[ WP ] Humans are in fact aliens on Earth having displaced all local primitive lifeforms . They erased all their pre-earth history in order to live guilt free lives . You make a discovery that will in no simple terms change the world .

Six long years of preparation. Eighteen months of searching through ancient manuscript fragments, slowly putting pieces of the puzzle together. Nearly shot three times following clues through the middle east. It has all led up to this. 
 
 Everything led to the mountain of Ararat. Ironically, the Biblical resting place of Noah's Ark was where our clues led us. We were n't really sure what we were looking for, but it was n't the Ark. There is apparently an unmapped cave in the mountain where a large number of ancient texts might be discovered. We are searching for the origins of humanity. 
 
 Nothing had prepared us for what we discover next. 
 
 Deep in a glacier, trapped below a hundred feet of solid ice, we find a passage. At the end of the passage is a narrow door. It looks like ancient timber at first. But when I reach out a hand and press it to the door, the door is warm and smooth. No, more than warm. Hot, burning hot. I try to pull my hand away to no avail. Instead, a tingling like intense static courses up my arm, gripping my hand and forcing it to stay pressed against the door. Then the door starts glowing with an intense, greenish light... 
 
 And unlike the burning current which now seems to be consuming my entire body, the door disappears. With the absence of something to lean on, I collapse forward into the dark doorway, landing on the hard floor with a thud. Instantly the door rematerializes. 
 
 And now I am alone and afraid. 
 
 The tingling subsides somewhat, leaving me limp and struggling to breathe. This is not Noah's Ark, is my first thought. 
 
 I manage to summon enough energy to raise my head from the cold metal on the floor. The walls are made of a similar material, which now begins to glow with pale yellow light. The passageway continues into fading blackness, but I notice doors on either side. Dragging my weak body, I stumble to my feet and cautiously walk up to the one on my left. I'm saved the gamble of touching it, though, as it disappears into the wall on approach. 
 
 Inside this door is a round room, containing what appears to be a fairly modern living room. Couches around the edges and a heavy-looking table in the middle. One wall looks to be nothing but an inky black void. I notice a pile of papers in the middle of the table and cross the room to study them. 
 
 I'm no expert, but I can still recognize my planet. There are diagrams of human anatomy, as well as sketches of what can only be space suits. Another sheet shows a floor plan of sorts. I ca n't read the writing but it appears to be the....thing... I'm standing inside. 
 
 It's a ship. A space ship, by the look of the incomprehensible engine room and sleek, aerodynamic design. 
 
 My head is spinning from trying to piece it all together when a deep voice fills the room. 
 
 `` Welcome back.'' 
 
 I whirl around. Where the void had been is now an intense white light that nearly blinds me. Flinching back, I shade my eyes with an arm and squint at the light. `` Back...?'' 
 
 `` Let me show you.'' I still ca n't see anything in the blinding light. Suddenly I'm dizzy. I manage to stumble to the nearest couch and collapse face down. My vision dissolves and I'm suddenly not in the ship anymore, I'm standing in an unfamiliar city street with fire raining from the sky. A fireball explodes against a nearby wall and the heat blisters my skin. With a yelp, I duck away and start running, running... 
 
 And I'm in another ship, with accelleration crushing my chest so I ca n't breathe... 
 
 The next thing I'm aware of is warm, sweet air in my lungs, with the chirping of birds and hum of insects rippling across a vast, green meadow bordered by fruit trees and flowering bushes. A young man stirs next to me. Our eyes meet and then take in the scene around us. 
 
 A deep voice, vaguely remembered as if from a dream, echoes across the meadow. 
 
 `` Become many, fill Earth and subdue it. And have in subjection the fish of the sea and the birds of the heavens and every creature of the earth. But remember, you are guardians, not masters.'' 
 
 I close my eyes, trying to recall where I've heard that voice before. 
 
 When I open them again, I'm lying on a couch with a bright light behind me. 
 
 `` Now do you remember?'' 
 
 I'm not sure. My head is spinning again. 
 
 `` Why is this planet ruined? What have you humans done to it?'' 
 
 This one I can answer. It's always been one of my biggest concerns. I sigh. `` Wars. Greed. Love of power. Love of control. Some of us try to change things but there's so much opposition to it.'' 
 
 `` So their gift of free will has again been abused.'' I nod assent and the voice seems to be able to see it. 
 
 `` So be it, they have been warned, but they never learn from history. In fact, this time they deliberately destroyed the histories they brought from before, to avoid the guilt of knowing they were responsible for their last home's destruction as well. They are like a virus, consuming everything they touch.'' A pause, then the voice goes on. `` I have an assignment for you.'' 
 
 Could have guessed this was coming. `` What is it?'' 
 
 `` Go and warn people. They have 40 days to change their ways and start taking care of their home and each other. After that, any not doing so will be destroyed, just like humanity's last planet.'' 
 
 A laugh escapes me. `` You serious? They'll kill me.'' 
 
 `` I will not allow it. Now go.'' 
 
 The visions still sorting themselves out in my head, I turn and head toward the door. What choice do I have?
