Awoken

I reviewed the situation as I saw it. With there being no free cryopod, given I wasn't willing to commit murder, I was stuck taking the years trip to the destination system awake.


There was enough rations for this, provided I followed procedure and I spent most of my days tending to the garden and water reclamation systems.


I considered the irony, stuck in the most advanced spaceship ever, forced to live like a medieval peasant.


I took a deep breath, and tried the comm-unit to home.


Static.


...


I quickly reconsidered my earlier stance on murder, reaching a different conclusion.
