James looked down at Jo. He looked back up at Eric.
"Is she gonna be okay?" he asked.
Eric shrugged, "I honestly have no idea, I'm not an MD or anything. The best bet we've got is to get her back to Earth"
James raised an eyebrow, "I thought we were thousands of light years away."
"We are," Eric nodded, "But if I can get down to the engine room I might be able to fix the problem and get us back home."
"Well then," James said,"let's head out."

They traveled for an hour, making their way through the large ship. And yet they were no closer to their destination, or so Eric felt. Not only were they covering a large amount of ground, but the ship was also scorchingly hot. For an hour there had been silence, but not anymore.
SCRAOOORRR!!!!!
"What in God's name was THAT?" said James.
Eric was worried, "I don't know, but do you want to stick around to find out?"
"Not really, no."
But just then a man came out of he shadows. But there was something wrong with this man. He looked sick for one, very pale, and he was bleeding profusely from his mouth. Eric and James looked at the man as if they knew what would happen next. The man opened his mouth and a shrill, screeching roar came out.
SCRAOOORRR!!!!!
The man then leaped at James with almost supernatural agility. James dodged the man, but only just.
SCRAOOORRR!!!!!
The man then then turned to Eric and snarled. Eric grasped the piece of metal he had pulled out of Jo hours earlier. He didn't know why he kept it with him, but he was now glad that he did. The man ran towards Eric with no humanity left within him. So Eric, in turn, showed him no mercy, and thrust the metal deep into the man's heart. With one last feeble scream, the man died.
