Temporal Terror

[Cobra (Gymn)]

Parag hurried to put on his Evo-suit and rushed out to Acoun. Is he alright?

[RAFrukh]

I lifted my S.E.N.S.O.R. to Acoun.

"His evo-suit malfunctioned. He's getting close to a hypothermic collapse. We just need to get him to the medication bays. I have two Chee there. They will take care of him."

I lifted him up, onto my shoulders. I brought him into the ship. Then, I sat at the Captain's chair.

"Preparing to lift off..."

The Tactical console beeped, alerting the crew to a new life-form, "Claxter, will you see what that is about?"

[Cobra (Gymn)]

Parag stayed with the Ambassador until the Chee ordered him to leave the medbay. I'm sorry I failed you, Uncle. Parag told Acoun privately whether he heard or not.

[Chad32]

<Let's see. There's something coming out, though I'm not sure where it came from.> Claxter said. he zoomed the view in. <There's some sort of portal out there. It wasn't destroyed by the blast. There seem to be more blue bands coming out. This is quite puzzling. Where are these Hork-Bajir controllers coming from?>

[RAFrukh]

I checked his console...

"That's not all...there seems to be an Iskoort...what the tura, bring us over and bring them in."

[Cobra (Gymn)]

Iskoort? Did the Yeerks know the Iskoort. Don't tell me. I know that you say they didn't. Parag smiled a froggy smile.

[Chad32]

Claxter brought the ship around, and picked up the Iskoort. he was alive, but how he got here was a mystery.

[Cobra (Gymn)]

His mind appears to be blank right now. He is in a very deep sleep.

[RAFrukh]

"Vunyr," I said, calling the Android from sickbay, "Could you get up here with some vivialine, please."

"Aye, Ambassador.", said the Chee.

After a few seconds, he was up on the bridge and put a hypojet to the Iskoort's neck, injecting the vivialine into his blood stream in hopes of reviving him.

Blackness. Utter blackness. That was the first thing that Gersarus remembered, as he slowly heard noises coming from far off. Then there was a dull sense of pain...and then light. And a slight smell. Gersarus opened his eyes and felt sick to his stomach. Where was he?

[RAFrukh]

"The Iskoort is coming to, Ambassador.", Vunyr said.

"Thank you doctor. Your services will be needed in sickbay now."

"Acknowledged.", he walked back to sickbay.

"Can you hear me? I am Ambassador Kage Hamee of the Hork-Bajir vessel Prodigy. Who are you?"

An Iskoort? On an airless planet? In the Gressen Rift? During a Yeerk invasion?

I looked up to Claxter, "He must've come through the Portal."

I turned back to the Iskoort, "Can you hear me?"

[Josh (J)]

Gersarus could make out the figures of the different aliens. He blinked, then snapped, ''Of course I can hear you. I'm not deaf.'' He struggled into a sitting position. ''Now where on space am I?''

[RAFrukh]

Kage looked at his bridge crew and back to the impertinent Iskoort, "You're on the planetoid NR–156927–1. Or hovering above it rather. Who are you?"

((Iskoort use thought-speak, remember? ))

[Josh (J)]

Gersarus stood up and scanned the area around. A Leeran, Hork-Bajir, and Andalite...hmm. <Who I am is none of your concern. But...my name is Gersarrus. That's all I'll tell you.> He looked around, confused.

[RAFrukh]

This Iskoort was worse than an Andalite...

Present company excluded..., I thought to myself in case Parag was still probing me.

"Ok...well. I'll take us out of here. Claxter, you get the Yeerks on a antigrav bed and carry them to sickbay. Get the Chee to find a way to remove the Yeerks. Parag, you monitor...Gersarus."

I punched a few keys, and the ship left the area, translating to z-space.
