Futuristic Fate of the Stars of Life (EPISODE 2: Space Piracy)

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Susan then finally made it to the meeting room, this time holding a file. "Hello, crew. Have a seat and be quiet." Susan simply said. Kqidons and Ma'arz did as the captain told and sat down.

 

[BoltBeam]

Bowe and Hamele seated themselves, Kokoro just standing on the sidelines. You know. She can't really take a seat if she can't physically contact them. So instead she stands and watches from the left side of the room.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia snickered when the captian basicly told the to shut up, but took a seat non the less.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Susan then puts the file onto the table and sat down. "I would like your attention, please," Susan said, ordering everyone to pay attention to what she is going to say. "Wrauglo Kacvadua, the dictatress of the Freakazoid race, wants us to go to a search mission to find and rescue legendary Freakazoid Cosmonaut, Ailema Trahrae." Susan then opens up the file and reveals photographed pictures of the cosmonaut; though it only shows her torso and head, and looks vintage, Trahrae has scaly, cyan skin, lighter-brown sclera with blue eyes, and has pink hair with two ponytails. Her spacesuit is red and black and is sporting the Freakazoid flag. "This is the last known photographs of Ailema before her mission to attempt interstellar travel. Though successful in getting funding and resources from the Galactic Alliance before their betrayal, the Cosmonaut was lost in the sea of space."

//Wanna know what the facial appearance of a Freakazoid looks like? Here's a reference!

 

[BoltBeam]

"So she want us to go on man hunt?" Bowe asked, tilting her head and with a confused look. "But they're supposedly lost in the sea of space itself...? This search could take almost forever!" Hamele said, gulping at thought of worse outcomes. "How will we ever find them at all?" She added, worrying a bit. Kokoro facepalms. "Let her continue, she's probably not done." She said, not amused. Not amused in the slightest. "Your concerns are valid, just don't let them blind you."

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

"I understand your concerns, Hamele," Susan said. "But imagine this: your best friend gets lost in a forest. Are you willing to find your friend at any and all costs, no matter how hopeless it seems?"

 

[BoltBeam]

"I-! ...I suppose... then-" Hamele panicked, Kokoro soon cutting in. "Then what makes this situation any different?" She said curiously. "...What if they're already dead?" Hamele worried, shuddering. "Calm down, nurse! Friend will be OK if we find them!" Bowe said, trying to assure Hamele.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

"I agree with Hamele. What's the point of finding someone in a galaxy that is 18 quintillion kilometers big if chances are, we'll only find her dead?" Ma'arz said, trying to defend Hamele's opinion. "Even if Ailema is dead, I will not her lifeless body float around aimlessly in dead space," Susan responded. Sounds like she's quite determined about this operation.

 

[BoltBeam]

"It just seems like a waste to find another dead corpse! We don't have a need for it!" Hamele said. Kokoro just glared at her. "I take offence to that. At least if they're not dead, they'll actually show consistency, right?" She snapped. She's not having any of that anymore. Bowe hid, fearing an argument.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

"The reason why I wanted to take this mission is that the dictatress' people are starting to believe that Ailema is nothing more than a myth," Susan said, trying to maintain her cool. "I'm sure you all probably never took Human history, but up until the 2080s, there were many conspiracies theories about such stupid topics, like if the Anonymous Legion were secretly Communist agents or if the Inferno Syndicate aren't really humans or if we didn't even land on the moon! Due to the Freakazoid's culture being much similar to pre-2080s Earth, they do those same exact things. And now, they start to believe that the first ever Freakazoid to ever went to the stars was nothing more than a test dummy stuffed in a makeshift rocket to trick the Alliance to giving them funds."

Talia studies the picture a bit harder. She leaned back in her chair and saluted to the captian.

“Whatever you say, cap’n. Im not payed to question, just to follow. As the rest of this crew volunteered to do.”

She shoot meaningful (but not hateful or mean) looks at Kokoro and Hamele, before tilting her head to the side and muttering under her breath.

“I think I might’ve been hired to kill that chick a long time ago..... oh well. This is probably why I wasn’t able to.” She said it almost under her breath, before placing her arms behind her head.

 

[BoltBeam]

Bowe growled from her hiding spot. "Just pick something and go! We're either doing it or we're not!" She said, sounding angry. Hamele and Kokoro just shut right up, the former particularly stunned, not sure what to say or do. She's out of words for this situation.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia giggled a little.

“I like this girl. It was Bowe, right? Did we ever formally introduce ourselves?”

 

[BoltBeam]

"...Not to you, no. But yes. Me Bowe." Bowe said to Talia.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia smiled widly.

“Well, Bowe. Nice to meet you. My name is Talia.”

 

[BoltBeam]

Bowe smiled to Talia, cheering up and soon rejoining the others with a smile on her face. Hamele and Kokoro were still frozen. Bowe must have scared them big time.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

Susan sighs. "Alright. We take a vote." Susan proposes. "To anyone who suggests not to take on this mission, raise your hand." Ma'arz raised his hand.

 

[BoltBeam]

Hamele raised her hand, and understandably so. She's still got this frozen, shocked expression on her face, trying to recover.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia kept her hand firmly down, she wasn’t going to say no to someone who wanted to find her friend. She wouldn’t dream of it. If she had a chance of finding her brother and someone told her no.........

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Lux holds his hand halfway up and down. He's neutral about the whole thing. But, he's also wondering about the benefit of expending an extreme amount of resources to find a Freakazoid Cosmonaut in the massive expanses of space.

 

[CaptainRustbolt21]

"For anyone who IS willing to go on this search mission, raise your hand." Susan raises her hand. So does Kqidons.

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Lux raises his hand. He is willing to help.

 

[Meme Machine]

Talia shoot her hand high in the air. Something was itching at her to go on this mission, and her instincts hadn’t proved her wrong yet.

 

[The One-Sided Coin]

Lux looks at Talia. She must have some sort of drive or past experience, that would make her so determined to help a lost stranger. He looks around to see what the others say about going to help the legendary Cosmonaut.

 

[Rcticwolf]

Uhhh....
