Efof - "Intruders"

Who: Efof Yuwan'Kar
Where: Flight Deck
When: After the Raven picked the wounded Harris up from the planet
Efof stood in the corner of the flight deck when the Raven entered
and landed. He watched as a wounded Harris was taken out of the ship
on a stretcher and carried to the medibay by some medical staff.
Dean saw Efof and called him over. "Efof, what are you doing?"
"Erm… attempting to look busy sir so that nobody gives me anything
else to do!" Efof said honestly.
"Great! Take this up to the Captain in the Drive Room." Dean handed
him a PDA with information on it. Efof sighed. "It contains a report
from Jay about allarently allying with the Hymenoptera. Personally I
think it's a bad idea, but as long as we don't have to invite them
over for tea and biscuits I think we'll be fine."
Efof nodded and took the PDA and left the flight deck.
Normally he would have taken the express-lift elevator all the way
to the Drive room, but today he wanted to take the scenic route
through the Promenade. Burtons had some good summer T-shirts that he
wanted to take a look at.
As he walked down the Promenade he noticed the lack of people there,
an alert light was flashing, but was on silent alarm. Something was
up.
Although it took a lot to rattle Efof, not because he was confident
or brave… not in the slightest. It was mainly because he was naïve
and stupid.
He leisurely walked into a clothes shop as if nothing was going on.
He looked at a few t-shirts, then jumpers and moved down the racks
of clothes. "Blue… no… green… not my colour… now this is nice… no…
oh black!" He touched the black and his hand fell through it as if
it wasn't even there. He looked up and the black was a figure.
The figure leaped at him and grabbed his throat. Efof was shocked
but did a Captain Kirk styled karate chop on the humanoids neck.
This didn't work so he did a Efof Yuwan'Kar styled kick to the balls.
The alien cringed and became transparent, allowing Efof to free
himself and run straight through him.
He ran out of the shop and paused for breath, wondering which way to
run. The alien walked straight through the wall next to him.
"Hmm, clever trick!" Efof said and ducked back into the shop.
The alien followed him by jumping through the wall.
Efof jumped out of the shop and the alien did the same again,
passing through the wall.
"We could do this all day!" The Ffionian said and sidestepped back
into the shop. The alien did the same, then growled impatiently and
lunged towards him, green eyes glowing.
Efof legged it down the long Promenade, with the alien intruder
following him not far behind, but the alien was actually running
through the shops, oblivious to the many walls it was passing
through.
Efof reached Parrotts bar and stood in the doorway shouting at
everyone inside. "Everyone get out quickly, there's an intruder
onboard! And somebody get me a weapon!"
The dozy inhabitants of Parrotts looked at him through groggy eyes.
Nobody moved.
"I'm serious! Come on, hurry up you flippin' bar flies!"
Someone threw a flick knife at him which clattered by his feet on
the floor. "No, throw me a gun, not a knife! Every time I touch it,
my hands go straight through."
Everyone shrugged and Efof sighed. The alien jumped out of Bon
Marche next to him, Efof saw it properly for the first time now. It
has dark leathery skin, and green veins that glowed all over its
body, the creature had no sign of any clothes.
Efof faced it. "Erm… Efof Yuwan'Kar pleased to meet you… I'd like to
be the first to welcome you to the Blue Dwa-"
"Where is the Wormhole Drive?!" Said the Alien. It spoke in a slow
monotonous tone. Efof was shocked, he didn't even realise the alien
could speak.
"Excuse me?"
"Your wormhole drive… where is it?!" Demanded the alien.
"I don't think-"
The dark skinned alien's eyes glowed brighter. He pointed his wrists
at Efof's feet and fired a stinger into his foot. Efof howled in
pain and bent down. The stinger had gone straight through his foot
and embedded into the floor.
Efof's eyes watered and tried to move, but his foot was firmly held
in place. His eyes watered but he still remained fairly chipper.
"What did you do that for? That really hurts!"
The alien stepped closer. "Tell me or I will do the same to your
other foot."
Efof bit his lip.
The alien bent down and looked into his eyes. "Species 45572.
Ffionian. The Hymenoptera destroyed your home planet 1000 years ago.
It is surprising that you are helping them now, but we WILL destroy
them. AND their allies. But we must prevent them and you from
finding our colonies."
"Look, I don't know what-"
The alien aimed his wrist at Efof's other foot. "Alright alright!
The wormhole drive is in the Engineering Control centre, take 4
sections aft and then 7 decks up."
Efof said, cradling his foot.
The alien turned and walked off, leaving Efof pinned to the floor.
He pivoted on the stabbed foot and turned around to look in
Parrotts. "Some help please!"
He groaned as nobody moved, and pivoted again. There was a wall-
mounted radio about 2 meters away from him. "I have to warn them in
Engineering!" He said and tried to step closer to the radio, but
couldn't get any closer. He leaned towards the wall but it was still
too far away. He stretched his good foot closer and ended up doing
the splits on the floor, still no closer to the radio.
<tag! Anyone in engineering? Or does anyone want to try and stop the
alien>
