Daniel Miles's Story

(Sorry for taking forever, College work got in my way. Once we get the momentum going I should be able to maintain posting)

Gateway Station. One of the largest stations in the Galaxy. Home to so many people. And soon...it will be full of adventure, too.

The station was turning the "day" lights on, and the "night" lights off. The night lights were significantly less bright, and only came on when it was night time in the timezone of the Capital of the planet below. Not only did it save a ton of power, but it made it easier to have shipwide time.

Daniel fell out of bed as his alarm clock went off. Realizing he had slept in, he quickly grabbed a towel, and went for the showers before he missed them. As an obvious point of fact, being on a station meant limited water, so the showers in the station only operated during a certain period of time each morning so that it wouldn't waste water. Daniel was still adapting to this, instead of having a shower in his own apartment with his dad. He was still adjusting to a lot of things though.

In truth, everyone was. Humanity had only just made First Contact months ago, when the First Contact War ended. This meant new technologies, new cultures, and new prying eyes. Daniel was slow to trust most people. As he arrived, the water came on and he took his shower before someone else came looking for room.

Afterwards, Daniel returned to the apartment and began making himself breakfast. He noticed his father's stuff seemed to be gone already, like it was some mornings. Occasionally his father had to go in early. Daniel finished making breakfast and eating.

"Your going to be late" Digi reminded him from his Omni-Tool.

"No I am not Digi. You just remember to keep quiet during class. I don't want anyone to find out about you".

"I know what I am doing" the AI remarked. "I am self aware, after all".

"Yeah, and if we get caught we both get in massive trouble. Criminal trouble".

Digi minimized himself, and Danny finished eating. He quickly grabbed his bag, and made his way towards the school.

(For all intensive purposes, some people might want to have their first post end in the Afternoon, cause I am literally going to cover the schoolday in a single post)

(Also, we may begin!) (Sorry for the massive delay)

(Well, left Renegade 12 days to post. Now, it's my turn again)

Officer Miles was, once again, dealing with "politics". Some survey team sent by the council. While humans were learning about aliens, aliens were learning about humans. They were conducting examinations on humans as well. Nothing unethical, just standard species examination. What Miles did not like was the sample size. "The children should not be involved. We can't trust them".

"Not my call. Politicians say we play nice. Besides, I doubt they are going to try anything. I know your worrying about your son, but believe me, he will be fine" the station manager told him, looking over some files. "Now, the new arrivals will be here soon. I want you down at the docks to meet them with the other assigned officers".

As Miles began towards the docks, a voice called out to him. It was Rachel Reynolds. "Ah, Dr. Reynolds, it's good to see you again. And thanks for asking, we are doing fine..." He noted, before heading to his post....

-------------------------

"Game on" was the rallying call. Daniel, like any sane child, hated school, but he loved Zero-G Basketball. He played it well too, moving fast like a firecracker and strong like a bull. After that was his various classes. He did some covert messing around with his teachers. Mr. Carmicheal, his computers teacher, was especially annoying. He had Digi put some rather....unique....photos on his computer.

Afterwards, he made his way towards the park. He figured his dad wouldn't look for him there.
