Across The Stars

Innifer
Earth sucks. Not the planet. The people. Practically all physical contact is simulated, my boyfriend just broke up with me, and I’m making a living dancing behind glass in hopes that men with throw credits at me.
I want to leave…
So I do and I drag my friend with me… into space… to the Nexus. The city in the sky. Sure, I’m starting at the bottom and I had to lie about finishing my college education to get here, but it was worth it.
…And then he showed up. A tall alien man in a black suit and a helmet I can’t even see his face through, but he sets my body on fire.

Humans. They’re a strange breed. We’re all fibers from the same cloth, but you’d scarcely realize it. In truth, they never intrigued me much. They don’t seem ready to enter into galactic affairs.
