"Thanks for coming man," Skull told his mysterious friend.
The group of friends had suddenly been transported onto a ship. It had only taken the ship a few minutes to get within earths range.
"Tommy?" Alpha asked about the man on the floor.
"I'm sorry Alpha, we were ambushed, at least he wasn't in pain thanks to Elle," Skull said.
"This may not be a good time for introductions, but this is Alpha and I am Andros, and you are on the Astro Megaship," the mysterious man told the group.
"Can you help her?" Jack asked holding up Raven.
Aiden was busy comforting Elle. None of them had seen someone die in front of them, so they were all in a bit of shock.
"Let's see what we can do," Andros said nodding.
Alpha took Tommy off to another room, Elle and Aiden stayed in the control room, while Jack and Skull helped Raven walk to the medical room. After examining her wounds, while she came in and out of consciousness, Andros cleaned the wounds as best as possible, gave her medicine to ease the pain and help knock her out, and hooked her to the healing chamber.
"How long will she be in there?" Jack asked of his friend.
"Well, I was in there three weeks," Skull confessed, "And our friend Carlos was in there at least a month."
"My friend Zhane was in there for 2 years," Andros mentioned.
"Well, I doubt it will take that long, right Andros?" Skull said trying to point out that that would be the last thing Jack needed to hear.
"Yeah, she'll be better soon," Andros comforted, "there's not much else we can do here, you should bandage your leg though, Skull."
Skull remembered his leg wound, "Yeah, probably."
After Skull was done, he limped to the kitchen with Andros so they could talk.
"Before, I thought we lost Carlos, and that was so hard, but luckily, he was fine. Now though, I don't know what to do. Of course I am sad, but I'm more worried about the team. I just recently joined them. Now though, Tommy gave me his morphing ring. I don't feel like I can replace their leader, I've not gotten to know Elle or Aiden enough, and I can tell Jack is wary of me because I got close to Raven, who is his best friend. If we get attacked soon, Raven will be out, and I'm not sure if the others will have the courage to fight after this. I just don't know what to do," Skull admitted putting his head between his hands.
After a few minutes of contemplation, Andros replied, "The world is depending on them, on you, and you guys will need to figure a way to work as a team. I see what you mean about leadership; maybe put it to a vote, in a day or two, so they can have time to process this. I know you guys can do this, but each team is different and what worked for us, might not work for them."
Skull nodded in response thinking about what he had to do.
