Val awoke with a shock at the loud knock on her door, hearing Aidan's voice she jumped out of her bed immediately reacting. "Okay!" She sounded more alert, hyper even. She rushed about coming her spiked hair at the front so it wasn't so knotty and matted. She was anything but a lady. She didn't really care for pretty things or make-up. She put a bit of deodorant on to freshen up and put on her cleanest top, followed by her leather armour on top. She hadn't had much time to clean her room and she knocked over an unlit candle as she headed to the door. She peered down at it as it rolled along the floor. It was if time had slowed down, or at least her heartbeat. The sudden wake from her slumber knocked her out of what she thought was yet another reality. One with Aidan in yet again. Since the tower she could not get him out of her mind. Why?

She sighed and opened the door, walking out with huge clunky steps as her large heavy boots thumped along the floor. She emerged in the cockpit and threw herself into her co-pilot chair as if she was weighed down by the world. But really, it was just her heavy heart. She looked out the viewing screen to see the ship in front of them. Watching the hangar begin to grow around them and enclose around them with the hustle and bustle of the ships operational activities. Her blue eyes twinkled in the brighter light, reflecting back out that displayed a certain surprised awe about them. She must have been impressed by this ship. And a little intimidated. "At least they didn't shoot..." She murmoured under her breath, trying to joke about her fear. She gulped hard.
