Getting inside the hibernation pod, she waited for her turn for launch, granted, by the time she would’ve launched, she should already asleep. Carefully, she pondered about where she will end up. Will she end up in deep space? Doomed to float for eternity? Will she end up falling into a Black Hole? Will she be found by an Alien race?
These thoughts ran through her head as the capsule was loaded into the launch area. However, she wasn’t asleep. She was fully conscious.

The sudden acceleration momentarily flushed all the blood down to her torso, before returning to normal. From the tiny window, she could see the station slowly get smaller and smaller eventually disappearing as she entered the outer area of the wormhole. It was as if she was looking at a sphere from the inside, the view on the left of the window was flat, while the view on the right was curving.
The capsule shook as it entered the bulk of the wormhole, the vibration was severe, from her view, it was like flying through a giant cylinder, ‘valleys’ of ‘stars’ littered her view and even some galaxies looked like they were 2 Dimensional images plastered on an uneven piece of rock.
30 seconds later, the vibration stopped, and she was now in completely new, unexplored space.
Turning on her watch, she left a message to anyone who happened to find her:
[This is Eva Lanister. If anyone out there happened to find me in this capsule…I’ll be in your care. What, or Why am I in a capsule is information you are better off not knowing.]
With that, she discarded her watch, activating the electromagnet on the rear and sticking it on the floor.
Resting her head on the hibernation bed, a warm liquid water-like substance slowly flooded the inside, envrloping her. Opening her mouth, she inhaled the substance into her lungs. Closing her eyes, she went to sleep.
5 million years later. 4 months from the present time.
The capsule, having passed the Barrier in a little less than 4 months, and taking well over 30 years to reach the inner Schatten System comoletely unnoticed, would wake up. The navigation computer was damaged, not being able to detect any specific Gravitational Fields. The emergency beacon was non-functional, nor was any method of communication to the outside world.
Nontheless, the capsule would fire up its Plasma Thrusters, slowing down the capsule into an orbit around the single Gravitational Body it could detect. The home star of the Schatten System.
Its occupant was still alive, but asleep. Having been asleep for the past five and a half million years. Having retained the same body as when she first departed her home Galaxy.
The outside of the capsule had shown a bit of wear and tear, tiny craters pock marked the external structure, but the capsule was still functioning.
It was only a matter of time until someone found her…
[A/N: The part where someone finds her capsule floating in deep space would take place 4 months after her capsule has settled in an orbit around the star, just a heads up]
