*away in the distance, the hunters see a small fleet of fighters and recon ships...*
Katt: wow, this looked like some battle...
Trace: yeah... who do you think did all this, sir?
Katt: I havent the slightest clue, they look pretty skilled though. *kssh* *Katt tunes her radio so the whole fleet can hear* Every body be careful! Recon group 1 and 2 search east, group 3 go west, Delta Red, stick with me! were seaching for survivors, people, so if you see anything report to me immdeatly!
Fleet: Roger!
*The fleet breaks up, one group goes east, one west, and one north, right toward the wreckage of the Hunting Star.*
Vale: i dont see anthing... besides rubble
Trace: yea i know. huh? wait, whats that, theres something on the radar!
Katt: yeah i see it too, its probably just another crashed ship... Kero, try to contact it, you got the radios system
Kero: roger, sir. *Kero trys to contact the Hunting Star, but with no luck* Sorry sir, i cant do anything
Katt: damn, i guess were landing then
Vale: are you sure about that, sir? i mean we dont even know who they are... or what they are for that matter. i dont know if thats such a good idea...
Trace: well there only one way to find out right? lets land!
*Delta Red and the Star Lancer land a little ways away from the Hunting Star and co. Trace, Vale, Kero, and Katt all get out from ther fighters and approach the site where all of the hunters are. Kero jumps forward, and points the laser sights of his plasma rifle right on bughunters forehead*
Kero: Who are you! and what did you do here! tell us now or i'll...
Katt : *interrupting Kero*Calm down! cant you tell they arent gonna shoot us? they're ships wrecked any way... *turns back to bughunter* Ahem, sorry about that... anyway though, I'm Kathrine Reinwood, Commander of the Apocalypse II. i landed down on this planet to ask you one thing... what the hell happened here?

(ooc: ah, the grand entrance of Katt. I hope Tassatul doesn't mind you coming to me first. I'll start my post right before you talk to BugHunter)
*The hunters can hear a low rumble. They stop what they're doing and look around to find its source*
BugHunter: "whats that?"
*Suddenly, in grand fashion, the sound gets louder as the clouds give way to a small fleet of fighters and recon ships. This of course gets the hunters' attention*
Young-Tusk: "woa..."
Now blending the two posts together
*As Delta Red and the Star Lancer land a little ways aways from the Hunting Star, BugHunter tells his men to be ready for anything. the hunters get the little dialogue from Kero which almost starts a firefight, but Katt intervenes (refer to Katt's post)*
BugHunter: "Excuse me, but i should be asking you who you are! We are commissioned by the Hunting Guild to be here. Whats you're story?"

Cobra and Kal come to the peak of a small hill. Cobra suddendly crouches low and motions for Kal to do the same. Kal has to kneel and bend nearly in half over his knee to cover himself behind the embankment.
Kal simply asks, low and demanding,"What?"
Cobra unlatches his sword and motions for kal to be quiet.
Kal slowly raises his head as observes the engagement between the two strange ships....

*Cobra pulls his goggles down over his eyes, and toys with the magnification settings. He still hasn't took his hand off his sword*
"Hmmm....that looks kinda like Kero... and Trace? What the hell? The Apocolypse isn't here, is it?"
*Cobra's view slowly drifts over Katt*
"Katt! That's her! The Apocolypse is here!"
*Cobra jumps over the small cleft, then slids down the hill, not even waiting for Kal. Then he runs as fast as he can to make it to the meeting*

Kal, not so anxious to meet the strangers, remains crouched behind the embankment for a moment. Hesitantly he rises and then moves to the crest. There he waits for someone to notice the new stranger.

*looks over to see Cobra coming up over the hill, Kal hasnt stood up yet*
Trace: Hey... isnt that... Look, sir! Its cobra, at least i think it is...
Katt: *gives a laugh* Yes, of couse it is! I mean look at that sword! *cobra finishes running up to the ship*(to cobra) Whats a pack rat like you doing here? *turns back around to finish her conversation with bughunter, but notices Vale looking blankly into the distance*
Vale: S-sir... whats that? *the whole party looks over and sees what shocked her so much, of course its Kal coming up to join the rest.* Its an... angel?
(ooc: FYI, trace and kero are guys, vale and katt are girls)

BBBWWWAAAAAAAAAAAAHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
*Cobra shrieks like a little kid.*
Cobra: "It's been such a long time!!"
Trace: "Cobra...we saw you two weeks ago..."
*cobra sticks his tounge out at trace*
Cobra: "So, Is the Apocolypse here and everything!? Did you bring anymore cool stuff? Like guns!? And where's Kero-kero?"
*Cobra sees Kero a few feet behind Katt*
Cobra: "Oh. HIIIIIiiiieeeeee!"
The voice in cobra's head:
We're fighting a war, here. Don't get so excited...
Cobra: "Oh...yeah...Hey Katt. That's Bug Hunter and his mercs. Tassatul is helping us too. He's heading a band of Protoss. And that..."
*Cobra turns and points to Kal, Who is just a silluette in front of a large, dusk sun*
Cobra: "That's Kal. He's an angel. That means he's a fancy kind of-- And look at this!!"
*Cobra interupts himself right in the middle of his own sentence, and runs over to Kero while pulling some strange mechanical object from his pocket.*

(ooc: I guess we all have our own color schemes when we roleplay, hehehe, thats cool) *The hunters find themselves confused as to what is going on*BugHunter: "eh... Cobra, i see you've found your sword... and uh... you know these strangers?" *Now noticing Kal over by the cliff*BugHunter: "Woa! I've never seen anything like him in all the Tribal catalogs.... Another unkown specie I'll have to report to the Hunting Guild..." "And you, Katt is it? Where the heck did you come from? Matter in fact, where did that angel guy come from? This is highly unorthodox..."  "And where's Tassatul...?" |

"Well my situation is simple enough. The Apocaylpe got a distress signal from a planet near here a little while ago, but we were too busy to check it out at the time. i guess...*looks back at all the wreckage* I guess were a little late... Do you know if there were any civilians here?"
Vale: From the looks of it, the only things here were bugs. And these guys, of course. Im pretty sure that distress signal came from else where.
Trace: Do you guys know if these bugs can travel from planet to planet? because if they can... who knows how many planets they have by now
Kero:*notices cobra running towards him with a metal object* W-what are you going to do!*puts his hands up as if to block whatever wills charging at him for*

(ooc: GREAT JOB CASS!! KEEP IT UP!!)
Kal can barely hear most of the conversation going on below. He's sure that hes been noticed however...simply from the looks of awe.
Usually kal keeps to himslef. After years of getting unwelcome treatment, he has leared to accept the unaccepting humans. This time however...
Lets put on a show.....just to see what these people do. Heck, if I'm gonna be traveling with them they might as well see what I am now.
Kal lets out a low roar/moan, stretches his arms in the air, and then unfolds his wings to full stretch....and awaits the reaction.
(ooc: well....I was facing you guys. You cant see the wings while I'm facing you. You weren't supposed to know I had them yet...oh well)

*watches Cobra charging towards Kero*
BugHunter: "erm...right..."
"There were some scattered towns and villages on this planet, but they're all infested by now. Your people must be from the other side of the universe or else you would have known that this planet has been commissioned by the Hunting Guild to be a hunting ground. My clan is responsible for seeding this planet with the bugs. We hunt them for sport. Unfortunately the bugs seemed to have spread faster and more ferociously than predicted. It might have some connection to our recent encounters with a new race called pop-ups"
*Pulls out a vid-screen to show them a recording of recent battles with pop-ups*
"I dont know if you've encountered these blighters before. And I'm guessing that pop-ups have warp technology. Eitherwise the bugs normally can't travel from planet to planet. I'm sure other groups of hunters are taking care of the problem. The Guild does not let mistakes go unnoticed. But right now i can't contact the guild because my ship is busted. As for the dead bugs you see around you, yea, we had some fun. And i wouldn't know where you got your distress signal. If it was from a town, they're probably dead, if it was from one of our heroes, well, you're gonna have to ask them"

Vale: huh? you mean... boy were we mis-informed. From the ship, it looked like everthing was out of control... and these bugs were actully a threat... so wait a minute what abou the distre...
Trace:*intrupting Vale, not really remembering why we were here in the first place* Wahoo! bughunting, now THIS is my kinda sport! hey, sir? you think we could stay just a little longer?
Katt: ugh, Trace, we have more important things to be doing now. besides, i dont think these guys are going to be hunting again for a little while... they look kinda beat up. *thinks to herself for a minute, then glances at the Cobra's Fang* (to cobra) Heh, looks like you need some repairs, Cobra. Maybe Kero and the rest of the crew could help you fix that hunk o' junk back on the Apocalypse.

Cobra: "Ugh....Don't remind me..." Cobra: "Wait! The Apocolypse is here, Right? We could use it as a base! Bug_Hunter and me could get all fixed up, not to mention tassatuls forces... Heh...We may stand a chance..." Cobra: "Wait! Again! That reminds me, when I was on the Pop-up ship, I got the location to their regional base of operations! Um...I forget it though...um... 167.26 x 425.72 or the other way around...I guess we'll just have to check both." (No-one seems to notice Kal trying to show off... ;D...sigh... The sun's to his back, and all we see is a blur  ) (And just to let you guys know...When I ran at Kero, It's not like I was gonna stab him or something. If you can't tell, my character acts like a little kid. Also, he's a packrat, as in he loves to colect little things. Especial little high-tech gadgets. We'll Kero and him are very good friends, and Kero also loves neat litle gadgets.) |

(ooc:fine with me. ill be arriving in a bit. ive decide to implement a color for easier reading. . .)
*Meanwhile, in the shuttle that picked up Tassatul and Agrithno*
'Wow, what is that huge ship in the middle?' says Tassatul.
*2 doors slide open and C'tal walks in*
'That is a Leviathan, and it officially doesn't exist. In fact, 8 of them don't exist. This ones out on a test run' says C'tal with a grin.
'Its. . its HUGE!' says Tassatul.
'Yah. The deimensions are 50 by 10 by 15. Really big. The ones surrounding them are the new Hand of Adun class carriers.'
[glow=red,2,300]'There have been some improvements since our departure'[/glow] mentions Agrithno.
*The small shuttle docks in the Leviathan's docking bay. The three step out of the shuttle and are warped directly to the bridge of the Leviathan.*
'We're still a long way off from BugHunter.' says Tassatul.
'Don't worry about it. We'll be there in minutes' replies Krath, who was standing on the bridge.
'Engage!'
*There is no lurch forward, no sign of any movement. Yet the view screens have changed to show BugHunter's ship*
'Sir, another large ship is in the viscinity'
'Deploy intercepters and ready weapons' orders Krath.
(ooc: btw, these new ships are from Shroom Man's Protoss at Blizzforums in Starcraft II. Nice.)

Kal re-folds his wings and shrugs.
Huh...must be an intense reunion for them not to notice that. Or maybe there plotting to kill me for money. Eh, its happened before.
Suddendly the air above the field wavers. A sickening kind of "hsooooow" (wooosh backwards) eminates through the air and a HUGE ship is seen floating above the crowd.
A series of doors opens along the sides of the ship and about 40 interceptors, each holding one pilot, emerge from the ship and begin to form into a defensive posture around the mothership.
Oh great. These guys dont look like there here to chat.
Kal suddendly leaps into the air and flyes towards the crowd of allies ahead of him.
"Guys" Resonates the low commanding voice.
"Prepare yourselves..."
Kal puts his right hand under his right wing behind his back and prepares to leap into battle.
(ooc: Kal does not know that it is tassatul..and he's not had a very good day. Tassatul? The interceptors? I did not know how many emerged. I figured about that many. I'll modify the post if you want. Oh and orange/italizied is the color for me thinking. yellow is my or others action and blue is my speech. Thats permanent from now on. I've changed in the last few posts.)
