[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin gives Mar a confused look.  <I assume those are Earth animals?  I am familiar with many things involving Earth, but not so much their non-sentient creatures.>  Ossanlin wars with himself somewhat...it seems that sacrificing his energy would be somewhat less pleasurable than he had thought.  And it would further delay his ability to ascend...he wanted to attempt to Acquire Tamora from Efaen's morph as soon as possible.  Now was the opportune time.

<If...If I allow you to sample my aura...would you be able to lend me some raw, untainted energy in return?  Perhaps enough to ascend for a few minutes?>  Ossanlin glances surreptitiously at Efaen with a stalk eye, noticing her watching him... <There is something I would like to take care of as soon as possible...but I think it will require ascension.>

[Midnight_Huntress]

A few began to rush up on Silver as she had made her way to the ship. They grabbed her arms and she growled in anger. Since they were touching her she sent shockwaves of lightening through them then lifted her leg to kick each in the face and watched them fall. "I've about had enough of this!"

[Aluminator (Kit)]

With only a second's hesitation, Salem skated through the "opening" in the force field and turned off his hover boots. Blast took off in a flurry of lightning. In the excitement, Salem didn't even notice the group approaching Silver until she'd taken care of them- apparently the force field was beginning to fail. He ran for the ship's ramp, keeping his eyes open for anyone else that would make their way towards Silver- one Taxxon that managed to push its way into the force field was met with a shot from his gun, and exploded in a shower of worm goo and a boom resembling thunder. When Blast said something about "taking the ship," Salem shook his head in disbelief. Trying to fight the small army around them was suicide at best. If Blast wanted to charge headfirst into it, fine, but Salem wouldn't still be alive if he hadn't gotten very good at getting away from fights. In any case, Blast seemed perfectly capable of dealing with dozens of Yeerks at a time on his own. There were bodies flying everywhere outside.

Still, Salem could see a large number of Yeerks now taking a more cautious approach, since they'd seen what they were up against. They were now dropping behind trees and rocks to use as cover, and firing repeatedly at both Blast and the ship with their Dracon Beams.

"You guys coming?" he called out the door to Silver and Blast.

Salem turned around to face Temrash and another Hork-Bajir and a woman he didn't recognize. "Thanks. I owe you big," he said to Temrash with a genuine, if strained, smile. "What're the odds we can move this heap before they fry us?"

[Nero's Fury]

Seeing the group ahead of him suddenly start firing at the same time, he groaned and flipped backwards and turned to run into the force field again.

''Never mind that idea.'' He began as he hurled a bolt of lightning from the clouds straight down in the center of the group closest them.

''If we can somehow get into the air i can pinpoint where their main engines and back up engines are...We can use the ship as an explosive to destroy its own men!''

Those near him could see that even through his pain free charge, he was already sweating, completely outta breath and bleeding worse then before from several minor blasts from Dracon Beams.

[Terenia]

<<I don't know what Ossanlin can or can't do,>> Terenia says honestly, and not without bitterness. <<But I'm not planning on waiting around like some grateful dog, hoping he'll have the perfect solution. That hasn't ->> She cuts off abruptly, despite the fact that she is only speaking internally, at the sound of someone approaching. She glances over her shoulder, immediately spying the man walking towards her. She recognizes him as one of the strangers that had arrived at the bar with Tamora. The person behind him is a stranger.

<<What does he want?>> Terenia wonders. She hasn't spoken to Derrel much, if at all, but the automatic association in her mind to Tamora instantly makes her dislike him.


"No," Trey says with a small smile. "I couldn't fly a ship if my life depended on it. Which means...either I need to find myself someone who can, or someone who is willing to put in the effort to teach me. That could take awhile, though."


Efaen winces slightly as Ossanlin catches her eye, but continues watching. Perhaps it is beneficial if he is aware of the fact that he is being observed, she thinks as she finishes her beverage. Stooping down, she grabs the dish with her weak hands and lifts it to the bar counter. The bartender glances at her expectantly, but she makes no indication of requiring further drink.

[Midnight_Huntress]

Silver took off to try and get into the ship when she fell to the ground with an agonized cry of pain. Something and slashed her hip leaving a gash behind. She huddled into herself from the pain as the enemy drew closer. Her body began to spark slightly as it began to protect her making it impossible to touch her without being fried. .....but that also meant no one could help her either.

[KitsuneMarie]

Illim freezes for a brief second when the man spots him, but Serid's murmured "Move" pushes him forward. It is strange not having Serid's voice in his head. He knows the Andalite well enough, though, that he can imagine what he is thinking.

"Are you Corliss?" Illim asks upon reaching the dark-haired man.


"Yeah," Elayne nods in agreement, frowning. "Well, I guess I won't have to make a final decision about Mar for a while, at least." She ****s her head as she watches him. "Did you ever tell me what happened to your mom?" Raising her palms, she adds, "It's alright if you don't want to talk about it."

[Chad32]

ash cursed as the field began to fail, and Silver was attacked. He rushed over to stand between her and the enemy, attacking with a whirl of blades much faster than what any of the other controllers could keep up with. They weren't highly trained, and those that weren't in the front tried their best to retreat. The first to meet Temrash fell. Silver was enshrouded in electricity, but she couldn't just stay there. "Silver, turn off the shocks, and I'll carry you to the ship." He said as he pulled his weapons and stood in front of her.

Claxter stood and fought off some controllers, resisting the ever growing urge to run for the ship. Silver was still outside, and he didn't want to leave her. He provided cover fire, watching the enemy with all of his eyes.


<I don't think that guy likes me too much.> Derrel said. He didn't know why, but figured the man didn't have any reason to like him either. Not everyone was nice by default.

Taylis took a dracon and started and stayed near Temrash.

[Shenmue654]

Mar grits his teeth slightly. The idea of giving up some of his own collected energy to a mortal was repulsive to his outer self. He could almost hear it voice its displeasure. Mar shudders, clutching himself. ...it didn't matter. While he was alive, he should be able to do what he wants with their food. He had no right to control hi...my God, were they really so distant from one another now? It seemed as though "he" was a different person.

Mar nods very slowly. "...the idea bothers my Highest self, but I'll do it. You obviously have some kind of idea, and I want to help facilitate it. Just...I can give you enough to ascend, but I need to make sure that I do not disappear. He's barely tolerating my continued existence as it is."

[Nero's Fury]

''Everyone! Go! Just get on the ship! Take down anyways near you but then get to the ship! I only have a couple more minutes before im out like before!'' He called as he began gathering energy.

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

<Well, perhaps if it is so dangerous...we should not risk it either way.  Although I know that I can regenerate more than enough energy to ascend in a week's time...this would lead me to believe that you are taking more from my aura than you are losing to allow me to reach my ascended state for a short period of time.  Am I confusing the matter somehow?>  Ossanlin looks questioningly at Mar.  <You may believe I am taking Universal truths well, however they are still new to me and there are many things I do not know.>

<In any event I see you as an individual and I would not ask a friend to risk his existance for me.  Nor do I relish the thought of losing you as said friend.>  Ossanlin sighs a bit.

[Aluminator (Kit)]

Salem had been distracted and hadn't noticed the group that ambushed Silver. This situation was getting very dire, very quickly. Salem watched, awed, as Temrash took down the small group that had attacked Silver, and stared down the rest. They were certainly thinking twice about attacking him. Can't say I blame them, Salem thought.

Salem stayed back, in the ship, ducking out from behind his cover to take shots at the group that was advancing on Silver. Temrash was undoubtedly more skilled than the advancing Yeerks were, but he was severely outnumbered, and now they were ready for him. One of the larger Hork-Bajir charged Temrash with startling speed. Salem took careful aim and fired; the Hork-Bajir exploded, showering Temrash and Silver with chunks of flesh, the very ground around them shaking thanks to the deafening boom the gun gave off when it hit something. The Hork-Bajir's legs, still mostly intact below the knees, fell where he had stood a split second earlier. Salem noted that the Andalite seemed to be holding his own for the moment, and the woman whose name he didn't know seemed to be keeping an eye on Temrash and Silver as well, Dracon in hand. Salem was glad for the additional eyes and shots covering them.

"Silver! Temrash!" he called. "You guys need to move!" He cast a quick glance towards Blast, who was now gathering energy. He certainly seemed to be getting into this fight.

[Chad32]

"I know that Salem!" He said as his position became ever more compromised. There were a lot of them, and it was hard to keep the Hork-Bajir at bay while dodging dracon fire. "We need to get something that won't conduct electricity to move Silver if she can't get up!" He started shooting at trees, trying to get a fire started and hopefully some would fall and create a barricade.

<Silver! Get up! Please get to the ship now!> Claxter yelled with panic in his voice as the enemy got closer.

[Nero's Fury]

Suddenly Blast looked up, ''Wont conduct electricity...?'' And hooked his hammer against his back.

No hands free, he ran over and picked Silver up.

''Everyone who can get us off the ground, get in the ship!'' He said just as he climbed aboard and buckled the woman to her seat.
