Half PintWarspite Briefing Room
Feeling slightly embarrased by the whole "Giant Robo-Pteradactyl almost ripping the ships docking arms off" thing, Raekar had remained silent and stoic for this last few minutes, allowing others to speak and come across with their ships capabilities and offerings. Finally, she stood, lowering her hood. She decided to go in her natural Bird Monster form, a show of trust, not hiding her form from them. Plus, shape-shifting was like tensing a nerve, got a bit achy after a while. Plus, General Kenobi didn't seem to be here, no point in showing off for him. "Greetings to all of you. I am afraid that my ships capacity for war in space is somewhat limited, but on the ground, you will find him more than capable of destroying anything that comes his way. My ship is an ancient being named Trypticon from a civilization known as Cybertronians. His capabilities could best be described as... One-Bot-Siege-Machine. I can provide teleportation capacity for any who need it, but the key skill i offer is to anyone with soldiers pure of heart. I can provide powerful weapons, armours and Colossal Assault Vehicles. I cannot give out blueprints, but if you are willing to select crew members from your ships and send them to me, i am willing to provide them with everything they need. But i must stress, my weapons are ONLY for those who are strong of character and morality. Strength of body is irrelevant." She said looking around the room. She was prepared to make Morphers, but she was going to make sure they were used properly "Although my crew compliment is also limited, you will find that each of my Rangers fight with the strength of 100. Right now, they have teleported down to the planet and are performing reconnaissance on these "Replicators" current movements." She said, before sitting back down and listening to the others.
As the subject of potentially destroying key instilations from orbit was brought up, Raekar found herself siding with Tarkin. "Wait, wait, wait, yes, the Admiral is right. Orbital bombardment and potential destruction of a whole planet should probably be the LAST resort, not the first. My Rangers are attempting to learn their motives and movements right now. I suggest, at the VERY least, awaiting their report on the situation before taking a rather rash action."

Planetside, the Rangers were still in their defensive structure. "What's the situation, bro?" Jack whispered to Phil. Phil seemed to snap out of his processing trance as his spike sparked and turned back into a hand, he waved it as if in pain.
"Attempts at communication were... Unsuccessful." He replied. They then heard the scuttling clacking of metal on marble.
"Defensive positions!" Jack ordered in a quiet tone, the magics surrounding them should allow stealth to remain possible... But he had figured without the mechanical element. Seeing a child round the corner and stare at them before giving greetings.
"What the heck? We had no life signs before?" Mele said.
"Can't be a normal kid, otherwise the perception filter would make us invisible to him." Jay pointed out. At this point, Michelle stepped forward, a golden light eminating from her hands as she reached out with her magics to try and get a bead on the kind of spirit the child possessed... Only to find none.
"Definitely some kind of machine." She said, before adopting an aggressive stance, but Kai approached and put his arm on hers to push her out of the aggressive stance
"Maybe at least ATTEMPT communication before trying to beat up a kid?" Kai suggested. He then turned and looked at the kid, taking a few cautious steps towards him. "Hey there." He said, pulling the cloth from his face to reveal his handsome features and horns at the sides of his head. "Mind telling us what you're doing in the middle of a genocidal deathbot infested hell-hole?" Phil, in the meantime was studying the childs movements, the calculating and precise movements of its body. No instinct in anything it did.
"You are a synthetic creature such as myself." Phil stepped forward next to Kai. "Attempts to deceive us of your true nature will be quite futile. Please allow us to facilitate dialogue that we and the Replicators may come to a mutually beneficial end to the current hostilities. We Rangers are defenders of peace and justice. We wish to avoid bloodshed whenever possible." He said to the child.
While the rest of the rangers were attempting to open communications with the Replicators, Asami had slipped a little away from the group, moving upwards to a balcony, drawing her blaster and moving to vantage point to cover the rest of the team in the event that the child attacked. This wouldn't be the first time a monster had taken the form of a child to try and deceive them.
