Lime crawled out of the vent smoothly, facing the dark room in which they were now in, Med bay.

The place stank like hell, “Jesus, Blue..” the looked over to see Blue standing in front of the scanning machine, which reminded Lime that after this bullshit Blue still needed to shred their scan. They shrugged, Blue’s body still standing straight and still even after they had said their name. They walked over to Blue and grabbed their shoulder lightly, turning them around to face Lime. 

Except there was no face.

All that remained from Blue’s once remarkably attractive features was now replaced by torn up flesh of blood and bone.

Lime yelped and let go, Blue’s lifeless body falling to the ground. 

They stepped back, looking down at the body. Their heart raced as they started to pray, their hands trembling as they clasped them together, “Lord protect the spirit of Blue, as they pass on, please, I beg of you. And protect this damned hell we’ve been sent into-“

Lime sat up in a cold sweat, hitting their head on the vent above them. They breathed deeply, it was just a dream.

They couldn’t help but stay worried, though. They knew there was something on this ship, those fuckin aliens. It was only a matter of time before they got to Blue. 

The anxiety from the dream lingered, impacting their actions. Lime prayed quickly then decided to take the route through the vents to Med bay, just to check on them.

Blue was doing paperwork in Med bay, it was late, about 1:00 am. But they had to finish this stuff up while everyone was asleep, just in case there was any medical emergency of sorts in the morning. 

Blue yawned, half asleep, almost finished with the papers when they heard some noises coming from the vents.

They knew it was Lime, it was their voice after all, muttering and breathing very concerningly. 

Blue put their pen down and walked over to the vent, looking down. They couldn’t see much because how dark it was, “Lime, is that you?”

“….yeah” a voice responded after a bit of silence.

“What are you here for, Lime, it’s pretty late, is something wrong?” Blue asked, concerned. 

Suddenly, Lime popped out of the vent, “I’LL TELL YA WHATS WRONG, THERES ALEINS, BLUE, ALIENS! THEYRE AFTER YOU NEXT I KNOW IT!” They grabbed Blue, looking into their visor, “YOU CANT LEAVE BLUE, WHOS GONNA SHRED MY SCANS, HUH? WHOS GONNA-“ their continued panicked rambling was suddenly stopped by Blue, who grabbed Lime abruptly, “Lime, we already shredded your scans.” they said gently, trying to calm them down, “we don’t know what’s on the ship right now Lime. White could’ve just died of an accident. Take some deep breaths, okay? You’re stressing yourself out and it’s not healthy for you.” 

Lime continued, trembling, “you don’t understand doc, YOURE NEXT!” 

“Lime, what makes you think I’m going to die?” Blue asked, their voice staying soft to try and help calm Lime down.

“I- I saw it!” 

“Saw it where, Lime?”

They gulped, “I- In a dream…” 

Blue chuckled, “you’re just having nightmares, Lime. They’re not real and nothing is going to happen to me or you.” They paused, thinking. Then started again, “I’ll tell you what, you can stay with me and make sure I don’t die from aliens, plus I’m sure your body needs a comfortable place to rest rather than those vents” 

Lime blushed, “….fine.”
