Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] *Actionette* Phoenix- \"Out of control\"

Dean carried on running towards the Raven, the flightbay runway didn't seem so long in a shuttle, but on foot it seemed like miles.The huge bay door closed shut with a slam. Dean stopped and looked back at it, realising what he had done.*On the flight deck*
 
Kara had just lost her mind.
 
Ok so 'just' lost her mind was perhaps the wrong term, some would argue that happened a long time ago, perhaps even before she was killed. Of course the nit-pickers would say that her point of death was EXACTLY when she lost her mind, as it was now buried 6 feet under along with her body and this here in shuttlebay now was just a simulation of that which had been her mind. Rio figured it easier to say she'd just lost it now.
 
Not that is was an unjustified statement, for McGellen was at this moment  launching her hard-light self at the nearest, heavily built, heavily armed, marine who was heavily backed up by lots of other heavily built, heavily armed marines.
 
"Er..you'll have to excuse my friend..." Lomaz said to the nearest marine "Her ah...goldfish died this morning"
She folded her arms and watched with a smirk as Kara had the marine on the floor and screamed like a banshee, as she sat on his chest and pounded him in the face with her fists repeatedly. 'One thing you don't wanna do, is mess with a hard light hologram' thought Rio 'Especially Kara'  with that, knowing Kara was more than capable of probably taking out the entire platoon single handedly when she was in this kind of mood, she went and got a coffee.
 
*In the airlock*
 
Dean was used to screwing things up when It came to the flight deck. If he wasn't crashing shuttles he was ham-fisting another equally well thought out, and poorly carried out attempt to complete whatever his task happened to be, which would invariably cause Jay or another of the navigation staff more work as they tried to fix Dean's screw ups. But hey, they only kept him around for shits and giggles.
 
Right now however Dean was trying to work out how he'd explain his latest cock-up. He'd used the 'It was the invisible mutant space baboon's' to many times for it to still be believable.
 
Most people would be trying to work out how to get out of the mess he'd found himslef in.
 
*Inside Dean*
 
"What the hell are we going to do?!" Asked Alota.
"Don't know what youre worried about.." said Keto cutting the connectors that held the chip in place "We're in a spaceship, we'll be fine"
"And what about Dean?"
Keto shrugged "I could use a new coatstand"
"Besides" said Jay "That worm took a chunk out of the Phoenixe's hull plating...and oh how I'll kill that swine for it when we get out of here...but It wont be able to stand up to de-pressurisation"
"WHAT ARE WE GOING TO DO?!" Keto screamed.
"Isn't it funny.." Phil mused "The white blood cells attack us, who are here to help Dean...but they dont even take a second look at the chip..I mean it's embedded in his brain! It's blatantly a foreign object, could have saved us a lot of hassle..
"Yeh but where would the fun be in that" Jay said "We have to find a story somewhere.."
"What?"
"To tell the grand-kids!"
"Look relax" said Jay "Theres an emergency release for the doors, Dean has a 20-second window from the moment the claxon sounds to trigger it"
"You realise Jay..sweetie..that mean's were counting on Dean?" Alota said
"WERE GONNA DIE!!!" 
"We'll have to do it ourselves!" Phil said "Fly out of here and trigger it with the shuttle"
"We can't leave!" Said Keto "If I stop working on the chip now thats it's been tmapered with it will release and electrical charge that would cause brain damage to Dean"
"Would we even notice?!"
"My point FeBuggure" Kato sighed "Is that at our size the charge will kill us!"
The claxon sounded.
"Well Doc' you better hurry you got 20 seconds..."
"It's going to take at least 20 minutes!"
"Sod it.." Jay said and released the Phoenixes gatling guns.
"We do it the half-assed way..." he opened fire on the chip's connectors, he smirked as the guns wound down and the chip floated away from Dean's brain.
"You idiot!" Keto scolded "You could have shot his brain!"
"But I didn't did I?"
"But you could have!"
"But....I didn't..." Jay was enjoying this, Keto's face and gone bright red with rage.
"Look we don't have time for this just fly us out of here!" Alota yelled.
"Already on it" Jay said, as Keto used the arms to grab hold of the chip. "That way!" Keto ordered, directing Jay towards Deans ear canal.
"I would SO love to switch on the extenral loudspeakers here and shout REALLY REALLY loud right now..." Jay said as he guided the small shuttle through an ocean of wax.
With a  'splutch' the Phoenix burst through the last layer of ear wax, and rocketed away from Dean's head. Jay seeting a direct course for the emrgency release switch. He swung the craft in a handbrake turn, and used the right leg of the Midget to kick the lever.
Holly's voice was heard. "Emergency release activated opening inner doors"
Tara looked at the countdown on the dashboard. "Just one second left? Did you have to cut it so close?"
"Hey I wasnt worried for a second" Jay replied
"Then why are you trembling in fear?"
"Because were back in the ship...and small enough for the midget to..put us places..."
"What happens to the outer doors when the emergency release is pulled?" asked Jack, as the inner doors slid open and Jay piloted through the widening gap between them.  "They dont open" Keats answered
"So what about the Raven? It's hurtling toward them at take off speed?"
 
a loud KERAANNNGGG echoed up the tunnel.
 
"That" said Jay
"Ooo..Dean's gonna be pissed..."
 
<so were tiny and loose in a GREAT BIG SMEGGIN space ship...tag>

<snip>Keats walked forward slighty 'Hey guys, can we move ourselves AS WELL as Dean at the same time...'<end snip>"Yes!" Seymour said standing up with such a thrust that he almost knocked Keats flying."We should get on with the mission at hand!" Dean was in need of our help, and that is what we're here to do! We are supposed to remove the chip from his brain and all we have succeeded in doing is taking over his nervous system and rendering him unconscious!!!""Awww!" said everyone currently making Dean appear as if he humping the wall for a laugh.Seymour folded his arms like a school teacher waiting for them to stop messing about and pay attention."I can wait just as long as you!" he said. "Don't make me order you in the name of the Queen."Jay laughed as Johnny made Dean hump Seymours antique hat stand. Canazza took the controls and made Dean dance with one of Seymours mannequins wearing an expensive suit, everyone carried on laughing."Right that's it, I order you in the name of the Queen!" Seymour said. Getting out a rather old scroll. "In accordance with Royal law made by the archbishop of Centerbury in the 17th century…"Everyone else sighed at Seymours annoying moaning and stopped controlling Dean. "Okay okay if it shuts you up!" Said Jay.Seymour pointed an accusing finger at the pilot.Keto took the controls for the Phoenix's arms and Jay flew him to the correct area of the brain."Ooh shiny!" Said Canazza.The chip was by their comparison half the size of a football pitch, shiny silver with the odd flashing light indicating it was still transmitting. About 10 metal clamps on each side embedded the chip securely onto the base of Dean's Cerebral quartex. Luckily the layer of liquid around the brain was thick enough to see all of the chip, rather than in the small capillaries they'd flown through to get here.In the centre of the chip was an engraving of Keto and Cerebrum's faces grinning and various words boasting about their empire."Hmm, great craftsmanship!" Mused Keto.Jay flew closer, Keto took the controls of the Phoenix's robotic arms and started snipping at the grips piercing into the brain to remove it."Deans on the move!" Johnny said in alarm. "He's not doing what I'm telling him to!""He's rebelling?" Asked Phil."Yeah he's going down to the flight deck… oh he's on the flight deck. And he's running towards the Raven… uh oh…""Uh oh what?" asked Tara."The Raven is taking off…""Someones nicking it? He'll be well pissed!"Seymour sighed. "Is nothing safe these days? Common thugs will steal anything, crackheads- that's who it'll be. It'll get melted down and go straight up their noses that will." "No that's not the problem." Johnny said. "Dean is just getting over a concussion, he's obviously not thinking straight- he's running after the Raven towards the hanger bay doors!!!"---Outside Dean---Dean ran towards the slowly flying Raven. The marine controlling it barely knew what he was doing and lurched to one side, slowly moving forwards into the airlock tunnel- the runway area that seals one end at a time so that air does not escape when a shuttle launches."Come back with my Raven!!!" Shouted Dean and vaulted the first airlock door as it began to close, not realising that he would be trapped when it shut and sucked out into space when the outer door opened.---Back in the Phoenix---"Control him, get him to turn around and go back before the doors close!" Seymour bellowed."He's not responding, he's … fighting me!" said Johnny."Knock him out again!" Cried Phil."Can we just fly out of him and leave him behind?" Said Seymour selfishly. "I can't die, I'm a figurehead of society!""Pfft!" laughed Jay. "Anyway we cant just leave the smegger to die!""Then what do we do?!!!"Dean carried on running towards the Raven, the flightbay runway didn't seem so long in a shuttle, but on foot it seemed like miles.The huge bay door closed shut with a slam. Dean stopped and looked back at it, realising what he had done.<OOC- so what DO we do?
