"I'd like to verify that there is no psychic communication," Soren interjected.

Des continued cowering behind the cart, even post-introductions. The giant mech was the last thing he wanted this close to him.
Celene nodded. "Well... it is Stranglethorn. Trolls keep coming until they're dead, or you are... It's not a great vacation spot." She explained. "But I have to admit... you're not exactly what we expected coming down here."
Triberk's locker door finally gave, allowing the engineer to rip it open and get inside. His suit was the first thing out; a relatively old piece of equipment, from when suits still tried to be enhanced clothing, rather than blurring the line between armor and vehicle.
Still, despite its age, Triberk enjoyed that it allowed him to get more 'personal' with his work. He began working it on carefully, retrieving an omnitool and a rivet gun from the locker as well.

"Wait... you think someone was on that crash?" Pray asked, rolling along. "And survived?"

"What is that and where can I get one?" Cori asked as he watched the viking with wide eyes.

"I like death traps." He mumbled still watching the walker. "I think I found my next project."

"Are you sure this is going to work? I really think we need to rethink this plan." Loki said as Richard patched the thor's back plate back together.
"Why? The reasoning is sound. We just replace this power source with a couple magic cores and jump start it." Richard said. "What could go wrong?" He asked.
"Other then the fact we still don't know what this is capable of and we might blow ourselves up." Loki said.
"I said that same thing to you when you built Mr. Wibbles." Richard said. "And now you have a robot of your own."
Loki face palmed at the comment. "You remember what happened the first time we tried to activate him? HE BLEW UP!" He shouted.
"Oh yeah." Richard chuckled. "That was a pretty light show."

"Right, come on." Celene said, pulling Spike along with the cart.
Des flailed as his cover left him, forced to hurry after it.

Pray fought with her wheelchair a moment as she found herself in a more soft section of the massive fungal growth, her wheels refusing to budge from the angle she was at with them. "Stupid mushrooms, let go!" She stated, as if trying to scare the ground into cooperating.

"An assault walker and an air superiority fighter, may I add!" Mickey boomed proudly, having

raise its gatling gun-bearing arms as if flexing them.
"I eagerly await orders, Officer Harvard, sir."
"Looked fortified, too. We could potentially convert it to an outpost," Greg nodded.

Soren nodded. "Right-o. Gents, follow me. 'Tis a short trip, but I don't want any of you getting lost, now do I?"

"A rather bumpy landing, as you can see," Soren supplied as they began walking back to the ship. "A tussle with the Dominion and the Templar wasn't exactly what we had in mind when we set out." He paused, shuddered slightly, then started walking again. "I can only wonder at what happened to those other poor sods. I wouldn't be surprised if we were the only surviving ship. Even a short drop through the atmoshpere can burn the hull off of a ship if not prepared."

"Of course not," the spectre raised his hands defensively. "All I'm saying is, we could save us some bunkers that way.
"Sir, the natives I have seen have a camp across the whirlpool. A rather primitive fort surrounded by a palisade, and some watchtowers. Most of the natives look like terrans, but I saw some suffering from dwarfism - that, or they were bearded children - and others still were rather bizarre in appearance, sir."

"Dominion? Templar?" Celene asked, continuing along and eying the crash. Their mother was going to kill them, but this was totally worth it.
Spike sniffed at the air curiously, glancing around.
William pulled his helmet down, a massive tinted visor covering his face and slowly adjusting to the light level; becoming nearly clear in the darkness of the engineering bay. Nodded, he clipped the omnitool to his belt and reached for the rivet gun.
Gun was a very apt term. It was less of a tool and more of a massive rifle used for blowing nails into the meter-thick hulls of ships and command centers at nearly the speed of sound.

"Thanks." Pray told her sister, watching as they slowly came up onto the hill.
A sudden drop off into a massive scar greeted them. Said scar brought on almost immediate images of the ghostlands; undead shambling along broken and loose ground as they moved with a single mind, a single purpose.
The gunshots were louder now, but slowly becoming sparser, with more time between them.
The marines panted, falling down in their bunker and reloading again. The undead simply didn't stop, and their ammo was running low.
"Command, we really need some relief done here!" One of them radioed in.
"We're doing what we can, just hold the line as long as you can!"
The other marine sighed, lifting his visor and looking at the other man within nearly identical red armor. "Helps not coming, is it?"
"If it is, it will be long after we're dead..." The first marine mumbled.
"How much ammo do you think we've got left?"
"Maybe an hours worth, if they don't send anymore big ones..." The one man replied; recalling the massive beating one of the monsters had taken, dragging chains along the ground and seeming like it would never fall over into the dirt.
Nodding, his ally tossed his helmet to the ground, taking up position and firing again.

"Some other political organizations," Soren explained. "The Dominion is another human organization, where the Templar are aliens known as the Protoss."

"Ready?" Richard asked as he climbed off the walker and grabbed a switch box with a wire leading into the robot.
"Yeah. Give me a sec." Loki said as he started to grab his goggles and put them on.
"Here goes nothing." Richard muttered before pressing the button and there was a silence for a few moments before the lights within the walker lit up. Richard smiled as he started to hear the engines inside starting to run.
"Wow." Loki said stepping forward. "I can't believe it actually worked. It's actually running." He added as he started for the robot to check for any more damage to it's engines.

"And here we are," Soren said, waving to whatever Ghost was stationed at the perimeter (there was bound to be one, and he was pretty sure where they would be stationed) as they passed through. "Nora will be-" he started to say, when he got cut off by a beeping noise. He frowned and pulled a device from his pocket.
"
Notice: Thor Unit 3/B reports unauthorized user,
" a cool, female voice told him.
"Hrmph. Activate Thor Unit 3/B Lockdown, authorization Baldurson," he said, manually typing in another 10 digit code into the screen.
"
Accepted. Unit locking down.
"
"Sorry about that," Soren said, flashing a quick grin as he slid the device back into its webbing. "We've lost some of our toys during our landing. Trying to round them all up has been a pain. So where was I?" He frowned, and then chuckled. "Oh, right. Nora will be pleased to see these supplies. So pleased that she might not gut me on first sight. Can't be too sure, though," he told them as they approached the ship's boarding ramp. "Let's take that wagon in here and get it parceled out ASAP," he said, starting up the ramp into the ship.
Across the way, in a deep crater, Thor unit 3/B powered down. "
Warning, unit locked down. Authorization denied. Please supply authorization code,
" a cool, female voice told the man sitting in it.

Spike began to let out whimpers and whines, fidgiting and attempting to pull away from the cart.
"What's wrong, Spike?" Celene asked the raptor, trying to calm him down. He continued whining however, licking at the blue-haired girl in hopes of release.
Des blinked. "Uh... okay..."
Without waiting any longer, the pink-scaled lizard suddenly took off in the direction of the med bay, coming to a pause outside where the dead basilisk had been deposited.
Celene and Des chased after the raptor, stopping. "Oh, ew!" The girl commented as the raptor moved to bite into the carcas.

Pray blinked, watching with hightened curiousity. She looked from Abby down towards the sea of undeath below them, gulping.

"Is this because I was rough?" Richard said staring to press buttons. "I'm really sorry I didn't buy you a drink first this is my first time with a female robot." He added.
"Is he seriously talking to the robot?" Loki wondered looking up at the cockpit.

"Sir."
The viking cordially stomped several steps away from Harvard before soaring upwards, quickly vanishing into the impossibly blue sky.
Alistair jerked his head upwards, his ears twitching at the wet, slurping chomping sounds coming from the outside.
"The fug?.." he muttered, tilting his head to the side to try and discern just what it was he was hearing.

"You know guys, I think this might work," Frederich said and held up the vial against the bright construction-type lamp providing illumination in the lab after the crash. The blood had turned into a turbid, sickly viridian liquid. "The Booger punch, I call it. Test subjects required!"
