MSNPC Timesh - Fight or Flight

[David Hemming]

  ((USS Avandar - Main Engineering))

::Finding himself alone in the large engineering room Timesh felt the urge to run. Someone must have spotted him by now, and he leapt behind a large console and tried to stem his rapid breathing. Then he heard the voice. It was a woman's voice, soft and gentle.::

Rawlings: Hello? Can I help you?

:: She slowly approached the terminal and started to crouch down. As she got lower she placed her pads on the deck. ::

Timesh: I'm sorry... Please don't hurt me...

Rawlings: :: In her soft voice. :: I’m not going to hurt you. 

:: She glanced around and noticed a few other engineers approaching that now seemed aware of his presence. Liz waved them to go away, as she didn’t want to scare the lad any more than he was already. ::

Rawlings: Are you hungry?

Timesh: I... Yes...

::He didn't know what else to say. On the Colony whenever he got up to no good or went somewhere he shouldn't, he always found it best to comply with the Overseer's line of questioning and to tell the truth. Lies got you beaten.::

::The engineer moved to a space in the wall and called for some food. Timesh was still fighting the urge to run. He was beginning to panic.::

:: She moved back to where she was before and opened the wrapper, she broke a bit off and took a bite. ::

Rawlings: Look it good. 

::She slid the chocolate across the floor to the boy. ::

Timesh: Thank you...

::He picked up the chocolate bar and tentatively put it in his mouth. He couldn't describe the taste. He'd certainly never tasted anything like it in his life. It was sweet and satisfying and he sighed a great sigh of comfort before eating hungrily at the chocolate bar.::

Rawlings: So what’s your name?

Timesh: Timesh. I was brought here from the slave ship.

Rawlings: My name is Liz..

Timesh: Hello Liz.

::The doors parted and the green woman from the medical room entered. Timesh backed himself up against the panel in fear. She unnerved him, and he was frightened of her.::

Security: <Response>

Rawlings: He’s a bit frightened gave him some Chocolate. Can I leave him with you?

Security: <Response>

Timesh: No! I want to stay here with you.

Rawlings/Corsetto: <Response>

Timesh: Please. I won't be a burden. Don't make me go with her.

Rawlings/Corsetto: <Response>

Timesh: I don't trust green skin. Green skins enslaved my people! They kill O'Racken for sport...

Rawlings/Corsetto: <Response>
