[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin nods to Corliss as his question goes unanswered.  He moves towards the back bulkhead and commands the door to open, trotting through.  It appeared to be a small pool room.  He looks down at the grayish sludge and sees Terenia's body attached to nodes through her palps.  Ossanlin sighs as he moves to the next bulkhead and opens the door again.  He moves progressively further back through the ship until he reaches Claxter, and raises a silver eyebrow, his silver tail-blade glinting in the harsh shipboard lighting as it flicks back and forth.  His eyes have retreated to a softer glow as he regards the Warrior.  He notices Claxter's tail barely attached.

<On your hooves Warrior, this is no time to be taking your ease.>  Ossanlin does his best to keep his eyes soft, but his tone of thought is firm enough for a command and brooks no nonsense as he urges Claxter.

(fixed Chad.  sry, didn't see that.)

[Chad32]

(Actually Claxter already morphed and demorphed the wound away. He's just angsting in the corner.)

Claxter was facing away from the door, and turned his stalkeyes to see Oss. He had stopped shaking from what happened with the Hork-Bajir, but he started shaking again slightly in fear of the brutal punishment he thought he might endure. Suddenly he realised how small the room was and how little his chances were of escape. He turned around, but his tail was low with shame.

<I am sorry. I acted stupidly. I allowed Efaen to wander away from the group, and allowed myself to be hurt and abandoned her. I am unworty as any kind of Warrior. I bring shame and disgrace to all I associate with.> He said without looking Oss in the eyes. <All my training has been futile. I told her that I would remain beside her and protect her but I can't even protect myself.>

[Myitt]

((Sorry if I missed anyone's posts, I'm on my phone and have no other net access until late tomorrow x3  I'll just post then...in the meantime feel free to have Myitt and Corliss follow the Imperial guy, in their ships, or whatevs ))

[Hunter]

((gah... stupid IRL getting in the way of my RAFing...))

As the video was stopped, John snapped out of his little train of thought. At the prospect of working with the other pirates, he quickly said "I've got nothing to loose, do I? I'm in."

With that, he took another small-ish swig from his glass of rum.

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin shakes his head slightly.  <The only failure I see here is in your attitude right now.  When you saw the controllers, did you turn and bolt, or did you try to fight them?>

[Agent 128]

"Yeah, it's because I'm a Yeerk." Suddenly, Elipir's host started whining again: <Yeerk? Why not call yourself a thief for stealing my body and reducing me to this!> Sigh... this again, time to put that idiot in his place. <Alright, first of all, you call yourselves space pirates! Second, Your species makes a living off of stealing from starships! Also, if it weren't for me, You wouldn't have been able to get off of Zebes!> That made him shut up instantly. "Forgot to mention, my host just happens to be a space pirate, but as long as I'm inside, He's harmless."

[Alic]

(sorry, busy too. Last night was just aweful and I was down, didn't need to raf. Tonight my sister and I went to avatar 3d @ IMAX and we didn't get home til 1:30. Post as soon as I wake up)

[Chad32]

<I attempted to engage the Human controller in combat, but as I approached I was caught off guard by the Hork-Bajir. Even though I knew the first had allies with him. Then I froze up and ran instead of using my shredder.>

[Midnight_Huntress]

"Just from the small bit I seen, I get really bad vibes from that place." Silver said and shivered with anger. "I'm in, and don't say that you just got me back, and you aren't risking it." she said with a mischivieous and laughing smile. "I made this far, I can make it farther."

[Gaz]

"I don't doubt that," Morgan said. "Ok, we're off to destroy a CG lab that performs genetic experimentation on unwilling human lab rats. Before I make any more plans, I want to know if anyone else is coming."

"How many ships are we taking?" Gaz asked. "Just yours or should I take a couple on my ship?"

"We'll decide that in shortly," Morgan said.

[Chad32]

"I'll come along to help." Temrash said. "I can come with you or bring my own ship."

[Luke Skywalker (Ossanlin)]

Ossanlin nods.  <So you engaged the enemy.  You were ambushed not once but twice.  You nearly lost a limb, an injury that would put anything on the ground.  It seems you may have panicked, but that's quite understandable given the circumstances.  The way I see it, you're embarassed because you think Efaen will think less of you now.  Your choices in battle were understandable, there is a difference between bravery and foolhardiness.  You did have options...shredders and morphing among them, but what you are lacking here is experience.  Once you have some battles under your belt, your reactions will become better, and your analyses will improve.  The heat of battle is quite different from training simulations.  Nothing is really under control in a battle.  No one's standing in a cubicle controlling things, and you're not guaranteed safety.  Once you get used to the battle situation, these things will come.>

Ossanlin turns to walk back forward through the ship, but keeps his stalk-eyes on Claxter.  <And you should not care so much about what one female thinks.  After all, she's not your mate.>  'Yet' he adds silently to himself.  <And for being so concerned for her safety, I'm surprised that you're moping back here.  You should speak with her to make sure she's alright, she was almost just forced back into Yeerk slavery.  The life of an honorable military andalite is to give greatly of oneself and expect nothing in return.  There's no time for you to rest now, we have a crisis to manage and you have to help.>

[Chad32]

<Yes Prince Ossanlin.> Claxter said and walked out of the compartments. He found Efaen and approached her. <Are you alright Efaen? You are uninjured, yes?> He asked. He was still a bit sheepish, but he needed to push his inner feelings to the back of his mind in order to move forward.<It is good that Alinciana was there for us. Thank you Alinciana. You did well.>

[Terenia]

Efaen, who had been distracted by trying to decipher the Yeerkish computer readouts at the helm of the ship, pulled herself away when Claxter emerged. A feeling of relief washed over her. She had been worried that he had not been able to morph in time.

<I am uninjured,> Efaen says, avoiding the question as to whether or not she is alright. She wrings her hands to hide the tremors, <I am glad that you are safe.>

Terenia remains silent in her pool, listening to the conversations throughout the ship. She chooses only to address Efaen, in regards to Corliss' comment about a transmission.

<<Efaen, if the Yeerks think that you are free...>> she lets the implication hang, fear in her own voice.

<<I know, Terenia,>> Efaen responds privately. She gives Claxter a smile, but she seems distracted.

[Chad32]

<I apologize Efaen. I know that you told me to leave, and I did, but it was partly because I was afraid. I should not have left you. They may have captured and reinfested you with someone who is even worse than Terenia. Now we have a large problem, and I don't know if I am brave enough to protect you. I may require further actual battle experience.>
