The escape pods of the fallen Resisty ship flew away from the blue planet. This was supposed to go so well, and at one point it was. He would've been able to steal the snacks from the Massive and feed his friends. But somehow, everything went downhill in the end. He failed. He failed himself, he failed his planet. But most of all, he failed his crew, his only friends left. Lard Nar didn't know where he would go. He buried his face in his knees. The only other person with him, was Shloonktapooxis, who couldn't bear to be without him.

"Captain" He whispered. "P-please don't be sad. You tried your best, really!" slowly, the Vortian looked up at his old friend,

"I didn't try hard enough to succeed, apparently. And look where we ended up. We don't even have a ship now, Shloo. I don't even know where were going to go next" Shloo moved closer, nuzzling Lard Nar's face with his.

"Hey, we can always find a new ship, somehow! And we can always try getting back at those nasty Irkens again! I promise you haven't failed any of us" He wiggled into his captain's arms as best as he could in the cramped escape pod.

"You definitely haven't failed me." Lard Nar cradled the cone alien in his arms, hugging him as tight as he could.

"Thank y-you, Shloo. You're my best friend. I would be so... lost without you."

The two aliens stared out of the tiny window, gazing at the vast space in front of them as they waited to find out where they would go next.
