Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] Hiding

Who: Callum and Mel Where: Outside Mel's quarters When: After last post   "Oh, not you again!" Mel groaned. Callum stood there, looking at her blankly. "What do you want this time?" "I need help." Mel leaned against the door frame nonchalantly. "Why?" "They're looking for me! Everyone's keeping an eye out for me, ever since I left the medibay." "Oh, well that's too...hey! How'd you know my name?" Callum pointed to a bronze plate on the wall next to the door. It read: Melissa Stratum and Amber Keats. Mel frowned in a defeated manner. 'For a dumb person, he's really not so...no, I take it back,' she thought. 'he's just a man, anyway. Why do I need to help him, that ugly old thing. My god, it's disturbing - he looks just like Stan...even the eyes. The puppy dog eyes. Oh, how can I
resist?' He continued: "So, can you hide me? In your quarters?" Mel's mouth dropped. 'In my quarters? With me? Luckily Amber wasn't here to find out...' "Um, um..." 'Those eyes...puppy dog eyes...' "Whatever. Just..." she grabbed his arm and pulled him inside. "...stay out of trouble, okay?" He nodded and she dropped him on the ground. "I can't believe I'm doing this." Suddenly, the bell rang. "Oh crap! I, I mean...bother. Hide Quickly, hide!" Callum hid under the bunks. Mel opened the door. It was a man. 'Ugh!' she thought. 'U-u-ugly!' He was very short. His eyes were - mechanical. A cyborg... "Did you call for me, miss?" asked the stubby little cyborg. "Pardon?""I'm Bob, the gynaecologist. Did you ask for an appointment?" "No!" exclaimed Mel, irritated. "Oh,
okay. I'll be on my way." he said as he zoomed in on her. "Lock!" Mel yelled. The doors closed and locked. Callum came out from under the bunk. "Look, I'm going to study, but then I'll be going...somewhere." "Parrotts?" "No! I don't drink! Never..." "That's not what I heard!" He smiled coyly. "Okay, wise-guy! Let's get one thing straight! I don't like you, and you don't like me!" "Oh really?" Mel's eyebrows lowered. "I don't want you to interfere. I'm letting you off the hook because you've just come out of a coma, but if you were a normal man you'd be dropped quicker than a whore's underpants!" He smiled. She smiled.   <tag Callum>callum_armour1 <callum_armour1@...> wrote: Who: Callum KochanskiWhere: Sitting on the floor of a disabled toilet cubical on G deckWhen: LaterCallum sat on the floor of the cubical with his legs crossed, trying to remember who he was. In his hand was a screwed up piece of paper that he'd stolen from the chart on his bed in the medibay. "Callum Kochanski" He read aloud, "Lt. Commander Callum Kochanski". He didn't like it, but some how the abrieviation seemed very familiar... CK. Well that was his named taken care of but what about everything else, all these coridoors and rooms that seemed familiar but which he'd swear he'd never seen before. At that moment Callum was distracted from his piece of scrap paper and focused on his own hands. He began to inspect them, they seemed strong and worn. Whatever he used to do must have required a lot of physical work. He moved up, feeling his face... Sideburns, hair... BIG HAIR!Callum
jumped up and looked at his reflection. He wasnt sure what he would find but what he saw was alien to him. The man staring back at him was a stranger. He noticed his eyes, they were different colours. But he didnt have time to worry about that as a mans voice echoed across some kind of comm. system."Attention, All crew are to be on the look out for Callum Kochanski. He has disapeared from the medibay. He is wearing a blue hospital gown and maybe disorientated." Well that was it, people were after him and he had to start moving. Plus this hospital gown was giving a real draft. A few miniutes later Callum found himself moving about the cargo bays behind the promanade. He didnt know how but he really knew his way around well (well enough not to be caught by the people in strange uniforms looking for him). He came to a cargo bay door marked 'Top Shop'. The door was locked but Callum punched in a code
'436/NN1/KCA'.The door opened straight away leaving Callum puzzled."How the hell did i know that?"It didnt take Callum long to change, finding a black shirt and a pair of blue jeans. Then a pair of black Converse. Picking up a black leather coat CK exited the cargo bay and back onto the promanade to be almost caught by a security team."That was close." Callum hid for a moment, he needed help. He'd never make it on his own. It was then he saw a computer information point. "Stratum".Callum stood at the door of the only person he actually knew, because he needed some kind of help. He pressed the bell and waited for the door to open..."Hello Milissa" He said. "I need your help".<tag>        __________________________________________________Do You Yahoo!?Tired of spam? Yahoo! Mail has the best spam protection around http://mail.yahoo.com
