The 'chao' and [Phantom]Shadow

[marauder]

"Urgh, thats twice in two days." groaned an escape pod.

"Note to self, don't drink and try to perform evasive manouvers whilst staring at the rear viewscreen..." marauder mumbled as he opened his pod and staggered out.

The cavernous hold was crammed with stasis pods, most of the occupied.

"You ok in there?" marauder asked banging on the other escape pod.

"Yeah, I'm just peachy, get me outta here and stop trying to deafen me."

"I'm an old softy." marauder muttered as he popped the seals and helped his crewperson out.

"Where the hell are we now?"

"I don't want to know thank you very much, I need to keep what little sanity I have left." He replied acidly.

"Huh?"

An unseen door hissed open.

"Oh ****." marauder swore.
