What's that Skippy? There's a shark in the well?

Who: Amber, Command Staff,Where: Command DeckWhen: During the First Shuttle to the Red Dwarf~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Amber swore, loudly. The other officers and staff in the Drive Room went silent and looked at her. "What? Get on with something." She snapped, and turned her attention to the comms console that she was stood in front of, leaning over the nervous shoulder of the poor operator. She lowered her tone to a whisper "Nothing is getting through? At all?""No Ma'am..." The guy offered up."Well have you tried Welsh?" Amber hissed at him."Yes Ma'am, Welsh, binary, Gaelic. I even tried Klingon and Na'vi after those popular surges in the 21st century film culture recently. Nothing. There is no one out there to respond Ma'am."Amber swore. Louder. Again.The Drive-room didn't go silent this time, but a hushed chuckle seemed to ripple around the room at her. She marched over to the Navi-com and once again stared at the star charts. Nothing on any sensor range or bandwidth was familiar. Nothing at all. She punched in a few buttons, and the boosted scanners that engineering had just finished jumped into life. Still nothing. "God SMEGGING DAMNIT! This is not what I need right now." She downloaded the star chart data onto a portable computer and marched out of the drive room. She spoke into the comms as she went, "Jay, I'm coming over. I need you to look at his. I'll catch up" -------------------------------Who: Amber, boarding Party,
Where: Red Dwarf!
When: During the attack in the field.Amber jumped on the Jet-bike that she had jammed into the Starbug to get her caught up with the group. The radiation suit made it slightly more difficult to drive, but she punched the shuttle and headed for the hydroponics bay, where she thought the team had been headed.--- Snip ---"Quick, get behind the trailer!" Rosette ordered and they used the metal trailer
as protection from the gunfire.
Efof dived into the trailer and peered out over the top.
"Can you tell us more about them?" Rosette shouted up to him.
"They're not just normal Kangaroos. Efof said. "They're genetically engineered,
they're half kangaroos, half..."--- End Snip ---Amber rounded the corner and saw these creatures menacing the group. They were creatures that resembled Kangaroos, at least for the most part, but it was quite clear that at some point someone had had a laugh, because they were at least half dolphin. Their kangaroo faces ending in cute bottle noses, their tails thick and scaly, ending in a dolphins fin. When you saw one from the back, the dorsal fin was clearly prominent on their spine. As they opened fire on the group again, one or two noticed Amber on the Jet bike. She locked the throttle open on the bike and jammed a pen into the steering column in an attempt to get it to aim straight for the group of... Dolroos? Kangafins? She leaped free, rolling to break the impact and crouched low heading for the group. Hoping that her distraction would either a, hit the group, b, explode or c, cause enough of a fuss to give them time to run the smeg away.She landed with a sprawl into the trailer."Ja... Captain Chrysler Sir. Need you to look at some star charts. Obviously, when you've got a minute..." she said, turning her head back to the group of genetically altered weirdness.<Tag anyone!>OOC - Today is my Tenth anniversary aboard the Dwarf. I've enjoyed it and wish I was in a place to post more at the moment. I've met some awesome people and some awesome writers, and long may it continue! Cheers!
