i was losing all my hair. my forehead was expanding, and my part was widening. i was upset. then i was on a starship, something like the death star from star wars. everything was going fine, until the people i was with figured out the malicious nature of our invitation to the star ship - our hosts ate people.

all of the food we'd been served was either people or it was plants grown from nutrients gotten from human bodies. we started wandering around, trying to act normal, while looking out for ways to escape. i passed by a giant ballroom, now dark, and thought it would be a great place to hide later.

somehow we made it to the surface of a planet and tried to escape. huge boulders were being shot into the sky and then exploding, raining shrapnel down upon us. shane was hit in the shoulder by a piece of the shrapnel. he was hurt by it, but it didn't do any serious harm. the rock was heavy but malleable, the chunk that hit him had an impression of his arm, even the grain of the fabric of his shirt. it was like metal clay. they weren't trying to kill us right away, just trying to frighten us and bludgeon us slowly to death.
