h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

*The four commandos lock and load, all of them with one eye on Major Scandrea>

First off, conceal those as best you can- you're wearing heavy robes, you should be able to fit those under there. We're going in as covert ops, only bring those out if you have to. Stevens, you have the explosives, right?

*Really wishes for a towel.*

*Stevens nods*

Yes Ma'am.

Good. Just keep everything concealed until we meet our contact in Bastet's temple, and be careful- I want everyone to come home safely!

*The Gate starts dialing*

[Walter] Un-authorized Gate activation

*The Gate opens*

[Walter] It's a radio transmittion from the colonel,

Help!! I need backup........*Static*.........Shiva's Jaffa............ambushed............Help they're gaining.............*static*..........probably in the village too...............Oh God....................

*A single Zat shot is heard and then more static*

[Faizhar] Dial the planet Reefgirl was one, she needs our help. We can go for Bastet later.

Everyone ditch your diguises, we don't want anyone recognising us on Bubastis.

*Leaves almost happily, and returns in her normal uniform.*

Where was that from?

*A call is put through to medics....


A few minutes later Captain Kat comes dashing into the room with a medical satchel, pulling on a camaflage jacket*

What's going on? Where's the injured person? Who's made a mess of themselves this time?

*stares at the lack of bodies*

Oh no...no way! Off-world? ooooohhhh why couldn't I have just stayed with my coffee and notes??

*goes into a corner to complete her dressing*

I was never meant for these things...I was meant for healing people...in a clean room! Oh well this is what I joined for.

Well, we're not sure. There's been a situation off-world with Col. Reefgirl. There were sounds of a firefight, but we couldn't get much except static.

Oh...the colonel? Oh right...oh. Oh dear...I'll be back in a moment, I may need more resources than in this bag.

*Shrugs of the Shiva suit and puts on some kevlar.*

When we get there, there is liely to be a lot of fighting. Be ready to shoot as soon as you go through. Don´t try to take any prisoners until we start to win.

*Gazes intently at the stargate.*

*arrives back skidding round the door*

I haven't been issued a weapon! I hope you don't expect me to fight with a stick or something!

Come on.

*Leads Kat to an armoury cabinet, removes a rifle, a pistol, and a small knife and puts them in various holsters on her person.*

Pick what you're best at using.

Thank you...

*eyes weapons warily and walks around as if they might inadvertently shoot her foot*

You can tell weapons training wasn't my forté. Maybe I'll stay at the back and only use these in an emergency.

*Whispers* That's what I'm planning on... */*
