In space, no one can hear you scream...
Or that is what Jonathon thought. Being stuck on a spaceship in the middle of nowhere, with some sort of mutated alien beast (who looked kind of like a green puppy with fangs) is not a place you would usually want to be. Jonathon, not knowing how or why he was in such a place, ran towards the sliding mechanical door at the end of the hall. He didn't take a chance to look behind him as he could hear the ravenous beast thumping closer and closer.
He opened the door, hurried inside and shut it, barricading himself in with pieces of furniture. He could hear the beast move away on the other side of the door. Relieved, Jonathon stepped back and looked around the room he was in. It seemed to be some sort of control room for the entire ship in which, either by coincidence or luck, he had stumbled upon. There was a window showing the planet Jupiter next to the depths of space and a console next to the window. He walked towards the console and looked through the logs, one of them was bound to tell him why he was here.
He looked at the first log:
LOG #1
VOYAGE OF THE SHIP USS EVERGREEN
WE ARE TRAVELING TO THE MOON OF JUPITER, ALSO KNOWN AS TITAN, DUE TO MYSTERIOUS SIGNALS BEING EMMITED AND PICKED UP ON OUR RADAR. THE SIGNALS SOUND LIKE A DISTRESS CALL BUT COULD BE GIBERISH, NO HARM IN NOT CHECKING IT OUT

Jonathon, getting even more curious than he was before, looked at some more logs.
LOG #5
