Calgon Take Me Away

<SNIP>
Jay slumped back in the chair.
"That." he said "Is how it's done...c'mon, lets pick up the supplies"
"Sir." Jaxx said "The supplies...they, they would have burned..."
"Just when I was thinking it was getting too easy..." Jay muttered. "Guess we go home then.."
He turned the space eagle back toward the exit and headed back to the Blue Dwarf.
"At least the others got SOME supplies, right sir?" Jaxx asked after a few minutes of silence.
"Sir?"
"SIR?"
Jay had blacked out again, the Space Eagle hurtling a full pelt toward the shuttle the others were in, on a direct collision course....
<SNIP>

Jaxx muttered, "OH SMEG!" as he quickly looked at the controls and flashed back to his training on Virtual Fighter. Jaxx muttered to himself, "Hmm lets see....navigation board, landing controls, weapons........ah here we go flight control." Jaxx quickly examined the control panel and saw the control were set to the pilots control panel. Then Jaxx switched the controls to the co-pilot panel. Jaxx took a few seconds to get used to the controls before he regained control of the eagle and barely avoided the 'Firefly Class Bomber' as he circled around. Jaxx muttered, "Hmmmm....Its not much different from the games I trained with."

Jaxx activated his watched to call Holly, "Holly this is Jaxx come in." There was a long pause before Holly spoke up, "Hey bub. What's Up?" Jaxx responded, "We need the docking bay clear for two ships coming in. Blue Boy is bringing in a Bomber full of supplies and I am bringing in a fighter with an injured Captain Flyboy. Notify The Doc and Miss Jones to meet us in the hanger with first aid." Holly said, "No problem bub."

Jaxx turned off the watch and tried to wake up Jay again. Jaxx spoke up, "Yo Flyboy wake the SMEG UP! Damn it! I really don't feel like telling the others you died on my watch, .........especially Miss Jones. That woman is likely to go bug nuts if she sees you dead." Jaxx saw no movement from Jay as he sat out cold. Jaxx muttered, "Man this bites. Of all the crew members to stay behind I get stuck with the Narcoleptic Suicidal Flyboy. The worse part is no matter how many times I have to save you and your crew your still gonna treat me like an outcast." Jaxx sat in silence for a few minutes.

Then Jaxx muttered, "You know what after we land and unload the supplies I'm gonna take a few supplies and take a nice long soak in my tank. A nice long soak to calm my nerves and heal my wounds. While I am at it I'm gonna try some of my new games out. Yeah. I don't feel like being social with those gits anyway. All I need is my tank and my game console. After all I managed to get by 3 million years with just that, but this time I have new games. Hopefully we can go a day without being attacked."

Jaxx slowly followed the Bomber into the hanger and safely landed the eagle. Then Jaxx opened the cockpit and gently removed Jay and carried him to a table as Cassandra and Phi quickly rushed to tend to him. Jaxx then entered the bomber and quickly began unloading the crates and boxes into the hanger with a few of the others. Jaxx was trying to avoid any conversations with the others. So Jaxx only answered with one word answers when he could. After Jaxx unloaded the boxes and crates to the hover skid he opened a few boxes and crates and pulled out some coffee, some hard liquor, a few weapons, some ammo and a few boxes of cigars that he stuffed into a large duffel bag then walked away without saying a word.

Jaxx pulled out a cigar and put it in his mouth as he was walking to his lab in the poorly lit hallway. Suddenly a Huzzard tried to ambush Jaxx. Jaxx quickly grabbed the Huzzard by the neck and snapped it like a twig. Jaxx looked at the Huzzard and smiled, "Dinner and a show." Jaxx slung the corpse over his shoulder and continued his way to his lab. Jaxx thought to himself, "I'll have me some grub then some time in my tank. I pity the fool to tries to stop me."
