Hidden Cargo

[The Pirate]

With most systems back online, the crew had a much easier time moving about the Harbinger. Team 3 was no longer pinned down by the auto-turrets and was making its way to the last known position of Team 4.

Team 3: Team 3 to Bridge, were at the last known location of Team 4. Its a sh*t hole down here. Looks like the Nomads jumped in from a ventilation conduit above. Jasper and Learson are dead, killed each other in a crossfire F**king idiots theres no sign of Renolds and one of the Nomads is dead.

Twilight: How large? We had 3 smaller Nomads in those NCUs, but the last one was one of their warriors.

Team 3: Its a smaller one, sir.

Twilight: Ok, search the immediate area it cannot have gone far. That one wont be able to take someone as a host but it can do some nasty things to ya if it grabs hold. It also has the ability to control some simple electronics. Im coming down with reinforcements.

Team 3: HOLY SH*T... <sounds of disgust in the background> agh, we found Renolds, sir hes f**king ripped in two!!!

Twilight: Team 3, stay put, well come to you. Team 1 report to the Bridge. Team 2 rendezvous with Team 3.

All Teams: Yes, sir!!!

Twilight made his way Team 3s location, a short distance from the docking bay. Team 2 had just arrived.

Twilight (whispering): Ok, our friend knows hes outnumbered and without his little buddies will have a hard time taking over the ship. Hell make his way to the docking bay and try to take the fighter there. Hes not going to be able to go anywhere, so I want this sucker alive. Team 2, swing around and come in from the other side of the bay, wait for my signal. No one is to open fire unless I give the order, understood?

Teams: Yes, sir.

Once in position, the two teams waited for Twilights order. Gesturing with his hand, they moved in.

The only fighter in the bay was Twilights Sabre, the Nomad was inside trying to power up the engines but failing miserably. The fighter had been adjusted to respond to only Twilights unique brainwave patterns.

Twilight: NOMAD come out its over.

The Nomad emerged from the back of the ship it looked similar to the smaller Nomads but the tentacles were a lot more muscular, and the body substantially larger. Three tentacles held its body off the floor, while two others were like arms with small razor-sharp blades on the inside and outside edges. It stood and glared directly at Twilight.

Nomad (telepathy): Let me go, you pitiful humans cant kill me.

Twilight (telepathy back): See, there you are wrong.

The Nomad fell back slightly in shock, now sensing Twilights hybrid powers. Fear gripped it, and like a caged animal caught in a corner, it lashed out.

Using its three tentacles like a spring it leapt directly towards Twilight, catching everyone except him off guard. Twilight, having sensed the growing fear in the creature, created a very powerful energy barrier at the last second that deflected the Nomad up over his head and hard into a pile of creates in the far corner of the bay. Stunned, the Nomad attempted to regain its composure, but before it could even right itself, Twilight created a small ball of energy that he fired at the creature.

The energy dissipated through-out the creatures body knocking it unconscious.

Twilight, drained from the experience, placed his hands on his knees and drew in some deep breathes.

Twilight (breathing deeply): Remove that things tentacles... take it to my research lab once there... place its body on the table with the localized, suspension field.

The teams gave a rather nervous yes, sir and left the bay with the creature.

Twilight, having now regained most of his strength, moved to a nearby intercom.

Twilight: Bridge send a message to Firebird informing him about the incident with the NCUs... something doesnt feel right about this whole affair I want him to take a look at those units.

Bridge: Aye, sir.
