“I think the ironic thing about this is that if I would have stayed on Earth, I would have lived longer. Traveling here did nothing for me or for science. The ship would have eventually entered Earth’s orbit. But that does beg the question, what will the ship do once it does arrive?”
“The ship will do as programmed, it will harvest the dominate life on the planet, and send it back home,” Yapchanyk replied.
“But it’s full.”
“The ship doesn’t care. It’s programmed to harvest and transport. It will continue in its mission until it runs out of power or something stops it. And the only thing I know that will stop it is an asteroid.”
“Tell me this though, in your bible the ark was created to save people from a mythical flood. If this really is the ark, where is Noah? Where are the people God intended to save?”
“They have been sent to our home,” Yapchanyk replied. “Until the time is right to bring them back. A time when sin has been wiped from the face of the Earth.”
“Why would an alien civilization give a fuck about human sin?”
“Why would your human culture allow itself to be destroyed?”
“We’re not destroying the Earth, you are!” Dr. Mueller barked back.
“No, you and your kind destroyed the Earth long ago. Our culture will reset yours back to the way it used to be. Before you allowed sin into your lives,” Yapchanyk said.
“So what about me? How do I fit into your utopian culture? Will I be reborn?”
“That is up to your new master, I have no control over his decisions.”
“My new master?” Dr. Mueller asked. “You mean the Devil?”
“It’s been a pleasure speaking with you doctor. I hope I have answered your questions to the best of my ability. Your oxygen supply system has stopped working and you will soon be dead. I hope you were satisfied with the findings of your experiment, and I wish you safe passage into your next journey.”
The doctor’s vision began to blur as the carbon monoxide overtook his system. He didn’t see if Yapchanyk stayed with him until death as he became more disoriented as the neared his end. After two minutes he was unconscious, and after six minutes he was dead. His body floating inside a drone, inside an asteroid called 2120 Titus.
The End
