-----> From hanger dec

Kira arrived down in the hold making sure she had no weapons visible as she made her way off to the static field area, "Ok good work you grabbed the tools Morgan, once we get out there we hold tight until given the signal... will make it look like we are doing standard starship repair work... no weapons visible until given the order" she made sure they understood before getting ready to head out the static field and to space.

------> To space when ready

<<<<<<<<  From Hanger dec after vera send off.

 Robbins  stood  with  Shadow and  Abby  after   unlocking  Abby's  chains..

 ..here's the   Deal Abby... there's a Cam right up there in that corner.. we  can see what you are  doing   or what you did..I'm locking you up here..because, when i come back..You and I are going to chat  about Maris...

 ..you think you can make me talk...

 Shadow's  face  was dead  serious.....you'll talk alright..you'll  tell me  everything..you'll tell me who you got laid  by, you'll tell me all the names of your pet gold fish..and..you'll beg me to stop...but?..by that time..it  may be too late.... so?..I'm letting you walk around  down here  for the next  20 or so hours.... if nothing  is shaking  down on Calimate..i might just come back early,,,

 ..you...you..think yer so tough...

 Abby?  you and those  mickey Mouse   folks  you ran around with in england, wouldn't have lasted  2 days on the  East Side... and that's a promise..i have learned alot of stuff  since my days capping  Gangers and Mobsters. Walk around enjoy the  feeling of your legs.., 'cause  , unless you're  real cooperative .. you'll never  use them again...

 Robbins looked more then a little Unnerved... as the  two turned  and left Abby holding herself   with both arms.. the   door  Slammed  shut, she  could  hear the   locks  click into place

 an ALLCOMS   message went out......no one is to approach the Hold  for the next  20 hours..SEC  with  shoot anyone  attempting to enter... that is all...

Henry led the way into the 'zoo', sniffing the familiar smell.

"What sort of environment does a pirloc like, Zobaich?"

  The Pirloc  squawked  a bit   as they  went do9nw to the Zoo. The woman  Henry had  hired  to  clean the   zoo, was  setting the Metaglass protectors , to  help protect the   pames  from damage should  they be  boarded  or take  hits.

 The QM  guy  followed the two, Val, and the bestie  down to the Zoo...I have to make sure  its   confined, before i can report back to my station... according to  The  Chief  who scanned them in?.. the  Kid  paid  10 creds for it , at a pet shop in  The Uppers  on Everest...  If we seize the   thing?.. I guess we have to pay them back?

 Val watched the woman taking  extra  card  as  they   slide  panels  in front of the  Metaglass.

   flanking the Hold Bay  were   two heavy Pulse gun 'nests',Troopers  were  beginning shore up  with   barrier panels   so they   had over lapping  fields of  fire  in case   some one tried  to  enter there.

Henry rummaged through his pockets and came up with a handfull of cred disks.

"Here, give this 'kid' 30 creds. I'll make sure the pirloc is safe. Shona, do we have some space? Normal air composition and pressure, a perch to sit on, for the time being. You're doing a magnificent job here."

 Shona looked  at the   containment  area,.. we can put a divider in.. be  about  3 feet wide.. and the  10 foot tall  a  perch is  no problem, one of the  trees will ne in the  section?... we  can   redesign it  after the   conflict is resolved?

 The  QM   trooper  took the  Creds...I'm close, so I'll just run over to the Civie section  Now.... he tapped his COM   and waited for an answer.

 Yes?  Ma'ama?..  your  creature  has  been  taken into   Bio-tech containment?..   you can visit it   when  actions  warrent... I'm on my way with some  creds  to reimburse you for your  costs..

  He nods  to  henry,Civie  are gettign ready for the Bunker, so i'm goign to run it up now, and   then report to my station...

 he took off  on a fast jog towards the Civie section.

Zob looked over the cage, "It depends on the specific kind but this one i would say is more suited for a Arid climate, the ones ive seen usually roost on the cliffs near volcanoes"

Flex

"Thanks, Zobaich. Shona, set standard atmosphere, arid, a little thin, please. Now tell me, Zobaich, where did you find this little beauty?"

Henry was (as ever) curious.

In reply to Henry Christie (msg # 291):

(Flex)

Zob chuckled awkwardly, "Well i didn't Dr Henry the family did and where they got it is a mystery of the ages given the rarity of such a creature, most demons of the high social cast eat the eggs like human soft boiled eggs for major social gatherings... a rather dishonorable tradition if you ask me its why usually there is such enmity between Pirlocs and the demon species"

"I'm glad you did find it, Zobaich... and that it seems to get on with you OK."

Henry grinned.

"At least it'll be safe here for the time being. I suppose I'd best get some weapons, hook up with Mila, and see where I can make myself useful."

----> From gunnery range (After flex)

After having his fun at the range he returned the ender back to his storage unit then headed down to the hold to spend some time with the Pirloc.

He asked the trooper stationed on guard how the creature was doing, "How's the Pirloc doing?"

 The  Woman who worked  cleaning the  animals stalls looked at  Zob,Its  friedly enough when i set food  in there..but it  gets pretty angry when i try to clean its  area..and I have to... its been a few days, I hate to  use the net on it.

Zob looked to her then to the cage, "They are territorial creatures for certain being apex predators, be ready to shut the cage behind me I'm going in with it" he then took a deep breath as he got ready by the cage entrance.

  Shona  oepned the section of the  Metaglass for the Pirloc's cage.. the   small creature  Felw up to the top most branch.. it  Spread its  wings and Hisssed  a  Zob and   hopped from one leg to another.

Zob grabbed a piece of meat and held it in his hand as he stared down the Pirloc not backing down to its challenge, "Gru ta elzog ni chulu!" (Be nice and come down here, I've come to feed you)

  The Pirloc tilted its head a bit, looking  almost 'larg-like'.. hit stopped hopping  but had its    wings  spread.. it hissed less..

 Shona  watched  she had a net ready, but she hated to use it on the animals, just for cleaning.

The whole time Zob didint back down he raised the piece of meat and motioned for the creature to come down and join him, "Ashu gro fushka!" (Come down and eat and be strong) he needed to get the creature confortable with his presence and he knew it was gonna take a great deal of time but you had to start somewhere.

The Pirloc  titled  its  head back and forth, clearly wanting the meat... its   winggs   came down a  bit  and  it   'errppped'  a bit  as it sorta hopped to the end of the stick it was on.

Zob made a motion for Shona to place the cleaning supplies in the cage once she did so he stepped closer to the creature and lifted the piece of meat up to the Pirloc and gave it to him before going back to grab the supplies to clean the cage for her.

  The  Pirloc   leaned its head  and snapped the  meat, holding it  down with a  claw  while it   took bites out of it.. as hit  chewed  it looked  around and Watched  Zob  clean this inside of the  Glass  as Shona  ran the hose in for he   to 'flush  any  thing to the back of the  containment area  that lead to the   water  recycle.

Zob washed away the feces and once he was finished slowly stepped out of the cage and locked it before he returned the supplies to Shona, "That went rather well but it will take a great deal of time to properly train, they are prideful creatures and territorial"

  Shona  smiled,Thanks.... I use the net   to  hold  some of the  creatures, but i hate using it, because it  just makes them more  distrustful.... You think you can train in?.. I mean, itsa only what..a foot long or so now? But i saw vids of them from   The Proving Ground thing.

Zob nodded "he's still just a wrymling so it's possible to instill the proper training into it just it's gonna take a great deal of time, the one on the proving ground from the vid I saw was a younger adult I've seen one that is nearly the length of a football field"

 Shona   shook her head,that one   broke through  a  derelict  demon craft... its was massive...and there were little ones?...about Larg size?... They had to  have a destroyer  break atmo and shell the   csip the big one was  trying to get out of.

Zob corrected himself, "It was a fully grown adult but not a elder, it's obviously been there a very long time and I find it very fascinating... Most Pirlocs hate demon kind cause many of them eat the eggs it's why there is such enmity and hatred, however when you have a wrymling like this the potential to grow beyond that enmity is possible"

Zob then shrugged, "Not gonna pretend that I'm a genious on the subject of Pirlocs I just grew up among them and know how to care for them"
