    Summary

    He pressed himself further back into the corner, a snarl coming to his lips. The eye creatures never reacted to his shouting, but they did hesitate when he growled. But when the lanky aliens came around the corner, they didn't so much as look at him. Instead, they were focused on what looked like a stretcher, the kind that ambulances used back on Earth.

    Sitting atop it, perfectly still, was another human.

    Scar felt his heart stop in his chest. It was impossible. There was no way there was another human on the ship. It had to be a trick of some kind, a robot made to look human, or a statue, or something. This was some sort of experiment, a test to see how he would react to seeing something that looked like his own species.

    But they looked so lifelike.

    -

    or, abducted by a rogue group of alien scientists, Scar is nothing more than a test subject. After a year alone, he finally gets a friend. As the only two humans outside of the solar system, they have only each other to rely on. Alone, it was impossible to escape. But with Grian by his side, maybe, just maybe, they have a chance.

    or or, grian and scar against the entire galaxy, trying to survive and make their way home.

    He had been mid-wrestle with Katie in their backyard when the spaceship appeared.

    When he woke up next, he was in a sterile cell, Katie asleep on his chest, and an endless sea of unfamiliar stars gleaming out of the one window.

    Summary

    There’s no time. His chest burned with every step, a hot striking pain shooting up his legs. He sprinted, fumbling for a potion of swiftness in his emergency bundle. Nom slammed it onto the ground, ignoring the glass of shards scattering around him. A rush of adrenaline coursed through his decaying lungs, running past the circus and closer to the kingdoms.

    “Gotta go- gotta warn them.”

    It’s still too slow. Why did it feel like nothing happened? Of course, he couldn’t have missed the splash effect, but he swore it hit him.

    There! The Rue-bars in sight. He could see the bridge, the arena, but no people at all.

    “Anyone?!” He reached the bridge, frantically searching. There were signs of a battle, grass trampled, blood in the air and the smell of gunpowder. “Where-where is everybody?!” The crows squawked uselessly above him. Why was no one here? Nom started heading towards Red, avoiding a large crater when he heard the same gravelly voice.
