Re: Its a dirty job.....

Who: Kara, Smith, Hymenoptra shuttle
When: After the mothership soundlessly exploded
Where: Outside BD
Now that he was no longer in mortal danger, Smith's standard persona
re-ass-erted itself.
"I'm alive!"
"No you aren't"
"Im mostly alive!"
Kara didn't bother arguing with this obviously insane hologram.
Meanwhile, the shuttle had begun making odd sounds in Hymenoptrese.
"That doesn't sound to good..."
Luckily, the hole Smith had made with his Starbug was conveniently
positioned directly in front of them.
After landing in the hangar, the two holograms stepped out.
And were immediately surrounded by several dozen bazookoid toting
security grunts.
