End of the world
*Riddick slowly let's me go as I peer over at you, shame in my eyes. I quickly look away and nod. Riddick glances at you with one eyebrow raised, squeezing my hand gently. Tor looks at Mike then walks over to the bed and jumps up on it, lying down at the foot of it.* I'm sorry, Mike...for letting things get so out of control with me..
It's over. Don't hold on to it. We're not upset, we're in your corner. Now...go eat. You need to keep your strength up.
*Tor begins to laugh when you mention eating and I look over* Oh hush or I'm leaving you here! *he makes what sounds like a low burp then begins to laugh again making my eyes open wide with embarrassment. Riddick looks confused then realizes and begins to laugh saying he couldn't believe that burp had come from me a few days ago. I smack his shoulder and burry my head in my pillow*
* Mike looks innocent and about 12 years old*I have no idea what your talking about....
* he sets a cup of Dr. Pepper on the table by the bed and steps out. His voice comes through the door.*
Coma and eat...your metabolism burns fast.
*I grab the Dr. Pepper and step out of room, punching Riddick and you in the shoulder before I walk towards the mess hall for food. I enter and sit down, suddenly a little tired, and begin to scootch the can between my hands absentmindedly *
* Mike and Riddick follow her in. Riddick gets a plate and joins Lacy...Mike feeds all the animals.Then Mike gets his steak, a Coke and joins them. *So, anyone interested in what I found out from Blofeld's cat?
*I take a sip from the can and look up* Sure...what did you find out? * I grab a plate heaping with French frys, onion rings, and a couple of pieces of mushroom and pepperoni pizza*
I'd say about every major criminal, dictator, mass murderer and in general any evil person, creature or machine from a dozen universes is...or is that "are"??? * Moke stops a second and looks pensive * Yes, are. Are arrayed against us.* Mike takes a bite of his steak, chews, and swallows *
Oh, and he hates being held all the time.
*I groan and bite into an onion ring* Great...so we're wanted by the bad guys to kill us and only have what? Us as the good days to help us stay alive and out of their greedy little hands?
My suggestion is that we jump to a location where we can inform someone...a group we can trust about this. Then we head back to the giant space station I happen to know the location of.
*cocks my head to the side* Well there is another unnamed planet that Scott doesn't know about if you want to go there. *slides a piece of paper over to you with coordinates written on it* The doctor gave it to me and said to come here if we ever needed help.
....I'd rather not trust anything Scott had anything to do with. But what I was saying was that their council is on a space station located in a binary system not too far from one version of our Earth.It's a version with super heroes. It's about 2214 there and they have space travel. We could send the information we have to them in case we....meet unfortunate ends. After we pass the information on then we could assault the space station.
By the way. According to the star charts in the computer this planet is also in that system...the one with the space station. I'd imagine "they" are using the planet to. Not sure for what. We could check out the planet fist if you want.
No this one isn't from Scott. This one is from the Doctor and he pilot we met...and I looked it up. It's no where near the station so we would be safe.
Well...if you think so. We should at least send out automated courier ships so if something does happen to us this information isn't lost.
*I held up a small device* The Doctor gave me this..it's been recoding everything visually and auditory ever since we left the Leviathan. Even in my pocket it can see and hear everything. We can send this to him.
Okay...but since we're not making the drop I'm going to send off several just to be safe. You can send that and I'll send standard digital information. Surely at least one will get through.Do you know where the Doctor is?
*cocks my head to the side* He said something about hanging with some furry tree bears...but I think he meant the Ewoks. *throws a fry at Riddick who was making weird facials at me to get me to laugh* Dork!
I'm not sure but I'd almost bet that's the first time you've been called a...dork.
*Riddick growls a little at me but not too threatening* Oh trust me Riddick if you look up the true meaning of Dork...you'd probably go after me right now. * I laugh and slap at him as he reaches for me* no..nooo....Mike make him stop!
Me...I'm not part of this Tor, Knight, the rest of our 4 legged friends and me are enjoying our steaks. You two are the children here.
*I gasp at Mike and without warning launch myself at Mike, squealing as I take him down and laugh. I sit up on top of you then launch myself off just as Riddick goes to grab me. He laughs and chases me out of the mess hall. Tor lets out an excited roar and jumps up, skittering out after us*
* Mike sits on the floor and calls after them. *I TOLD YOU YOU WERE THE CHILDREN!
*Tor bounds back into the room and licks your face again and again before he bolts out of the room back after me and Riddick*
Thanks...I had Coke there.* Mike calls for robotic clean up...and gets another Coke. *
*I squeal again down the hallway then all you can hear is my laughing and me begging for Riddick to stop. Then I call your name in between breaths asking for help and that I can't breath but Riddick only laugh and continues to tickle me*
* Suddenly all the animals race around the corner and bowl into both of you...Mike manages to ask Tor to join in and the two of you are inundated with licking animals. Mike looks up the corridor sipping his Coke...and shakes his head. *Kids...over grown kids.
*I squeal again, trying to push Tor and the animals off of me* Mike! I can't believe you told them to do this.
* Mike still sipping his Coke*You can't...now what did I ever do that would lead you i wouldn't...keep licking, keep licking...Tor, Lacy's feeling left out.
*I roll and jump to my feet before he could lick me again and launch myself straight for you, wings pushing me faster. I catch your shoulders and we both go to the ground. I laugh as I lay on the floor next to you and look over at you.*
* Mike sits up...wiping away more spilled Coke and looks over at you*I still think you're a kid, but at least you're laughing.
* Tor lands on you *
*I let out grunt and a yelp as Tor lands on my* OMG Tor you way a ton...get off of me. *Tor just firms down at me, licking my face* Okay okay I get it I get it! *Tor gets off and snickers as he walks away. I slowly sit up and wipe off the Coke that had fallen on me* Okay...now I'm tired. Too much laughing.
And too little food....* Mike grins *You know, I never saw a tiger snicker before...
You'll be surprised by Tor then because he acts human at times. It's funny. *I sit back down and begin to eat again. Riddick and he animals come back into the room and also begin to eat. I look at Mike and hand him another device* This one shows the planet more up close. It's beautiful, Mike...almost like paradise. The Doctor found a really nice place.
* Mike looks at the pictures and finally hands the device back* Well I may be starting to sound like the skeptic of the group but I'll wait till we get there. A coral snake is beautiful but if it bites you your dead. We know something's going on and we're caught in it.
I guess we can hope this planet has nothing to do with it.
* Mike gets a salad to replace his food...which somehow ended up on the floor...gets his third Coke and joins Lacy and Riddick*
*I give Riddick an onion ring, chewing in my own thoughtfully.* You don't think the Doctor is involved do you? He seems like a nice guy.
Hey there fellow spaced Rangers I,m back >again<.sorry I had to bug out on ya'll. Ya see I felt a little med problem coming on on hit the emerg. recall button I keep stashed..*stop to take in my surroundings. Whoa Mike and Lacey have chanced just a bit Lacey looking good um ya..and where did all these cats come from? Feel like I'm home again. theres Monkey,einstein Darwin,Laneaus, Pixel...*..under my beard and the next thing I know Bones is trying to stuff me into stasis. I plead with him not to but..So next thing I know I'm back here...SSSSOOOOOOOOO what's up?
Yo...Arthur...we thought you were around here on the ship somewhere. So, this is McCoy we're talking about...southern guy, calls himself a simple country doctor?Well, at least you're okay. Seems like every time I see the guy he's saying, "he's dead Jim".
Lacy, well I'm not saying he's involved as part of things on the wrong side, but you know the Doctor. He tends to, stumble into things that are a bit more than they seem.
*smiles as I look up at Arthur* Arthur! We were wondering where you have been. * Stands up and moves over to Arthur, hugging him*
Mike did you say the DR is here?? The real one with the funky scarf? Oh crap I bet he's here to get his LSTT back that I sort of borrowed him..*hugs Lacey back*
*I smile and lean back breaking the hug* Arthur, this is Tor, my spirit, dream, and now wake guide and protecting white tiger. He and I can talk through our minds and somehow with each other we can control the elements and I am stronger when he and I are connected mind to mind. It's really neat but can be scary too...I...we...we just killed a bunch of people back on the other planet we were just on...*looks down a little*
No, no....Lacy has the coordinates of a planet she got from the Dr. It looks like a nice place, but considering what's going on I'm just going with my glass is half empty mind set and saying it might look too nice...
Somehow Lacy spoke before I did...must be the telepathy thing...
Hey Tor what's up? Ya I kind of hate it when my glass gets half full, means I have to get up to go to the bar and refill it..so were off on a to a planet the Dr suggested.. What are you nuts..
Probably. Actually we're in the middle of a hyperspace jump (so I'm astounded you appeared back here). Once we complete that...then we jump for the Dr.'s planet.
*I sit back down and pat the seat next to me* Arthur you must be hungry. Why not join us for lunch..or is it dinner? I can't tell anymore*
Had any luck finding them big fish? Leviathons I think you called them..
...sort of. Let me explain...no too much, let me sum-up.See there's this huge conspiracy of evil maniacs, Evil Overlords and so on on a giant space station planing on using mutated Leviathans in their plan.
Don't forget to tell him how they want us dead now...
So let me get this straight. Currently off to see the Wizard on some planet the Dr told you about..some evil maniacs are trying to take over the Empire using big fish..AND they want to kill us??What the hell I'm in...

Hi, how you doing... I think it might be good for you to just rest a while. We're going to be in Jump Space for several days why not just give yourself time to heal? Read, rest watch some videos, listen to some music, spend time with Riddidck * Mike smiles*. We can go over things later. Why not think of the next few days as time off?
