Anjali heard Dwayne's voice through the bathroom door with a sense of growing alarm. The way she saw it, if he thought it was serious, she would too, he knew about these things. She was just a scientist and linguist, after all. She was pulling up her pants when a sudden jolt and shudder told her that they had made a jump, she quickly sanitized her hands and had headed back to the bunk, busying herself with her boots when she heard Dwayne's voice over the intercom. Why on earth would he have jumped close to a singularity, she wondered, but nonetheless rushed out, laces untied and just barely grabbing her jacket. Running up the stairs, the metal clanking as she dashed over it, she reflected that if she was going to keep running she really needed to either buy or replicate a damn bra, perky boobs notwithstanding, running with the girls bouncing about hurt! The warning klaxons had not let up and grew louder and dimmer as she approached and passed them. How the hell had Dwayne already gotten to the bridge?<br/><br/>She finally made it to the bridge and quickly tossed herself into the seat Dwayne pointed out to her while he was surveying several monitors and rapid fire discussed all manner of technical stuff with Bianca. She was still astonished at the little mechanical life form, because that's how she thought of her; Bianca was aware, therefore she was alive in a way. She buckled herself in and remained silent while the two of them talked.<br/><br/>A growing dread manifested in her but she couldn't bring herself to voice it. Surely it couldn't be them, the Srinivasan's, not after almost three hundred years, by now she was clearly space junk, wasn't she? Was it raiders? But she remained silent about her thoughts and fears, now was not the time. Dwayne had his hands full and would surely fill her in as he found time to do so. "Why did we jump so suddenly, and why this neighborhood?" she finally queried, but Dwayne was still talking to Bianca and didn't respond right away<br/><br/>She looked at him and was suddenly struck by how handsome he was, and feeling him holding her just a few minutes ago had felt more home than anything ever before. And then her thoughts went to the pillow and clearly why he had placed it there. Oh my, this was not a good time to think about this, how ridiculous. Still her heart rate went up a bit and she looked away, before he could see her looking at him. Like her, she knew, he was engineered, but bless the engineers for designing him with these features. Her mind trailed away....features... mentally she smacked herself upside the head...<i>Anjali Miriam Sarawgi</i>,<i><b>STOP.IT.RIGHT. NOW!!!</b></i>
