(Shiny shouts back to oreo)

Shiny-I can't get anyone to com me back from the ship.

(Oreo shouts back up to shiny)

Oreo- Gorramit girl! forget the ship for now. Com path and find make sure he and the twins are ok.

(Shiny coms Path)

****Coms path****

Path? Are you there?

****Ends com****

(seconds later path's voice comes through the speaker on shiny's com)

****Com****

Yes, i'm still here. Where are you guys? did you get the captain?

****Ends com****

****Shiny coms****

Yes, we have the captain and we're making our way back towards you right now! Should be there within minutes so get the twins ready.

****endss com****

(Shiny and oreo increase their speed, darting in all directions still they finally meet- up with path who is waiting with the twins)

(Out of breathe shiny notices the twins sitting on the floor quietly and then looks over to path)

Shiny- they're alright.

Path- far from it. Just like Oreo i'm sure, they're awake and able to move about, but they are still far from alright.

(Oreo removes the captain and props him up against a wall.)

Oreo- You got anything that help him out. Think we may need him willing and able to run on his own two feet. Figure shiny and i might have stirred up quite the ruckus running through them hallways. Pretty it'll only be a matter of time still the halls are flooded with security.

(Shiny kneels by the twins and begins to pat them on theirs heads)

Shiny- We still can't get in contact with Kat or o2, so maybe it'd be a good idea to head back to the mule.

(Oreo folds his arms)

Oreo- I'm sure these guys have found the mule by now. might have moved it to a hangar or storage.

(shiny looks up at Oreo)

Shiny- well, its the only option we got.

(Path stands to his feet)

Path- I afraid she's right. I feel we've reached a point in this little escapade that leaves us no other alternatives but this one.

(Oreo looks at the group and sighs)

Oreo- Okay, but this is how it's going to work. I'll lead, shiny and the twins in the middle and path you bring up the rear. We ain't gonna have time to mess around got it.

(all nod in agreement)

Oreo- alright, just let me take a minute to find something i can use for a weapon and we're outta here.

Go n-eírí an bóthar leat. - May the road rise with you.

(Elbarto and Claire making their way to the motor pool.)

El: Come on babe, they are right behind us.

(As if on cue, a bullet whizzes down they hallway and hits Claire in the thigh. El fires back and kills the attacker, but the damage is done.)

Claire: MY GOD. It hurts...It hurts.

El: Calm down! We don't have time for panic.

(El rips his shirt off and uses it to form a tourniquet around the wound.)

Claire: Just leave me. I'll only slow you down.

El: You know I wont do that. Now here, take this and keep them off of my back.

(El puts a fresh mag into the assault rifle and hands it to Claire. Then, hoists Claire over his left shoulder like a sack of potatoes. He pulls a pistol out of his pants with his right hand and starts running for all he's worth.)

(El and Claire make their way to the motor pool, El running and shooting, and Claire covering their rear. El, still moving, spots a dune rocket (a dune buggy modified with rocket boosters to cover greater distances in less time. Native to only desert planets, the Alliance uses them to travel between outposts) El tosses Claire in the passenger seat. He then takes the assault rifle from her and starts shooting at the other buggys, disabling them)

El: Keep your head down!

(Claire gets the engine started while El covers her. The buggy comes to life with a roar. El jumps over Claire and gets behind the wheel.)

El: This should be fun

(El hits the gas and they take off into the desert.)

*In The Command Center*

Private: Colonel the fugitives have stolen a dune rocket and are escaping into the desert.

Cole: Let them go for now.

Private: But Sir! They killed and wounded many personnel.

Cole: Private, never question my orders. There are greater plans at work here.

Cole:(to himself) I'll see you again Gideon.

(El and Claire in the desert)

El: I'm glad we found this small cave.

Claire:(Caressing her new bandages) I'm even more glad that buggy had a survival kit in it. About what happened back there.... How did you do it Gideon? You were crazy, like an animal.

El: Years of training, and years of battle experience.

Claire: Tell me about your past, how did you turn into such a killer?

El: Ask me later, and I will tell you everything. First things first. Get some sleep, I'll keep watch.

(El grabs the burst transmission radio and sends two transmissions, one to Traquility, and one to Sensei Ojin.)






When you can't run you crawl. When you can't do that...well...you know the rest.

back on TRANQUILITY, O2 and KAT re-enter the ship when their space suits run low on oxygen.
they carefully remove the charge that was put in the engine by BADGERS AGENT.
then they go to the bridge and view the messages that were received while they were outside the ship.

KAT:
"ELBARTO'S alive!"

O2:
"i'll try to get a lock on his signal."

then he tries to fire up the engines, but warning lights go on, across the console... no response from the engines.

KAT:
"it's getting cold in here."

O2:
"yup, engines been powered down a long time.
let's go take a look at it. gee... woulda been nice to have a mechanic right now."

again SHADOW comes to,
still being carried by OREO.

as they pass room FF151,
they see PATHFINDER with the cart concealing the TWINS.

PATHFINDER whispering loudly:
"quickly, in here!"

he gestures to OREO, SHINY and SHADOW to enter room FF151.
they enter the room and close the door.

then, from behind them, they hear a noise...

Oreo and Shiny stop moving when they hear a sound. Someone runs down the corridor, their footsteps echoing loudly. They stop, and heavy breathing is heard, just outside the room.

"Please, let me in. I really need your help, and I'm just about to help you."

The male voice sounds urgent and nervous. The person it belongs to looks like a normal, young doctor. He wears simple medical clothes and is clean and neat. He carries a black suitcase in one hand and a small electronic device in the other. He stands straight and lacks most expression, making him look very Alliance. Only his voice and his eyes give away his feelings.

Taking a deep breath, he presses a button on the device he holds. The top floors of the facility explode.

More explosions follow, then fire alarms, and the sounds of groaning metal. The top few floors are quickly and completely wrecked. The rest of the massive building feels the shock, but stays intact, it's design keeping it safe. Evacuation begins, many corridors becoming busy and confused.

The doctor outside room FF151 breathes out, feeling pure relief. He feels very little remorse, knowing the only inhabitants of the very top floors were terribly twisted men. His mission in the building is accomplished. The doctor pulls off his ID card and drops it, his medical career is over. His thoughts return to escaping, before the Alliance can discover and capture him.

Sounding more urgent than before, and a little more confident, he speaks toward the closed door, "I had to do what I just did. No innocent civilians have been killed, but a lot of evil, sick people have been stopped. We can escape in the confusion. I was informed of your movements throughout this facility, I know you're trying to get away too. Take me with you and I'll pay you very generously. I'm a doctor, I could also try and help your captain."

(oreo, shiny, path and the twins stand in shock. A mysteroius doctor just leveled the top floors of the building and the captian all of sudden awakens.Shiny looks at Oreo.)

Shiny- what do you think?

Oreo- Well until i can remeber some of the weirder stuff that has happened to me, this moment takes the cake.

(Storm and summer suddenly grab hold of shiny's hands tightly.)

Shiny- storm? Summer? whats wrong?

(the twins do not reply, they just stand close to shiny holding on tightly as if they were going to fall. starting to become uneasy with the whole situation speaks out)

Path- I feel, that even though the captain isn't quite in his right mind, he did give an order and we should follow it. anything to get out of this unforsaken place.

oreo- well you heard the man.

(Oreo breaks down the door, reveal, a young man, in plain, clean doctors attire)

Oreo- alright, i guess you're coming with.

Doc- Thank you. you shall not regret it. I promise you, you all will be paid and i also offer my medical services a well.

(Shiny glances over to path is starring at the young doc.)

Oreo- Do you know of any place we can find a gorramn ship? a skiff? anything?

Doc- There is an underground hangar underneath the facility. I'm positive you can procure a ship there.

(Oreo picks the captian up back onto his shoulder)

Oreo- okay, you lead. Any funny business and you're gonna wind up in a pine box. Dong Ma?!

(A look of uncertainty wipes onto the young doc face)

Doc- Y...es, I think?

Oreo-Good answer. Move It!

Doc- you have anger issue's don't you?

Oreo- move your ass...

(With the young doc leading the way, the group make their way towards the underground hangar)

Go n-eírí an bóthar leat. - May the road rise with you.

The Doc is leading the way, shiny catches up to him. keeping pace with the Doc, shiny speaks...

"Thank you Doc for helping us, My names Shinyfrye, but everyone calls me Shiny".

The Doc looks at Shiny, "Is he always this pleasant to be around?" referring to Oreo

Shiny with a happy tone, "oh ya, he's always this way, that's our Oreo.


Oreo shout's. "Enough talking, keep moving".

Shiny turns around, and gives Oreo the "be nice" look.

The Capt mumbles something, the twins start crying.

Shiny thinking, I can't wait to get back on TQ.
"how much further Doc?"

Shiny also thinking.....OZ slang for Australia on earth that was. Wondering why that came to mind?




...Also, I can kill you with my brain.
