"Is there a way to steer this thing?" Terrance asked for the thousandth time. He had forgotten, for the thousandth time, that he'd already asked that question and that the one he was asking couldnt' respond anyways. The pod had controls in it, but the pod was on autopilot to who-knows where.
"Ulgh, this is gonna take forever. I hate that captain of yours, did you know that?" Terrance snapped like it was all Anya's fault. He glanced up at her and sighed when he once again realized that she couldn't respond. It was like having a one-way conversation with a tv that wasnt' plugged in.

"Mpfhfmphgjs mpghghghgh!" She screeched. Was this guy retarded or something? Why wouldn't he remove the goo from her blinking mouth! She cursed him in her thoughts before totally breaking down. Tears began to stream down her face. they were going to die weren't they? She hadn't even experienced the good life for atleast five minutes. She struggled as she cried, trying to uncuff herself.

Terrance pulled away from her, his eyes widening in alarm. "No, wait! Don't...dont' do that!" he said franticaly, raising his hands and trying to shush her. He could understand most girls but this one screwed him up. And even if he did understand her, there was one thing that he didn't know a thing about, and that was what to do when a girl cried.
"Look, look!" he began, slowly moving behind her. "I'm going to take the handcuffs off, just don't cry." As he proceeded to do just that he added, "Why do I have the feeling that I'm gonna regret this?"

She sniffled in fear and panic. The handcuffs weren't coming off! A small meteorite struck the very end of the right wing on the escape pod, this shaking everything inside it about. Anya slammed hard onto the ground and winced, tears streaming down her face still. If she could get out of this, she could save them! She ahd to get free! She continued to struggle, but it was no use. She cried even more now, realizing the cuffs were jammed. She had to get the goo off, and tell this idiot what to do.

Terrance reared back slightly, thinking that she was having a seisure of some sort. In reality, he was having a sort of seisure himself of panic. He didn't know what to do! And now he had this whiney, sobbing girl at his feet!
"Alright!" he shouted in frustration, getting down by her. He hesitates suddenly. He really didn't want to touch that stuff and he had another feeling that you weren't supposed to use your hands. "Hold still," he warned, raising his plasma gun again and aiming it for the stuff on her face, aiming just off her nose. She was gonna kill him after this...if she was still alive, that is. He steadied his aim and fired nonetheless.

She gasped, panting and sobbing, seeing the goo removed from her face. " Thank-you...of thank-you..." She said, honestly thankful. She stil lthought this guy was dumber than a brick though. She growled and nodded to him. " Hit every other switch. He has it in a code. Just do that, and it should go to voice activated steering! Hurry you idiot!!!" She yelled, still crying.

"Ok, ok, I'm going! Sheesh!" Terrance said, backpeddling into the control pannell. He spun around and began frantically hitting every other switch as she had said. Suddenly his feet slipped out from under him when another large rock scraped the bottom of the pod. He growled in anger and pulled himself back up. Out the window he saw massive asteroids begin to emerge. "Oh crap."
He stood up and pressed switches frantically, his heart poudning. At last he was done. "That it? Computer, respond! Or something! Gah! We're all gonna die!"

" Computer! Configuration, movement! Dodge all incoming asteroids and get out of belt!" She yelled at the top of her lungs. The ship did exactly as it was told, and it wasn't long before they got out of the belt. Anya sniffled and whimpered slightly, before letting out a sigh of relief that they made it out alive. She turned and locked her soft gaze on Terrance.

Terrance had his arms over his eyes but slowly he lowered them and one eye peered open. "We're alive?" he gasped, peering up out of the window. His heart was still beating. And this wasn't a pit of fire, which was where he knew he would have gone if he was dead. That was a work-in-progress that he was trying to change. But anyways, he was alright!
"Holy heck, I love you!" he shouted, suddenly grabbing Anya by the shoulders and hugging her in a great vice-grip hug. "You saved my life! Thank you, you evil witch! Thank you!" He said the nickname like it was a compliment. It didn't occor to him until two seconds too late exactly what he was doing and what the concequences might be.

Anya smiled briefly at the fact they were reluctantly safe. It was a miracle! Though, her happiness was short lived. She found herself being hugged by Terrance. At first she blushed since he was such an appealing man, but thens he realized this is now who owned her according to her captain. " What do you think you're doing?" She scowled slightly. She then went to bite him, but paused shaking her head. " No...you don't deserve that...just let go of me okay?"

Terrance's eyes had been wide as he'd watched her come at him with his teeth, then he slowly relaxed when she pulled back. "Whew! Um..yea, sure thing, baby! Heh, heh...heh..." He stood up and tried to look cool, but his heart felt like it was close to implosion.
He reached into one of the many pockets of his brown cargo pants, fishing around for something. Well, as a mercinary specializing in spying and scouting, he needed the equipment for such. "Here, this'll disrupt the magnetic field on those handcuffs," He said, shoving what actually looked like a small black tazer, an electric current beaming between two metal points. "Maybe. Look, just don't try to kill me and I won't try to kill you, deal?" He needed to sleep. So tired...

Anya hopped to her feet, upon getting her hands freed. She smiled and pulled Terrance by the collar. "This is the only one you'll get!" She said before kissing him on the lips, and then pushing him aside. " Computer, go to Corneria."

Terrance's eyes twitched and he didn't move...at all. Until he suddenly fell over, stiff-legged, on his side in the pod...and didn't get up. He didn't even bother to ask what the heck a Corneria was. Wasn't that a type of cancer or something? No, that was something else...yea...

Anya smirked at Terrance's reaction to the kiss. She gave herself a grin, then a grin and wink to Terrance. She looked back at the computer screen and sighed. Maybe this idiot doesn't own me after all... She thought merrily. "Anywhere you plan on going?"

Somewhere with a place to buy a new ship, Terrance thought.
What came out of his mouth was something like this: "Ulyeaaa...eaaaa-ah." Lucklily it was almost inaudiable so maybe Anya would ignore it.
Feeling was starting to come back to his legs and he numble moved away from her to the back of the pod, resting his back against the cold metal. His eyes were still wide. "You choose...I'm just gonna go to sleep." She really did have a cute little smile. And that bushy squirrell tail was just so fluffy!
