Huh? Wha'smatter? Why'd you wake me up, Linus? 
Time to eat, drink and party again?

How could you sleep through all this activity Pierce?!
I suggest you get firing at those heli's before we get any closer to the huge party of Demosians now looming straight ahead!

Aha, so there really IS a party, eh? 
Well, let's boost it up a little, shall we? *sends five heatseaking mini-missiles towards the heli's in the darkening skies. Shortly after a spectacular firework is lighting up the party of deimosians as a handful of flying machines burst into flames*
There, now we can see what we are aiming at. Don't shoot until you see the purple in their eyes!

Thats the spirit...no actually THIS is the spirit
*hands bottle to Pierce*
That should wake you up a bit...

*Marching nonchalantly among the Deimosian army and wearing his stolen and ill-fitting Demosian uniform...the Bear tries not to attract too much attention to himself. At long last his tireless work at infiltrating the Deimosian Guard is a success. He cranes his head over the heavily armed and poorly trained footsoldiers and sees the BFG's APC in the distance....
He wonders "Do they have any beer?*

*Checking the screens, Kes notices Kuma out there. He uses a signal lamp to flash the message ....*

Hey, who are you calling nuts? *fires in the general direction of the deimosian army, trying hard not to hit Kuma*

shazzPRME Posted May 1, 2001
*Sees that Kuma is doing a pretty good job of decimating the stragglers in the Demosian ranks, but worries at the thought he has no beer*
OK... nice shooting Pierce and Wowbagger... I'm going straight for Kuma now... we can scoop him up if we're careful!
I don't want a repeat of that earlier problem with the greasy forward cannon!

Scoop the bear??? Hmmm, well, I guess there is a first for everything, n'est pas?
Better make sure there is enough beer in the fridge then.
On second thought: Better make sure there is enough beer in ME before we scoop the bear...
Someone hand me a 
?
*continues firing at the deimosians*

Kumabear Posted May 1, 2001
*starts runing for the oncoming apc, plowing through Deimosian soldiers...mouth watering. A stray shot from the apc grazes his shoulder* OW!
Calling all BFGs
Kes Posted May 1, 2001
*Fires some smoke canisters which land behind Kuma. Most of the Deimosians can't see Kuma now. Waves at Kuma as the apc bounces along towards him*
I was wondering where you'd got to!

shazzPRME Posted May 1, 2001
*Steers skillfully towards Kuma*
Quick... who's in charge of the James Bond gadgets on this thing?... we need to lower the scoop just about now....

Kes Posted May 2, 2001
OK ... here goes!
*Pushes button labelled "Deploy" on the panel labelled "Scoopy net-type gadget" *

Pierre de la Mer ~ sometimes slightly worried but never panicking ~ Posted May 2, 2001
You'd better make sure you don't scoop that doggy-dog over there instead
(sorry, couldn't resist...)

shazzPRME Posted May 2, 2001
Arghhh!
You could have warned us that pun was coming up Pierce... now my steering has gone all to cock!
*Swerves frantically and attempts to straighten face*

Wowbagger Posted May 2, 2001
Baby we were born to pun!
*rides dangling from the erm... Kuma scooper 
ready to help him in. The twists and turns from shazz's driving help avoid the hail of fire coming from the approaching army.*
*shouts* And guys... we'll need a medic for Kuma. Another bullet wound. Nothing unusual. But it looks like it's bleeding pretty profusely. I thought his skin would be getting thicker with all the action he's seen!
Calling all BFGs
Kes Posted May 2, 2001
*Tries to adjust the scooper controls to keep up with the imaginative driving*
Don't know about a medic ... but we've got a pair of tweezers and lots of cold beer. That's usually how we treat Kuma's wounds! OK ... coming up on him now! Stand by to scoop!

*Yawn... stretch... goes to bar fridge and opens it. Stands there staring blankly into it for a long moment. Takes the last beer... Yawns again.. Opens the beer. Sips.*
What's going on?
