"Why this, Tina, is the means of our departure," he replied, smiling behind his mask. He just knew what came next would shock her. Reaching into his belt with his free hand, he produced a device resembling a tv remote. "Observe"
Pressing a button on the remote, the machienry began to shimmer and ripple, until instead of the machinery, there was a ship in its place. A sleek, aerodynamic, black ship, with an unmistakable logo and motif. It was a toad ship. Pressing another button, a door opened up on the side of it.
"After you, Tina. I'll get rid of the detonator once your inside the brig. And then, its off to Komplex with you."

Tina crossed her arms adamantly, but she couldn't help but whistle at the ship. A Stealthship? Those were only things talked about in science fiction novels...
"Dismantle it first, then I'll get on the ship. It's not like I can go anywhere else right now or try to escape at this point in time."

Without saying a word, he crushed the detonator in the palm of his hand. The bomb was now rendered useless.
"Now move it."

"Okay, okay, don't be so pushy..."
At that, Tina walked into the ship, past Justin --- as promised, hence fulfilling her end of the bargain --- and the first thing she noticed as she walked into the sleek Stealthship was its controls...and as she saw the single pilots' seat and control panels, the first thing that she noticed was that some of its controls were very similar to those of the prototype Mecha Frame's that Tina had been brought to the Aniverse with; there was no pivoting left balance controller, but the right flight stick had much of the same triggers. And one of the levers in front, off to the left side of the seat, had to be the throttle.
Tina suddenly had an idea and, while it wouldn't keep Justin off her back, it would at least give her a fighting chance --- and draw him away from the station far enough for Shirley to do something to help her.
All of a sudden, while Justin was just about to get onto the ship as well, Tina leapt for the controls, diving and landing on the seat, and hit the throttle stick with everything she got. The engines suddenly flared up with a start and the ship began lurching forward a bit without Justin as Tina grabbed the flight stick and began moving it around in any and all directions, trying to generate enough noise and crashes for someone, anyone, to finally notice.
"Come on, Shirley, hurry up and save my butt..." Tina muttered as the ship began to move, and she began steering the Stealthship out of the base. There's got to be some way Justin steered the Stealthship into the station in the first place, after all...
TBCB Justin and/or Shirley at Orwell Station
(Basically, Carnate, I can't make it too easy for you ^_^ Justin still has a very good chance of boarding the Stealthship after Tina --- Tina hadn't closed the hatch. XD But we really should continue this elsewhere, seeing as we're all way out of the Holding Cells by now...)

ooc: Not sure really to continue the traitor storyline, so I thought I'd move it here, least for the moment.
IC: With all the grace and dignity that had been ingrained in him from his training, Commander Daemon Nightstar slowly walked foreward as he was lead to the holding cells.
When the guard opens the cell he walks in and take a seat on the bench in one of the cells and leans back waiting.
"Well, I seen my fair share of Toadies and Sleazesaurs inside these cages, but this is the first time I been placed in one meself."
He sighs and glances at one of the guards.
"Hey, how long till we're able ta clean up some? I don't mind bein' dirty, but wet and slimy makes my fur really crawl and this slave jumper really anit the fashion statment of the year."

As Wilson drives the train towards teh Holding Cells, Shar sits by Wendy in the car adn watches Emily. They ride in silence for a while.
"So why did you do it?" Shar asks finally with a depressed sigh. "Why would a feline join up with the toads?"
He leans forward slightly while waiting to her reasons.
"Poor Wendy must be extremely upset with this. Her best friend joing up with the toads." He thinks why waiting.

Emily says nothing, and just looks away as though she doesn't care.
"Emily, why did you do it? I thought we were the best of friends." Wendy asks, trying not to cry. But then, Emily winces and groans, before collapsing to the floor. Wendy examines her friend, and finds a small electronic chip attached under Emily's ear. On it is the Toad skull-and-crossbones. Wendy screams in shock when it all comes to her, Emily was no traitor, she was a puppet on a string.

Shar quickly pulls Wendy back adn feels for a pulse. He finds a weak one. He yanks the door open and sticks his head out.
"WIlson!! Put on the brakes and get your tail back here!! We ahve a problem!!" He yells and pulls back in.
Shar's eye focuses on the chip and it zooms in, studying it in great detail adn committing it to memory. He kneels down and gently rolls her onto her back.
"Well, kitten. What have you gotten yourself into?" He says quietly as he begins doing a quick feild check of various vitals.

Renfield waits at the other end of the tracks outside the cell block, flanked by a couple of armed bodyguards, having learned that they were already in transit, and it took a great deal of running on his part to ensure he would get there ahead of them, his plan being to take custody of Emily the minute they get off the train. And with Admiral Blade nowhere in sight, and him being a member of the Security Council, Renfield had no doubts he could this off. He couldn't let them execute Emily, as he just knew they would.

The train suddenly shrieks to a halt, and Wilson trots toward the open carriage.
"What the devil is all..." he notices Wendy unconcious on the floor, and then sees the Toad chip. "Sweet mother of God," he murmurs, and sticks his head out in the direction of the caboose. "Private Stanier! Get the first-aid kit! We've got a problem!"
A few seconds later, a spindly female hare walks up and feels the pulse before putting Wendy into the recovery position. "How did this happen?" she asks, looking up at Emily and Shar.

"NOt sure exactly. She was sitting there looking off to teh side like she didn't care and then she groaned and fell over. Wendy leaned forward to check on her and spotted the chip." Shar said. "After which i called for Wilson and checekd her vitals."
He looked around adn his eyes narrow.
"I don't believe there was anything nearby, but i had asked her a question and was waiting for an answer, so if we did pass something, i might have missed it.." He says and looks at Wendy. "DId you see anything?"

Wendy shakes her head, and then Wilson looks up.
"I was in the engine the whole time, lad," he coughs. "The only landmark we did pass was an exposed pipeline leading up to the Admiralty."
Emily groans slightly and wakes up, before looking pale-faced. "He's here! He's on Genus!" she screams, but Charlene calms Emily down and places a blanket over her.

Shar looks at her and gently kneels beside her, on the opposite side of the Private.
"Miss. Emily? What is it? Is someone after you?" He asks gently. "My name is Shar. I am a specialist from Atlantis. What or who is here?"
He quietly waits for her to answer and glances back down the tracks towards teh pipe.

Emily regains composure, and begins to speak with a slight stutter.
"U...under the Admiralty is... a b...baboon with a goldmine of machinery. H...he found me, and he...he strapped me to a table. He said something about neuro-control or something. The rest is a blank."

Renfield's frowned deepened, and he checked his watch. "It shouldn't be taking them this just to traverse the bloody train tunnels," he muttered.
One of the bodyguards took out a walkie-talkie and inquired with a colleague regarding the whereabouts of the train. After a moment he said to Renfield, "The train has stopped on the tracks, sir. They don't know why. I've requested they send someone down there."
"That's okay, Stavros," Renfield said, stroking his chin. "You and Englund come with me. We'll go down there and have a look for ourselves." With that, Renfield hopped off the train platform and onto the tracks, got a flashlight and walked towards the tunnel.
Stavros and Englund, the bodyguards, looked nervously at one another before grabbing flashlights of their own and hopping down after their superior.
