Practical Problems.

Jacky was oblivious to everything going on. As soon as he heard the 5 minute warning, he ran to his quarters again, quickly grabbing an electric razor. In a panic, he sliced his hair down to a buzzcut. He looked in the mirror.

"I look like a complete smeghead." He said to himself.

"You finally agree!" Justin said, suddenly entering the room.

"Smeg off." Jacky said.

"You swear too much." Justin said.

Jacky ignored his statement.

"So... what do you think of this Jazz guy?" Justin asked.

"Jaxx." Jacky corrected.

"Whatever. What do you think of him?"

"I think he's a fake."

"A fake? What do you mean?"

"The first thing he does when he shows up is try to slaughter an entire species with no signs of wanting to stop. Then he turns around and acts all goody-goody. He's faking it."

"To be fair, they WERE trying to kill us."

"and these CLONES. What are we supposed to do with them when we don't need them?"

"We could... you know..." Justin said, slowly.

Jacky eyed Justin carefully.

"Throw them into space?" Justin finished.

"That's murder." Jacky said.

"They're clones."

"They're alive."

Justin hopped on the top bunk.

"I don't trust him when there's 1 of him. Imagine when there's more. We almost lost to the GELFs. He casually annihilated them. We can't take several of him if he snapped."

"I've never seen you act serious before." Justin said. "Not since you wailed on me with a wrench."

"Sorry."

Justin did a double take.

"...Sorry?" Justin repeated.

"You erased her hologram. I thought you were despicable. I still do. But I shouldn't have done what I did."

"Oh..." Justin said.

Jacky stretched his arms.

"At any rate... I guess I should get going." Jacky said.

Jacky reached into his drawer and got a secondary pair of goggles.

"You have 2 pairs?" Justin asked.

"They came in a 2 pack. I'm certainly not wearing the other ones until they are hyper-cleaned." Jacky said.

The pair chuckled.

"We'd better go see the others, I suppose." Jacky said.

Jacky walked face first into the door.

"What the...?" He mumbled.

"The door must have gotten stuck. Stand aside!" Justin said, hopping down. "I'm an Engineer. That means I solve problems."

Justin examined the door casually, and then punched it, pulling his hand back in pain.

"It's stuck." Justin said.

"We're trapped?!" Jacky replied.

"Seems so."

"What do we do?!"

"What kind of movies do you have to watch?"
