Nalla was starting to feel very exhausted as she walked down the corridor towards the med bay.  She wanted to sleep, but she had to check on the others first.  The eerie quiet of the ship made her nervous, especially when she started to think she was being watched by the creatures.  She hadn't seen them in so long now and she wondered what they were up to.<br/><br/>Nalla stiffened when she felt the alien presence entering her mind.  At first she wanted to force the presence out, but her curiosity got the better of her and she reached out to the alien, letting her guard down completely as she answered it.<br/><br/>"I'm in the corridor.  The others are sleeping, I think," she hoped that they believed her and would leave the girls alone in the med bay for awhile.  Nalla leaned against a wall as she looked around, but not seeing the alien.<br/><br/>"Where are you?  Tell me where I can find you.  I want to see you.  I have so many questions."  Was she responding to the alien's psychic suggestion or was it her own curiosity?  Nalla wasn't sure.  Nalla didn't care.
