GESB: Operation Time-Cops

[Alic]

(i am going to assume Alic can hear you too.)


<<How did he get back there? Myitt, fry that guy. I'm tired of running.>> Alic felt her time was close in morph and decided it was time to demorph. She would also be able to return to the mirage faster. She removed the shorts and tank top and slipped off her sandals so she could save it for another needed time. Just a couple minutes later she had demorphed and was running back with the shredder in one hand and the clothing in another.

[Myitt]

<Claxter brought him back here,> Myitt says into the comm system.  At least he's good for something, she thinks to herself.

[Alic]

<I see.> Alic had to avoid a couple of humans at one point and had to take a small detour. <<Are you okay?>> She was asking Myitt/Tara privately. She was going to really give it to Claxter when they were back on the Mirage. Maybe she would just like to leave him[/i helpless somewhere.

[Myitt]

Privately Myitt replied, <<Tara's side is going to sting for a while, but I'm not injured, myself.>>  She sighs.  <<Only my pride...>>

[Alic]

<<She decided her life was more important that mine and took a hit for me.. of course.. You already knew this.>> Alic left it as that because she had now entered the clearing with the bug fighter where apparently Zorish was hanging around as well.
<Alright, scum. Seriously? You're not going to be getting away.> Alic set her clothing on the ground.

[Myitt]

Tara smiles inwardly.  <See?> she says to Myitt.  <I knew she'd appreciate it, at least.>

<Yes, I'm glad you helped her...just don't go doing stupid things like that again, either of you,> Myitt berates worriedly.

[Terenia]

As the conversation and capture of Sukohn unfolded Zorish slunk backwards, melting into the shadows of the trees that surrounded the clearing. He moved steadily in the direction that Sukohn had pointed out, knowing that his survival depended on reaching civilization before anyone found him. As it was, everyone seemed distracted for the moment, but that would not last long.

As soon as Zorish feels that he is far enough from the clearing to no longer be heard he turns and begins to jog away, hoping that no one has spotted him.

[Myitt]

Myitt watches the holoscreens intently.  <Wait a second, guys,> she says into the link converter, <I see a heat signature moving away from you, mmmm, due East, it looks like.  Aw, goddamnit, she's off the screens!  Hang on, I'll try and broaden the scans...no promises...this is like dyslexic Greek over here...>

She taps at the screens, increasingly frustrated by the unfamiliarity of the Andalite codes.

[Chad32]

"Why are you so concerned with the Sub Visser anyway?" Sukohn asked loudly from the other room. "I thought you guys were after me, but I guess you took a side trip."

<Don't we have more important things to worry about?>

<Nah. You'll live and they're likely going to kill me.>

(By the way, I will allow you to kill Sukohn and Cody if you want. Doesn't matter. Just don't kill the other guy, because he's meant to be a woobie, and you'd be douches for killing him.)

[Myitt]

Myitt hears Sukohn speaking in the other room, the sound muffled, and she chooses to ignore him.  <Hello?> she calls outside.  <Is that her or just one of you guys?  Help me out here!>

[Alic]

Alic knew it wasn't any of them and charged into a run behind the ship. <Wasn't us, Myitt. I'm on it.> I'm also faster, she thought. She knew that as much as she had just come to dislike this yeerk, that they were to be taken alive. As she was running at full speed and dodging trees, she also adjusted the shredder to a lower level. It kind of disappointed her. She thought she saw a flash of something just ahead.

[Chad32]

<I am coming with you, Aliciania!> Claxter called and started running that way. It was his mistake, and he should be trying to get Zorish back.

Sukohn waited a bit, but apparently Myitt was ignoring him.

[Terenia]

"****," Zorish mutters, hearing the crash of underbrush from somewhere behind him. He picks up speed, moving from a jog to an all-out run, but he knows that he cannot outrun an Andalite. If he does not emerge into town soon he will be captured for sure.

"Filthy Andalites," Zorish grunts, pumping his arms as he runs.

----

On the Blade Ship, three Bug Fighters exit the docking bay and begin a course towards the North American continent on Earth.

[Alic]

Alic heard him just ahead, and knew she could have him in a minute. Her legs were starting to tire but she pushed on. Hoping to slow him or stun him she shot in Zorish's general direction. Her aim was never great but maybe she'd get lucky and a tree would fall on him ending the problem for good. Alic smiled at the thought and fired again.

[Chad32]

Claxter continued towards the sounds, but didn't have a visual yet. He continued running, and tried to come around to flank Zorish from the side.
