He was about to go to the navigation console when he heard the comms buzz into life. "Well what do you know, there's someone else here," he said under his breath. "Hey, uh..." he paused, unsure as to what to say. "This is Rich Thompson, I'm guessing this isn't your ship either?" he asked, berating himself internally for asking such a ridiculous question. "Are you okay?" he asked, trying to hide the panic he was feeling. Nothing about the situation was making any sense, and the fact the ship was barely responding to his inputs wasn't helping his mood.  "If you know anything about computers I could do with you up here, I may have found the first computer in 25 years which I haven't been able to get to work. I was fixing computers aged nine so this seems a bit...unusual." 'Good job,' he thought to himself. 'Barely started talking to her and you're already talking like a geek.' "You should be able to get to the bridge easily, assuming this ship is laid out like most ships are." He turned back to the the computer, trying to persuade the sensors to work. "That can't be right," he said, forgetting the comms were still open. "Have I found the one section of space I've never seen before? I spose there's a first time for everything."
