In the mist,

Drawn unconscious by a mind attack, according to a report, David was drawn by his autopilot to an uncharted system. . .

-

David wakes up, with a headache like he never happened to get, even after a night out. All his muscle were aching, due do an intense physical effort maybe. His mouth was as arid as Mojave. Red eyes, with the iris wide open. David felt the same way as someone who was awakening from a long period of torture. After a quick self-inspection, he saw no traces of wounds or battle remains. In fact, even the ship was intact, beside maybe some space dust here and there.

Luckily, even in the small cockpit, David was able flex some of his muscle to reduce the pain associated to them. He quickly realized that he was subject to a very intense stress before the blackout. Still, he couldn’t even remember what happened to him; his memory was still blurred. As an attempt to refresh his thoughts, he also drank some water from the supplies; thinking when dehydrated never gives anything constructive. He was certainly unconscious for a day…minimum.

The cabin was cold, as if the ship life support system were hibernating since a few hours. By reflex, he started all the ship’s systems to solve this little issue. He then lifted his head up to see where he was… nothing around him was familiar.

He was standing between two planetoids; a gas giant and its moon. His ship was in the orbit of the small satellite. Proves that the on-board computer was working when he lost sights of the reality.

“Computer, state location”
“Location unknown, uncharted systems, scanners dysfunctional”
“Time since departure?”
“72 hours, 36 minutes, 29 seconds”
“What?! How come any allied ships...”
***Welcome***den***Human*** says a voice in his head.
