Number Seven //Book One// - Dark Matter (COMPLETED)

Episode 8

Five, Six, and Seven are in the mess hall when the ship rumbles.

'Are we docking?' Seven taps to Five.

"I have no idea." Five says.

The rest of the crew walks into the mess hall.

"Okay, supply run." Two says. "One, you're on infirmary restock. You got your list?"

"Got it." One says.

"Four, seeds to keep hydroponics going." Two continues. "Five, you've got gak..."

"Connectors, adapters, and three-twelve sprockets." Five explains.

"That's what I said." Two says. "Three, you've got juice. Make sure that um... Where the hell's Three?"

"In his room." Five says. "He says he's not coming."

"I'll get him." Four says.

"Give him some time." Six says.

"He's had enough time." Four says, leaving.

"And Seven, tag along with whoever." Two says.

"Okay, same drill as last time." Two says, meeting a few members at the docking bay. "We've docked under a false registration. Just remember don't draw unnecessary attention to yourselves. And, yes, I speak from experience."

"Think he'll come?" Five asks.

"In the interest of us getting some actual R&R, I hope not." One says. Ten he looks around. "Oh, come on. You're all thinking the same thing I'm just the only one with the guts to say it."

Four and Three walk in.

"Alright!" Three exclaims.

"There he is!" One exclaims falsely.

"Bring it on." Three says. "Let's do this boys! Huh?"

They all walk off of the ship.

They look around at the building they're walking through.

"Okay, what's up first? Shops, spa, food." Two lists.

Everyone states a different answer, Seven is lost in her head, following the colorful outfit of Five in front of her.

"Seriously, kidding, food." Three says.

"Alright, let's get some grub." Two says.

"Eh, you guys go ahead." Six says. "I'll catch up with you."

"Are you sure?" Two asks.

"Yeah." Six says.

"Alright knock yourself out." Three says.

Five stops moving and Seven along with her.

Seven looks up to see that the rest of the crew is walking away.

"What are we doing?" Seven asks.

"Yeah." Six says, whom Seven didn't realize was there. "Aren't you going to get something to eat?"

"No, I'd rather hang with you." Five says.

"No. What I mean is, I just need some time to myself okay." Six says. "But we'll hang out later."

"Okay." Five says.

Six walks off.

"Weird." Seven says, her French accent seeping into her words. "Should we follow him?"

"Of course." Five says.

The two girls follow a little far behind Six.

They see him go into a room.
