Chapter 17: His alien returns.

Murry yawned as he walked down the halls. The Nebos that covered every inch of the spaceship looked inviting. He could sit down anywhere right now and fall asleep.

When they reached Kel’s rooms, Murry was ready to crash. After he was let into the place by Rhylent, he crawled into bed. Sleep eluded him. Was Kel alive? How long before they found him? Murry tossed and turned and tangled his legs in the silks. What if they didn’t find him and Murry didn’t even help anyone?

The Nebos got annoyed with his spinning. The robe and pants slipped off as if the fabric were in a huff. Murry was left naked on top of the covers. After a few hours, Murry rose. He walked to the table and asked for warm milk or some drink to calm his nerves.
