The four NX Class Starships continued at Warp Two searching for somewhere to repair themselves while they looked for food and fuel to keep themselves going.

Mining Raw Dilithium on another planet was not hard, but Processing Dilithium into fuel takes time and the crew still needed to collect food for themselves also.

After finding an empty planet, the Captan River Song Twins offered to start the Dilithium Mining Operation while Commander Jonathan Archer leads the search for food sources into the woods instead.

Two Dead Palukoo, River Song frowned as she saw the large spiders being cooked over Jonathan Archer's campfire nearby.

"All your great hunters found are Palukoo Spiders and some Apple Trees?" River Song asked bewilderedly.

"The Spiders appear to be everywhere, but I had Phlox test everything before we started eating them." Jonathan Archer explained.

"I know that Palukoo Spiders are safe to eat, but I thought you would have found something else by now!" River Song snapped at him.

"My Hunting Parties are doing their best!" Jonathan Archer protested.

"I'm sorry, but we all have been under stress lately." River Song says while kicking herself for snapping at him.

"It is alright, we will just keep looking for something larger than the Palukoo Spiders, I take it you ran into them beforehand?" Commander Archer asked.

"Yup, the Palukoo Spiders are hunted for food on several planets, but not everyone likes eating spiders." River Song admits making an unhappy face at the idea.

"The Spiders are the largest thing we saw on this planet so far besides the Salamander Sized Grasshoppers that the Palukoo eat themselves." Commander Jonathan Archer says while River Song looked sick at the idea of eating Huge Insects.

"So our choice is Huge Grasshoppers or Huge Spiders as our main food source now?" River Song asked worriedly.

"Until we discover something better to eat, that is all there is." Jonathan Archer confirmed.
