| ...and the specimen's escape was aided by two defectors-- Doctor Blaise, and a grunt named Glard Gorpnan! |
| HahyahyaHAHAHAHAAAAHAAA!! |
| How does this keep happening!? |
| You sure run a tight ship, don't you, Ribbsy? Kyehehahahahaha! |
You shut up!
The hijackers-- where have they gone? |
I don't yet know, General!
We lost them when they entered hyperspace. |
I-- I can run a trace!
It should only take a minute-- less, even-- |
Seriously, an egghead and a grunt?
If it was a Leviathan gone rogue, I'd get it, but you can't even keep a handle on the dorks! |
Do you have anything useful to contribute here, Squarck?
Or are you content to make a mockery of your responsibilities as per usual? |
HAH! I'll come clean-- I don't actually care about this, Ribbsy, I just think it's funny to keep you humble.
Loosen up for once, wouldja! |
I will not "loosen up"!
This incident represents a major breach in our security. We cannot allow those responsible to slip our grasp. |
Should that really be your top priority, big girl?
I recall you have my invasion to be planning? |
...
I have a military to run, Squarck.
Let me do my Helix-damned job without getting in my way any more than you already HAVE!! |
Awww, you're cute when you get mad, Ribbs.
Isn't she, Kree'zik? |
| I. Don't think I should answer that. |
| Hah! I guess you're BOTH bores! |
Yes! Yes. Ahem.
It seems that-- well.
I did manage to trace their hyperspace route! But the answer is more complicated-- |
| We don't-- strictly know! |
I-- We know the way they traveled, we can trace their path, but...
There's a node in the network that's not functioning as expected -- we think it may be related to the recent disappearance of a different craft -- and once they passed through it, they just-- vanished! |
I-- I--
If I had to guess I would say, this is likely another dimensional anomaly, and they've been transported to a parallel reality--
But, these readings-- they could have been atomized!
It would be impossible to know without sending a scout, and given the danger involved-- |
I'm solving this problem.
Seeing as I'm the only one here who still knows how to DO THAT. |
But-- Ribrax, that way is the-- those specimens aren't cleared for...
For... |
Hah, wow. You just let her walk alllll over you, eh, dorber?
It's just sad to watch, honestly. You should take a page outta, uhhhhh, wassername, the labcoat I gave the medal to.
Now her -- she was a go getter, she had fire! |
You mean Doctor Blaise?
The one who just turned traitor? |
Yeah, be like her!
Wait, that was her?
My mistake! Kyaahahahahehehehehee!!! |
|
Another empty shell, come to visit. |
| I came here for a purpose, creature. |
|
Is that what you tell yourself? |
|
You want to see it fucking thrive? |
|
You hate this place and everyone in it. |
|
You're running on nothing |
...
I wouldn't expect a thing like you to understand dignity. |
|
Do you feel dignified when they fucking |
|
Tearing itself to pieces. |
|
And I'm the only one who sees it. |
Enough of this.
I'm not here to talk.
I have something I need and you are going to provide. |
| It's time you made yourself useful. |
