Worst Case Scenario

<snip>
As Jaxx and Eveline listened to Jamie explain his life story to the crew Jaxx had a thought slowly stirring in his vacant mind. Hey Nature dude you must know a lot about the lay of the land and the local hot spots huh?” Jamie looked at Jaxx and nodded as he answered, “Well I like to think so. Why do you ask? Are you looking for something?” Jaxx nodded and said, “Well I was wondering if you met anyone who likes to erase minds with psychedelic darts. I lost mind and I was wunderen if a most righteous nature dude like your self could help this humble fish dude.” The crew stopped and looked at Jaxx like he was off his rocker

“Forget him” Jay said, shooting Jaxx a glare. He pushed forward through the group and held out his hand to Jamie “Jay Chrysler” he said “Listen, we’ve lost a crew-mate, Cassandra, have you seen her?”
Jamie grabbed Jays hand in both of his and shook it violently “yes yes yes! Jay Chrysler! Captain Jay Chrysler! Captain of the Black Wart!”
“Blue Dwarf!”
“That’s what I said! Yes yes! You must have won the battle then? With the Hymenoptera? That was either a court martial or a promotion…”
“Kinda hard to do either when you’re dead…look, it’s a long story, have you seen Cassandra? She’s not really the survivalist type, she might be in trouble”
“You’re the first humans I’ve seen in years. Unless, she’s NOT human? Is she a hamster..like that one?” he pointed at Max.
“That’s my son, he’s human the hamster is behind you.”
“Hello” said White Wolf
“And yes, she’s human…she’s been missing for days, do you know what could have happened to her?”
“If she hasn’t come back to the group by now, then she’s one of three things…would you like a shower?”
“No thank you…what three things?”
“1. Lost…in which case, as she’s not ‘the survivalist type’ she’ll be dead soon if you don’t find her.
2. Dead already”
“And three?”
“Three?”
“You said there were three things.”
“Oh yes! Did I said dead and lost yet?”
“Yes.”
“Right..of course yes, so three then…”
“Which is?”
“Well, theres the worst case scenario, theres a fairly good chance the Haruk have her…which…well, from what I’ve seen she’d rather be lost, or dead…”
“The Haruk?”
“Slavemasters. Dominant life form on this planet, not very smart, but very tough. Big blue guys.”
“We’ve encountered them…” Jay said “If they have her this isn’t going to be easy.”
“No indeed not…” Jamie replied “If you have any sense at all, you’ll steer well clear, your friend is gone”
“So, the sensible option is to avoid them eh?”
“Yes.”
“So where will we find them?”….
