The few cabins that Sijinco and Tannan flew over were empty. Either they had seen the Toads coming, or it was off-season. Sijinco, however, was finding it hard to concentrate on the task at hand. Who in their right mind would want to live on a world covered in greenery? The comm chimed. It was Margery.
"Boss, we've found them. Adder's ship and a bunch of mammals, a quarter rotation north of your position. They are inside a building the recon map says its some sort of medical centre."
Taking cover in a hospital?
"All squadron, converge on Margery's position. Margery, maintain altitude. Try not to get spotted from the ground. Anyone tries to leave, shoot them down."
Sijinco turned the Bubble northwards.

Starfire nodded, and got up to get dressed.
"Well..." Adder began, but then, recognizing the droning of Double-Bubbles overhead, looked outside and noticed an attack squad overhead.
Running away from the centre, alone, Adder ran into the forests, until he was confronted by a large blue box.
Not taking time to read the signs placed around it, Adder ran through the unlocked door, and into a large hexagonal room with a console in the middle of it.

Ktonos heard teh noise and saw Adder run out. He looked over at StarFIre as he scooped up TearFIre. He gently took StarFire's arm.
"Bive me a safe location." HE said as he looked at the door. "Is Genus good, maybe your old apartment?"

"Genus," answered Starfire. "That is the only place we can go."
The Doctor, meanwhile, had also seen the commotion and ran towards the blue box, fearing that the craft may be hostile.

Ktonos nodded adn held TearFIre as StarFire got dressed.
"I will have to teleport you and TearFIre to Genus. It will tire me a little, but it will get all three of us there." KTonos explained calmly as eh held the baby.

"What about you?" asked Starfire nervously.

Starfire nodded and waited for the spell to be cast.
Elsewhere, the Doctor had fiddled with the console, unaware that Adder was hiding nearby, and with an echoing woosh, the box disappeared.
OOC: There, the Doctors' gone! Happy now?

Ktonos gently placed TearFire in StarFire's arms adn took them both in his arms. He getnly kissed StarFire's forehead adn a carving on his forehead glowed brightly all of a sudden. A bright flash of light and the young family was gone.

A few minutes later Sijinco was standing outside the lodge, looking perplexed at the story her subordinates were telling her.
"Lemme get this straight. You are sure that you were in low orbit, but the only way someone on the ground could have detected you is if they could have seen you. Which they couldn't have. And, though the guest book clearly lists Admiral Starfire of the SPACE as being in residence, she somehow managed to leave without the use of a ship?"
The squad shuffled their feet nervously.
"That's about the size of it boss."
"Please tell me we at least got Adder?"
"Urm. No boss."
"He didn't disappear as well, I suppose?"
"He exited the building and ran into the forest. He got into a... a sort-of-a blue… cabinet... thing…"
"Which then disappeared?"
"Um. Yes."
"Okay! Okay. That's just great. I'm going to go and comm whoever is in charge of the Warren invasion force and, trying not to sound like a complete idiot, ask for a Toad science survey team to find out what the hell just happened. Search the premises while I'm gone, will you? I'm hoping that the tour operators don't share the higher-ups magical disappearing skills. Maybe this won't have been a complete waste of time if we can hand them over to Industrial Labour."

"Toxus One to Sijinco, report."
Sijinco winced as she heard Chesters voice coming from her Double Bubbles hypercom. She walked over.
"Having a... a spot of bother, sir. Adder has, um, disappeared. Literally into thin air. I'm sending you the footage from the camera of Marrik's ship. The head of the Warren invasion force has said that he'll send over a Science team when he can."

Examining the computers, Raven examined the damage.
"One of the boosters have failed," she muttered. "I'd have to check it over with my own eyes to assess how bad it is."
Meanwhile, in the furze, a figure in a tattered blue suit was watching curiously.

Squadron Leader Sijinco leaned back against her Double Bubble, watching the scientists set up their equipment. There wasn't really anything for her squadron to do except wait and report back to Chesters if the experts found anything. The building-by-building search had turned up fourteen terrified medical staff, but no holidaymakers. Industrial Labour would still take them, of course. She had Margery and Walter flying combat patrol, and Conrad was fixing his damaged ship.
The scientists were setting up some sort of high powered scanner array. Luckily the hospital provided the perfect site; good location and its own generator. One of them walked past her on the way to pick things up from their ship.
"Quantum flux on an unprecedented scale! You don't know how exciting it is!"
She grimaced.
"You're not wrong."
Her comm chimed. She climbed into the pilot seat and answered. It was Sara, Walter's gunner.
"Squadron Leader. We think that we detected a ship coming fast through the atmosphere."
"You think?"
"It could have been an asteroid. Or debris. It went straight down on the far side of the moon."
"Check it out. Carefully. It its a U.A.C. frigate fall back at once, you hear?"
"We're on it sir."
