Who: White Wolf.
When: Just moments before Kara and Seymour blew everybody over.
Where: The left of the communications tower on landing strip #39, New
Ibiza Spaceport.
As the six foot one inch, hamster made his way towards the comms
tower while shooting up a more bugs that kept insisting on getting in
his way, he was just rounding a corner between a bug bomb crater and
the building when Miniphil collided into him running at full tilt and
knocking White Wolf over the crator's edge before he knew what hit
him.
The huge hamster rolled down the side of the crator with several loud
thumps, and one quick exclaimation of "Ouch!" from the hamster as he
belly flopped to a landing on the crator bottom.
MP paused at the crators edge glancing at the BD's new Captain
tumbling down and snickered slightly to himself, then legged it
before anyone spotted him - especially the hamster.
White Wolf spit some dirt clods out of his mouth as he rolled over,
looking up the crators slope and muttered to himself, "Blimey - I'll
never know why small rodents prefer keeping close to walls all the
time when their running quickly, I keep getting run over whenever I
do it!"
The huge hamster picked up his weapon and started climbing out of the
crator, while commenting to a nearby comical U shaped dead soldier
bug which had it's rear half flopped on top of it's front as the
explosion that created the crator had killed it, "And what's with all
these holes around here anyways?!? I thought you guys were
the 'Hymenoptera', not 'prairie dogs R us'."
And just as the gargantuan hamster was finally standing up and
dusting himself off at the crators edge, the Space Eagle suddenly
flew by really low, and it's slipstream knocked him rolling back down
the side of the crator coming to a stop with him face to face with
the dead soldier bug.
Whereupon the overgrown rodent snapped at it's face in anger, "Well,
what are you laughing at?!? At least they didn't shoot me in the arse
like *your* buddies did!"
Then there was a loud >splerk< as the bug suddenly exploded before
him, spraying some green & red gooey gonk all over the huge hamster.
"Yuck! Hey whoa - I don't feel very gggoooooddd... " Said White Wolf
as his voice quickly trailed off and he passed out.
And then, as if coming out of some sort of wierd dream, the next
thing the rotund hamster was aware that he was standing in front of
an expectant assembly of Blue Dwarf crewmembers with a microphone in
his paw. He looked around for a moment to get his bearings, noticing
a neon sign on a wall that said `The Shipwreck' as few of the
crewmembers danced a little near it, and spotted Efof jiggling while
holding a giant dead soldier-bug in one corner next to a pair of half
chewed human legs with flared trousers.
White Wolf took a deep breath and said into the microphone, "Ok
folks, I see your all adapting pretty well to our little shore leave
interuption, which I'm very glad to see - And second, I have a bit of
news for everyone, just a little while ago Seymour Niples has
informed me that he has been recently re-assigned back to the Blue
Dwarf as our resident Ambassador. And I'd like everyone give him a
big round of applause, while we wish him well in his new job."
The huge hamster waited for the clapping to die down, before
continuing,"And I'm sure some of you are wondering when we're going
to hear the good or bad news of who's going to be our new permanent
Captain - Well, I for one hope everyone thinks it's good news that
Niples has informed me on good authority that it's going to be me..."
The overgrown hamster paused to glare with "that's not funny" look on
his face as he heard someone to one side of the stage go "Bahahahaddd
NUUUZZZ" in a sheep like a voice.
Then six foot, one inch hamster continued, "Well, Anyways - As your
new permenant Captain, I'd like to direct everyone's attention to the
fact that this isn't all over quite yet. I want everyone to..."
The huge hamster broke off as the stage and dance floor began to do
it's own shimey, and everyone quickly turned towards the clubs huge
plexiglass window display of the scene outside in seemingly slow
motion as the nearby volcano blew it's top completely off and sending
a huge chunk of it shooting straight up into the sky and apparently
off into space, while hundreds of other huge bits of flaming rock
came crashing down all over totally flattening dozens of buildings at
time. And the dance floor exploded upwards as a monsterous 30 foot
bug head pushed it's way up through the steel reinforced concrete
flooring, and Phil shouted to Niples to him, "I got a name for this
one, 'King Bug'!"
Then elephantine hamster finished speaking into the
microphone, "Calmly evacuate the building and report to their
Department heads for further orders.", as nearly everyone rapidly
stampeded towards the clubs exit, while the rest of the command crew
up on the stage quickly knocked him aside as they pushed & shoved
thier way off of the stage.

Meanwhile outside, Jay #3244 commented, "Hey, would look at that huge
bug coming outta the ground over there? It looks like it's got a 18th
Century ocean liner stuck on it's head!"
"Isn't that pilot Dean Thomas out in front?" remarked Jay #2341
watching several people suddenly came running out of the main door,
jump off the huge bug, and run away for dear life.
Jay #0001 commented, "Well, you certainly gotta hand to Dean - even
we haven't crashed a ocean liner into some huge bugs head."
<One really big bug signed for & delivered - over to you Jay!> :)
