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

*dodges fruit*

Hey, you!

*points at Apollo, unsuspectingly*

Cover me, I nearly got hit then.

*still gallops*

Saturn Girl, riding on a camel near the disguised Apollo, is perched rather oddly, applying sun-screen to her exposed skin, not wanting to get sun-burned. She's wearing a pair of brown leather 12 eye combat boots, with only an inch and a half of heal on them, low for the usually high heal clad bombshell. Slung low on her hips is a pair of khaki colored convertable cargo pants, with zippers two thirds of the way down her thighs to change them into shorts, a brown leather belt holding the pants up, with a dagger in a sheath on the left, and a length of rope coiled on the right. A tight fitting white cropped tank top, a khaki colored wide brimmed Tilly hat, and a semi-auotmatic sub machine flea-dip gun slung over her back finish off the outfit.

She finished applying the sunscreen, and leans over dangerously to put away her sunscreen in her saddle pack, unintentionally giving anyone looking a perfect view down the front of her tank top. She sits up again, and looks at who she's riding next to. The face hits her as vaguely familiar, but she can't place it. She shrugs to herself, taking the semi-automatic sub machine flea dip gun to provide cover fire for Sultana Mushroom of Arabia, and rides up close to the stranger.

"Hey, you.... You must be new around here, I don't know your face, what's your name?"

*watches with interest from high up on the parapet*

Better tell the Colonel - they've arrived . Now how will the refleaf column get through. We're definately cut off !

*pulls up short at the fort, clopping around as the other cats arrive and looking harried*

Hey SG- shall we call their surrender?

I donno, it's your call. I was gonna split off, and try something on my own in a minute anyhow... Maybe I'll take this new comer with me. Teach him the ropes so to speak, is that okay?

Fleagionnaires! Repel ze boarders! Um... Women and chidren first! No...

Ah! I remember!

RAPID FIRE!

*a withering volley of rotten fruit pelts down from the walls*

*Saturn Girl whips out her handy dandy umbrella, and rides up close next to the 'shroom to block the fruit*

I formally request permision to persue my own mission, and take the mysterious one along with me.

BTW, sarge, I hope you don't mind me calling you 'shroom, since you're not being called sergent in this thread... I like the way 'shroom sounds anyhow.

'Oo is zis dazzling mercenary 'oo is 'elping ze cats, I wonder?

Ay caramba! It is none ozzer zan ze dreaded adventuress Lara Crufts! Sacre bleu!

Laura Croft? Pfff... I ~should~ be insulted... I make her seem like a flat cheasted bumbling fool

So now we're both tomb raiders And I suppose I'll have to put up with 'Shroom

I wasn't aware that I was leading, but sure, off you go. Enjoy yourself

Oh yes, and I don't think the great Sultana should have her cupboard. I'll have to see how I do without; it may appear later though

*follows SaturnGirl, not saying a word*

*Saturn Girl hands over the umbrella before leading the strange new recruit off.*

So, hey, tell me about yourself, and what skills do you have I can make use of?

*still watching*

*holds umbrella*

*makes a gesture at some cats, who get out scaling ladders and grappling hooks*

*to Saturn Girl*
Vell Madame... I scale valls very vell, and I am very effeciant at doing vundercover type activities...

*cats begin to throw grappling hooks over the walls, and climb them*

*SM watches a short distance away, shouting the odd order*

*Sandy figure watches activites with interest. Scans walls for possible weak points.*
This attack will make an excellent distraction.
*Prowls off under cover of cape.*

* Looks around and zees zat ee iz all on ee's own*

Merde !

*Takes advantage of Fleagionnaire tea-break*
*Creeps up to rear wall*
*Looks around nervously, fingering rope and grapple*
