Seth obliged, and beamed aboard the rediculously massive ship, in too much awe of the ship itself to say anything. He simply followed his grandfather in a daze, unable to take in everything.

"Alright, this seems to be a super-advanced simulation. Unlike with most virtual realities I am not getting any particle flare.." Matry announced as he waved his hand in-front of his face. "Whatever computer is getting controlling this must be massive AND advanced." He said as he turned around, no one seemed to notice the Warden which was currently taking readings of everything. "Seth, go and ask try to interact with one of those..people, I need to take some tests." Matry ordered, standing to his feet and looking at the technology on and around him.

The cafeteria happened to be serving chili on that day.

(Couldn't think of anything else to post.)

Seth nodded, and walked over to them, asking after a bit of a while,"Um...Wh-Who are you?"

"I'm Sgt. Tam. Now let's go, cadet. Move your ass along! Just because you're here on training doesn't mean you can hog up the mess hall line!" the cafeteria worker replied.

"Alright, this is very much a simulation, the only thing I can think of to get out of it, is to play along." Matry whispered to everyone. "I suggest, we get some lunch." He smiled as he walked towards the line and got some of his own grub to eat, sitting back down at the table they had appeared next to.

"Er, right!" He said, taking the bowl of chilli, and moving along. He asked the names of a few other sim-people, and what was going on as well.

That's when it happened as the simulation advanced. There was a huge shake in the ship... The familiar feeling of bombardment. Of course, Felicity was huge. It was probably just this sector shaking, because artillery couldn't effect the entire size of Felicity....

Unless the enemy ship was as big, or bigger, than Felicity.

Sirens began to blare throughout the messhall as people made their ways to one of the four exits of the room. Here and there, superior officers were yelling, "Get to your stations! This is not a drill!"

The soldiers could be heard talking as they passed occasionally. Mummers were usually along the lines of, "Aren't you glad we're not part of a fighter squad?"

"Move, it appears that the ship is under attack, we need to find the closest ranking soldier and ask how we can help." Matry exclaimed, for a slight second he forgot that they were in a simulation things were so real. Moving towards someone who looked in charge he frowned slightly. "We're slightly confused on where to go.." He said, knowing that the man would most likely be angered but would hopefully direct them.

The soldier looked at the simulators like they were dumb for a moment. "Seriously? GET TO THE VIRTUAL CANNON ROOM! RIGHT FUCKING NOW! WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR THIS!"

Shrugging slightly and following the other groups of people to where he hoped was the cannon room Matry dragged along a few of his comrades.

The room was lined with... advanced computer consoles. Each console rested on a long desk. And in front of each console were a pair of red glasses.

Putting on the glasses Matry blinked a few times as a hud appeared, minor amounts few knowledge flitted across his mind as the glasses instructed him how they worked, it was mainly a thinking process. You move your eyes to look around and you think to shoot to shoot. Seeing hundreds of enemy fighters craft incoming labeled as hostile Matry started shooting, trying very hard to pay attention to the massive thing in the distance.

The enemy fighters alone were the size of what the Archive would know as capitals. Each were unmanned. Each were clearly fighters. And each were bombarding into the then-running shields of Felicity.... But the enemy's ship? It was big. Bigger than big. It was.... The size of a dimension...

At the time of this virtual reality simulation, Felicity wasn't in space. It was outside the dimensional plane, floating in the white void.

"..." Pretty much summed up Matry's entire thought-storm at the moment, firing as much as he could at the enemy "Fighters."

And suddenly, it happened. Those in the virtual reality state were brought back to the VR room, away from the illusions. But as they faded between virtual reality and real life, they would hear the words of a woman clear-as-day in whatever language they best understood.

"This is how we fell. We hated our enemy. It was our downfall."

"If there was a species capable of creating such a large..ship. Then I think we've figured out what happened to Felicity's original inhabitants. Terrifying." Matry said with a frown on his face.

"Felicity, you appear intelligent, can you communicate in a more formal manner, through a hologram or something akin to that?" Matry asked the air around him, hoping the ship would understand.

Nothing....

Or maybe there was something. A flicker of life. The ship was remembering how to talk and walk in a hologram form, accessing its AI Program which incorporated portions of the massive computer database into a single, mobile terminal. And she appeared before them. She was a young woman of maybe eighteen with long, orange hair and a tan skin, her form bare.

"I am Felicity," she said. "What do you want to know?"

"Everything, although I doubt that's possible within a short time frame. For starters, we'd like to know the history of your people.. In detail please." Matry replied, setting his own visors to record.

Felicity proceeded to explain a brief history of her people. It took about an hour to explain.
