"I can see you look forward to traveling at those speeds to." Ayla chuckles s she leans against the wall watching him with amusement.
She picks up a a tool and hands it to him.
"So where exactly did you get your paws on a Mark-4, let alone a brand new looking one, anyways?" She asked as she helped him.

"Yee-hah!" Corporal cheers from around the corner. "At last, I'm in the Admiralty! Now to get me a uniform!" The last thing that can be heard are footsteps receding into the distance.

"So where exactly did you get your paws on a Mark-4, let alone a brand new looking one, anyways?" She asked as she helped him. TBCB Anyone Grins sheepishly. "Heh, didn't think anyone was watching me. As for the Mark-4, I made her. Took me a long while, seeing as her parts are a little diffecult to gather, but she eventuly got made." Drake makes a few adjustments on the fittings. "Used to be part of the UAC actully. Never went too far in it, wound up getting injured by a toad raid which cost me half my arm and deep in shell shock. Was given an honorable discharge for my time spent. So I bought this hanger and did what repairs I could." More wrench work. "'Course, once somethings been ingrained in you, you can't help continuing to do it. So I worked on building this engine on my off hours. Most parts are recycled, some I got through higher up connections." TBCB Anyone

"Well, i can see by your actions that you enjoy being able to work on shuttles." Ayla remarks as she watches him.
SHe sighs quietly as Drake's word sound in her ears.
"It is true. ONce you get something trained to you that is serious, you don't forget and you keep up with it." She says quitely as she blinks her silver eyes. "I know that all to well."
She keeps watching Drake work on the engine.

The sound of the wrench being turned for a few minutes fills the deafing silence.
"Hmm, feeling free to share? I'll understand if you don't want to or can't. Some secrets can't really be revealed, so they must remain."
He pauses a moment, digging in the tool box and then pulling out a small soddering iron and opening up the circuits to get those connected to the ship.
"Well, things are just about done here. Soon as I get these wires connected, we can pull out. Unless Damien got other things he needs to take care of first."
Drake sodders some, then pauses and looks back at her.
"Offer still stands, when ever ya feel like sharing, I got an open ear for you to use."

"No secrets, just memories of training on Aldebaran. I can see what Master Jenny feels when she is flying through the strs. I feel truly free as we race through asteriod belts at high speed, dodging Dogstar. Watching those asteriods fly by at extreme speed adn passing a few of them close enough to kick up dust from them. Or when we choose to live up to Damien's last name and rce across the stars chasing comets." She says quietly as she watcehs Drake. "A feeling that will never die down once it starts. Not al of the Assassin training on ALdebaran could stop it."
Her eyes open wide as she realixes what she just said and looks around. She glances back at Drake quickly.
"Don't you dare tell Damien i am talking this sentimental or i will beat you down so fast you will be the first completely bald canine in existence!" SHe warns quickly, as her face blushes.

Grins and winks.
"Your secrets safe with me, once these ears hear somethin, they don't repeat them."
Drake puts the last of the wires into the console and steps back.
"Aww... now anit she a beaut? She's all ready to be fired up as soon as our pilot here feels like turnin her on."

Ayla nods and turns to the cockpit.
"Damien! Get your furry butt in here adn let's get off this rock!" Ayla yells as she walks to the cockpit.
Damien walks in and looks at Drake, "All set i take it? I am tryin to get ahold of Mimi before leaving."
He pulls out a communicator and flips it on.
"Mimi, this is Captian Starrunner, i need to talk with you about a couple of smugglers and what they might be up to. I will be leaving in thirty minutes. I am at teh Hangar right now. Either meet me there or the Bar. It is important as you should know since i am using this communicator. No games this time." Damien says in the communicator and puts it on hi sbelt.
He looks at Drake and sighs, "Lets hope she isn't sore about me getting away." He mutters

With the sudden sound of clicking stiletos echoing from around the corner, the glamourous Mimi LaFleur comes into view, but this time she is not smiling.
"Well, Damien. This had better be good," she growls. "I'm still recovering from that stun-ray."

Damien nods and walks up to her.
"Sorry about the stun. It was a cheap shot.When you have recovered, i will pay you the dinner since you did catch me." He says gently.
He pulls out the chunk of metal that Saul gave him and hands it to Mimi.
"Your better at getting information than i am. What is it exactly and what is it's standings? Two mammals working for Mr. Rahymen want me to do a run to carry double the normal amount that commercial can and do it within the hsorter time of commercial. I am getting the impression they are trying to hide the shipment. What can you tell me?" Damien said as he sat on the steps leading into hi shsuttle.
He waches Mimi quietly.
"Maybe i should have taking the oppurtunity when i had it all those years ago." He thinks why he is waiting.

Examining the chunk of metal carefully, Mimi answers. "From what I can tell, this is a piece of Dalekenium. It's found in large amounts in some abandoned mines on Toxus II."
She then hands the metal back to Damien. "Dalekenium is often used by mercenarys to create a maserproof exoskeleton on their ships, which is why all the Dalekenium mines were shut down, as the Toads were trying to get their hands on it."
OOC: Dalekenium is pronounced "Darl-eck-een-eeum".

Drake glances at the chunk of ore.
"Ooo... what I would give to be able to use that on some parts of this ship. Frell, they basicly need them. Then again, the UAC probbly could usem it better then me, what with thier engineers getting thier paws on all the better new equipment."

"Toxus II, eh?" Damien mutters looking at teh chunk. "Drake, make sure teh masers are fully working. I've heard teh Toads are a tad busy in that sector."
He smiles at Mimi, "How much do you think the UAC would pay for a full shipment of this stuff? It would have to be a decent pay, since i am having to put my crew's neck on the line, but i believe we could sneak in and snag some for them. After all, how many times have i ran a blockade?" as he pats her genlty on the arm. "You think it would be worth it? I know we could use some."

Trying not to look too suspicious, Mimi simply answers. "I reckon the UACSC would pay around-about 1000 simoleons for every ton of Dalekenium supplied, but it may be a little less judging by this budget problem."

"What is with that look Mimi? Don't you trust me?" Damien asked innocently.
He tosses teh chunk into the air and catches it.
"About a 1000 a ton?" Heasks and hits teh side of the shuttle, "THis rust bucket can haul between five and ten tons! Tell yo uwhat, tell the UACSC that i will take 900 a tone, refueling when i get back, adn teh hangar with tools to fix up teh damage getting the stuff."
He pats her on the shoulder and smiles, "Besides, you know i am good for my word. Didn't i step back when you and that wolf started doing business together?" He ask cheerfully.
He quickly pulls Mimi forward and plants a kiss on her lips. he then quickly backs up and playfully covers his face.
"Not in the face!" He yipes and dives for the shuttle, laughing. "Tell them i will be back as soon as possible!"
Ayla watches from inside and shakes her head. She looks at Drake and sighs.
"SHe is either going to kill him or marry him one of these days." Ayla says quietly with a hint of depression in her voice.
