Kage turned back from his console at Gersarus' question, "Well...ummm...you sit there while we pilot the ship down...I'll think of something...."

<If you want me out of the way, then I can be. Of course, not that I'll do it freely,> he smiled with a strange smile.

I stared at Gersarus for a second. Then I just piloted the ship down warily. I realized he was an Iskoort war-maker...

We landed in the lot reserved for ships. Mine was comfortably fitted into a hangar.

I punched the intracomm, "Parag, we have to get these Yeerks out and into the interrogation room."

<Pardon me, but I won't be helping you there,> Gersarus informed them. He ****ed his head. <I may choose to go along when you interrogate them.>

Kage thought about that. Iskoort don't have any special abilities...war-makers simply like to punch people...

"I'll have to clear that with Gremeth, but thanks for the offer." he said warily. He opened the hatch and the bunch piled out.

Gremeth approached them, with a heavily armed Human following him, <Ambassador Kage, this is Xero. He is a soldier in the Union military.>

<<Back when they were hardened, paranoid, killing-machines,>> he told me privately, <<be careful around him.>>

"Xero?", I wondered out loud, "I think I've heard of you. You have a wonderful record. You've been through 10 near-death situations haven't you?"

"I've been in lots of tough situations before.  So, you seem to know me.  Can I get an introduction?"  You can tell by the way he carries himself that he is an important man.  He also is a paranoid one, which you could probably infer from the various weapons on his person.

"Forgive me, my name is Kage Hamee. I'm a member of the Ambassadorial Senate here in the Union HQ. This is Claxter-Karmesh-Sinopul my personal security. And Parag Yhua, another Ambassadorial Bodyguard."

Oh yea...

"And this is Gersarus...our, uh, hitchhiker."

"Nice to meet all of you.  I'm sure we'll accomplish alot together and individually.  I haven't been briefed yet, so can someone catch me up to what's going on?". He is clearly a powerful man, yet nothing he does seems threatening despite being armed to the teeth.  One wonders how he pulls that off.

Gersarus stared at the older man. <Hitchhiker?> he said, as though it was Xero that had called him that. <I'm sorry, but it may be almost as though you people kidnapped me! Hitchhiker, of all things...> he muttered.

I rolled my eyes, "You were unconscious. Would you rather have died?"

I turned back to Xero a gestured to ignore him, "I'm sure we will do a lot of good as well. Here is what has been going on so far:

"Claxter, Parag and myself were waiting for the ambassadorial senate to adjourn, when we heard news that the StarSavior, an andalite Dome-Ship, had gone down in the Gressen rift. We went to investigate, and found it crashed on a planet we just recently name Mareneoi. We found that the captain and three of her friends were infested by Yeerks.We have them in our hold now. We were about to leave when we found the unconscious Acoun Kloa, so we picked him up. And then we found Gersarus as well."

"Sounds to me like they've been hiding there for a while. Thought all or most of rhode Yeerks were dead. This might be the paranoia talking, but what if they're gonna come back with their full forces soon? We need the  Yeerks we do have captive to be interrogated.  They could be escaping as we speak.  Crafty bastards.  They're on a timer too.  Pretty short timer, since I assume we don't have any of those Yeerk pools, or whatever they're called.  Military action may be required soon.  Please tell me they had the sense to at least blockade the planet?". He seems concerned about this, and a bit paranoid.  But he's always paranoid.

Kage shook his head, "There are no real forces around the Moon. There was a small formation of Andalite fighters surrounding and orbiting an Andalite Dome-Ship, two Iskoort ships, and three Terran...er...human assault cruisers. I'm sure they've been informed however, and I can't imagine the Dome-Ship, fighters, and Cruisers not making a blockade. It is a very small planet...however, knowing the Iskoort," I looked at Gersarus, and lowered my voice, "They probably just went down to the surface to look for stuf to sell, and/or beat up."

Inside the new Hork-Bajir ship, soon-to-be Visser 4 cried. Not the usual crying, that consists of tears falling down out of the eyes and down the cheeks. Inside, Geriss was crying. Oh, and he was crying out –– quite loudly.

<NOOO! GET BACK HERE! Release me you vile simpletons!>

He turned Aldrea's female andalite body to the only other andalite there, <Yntill...I came so close! The second Yeerks to capture an Andalite body. You, the third. We were going to go back, and get promoted! I was going to be Visser 4! VISSER 4 YNTILL!!! You maybe even Visser 5, but probably being just Subvisser 1 or something...you know how it is, first and second are valuable titles. Third is just repetitive...but still! We were so close! And then a bunch of misfits walks in and takes down our squadron!>

The Iskoort looked from one to another. He was certain he had missed out on something. Miffed, he said, <Fine. Talk behind my backs. It's not like the Hork-Bajirs aren't clumsy....>

I stopped.

In a little over an instant –– I mentally chastised myself for my slow reflexes –– my blades were at his throat.

"Crap. How much authority do we have here?  If I can I'm going to order them off the planet and send in a real blockade if possible.  Carpet bomb the surface from orbit if we can.  There's no way I'm letting even the slightest possibility of a relapse exist.  If they came back...  This place would go straight to hell.  We don't even know if there were others... Damn, just what I needed.  More war.  Least I'm somewhat good at it.". He seems a bit stressed, more stressed than he was a few minutes ago. His military training was beginning to kick back in.  "So, what else is there?"
