(Y/n) ran down a long corridor with as much speed as she could muster, heart pounding wildly in her chest while the alarms blared loudly. Ever since she got captured by an alien and was held prisoner she'd been plotting her escape, it just took a long time before the sentry with a glitch arrived to give her dinner. (Y/n) was determined to escape the massive ship no matter what, even if she had to jump out of the nearest airlock which would lead to her death, although she didn't want it to come to that. The young woman's hair flicked behind her while she ran through each hallway in hopes of finding an escape pod; she had to get out of there before she got recaptured, otherwise the galran warlord in charge would kill her. She skidded to a halt when some sentries turned the corner and started firing their blasters at her, just barely dodging each shot as she zigzagged down a different hallway until she turned another corner.

Her eyes brightened up when she finally found the escape pods and (Y/n) could hear the sentries coming closer, she felt breathless after running for such a long time, but she didn't waste any time and quickly dashed into one right before she closed the pod and ejected it into space. After (Y/n) escaped the galra cruiser she tried her best to figure out how to get back to Earth, unfortunately the controls were all in galran. There were several buttons in the escape pod she was in and (Y/n) didn't know which ones to push, so she decided to rest a little before pushing any buttons. Thankfully there was a place to rest in the escape pod, a small bed just big enough for either one galra or two humans. She'd been through so much that day and having the ability to sleep in peace was the best thing for her, having a few hours of real sleep felt refreshing.

(Y/n) slept for over eight hours, the best hours of sleep she'd had in a very long time; the prison cells aboard the galra cruiser weren't exactly the most comfortable. After waking up from her blissful rest she knew that she would need to eventually find something to eat and drink, there were ration bars and hydration packs in the little cupboard but they wouldn't last forever. When she did get around to pushing buttons (Y/n) stayed away from the red one, in every movie she had ever seen during her life pressing the red button would cause something to self-destruct. (Y/n) tried pushing a green button, but then some sort of gas came out of the vents and quickly filled the pod. If the gas had been poisonous then it would have killed her, although it only made her feel sleepy and very fatigued.

"Scrap!" (Y/n) cursed loudly while trying to get the gas to stop, pushing the same green button over and over again.

Pushing the green button didn't do any good since it didn't stop the gas, but it didn't exactly make it come out faster, either. (Y/n) pushed several more buttons, hoping something would help, unfortunately nothing worked and the gas eventually stopped on its own. She yawned as she started to feel even more sleepy and she realized the gas she released was actually sleeping gas, she should have never pushed the green button. Eventually (Y/n) walked back to the bed, laid down and passed out before falling into a deep sleep. Little did (Y/n) know that this was only the beginning of the long journey of a lifetime, one that would lead her to the man she was destined to fall in love with, although until someone found her she would be in a deep slumber because of the long lasting effects of the sleeping gas.
