[Gaz]

(Oops again. Sorry. lol. He was just referring to everyone in the vicinity of the ship.)

[Midnight_Huntress]

¤ with that we have no excuse for being lost lol nice job love ¤

Silver glared at the man. She nodded to Parker to let him know show she still had it. When he said his name she had a vague memory come to her. It was him who took her from Fletcher! She gave a hiss after her he introduced himself. She had pulled her bow free and she had her illusions. She stepped closer to her mother amd listened to them banter back and forth. It gave her a chance. She narrowed her eyes and concentrated hard. She pictured the guards in her mind. She was going to have to do a large mass illusion. She made each guards vision one by one blackout. Theu would see a dark void with their worst fear all around them. She had never done one this big so she hoped she could hold it long enough for them to escape.

<He need Yeerk. You know someone?> Jagill asked Temrash.

<I know plenty of Yeerks who would do this mission. The problem is, would he let any in? Right now I'm thinking Kelvin 271. He works in intelligence, and can find that parent that isn't under Visser 25.>

"I know Yeerk that will help. I trust him. He help us get your parents." Jagill told Dara.

Keshin carefully watches and feels the dogfight playing out between the two ships. He's sort of disturbed by how effortlessly Al is handling the entire affair. Any Yeerk ship other than a high-defense Pool ship or a more well-equipped Blade ship would have been fried by now. <What kind of weapons and armaments does this thing even have?>

<I dunno. The rebels're the best pilots here, and even they couldn' last this long. It's like Al knows what's comin'.>

<That's pretty dangerous. Didn't he say he comes from a universe similar to our own, though? With Andalites and Yeerks and whatnot?>

Keshin glances at Salem with a perplexed look on his face and says, "Just where did you get this ship, anyway? Is it commonplace to have something this bizarre where you're from?"
*****************************************************************************************************
Mar looks up at the sky oddly and feels the ships out for any auras. There are roughly two aboard one of the ships, though there's an electrical disturbance which suggests another to him. Another ship carries three or four, one of which is instantly recognizable as his Precious. Mar gestures toward the ship. 

"Myitt is in some sort of fight up there. I...assume that she can handle it. If I were to go up there myself, I would be shot. And then I would not be able to conjure another incarnation for some time. The location of this place makes that quite difficult. At least I am...getting used to the helplessness now. But how can I reconcile my need to protect what's mine with my inability to do so?"

[KitsuneMarie]

The smoke in the ship is now causing Tora to cough almost constantly, and the warning lights that are starting to flash are more than a little disconcerting. I am the servant of the People... The thought enters her mind, completely unbidden, like a reflex. Forcing it back, she shouts back to Myitt once she has the breath to do so, "Ready!" Her hands grip the controls, fingers hovering over the triggers.

[Aluminator (Kit)]

Salem smirked again at Keshin's question. "Yes and no. A lot of this ship is based on stuff in our original universe. The engines are actually mostly original. But the ship itself is custom. It's my baby." he said proudly, running his hand tenderly along his armrest. "I add to it whenever I can. This thing's got fingerprints of the IPA, the Janapa, the Maltoris Kazin, the Eirodyne, the Serylians, the Pemalites, even a bit of Andalite tech. I don't like being caught unprepared."

"Crazies coming around again," Al said, as he angled the ship upward and continued accelerating towards space.

"What the hell'd I ever do to you?" Salem yelled at the projection of Temrash's ship on the wall. "Okay, I'm charging the magneton array," he said, his hands streaking across the screens in front of him. "Hail them again."

[Darth Revan]

Thordon shook his head, "There is no need. It is the reason of my existance to help those in need. I exist solely to better the lives of those less fortunate than myself." He lowers his head in a slight depression, "Though I do confess I miss my love. This is longest I've ever been away from her. I hope she is well."


Parker noted Silver's signal that she still held the Bubble Shield. He saw her eyes go sort of blank, as though she was concentrating on something not there. He wasn't sure what she was doing, but hopefully it would work.

[Gaz]

(When reading this, please don't think I'm trying to be difficult. I just figured that up to this point the CG has come across as rather wimpy and it seemed hard to believe that something so easily defeated would stay in charge of so many planets for so long. I wanted to bring across a character to show why the CG has lasted for nearly 200 years.  Desmond don't mess around. For some reason I picture him sounding like Grand Moff Tarkin from Star Wars. All arrogant and sure of himself. He's not used to defeat.)

Desmond crossed his arms and looked unimpressed.

"I see that you assume after your attack on that facility of ours that this will be easy," he said. "I guarantee you that I am not so foolish. I take my job quite seriously, let me assure you. I did not rise to where I am today by making amateur mistakes."

It could be noticed then that a few of the soldiers hadn't moved since Silver started her attack.

"Some of my men here," said Desmond as he gestured, "are some of the top rated psi-soldiers. Your abilities are impressive, my dear, and had you not left us so soon they could have been far greater."

Desmond's focus shifted to Parker. "As for your bullets. Do not assume me to be a simpleton. Only a handful of my soldiers are living men. I assume you know by now the treatment that Fletcher underwent when he was one of our own? These men are much more advanced that that."

The group being held prisoner had remained completely silent during all of this, only glaring at the back of Desmond's head or at the ground.

"I tire of this standoff," Desmond commented.

No sooner had he made this comment than the CG ship he had come on rumbled into view from where it had been hovering. Now it was hovering overhead, much larger than Morgan's own ship was.

[Midnight_Huntress]

When the ship pulled up, Silver lost the illusion and dropped to her knees tired. She had a light sheen of sweat on her face for trying so much at once. She didn't reveal the Bubble shield. She had it disguised well. Any weaker though and it too would appear. She glared at Desmon as she panted for breath. "Don't flatter yourselves. I've gotten better than you think." She sneered. "Without any of your help."

¤no worries Gaz. That's what makes it fun.¤

[Darth Revan]

((Well, they've never come across SPARTANs. ))

Parker switched his rifle to his left shoulder, and switched his right hand on the trigger to his left. His rifle never lost its target. He then took his energy sword's hilt from his hip and activated the twin blades. He exclaimed, "And how will your cyborgs continue to function if they're sliced in two?"

Parker saw the vehicle's approach on his motion sensor long  before it came into view. He yelled out to Silver, "Silver now!"

(([spoiler=This is what the sword looks like activated:][/spoiler]))

[Midnight_Huntress]

She took one of her bracelets off her wrist that had a matching one on the other wrist and let the illusion fall. She turned it on as fast as she could in her tired state and the shield went up quickly. She was glad she hadn't used it before as it now served a useful purpose.

[Gaz]

"It's a pity I must leave you," Desmond said with a mock resigned sigh. "This would have been fun indeed. I have not had such fun in years. But there is one...toy that my ship has which our valiant captain does not."

Desmond smiled slyly as he crossed his arms calmly. "A transporter. Farewell."

No sooner had Desmond bid his adversaries farewell, then the whole group began to shimmer. Within seconds they were all gone. Except for Andromeda and Gaz, for some reason they were still there.

Gaz looked around in stunned surprise, but was able to somehow stand and stumble over to where Parker, Silver and Andromeda were.

Andromeda was not so silent. She looked at where Odysseus had been mere moments before and she was unable to contain herself. In a flood of emotion she cried out in emotional distress; falling to her knees.

Not long after that, a small group of CG soldiers ran out of the ship, realizing that they had been left behind.

Gaz glared at them and yelled, "Untie me!! NOW! I want to kill these bastards!"

(Don't worry, I'm not planning on another goose chase around the galaxy. lol. Not even planning to have the ship leave orbit.)

[Midnight_Huntress]

"No!" She cried as they disappeared. She slumped from her knees to the sides of her legs leaning on one hand. "You coward!" She called to the ship above. She reached over with a small dagger and cut Gaz loose at her request. Silver had tears sliding down her face as she reached over to hug her mother close.

[warren_bearclaw]

((I hope you don't mind me 'stealing' the CG soldiers coming off the ship, Sirrus... tell me if you do. And uh, by the way, what ship are they coming off of?))

The small group of soldiers clad in black-and-gray fatigues rushed out near to the spot where the others had been only moments before. The held their guns at a ready position, though they weren't too attentive to the beings around them. A soldier wearing solid white gauntlets was trying to fix the static coming from his comm-link. "They've cut the connection...", he spoke softly, "Well boys, we've been abandoned. And I'm not quite sure if this is a good thing or a really, really bad thing."

"Uh, Sergeant?" one of the others said.

"What is it, Carson?"

"We may have more pressing issues at the moment, sir." he replied, gesturing to the group of rather upset people around them.

[Gaz]

(No problem! That gives me less to worry about. lol. They are coming off of Morgan's (first name Odysseus) ship, one of the people that got abducted, he's the captain. The two of my characters remaining are a comrade of his, Gaz, and his wife Andromeda. The CG (or Central Government) has a secret project going on where they dabble in genetic experimentation for a reason as yet unknown. Morgan and Andromeda were victims of this. Morgan's a full blown minotaur and Andromeda slightly resembles Medusa now. Silver (Mythica's character) is their daughter. Asda, the four armed woman, was a doctor who helped Morgan escape when he had been a prisoner 10 years earlier. Fletcher used to work for the CG but went rogue and joined Morgan's crew. Desmond Morelock (the guy in charge of the CG group) was sent to retrieve what the CG sees as their property. But for some reason Andromeda and Silver were left behind.)
