Synopsis

Chapter 1 - The Two Heroes

The Machinery inside a lone spaceship in the middle of the desert starts turning on with a small hum of life. A small crystal in the middle of a panel lights up with a faint Pink light which forms into a Small Humanoid Hologram. She flies over to a man sleeping in a bed.

"Graham! Graham! Wake up!! You're not oversleeping today!" The AI says trying to wake him up with her loudest setting because he would sleep through anything else. This has been a pattern with him being a deep sleeper.

Graham rolls in his bed as She keeps trying to wake him up. He had a pleasant dream about flying a Cool spaceship. He slowly sits up and looks at the Small AI with an annoyed look before turning towards his personal clock.

"Alloy, It's 2 AM, Why are you waking me up this late?" Graham says while getting out of his Bed and walking towards a door. He still feels a bit drowsy from waking up much sooner than usual. He grabs his usual outfit on the way out.

Alloy floats around him in a clearly excited mood about something and Graham looks at one of the screens confused. The Status of the Ship says it's fully Functional!? This surprises him since this ship has been grounded since it crashed on this planet.

"It's working!? I thought the repairs would take longer with the raw materials on the planet." He looks towards Alloy for some answers. It's been a slow process to make the parts for this ship to get it working but that's from the low resources of this planet.

"We got lucky! our Harvest Drone found a huge ore deposit, So I woke you up early for this surprise." Alloy seems overjoyed at this fact before looking at the computer screen. Something catches her attention on the ship's scanner,

The Screen lights up with an alert that some unknown spaceship is crashing on this planet. Graham runs to a Wrapped up blade in dirty cloth before running toward the back of his ship and rushes towards that crash site using the guidance of Alloy.

Graham rushes through the wastelands and moves around some rocks or some patches of alien grass. He doesn't know who is on that ship but The small chance of them surviving is good enough. The same was true for him when he crashed into this wasteland of a planet.

Graham gets near the crashed ship after awhile. It wasn't that far from his own ship. some weird blobs of unknown fleshy slime are on the wings of the ship. This ship appears like a Single Pilot fighter spaceship, The Pilot might be alive and that's important since Graham has been alone for years!

"What is that stuff on the wings?" Graham says while slowing his approach he sees some movement in the cockpit. It gives him some chills just seeing those blobs like they shouldn't really exist. It's really unsettling to him on a instinctive level.

Alloy looks towards the blobs with some concern as Graham runs to help this Pilot out of their Ship. He goes up to the Canopy of this fighter spaceship before ripping it off. The Pilot watches in fear as her Canopy is easily ripped apart by this random person. She holds up a Blaster towards Graham in fear.

"Stay back, Superhuman! Where Am I?" She seems shocked but goes on the defensive from a sudden appearance of a superhuman person ripping her ship apart.

The Pilot sees her hands covered in crystals and starts freaking out because her whole body has these crystals fused into her body. Graham has his hands in the air because he's held at Blaster point and raises an eyebrow at her reaction.

"This planet is unnamed by system maps but I've named it Ulliea and Uh, Are you okay?" Graham has no idea why this lady is covered in random crystals. Was she a superhuman too or did something happen? He can tell something happened to make her defensive but doesn't realize that It's him ripping off a ship's canopy with his bare hands.

"Why am I covered in these crystals?!" She holds the Blaster closer to his chest but finds it hard to move with some of these crystals. Some of the Crystals have grown in weird spots on her body like her legs and arms

"I have no idea, I thought it was apart of your-" Graham quickly turned his head to see a humanoid being that- He was surprised by Its speed and force, It interrupted him talking to this pilot.

Graham feels a sharp pain in his side as this Humanoid being with chrome skin punches into his side which sends him flying. His mouth fills with some blood while hitting the ground and spits some out. The pilot starts shooting at the monster but It bounces off the skin, This Thing moves closer and there's a Small hole in its Smooth face that slowly widens to show countless rows of darkened teeth.

"Oh no..." Her eyes widen in fear since her legs are stuck together from a few crystals being fused together. She closes her eyes until a sound of banging metal sounds off and opening her eyes to see the monster wasn't there.

Graham managed to get up and rush forward to deliver a powerful Front kick that forced the creature away from the Ship and the Pilot. He still has blood dripping from his mouth. A quick spit of blood off to the side and picking up the wrapped up Sword from the side of the ship.

"My name's Graham, I have a ship we can use but let me deal with this creepy thing first." He says while pulling out a Steel Blade from the cloth and using the cloth to clean his blood from his mouth before throwing it to the side. This thing is clearly different than anything on this wasteland of a planet.

"I'm Leslie Beryl..." She's not proud of being defenseless against this Chrome Humanoid. These Crystals won't break apart even if she puts all her force into it. They're weird to her since they have a prismatic look. She looks towards Graham and the monster standing off.
