Fang slowly stood up and shook his head to clear it.
"Well, let's go check it then." He said looking at Raven. "The rest set up a perimiter and keep an eye out. Something smells rotten."
HE opened teh air lock and waited for Raven.

Raven scurried towards Fang while Van Owlsing scanned the area for any signs of life with the Blunderbirds' scanners.
"Fang," he warned. "Although we are 75 miles from the Lodge, I can detect somebody outside in the bushes."

Fang nodded and produced a large dagger from in his leather shirt.
"Thanks." He said adn looked at Raven. "Ready?"
Shen stood up and checked on Warren.
"You alright?" He asked looking at her.

Warren just nodded, pulling out her own maser pistol, while Raven operated the pod door, which grinded open below the cockpit.

As soon as there was enough room, Fang slipped out and began scanning the area. After a few moments, he motioned Raven out. Shen was right behind with a long silver sword in his hands.

In the furze, the stranger regarded them carefully, and Warren addressed Shens' attention to the bush where the stranger was hiding.

Shen's nose twitched. His eyes suddenly glowed adn teh bush was ripped out of the ground. Fang spun around expecting an attack.

The stranger stood up in surprise and put his hands in the air. At first glance, he was no more than a human, with brown hair and an unusual cobalt suit with a black undershirt and a matching blue hat with a strange symbol on it. OOC: The symbol

Fang looked at teh guy and then at Raven.
"Go ahead and check the booster. WE'll deal with this." He said getnly to Raven.
Shen stepped forward.
"Name and reason for sneaking in the bushes." He growled.

This close, the two toad fighters could track the ship by its vapour trail. They decelerated as they came flew over the crash site.
"Sara to Sijinco. Definitely a craft. Don't recognise the design. Orders?"
"Try to make contact on Imperial frequencies. If you don't get a response, strafe the area."
"Aye sir."
She turned to Walter.
"Bring us around."
The fighter banked with a warbling sound.
"This is Squadron Sijinco of the Imperial Toad Navy to damaged craft. Identify yourself."

Raven pulled out a toolbox from the cockpit of Blunderbird 2 and set to work. Unfortunately, the radio had been smashed on impact.
"I'm Major Cobalt, Spectrum," the man stepped forward and presented his pass, which revealed a photo of himself surrounded by a cobalt frame, along with the note:
THIS PASS GIVES MAJOR COBALT TOP-SECURITY ACCESS TO ANY SPECTRUM INSTALLATION. ANY SUBORDINATES ARE TO HELP HIM IN ANY WAY HE SEEMS FIT TO COMMAND.
COLONEL WHITE
"What are you doing here?" Cobalt inquired.

"We live in this universe." Fang muttered adn turn to leave. "Whatever this Spectrum, never heard of it. So i am guessing you are out of place."
He walked back to the booster to help Raven. Shen looked at him and then turned back to the human.
"You have to excuse him. Has a lot on his mind. Now we read the note, but I have not heard of Spectrum and you do seem a little out of place. Why are you here?" Shen asked patiently. "You don't look like an Aniversian to me."

"Oh, is that what this place is called?" Cobalt chuckled, surprised. "Well, I was told by Spectrum to track a renegade spacecraft called Fireball XL6. The World Security Council believed it to be guilty of sabotage, but I have my doubts,"
"It's pilot was some guy called Sublieutenant Norris. English creep who fought in the Third Cosmos War. He was due to be fired the day before he went rogue. After putting a bounty on his head, I was sent to bring him back. Unfortunately, some weird craft with these Toad things in them shot me down, and I've been here for about two months,"
He pulled out a photograph of Rear-Admiral Corporal in a pale-yellow suit with absurdly-large red lapels. "This is the guy," Cobalt remarked. "Seen him?"

"Doesn't seem like they want to talk. Too bad."
Sara turned off the comm.
"I'm plotting firing solutions. Even if we miss them, the plasma should turn the forest into a bonfire."

Shen quickly placed a hand over the picture to hide it from Fang and Raven's veiw.
"XL6 is destroyed and the pilot is dead." He whipsered loud enough for Cobalt to hear.
Fang joined Raven at teh booster.
"How bad is it and do you need a hand?" He asked gently.
