the clean surfaces of the floor the group's reflections clear as day.

They entered through another automatic door. That opened to a large corridor filled with mechanical boxes David had no comprehension of its complexity; the building itself was still a mystery to David.

The light turned on from a ball of source energy in the middle of the room emitting moving pictures.

"Are these people real?"

"They were David, many years ago, this is what they used to call documented video, video is like pictures that capture light through a lens and imprints them into data taking frames of time at 30 frames per second and laying them together to produce the image in a moment like this."

David scratches his head "so this is many years ago?"

"Correct, many years ago before the great flood this is how people existed."

Kenny looked at the screen, seeing people in clean and fancy clothes, advanced technology, advanced buildings and vehicles the world looked like nothing Kenny ever saw, all Kenny knew was the metal Stilted town and the sea.

"What happened to the planet?"

Lexxi appeared and said "the researchers of this facility miscalculated the atmospheric pressure, changing the atoms of the air molecules in the planetary system, this is why it's always raining the planet became a water planet"

Kenny watched as the display showed the city becoming flooded with water,as the water line reached the top of buildings and stopped they formed Housing in the cylindrical buildings first then Kenny saw how the Stilted city was slowly crafted over time.

Lexxi continued

" After that no one ever returned to this research facility till the Pleiadians made their acquaintance with me. I taught them our language and told them of our mistakes in the past."

Zan then nodded and said " we have been overlooking this process of the technology used on this planet. We have returned to reverse engineer the planet back to its habitual state. First by shutting down this atmosphere pressure altering device."

Isha looks at David, who has a look of confusion. "Will you help us David?"

David let a tear fall from his face. " Yes,I will help."

Kenny looked at Lexxi "is there any food down here?"

"Yes, follow me to the mess hall David, Kenny."

David and Kenny walked to the mess hall with Another emitted Lexxi and Kol followed them as well.

Along the way Kol used a device when he put a crystal in the middle It emitted a small screen showing the round planet they were on and how it was all cover in water till he zoomed in and on the top of the waters surface 1000 kilometers north on the mountains over the waters surface there is a small facility on the top of the mountain. This is where we will cut off the source of all this tragedy."

David questions. " How come none of us ever knew about all of this?"

Lexxi answered the question." The investors of this facility were not all government owned and because of this the government kept all knowledge of this facility and technological capabilities a top secret priority. The most rich and intellectual made a Arch for your race, its design was fluad, proving so when the vibrational Field manipulation systems malfunctioned, the ship exploded in the asteroid belt 329,115,316 to 478,713,186 km away from our current location 80 years 7 days 56 minutes and 20 seconds ago. This is the last recording on board the Arch." Lexxi played the last recorded message sent back to this facility.

Which was a loud recording of flight crew members screaming and arguing over the sensor relays and shields going down. " Hello this is Arch we pilot blue 1 we are not gonna make it, the ship is malfunctioning we didn't do enough pre flight tests to prepare us for this, our shields are taking heavy damage from the asteroid Field, our vibrational manipulation systems are malfunctioning for unknown reasons, it must of been damaged pre take off, we all predict our destruction in 10 minutes." The recording ended.

Lexxi walked through a metal door and it slid open for Kenny, David and Kol, the lights turned on in the corridor. The clean surfaces shining bright in the light, Lexxi showed them the trays, cups and utensils.

Then proceeded to lead the over to the food processing unit. "This is where you can select from our fine selection of space travel food. Which is freeze dried food contents I reprocess in this unit for your enjoyment."

Kenny asked "Is this the food the people from the videos are eating?"

Lexxi answered, "It is processed frozen foods from that time yes."

"Woah, that's gonna be fun to try."

David pushed a button for water melons and got a bowl of water melons, that smells good. David then put his cup into the cup dispensing port. And David pushed a button that was under a symbol of a black bean, black hot liquid poured into the cup followed by some white liquid and white crystal particles. David took the cup and asked questions after taking a sip. " Yum this is good, is this seaweed tea or what is it?"

"It's coffee. The workers here favored its chemical benefits in the workplace environment, caffeine is known to increase alertness. It works by blocking the effects of adenosine receptors at the same time releasing adrenaline in the system, adenosine is the chemical in your body that makes you tired."

David let half the Information pass by him as David enjoyed the Coffee and grabbed another cup."

Kenny ate what he chose, which was a chicken broth and lemonade. Kenny enjoyed his meal. At a table him and Kol

Sat at. David grabbed a seat with them before he ate "Kenny hold on one second let's give thanks for this place and new friends." David placed his hands in prayer.

"Thankyou to the whale god for helping us find these friends and the place and thank you for this food you helped guide us to as we thank thee for this wonderful blessing may we save your creation and undo the damage done to this planet, our home you created for us." Then David ate the watermelon which David enjoyed so much.

They ate till they were full, trying out the pasta and juices from the food processing unit. Lexxi enjoyed filling her duties after so long not being in use. Watching the humanoids eat,laugh and smile.she continued to show them old video clips from Lexxi's memory bank.

David asks,'' Do you keep records from people who were alive from the time?"

Lexxi answered "certainly who would you like to know?"

" My mother and father, I never knew who they were."

Lexxi " I could run your blood through a DNA analysis and see if there is a match on file."

David agrees. Lexxi says "follow me this way to the medical bay for the DNA analysis."

As David and Kenny got up to walk towards the medical bay Kol still followed in curiosity of the DNA analysis.

Kenny asked David. " You never knew your mom and dad?"

David replied "no I did not, I was a street kid in the stilted city like you, till I was recruited by a guy named Gregory, Henry's best friend they're friendship went all the way back to the start of fishing Zone C, Gregory was the only father figure I ever knew he lived with me in the cylindrical housing that we call home till one day we sold fish at the stilted city and Gregory wanted to grab a drink at the bar when Gregory started to get drunk, Gregory then started to get very mouthy to the other bar patrons one night, one of the patrons decided to fight Gregory, Gregory's fighting was unmatched one on one but that night he was extra drunk and the three men beat Gregory so bad that his skull was caved in and Gregory choked on his blood to death while I sat and cried by his side." Kenny looked down at the clean floor to notice a few tears falling from David's face hitting the smooth sleek surface.

" I'm sorry David." Kenny Pat's David's back.

David stops and hugs Kenny, " I consider you and zone C my only Family Kenny that's why we must complete our mission to save our planet with the help of our friends." David looks to Kol who now shows him from his device how he is going to reverse engineer the weather device, into the form of a video David and Kenny watched how when they activate The pleiadians device the world's atmospheric pressure returns to normal then after the water levels are back normal how the pleiadians device will regulate the planets weather till it is fully functional on its own, reclaiming the planet world wide.

David is astonished with the video David nodded at Kenny who made eye contact with him at the end of the video. Kol nodded in agreement. " Now, you know,what we must do." David followed Lexxi into the medical bay.

"Sit on the table David." David did so taking a seat on the examination table. The room was lit up from the floor. Then one Service droid came out from the wall, taking a blood sample from David's finger.

"Running analysis."

"Match! Simone Willson , Jessica Wilson private investors in the planetary research facilities. Bringing up the last video recordings."

David's heart running. As he watches the screen show pictures of the identification of all the details of their life, Simone Wilson facility architect and founder of research laboratories, Jessica Wilson head research coordinator and head of meteorology and technology." David then watches the last recording of his mother and father,the video shows them at the Arch ramp entrance to the massive Craft.

They are blocked by security, David's father fights to try to get through with a crowd of scientists that didn't have an entryway to the ship, the guards open fire killing many and wounding David's father who barely escapes the tragic death of all his colleagues. Wounded Simone and David's mother make their way around the ship pulling the wires to a device out from the side of the ship before take off. The video ends and David is stunned by this video and shakes his head realizing that it was his family who caused the end of the world. David squeezed his hand together into a fist and spoke out in anger "I'm going to fix all of this." David got up and followed Lexxi and Kol then Kenny followed behind David. They walked the halls back to the docking port room.

David was quiet the whole walk back.

Looking at the facility in disgust.

They entered the room and the other pleiadians were in the craft waiting for David, Kenny and Kol to enter.

Kenny made his entrance Into the vehicle after watching David climb eagerly to the top and into the craft.

They climbed down the ladder into the main flight deck where David took his seat next to Zan who smiled at him this time. Saara greeted them all with a happy tone "Nice to see you all back." Kenny smiles at her and takes his seat next to Saara.

Zan Asked "we are all seated?"

Kenny replied "yes we are Zan."

Zan started the craft enabled the vibrational frequency field and they were able to drive the craft through the wall into the sea, which was extra dark so they turned on the night vision, allowing them to see through the dark stormy waters,the craft propelled its way through the dark ocean's abyss.
