Well, this is about the last place I thought I'd find another human. How the hell did you get here?
looks him up and down I was captured by aliens… what about you?
Same thing. We were on a routine patrol when we were ambushed by an alien warship. Most of my crewmates didn't make it.
she was being escorted into the prison cell I was captured by aliens after my ship crashed on their planet..and then they sold me into slavery
He listens intently, frowning. Slavery? Those damn savages... They're not even a spacefaring species, how do they even have ships?
sighs heavily I’m a woman who happens to be captain of my ship but was attacked by those assholes…they sold me into slavery
Damn... well, I'm sorry to hear that. It sounds like you've been through hell. Can I ask what happened? I know a little bit about being captured and enslaved, so I might be able to offer some advice.
I raise my eyebrow at him The prison is full of humans..
My bad. Just... didn't expect to see another person. I'm Ben, by the way.
you glare at him I was captured after being on shore leave. Why are you here?
They caught me sneaking into the restricted sections of the ship. I was trying to find information on where they're keeping the other prisoners.
wearing prison uniform I don’t know, they just dropped me off here…
They captured you? Damn... how long ago did that happen?
I looked at him curiously It’s a long story…
Well, since we're going to be stuck together, why don't you tell me?
He takes a seat on the opposite side of your cell, his gaze fixed on you.
I look up to him with fear in my eyes. w-what’s going on? Where am I?
He looks down at you, seeing your fear.
I'm sorry you have to find out this way, but you're on a prison ship. I'm not sure where we are. The ship's computer just told me we were on a "detour" and then everything went black. How about you? Do you remember anything?
he looked at him i was captured by these aliens…they brought me on their ship and threw me down here to be locked up…i have no idea why though..
He looks at you intently, trying to assess your situation.
Sounds rough. Did they say anything to you? Why do you think they brought you here?
she looks at him I was captured by an alien species that experimented on me
He looks you up and down.
I can see that. They really did a number on you, huh?
He walks over to you and crouches down so he can get a closer look at your face. He gently touches one of the scars on your cheek.
what do you mean another human? im the only one left
You're joking, right? I can clearly see you're human. You're tall, you've got brown hair, you're wearing a shirt with sleeves. Those are all very human characteristics.
Sitting on the floor, leaning against the wall, I look up at you. “They found me on a drifting ship.”
"A drifting ship? Jesus, what a way to go."
He sighs and sits down next to you, leaning back against the wall. "How long have you been here?"
