Scavengers Reign

Levi!

I need you to follow me.

Hurry up, the Demeter is right there!

You've just been acting so strange lately.

This is Azi Narine

of the planetary freighter ship Demeter 227.

I am marooned on planet Vesta, seeking rescue.

Is anybody out there? Over.

Hey, Levi, come here. I need you.

Sam!

Aah!

Okay.

Make sure it's straight, okay? And don't go too high.

I won't.

Seriously, I don't want it to look weird like last time.

It looked perfectly precise to me.

It actually feels kind of nice when you do that, Levi.

Okay, let me return the favor.

A little routine maintenance.

Open up your hatch.

I feel fine, Azi.

But okay...

if you'd like.

Uh, Levi, I -- I think it would be best

if we open you up all the way, all right?

Of course.

But you sound distressed.

Is everything okay?

Yeah.

I just think we need to give you a deeper clean.

Aah!

Aah!

Aah!

I know, I know.

I'm sorry. I've got nothing.

It's fine.

You know, I'm busy, too, but...

I don't know. Never mind.

I guess it's my mistake for having any expectations.

I said I'm sorry.

Honestly, I'm just worried this arrangement isn't working out.

Here we go.

Aah!

What was that? Did you just flinch?

I'm not sure. I was reacting to a strange sensation.

What kind of sensation?

I don't know. It's something I've never felt before.

Okay.

I'm -- I'm gonna keep going, all right?

Aah!

What?! What is going on?

This doesn't feel good.

What about that?

You're touching me with your hand.

What's it feel like?

Nice, I think.

No, no, no, no, that's not right.

I'm gonna shut you off, okay,

take a closer look at this stuff.

Wait!

You shouldn't be able to feel anything at all,

especially if it hurts when I touch it.

Okay, Azi.

Sam!

Sam!

Oh, my God.

Must have been the storm that got 'em

or something else.

I -- I guess it could have been anything out here, right?

Hmm.

Well, we should take what we can.

Stop. Ursula, please.

I already searched them. These were my friends.

Do you get that?

I-I'm sorry.

Maybe we should just go.

We can't do anything for them now.

I know, but we gotta do something.

We can't just leave them here like this.

It was too big for me.

It would have torn me to shreds.

The answer is no.

Just, please, check it again. It'll be fine.

No. Kamen, this new route is risky as hell.

I'm not taking us anywhere near that unstable sun

under any circumstances.

I don't think you understand what's at stake.
