The cargo ship was flying through the dark space and even though they were only with the two of them, both Eto and Veronica hadn't spoken after leaving Borner.

Veronica was focussing on flying the ship while trying to accept that she was not gonna see her parents for a while. Eto on the other hand was busy staring out of the window into space.

After a while he sat back, looked to Veronica and thought it was time that they spoke.

'You okay?' he asked quietly. Veronica let out a smile while some tears came from her eyes.

'I was hoping you would talk first' she said, still looking in front of her.

Without thinking about it, he said: They are gonna be fine.

Veronica turned to him, with the smile still on her face and she nodded. 'I know they will.'

Both looked through the window again without anything in sight.

'So what is the plan?' Eto asked, having no idea where they were.

Veronica sighed. 'Best we can do is get away from Borner as soon as possible but if I look at the status of the ship, he is not capable of bringing us all the way to Etoile.'

Eto looked at the screens where different numbers, colours and signs he didn't know were displayed.

'So again. What is the plan?' he said confused so he turned to Veronica. She still smiled.

'The nearest planet we can get to is one called Capgelu. I believe I heard of that planet before. Many travellers land there to get up on fuel or rest a bit.'

'Sounds great' Eto responded and he put his legs on the edge in front of him, going into a relaxed position.

'The only problem we can encounter is that there would be nobody to help us fix the ship or get us a ride. And even if we find somebody, I don't think you have any cash?'

She looked at Eto who had his eyes closed, smiled and said 'nope.'

Veronica sighed again, even though she expected it.

'Can you search the ship if you can find some food or materials. Maybe there is something we can sell for some money.'

'Can't you search for it?' Eto asked while he was still in his relaxed position.

'Someone has to fly the ship!' Veronica screamed, now getting angry and she kicked Eto out of his chair. Not wanting to anger her even more he quickly crawled to the back to find some stuff.

In the little hangar where normally the cargo would be, Eto only found some small boxes which luckily were unlocked.

He opened them to find some safety jackets and some boxes containing some sort of food. He looked at it but he could not tell what the white bars could be.

'I found something' he said to Veronica while moving the box into the cockpit and showing it to Veronica.

She put on the autopilot for now and looked at what was inside the box.

The safety jackets she put aside but she looked happy seeing the bars.

'You know what they are?' Eto asked and she nodded.

'Travel bars. Full of the necessary vitamins for travellers who are traveling for a long time and don't have time to cook.'

Eto looked at a bar and decided he wanted to know what they tasted like.

He opened one and took a bite, only to spit it out again.

'Disgusting. You call this food?' he said, trying to spit the sour taste out of his mouth. Veronica couldn't help herself and laughed about it.

'It's not meant to be tasty. It is meant to be helpful.'

Eto, still spitting, looked at her sourly.

'It should be tasty. It is food' he mumbled and Veronica laughed at him.

'There is a difference between good tasty food and quick and practical food' she said but Eto seemed to not listen. He kept looking sourly at the bars while thinking of the good food he had ever eaten.

Veronica closed the box and put it aside.

'It's something for now, but we have to look for ways to get money or food' she said, taking her place again in the chair.

Eto grabbed the chair next to her and put his legs back in front of him.

'Best we can do now is put it on auto pilot and try to get some sleep.'

The moment she said it, Eto realised he was exhausted.

He looked at his arm and thought back at the short fight with the knight.

He yawned and so did Veronica. They both decided to close their eyes and took as much rest as they could.
