"So uh, what exactly are you?"

------------

I sat there looking at Zan'tui who looked at me for a moment, her blue eyes looking right through me. "Well I'll get to that, but this isn't really the ideal place to discuss it. It's gonna be a long story." She said grabbing the empty plate from me. I slowly shifted my position, my legs now hanging off the side of the table. "Um, also one more thing." I said looking over at Zan'tui. "Hmm?" She looked over. "Where are my clothes and gear?" I asked looking at my bare chest. Zan'tui then let out a few clicks as she looked me over before speaking. "Well your gear is safe in my room, and you clothes I am currently putting back together." She said as she began walking out of the room. I let out a sigh before looking at the bandage on my leg, and then sucked in a breath as I slid off the table. My feet hit the cold floor and sent cold chills up my spine. Surprising enough I didn't feel any pain from my leg. Well my arm was sore but I'm definitely sure that Zan'tui did something to null the pain. I slightly staggered a little bit as I slowly walked out of the room.

I hobbled into the main area of the bunker slowly looking around. Seeing the depressing in floor with steps that had pillows laying on it. Slowly walking over to it I stepped down and sat on a pillow as I waited. I don't know what it was, but I felt at home. Then I heard heavy footsteps behind me then saw Zan'tui sit down next to me. I looked over at her and still couldn't get over how tall she was. Even sitting down she towered over me. She then placed a pillow over her lap, slowly crossing her legs she looked over at me. "So now that we're comfy we can get started." She mused making me slightly uncomfortable. 

I then saw her nostrils flare open as she sucked in a deep breath, I then got a feeling that this would take a long while. "So first off my species is known as Yautja, and our culture is mainly focused around honor." She said closing her eyes looking like she had this memorized in her head. "So kind of like the Japanese?" I said raising an eyebrow. Zan'tui however seemed puzzled when she opened her eyes. "What's a Japanese?" She asked. "Uh, never mind." I muttered looking away. 

"Anyways." Zan'tui said shaking her head. "My kind take pride in hunting and collecting trophies." She said putting her hand to her dreadlocks and tapped a piece of bone attached to one dreadlock. I then remembered the skulls I saw in the one room I checked, the one with the human skull. "And to be considered one of the clan and an adult one must hunts a fearsome predator and collect its skull." She went on explaining. "So like a right of passage?" I interjected. "Exactly." She said nodding. "So then we have many more titles for however many hunts or how big of prey you've taken down." She said as she then leaned back. " I happen to be an elite hunter." She said as if proud of it. 

"Yeah, well I'm a Gemeiner, or Landser." I said trying to use my military rank to one up her. But it wouldn't work. She just let out a chuckle and shook her head. "Anyways that's pretty much the bare minimum of my species. Also one more thing, us females of our species are usually bigger than the males." She said the  sitting back up. "Yeah I kind of figured. Also hey one thing, actually a lot of things." I said finding myself grabbing a pillow. "Huh?" She cocked her head to the side. 

"First off, what happened back there?" I asked going over all the events. She seemed to let out a sigh. "Ok first off the two yautja you saw were what we call bad bloods, or outcasts. They broke our rules of honor so they're cast out. And as to how we ended up in that situation is that they jammed most of my ships instruments, so I just grabbed you, put you in a crate and dropped you to the planet." She explained. I then began to slightly understand. "So this isn't a bunker?" I said looking around. "No it's a ship, but think of it as a plane that can go into space." She said put a hand through her dreadlocks.
