The Lost and Forgotten

The Lost Diaries of Jacob Harding

It is the fifth day of the third month. The Atlantis military warned the people today. They tell us about a possible invasion. They claimed they have detected a large fleet moving towards Earth and are not slowing down. We have been warned that they will be here in 3 days.

No one here is too worried about this. We have had this happen before and nothing came of it. The day went on just like a normal day at the labs. I continued my research into Dark Matter. I am getting closer to building a Dark Matter engine for my Teleportation device. My research is all I have left in this world. All of my funding has been suspended by the council. They have been telling me only god should be in all places at once. I guess it is a concept I never understood.

I am getting a small spaceship tomorrow. I plan on swapping the Anti Matter engine out for Dark Matter. By all calculations the power output will be tenfold. The only problem I see it hiding that kind of power. I have no doubt they will detect a power surge that large. It looks like I will have to stall my tests for another time.

It is the sixth day of the third month. Its only good news today. The Atlantis fleets stood down today. The military has been in contact with this new alien presence. They say they want to have a peaceful relationship. Of course some people have there doubts. I feel confident nothing bad will happen. It never has in the past.

Besides; the best news for today. My contact in the military got his hands on a fighter. Sure it's out of date, but if I know anything about our space craft. We Atlanteans know how to build ships. It's how we got to earth in the first place. I replaced the engine today and got my new Teleportation device loaded in the back. I am hopeful that tomorrow will be the day I test the engines. If they work like it's suppose to. Then I will have made the first engine with a black hole at its core.

Furthermore, the Atlantis First Fleet has finished building there new flag ship. I was invited to see the Ascension Project take off on the eighth. I am still not too sure about that. The party is far north in the city and I want to run my tests on the fighter. I am thinking if I get up early. I might be able to do what if need to do and make it in time to see its takeoff.

It is the seventh day of the third month. Today I was working on getting power to the Teleportation device. Nothing went the way I wanted it to. The first time I connected the power. It started to glow when it was turned off. I managed to link it to the main computer. It seemed to keep it off for now. I will be running tests with in tomorrow. I think it has to do with the power source it is connected to. It makes sense. I time Teleportation device into a black hole. What could possibly go wrong, right?

Putting that aside. All tests passed for propulsion systems. It will be so much fun. I just know it will be the fastest fighter any one has ever seen. I took the weapon systems out to make a little more room for engine insulation. I am positive radiation will not be a problem now. I also upgraded the scanners to more of a modern day tech. It's always a good thing to have the ability to scan a planet.

Tomorrow after the launching of our new flag ship. I am hoping the council will grant me an audience again. I need to do my best to convince them. The ability to control time is fundamental to our next stage in technology. Honestly I don't know how I am going to use that as an excuse, but I will still try. I need my rest. I am going to get an early start, so I can make it to the launching on time.
