Coldness. That's the first thought that enters my mind. Voices. The second thought is that I can't understand their language but I could also tell that there are a few voices atleast.

As the stasis pod finishes it's rejuvenation process I finally open my eyes for the first time in 65 million years to see what I think is a hallucination. I mean, who would think that it's normal to be saved by a 6-foot turtle with a purple mask and oversized glasses. I rubbed my eyes but it's still there, and speaking to me in a worried tone? My third thought is panic that everything I sacrificed for all went horribly wrong.

'I need answers.' I think to muself as I shake the fatigue from my head and tried to step out of the stasis pod. Only to stumble directly into the surprisingly strong arms of the humanoid turtle. His worry is getting increasingly noticeable but I just gently push away from him and give him a warm smile. I force my rubbery legs to hold my weight as I walk towards the center of the dark circular room.

As I step onto the slightly elevated crescent shaped platform, I waited for the DNA sequences to finish registering me, which doesn't take long. The whole room started to light up and a control consul slowly rises form the outer edge of the platform with me in the center.

The room itself has an advanced air to it. With multiple big glowing blue crystals the size of my forearm lighting up the room. Behind me is four stasis pods, two of which don't even look like they were used and the one I stepped out of looks like it was half torn apart. Along the walls in front of me hung large holographic screens. They are displaying everything that has happened on earth since the dinosaurs went extinct, and the outlines of my people's project to bring life back to this planet.

I quickly study the info and with a sigh of relief I realize that all the work that my kind has put into this dieing planet truly paid off. There is not only sentient human life, but there were millions of different kinds of life forms roaming this big blue rock. We have successfully revived a dieing planet!

Although, upon further investigation it turns out we might have made the human race a bit to adaptive. Since they are drastically overpopulating and polluting the planet.

Realizing that I woke up 5 thousand years late, I start digging for a bit more info about what happened to my people only to find out that it's all been erased. There are even gaps in the history of the planet in the past three thousand years leaving very little information about humanity. 'Someone has been naughty...' I couldn't help but think to myself as I'm getting frustrated about the lack of info. I couldn't even remember much from before I stepped into the pod...

But I'm going to have to leave all that for later since I have a bigger problem on my hands. I guess I need to deal with what I'm now realizing are four giant worrier turtles surrounding me with melee weapons in their hands, and the one in the red mask looks really pissed off.

Hey there readers!

Just putting this out there, I'll try to put out as many chapters as I can, but bare with me if I miss a bit here and there as life can be unpredictable. Also if u notice any discrepancies in my writing (as I like to use voice to text) please let me know in a paragraph comment and I normally edit my chapters. Anyways I hope you all enjoy my first book.
