*Action* B.D. Call home.... pt 3

Who: Efof, Jayne, Delvroso, Micky
Where: Kingdom of Little Cheftonia
When: Just before the "Pulmonater" was activated
A deep trembling could suddenly be felt under their feet. Efof, Micky
and Jayne started to get worried, it was only Delvroso and his people
who remained calm.
"What is that?" Jayne asked.
"They're launching the 'Pulmonater'." said Delvroso. "We must be
under attack!"
"What's the Pulmonater?" Mickey asked.
"It's a mobile weapons platform. But it's not finished yet. Only the
King has orders to launch it, but he's launched it too soon! It's not
been tested."
Efof looked around. "I can't see any weapon. Where's it coming from?"
"We have to move." Said Delvroso. Just after they did, the ground
beneath them started to open. It slid back slowly revealing a
gigantic hole in the floor.
"We've been stood on a large trapdoor all this time?" Micky asked.
Delvroso nodded his chubby Mollopod head.
Efof stood at the edge of the hole and looked down. "It's like a
James Bond baddie's lair down there!" He said excitedly. "It's a
really big drop."
"Get away from the edge then!" Shouted Jayne, partly due to parental
instinct, but mostly that she didn't want to have to go find Efof
after he fell deep into a secret underground lair.
Efof came away from the edge only a minute later. "It's huge!" He
said.
"What is- oh!" Said Mickey. A large snail emerged from the hole,
presumably pushed up from a moving platform underneath. The platform
connected with the ground and the snail stayed motionless.
"It's almost as Big as the Blue Dwarf!" Efof exclaimed. He ran over
to touch it. The skin was constructed of metal, and the large shell
on the super-snail's back housed a mean looking turret pointing up at
the sky.
"Efof don't touch it!" Jayne snapped.
"What a weird invention." Said Micky.
"It's cool!" Said Efof, poking and prodding it's thick metal surface.
A small hatch opened up and a gattling gun came out and pointed at
Efof. He quickly put his hands up. "Okay okay, I won't touch!" he
said, and ran back to the others.
Delvroso received a call to his walkie-talkie, and then immediately
reached for the large gun that hung across his chest. "I'm sorry
guys." He said to Jayne, Efof and Micky. "But I'm going to have to
arrest you."
Delvroso motioned to his men, and they surrounded the Humans and
Ffionian.
"But why?" Jayne asked. "What have we done?"
Delvroso. "It's nothing personal. Orders is orders. You're being
arrested for conspiring with the Hymenoptera and endangering this
planet."
<Tag guys, how do we get out of this? Is anyone going to help us?>
---------------------------------
Who: Captain Jay
Where: Drive-Room, Blue Dwarf
When: Same time
"Captain!" Shouted Janis Cooper, a technician who had been drafted
into the Drive-Room to help out whilst other crewmembers were on the
planet. She was looking at a computer screen showing all ships in the
area.
"There's a Hymenoptera ship approaching!" She cried.
Captain Chrysler came out of his office quickly. "Is it going to
attack us?"
"No... it's ignoring us, and opening fire on the Mollopod planet."
