It was muffled at first, as if coming from another room. Slowly as she regained consciousness it grew into a sharp ringing thag couldn't be ignored. As she examined the room her situation became more and more peculiar. The escape pod was cylindrical in shape with passenger seats along the sides with a pilot seat at the front. It wasn't the escape pod that she found strange however but the company she shared inside. Two humans, one in the seat beside her [@Zelosse] and the other in the pilot seat [@Spriggs27], a scowl formed on her visage as she tried to lean away from the human beside her. A Kasi [@Ryonara] was also sitting beside her though its presence was met with less disdain. What's more she found herself sitting across from an Urhusasja [@Kalleth] and a beast of a machine [@Lucius Cypher]. "Hey, pilot!", Irisara called out, hoping to wake the others. Removing the safety restraints from over her torso she slowly made her way towards the front of the pod. Upon approach the control pad came back online along with the projection of the onboard AI. "Hello, ma'am. I was beginning to think none of you would wake up. I've been trying to wake you all for some time but you all failed to respond to my efforts. Are you alri-", the AI was cut off as Irisa shook the pilot awake. "Save it, what system are we currently in?", she asked before moving through the ship to wake every one up. "Wake up", her stern voice matched her eyes as she shook the human she was previously sitting by.

"We appear to be floating in the Daedalus System, home to four planets but no established colonies besides an abandoned mining colony. If you'd like I shall display the planetary scanner data on-screen for you"

"Do it", Irisa was more concerned with getting everyone up. Even though she couldn't remember, perhaps someone here did.

A buzzing nose rang beneath the haze, a pair of eyes slowly working their way open and into the waking world of a shuttering sound as the buzzing stopped and blared into a loud screech. The sound jarred the male awake and he was quickly thrust from his unconscious state and into the realization that a second pod was aloof. He quickly tore open his restraints and looked about the pod to find beside him an Azaali[@Silverpaw], and on his other side was a Halion[@Spriggs27], while across from him was a human girl[@Rekaigan], a female Qari[@Norschtalen], and an autonomous AI Unit[@InkIsDorian]. While Xi felt they weren't all inherently bad, he had his doubts about the Hallion, and in turn made sure to attempt to wake the others while neglecting that procedure with the Halion. While Xi was doing so, the screeching and buzzing noises finally ceased and Xi was met with a relieving tone.

"Sir. Systems have been normalized, you are finally awake. How are the.." The AI was cut off almost as soon as it began to speak once more after finishing it sub-routines and stabilizing it's faulty presence. "Where are we currently?" Xi spoke firmly and quickly, not wanting to waste a moment while assessing the pod's systems and data from the pilot seat. "It seems this life boat is currently floating through the Daedalus System. There are four planets, but none show any signs of past, present, or future colonization outside of an abandoned mining colony present on one of the planets." The AI stuttered a moment and then flickered in and out on the display projection. "I-I-I... WILL display the infoooormation now." The AI seemed to stutter and drag out as it's systems began to react again.

"Let me see all you have, upload it directly, I can't trust this AI's stability." Xi spoke with one last murmur before looking to the other bodies in the pod. "I will have to let them know our situation, if I can wake them."
