As my eyes slowly open, I glance around the room, strange and alien. "What happened"? I mumble under my breath.
A dark figure is looming in the corner of my new confinement, huge and alien. The cell "door" was made of some sort of clear, blue, filmy wall
Across my cell is Isaak, helmet missing. I got up to go speak with him but immediately he held his hand up, signaling me to stop. I halted and shrugged my shoulders in question, only to get Isaak pointing harshly at a dark figure. The huge silhouette, alien in figure, but still somewhat humanoid in shape. It was silently observing us, mentally recording everything we did. Then, a little ways down the corridor, an imperial marine was brought out of his cell and questioned. Moments later the leader of the interrogators gestured to another and the imperial was promptly executed.
I turned to Isaak and we both were thinking the same thing; we have to get out of here, and fast.
