That battle made Graham rest for a whole day and He wasn't allowed to leave his bed until his body fully recovered. He doesn't like that his own only two crew members are doing this but It makes sense, That wasn't an easy battle for him after recovering from a serious injury. His Body recovers way faster than Leslie expected when three days pass.
"Are you sure that you're okay? You had so many slashes..." Leslie looks at Graham with some concern while they're walking into the Living area of their ship. She's not used to someone recovering that state in only three days but his body has an abnormal healing speed. "If your wounds reopens, I'm leaving you to treat them."
"Three days is good enough for my Regeneration to fully repair any injuries from those monsters." Graham stretches his body a bit to show he's fine! However, He gets a glare from Leslie who had to deal with him being seriously hurt twice. "Hey... I'm okay, Don't worry about it."
"Hey Leslie, I'm done making your new clothes!" Alloy pops up with her usual shaky android body to deliver Leslie's new clothes, Fresh from the ship's workshop machine. It's how they made those spare parts and it's a model that can create clothes. "I hope you like them, I'm not the best at clothing design."
"Oh finally... I was getting tired of these dirty clothes." Leslie didn't enjoy her time with these messy clothes even if her body was just living crystals now. It's been an experience not having many of the usual human biological stuff going on. She takes her fresh clothes and starts to walk away from Graham. "I'm going to change and We're getting this ship into space soon."
"Man, I wanted to watch a movie beforehand but I will make sure the engine is working." Graham wanted to hang out for a small bit before traveling but he's excited to leave as well. He starts walking out of the room. The lower parts of their ship has the engine Room. Alloy's project starts floating by him. "Oh, You're going to help?"
"Yup, I need to run some system checks and make sure everything is properly sealed." Alloy wants to check all their safety options. They're very important and She doesn't want to crash this ship again since it might not survive another one. "Safety is highly important for our take off!"
Graham walks down into the ship's lower parts and enters into their engine room. It has some narrow space to walk around from the countless machines and all kinds of parts. All of this is important for space travel, His preferred work on this ship has always been engineering of it. His first dream was to travel space but since crashing to this planet has given him some enjoyment of working in this engine room.
He grabs a tool box from a metal crate by the Engine Room's door and nods to Alloy who start the process of analyzing their Engine systems. Any vague issues that he finds will go through Diagnostics through Alloy. He's going to start with the Cooling systems since a overheating engine could explode in the middle of space. His Visual ability allowed him to see minor issues with ease.
This goes on for while with Alloy's help in doing engine checks. She's sends another one of her projections to Leslie's new living space at the Crew's living area. The A.I surprises Lesile in the middle of trying on one of her new outfits. "Oh! Sorry, I didn't know you weren't using the changing room."
"Wait.. Where? That would've been good to know." Leslie adjusts her new shirt, It's pretty well fitted. This crystal body has a weird sense of touch from it being living crystals. It can be weirdly soft or hard as crystals, This is way different than anything normal for her. A serious topic comes to mind since Alloy just suddenly appeared. "Are you watching us, Alloy?"
"It's over here! Sorry, I was busy making your new clothes and watching for more monsters." Alloy floats over to a door on the other side of that room. It looks a lot like the closet on the other side of the room. She's caught off guard by that question but it makes sense for someone to ask. "No... I only sense things within the ship, I'm not designed to be a security A.I"
"I thought that was just a second closet, That's going to need a sign." Leslie was pretty annoyed at the design of that door being the same as their closet. She's going to make Graham install a sign since Alloy's android body is likely too shaky. That whole sense thing is very strange and rubs Leslie in a weird way. "What do you mean by Sense?"
"Well, I can sense things or people on the ship like a sixth sense because I'm a part of it! Uh... Sometimes I don't check what's in places." Alloy gets a glare from Leslie. There's something off about her sensing thing but being a part of the ship was obvious. She uses an audio clip of someone sighing. "I don't like using my Abilities to peek into personal areas like the crew living area or Graham's room, It feels like a personal invasion of privacy."
"Oh... Uh..." Leslie didn't expect that kind of response from Alloy, That's more human than she thought a Ship A.I could produce. What was Alloy? That question entered her mind because this genuinely made her curious about Alloy as an A.I. "Alloy, What kind of A.I are you?"
"I'm an A.I to perform multiple tasks in different locations and this ship's Main A.I for system management." Alloy seems more than happy to explain her role on the ship. It's something that made her proud to serve this crew and the past crew but that didn't really rid of Leslie's curiosity. She gets alerted to Graham finishing the Engine check up much faster than usual. "Oh, Graham is done! We should get ready."
Leslie couldn't say anything else when Alloy disappeared from the room. This sparked a question and she kinda wants to know more about Alloy's existence but that can be explored later since they're finally leaving. It's going to be a wild journey with these two and whoever they manage to get into this crew.
Graham is already in the ship Pilot deck to do a manual check up on their parts and wiring. He's finishing up when Leslie walks in, Her new outfit is clearly an improvement. The old one was ruined from the crystals and Some blood stains from carrying him to the ship. "I'm done with the Control check, There should be no issue flying with this ship-"
Leslie has already started to sit in the piloting seat before Graham could finish speaking. She's a trained pilot and wants off this planet quickly. It catches Graham off guard from how quickly she went to piloting their ship. He sighs before sitting in the secondary seat with a bit of a grumpy look but He's no pilot, In fact, His skill with piloting would be awful.
"Everyone ready?" Alloy appears in the pilot deck as their ship's engine starts up. This causes it to shake and with a small rumble for a second as it raises off the ground. She's making sure there's hopefully no errors in their first take off after years! "This is really happening! It's time to take off!"
It raises off the ground and slowly reaches a good distance from the planet's surface. The ship picks up more speed as it gets higher until... The blue sky fades into the darkness in space, Stars across their Pilot deck's Window but there was something different to Leslie. However, Graham has a face filled with dread. It's a massive cosmic cloud of some writhing multi-colored energy.
"Leslie, avoid it now! It's an-" Alloy couldn't finish the Sentence as their ship gets hit by this giant cosmic cloud. It's almost like this thing was aiming for them and they're sucked in. The ship gets thrown around in a wild spiral- The whole ship's systems goes crazy by being within this thing, Alloy starts glitching out.
Everything for Graham blacks out, Something must've knocked him out but why was he floating downwards? Where is he? Everywhere is dark and seems like the static of a messed up screen. He's slowly looking around, Someone is here alongside him. A Lady in a messy dress and long black hair. She looks at him before making a dull smile in his direction. "You're just like your father during his younger days, even your Umbrakinesis is beautiful like his."
"I hope you remember my face, It has been so long." Her footsteps cause ripples like she's walking on top of some liquid surface. Graham couldn't speak, His mouth merely moved but no sound came out. He's trying to remember who this is and only some fuzzy memories that hurt. Something about her makes him feel like they're family? She walks up to him as his fall stops at her feet. "Guard his treasure and wake up before your friend starts to worry."
