When the bough breaks...
Who: Tara, Phil, White Wolf, Ashley, Mp, and maybe a few others...
Where: Drive room.
When: Right when Phil & Tara seemed to be breaking up!
<snip>
"Ermm I don't mean to interrupt but could you two....." WW started to
say but was interrupted by both Tara and Phil shouting "SHUT - -
UP "Only then rembering who they were saying shut up to and added a
belated "sir" afterwards.
"Who said I would be moving out? If you remember they are my quarters
after all!"
"Ermmm...No I think you'll find that the quarters belong to me...not
you...me"
"Fine then YOU HAVE THEM! I'D RATHER BE ON EARTH THAN WITH YOU HERE!"
she screeched at her husband.
Phil brought out his secret weapon..."What, with James?" It was like
a blow to the stomach that knocked all the wind out of her. She
deflated like a balloon.
"H.. how did you....."
"I'm the security chief darling...I know about EVERYTHING that
happens on this ship...." The rest of the crew were watching the
exchange between the two like a bad tennis match, the approaching
nebula forgotten for much better entertainment.
"It was coded..... a special code.... you can't...." she babbled
"You forget...I'm also an ex science offer with about half a million
years under my belt...there are only 3 codes on this I haven't
cracked yet....", replied Phil..."Don't worry sir, yours is one of
them, the others is Niples code and for some reasons Cains...but I'm
not bothered about him"
Tara gulped down the lump that was forming in her throat, "So now you
know about me. What... do... you.... think.... then." The last few
word were forced out with a great deal of effort.
"My thoughts are my own...Lets just say You wont have to worry
getting you own place...cos I'm moving out...right now!"
<end snip>
"um, Phil... I think you should put your differences aside for the
moment..." interupted White Wolf again.
"Wot in the smegging 'ell is it now?" Snapped Phil angrily.
"I just thought you two might want to know the nebula is clearing on
the screen somewhat, and we seem to be drifting straight towards the
dark side of a planet ahead, and at the rate it's getting larger in
our screen, we probably have 15 minutes to impact. Either that, or
some goit has slipped an eight ball in front of the ships forward
camera..." Explained the huge hamster matter of factly, before
continuing, "What we need to do is come up with some way to save the
Blue dwarf, because we don't have enough time to evacuate."
Tara's face paled a little, and she yelled at Phil, "Phil, what are
you waiting for? Do something!"
Phil looked rather embarrassed, and remarked quietly, "um, I already
evacuated..." while grabbing the seat of his pants and giving them a
quick wiggle, "They really oughta make these JMC uniforms capable of
holding two loads."
"Eww..." remarked Tara.
"EEEEEEEEEeeeeee" interupted MP before stopping on the tread mill to
point at the screen, and then suddenly getting thrown off it and into
a nearby wall with a >THUNK!< as the treadmill kept going.
"What was that all about? did he have an idea on how to get us out of
this mess?" Asked White Wolf, nodding towards MP, while tapping his
chin in thought...
"He just wanted to know since we're all going to die, if he could
play a quick round of space invaders on the big screen." answered
Phil.
"oh. I was hoping that he might have had something to contribute...
Say Phil, you really ought to do something about that sweating
problem of yours, it makes lines in your... um... nevermind."
remarked the hamster catching his glare, "Hmm... Do you think we'd
have enough time to sling shot the dwarf into a orbit if we ordered
the pilots to use all the Starbugs as tow boats?"
Both Phil and Tara legged it out of the Drive Room on past Cain, who
was entering the drive room as they exited and replied in unison to
White Wolf - "I'll tell Jay & the pilots to launch immediately!"
{OOC - Go ahead Jay, it's your baby!}
RPG -
"Why hello, Cain. What brings you to the drive room?" Asked the Huge
Hamster to the security man in black.
<OOC - Tag Cain, Feel like popping your question?>
