Hessta rolled his eyes again and decided that dealing with a human and...whatever the mechanic was really wasn't worth it. A more than significant part of him wanted to bail on this mission and take down Gortex himself, but once again, his rationality prevailed. It would be suicide to even try on his own and he would just have to learn how to deal with...other creatures. He relaxed slightly and leaned against the side of his ship, letting out an exasperated sigh and spoke, trying to keep his voice as civil as possible.

"Forgive my rudeness, Miss Westwood. I usually work alone, and as such, I am a bit unfamiliar with proper interactions between potential allies. Most, if not all, of the creatures I deal with are either my employers or my targets. If I have offended you, I apologize, and I hope we can work together to bring down our common enemy."

Hessta looked at Six with a raised eyebrow and a pointed smile as he crossed his arms.

Hessta growled at the mechanic's thinly veiled threat and was about to unleash his anger when Six's appearance caused him to turn his head. He rolled his eyes and gritted his fangs, trying very hard not to kill the creatures in front of him.

He jerked a thumb towards the mechanic "This one? Because I don't think she'd be interested in your little 'offer.'" Hessta turned towards the mechanic with a cold glare "Seeing as how she is working for Gortexss."

He put his left hand on the hilt of his scimitar and locked eyes with the mechanic, coiling his muscles to spring at her if she provoked him.

Hessta knew the mechanic was only trying to be polite by making small talk but his glare still hardened. But rather than be confrontational with the woman who could permanently immobilize his ship in about two seconds, he decided to answer her questions with the barest minimum of information.

"Corvais."

Darkstar (Fantasy/Sci-Fi)

Yeah, I've been pretty busy with school as well.

Hessta immediately noticed the mechanic's strange form, in all his travels he had never seen a creature like her and he could tell from her initial expression that she was surprised at his appearance as well. She was obviously female, and Hessta fought the instinctive repulsion that had been bred into his race over centuries as she spoke.

"Good Day, how may I help?"

"The fuel compartment is leaking and the K-3 Drive needss work." He let his accent become a little bit clearer and he jerked his head towards the ship. He slithered away from his ship to give the mechanic room to work, but he made sure to have a clear view of anywhere she might need to be. Hessta's arms were still crossed and he flicked his tongue out to smell the air around the mechanic and get a better idea of what she might be.

Hessta flew around the seedy planet known as Red-6 a few times before a blinking light on his control console caught his attention. He checked the diagnostics and cursed in his reptilian language when he realized that he wasn't going to be able to repair the Shuriken himself like he usually did. He drifted closer to the planet's surface and scanned the area for any kind of repair shop. After a while he settled on one and carefully landed in the loading area. He made sure all of his valuables were carefully hidden and he put his scimitars in his belt, just to be safe. Hessta walked out and slithered towards the office, where he met a strange blob creature. He raised his eyebrow and crossed his arms.

:"My ship needs repairs." Simple, to the point, and a suppressed accent. Just the way Hessta liked to do it.

The blob looked him over with a hint of fear and nodded "What kind of repairs ya need?"

Hessta almost rolled his eyes, but stopped himself "The fuel compartment is leaking, which has caused the K-3 Drive to malfunction."

The blob thing thought for a second and shrugged "That's a pretty decent job, it ain't gonna be cheap."

Hessta's hand went to the pocket he kept his money in. "Fine. How much?" His glare hardened and his other hand hovered over his scimitar.

The blob gulped slightly and did a few calculations. He gulped again and spoke weakly "2000."

Hessta sighed and pulled out the money, tossing it on the desk. "I'll be waiting for the mechanic outside my ship." He turned and slithered back outside, leaning against the side of the Shuriken.

The blob let out a breath and almost yelled over the intercom "Laika! Get out to the loading area, you got a repair!"

Darkstar (Fantasy/Sci-Fi)

Alrighty. Hey Schrad, are you okay with Hessta recruiting Laika or do you want him to just meet her?

Darkstar (Fantasy/Sci-Fi)

Cool. Who wants to meet snakey boy first?

Darkstar (Fantasy/Sci-Fi)

You guys want Hessta to join Six and Midas or head to Red-6 immediately, possibly meeting up with someone else?

Sigh...Well, I guess there's nothing I can do except say this was a lot of fun and I was really looking forward to continuing it. Thanks guys, may we meet again.
