I felt uneasy at the Doctor's expression. Within me the pain was still swirling, going from a sharp stabbing to a dull numbing feeling. The pain grew as I looked at myself wondering, while the questions mounted. This is not my body? What am I?

The Doctor took notice of my discomfort, “Isn't this what you wanted? To be out in the universe, to seek something more than yourself?” At that moment my mind was focused elsewhere.

The pain was coursing through my entire body. It was unbearable, I was so tired. The intense urge to sleep, I was ready to collapse, to sleep. I froze in place, the shaking got worse and my face still hidden.

Doctor Tylor, surprised by this, jumped onto the table to sit with me. An uncontrollable surge of pain pierces my whole frame, causing me to joint without making a sound.

The doctor didn't hesitate, putting his arms around me and embracing me tightly.

“I don’t know what’s bothering you, and even though you have all the components for speech it seems you don’t talk.”

The notion of being touched like this terrified me but somehow I knew that Dr. Tylor would never harm me. I raised my face from hiding and looked at the doctor, he smiled and sat up straight.

“I have an idea, something we can do to distract us from all this.” The Doctor held out his hand with his palm open. “A hardcover copy of Bone Childs Tales please.”

I looked on in awe as a book materialized onto his hand. “I bet they didn't have this kinda tech on your planet huh?” The sight felt new to me, I shook my head.

“I could read you a chapter if that's ok?” the doctor said. My eyes haven't left the book, the doctor took it as a yes. Raydeen took it as a sign to leave. Doctor Tylor had such a smile on him “I really love reading to others” he opened the book.

Suddenly a ring was heard from around the room, peaking the doctor's interest. “Oh dang, actually I should probably show you around the ship.” I looked up and around me, the dull pain slowly crept back.237Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JSWa0kjWQ
