Parallax- Chapter 12

"What could that thing be... Yeah, let's go." *Sets off toward the object*

((I g2g soon. Sleeeeppp ))

((Yep, my bad))
*picks up his gun*
"That was, odd... I have a feeling we're not very welcome."

Three Naga came from near the bunker. The one in the middle had gray robes, with the hood almost covering her face, while the other two had some sort of armor, and were holding miniguns...

"Why is it you are here?" the robed one asked.

*John takes the firefox over finding the group out of sheer dumb luck and landed nearby, hopped out and locked it up*
geez guys try to do something without getting guns pointed at you for once
((hey! you left me behind))

"I blame this guy," Naomi pointed to Francis.

"To, uhh, bring you into our commonwealth?" Francis said.

((You brought Shali right? Lol))

*He holds his hands in the air until spoting the firefox*

"Not... Helping... Right... NOW, John!"

*His eyes drift to Francis*

"Francis? Care to explain things BETTER to our armed and scaly friends?"

"Well, uhh, you've seen how you're limited on what technology you have, and your territory too. So, uh, if you want, I was hoping we could, like, unite or something. You know, we share technology, and help you get to other parts of the planet, and you could help us too, or something. Right?"

((you may need to raise the threat level of this world squird and I can't really think of anything anyone of us can really add to that))

"Idiots..." the Elder said, before leaving...

"So...?" Naomi asked.

"Looks like we tried, and failed..." Francis said, getting back into the plane.

*walks over to the plane and stands near the door* maybe we should look into the possibility of their being a proper procedure, I mean you went halfway across a planet and that was all you could think of?

"Well, I had a plan. But that was lost once they brought those guns..."

"Idiot..." Naomi rubbed her forehead...

" Maybe you should've brought offerings, genius. I'm no diplomat, but I know peace comes with a price. "

((Read every word in all the posts... The one in the center, the Elder, is GONE. In fact, the guards would be too, because they have to guard the Elder... So...))

"Let's just check out that base before we leave. Okay?" Naomi said, as Francis's plane lifted off...

((Sorry, got to make a habit of that...^^;))

*Melchior shrugs*

"Alright, maybe there'll be some loot there to make up for not getting that 10 million..."

"Maybe..." she walked through the bulkheads, "Looks like these were blown open by something..."

"Maybe a raid or something." walking through aswell

"Looks like it."

Blaster burns, and bullet holes lined the walls as the walked deeper into the abandoned base...

*Looks around interior, trying to find something to make it brighter*

There was a flickering light in the distance...

*seeing the light* "Huh... Naomi, what do you suppose that could be?" He asked, pointing

"Kinda looks like a Mr Handy..."

"You think? Let's check it out." he exclaimed, increasing in pace

Just as Naomi thought, there was a battered Mr. Handy driving around in a small area...

"Heh... Guess you were right." He slowly approached the machine, "... He looks like he's pretty messed up."

As he approached, the droid sped off, smashing into a wall... After it's crash a distant thunping could be heard, getting closer...
