The relaxing silence of the night was all that he wished for, all he ever wanted. He wanted to at least find peace at where he was with no worry, of course that was short-lived. Hearing footsteps outside of the pod made him freeze. Footsteps? Who.. or what, was outside? He had forgotten for a split second that he was on another planet. His life, would be at serious risk. What if this creature alerted others? Surely he couldn't have that. Barely having a life and having it end so suddenly? Not going to happen.<br/><br/>The hiss of the pod door opened, and Quo sat up in bed, leaning on his elbows. Before him was a being, fleshy colored with pink hair. It appeared to be female, and of course, overly excited of some sort. The loud shouting startled him. Scrambling up from his bed, he quickly reached over to grab the female by a shoulder, pulling her in quickly, having her rest against him. He rested a hand on her mouth as the pod door closed with a hiss. He tried to keep her quiet, muffled of course.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">Not good, not good. When is this ever good?! This.. being here.. Surely she would alert others of her kind to me. I'm not ready to die now.</span>Quo looked around his pod for a moment, frantically searching for something. Of course he had nothing, so he slowly turned his head to look back at the female. The look of fear was clearly shown in his blue eyes.<span style="font-style: italic">I don't know what to do. Do I just... let her go? What if she shouts again? Would I have to kill her?</span>His thoughts were wandering, but he knew he could never kill another being. It just wasn't his nature.<br/><br/>Slowly, he started to pull his hand away from the being's mouth. Hesitation was always something he had when it came to unknown things. Sighing, he sat down on his bed with his head in his hands. His life was sure to end here, what luck did he have to be stuck here?
