"As I said, one of the only jobs open to someone like myself is smuggling," Morgan said. "We'll take just about any job from someone, as long as they can pay. Fights can break out, often do. Staying out of sight of the Central Government is always a priority. If we go planet side, it's usually outer planets."

"Well then the only difference that would be from the life I had out on my own, would be that I would be woring in the Family business now." she smiled.

((I wanna take this opportunity to wish the whole GESB and everyone on RAF a very Merry Christmas...or Christmahannakwanzu kah to be politically correct. x3 You guys have been my friends and my community for nearly a year now and I owe you a lot for helping me get through that weird and difficult year. ))

"That's what I think," Keshin said in response to Corliss' comment. "That there's more going on here than we realize. Terenia doesn't seem to be the most open person here, and I think she's probably hiding a number of things. But then again, so is literally everyone in this **** hole of a Bar. Joanne says I should stay out of it, but the whole situation bugs me. Like some of her comments on why she needs Efaen's body so bad, and her very strong desire to be vague about what's happening to her. I know that her situation is really pretty bad, but a lot of people here have situations that suck and even they have been more explicit. It's like you've had to pry each fact out of her with a wrench."

[Terenia]

((only a year? Wow, I feel like I've known you forever!!!))

Efaen kicks her legs involuntarily as she slowly begins to regain consciousness.



((just moving it along a bit...))

<I think I found the stimulants.> Claxter said. He had stopped working with the pool in the ship now that Parker had come with a different container, and had rifled through the nearby pouch. He took out a needle after translating the Yeerkish, and administered it to Efaen. <She should wake up soon after this. Just be ready for whatever might happen.>

[Myitt]

Corliss peers outside at the parked ships.  "They've been out there a long time," he murmurs.

((Merry Christmas guys!  Kelly you rock, in fact you guys all rock    Hope you're having an awesome day!))

[Terenia]

It does not take long for the stimulants to take effect. Efaen kicks a few times, and her stalk eyes open to half-mast, looking dazed. She does not hop to her feet immediately, but she is definitely conscious, albeit confused and disoriented.

[Gaz]

"Well," Morgan said, "it's a living."

That was when something in Morgan's pocket beeped. He pulled out a small pad and smirked.

"Gaz is on her way back," he said, "surprised she was able to send out a message from the white. Must be close."

[Chad32]

Zoshonel sets her down backs off a bit to give her some space.

<Efaen. Terenia is in the pool and we have freed you of your bonds. Can you control your body? You will be fine now. We will not allow you to be reinfested against your will.> Claxter says gently.

[Terenia]

Slowly Efaen's main eyes open. For a moment they stare in different directions, unfocused. Then they find a point of concentration - Claxter - and focus slowly. At first everything she sees is fuzzy, but after a few moments she can make out the shape of an Andalite, a familiar Andalite. She feels a vague urge to retch, but closes her hooves tightly.

In the releasing of her bonds, Efaen had fallen to her knees. Now that she is conscious she slowly, shakily, pulls herself to her feet. Once she is standing she looks at Claxter, ignoring the non-Andalites nearby.

<I...thank you...young warrior,> Her thought-speak is tentative, as if she is unsure that he will actually hear her.

[Chad32]

<You are welcome. Although because of my efforts to free you, I have endangered Terenia's sister's existance. when you have the energy, I would like to speak about her. I will take responsibility for freeing her from Yeerk control. If you wish, we can move to the bar where we will feel more comfortable.>

[Midnight_Huntress]

"Ah, so I finally get to meet her, then." she said happily. She wondered how Gaz would be. If anything like the people she has met today she knew she would like her.

[Gaz]

"Gaz is quite the character," Morgan said. "So is her cousin Fletcher. I suppose it runs in the family."

[Midnight_Huntress]

"So are we talking random and nutty, outgoing and independant, or whacky with a touch of crazy?" she teased lightly.

[Terenia]

Efaen looks down at the pool where Terenia is feeding. Her first instinct is to slice her tail into the pool, through the sludgy liquid and deep into Terenia's body, slicing her in half. She quells this desire, Terenia's final plea slowly reforming in her brain. The human actually had made a bit of sense, and it was not as if she was particularly harmful at the moment. Shaking her head to clear it, Efaen addresses Claxter.

<Yes, it would be a good idea to speak of the current circumstances. However, I wish to speak to your prince.> As Efaen regains consciousness her thought-speak becomes increasingly formal, as though she is regaining a lost form of communication and determined to execute it perfectly.
