"I could ask the same of you" Sky said "As I said, I'm Skyron Lorayen. Friends call me Ralif" he added "And I'm a human being. The scientific name for my race is Homo Sapien" he added "From the Sol solar system" he said "What are you?" he asked

Sol... Ritska wasn't familiar with the name. When she paused for a moment, though, she realized she couldn't recall any location names.... Not even the name of the planet she had come from. Ritska frowns, but forces herself to believe for the moment that it had something to do with her chemically induced sleep out in space, while waiting for her escape pod to find safety. Maybe it did, but not in the temporary way she hoped it did. "Um......er..." She couldn't recall that either. Ritska blinks and frowns, tendrils of fear making her feathers along her arms begin to rise. "I.... I'm not sure." She replies, her voice breaking over the last word as her eyes began to fill with fear. She knew that she wasn't a freak, that she'd never seen his kind before... but the name of her own kind eluded her completely.

"What do you mean, you aren't sure?" Sky asked, cocking an eyebrow "You lost your memory or something?" he added, & sighed "Of course you have" he muttered "My life is one big walking cliche" he muttered "Like I'm stuck in some bad sci-fi book"

"Its not my fault." She mumbles, glancing down as she speaks. She didn't know what a cliche was, but she could sense he wasn't pleased. "How do I fix it though?" She asks, glancing back up, trying not to freak out. Her mind kept trying to recall anything it could, but except for instinctual knowledge, like knowing she'd been in that escape pod to escape from something and knowing how to fly and things such as that, she was coming up with nothing. It was a very disconcerting sort of feeling, not remembering anything.

"I don't know" Sky muttered "Come on. You must be hungry. I can get you something to eat in the mess hall" Sky added "See what the replicators can make that you'll eat"

Ritska hesitates, then nods, climbing down off the railing she had been perched on until then and stands next to him. "Alright. Thank you." She replies a bit hollowly, still trying to keep her emotions in check. Those that knew what to look for, the feathers raised all along her arms and the look in her eyes, however, would know how agitated she was to realize she remembered nothing before waking up in that escape pod. She had so many questions, and no way to answer them.

"I'm sure your memory will return" Sky said, climbing down the ladder "It always does" he muttered to himself

Ritska looks a bit confused as she heard what he'd muttered. "How do you know that? Have you encountered others like myself before? She asks, frowning in confusion as she peers down the ladder at him.

"No, but considering how this sort of thing works out, you'll get your memory back" Sky said, sliding to the bottom of the ladder "You coming or not?" he asked

"Yea." She replies, nodding as she jumps over the railing, then with a flourish spreads her wings, slowing her descent considerably. Why use a ladder when you could fly after all? It was faster anyways. A second later, Ritska flaps her wings once, slowing her fall a bit more, then touches down and folds her wings close to her back once again. "Lead the way." She comments.

"This way" Sky said, leading the way from the hangar bay "Oh yeah, computer, close the blast doors to the hangar" Sky called out. A moment later, massive metals doors started to slide shut in front of the containment field, sealing the hangar from outside entry "Security precaution" Sky added for Ritskas benefit "Anyways, this way" he said, walking from the hangar

Ritska glances back, watching in awe as the large metal doors begin to close, shutting out the black curtain of stars and asteroids outside the containment fields. For a moment she just watched them, then she realized Sky was beginning to walk away. Ritska blinks, shaking her head, then turns and goes after him. "What kind of ship is this, by the way? I mean, what's its purpose?" She asks curiously.

"The Celestial Raven is a Bulk Freighter. Not a very pretty ship, but it can carry a lot of cargo" Sky said, stretching "I haul cargo from planet to planet. Pays the bills, that's for certain" he added "Kitchen is right in here"

"Ah... and what was this regenerator thing you mentioned earlier?" She asks curiously as they arrive at the kitchens finally. By now, Ritska was quite hungry.

Arin was in the kitchen, getting quite angry, as she heard Skyron's Voice. "RALIF!" She charge up to him and stood in his way, glaring. "What the hell were you thinking!?! Heading right towards the astriod field. You could have killed us, or worse damaged the cargo and..." She calmed down, into a curious state, as she saw the bird girl behind him. "Who's she? Quite odd isn't she? Definitely not human. Where'd you find this one?" Arin asked, placed her hands on her hips.
