[ WP ] A Distant Future in the Spacecraft Cemetary

Last thing you remember was as the craft's emergency lights began flashing and the sudden hypnagogic jerk that followed. You awaken to the waves crashing below your feet on the shore of a sandy beach. You wipe your right cheek off the sand and glance up. You gaze at the seagulls circling around the shoreline to pick up any aquatic life that may have washed up. The island seems deserted as you get up and search the shoreline for any survivors or items from the crash. Nothing. It's all gone. You make your way into the dense trees. The island's jungle is luscious; and full of life. The loud conversation among birds and other critters reminds you of your family. After they left for above, leaving the unclean behind on Earth. But you made the right choice. No, there is no regret. Your little girl is safe, and her smile makes you a little calmer as you navigate through the jungle in search for food. 
 
 Its getting dark and you have gotten only a few berries and couple nuts and enough wood to build a fire. You continue along the path hoping to score a rabbit perhaps. You make out a small cavern large enough to build a fire and stay for the night. Carrying your supplies, you settle down and notice something odd. The openings are far too artificial. The flooring is too smooth to be created naturally. Leaving your supplies down you make a fire and make a small torch out of several pieces of wood. You venture inside deeper and come across a narrow opening. You squeeze through and gaze up to be stunned immediately. An automated door lies ahead of you. 
 
 Eyes widened, you approach to touch it and it suddenly slides open. An automated voice speaks, *welcome human, face recognition is not functional and power levels are at 23 %, access to Section 3, 5 and 8 are denied. Please enjoy your visit* You stare blankly, surprised, but rather overjoyed to find some contact with your civilization. You enter the door to find a white room with a panel to the right hand side. You inspect the touch-screen carefully to see that there are two arrows pointing up and down. You press down and the automated voice speaks, *Human, prepare for submersion. Activating hydraulic systems, please wait..... Systems checked. Submerging now* The lights flicker a bit as the door closes and locks itself. A sense of panic re-emerges as you stare on each side of the room looking for an exit. The glass panel automatically lowers down and as the elevator lowers down, you stare through the glass walls at the containment below. 
 
 Your eyes widen as a sense of disappointment overshadows you. You stare with a dark impression of waste as the elevator descends to its level and opens. You made the right choice, in the end after all.
