Now able to aim, he felt a little more comfortable, but still felt weak. He was feeling better than he was on the Paladin, and he assumed the tubes stuck in him was what was helping.<br/><br/>"Mankind, is that what you call your species?" he asked, "No, I'm not from around here. I came here from my own system, probably on the other side of the Galaxy. My people wanted to test a new Wormhole Generator and was going to send a simple probe, then wait for a response to see where it ended up. I replaced the probe so that whatever was here would know of us, and possible find my way back. I suppose the hope was to establish a two way connection with this side of the Galaxy, but I doubt it is a possibility." he paused for a moment, then sighed, "Oh, and in case the hangar crew didn't mention, My name is Dren Falon of the Nekan Space Force. I must thank you for helping me. I only came with enough food and water for four days. It's been a week since my arrival."<br/><br/>As he finished, the Translator orb around his neck began to glow a brighter red, flashed blue for a moment then Dren stared as Yuri appeared in front of his face, her form shaky at first then stabilizing a moment later.<br/><br/>"<Remote Projector Enabled.>" she said, "Hi!"<br/><br/>"<Yuri! What the hell are you doing here?>" Dren snapped. His head spun for a moment, then he felt fine again but he noticed everyone was now staring at the small, blue, Nekan floating above his breastplate. She stood on his chest and politely bowed to the Captain in an odd way that Dren assumed she pulled from the ship's cultural files.<br/><br/>"Good day! I'm Yuri! I am the Paladin's current AI system. Thank you for assisting my Brother." she said, "Although I must apologize for hacking your security and stealing your language files, but if I didn't we would not be able to communicate now." She then straightened up and smiled as she drifted backwards to sit on Dren's slightly elevated shoulder.
