=They stay close to the ship=

Do we board them? No. Thats stupid

(The Phantom exits)

*Dante. Tell me*

(The world below them)
(Portions still ablaze)
(Destroyed)
(A tear trickles down)

Reach.

(They begin to go to the planet)
(He marks the area of New Alexandria)
(The Phantom follows orders and moves in)

*ETA four hours*

I want to see everything.
Go back to where my life began and ended.
Ash got to say goodbye. Now it is my turn.

(Lana)
=i kiss him before undressing and getting in the bed=
Goodnight, Pumpkin.

=i smile and fall asleep=


(Dormii)
=i comm Zeru=
Zeru, this isn't working. We need to leave.

=We come out of slipspace=

=I swiftly remove myself from Christina, making sure not to wake her=

=I look out the cockpit window=


Good lord... what is that...?

=Comms Dormii =

Dormii, If you can hear me. I have a plan. What if we destroy the engines. Then focus on the bridge? This pelican has guns. It can do damage.

(The areas he passes)
(Destroyed, Burning)
(He shakes his head)
(He sighs)

(Dormii until specified otherwise)

=comm to Justin=
That could work. Let's try it. Beats doing nothing like right now.

(He leans back in the seat)
(He decides to sleep on the way)
(Music playing)

=Comms back=

Alright. It won't hurt.

@Ward : Go back. Shoot those engines.

=We get close to the ship and open fire=

=i fly along the surface of the ship, shooting at the defense turrets as I go. Some I miss but I destroy or disable more than I don't, but not by much. i reach the engines and assist in disabling them=

Keep firin' at those engines!

=Looks around=

This was the pelican that had our weapons....

=I throw Lance and Rosco their snipers, and getting my Assault rifle=

@Ward : Will this work?

(Ward) : I hope so...

(They begin to approach the waypoint)
(New Alexandria)
(Completely destroyed)
(Many of the buildings still on fire)
(He shakes his head)
(They approach the building)
(His home)
(He sets the Phantom to hover and jumps down)
(He enters)

Tar:

=sitting on his bed starring at the two halves of his helmet=

no more Lapis no more Immer no more Voutan no more Aura no more no more no more


Scythe:

=i put my arms around Lana=

(He takes off his helmet and places it down)
(He looks around)
(Pictures fallen)
(Scorch marks)
(The Bullet Holes)
(He walks into his old room)
(He takes a picture off of his dresser)
(He smiles)
(A group picture of them)
(He takes the picture from the frame and places it into his hardcase)

(Lana)
=i shift my weight under his arms, pressing closer. i fall sound asleep, snoring softly=


(Dormii)
=Justin and I manage to make a section of the engines take enough damage to be shutoff. i comm Zeru=
Zeru, you can do what??

@Dormii : Now get the bridge

@Ward : Attack the bridge. Do as much damage as possible. We are shutting this ship down. Don't get hit either.

@ Rosco & Lance : Watch Senox. Don't let him do anything stupid.

(Dormii until specifi- you get the idea)

=comm to Zeru=
Hold on, let me take a few passes at where their bridge might be. Then I'll come back to the ship.

=comm to Justin=
You go ahead and land again, I'll take care of the bridge.

@Dormii : No. I'll help. I'm not about to abort a mission and let you do it by yourself.

Tar:

why do you all go...

～liebe ist für alle da, nicht für mich.
-Rammstein

=I pick up the radio=

Umm.. hello...? Is anyone there...?



(Christina)

=I wake up to hear him on the Radio=
=I enter the Pilot's cabin and put his hand on my shoulder to look over him=

What... is that..?


(Me)

No idea.

(He enters his parents room)
(The blood still on the walls)
(He sees the footlocker that was home to the AM and Hydra)
(He smiles)

Thank you Dad. For your wisdom and guidance. Thank you Mom. For your nuturing ways

(He heads out the door, grabbing his helmet)

Thank you all. You are always with me

(He heads back to the Phantom and goes up)
(It flies off)

=i comm Justin=
Okay. I'm marking where I think their bridge is, but I'm not sure. It's the best I can find though.

=i put up a waypoint and start another strafing run on it=

Xazhi- This isnt working! Mark, how is the Comet holding up?

Mark- Very good, sir. The sheilds have taken some damage, but nothing signifigant. We had to shut off a few of the engies, because we were actually moving faster than the target.

=They both chuckle=

Xazhi- Well, we're in a bit of a spot here. It doesent look like we're going to be able to get this done. Can you prime the larger cannons?

Mark- Will do sir.

Xazhi- Great. Ill try to get there as soon as possible.

Tar:

=reality hits=

Holy shit... I'm back on the Azure Comet...

.................

And I'm being treated as an honored guest, not a P.O.W.

ironic....

=he breaks out laughing=

=i go out a ways, then maneuver so i am going head on with what I think is the bridge. i fire all of my weapons, i can see I cause a breach, atmosphere and personnel being vacuumed=

=comm to Justin and Zeru=
Yeah! I think I got it!

(He sighs)

Andrea? Did you save the coords of the planet?

*Yes*

Make a jump back there once we get out of here

*Yes*

I will find you, But I need a start

=Mark looks at the screen in front of him, then down to one of the crew on the Bridge=

Mark- Lockdown that area.

Crew1- Already done, sir.

=He stares at the screen for a moment, then back to the crewman=

Mark- Do they even know where the bridge is...?

Crew1- I dont think so sir.

Mark- Well thats good to know...

=Comms to Dormii=

Good. You had all the fun. Also. We found our weapons. When we get back. You can take them/

Code:

Checking location......


...Location: Found



......location: Lost

sending SOS to ONI command

Dr. Nikolaus Oehlberg is M.I.A. in [Unknown location]

Declared: lost in space.

=he stops laughing=

wait... if both Voutan and Xazhi had connections with these guys, why didn't either of them help me when i was locked up!?

=he punches the wall=



Scythe:

=i hear banging coming from Tar's room=

hey! keep it down we're trying to get some sleep!

=comm to Justin=
Hey, you can keep them. You just proved your trust.

=i land back at the Trophaeum. i comm Zeru=
Okay, let's go. Even if the ship is dead, we can't take on the whole crew. We need to leave.

@Dormii : Cool. Now where do we go?

(They break atmo and enter slipspace)

*ETA two hours*

(He sighs)

Fine

=They head to the hanger and head to the transport. It is fired, and needs a few repairs, about 10 minutes worth. Xazhi and one of the others stands guard outside. Lori finds her way to the Hanger=

L- Xazhi! Whats going on?

Tar:

=he hits the wall repetedly=

Am I annoying you!?

=i comm Justin=
I have no idea. Ask Zeru. I'm just making sure none of us get killed.

@Dormii : Yeah. What are you doing on it anyways?

=Flies around. Still shooting at the ship=

Take this you stupid ship

Scythe:

Tar, cut it out! me and Lana are trying to get some sleep!
Go hit a different wall!

David and the team notices that the Doctor is no longer aboard the Trophaeum the get on one of the pelicans, and begin searching for him.

(Lana)
=i stir, but don't wake=

=A soldeir comes into the hanger and fires his rifle. It hits Lori right in the heart from behind. Xazhi yells in anger and removes his helmet. The incomplete armor makes his sheilds cut out. He grabs a firebomb grenade from his belt, and the soldeir shoots it in his hand. It explodes at Xazhi suffers a massive brun on his face and neck. As he is blinded, the soldier takes another shot, which strikes him just above his heart. Xazhi falls to the ground, unconcious. The SS gun down the soldier. They collect Xazhi, his Helmet, and Lori's body. The Transport starts to fire up=

Tar:

=he starts kicking th wall=


Scythe:

i hope she doesn't wake up...

=They head back for Dormii, Unaware of what hes doing. He sees a pelican and passes by it=

What could Dormii be doing?

=I try again=

Hello? Anyone there.. please respond!

=I put down the radio=

If they haven't done anything yet.. the ship is probably empty..

=I walk into the Cargo bay=

I need to sleep.

=I use 3 jumpseats as a small bed=


(Christina)

Okay.. I didn't sleep that much either...

=I try to fit on the jumpseats with him and shut my eyes=

=The transport takes off and heads off to the Comet. Xazhi says weakly=

Fuck... th...em u...up...

=The transport sends a comm to Mark=

=The pelican lands in the ship=

I thought it was destroyed for sure.

(Lana)
=i wake up, slightly. i mumble=
Scythe, what's going on?

=i fall asleep again, on my back=

(Dormii)
=i walk out of the hanger onto the bridge=

=i comm Zeru=
Zeru, we need to go now.

=The ship lands in the Comet's Hanger, and Xazhi and Lori are taken to the medbay. Mark primes the hellfire cannon to fire=
