“I know you warned me and all, but you just about killed my ass in there,” I said walking with stiff legs down the hall.

“Well, we’re finished. Now we can ‘chill out’ as you say,” she mocked.

“You know despite my awesome physique, this isn’t necessarily my real body, right?” I explained.

“I have no idea what you mean by that,” she said, taking a swig of water from a bottle.

“Okay, it is my real body, but not really. Dotty enhanced it via the ship. Have you had any enhancements done by chance? No offense, I was only wondering is all,” I said, realizing how that could be taken the wrong way.

“None taken, but no, I have not. I do get that question a lot with the conglomerate troopers. Consider yourself lucky to have one of the best mentors in the galaxy,” Seya said with a large grin.

“I thought you would have learned a bit more humility having been a princess and all…” I said dryly.

“That was sarcasm…” she replied. “It’s all a matter of dedication, in all aspects of life. Considering your size, I am sure that once you actually see your ‘new’ body as your own, then you will become stronger. Maybe even stronger than me—maybe,” she joked.

Later that evening, after Dotty and I set up the entertainment system, Seya gave me first pick of the movie from the tens of thousands of movies available in its library. Watching a movie with an entire cast of aliens was a lot to take in. It was probably better starting off with something easier to follow, like a romantic comedy—if there was such an equivalent—but following the finer details with my insufficient knowledge of the species’ traits and customs was concerning.

“Does this sound good?” I asked, showing Seya my selection, a movie called Moro: Hard Kill.

She rolled her eyes at me and sighed.

“We don’t need to watch this one, I mean it doesn’t make much difference to me,” I admitted.

“It’s okay, I don’t typically watch movies anyway,” she said, as she adjusted the hot plate of food in front of her.

“Okay, we can try it out then,” I said and selected the movie. I sat near her at the table and messed with my own plate of food, a dish that looked like noodles of some sort and meat that tasted like lamb. Overall, I’d give it a seven out of ten from new things I was trying so far.

The story started out as a slow slice of life film, but it ramped up quickly into a classic revenge flick. The main character was this tough looking, bluish-green alien that had his entire family killed off by some bad guys. I didn’t know if they were the mob or something, but he starts hunting down all these bad guys one at a time trying to get closer to finding the boss and in many ways, playing off the bad guys’ weaknesses.

The action was a bit over the top and honestly gorier than I expected something like this to be.
