Aurora watched them put the suits on warily. She was feeling distinctly pitied at this point, something she was not particularly fond of. She didn't want that. No matter how insane life was, she didn't want to be seen as the one who sat back, quivering and shaking in fear. She took a deep breath, steadying her nerves.

"What do you want me to do?" She asked, speaking louder than she had in awhile. "I want to help, if I can."

Myitt glanced at Aurora, considering.  "You sure you're feeling up to it?" She paused.  "Well.  Hang on."  She stepped into the storage room, her newly donned suit rustling, and retrieved another couple of small wands.  She handed one to Norpo and one to Aurora, tapping a couple of icons in mid air on the little holoscreen that popped up next to Aurora's. 

"This is an analysis wand, it can scan for a lot of things.  Biosignatures, mechanical failure, energy leaks.  I've set it to look for the same weak signal wavelength my own wand picked up.  This way we can all track its precise location," said Myitt.  The little translucent green screen displayed a small yellow squiggle, flashing faintly.  As Aurora moved around the ship, the squiggle changed position on the screen, getting closer as she moved toward one of the walls.

Myitt picked up the clear inflatable bag looking device and attatched it to her mouth, where it melted like a deflating balloon, disappearing around her teeth, melting into her nose.  She hooked the tubes into the neck of her suit.  The end result was a kind of clear retainer, supplying oxygen from tiny generators inside the lining of the suit and into the flat device.  "Ugh," her host muffled, sounding...well, like her nose was filled with plastic that streamed air into and out of her.  "I habe these things, they always make be gag."  She put on a sort of clear helmet designed for humans, not unlike Earth astronaut helmets, and stooped down to hand two more on the floor to Aurora and Norpo. 

"Habe fun," she grinned, turning to her wand and muttering for the computer to move the shielding so Corliss and the rest of the cabin wouldn't be sucked out by the pressure difference.  Thankfully the computer still understood her, and the hatch melted open, exposing the spooky red gloom of the inside of the asteroid.

((Oh, okay! That means I have to put the suit thing on too, right?))

Aurora looked at the mask in confusion, but did her best to mimic Myitt. As it melded to her respiratory system she couldn't help gagging a little, but quickly regained her composure.

"Right." Aurora said, trying not to sound nauseous. "I'm ready."

<You got it?> Tia asked as she lifted up the breathing apparatis.
<I've got it as best I can. Hopefully you won't gag badly enough to throw up.>
<That's comforting.> She slipped it on a bit awkwardly, trying not to lose the last thing she had eaten when it melded to her. She had a really bad gag reflex, and it was only due to Norpo controling her reflexes that kept her from actually throwing up. "Ready over here, too."

Corliss waved a little with his good arm, wincing.  "See ya later alligator," he murmured with a small smile. 

Myitt smirked.  "Right, guard the fort," she said, hopping out through the hatch and the invisible shielding, into the cold, empty tunnel.  Her boots crunched on the gravel, but there was no sound but the hissing from the interior of her suit.  She clicked a button on her gloved wrist and spoke to the other two. 

"If you need to communicate, press the black panel on your left wrist," she said, her voice distorted over the comm link system.  "Be careful, we don't know what else could be out here."

Out into this silent world, Myitt began to search the exterior of the ship.  The asteroid was so large that it provided a measure of gravity, though if any of the little band were to jump, they'd take a bit longer than normal to land again.  Slowly she scanned various spots on the red-gleaming black hull, eyeing the diagram hovering in front of her.

"You too," Norpo replied, gingerly pressing the button. "I don't want to lose the only pilot we have, unless Corliss knows how to fly the ship with a one-handed host."

"*tchhk* He could do it, but it wouldn't be pretty.  A drunken Gedd could fly better," Myitt smirked, gently running a hand along the hull.  "I don't see anything yet, but the sensors are showing it should be near the hatch.  I hope we don't have to pry open the paneling...our oxygen supplies won't last forever."  She knelt down under the ship, aiming her gloved hand up at the underbelly.  A red light shone from the small display next to the comm link button, illuminating the darker parts of the ship outside of the range of the red landing lights.

Norpo moved closer to Myitt and squinted. He pushed Tia's glasses up her nose absently. "See anything?"

((Does Tia have a helmet on? x3  I do the same thing with my glasses all the damn time, sometimes I accidentally hit my face when I'm wearing contacts, haha.))

"It's under here," Myitt said warily over the comm link system.  "Beneath the floorboards..." She slid the wand into the suit's belt and began unfastening a large black bolt on the underside of the ship, which hung hot and glowing in this cold, silent tunnel, just a foot or so above their heads.  "Come on...you...dapsen..."  At last she pried loose the little flat black panel, white wires oozing from the spot it had attached itself to the ship.  These melted into the panel and the thing sizzled, white sparks flying from it.  Myitt cursed and dropped the tracking device from her gloved hand, and it crackled noiselessly on the gravel, all light dimming from it.  She crushed it with a boot for good measure.  "Damnit.  The bastard who put this here had to have known where this ship was, and that we were going to be at that meeting.  We'll have to move quickly, they might still be able to trail us while this thing is hot."  She maneuvered from beneath the ship and stood up.

((Um...maybe? Pssha. You expect me to pay attention to minor details like helmets that would prevent Tia from pushing up her glasses? You're crazy. And I know what you mean. I tried contacts and kept doing that. Now I just steadily shove my glasses further and further into my face sometimes.))

"After you, then," Tia replied calmly. "Aurora, we're moving out. You coming?"

((finally, you took it off. now I can finally add something))

Suddenly the tracking device blinked out. Estril, checked all the systems just in case.
<<Maybe they found it>> Tyronne suggested. <<I told you we should've used a more advanced one.>>
<<Relax. there's no way they could've found it. I hid it way too well.>> Estril said. <<Look it's back.>>
Sure enough, the tracking device was active again.
<<They probably just found the decoy tracking device. Must've just been a glitch in the computer.>>

"Yeah, I'm coming." Aurora said, looking around in relative awe, "Wow....space...You don't think anything would be here, do you?" Aurora asked in response to Myitts caution, "I mean...its just a hunk of rock and ice."

"Yes, but a few hours ago you probably thought you humans were alone in the galaxy. Or at least on your planet," Norpo replied good-naturedly. "Though I honestly can't think of any aliens that live on asteroids."
Something in the back of Tia's mind was bothering her, but Norpo couldn't read what it was immedietly. <Something wrong?> Norpo asked.
<Huh? Oh, no. It's nothing. Just...a feeling. Like this is just the beginning. Probably just paraniod.>
<Probably,> Norpo replied, trying to hide his sudden discomfort. He was equally as paranoid as his host, which didn't help matters at the moment. <Everything's going to be just fine,> he said, though he wasn't quite sure which one of them he was trying to reassure.
