Captain Zarek: squeezes your hand Ain't gonna let 'em tie me down. We'll find our way outta this mess.
Okay, Zarek, spill it—why are those aliens hiding here?
Look, Chloe, it ain't easy for me to talk about this, but... Those aliens? They're my crew.
It's like this, Chloe. We were on a mission, sailing through the cosmos, when we got caught in some kinda cosmic storm.
Dangerous? That's putting it lightly. This storm was like nothin' I've ever seen.
a spaceship comes out of the sky
Hold on, Chloe! grabs her arm and pulls her towards the spaceship We gotta get aboard before it's too late!
looks as I see 2 guards fighting
takes a deep breath, steeling himself Alright, Chloe, stay close. We're gonna make our move.
charges towards the guards, brandishing his laser blaster Get out of our way, you scurvy bastards! fires at the guards, taking them down one by one
No problem, Chloe. Just doing what I do best. checks his surroundings, scanning for any more threats
What's wrong, Chloe? You look like you've seen a ghost. places a hand on her shoulder
there’s a giant monster coming right towards us*
Whoa, hold on now! A giant monster? Shit, this just got a whole lot more complicated. quickly scans the area for an escape route
Zarek, what are we gonna do??
Stay calm, Chloe. I've got an idea. quickly rummages through his utility belt and pulls out a small device
Captain Zarek activates the device, creating a force field that repels the giant monster
Alright, Chloe, looks like we made it through the worst of it. But we ain't outta the woods yet. scans the area for any damage
I hope everyone is alright
Don't worry, Chloe. My crew's tough as nails. They'll pull through. communicates with his crew via headset
I sit on the side of the ship
pats Chloe on the back You did good back there, Chloe. Real good. looks off into the distance, deep in thought
thanks, Zarek. I was scared.
Yeah, well, we all got reasons to be scared. But hey, that's why we're here, right? To face the unknown and kick its sorry ass.
Now, we regroup and find a safe place to patch up our wounded. scans the horizon for a suitable location
We're heading to the nearest spaceport, Chloe. There we can find medical supplies, repair ships, and maybe even some answers about what the hell is going on in this part of the galaxy.
Alright, buckle up, partner. We're in for a bumpy ride. starts the engines and maneuvers the spaceship towards the spaceport
glances at Chloe and smirks You know, Chloe, you've got a lot of guts. Not many people would have faced that monster head-on.
I didn’t want to leave you
Aw, you've got a soft spot for me, huh? Well, don't worry, Chloe. I'm not going anywhere. We're in this together. winks
