OOC:- hopefully this will salvage both posts and not cause any
conflicts.
Who:- multiple marrooned medics, a crazed shrink, a pilot and
Dr "..aahh sod it.......cant think of a Keto nickname
Where:- same place as the last time you asked
When:- dont care
"Mommy?" he whined "I'm cold" and sure enough the clothes that had
been badly torn, were now verrrry small on both twins
"Urm guys.... any suggestions?" Tara queried...
"How far did we crash from the research base?" Hazel asked
Jay "Theres probably somethnig there we can give them"
"Didnt get a chance to check the navi-comp" Came jays reply
"from what I saw I'd say North, for a good few hours at least"
"Judging by Mr Chryslers apparent inability to do ANYTHING.." Keto
piped "I say if thats his opinion we go south, for a week"
Cerebrum got a tricorder, and punched up a
sonic scan of the region. "Let's see," he said out loud, examining
the map, "According to this, the medical outpost we're looking for is
twenty kilometers south."
Twenty kilometers later
"I don't see anything," Jay said, as they left the vehicle, into a
clearing in the jungle that looked just like any other clearing in
the jungle.
Cerebrum got out the tricorder again, examined it and then turned it
around. "Oops," he said, "Had it upside down. The medical outpost is
actually forty kilometers north."
Thirty kilometers later
"I see you neglected to inform us about the river," Dr Keto said,
while looking over the two hundred meter wide, thirty meter deep
river that the vehicle was parked in front of.
"My bad," Cerebrum said, "I didn't know what the squiggly blue line
on the map meant."
"Anything else in between here and the medical outpost that you
haven't told us about?"
"There's a squiggly brown line marked ravine, a roundish gray thing
marked volcano and a large number of small, fast moving objects forty
meters to the east heading this way, marked carnivorious dinosaurs.
That's about it."
"Well" said Vanessa. "I say we worry about the river now, and figure
out a way to get around everything else when we get to it"
"Good plan" said Jay "I say we follow the river to see if it narrows
enough at any point to cross it"
Cerebrum spoke "Sounds like a plan, everybody back in the truck!"
everyone looked at him.
"Sorry"
A few hours later Jay was still driving, although he had to stop at
one point when Tara had come over the intercom saying amber insisted
on sitting up front with him, so now she was sat just next to him in
the cab.
The crew inside the main body were arguing..well, Cerebrum and Keto
at least.
"I dont care about your deluded opinion Patrick" Keto calmly said "I
still think Daffodil's are essential in any garden."
"AND I SAY YOU NEED TULIPS!! what part of....."
Cerebrum didnt manage to finish his sentence.
Shakespeare reached for the intercom.."Jay" he said "Why for art thou
stoppe?"
Jay spoke "Um..well you know those dinosaurs with three horns and a
bad attitude?"
"Triceratops?" Wildflower suggested "That's the guy"
"What about them Chrysler?" Keto demanded to know
"We got one right in front looking pissed off and he looks like he's
gonna charge"
"Cant you reverse?"
"Got one behind too.."
The trees either side rustled
"um...guys......" said Jay
<anyone?>
