It didn't take long for Benny and Matija to rejoin with the rest of the crew after they had gotten back to the ship. They ran into Stryker, who appeared to be showing around a couple of new recruits into their, as the two of them were putting down the insu-gel crates inside the gym for easy access. Their de-facto leader acknowledged them as they entered.

[color=orange]"Oh, you're back, that's good. Well, before I ask how it went, I guess I'll do the introductions. Harrison and Koren, this is Benny and Matija. Benny and Matija, these are the new ...."[/color] Stryker started but got suddenly cut off by a loud crashing sound outside. Stryker went off to investigate and Benny was moving to follow behind them but glanced back at Matija as she continued staring at one of the new arrivals before she walked up to them and reached out a hand to the blue-skinned one's face.

[color=7B68EE]"They said you were dead,”[/color] the blue alien who he recognized asa Juz' said.  [color=burlywood]“I’m here, ain’t I? I don’t get why you did that. You just… Disappeared,”[/color] Matija started. Benny halted by the gym door, looking at them, curious to see where this was going. [color=burlywood]“You… YOU!”[/color] She continued, her tone changing as she delivered a loud slap to the new guy's cheek. Benny flinched from the sudden burst of violence from her and slowly slinked out of the door and into the hallway, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire of whatever was going on between the two, or possibly make her angry by staring and watching what seems to be an argument better done in private. He heard her continue to shout as he went down the hall following Stryker's direction. [color=burlywood]"YOU LEFT WITHOUT A WORD! WE FUCKIN’ THOUGHT YOU WERE DEAD, YA STUPID BOY!"[/color] Matija's voice echoed down the passage. Benny could not help but wonder what relationship the two seemed to have, though it felt like a mother scolding a child. Though they were definitely different species so he wasn't sure what to make of it just yet.

He immediately saw Stryker kneeling over the hatch leading down, looming over a strange green, humanoid figure that looked more plant than human. [color=orange]"Alright don't panic Harriet, you're ok now. Guys, come on, we gotta get her up to Med Bay, right now!"[/color] Stryker ordered as Benny ran over to help them up, and saw fully the unnatural plant-like creature before them. [color=darkgoldenrod]"When the... when tha' bloody Hell did this thing get on ouwr ship?!"[/color] He asked Stryker incredulously as he helped Stryker pick the feminine figure up, knowing for certain that he had never seen anything like her wandering around the ship before. Though considering their captain seemed to know her, it was probably safe to carry and help her, as creepy as the vines were to see moving on their own while this "Harriet" seemed to be mostly unconscious.
