She lays her head on her folded arms in front of her. "That was so long ago I don't even remember the number of years.... Now I'm just bored and alone, popping up here and there, blowing stuff up.. You know."
She'd then sit back up and put her elbows onto the table. ''So you are saying, you are the ship? I least at this point. Interesting. I have never seen this make of ship either, the design is similar to our battle ships yet the alloys, controls and power needed to activate it is nothing I have seen. My people are called Yautja, in your tongue, it amusingly means Predator. Females nominate over the males as is our law, I am the leader, a diplomat for a race of warriors. You may call me Zanetta.''
Sighs and looks at the galley, which lights up as several automated systems begin preparing a base military meal. With a cook, the kitchen would be able to provide many many different options for dining, but in this setting it could only provide bare essential nutrition for a multitude of races.
"This ship was made to defend a device in the Madia tengo galaxy, about four thousand eight hundred ninety seven parseks from here. That device gathered up all forms of energy within seven light years and converted the entire race that built it into energy beings, who then left this universe behind. This ship, and ten others like it, along with a collection of 'spire' and 'tower' stations were left behind, derelict and without use, until this one was found on my home colony of Magdra seven. I was a pilot in an army back then, the best, so they decided to use me for to pilot this ship. Only instead of piloting, the ship used me as a sort of battery, dissolving my body and... well, suffice it to say that I've spent a very long time alone for no reason other than because somone was curious."
She'd walk to it and start pressing buttons. ''If I correct, the only thing different with this machine and ours is the language used and button placement...'' She'd explain and then suddenly food came to her and she took it. ''Ok...this is...how would you say it in your language....mind blowing? Yes, that.''
She'd then slowly sit across from Melanie and place the food on the table that was of alien plant matter and meat with had glowing veins on them. She'd then start to grab her mask, pressing the sides and a sound of venting pressure and air could be heard then slowly she took her mask off and put it to the side of her plate.
Her face was a cross of a insect and lizard and her true speech was only clicking sounds and grunts, her eyes were deeply pressed into her skull and were like lizard eyes with slits that went she blinked only a thin layer of moist skin would pop out horizontally as a 'blink' her eyes would a icy blue colour.
She'd then speak she looked at her right fore arm. ''This device is a translator and speech enhancer, it also detects life.''
She'd then start eating with her hands, her sharp teeth munching away...
Her mind was elsewhere as the ship prepared to enter a new area of space.
Zanetta would then walk to one of the splits of Melanie's appearance. ''Thank you for the food. So, where are we heading? Since I am here with you, it would be we, right?''
"-it's easier to get to the location-"
"-in this empty dimension first so-"
"-thats what I'm doing"
She'd then walk back to the splits, he easily towered over them, most would be intimidated even if she was female, if not more so for that reason but she knew Melanie would not react this way, in a sense she found Melanie's company while comforting for this reason.
She'd then turn to the other split and shake her head slowly, her dreadlocks waving with her head, covered with feathers that were decorations for her important to her people. ''No, this is fine, I roam outer space most times, I come and go as I please. I have a second in command and she would notify me of needed assistant, it is my duty to my people to explore. After all Yautja Prime is only only of our homes, the first in fact and so I have to travel to other Yautja populated planets for tasks and meetings.''
"Oh crap, hold on." She walked over to Zanetta and forced her down to the ground, where several of her splits came and held her down as well. "This is unpleasant but not fatal, just hold on while it passes."
A moment later and it would all stop. The Huntress was no longer where it was, but rather where it had been. A temporal mergence as what had been is now what is.
