Gray could hardly see for the pain from his beating for stealing food as a guard shoved him into his cell for the night. Oh he had known better, he really had, but the little scrap of fish left from his owners' extravagant dinner mixed with not eating anything for nearly three days made him abandon his training for that brief second. What made the beating particularly sting is that he hadn't even gotten the morsel to his mouth. So along with his stomach cramping from hunger his back was now bloody and raw and the offending hand broken.

The young boy curled up on the hard rock floor and cried silently, wondering if anyone would ever come to rescue him. "Mama...Papa...Big Brother....Where are you?" He whispered, closing his eyes and trying to sleep despite the discomfort and pain.

He dreamt of Boeshane and its night time chill, the scent of it ocean air and the sounds of home. It was a bitter sweet dream one that lead to confusion when he woke up to a bitter cold. Gray slowly opened his eyes and looked around in utter surprise and loss as he stared out at a field of snow in front of him and buildings behind him.

Where in the Universe was he?

Andy grinned. "Of course, man," Andy said almost dismissively. "Already am, unless you don't want me as a friend," he added jokingly. He felt much more positive, now, with Gray's hand patched up and a far more clear sense of trust lingering in the air.

He looked over at Rose and licked his lips, looking back at Gray again. She had been really great with Gray and he owed her one. If he hadn't already thought she was cute, he would've found her infinitely moreso for having been willing and able to help him. This wasn't a situation he had known how to react to, but she'd come in confident and calm.

Rose told Gray that it was time for bed and Andy nodded at him. "Yeah, you said you were tired before, so unless you're still hungry...I'm with Rose on this one. Bedtime for you, bud," he agreed.

	Gray smiled happily, some weight appearing to be lifted of his shoulders as he took Rose's hand. "I'm more tired then hungry right now...but maybe after some sleep...I'd like food and to meet miss Rose's friend." He looked up at her to be sure it was okay. (Reply to this) (Parent)
