3. New Life - New Name

A/N: I'm going to abandon Google Translate and Grammarly in favor of developing both my vocabulary and writings. It's been fun but I cannot always depends on these two. So midway you might start to notice the drop in quality...

"Lynx!" The Captain's voice echoed with excitement through the room, jolting Lynx awake from a disoriented slumber. It was morning, or at least, whatever passed for morning on this spaceship. The crew of the Hyperion stood before her,

Faces that were so familiar yet so foreign at the same time.

"Lynx?..."

"Lynx!" he repeated, a grin spreading across his face. "Yeah your name is now Lynx. Since we can't have 2 Bronies living under the same hood, after all... Although I would prever that way." he added, glancing at the other girl with a playful smirk.

"...?" Bronie stared blankly, her mind as clouded as the now named "Lynx."

"We named it solely based on your—how do I put it?..." the Captain stammered, seeking help from the ELF besides him.

"Agility, Speed, and Evasive ability" the small ELF interjected as she tapped away at a tablet.

"You're incredibly difficult to catch, even for me." Tesla flexed her floating iron fists, a silent threat towards 'Lynx' who shuddered upon seeing them on display. "Be glad I didn't crush your ribs," she added with a hint of amusement.

The Captain chuckled nervously. "Yeah, don't mess with her. She's basically in charge of everything technical."

"But you're the Captain." 'Lynx' said, raising her eyebrows. Looking at the person that's supposed to be the one behind every captainverse story.

"Well, yeah, I'm the boss. But T here does all the real work. She's even the ship's mechanic."

"Okay..." 'Lynx' nodded.

"Alright, let me introduce you to the rest of the crew," the Captain announced. He gestured towards a tall woman with striking gray hair and a black dress adorned with roses. "This is Rita. You've met her already."

A shiver ran down her spine as she remembered their previous encounter. "Scary..." she muttered under her breath.

Rita's head snapped up. "Did I hear that correctly?"

"N-nothing!"

The Captain chuckled. "Don't mind her. She's just like that" Then, he turned to Bronie. "Bronie, say hi to your twin!"

Bronie's expression was a mix of disbelief and annoyance. "Huh?"

"Say hi!" the Captain repeated, a bit of exasperation in his voice.

"Whatever," Bronie grumbled, finally giving in. "Hi."

"Don't worry, she'll warm up eventually," the Captain assured Lynx.

Lastly, he indicated a woman with vibrant pink hair clad in a sleek ninja-like suit. "This is Kasumi. Our resident ninja and recon expert. We've jumped through countless worlds with her."

Lynx tilted her head. "Jumped?"

"Oh, right, I forgot to mention. We're a group of travelers exploring the Sea of Quanta and the Imaginary Tree. Most of us ended up here after getting lost or seeking something we couldn't find in our own worlds."
