Anticipation...

[Saek tr'Vosh 0]

Vosh sat quietly. He heard others bantering back and forth. He had nothing to say. Instead, he focused on preparing for the task ahead. If the khre'riov chose this tr'whoever he was, au could bet he would mean trouble for the crew before all was said and done. This exercise would either bring the crew closer together...or utterly destroy it.

 

If only there were na so many variables. He could formulate a strategy if he knew the who what when and where of it all. But, he would have to wait like the rest of them. Well, not exactly like the rest of them. He had memorized the pack with the loose threads on the left harness. That was io of the packs containing water. He still did na know what type of land he would be dealing with...but water seemed a reasonable choice. He wondered if the wide eyed erein had enough sense to do the same. She had na said much in the bay while they were packing them. Na matter, her fate was of na concern at this moment.

 

So, it all came down to this...becoming the hunter and the prey. Perhaps the elements would continue to be kind. He closed his eyes and tried to save all his strength for the challenge on the planet below.
