Around the grassy plains of Elicor, Sikes could be seen getting up off the ground of the tall grass, stretching his arms into the air as he yawned abit. He had been resting after a day or regular work around the farm areas nearby. Seeing how he was the only one of the area that actually knew some good combat skills, they kind of turned to him alot to fend off the beasts that came hunting for food. After he stretched abit, Sikes stood onto his feet, dusting himself off abit as he turned to look into the distance at some ruin like structures. Turning to face it, he began to walk in it's direction.

"Eh, might aswell do alittle exploring again there. Not like there is anything else to do in this boring planet." As he headed toward the planet's Drune Ruins, a cool breeze blew as the waves of grass on the plains moved around. One thing for sure, Sikes wasn't expecting today to be any different then other days.

The controls in his hands Shuddered as the ship hit the first layer of Elicor's atmosphere, Adam gritted his teeth, praying to dead gods that he ship makes it down fine. Yes the 'Cat' was a good ship but she still had her quirks, for example the engine deciding to over heat in the middle of a landing was never a good thing. Luckily Kate had been able to fix it before they crashed, 'I need a pilot,' the last Pilot he had hired was always drunk, so last time they landed he threw him out the cargo bay door.

He could see small flames flickering around the main window of the Bridge, Adam reached up and grabbed the mike for the shipwide comm. System, "Just thought I'd Let y'all know we are in for a bumpy landing, so hand on, hopefully we won't loose something," with that he put the mike back in it's holder and turned his attention back to the entry. The 'Cats Eye' made it threw the rough parts of the atmo, he planned on landing her away from anyt towns where the Govermwnt might have agents watching. The twin engines sent up dust at the small ship banked and landed, Adam let out a sigh and leaned back in his seat. "Guess we didn't loose anything.." he muttered. No sooner did he say that did a loud groan sound throughout the ship. He swore and got up from his chair, exiting the Bridge he headed towards the galley, "Drizzet!" he yelled as he moved thru the galley, he passes the engine room, poking his head into the engine room he couldn't see Kate among the mix of pipes, wiring and ductwork, "Kate" he called, looking around, "We got repairs that need to be made, get on it,"

Leaving the Engine room he then headed towards the main Cargo Bay, where the Rest of his crew should have been gathering, "Alright ladies and gents, let's get to work." he said when he saw the group.

(typed from phone... Sorry for mistakes!!)

"Yea, I will right after I Fix the leaking fuel tubes!" Kate yelled as Adam walked off, she wiped her hands on her pants and stood up. They had landed, good, now to do some external work on the hull of the ship. She slipped the wrench she had been holding into her belt, stepping over several rows of pipes she exited the engine room and walked to the Cargo Bay, "A flap mist have come loose and fallen off, I'll weld it back on while you all are out doing whatever, maybe Gid can help.." she crossed her arms over her chest and leaned against a crate.

After the captain's announcement some of the groups started to branch off, working on different things around the ship. Serenity however was reminded on her incapability of some tasks like cooking, engineering, navigating. "I guess I can always just help with some of the cleaning.." She was fairly uncertain on what she was supposed to do in these given situations. Serenity had come aboard the 'Cats Eye' a few months ago, and in that time she had just followed what others asked of her. When events like this occurred she would end up confused and walking around until everything was already finished. This once she at least wanted to do something to help the crew that had been taking care of her.

"Maybe I could go check with Gid and see if he has anything he might need." She smiled, thinking about the Dulrasa. Every time she saw the little guy she felt like giving him a hug as if he was some soft plush toy.

As Sikes was arriving at the entrance area to the Drune Ruins, he suddenly heard a loud rocketing like sound over head. Looking up, he spotted what looked like a large oldish ship coming down from the sky. As it setteled down onto the grass plains not to far away from the ruins, Sikes began to climb afew rumbles of the ruin entrance to get a higher point of view, seeing the ship that had just landed.

"It doesn't look like some military ship. Even if it was, why would those guys even come to this boring place." It was then he noticed the symbol on the side of the ship, letting him know what they were. "Space Pirates!" Thinking abit as to why they would land here, it occurd to him, looking down behind him at the entrance to the Drune Ruins. It was no mistake that they were here for the Ruins. After all, RUins ment treasure in the eyes of people like pirates. He leeped back down to the ground below wondered what to do. "If I stick around, I'll most likely run into them. Then again, I kind of wonder if they'll even get far in there." Coming to a conclusion, he decided to watch things unfold. Seeing what they have come here for as he stays out of sight.

The hulking form of the Solenian moved gracefully through the mess, he'd already been heckling with Gid to cook something familiar to him. Normal food was still foreign, though Gid's cooking was always superb, he'd prefer eating slabs of assiduo flesh, barely cooked. Not that anyone ever knew what creatures he was talking about. As he strode down the separate halls, through automatic doors, he spoke in his mother tongue which sounded like clicks and guttural grumbles. Those that were scrambling around to fix whatever that had happened to the ship, he stumbled a few steps back when the ship decided to shudder under the stress of flying through layers of atmosphere. His bi-pod feet gripped the ships' floors and he set off towards the elevator. He knew that most of the crew would be off repairing parts of the ship (which was reliable most of the time), or waiting around the bridge for commands. Shaking his feline-shaped head, his boney ears twitched slightly when he heard his name being called.

Snuffling at the air, Drizzt could already smell the flickering flames, he turned sharply and cut through the Engine room, noting that Kate was already on her repairs. Or she'd just finished the rest of it. The alien's bright, luminescent eyes caught sight of Adam, Captain of the Cat's Eye and he made short work of catching up to him. Being the formidable pilot that he was, Drizzt wasn't surprised that the landing was successful. “Captain,” Drizzt's throaty voice rumbled as he glanced around at the other crew members gathering around. It was the large, intimidating Solenian's job to keep everyone in check, being the First Mate of the ship, his appearance made it easy. Some of the crew members had wised up to his behaviour and realized he wasn't the brutal, vicious persona he tried to create. Most of the time, he was found grunting orders, star-gazing at the bridge or harassing Gid to cook things for him. His appetite was insatiable.

"Bad boy!"
Ayden's head bobbed to the beat of Scott Brown, an ancient artist from back home. With near infinite knowledge stored within his body finding music was easy. He stared up at the sky, once again longing for a place beyond the clouds. Out of the corner of his eye he noticed it. A meteor? No a ship, or more importantly access to supplies that this planet didn't have to offer. A grin hit his face as he jumped up from his laying position on his roof. Sliding downstairs on the rail he was in the garage in just under a minute. There it sat. He referred to it as a motorcycle, but most around town called it 'a rickety, unstable piece of junk'. Which was probably a far better description considering it was made from bits and pieces of his escape pod and whatever he found lying around. He'd been on Elicor for a year now. He knew exactly where that ship had landed, he'd seen Sikes go in that direction a few times. Giving the throttle a kick, Ayden took off, hoping he could find at the very least a new engine, his bike's was made for quick, one time blasts to get away from an exploding ship, not for continual use like this.

Sync was startled awake by the incessant ringing of his alarm clock, and angrily knocked it off his barrel-like bedstand, successfully breaking it once again. Upon hearing the normal, everyday activity of the crew, the girlish-looking boy yelped and scrambled out of bed, fumbling for his light green, cotton dress which he contentedly wore every day.. despite being of the male species. He was pretty sure none in the crew knew his true identity and merely thought of him as a cute girl with a clumsy streak.. It'd be hell if they ever found him to be a boy.. Let alone a crossdressing boy.

"They'd boot yeh for sure," a voice chuckled darkly, coated with a thick, Irish accent.
"Shut the hell up, Luin! This is for my own protection, yeah? With these looks, I'm better off a girl anyway.."

Luin went completely silent, though Sync growled in response to the waves of hearty laughter resonating from his host spirit within. As the boy struggled with his black tights, Sync managed to make his way to the cabin door and burst into the open, immediately surrounded with the hustle and bustle of the daily chores of a pirate ship.
He smiled brightly, now acting the appropriate part of a spirited, little girl.
Sync made way towards the crowd already forming near Drizzt.. It seemed the ship mechanic had already found broken parts to fix. The boy blended with the crowd perfectly, as he was already a head shorter than most of the crew members. Sync didn't bother pushing his way to the front, though he was curious as to what sort of planet they had landed on.. As most of their destination spots were always unique in some way.
"If yer curious, grow a pair an' ask the big man, will yeh, Lad?" It was not a suggestion, it was a command. At Luin's request, Sync grimaced and pretended not to notice his spirit's impatience.
"Are yeh my host body, or not.. ? Go, Lassie, GO!" Luin growled. Sync did not appreciate being called a "Lass."

Sync shoved his way to the front, enduring many angry shouts of protest. He approached the large bulk and tugged on Drizzt's sleeve, barely caring if he had interrupted any sort of business or not. "Mr. Drizzt, sir.. Is there anything I can help with?" In the end, Sync had chickened out.. He simply did not know how to approach him.

Adam looked at his group, "Sernity you go see what Gib is doing, Kate get working on fixing those panels, the rest of you are with me, these Ruins are large, so they are bound to have something we can find," He nodded to everyone, before hitting the button that opened the large Cargo Bay door. Walking to the edge of the ramp he surveyed the grasslands before him, the sun was shining bright in the sky, not to far from the ship the ruins could be seen.

Leaving the ship the group made it's way across the grassy landscape, they walked till they came to the reminates of what looked like a wall. The weather worn rock had odd markings coverig them. Adam reached out and ran his hand over the marks, after years of searching Ruins like this he still couldn't tell what they read. All he knew was that several of the items fetched a high price with collectors, but the old items were hard to find. "Drizzet you see anything worth while?" Adam asked, knowing his First mate had better eye sight than anyone he knew. While other humans treated his race with disrespect, Adam held him in high regard, Drizzet trusted him and Adam did the same in return.

Gid was currently rifling through the cabinets, taking an inventory of the food. It had been a difficult task for the vertically challenged Dulrasa to take inventory of the top cabinets but he had gotten used to the task for the couple of years he had been aboard the Cat's Eye. He was just finishing the last cabinet when the captain's voice came on the ships comm.

"Just thought I'd Let y'all know we are in for a bumpy landing, so hand on, hopefully we won't lose something"

Luckily the ship seemed to hit the ground just fine. Gid sighed as breath of relief as he started to climb down from the cabinets via his scarf hands before a loud groan filled the ship, startled by the sound Gid accidently lost his focus for his opposable hands. Falling to the ground he made a small thud as his rear end hit the hard ground. Quickly hopping onto his feet he brushed himself and looked around, hoping no one had seen the fall.

Finished with the weekly inventory, Gid pulled himself onto the dining table, reaching for his encyclopaedia he had left on it, he opened it up to a empty page and began to write out what food was needed during the crew's next supply run. He made a side note to collect some specialty foods for first mate Drizzt, he was constantly asking for them.

Finally we get to get off this ship, Kile thought. He had been waiting in that spot for a couple of hours in the cargo room, and his legs creaked when he took his first steps. He grabbed his studying gear; books, paper, pencils, and some small scientific objects he didn't really need but were more for show, and watched as the doors came down and nearly blinded him by the light. After his eyes dilated he was awed at the grassy planes of the planet.

He followed the group as it headed towards the ruins. Soon a wall came up which had odd writings on it, he walked up to it and ran his hand over them. Puzzled by the marks, he pulled out a book about the writings of the Drunes, a book that had only a couple of words that could possibly not even have the right translations. Fumbling through the pages he couldn't find anything that looked like it, "I got nothing on this captain, possibly a warning of some sort as that's what's most common with old ruins and walls outside of the ruins. Documenting it now," he grabbed a pencil and began sketching what he could make out. Being an unknown language even sketching the language took skill, a skill he was oh-so good at. "Go on ahead without me, this could take a while."

Serenity hopped up quickly, giving a quick bow to the captain. A little more excited then normal because the captain allowed her to go see Gib. She walked past captain Adam, and first mate Drizzt in order to go down the halls. She always had an uneasy feeling when she walked near the Solenian, mainly because to her he seemed like a cold figure. Even though he was never one to actually do anything rude, she just had a small fear of him. "G-G-Good day Drizzt." She muttered, hoping to remain on his good side in case of any event. Quickly scurrying off before getting an answer.

Walking through the halls she would have to stop a few times and turn around forgetting which corners lead to where. But somehow she actually did manage to find the correct room. Poking in her head in to gaze around and see Gid on the table writing something. She pulled herself back, turning slightly red at the sight before fully entering the room. "Its not fair Gid! Your so cute no matter how old you get!" She walked across the room, sitting down at the table to watch him. Her eyes growing as she resisted the urge to cradle him in her arms, and squeeze him in a tight hug. "So what are you writing?" She grinned, trying to keep the urge away.

The Solenian towered over most of the crew mates gathered around him, and he stood nearly like a statue, balancing on the heels of his strange-looking feet. His attention was caught at the sight through one of the windows, he could see grassy plains and his heart nearly soared—though most saw him as the hulking, terrifying creature he appeared to be, it didn't mean he was devoid of emotions. A low pleased rattling sound rumbled in his throat as he nodded, his mouth forming a boney smile. He crossed his arms over his chest before nodding his head in directions, sending confused crew mates to their separate duties and watching as they walked off. Everything was running smooth as usual. The ship was the only place where he wasn't scrutinized, the only place where people didn't spit distastefully in his direction. Before he stepped off to follow the group, Drizzt felt a tug at his sleeve and looked down at the feminine looking creature that stood much shorter than he. “You,” the reptilian voice hissed before he nodded his head, sniffling at the air with his snout before craning his neck closer to him, “Come with us, boy... you heal, ah?” English wasn't his best language. He murmured something else about the boy smelling like shrubs and leaves, and did not understand the garbs Sync wore, the only way he could differentiate him from a female or male was by scent. Otherwise, he wouldn't have known.

Nodding his head once more, Drizzt motioned him to follow along, noting Serenity who was excitedly bowing to the captain. Snuffling his own greeting(sounding more like snorting sound), he watched her as she muttered a quiet greeting and hurried off towards the mess. He didn't understand why people tread so lightly around him, but guessed it might have been his face. The girl had an uncanny strength that he respected, and he respected the fact that being of another race, she treated all others the same. On the Cat's Eye, he hadn't suffered much racism, for those who frequently stated their bigotry were kicked off at port or worse. His gaze once more was glued onto the slopping grasslands as he followed the group, which consisted of several aides, Sync, and the Captain. It was beautiful planet, though he was unsure of the ones who inhabited the planet.

Stopping short of the wall, Drizzt made grumbling sounds as he ran his three fingers across the end of some of the marks, eyeing them curiously. Already he was staring off in the distance, they'd landed close to some of the Ruins, but a nearby village could be seen, plumes of smoke rising from sturdy housing. “Warning, yes,” he rumbled, nodding towards Kile, who'd been documenting each trip they'd found ruins, or writings, even small bits of artifacts. Everything they found would be remembered. “In the horizon... a village, two leagues,” he stated, squinting in the sunlight. He tapped lightly on his chest before pointing in the direction where the smoke rose, to those with normal eyesight, it was but a unintelligible speck. “Their home, they would know.” Drunes. Whether or not they knew the secrets of the Drunes, they would understand the ruins on their planet. Perhaps it would bring them closer? They'd already considered that the inhabitants may not be willing to give away their secrets.

Dust was swept into the air as the bike gave an abrupt turn and came to a stop. Powering down the engines, Ayden began a scan of the area. Elicor didn't have many satellites to hack but there was a ghost ship that had been orbiting the area since before Earth had made contact. There were eight heat signatures that were in the massive ruins. An especially large one caught Ayden's attention. The overall body build suggested Solenian, a race that rarely made contact with humans, or other races in general. He stood up and shut down the genetic circuits within his body. The ruins were a place Ayden had avoided since reaching Elicor. They reminded him of his parents a little too much. "Hey! Anybody in there!?" Considering the heat signatures locations the crew of the fallen ship probably hadn't entered the ruins yet. Ayden hoped it stayed that way. His body wasn't up for an Indiana Jones remake.

Kate stood on the cargo ramp for a few minutes, the sun felt warm, and she realized how long it had been since she had been outside on a Planet, the expanse of grassland was interesting to her. Having grown up on a planet dominated by large cities, seeing so much open space was a rarity. She glanced in the direction the group had gone, Kate likes the Drune Ruins, they were interesting, but every time she went in them she felt like someone was watching her, like a ghost. Deciding she needed to get to work she headed back up the ramp and grabbed what she would need to re-place the panel that had fallen off. A few minutes later she stood on top of the ship, a good fifty or so feet off the ground, her her position she had a good view of the Ruins, off to the left of the Ruins she could see the edge of a town.

Clipping her "utility belt" around her waist she then clipped on a carabiner, making sure everything was secure she slowly started walking down the side of the ship, till she came to the section of paneling that was loose, bracing her feet against the metal hull she pulled out a mini propane torch. Her goggles were clipped unto her belt, keeping the torch in one hand she slid the goggles over her eyes. She lit the torch with a flick of a little tool called a sparker, adjusting the flame she then began welding the panel back into place. Normal space faring ships would go to a real repair dock, but Vezander was avoiding major ports, so when something broke, she fixed it herself, not that she minded. It was just nice to have brand new parts, not the same old ones that would eventually fail.

Maybe they would find something in the Ruins, a real treasure, something worth good money. Kate watched as the seam of of the damaged panel slowly began blending back into the rest of the hull, it would be a clean weld. Sparks flew up around her, and she winced as several hit her arms, adding to the small scars that already covered them. It was a few more minutes of her hanging off the side of the ship, holding what many called a hand held bomb before she finished fixing the panel. Turning off the torch, she watched the metal go from a bright yellow, to a dark brown, signaling that it was cool. She removed her goggles, her hand accidentally brushed the still cooling metal causing her to drop the eye wear. "Damn it!" she looked at to where the goggles lay several feet below her, rolling her eyes she looked up at the blue sky. Part of her just wanted to lay out in the tall grass and take a nap, but she had a list of things to do before the Captain got back. Sliding the torch back into its spot on her belt she started climbing down the side of the ship, reaching the ground she unhooked herself, picking up her goggles she put them in her spot on her belt. Now that the panel was fixed she was going to check the two twin engines on each side of the 'Cats Eye', making sure nothing was broken in those, it was common for "space junk" to damage the engines while in flight. Walking along side the ship, her eyes scanned the hull for any more abnormalities, though the 'Cat' was small compared to other ships, she still was large when resting on the ground.

The silence of the grassland was new to her, she was use to hearing the hum of the ship's engine, not complete silence, the only sound being the wind gently moving the tall grass. It was peaceful, not having all the noise, but at the same time it made her nervous. She let her hand run down the metal of the hull, "You seem to be doing fine on the outside..." she said to the ship, Kate stopped walking when she reached one of the engines, "Time to check out your inside," she said as she started her scan.

"Hey! Anybody in there!?"

Adam looked up from the wall he was looking at, the voice came from the other side of the ruins, Adam looked around the wall, several other wall like structures blocked his view of the owner of the voice. His right hand drifted to the pistol on his hip, "It seemed like we have company," he said quietly, he wasn't looking for a fight today, just some artifacts to sell and get some money for himself and crew. Adam slowly made his way further into the Ruins, knowing Drizzt was behind him the whole time, he listened for anymore sounds that would let them know someone was also in the Ruins. It was rare that locals take notice in the old piles of rock, some where just superstitious, or just didn't care.

If they ran into someone, that was fine, if that someone decided to notify the Feds of them being there then Adam would have to deal with that. Through a hole in one of the wall he caught o glimpse of what looked like human teenage boy. Pulling his pistol out, just in case, he crouched next to the wall and watched the boy. Ready to shoot if he tried anything, 'Come on... just turn and leave... nuthin to see here,'. He hoped the boy would just leave, and ignore the ship that had just landed, so his crew could get to work.

"It's not fair Gid! Your so cute no matter how old you get!"

Gid glanced up from his writing to see Serenity walking into the room. He blushed slightly at the comment, though by his races standards he was fairly average looking. Sitting down at the table she continued, "So what are you writing?"

"Just some ideas of what to get on our next food trip, Is there anything in particular you want? I'll be sure to add it to the list." he said smiling . Dulrasas never actually spoke using their mouths, finding that just communicating via telepathy made everything easier. They talked for a couple of minutes while Gid did the final touches on lunch for the crew, putting out different kinds of breads, chesses, meats and condiments for the crew so they could make their own sandwiches.

Finally putting out a giant salad as a side dish, Gid's ears heard the sound of welding outside, Kate must be doing some external work on the Cats Eye. "I'm going to go see if Kate needs some help with repairs, I'll be outside if you need me." Gid said to Serenity as he walked out of the kitchen with his book floating behind him. Realizing that he didnt need his encyclopaedia for the time being, he headed for his room to drop it off.

Putting his encyclopaedia in his special hiding spot in his room. Gid's eyes lit up when he saw the lush grass field while walking into the cargo bay. Quickly rushing outside with his scarf dragging behind him Gid felt a gentle breeze on his fur. It had been a while since he had been outside the ship and the sunshine felt nice on the little guy. Remembering the reason why he came out he ran around the ship to find Kate running a scan on one of the engines. "Hey Kate, do you need some help?" Gid said as he made his way over to her. Kate had been teaching him some basic ship repairs and while he was nowhere near as talented as her, he could still help with repairs from time to time.

Hidden not to far away from the location of the gathered pirate crew, Sikes watched as they examined the first wall of the ruin's entrance. From the looks of things, they were here to search the Drune Ruins after all. It was then that he heard someone call out to them as he looked to see Ayden, a local he knew from around the area, behind the calling. "What is he thinking?! There's no proof they aren't here for more then just treasure!", Sikes thinks to himself as he turned to look back at the crew as one of them reacts to the calling. He noticed several different races mixed in the group as he started to doubt a chance them being regular treasure hunting pirates. "I'll have to take things to my advantage if they're here to cause trouble. Mainly since I don't know what their capable of." He thinks to himself again as he begins to move toward the entrance of the Ruins.

As he took a few steps, using their distraction of Ayden's calling, Sikes quickly makes a dash for the Ruin entrance. His dash caused abit of sound, but he hoped they wouldn't notice sinc they were distracted as he makes his way into the Ruins. Ruins he knew more then anyone on the whole planet, giving him the advantage if things do get bad.

Serenity smiled, trying to think back of any specific foods she might enjoy. "I'm going to go see if Kate needs some help with repairs, I'll be outside if you need me." The voice broke through her thoughts, her eyes following Gid as he got down from the table. "Oh.. Alright, I will try to think up a nice list for you Gid!" She leaned back in the chair, letting it rest on only the back to legs as she looked after Gid. When the Dulrasa disappeared from sight she pushed herself back forward resting her head on the table.

"And again, I am left with nothing to do." She sighed, looking at each of the cabinets, hoping something would be out of place. Then again, Gid was usually pretty good at keeping everything alright in the room. The other crew members were probably busy repairing the ship or heading out to search the area. If there were ruins it would probably be awhile before they took off again to actually leave the planet. "And for the entire time i will be playing it by ear. Wish I knew how to fly the ship or something, that way I could actually feel like a member of the crew." Her voice was rather muffled since she was resting more on her arms, using them as a cushion between her head and the hard table.

Well no shots had been fired so the group was probably just after treasure. They weren't very friendly though. He glanced back at the ship, another scan showed not only had a few of the heat signatures originated from there but various energy sources within in the ship were still on. Running a quick diagnosis revealed that, for the most part, the ship was intact, most the damage was due more to the fact that the equipment was a bit outdated and less to the crash landing. Turning back to the ruins he cupped his hands around his mouth again and yelled "Your ship is like the Frankenstein of space! I give it three months, with regular maintenance before an engine dies mid-travel!" The thing felt like a poor kid with a loving family, sure it was happy but any moment now it was gonna faint from hunger. It was normal for pirates to ignore updating their ship, avoiding it until their ship was smoking, so all things considered this ship probably had a life span closer to 7 months. But Ayden was more than willing to lie a few pirates. Where the hell is Sikes? I coulda sworn he came this way earlier today....

Like a predator who'd been frazzled, the Solenian's bright eyes narrowed into slits and his thick jaw opened for a moment, before he hissed something deep in his chest and closed it. The sound of the younger male echoed against the vast, empty grasslands and his attention was taken for a moment, and he withdrew his hand from the engraved lettering on the stone. Wherever the person was, Drizzt could smell him and it seemed innocent enough—whoever it was, didn't want to be seen directly. “Company, tch.” The hulking figure quaked, cautious of where the voice was coming from. If they weren't careful, their open position could be taken advantage of. They weren't on their territory and they wouldn't know which direction to go (except towards the ship) if they were ambushed. It was his job as the First Mate to analyze each situation and come up with options for each.

Drizzt took a few looming steps forward, where Adam was leaning against the rocky walls of the entrance of the ruins. Whoever was yelling in their direction was a few meters away from the ruins, shouting into another opening, from what he could tell of the echoing sounds bouncing off the walls. He thought he'd heard the pitter-patter of shoes against the ground and knelt down swiftly, placing his hand on the ground before his mouth clamped firmly. “Another boy, Captain,” the Solenian rumbled, sniffing towards the ground before he straightened his broad shoulders, “In the ruins.” For a moment, Drizzt considered the situation and placed his flattened palm on the rocky walls of the ruins. Considerable treasures could be found in the ruins, which could in turn repair the ship, make them all rich. Those were properties pirates took pride in—finding treasure.

The alien's hands grabbed the large double-edged spear he carried strapped to his back and he cocked his head to the side, eyeing the direction that the young boy was in. The one who'd been yelling something about the ship not lasting, he wasn't sure what his intentions were but if it meant getting in the captains way, he would handle it. “Take care of company?” He quarried, gripping his weapon. Honestly, Drizzt would only resort to violence if threatened or if he was ordered to.

Two kids running around the Ruins, 'Great' Adam glanced around the wall to where the boy on the bike stood. When he called his ship frankenstien he frowned. Nodding to Drizzt to stay where he was, Adam quietly made his way along the wall to another opening that would put him behind the boy, and a little to the left. Leaving Drizzt to cover the front, invade the boy happened to have a weapon. He listened as the kid gave the 'Cats Eye' three months to keep flying, basically calling her old.

Raising his gun he aimed it at the boy ad he stepped put from behind the wall, "My Mechanic says she has another decade or two, you care to re-word your statement about my ship?" Adam looked at the kid and raised a brow, the kid insulted his ship. Yes she was older than many, but you don't go around calling a ship old. Especially his. "Me and my crew think she's a mighty fine vessel,"

"Gid!" she called when she say the little guy walking towards her, at only two feet tall, he was hard to see with all the tall grass around, when he asked if he could help she nodded, "Hand me a scraper, it looks like a spatula, only metal," she said as she stood up from where she was crouched inside the large engine. Her pant's already had small grease stains on them, she glanced down at the little scanner she held in her hands, closing the device she slid it into one of the many pockets she had on her person.

She watched Gid dig threw her tool box that she had left on the ground, when he held up the right item she nodded and took it from him, "Got some build up in here," she said as she scrapped off a hunk of what looked like a several burnt marshmallow, leaning down Kate picked up what she had scrapped off, "See," she said stepping to the ground, and kneeling so Gid could get a good look at what she held, "This is what you get when you go threw to many asteroid fields, rock's get caught and make a mess,". Rearing her arm back she tossed the burnt rock away from the ship. "I wonder if they found anything," she said as she looked towards the Ruins, looking down at Gid she shrugged, "Maybe some buried treasure that's worth enough money to buy you a whole set of cook books!"

Ayden's grin from earlier returned to his face. "So the kitty came out to play." The over dramatic villain tone caused Ayden to laugh. "Sorry, now I don't suppose I could convince you to lower the gun? The infection from a bullet grazing me could kill me in a week and keeping a wound clean is such a pain in the ass." Ayden waved his right hand in front of him calling up a panel that only he could see and began typing. To any other he would just look like a crazy. Using facial recognition he managed to get a name and some light info on that captain but it seemed he'd gone off the radar after a certain point in his life, probably around the time he bought the ship. "Adam Vezander. Career criminal no?" Ayden wiped away the panel. "Three months with a good mechanic. Of course my degradation equation is based off military ships but I'm guessing you need both a technician and to replace some of your older parts. Most of your wires have started to fray, your computers need defragged and probably recalibrated. While the framework might hold for another ten years I severely doubt it, you have parts from various years and some of your older ones look ready to fall apart next time your enter an atmosphere. Give me 36 hours and one of your spare engines and I'll give you two decades easy." His grin turned mischievous. "Or you could shoot me and when your ship starts falling apart we'll just call it karma."

Within the Ruins, Sikes began to make his way into it's corridors. The interior was made up of a simple path of different hallways leading to the next room filled with writing and drawings in each room. The structure inside was abit different then the outside as the walls held a strange glowing fluid along a tubing system to illuminate the halls. They were unactivated when Sikes came here the first time, but when he entered a room up ahead, he managed to activate this "system" it had. He still wasn't sure what the liquid was, but it lite the place up and that's all that mattered. But, as he made his way to the "control" room the ruins had, he heard teh sound of something coming around the corner.

"Huh?...did a pirate already go ahead of him?" He thought as he listened to the steps draw closer. As it got closer, another sound could be heard, making him think it wasn't pirates as teh sound of deep growls was heard. As Sikes stood ready for whatever it could be, it stepped from around the corner. A wolf-like beast came around the corner, one of the local creatures as it looked over at Sikes, growling. "It must have wandered in search of food." Or so he thought as yet more came behind it, a total of 5 now growling Sikes down. This grey furred wolf beast were loners, hunting by themselves. "What the? Since when do these things go in packs?"

Not letting Sikes have any time, one lunges at him as Sikes quickly draws his gun firing a blast that erupts in impact on the beast as it launches him back near the others. The sound of the shot echoed through the empty ruins, managing to reach at the entrance. The beast scurries back onto it's feet as the rest join in at moving closer. "Heh, seems these guys are pretty hungery." Returning his blade back to his side, he reaches back and pulls out his katana blades in each hand. The beasts lung at him as Sikes moves around their attacks, dodging them as he counters back slashing each one as they fall to the floor. Once he took care of them, he looked in the direction they came from. "Something's not right." He said to himself as he then walks ahead, deciding to check ahead.
