Mara was glad that the girl took her hand and walked with the white haired

But then there was the situation with Eleos "What about you? She is from your home city, will you follow or come with us?" she asked the human

"So, a big boat is our transportation, I assume?" Mima asked.

"...There's...still some personal loose ends I have to tie up." Eleos glanced at the girl's pendant again and was reminded of something. "...One last thing to do that I didn't realize before." He started to walk away and then glanced back again. "Thank you. I spent all this time searching and then you come along and..." He adjust his fedora. "Heh..." And thus he walked off.

The one man shook his head chuckling and Nero smiled. "In a sense, yes. But...not really a boat."

"Then I don't get it." Mima simply replied.

"You'll understand better when you see it." Nero and the soldier responded. Then they started head back to the space port.

Mima rose an eyeborw, then simply floated behind the two as they went along, crescent staff in hand.

Mara sighed, she looked at the girl who was healthy looking atleast, so she decided to take her to Celestora for the childīs safety

"Alright then, Iīll take her to a safe area that luckily is close to the planet, a freight ship is on stanby on the near fuel station and it will go to Celestora. Some partners of mine can take care of her" the bioroid said as her ship landed close to them

Taking the girl into the ship, the golden eyed took a transmitter and handed it to Eleos "Iīll come back when I see her safe on the fuel station, so keep it close to you. This place is dangerous by going alone, ok?"

Geeting into her ship, Mara seated on the cockpit and felt how some cables plugged onto her back, soon the consoles lighted on and holographic screens appeared before her. http://th05.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/...ce-d5q58lq.png

Preparing the final procedures, the bioroid looked at Eleos "Careful with the nature, they will try to cnoquer their original territory" she said as the hatch closed and the ship lfited off to space

The group walked into the space port, which was a hive of activity. Vatians, Irians, and Humans all coexisted. The din of daily activities rose up to the high girders of the ceiling.
"The transport is in Bay 62." The soldier stated. And so they walked off in the direction of the sign pointing to Area 6.

Eleos took the device and nodded as Mera and Anankerisa boarded the ship.
"Godspeed, Mera." Eleos held onto his fedora when he heard the engines start up.
-----------------
Anankerisa found a place to sit and started singing quietly a strange little tune.

Turning,
Burning,
Take it, unwind it,
Everything unra-a-avels in the course of time.
Every-
Thing
Does not ever sta-ay
If you leave the clo-o-ock tur-ning...

After reaching the freight ship, Mara spoke with some of the workers and got in terms with the situation with the small girl. They would take her to a safe place in Celestora system.

Reaching the girl as the ship was prepared to leave, the bioroid crouched to be at the girlīs level "Alright little one, this people will take care of you and take you to somewhere safe, Celestora is a nice place, whatever happens you can call me with this" she gave the girl a transmitter

"Just press the button and I will hear it, ok?" Mara said hugging the girl and sent her off to the ship

Later on, the golden eyed went back to her ship and went planetside searching for Gunner

Very little time had passed since Mara had left, but chaos erupted on the ship.
"All systems are failing!"
"Someone get those cooling systems back online!"
"The core is overloaded!"
In the confusion and havoc, the transmitter that Mara gave Anankerisa fell to the ground, clicking on. Everything happening in the station began to transmit.
"Someone! Get to the lower decks! Seal it off!"
"Man down over here!"
"Damn it! Where did that energy burst come from?!"
"Sensors say...it...it came from the system's star!"
"That's not possible! It wasn't supposed to flare up for another two months!"
Among all the shouting and blaring alarms, if one listened hard enough, they would think they heard a little girl...
laughing.

Mara didnīt expect the sudden call from the girlīs transmitter "Dammit.. what is happening?" she said to herself quickly looking at the screens. There were problems on the freight ship and it was getting higher heat signals than normal

The bioroid didnīt hesitate and turned back to the ship. Her vessel managed to get into one of the entrance decks and saw the whole mess

There were people already working on the machinery to cool down the shipīs engines from a remote point, but she knew it would take longer than the time they had. Mara got near the console as a worker was already panicking

"Let me deal with this, take the civilians to the escape pods, now!" she said looking with serious golden eyes to the worker who nodded

Taking a small cable from her pal, the bioroid started hacking her way towards the cooling systems ("Come on.. its just some firewalls.. nothing big.. Just a bit.. aha!") she thought now gaining access to the cooling programs. Her eyes were moving almost franticly from what a person would see from the outside, but in her golden irises she saw the actual programing inside the electronic space.

The heat signals started to cool down, Mara took a deep breath with some exhaustion, making direct hacks were tedious for her mind, but she had to be quick and find the girl. Using the shipīs cameras, the white haired spotted her in a corridor.

"Hang on little one, im coming for you") she thought getting up and running to the girlīs location

(By the way cucoo, her name is Mara :P)

"I've never seen such a place like this." Mima said.

Suddenly, a line in the landing bay exploded, setting off a chain reaction that either annihilated anything within or set it adrift into space. Blast doors started to seal off the area. Then another explosion in the station set the entire freighter drifting...
Anankerisa stood in the corridor, humming her little song. suddenly the lights went out and emergency lighting turned on. when they did, Anankerisa was gone, without a trace.

"Amazing isn't it? These space ports are the core of society here in the galaxy. You can find practically anything here." Nero explained as they began to pass buy some vendors with curious talismans and other historic goods that seemed to be patterned off of items of Old Earth.

Maraīs HUD was showing the girlīs location, but as the sudden explosion ocurred, she almost tripped with the rumble. Leaning on the wall, the bioroid saw that the corridor was now sealed, but even worse, the girlīs location in her HUD disappeared

"Come on! I have to find her, this place has not much time to withstand" she said to herself while using a console searching for Anankeris

Freighter - Near Senarious

Anankerisa was skipping through a cargo hold, still humming. Things in the freighter were starting to calm down as systems were slowly being restored. The freighter started to take a course to Celestora system.
