Humanity? There is no humanity.
When we finally reached the stars, it was too late. Were late on couple of moments. Or billions of years.
There was unimaginable wars, unimaginable worlds, and unimaginable sacrifices. The stars turned into icy clumps of matter, planets, full of fire, resources from planets, satellites and asteroids, processing them and sending them into the unknown substance, for unknown purposes. Military fleets flying without purpose and order, fighting for unknown goal, dying for the love of nothing. We get on the battlefield, which was created not by humans, which are living not for their goals.
In 3 years after first contact, a brilliant scientist Yuri Grigoryev, who believe in equality of all, contacted with the nearest processing mechanism. As a first goodwill gesture, he indicated his location in relation to the nearest 5 pulsars and the coordinates of the Earth relative to them, saying that we come in peace. The answer was not long in coming. After 4,0147 seconds was recorded the enormous power of the pulse indicating the zero-crossing of a huge Armada towards the Sun. Was immediately sent a warning message to the homeland, but no response from there nobody got. Like any messages at all. For what he did among all of us, he got the name Judas.
After 2 days from the hour of the Apocalypse, the star that was our home and homeland, and all went out, what have confirmed the worst guesses: now, Earth, Sun, Humanity is history, history that no one remember except us.
Alien stars, alien planets, radiation, air pressure, limited resources. Billions of nuances that need to be taken into account to survive. Nuances, which we just didn't know. Mutations, infertility, schizophrenia and apathy became our main companions on the way to the end, until a group of stubborn scientists, using the achievements of Judas, hacked AI failed mining mechanism. By this they gave us a Great purpose.
Revenge.
Like any creature, cornered, we will take revenge, revenge for all.
Yes, we will leave, but the assembly of mechanisms (which was called "System") will know all the cruelty, cunning and power of our revenge. We will become disease, a virus which devours body from the inside, like a small virus that is capable of killing such a giant on an elephant. No matter what the losses of the System and its creators are, we're already dead.
All resources were thrown on creation of self-developing AI. Multiple intelligence has shown that mechanisms with out of order AI are more than enough. Lots of were killed victim to experiments and attempts to connect to control, defense, power of other systems. But their victim was not in vain, it gave us an conception of how to intercept control circuits, how to reprogram the modules, where to take energy for development, and in conclusion, we have a real chance for implementation and development. AI knowingly was made with different algorithms of development in replication, so enemy cannot calculate the algorithms of its operation, and therefore to choose a universal method of calculation of actions and counteraction. From the very first iterations he had to fight not only with the System, but also with it's own kind, so that in the end each of them could get the best algorithms and strategies that ensure the achievement of victory. We called it "PROJECT S.K.I.T."
We were dying, but we persevered to our goal. We had no choice.
