They assigned us rooms and sent us to them, probably so we could process everything they told us. But how do you process something like this? Realizing you are one of the only humans left in existence… it’s a lot to take in. I did say I didn’t leave anyone behind when I left to come to this new galaxy. But still. All those people… I knew I wouldn’t see those people, but I had thought earth would just be full of new ones and would thrive, but now…

Over the next few days they kept us informed, according to them the planet we were floating above was uninhabited, and had oxygen. But there was life in this galaxy. I had expected that, I mean, we can’t be the only beings to exist. Those aliens… though I guess we were the aliens now, had an ambassador from each species, that basically oversee the whole galaxy. The scientists who ran this program were trying to get permission to settle the world. One of the species seemed to be for it. They knew what it was like to lose their home, their people. But it was being a rather difficult situation trying to convince the rest. But we couldn’t float in space forever… we needed solid ground.
