Capitan Dokka Tkarro's heart took a leap as he recognized Jin from the surface. He choked out, "My GOD! You--You're gorgeous! You're cured of the Blight! How? How did this happen?" He clasped her smooth, creamy complexioned hand and stared in sad appreciation. She shrugged and replied, "Part of it has to do with this alien bracelet I got from from Toxic's father, Aldus Panchetta. It healed some of the ravages of the Blight, regrew my hair and planted a new cyber-eye in my head. Well enough pleastries..I have to talk to you..." He said quickly, "I have terrible news. Toxic died. It was an accident with one of the Plasma Security Curtains..." Narchi whirled from looking out the window and exclaimed, "Holy Shit! Well, you are NOT crazy then, Jin." Jin nodded with a curious lack of grief, and remarked, "Yah,yah--I already know all that! She done told me when we got here! She's running her mouth off, floating all ghostly outside the window right now. "She told me some folks died with her, some woman took her 'KEY' and is swapping it off with some other 'mean lady'. Lessee--Oh, yeah...some alien critters are looking for it because somebody done burnt some 'nice feller' up with it and we have til sundown to get it back OR she and the folks what died with her are STAYING dead with her! THAT IS TWENTY-SIX MINUTES FROM NOW!" Chiboo exclaimed, "HOLY SHIT! Alien 'critters'?" Narchi looked wryly at her and asked, "What are you dressed up for, Deva Lady?" She glared at Narchi, and snapped, "I am General Chiboo, Department of City Survival. Dokka is under my command, Prince Narchi? I understand you aided Dokka earilier this morning at the first crash-site?" Narchi nodded, then snapped his fingers, remarking,"Jin--you forgot the cyclops!" Jin frowned and sighed, "That girl don't have no good sense! Toxic also said that the Cyclops that saved Martya's green ass from smacking into the ground will be needed big-time in the next few minutes." Dokka frowned at Jin, asking,"What in HELL are you talking about? Cyclops? WHAT cyclops?" Jin said, "Thistledown is who he calls himself. Pretty funny feller. For a robot. Told about some Alien guys what looked like big upright lizards poking around Ahrini's crash-site earlier." He looked blankly at her for the rest of the story. It would be hours, if ever, for him to hear it. Off in the distance, through the open door from the lounge, heavy-weapons fire rattled distantly. An alert sounded over the speakers, "WARNING! THE CITY IS NOW ON 'LOCK-DOWN'! A NON-HUMAN HAS ATTACKED HUMANS IN HANGAR 17-A, AND IS ON THE RUN! Please remain where you are!" Dokka looked out the window and exclaimed, "That's TWO sectors away! You can see the smoke! COME ON! Narchi drew his weapon, as Jin's form flickered darkly into full-armor. Dokka and Boo gaped at Jin. She hefted her huge rifle that had appeared out of thin air and ran off, calling behind her,"I don't have time to fool around!" The reat of them chased after her. --TO BE CONTINUED!!-- Media is Poser7,PSP7,Wings3d,Blacksmith2.2
