Niples "knotted hanky"

OOC- Terribly sorry I've added to the disjointed chaos by responding to the
jp which was supposed to be ignored, so just imagine that we ran into the
cave a few hours/minutes before- but then meet up with WW and team later on.
So.....
New Ibiza
After the incident in the cave, and Seymour using his insect repellant
***snip***
Efof and Niples came running up the beach to WW's team, and Efof
shouted, "Boy are we ever glad to see you! You should have seen it,
mountain blew up, and all these ants..."
"Bugs!" corrected Seymour with annoyance.
"Yeah... Bugs came out, and started regur... Um... re-ggrrr..."
"Throwing up!" corrected Seymour again.
"Yeah, kinda like him." Said Efof pointing to White Wolf, "But only
on everyone & everything around. And the people and stuff, well they,
de... Desol.. Um, Got mushy, and then these huge slurped 'em up and
took off, just like they did back on my planet. But, Only that was a
long time ago, and we didn't the neat exploding volcano and smoke
then."
"And may ask why you were shooting the trees? The main attack force
seems to have moved on to the more populated city just south of this
beach..." Asked Seymour.
"Well, Besides ticking off the local tree huggers and nearly killing
two of our crewmates, we were looking for you, Captain!" replied Jay.
"No Jay, I'm not a Captain anymore. I'm an Ambassador for the queen
and he's going to be your Captain now." corrects Niples, pointing to
White Wolf who's licking off a spoonful of peanut butter & bacon
crumbles he found in the emergency food pack.
"You're kidding us, Right?" replies Alota & Jay in unison.
"Hey, I've got to get something back in my stomach! Besides, how can
I help it if I think bacon & peanut butter taste great together...."
Says the huge hamster defensively as he notices all eye's are on him.
"The Queens is going to pull some strings in the Space Core and get
him promoted to Captain, so I can stay aboard as Ambassador...."
Explains Seymour.
"Bugger... The JMC would promote a hamster to Captain, wouldn't they?
What do they think the Blue Dwarf is, the henchman guild?" remarks
Phil.
"Okay, so we've completed our mission of locating Ambassador Niples, what's
our next objective?"
"E.... Eeee.... EEEE." Answered Mp.
"I don't need to know MP-ese to understand that! Let's go find the
local New Ibiza military force, and help them go kick some bug arse."
Ordered the Big Hamster, while walking over and picking up one of the
stray pulse rifles off of one of Cerebrums dead mercenary Marines.
"There's only one teensy weensy problem with that..." Piped up
cerebrum, "The group that I was with, used to be what was left of New
Ibiza's planetary defense force, thier Corporal was hoping we could
steal your shuttle and get off New Ibiza when he saw you coming in
for a landing. And I tried explaining to him how relieable our
shuttles usually were after a Chrylser or Dean Manuver, but he said
he was getting desparate..."
"EEE eeee eee E?" Asked Mini-Phil.
"Yeah, why didn't they head over to the space port, and get a ship
from there?" Asked Jay, suddenly realizing he could understand what
MP was saying, and started hitting himself on the side of his head
with the heel of his hand muttering,"Good god - I hope that's the
side effects kicking in..."
"I suspect, it's because when the Sergeant and three platoons of his
mucho muscled buddies tried doing that they got creamed, *Literally*,
by the bugs that are already over there cobbling together some kind
of spider ship." replied Cerebrum.
"Hmmm, I guess that means we're just gonna have to try our hand at
the stealthy sneak in the back door approach, rather than just going
up and knocking on the front door and asking the bugs politely for a
ship then." Says the huge hamster, "Okay everybody, grab up some of
these weapons, we're gonna need them if we're gonna go nick a ship a
from a bug infested space port..."
***end snip****
Seymour was shoecked by what he heard. "The bugs are making a ship?" He said
to Efof. "That's a sign of intelligence, these bugs are far more cleverer
than we thought!"
"Well they had ships when they came to my planet..." Efof said.
"Indeed, and we've seen the size of those ships before. They're huge. But
these were bugs frozen for a thousand years which means that if we dont stop
them now then they might be able to build more ships and breed more bugs,
build more ships and destroy more planets!"
"But if we do stop them, how do you know there aren't more that weren't
frozen.... that were free and still breeding." Efof felt a cold shivver down
his back. "There might be smegging millions all over the flippin' galaxy
already! this is just a little batch of them that got stuck in a little
snowball!" The ffionian started to whimper.
**snip***
"Wait a minute - Seymour, do you
still have your cell phone and use it to contact the dwarf?"
"um, well, yes and no." replied Niples holding up the melt remains of
his phone, "One of the bugs spit on it."
"Alright then, we can either try an nick someone else's cell phone,
or a ship from the space port. So, which does everyone wanna do?"
Asks the Huge Hamster of the group at large, pausing and then
worriedly glancing at the horizon north of them, "Unless of course,
each of you prefer to just hang around here and find out how useful
our weapons are against whatevers making that loud buzzing sound
coming this way!"
"I don't hear any buzzing..." Says Phil, "I wonder if hamsters have
more sensitive ears than the rest of us?"
"I think I'll take his word for it..." Replies Seymour as he & Efof,
quickly running to follow the overgrown hamster dashing across the
sand on all fours.
Alota points to a two dark shadows darkening the northern horizon,"I
can barely hear something that sounds like one of those biting insect
repellant commercial coming from there."
Jay whips out his pair of Bi-knocks, (Binoculars...) and looks then
quickly says, "Holy Smeg! I don't know whether thier a wierd cross
between mosquitos and wasps or what - but whatever they are, their
about the size of Saint Bernard with four wings!"
***end snip***
Efof covered his eyes with four hands. Seymour held his hand out for a
weapon, now he was an ambassador he didn't carry one around as standard.
What kind of good-will Ambassador would he be then?
Whitewolf handed him a beefy looking plasma weapon. "Why thankyou Captain
Whitewolf." he said.
"No problem Ambassador Niples."
Seymour blasted at an oncoming mosquitto, in fact it looked like a giant
flying ant, similar to the other soldier bugs but like it had been
genetically engineered to fly.
The insect spat some gunk at Seymours and it began dissolving the knotted
hanky he had put on his head. He quickly threw it on the floor, hoping that
his expensive designer 18th century British explorer suit wouldn't get
dissolved too.
"Its not so bad being an Ambassador you know, you get to give new lifeforms
regards from the Queen..." He gave the mosquitto a plasma bolt in the chest,
it collapsed to the ground.
"Tell me Mr. Whitewolf, how does it feel to be Captain?"
<Sory not much creative juices flowing from me I'm afraid, long boring day!>

He went to kiss her, but remembering her recent wave of vomiting, thought
better of it and went to kiss her hand. The first one he went for was
covered in vomit, so he changed his mind and went for the other. That one
was covered in blood.
What a predicament for a gentleman.
