Beam me up Scottie

Well, if you want to and Phoenix wants to, I'm game. I had A-LX introduced earlier and can tweak a reason for him to be where you are as the planet was introduced as a den of thieves... ignore the plot holes though. Not sure what else to do as I'm not sure who all wants to give this a go.

A-LX stumbled forward with a smile.

"Mom?" he queried for the hundredth time as he tapped the watch on his wrist. "Power low. Failure of LOST system." He remembered going to the port and having Mr. Rituzi ask for help in loading the ship. His program told him to be helpful so he agreed and contacted his parents. His MPU told him to do whatever Mr. Rituzi asked, so he did, even as the ship took off and activated his security system that engaged if he traveled outside his home planet's atmosphere. After a short argument, the crew of the ship decided to disarm the alarm by... well his memory was a little hazy at that point.

He'd woken up and realized he was injured and had been attacked. The protical was to escape whoever had attacked him if he was unable to fight them, so A-LX ran, and ran, and ran... and now he was low on power and while he had been told there was no way he could feel fear, he could not deny a sense of discomfort that was not fully caused by the injuries the thieves had caused.

He headed towards all the noise, but now everything was quiet and he doubted his parents would come rescue him and not activate a locator to alert him of their presence.

"Hello!" He shouted, frightening a few birds as his maximum volume was set to be loud enough that he could be heard from fairly far away. The stupid part was that he had no idea if he had alerted only helpful people and not the people who had brought him to the planet or anything deadly already living and killing on the planet. His programming was not giving him any answers so he was out of ideas at the moment and hindsight is 20/20

Ok this all taking place on the same planet? and are we still gona deal with the big bugs attacking the base?

[FangedSmile]

Yeah, I just wasn't aware of what that plot string was and if they guy being attacked would ever return to RP their character or not. Plus everyone seemed to have gone in different directions after meeting up.

[lonemanslayer]

ok well I was heading off to go help the guy being attacked by bugs and I thought crystal was too. but I do not think that the guy playing that char is gona be back any time soon.

So any ideas as to how to move this along?

[B. B. Wolf]

... We can just say A-LX is the one sending the communication... and pretend that the other character made it out ok... meybe?

[FangedSmile]

hehehehehe, and so like many of our plans a brief sidenote was observed and we decided the screaming masses could save THEMSELVES for a change, thus we move on. ^_~

[B. B. Wolf]

BWAHA! Victory is assured... *throws bumper at bug aliens* So who's next?

[FangedSmile]

Whoever wants to go next can go next.

((post I shall then.))

Lyndis followed along despite Arianna's skeptical look at his combat training. It was understandable. Most kids didn't know what a combat zone looked like, let alone how to survive in one. Hopefully his quick hacking of the security door at the base upon arrival helped change her mind about his incompetence, and even more hopefully that mind change made him appear more useful and less like an inscrutable character. He wondered how much anyone would focus on his strange talents though after the rather eerie approach to the base. Jeeps and cruisers were scattered about, doors and cargo bays open, in some cases the engines still purring. There were bullet divets in the ground and some vehicles, even evidence of mortar fire, but despite the obvious shows of force, despite the foot prints in the mud and still warming carrier engines, there wasn't a single body in sight. Hell even a few blood stains would have been comforting. Lyndis could understand slaughter, this ghost town setting though was setting his senses on rapid fire alert enough to make his brain sizzle.

With the crossing of the last pairs of wires and the resulting spark, gears began to grind and blast doors that had been sealed shut began to slowly pull open. Whatever had happened to the base, the inside wasn't much more revealing of events than the out. The vague outline of a crude barricade could be seen further down, but the lights only extended a few hundred feet down the hall. Everything past that was shrouded in darkness. Lyndis glanced down the hallway and pulled out a combat knife strapped to the inside of his vest, the metal dulled to a near black sheen so that it didn't reflect light. Now properly armed in case any nasties jumped out at him he glanced back at the commander, eyeing her expectantly. "Orders ma'am?"

((i just now realized that you said the masses could handle themselves and i'm sorry. if this post in unacceptable to said masses i will edit it as needed. sorry >.<))

(I am SO sorry this took so long...>.< hopefully ill be able to get on more now i will try dads been bitten by the facebook app bug and has been literately living on the net)

Ariana kept her crew in a tight group as they entered the base. She could see the destruction and signs of warfare but no bodies, which was confusing but that wasnt her worry at the moment. Her only concern was to see if anyone survived and what they could do to help as they reached the doors she was turning to Harfe to have him hack the system when Lyndis rushed forward and did the job for her. Impressed Ariana looked at the boy in a different light as the doors creaked open with an unnessacary amount of racket. Ariana turned to Garhen who was looking at her for instruction some anger still reflecting in his eyes, luckily Garhen wasnt one to place his anger above his job. Sighing she nodded and Garhen and her crew began to move toward the dark opening of the base...taking readings and readying weapons and uv lighting. Ariana truned toward the boy as he asked for orders, She smiled and wondered what else this 'child' could do...

"Go help Garhen scope out the interior, well be setting up a com center here which Harfe will run and keep us all connected, He'll be handing out com links soon so see him shortly too."

Garhen merely glanced at the kid before going back to his duty sulking, Harfe looked back at Lyndis and grinned sheepishly

"I'm more of a lover than a fighter what can i say"

He said shrugging before going back to work. Garq grinned and started helping him set up

"Yeah a lover riiiight"

Ariana shook her head at the two before looking over at Seglin who was busy getting weapons ready and then turned back to Lyndis,

"Other than that as soon as we are set up were goin in so just get ready son"

B.B. jumped around the ship, getting it ready for take off as soon as Phay thought they'd be ready. His own mind was in a whirlwind of thought as he tried to figure out why he knew what he did about Captain Ariana, but not much else. Usually he felt a whole flood of information streaming through his brain when he remembered something, not just a few names and an event that barely seemed related. He growled in frustration and accidentally bent a pipe with his ruined hand. He glared at the offending appendage before fixing the pipe as best he could. He'd have to get that fixed soon, he couldn't go around with only half control of his hand. He used his other hand to swing himself up and grab onto another low hanging pipe, then swinging himself out to land on the second landing.

"Ships ready for take-off, Phay, lets go save your innocent," he said with a hint of his old smirk back in place. In the back of his mind though, he couldn't help but think that this wasn't going to turn out well for himself, one way or the other.
