8th planet

Aaron-010 and Sara-012 came down to the surface in the same dropship, landing inside a newly carved cave that spiraled down to the top of the Maty and one of the now exposed entrances that had Star Force defenses built on top of it. They landed without incident and walked across the odd material it was constructed of getting vibes of something they couldn’t quite put their finger on as Morgan-063 emerged from the entrance to meet them.

“You have got to be kidding me,” Sara said as they met up, all wearing full armor in the less than hospitable atmosphere, as Morgan gave them both a telepathic update on their ‘guests.’

“We’ve still got Hadarak in some areas that we need to purge, but I don’t trust these ‘observers’ one bit. Some have Essence, others have abilities I’m still not sure how they work, but my dodging and defenses prevented them from killing me. I don’t know if I was just better than them or lucky, but I’m not risking fighting them alone twice.”

“We’ve got your back,” Aaron assured her. “What about the popsicles?”

“Haven’t had time to look into it…” she said, suddenly going stiff. “Did you guys get that?”

“Get what?” Sara asked.

“I just got another comm from the Maty on Star Force frequencies.”

“Another?”

“Right, sorry. Been so busy I haven’t had time to write in my diary,” Morgan said sarcastically. “I got called to assist in several particular fights. At first I thought it was the PanNari using the Maty’s systems, but later on realized it was something else. I just got another priority call to an area I haven’t been at yet.”

“Go,” Aaron said to both of them. “I can handle the interrogation better than you.”

“One isn’t enough,” Morgan said firmly.

“They know you’re here, and if they mess with me you come back and kill them, or the fleet does. The stupid ones died already. The others know their only hope of survival is to play nice. Trust me, I can handle it,” he said, referencing his formidable mental skills. “Go find out who’s talking to you. If there are more ‘observers’ here we need to locate them.”

“He’s right,” Sara said, “and you’re right. We need more of us down here.”

“The system isn’t secure yet,” Aaron pointed out, “and with your battle notes I have an idea of what these bastards can do. I’ll be fine,” he said, turning his faceplate transparent as well as a bit of his collar where he showed off an underlayer. “I brought backup.”

Sara’s jaw dropped. “What the hell?”

“It’s a friend,” he said of the Boos’mo. “We’ve worked together before.”

“Doesn’t that…stick?” Morgan said, cringing beneath her faceplate.

“Thought it would be better than wearing Petricite armor. So there are two of us. Go with her, Sara. I’m getting some very odd mojo from this place. There’s a lot more here than the observers. I’ll babysit them. Now go. Trust me.”

“What’s his name?” Sara asked.

“Jarvan.”

“Keep Jarvan hidden under shroud so they don’t know you have him.
