Hey! Get back up here. No one said "go" yet.

About 25 feet above TRM's umbrella, a hole opens in the fabric of space-time. A scream is heard and a rather disheveled-looking person in a flight suit falls from the hole, landing solidly upon TRM with a grunt, then lies face-down, groaning to himself.

"Man, that real life is a bitch."

Safe: "Jack, seems to me, we're the only ones concerned about the "other" ship."

*Slips a pair of throwing knives into the top of his boot and throws a flak jacket on over his bandages, wincing a little in the process.*

Jack: "Can never be too safe when strangers come a knockin'" *Pumps the last round into his shotgun.* "You gonna be ok?"

Safe: "Good to go"

Soul steps into the room just in time to see Static fall from the sky.

"Static! Welcome back!"

Soul removes Tash's jar from under his arm and sets it next to the pool.

*Perched on a pillar above Molly witnesses Statics graceful entry*

Squawwwwwwwwk...squarakkk...Squawkkkedy (that's parrot for hysterical laughter)

It appears that Molly will no longer have to take her revenge on her almost killer.

*Notices the guys aren't moving much.
Flies down to the floor to see if TRM and Static are both in one piece*

*From the infirmary, Serenity hears a commotion and wanders outside just in time to see Static land on TRM. She runs over to see if everyone's okay.*

Hey Static! Good to have you back. Here. On the ship.

*Several people help TRM up. He seems to be okay, if a little disoriented.*

Soul, Tash, have you guys figured out what the big blip I saw was? Are we in any immediate and immenent danger? Or can I join the others in the pool?

Serenity, First Officer of Destiny

**Static stands and his body creaks and cracks loudly. His face is as it always was, but. . .different. The lines run deeper...the hurt that always burned in his eyes is now much more visible. The easy smile that constantly played across his lips has gone. Only the faintest hint of humor remains in his visage. His chesnut brown hair now has visible silver at the temples. There are two scars on his face...one across his right cheek, and another semi-circular scar that dominates his left. The one on the right is clearly from a cut, or more likely a bullet graze, and the left looks to have been the result of a burn.

His familiar Desert Eagle automatic pistols are gone. Instead, he wears two large, .45 caliber revolvers that appear very old. They are un-plated steel that bears an interesting shine, and sandalwood grips. They hang in belts that criss-cross Static's hips and are loaded with rounds.**

Static! I assure you that I keenly felt your absence!

* TheRealMe rubs the shoulder that Static landed on. *

As well as your return!
