Huzuni, who was hibernating untill now, came into the room. He said "Hello there, uhm, you must be the captain. My name... is Huzuni. Call me Hizi if you want. And... you are?"
Huzuni, whom had no idea of what was going on, walked forward, to keep the conversation and maybe know what was going on.

[Marcus XVI]

Ramia shook her head slightly and leaned her head against her right hand. After a while of pondering she connected the Guardian's communications system with the communication system of the ship and activated it. "McLoyed, I do hope you have a mechanic on board and at least some spare parts. Now if you do how about you send him or her here - preferrably ASAP." Though her tone was polite there was an air of not accepting no - or any delays - for an answer.

[SwarthyBard126]

Artyem was feeling slightly irritated, though it was no fault of the other in habitants of the ship that he had forgotten to close his door before he had gone to sleep, thinking that Jack would close it for him. What he had forgotten was that he hadn't ordered the AI to, who was still pretending to be a basic drone. He was thankful that he had them mind to lock them crate of supplies before his nap. Cursing under his breath, he messaged Jack, "Jack, I'm on my way to them bridge ,follow me." That dine, Artyem walked in his armor, rifle in hand, toward the bridge.

[boomlover]

He looked at Huzuni who arrived at the perfect time.

" seems your finaly starting to wake up. Our mission wich you probably sleapt through is to Find the missing ship valiant. It Will take Atleast half a day to get there so you Should probably Get Some sleep an-" before he could continue he was interupted bye Ramia who asked if they had a mechanic And Some spareparts.

" I have Some good news and Some bad news.
Good news Belle is a mechanic.

Bad news is i dont have any space Parts lying around if you lucky Mabey the valiant Will have Some lying around if we find it." He then looked expectingly at Belle.

" Well you got your punishment go help the ice queen with here suit. Now if Youl excuse me i have to try to get this ship to the gate without crashing." With that he focust his attention on the controls and headed straight for the warp gate.

[SwarthyBard126]

Artyem watched bemusedly as his now captain blew off the mech pilot from his position of leaning on the wall beside the entrance of the bridge. Finding out that Belle was an engineer was of no surprise, and he decided to visit her to discuss possible upgrades to Jack and his armor.

[thesupergamer64]

Huzuni, of wich was wondering what to do, asked "In the meanwhile, what should I do, captain?". As he waited for the answer, he looked outside, wondering what the future held for the crew. Something came along his head... a figure... betraying him, and joining enemy forces... "Who could that have been, and why think of that now?" He pondered. But it was a soon to be weird and bad tought, as he kept analizing his suroundings.

[boomlover]

James thought for a moment and then said." Well there aint alot to be done so uh go have a chat with the rest of the crew or something." He then once again focust on his controls hoping that they would leave him alone for a bit. He then decided to put on a new song and told the crew to get lost if they didnet wanna become deaf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i45qUUI1blA

With that, Huzuni headed to his room and sat down, and looked outside. Admiring the beautifull stars that shinned like a soft light. They filled the sky with pretty patterns and constellations. He then, started meditating, and without even noticing, his blade lifted. And it went up and down with the rhythm of his breathing. It also had a, strong and yet beautifull orange glow arround it. While that was happening, he thought of what he was thinking about some minutes ago. "Who was that figure?" He thought to himself... as he tried his hardest to forget that. But he just coulden't. So he just didn't bother, and kept meditating.

[Marcus XVI]

Ramia was about to give a rather impolite remark, then instead just took a deep breath to calm herself. "Fair enough, Belle, when you have time how about you drop by?" She closed the comm system and slammed her left fist against the side of the cockpit. "I have killed men four times better than him! Who does McLoyed think he is?" The dark haired woman closed her eyes for a brief while - mostly to get her thoughts collected and to calm herself down. "If I still had the Federation he'd be the one working for me and not the other way around."

[thesupergamer64]

Huzuni, from his room heard something, like a brick thrown at a wall with intense force of anger. He stood up and went to check on what happened. He serched arround the ship and to his surprise, saw someone on the end of the cockpit. A woman of whoom he has never spoke to. So, Huzuni went over to her, and asked with a low, calm voice "Hello there, uhm, are you the one who caused the noise? I was meditating so I decided to check who it was. I don't mind if it was you, just asking."

Belle watches as the door of Artyem's room opens, and as Penny shoos quickly and quietly, a smart move from the robot. She blinked, shutting the sense-link to Penny off, before Artyem and his drone walked in. Paying attention to James, Belle decided to treat this as she would a gang back at home, a home she feared to return to. I have to help someone out? Barely a punishment, though orders are orders. "Sir, yes sir." She says, then turns on her heel, beginning to walk off of the bridge, not even casting a glance to anyone else.

When she walked out, she give a high whistle. A few more steps down the corridor, Penny landed on Belle's shoulder. "Hey, hun." Belle says, walking to where Ramia (and now Huzuni) was. "Hey, I'm here to help." Noticing that something had happened, with Ramia looking a little angry, Belle cocks her head. "You okay?" She asks, walking over.

[Marcus XVI]

Ramia glanced at both Huzuni and Belle with a dry little smile on her lips. The last thing she really needed now was conversation, but at least she could get to know the two a bit better. Hastily the dark haired woman leaped out from the Flight Suit's cockpit and adjusted the black trench coat of hers. "Oh I just tested the... durability of the cockpit's frame that's all." She answered Huzuni's question with a little amused smirk before glancing at Belle while the bionic eye switched color to a blue shade. "I'm fine, just a bit vexed and tired due to things that have happened recently. Nothing you should worry about." Ramia turned her back on the two and did her best to seem like she was examining the Flight Suit.

[thesupergamer64]

"Hmm, What was that about? Also, hi there, you must be Belle. How are you doing?" He asked, as he did so, something blinked. That image... back onto his head... but this time, it was starting to make him weirded out. Every single time he saw Belle. He had a bad felling. But, just like last time, tried ignoring it.

[SwarthyBard126]

Seeing Belle alone with the newest addition to their group, Artyem walked over to the nano-suited man and offered his hand. "my name is Artyem, pleasure to meet you." Then, turning to the purple-head he said, "Hey Belle, can you meet me here later? I want to know if you can put some upgrades onto my drone, since it's only a basic production model."

[boomlover]

They where nearing the warp gate. He always liked the way they looked for some strange reason. he then aimed straight for the gate." well that took long enough. with that he enterd the gate. when entering it seemed like the ship was concealed in a giant bubble wich was surounded bye black and nothing else expect a few white flecks who gave the idea of stars. He then stood up heading for his bedroom. Evi be a dear and watch the rest of the crew for me will ya.""of course sir anything else some tea or a massage perhaps."?"well you could just shut up but i think that would be asking to much now would it"?

he grinned and shut the door behind him just hearing Evi say. asshole. He ignored her and lay on his bed watching the stars and he fell to sleep into a horrible nightmare.

[datadogie]

"Right, testing the frame. Gotcha." Belle says, cocking an eyebrow at Ramia. Before she could say anything else, two more members of the crew began to speak to her. "I'm alright." She says in reply to Huzuni, petting her bird before shaking the hand of Artyem. "Yes, I'll be sure to meet you here, sometime soon. First, though, I believe someone called in saying they needed help. Unfortunately, I didn't bring a cargo crate full of scrap metal with me, but I'll see about helping fix that thing up with what I've got. Hey, if we need some metal, there is always Penny." Hearing this comment, the robot bird quickly took off and fled to a doorway, clicking onto the ledge and turning to look at Belle with what would, if she could actually show it, be a glare. Belle knew Penny well enough, and just laughed off the glare. "Baby, I was kidding." She says. The bird lifts it's head like royalty, and Belle rolls her eyes before moving off to grab tools. Moments later, Belle comes back with a toolbelt laden with tools and a single datapad strapped there. She began to get to work on Ramia's flight suit.

[thesupergamer64]

The samurai shacked his hand with Artyem, since he's not so social with people due to how he was raised, and replied with "My name... is Huzuni". He then took a small step back and said "We must be going through the gate... Hmf, if what is after this is peace, then I'm happy. If not, I guess I'll just need to show them what I've been tought. Anyways, I'm going to restart my nano-suit. Who knows what we'll find on the other side?" With that, he headed to his room and did what he said. While doing such, he tought "I think I'm going to have a hard time on the other side... oh well, just more people or creatures who stand in my way..."

[Marcus XVI]

All these people are so different than the one's I've used to working with... Better watch my step just in case... Ramia thought as she smiled very faintly while following the interactions between Belle and her little robot. The Halcyon General had already made her own assumptions about the younger woman - she was at least a capable technician if she really had built that little robot all by herself, also Belle was quite pretty too. The fingers of Ramia's right hand instinctively moved to touch the burn mark on her left cheek and the color of her bionic eye changed to a very pale shade of blue - nearly as cold as her normal eye.

These people don't seem to care about my past - either they simply do not care, or do not know who I wa- am, who I am. Ramia shook her head ever so slightly and glanced at Artyem. There was just something about him... Maybe it was the REMOD rifle, or the overall appearance - the dark haired woman decided it would be best for her to keep her guard up even more when the man was around.

Would they react differently if I told them more about myself? Would they trust me more or less? I doubt anyone of us trusts each other at all... At least I don't trust any of them before... She barely got a good look at Hazuni, but she guessed the fellow was much more than what meets the eye. He seemed like a calm person, maybe one who would either be good at giving orders or receiving them.

Ramia turned her attention back to Belle and tried to sound as friendly as possible - her best wasn't quite the friendliest tone, but at least she didn't sound condescending or impolite. "I don't think that li'll thing would have enough metal in her to even fix the cup holders. Anyways... Uh... Thanks for checking up on the Flight Suit." The dark haired woman sounded a bit like she was having difficulty talking to someone who was equal instead of being beneath her.

[SwarthyBard126]

As the nano suited man walked off mumbling to himself, Artyem quickly became bored and decided to return to his room. Motioning to Jack, he walked back to his room, but before leaving he turned to Belle and said, "Hey Belle, I'd appreciate it if you didn't use your bird to spy on me. Next time you do, I'm accusing you of being a voyeur." Done with his warning, Artyem quickly hurried back to his room.

Locking the door behind him, he began inspecting his ammunition blocks. They were simple blocks of metal that his REMOD rifle would shave off to fire. He had 5 basic block was capable of providing 100 each in rifle form, and 10 in railgun. He also had two blocks of Tungsten blocks for personnel armor and light vehicles. Finally pulling out the final ammo block, Artyem pulled out the block of depleted uranium, which he reserved for tanks and the like. Satisfied, Artyem "ordered" Jack to keep watch as he went to sleep after he placed everything away.
