[indent]"Teret cruiser [i]Excalibur[/i], this is doctor Simon Brewer."

[i]"Doctor, this is Excal, send."[/i]

"Have a bit of a situation here. Masreo Corp soldiers seem to be hunting someone. City's under fire. Had to abandon post at Kalan General."

[i]"Understood. Proceed as per normal."[/i]

"One other thing."

[i]"Go ahead doctor."[/i]

Simon stopped just as the Masreo soldiers retreated from what appeared to be a human male with a stasis capsule in his care. Ahead, a Telth and another human fended off the last of the Corp troopers away from the scene. Without pause, Simon stowed his rifle and lifted the faceplate of his armour as he approached the capsule. Disregarding everything else, he activated the biosign scanners in his palms, knelt down and took to an extended scan of the infant girl beneath the glass and plas-steel.

"I appear to have a young female here too. Hostile Environment Vessel. Approximately...one year of age? Unknown species, will require proper medical scans to verify identity. Does not seem to be of any known species in this sector either. With me are two humans, one Vessegak and one Telth, all male. I am assuming they are the security detail assigned to the female. Broadcasting image capture from optics."

[i]"Understood. Will analyse new information as it comes. Shifting your mission parameters now, doctor. You are to maintain contact with this security detail and assist them wherever needed. If a resupply is required, contact us. We'll see what we can do."[/i]

"Roger, [i]Excalibur[/i]. Will maintain contact."

With that done, he sighed and stood back up, rifle back in his hands.

"Right then, gentlemen. What say we get this young girl somewhere [i]safer[/i] than the middle of a bloody jungle?"
