Space E-war

[dinoman666]

The tunnel is relatively barren, with only a few stacks of crates and the occasional stalactite or stalagmite providing any real cover. A pair of small Plasma Containment Cells--essentially small barrels filled with explosive energy sources--sat near the entrance of the tunnel, close to the YMIRs, but not close enough to harm them...

[Godzilla Forever]

Jessica spots the barrels and says, "If I can shoot one of those, I may be able to harm them, but someone needs to draw them cleor to them. Who's willing?"

[UndeadRaptor]

The queen nods while grasping onto a few of the eggs with her maw, while the workers and soldiers began exploring the new land with the eggs in between their jaws, the young animals seeming to start liking their new home. "Check the crates!" a merchant called out as a few of the mercenaries opened the boxes up to look for any explosives as one said, "I will, but first we should grab some extra explosives to take those machines down..."

[dinoman666]

The items in the crates were varied. Several of the crates were electronically locked and would have to be hacked through if possible, but some were freely opened. Many of these contained refined minerals mined from the tunnel they were in, as well as the occasional smuggled weapon, but nothing particularly powerful. One crate, however, contained a collection of six disc-shaped, high-explosive grenades...

[UndeadRaptor]

As the merchant opened the crate and found these explosives, a slight smirk was on his face as he said, "got something useful for blowing these mechs up! Anyone else got explosives with them?"

[Godzilla Forever]

The saurian waits patiently for Fhlr-Kahn to approach, drums beign heard approaching, signallnig the king's approach.....

Jessica says, "Nope."

[UndeadRaptor]

The workers and soldiers stop exploring as they hear the beat of the drums, before cowaring back to their mother, the queen...

[dinoman666]

The YMIR mechs continued to wait, watching for any movement and firing the occasional burst of machine gun fire at the distant mercs, though their weapons were relatively inaccurate at a distance. However, they refused to move into the tunnel, as if waiting for something to happen...

[Godzilla Forever]

The beating of drums grows deafening as two guards with drums merge through the crowd, beating at a steady metronome. The saurians part ways for the seven guards, armed with halberds marching forth, with the knig himself emerging behind them, riding atop his mighty Carnosaur steed. Fhlr-Kahn smiles.

'Well, well, well, if it isn't Krythnriin. You just never learn, do you? Come with me; make sure to bring your...... friends, too."

The king turns, his smile quickly disappearing as he heads back towards his palace, the guards following, the two drummers keeping the steady metronome......

Krythnriin shrugs and heads after the king, Kluyr and Mhlrtr following, hopnig their allies follow.

[UndeadRaptor]

The queen soon decides to follow her friends, her childeren soon following behind. They each hold onto the eggs tightly, but not hard enough to break them open as they continue on. A few merchants raise their hands as the lone one moves to them and takes any explosives on them to help try and destroy the mechs with the high amount of explosives...

[Godzilla Forever]

The saurian follows, before kluyr slows down to talk with the queen.

"Just telling you now: Fhlr-Kahn and Krythnriin have love-hate relationship with each other. They're the only people they have left in their families, but sometimes, Krythnriin makes some dumb decisions behind the king and the counsil's back....

[UndeadRaptor]

The queen nodded as she continued along, wondering how much longer it would take before she and her childeren could create their colony upon the new world they were at...

[dinoman666]

One of the YMIR mechs, in an attempt to flush the merchants out, fired another missiles, which crashed into a crate and actually completely destroyed the fragile container, sending pieces of it flying everything and filling the air with glittering debris from the remnants of the palladium that had been inside...

[UndeadRaptor]

The merchants pushed themself further into cover as the crate exploded, before calming as the shower of debris stopped attacking them. The lone mercenary with the large amount of grenades began bundling them up with wires and tape, making a long belt of explosives...

[Godzilla Forever]

The group enters the palace, Kluyr and the queen and her brood are forced to wait outside. Fhlr-Kahn, once they are in the palace, backhands Krythnriin across the face.

"Dammit, Krythnriin! How many times do I have to tell you not to leave without my knowledge or, preferably, allowance?! Do you even know what those things are?!"

"N-no," Krythnriin says. "We found them when we crash-landed-"

"Crash landed?! you crash landed your ship?"

'Yup," Krythnriin says.

""Tell me," Fhlr-Kahn snarls, "HOW did you crash land?"

"I flew the ship too fast towards it and we crashed into it."

"......ANYWAYS. Why the HELL are those things here?! What do they plan to do here?"

"K-kluyr said that they anted to make a colony here, my leige."

"......A colony?"

"Yes."

"A..... colony?"

"Yup."

"And you told them this was okay?"

"........"

"Well?" Fhlr-Kahn hisses. "Did you?!"

"Yes," Krythnriin says hesitantly.

Fhlr-Kahn sighs and rubs his eyes.

"Ugh.. whatamIevergoingtodowithyou........... Alright. Tell them it is fine."

"Really?" Krythnriin says.

"Yes.... jsut please, don't do this again."

Krythnriin smiles and heads out to tell the queen. Mhlrtr moves next to the king.

"He jsut doesn't know when to quit, does he?" Fhlr-Kahn says.

"Nope.... and I don't think he ever WILL learn when to."

[UndeadRaptor]

The queen sits and waits, while some of the youngest soldiers and workers begin climbing on the walls of the castle out of boredom, still holding onto the eggs in their jaws...

[Godzilla Forever]

Krythnriin emerges and says, "Good news guys! You're fine to set up a colony!"

Kluyr translates for the queen and her fellow kin into their language.....

[dinoman666]

The Collector Cruiser finally entered the Fathar system, making its way slowly but steadily towards Lorek...

The YMIR mechs again went silent, waiting for any signs of life to show themselves...

[UndeadRaptor]

The queen nods as both she and her childeren begin to move away from the castle, each one still holding onto the eggs as they head further from the castle...

[Godzilla Forever]

Jessica fires her sniper blindly again, this tiem three tiems befroe reloading.....
