Subject: The Soldiers walked up the ramp to the small starship.

Starship Inquirer was pretty much a science ship loaded with just about the most recent Rugby technology for observation, studying, research and data synchronization. Various spheres along the right of the ship were loaded with broken down draconian compounds, a rich material but when the right amount of energy was focused through the pieces a chain reaction would occur which would give the ship a tremendous burst of speed. The crystals were pretty much back up power and not expected to be put to much use. Many Rugbian ships had such sort of devices.

Inclusive in the ship was ample sleeping stations with personal data linkups for crew members to have their own private archive of the days events and their crew-members actions. The Soldier, Captain Kyrk oh please forgive me took the main bridge. One of the others sat on weapons and prepped his personal station.

The Inquirer had some weapons. It was equipped with a solar pulse cannon. Known by another name in the past, the cannon boasted immense power by transforming solar energy into a more, direct and dangerous particle. The particles would pulse out, emitting a highly charged radioactive pulse, while tearing through an enemy. The ship was also equiped with some standard Trooper military armour for the Meks...nothing heavy with long range projectile launchers. Mostly pulse rifles, chain cannons, the standard weaponry.

For the scientists and the engineers there was rows of light scout/sniper armour equiped with an energy pack for extra output and standard repair lances. Mostly the suits would be used to boost the power on the tools they would be using on the away mission, and if need be, power an out-of-commision work-station for a few moments. This was a feat that was not possible in the days of Cybertronian rule but Rugby had advanced quickly in technology and the ability to carry that much power on an individual was something that Rugby had mastered. Indeed, most of the Heavy Artillery meks in today's Rugby wore Trooper or Scout armour and were deadly with the speed that they moved. Recent events in the docking bay, attested to their amazing abilities.

The other passengers casually took their places within the ship, picking their rooms while making note on the equipment on the ship either with approval or disapproval.

The Inquirer took off and slowly made it's way outside of Rugby...
