Phil went to investigate the large object that had crashed into the forest the night before. Once he had got there he saw a young unconscious starborne laying in the center of the crater. He took the kid back to the community house or "The Pube" as the others called it, and later down the kid.
When he woke up Scott had no idea where he was. The stars that lingered around him were buzzing with chatter and he saw a man in front of him.
"Hello mate. I'm Phil, I found you outside unconscious," the man, Phil he had mentioned, said calmly, " Who might you be?"
"I-I'm Scott," the young starborne stuttered.
"Foolish ones, coming to a peaceful star system to die," the mysterious man replied, "Where do you belong?"
"We're new to the area," Scott said slowly, unsure of what to say next, "It looks as if you have some sort of colony in the center of the system, is this planet yours?"
"No, it's my brother's system. We live here when I can. In fact, I am just arriving," the mysterious man said. He then turned back to Scott, "Did you happen to see anything? I know it sounds a little suspicious that you got here by yourself, but if you had seen something, wouldn't you want to warn the others?"
"I was just going to go explore and see what I could find. I wasn't going to tell anyone," Scott said a bit apologetic, "I thought I would be safe here."
"But you could be right and someone could be nearby," the man said and he pointed to the night sky above Scott, "There are about 30 in our territory. We have two scouts patrolling every five miles but I will try and expand it. I will let you sleep if you want."
"Okay," Scott replied, "Thanks for the warning."
Scott drifted off to sleep, dreaming of waking up on Earth. He began to hear snoring and suddenly woke up.
"What the hell," he screamed, "Are you going to sleep all day?"
"I don't sleep Scott," Phil replied, "I sleep and wait," he replied and he dragged Scott by his shoulder towards the door of the community house.
