|Zahaire|
The interior of the ship consists of all white metal walls and a pretty plain shiny black floor.
"Hshauahs kjuah lats iturofs,"
"Ohidh gtashut fwquahd!"
The voices get closer to us and Braylon quickly pulls us into a nearby room.
Inside of the room, there are scientific tools and valves.
There's a bunch of items scattered around the room.
To me, it looks like a science laboratory.
UV lights, some random chemicals in valves, and strange looking tools are seen all around me.
"Why would you guys have the shit that kills you on your ship?" I ask in a whisper.
"I assume it's study and find out why we cannot withstand it, but you can." Braylon replies, whispering as well.
I peek my head inside of the room and find that it's empty. Walking inside, I grab a uv flashlight and shove it into my pocket.
We may need this later...
"Pst, Zahaire let's go!" Braylon whispers.
"I'm coming, I'm coming."
I exit the alien laboratory and catch up with Audree and Braylon who are a couple of feet in front of me.
"It's gonna be too risky with you both out in the open. We need to find you some cover."
Me and Audree look around for anything that could be useful. I spot a cart looking thing and suggest that.
"Seriously...isn't that a little cartoonish?" Audree says.
"It's the best we've got. It'll probably be a little cramped though."
The sound of footsteps fills the air and me and Audree move quickly. She jumps in first and tries to make room for me. I hop in after and Braylon closes the lid after us.
The footsteps are louder then, there is a pause. I hear talking though I can't understand anything that's being said. Moments pass then I feel the cart begin to move.
We venture deeper into the ship and my stomach feels like it's flipping inside itself. I'm extremely nervous.
I peek through the lid and see Braylon eyes scan everywhere. My guess is that he's looking out for anything that could blow our cover.
"Move you're fucking foot dude!" Audree shouts in a whisper.
"Sorry...I can't your ass is squishing me."
Audree smirks.
"It's fat aint it."
"Audree," I sigh. "Shut the fuck up before I sock your twig ass."
I put emphasis on 'fuck' and cross my arms to the best of my abilities in this cramped ass cart.
