As they walked, he could see his distorted reflection on the black armour before him. Strange that such surface could be so strong. He still couldn't understand how the nuke didn't do any damage when it had gone off in that strange shell.

As they walked towards the black ship, his soldiers saluted him. CO Hamm nodded and gave a crisp salute as well. One of his optics winked a warning...if anything went wrong the soldiers would be ready. Steele activated his comlink to make sure that the soldiers outside heard everything that was going on inside of the strange craft.

A hole opened in the black craft, white and pink light throbbing from deep within. The hole expanded and a ramp extended from it as if it were a black tongue lolling out of a widening black toothless maw. The figure before him did not even halt in his stride towards the mouth as he met the descending ramp at midstride immediately making his way into the ships interior.

Steele made sure to place himself before the doctor as they made their way up the alien ramp. As they passed into the pulsating light he could see black ribbing forming the entrance by which he passed under. The ribbing reached into the recesses of the alien craft and he could tell that there were many other sections in this smallish vehicle. You couldn't fit mechs in here for an assault mission. This was probably a two person craft...although it could accomodate his size for some time.

Before him the individual in black stopped and stood still, the black fluid oozing off his body and being sucked into the very walls of the ship around them. Steele couldn't see any technology on the walls or areas about him. On a chair (if that's what it could be called) sat the little girl...the missing person...Ali McCormick. She smiled as the fluid oozed completely off of the individual before them.

He smiled and coughed to clear his throat. The man shook his head as he stared blankly at them and rubbed his neck. He smiled apologetically and said in a hoarse voice "My name is Lost_1ne"

"And I am Saber_1ne"Said the very air about them.

"Welcome"

"DOCTAH REED!"

The little girl ran over to the doctor and hugged her while giggling.

Lost One? What did that mean? Saber One...who did the voice belong to? CO Steele couldn't do anything but watch how the conversations would transpire...
