Cara looked over at Lana, her cheeks were flushed. Lana smiled slightly at her before saying "He is a pervert for a Xeno." Cara chuckled and nodded. "Yeah he is." she washed her body then turned off the water. She quickly dried off and tied the towel in jer hair before dressing into her nighy wear. "I'll see you tomorrow." Cara stated simply before leaving the showers. Her feet hit the metal floor with quiet slaps as she walked down the corridors. She sighed and nodded to the guards she passed. She entered her room and saw Four curled into a ball on the bed. She smiled at the sight and threw the towel in a nearby hamper. She brushed her hair then slipped into bed.
She was very tired and weak. She pet her sleeping Xeno and smiled at him. Cara couldn't help but feel more loving towards him. Smiling, she laid down and pulled the covers up to her neck and fell into a dreamless sleep. After what only seemed liked seconds, she was woken up by Chris. She stretched and smiled at him. "Morning, sleeping beauty." he murmured. Cara smiled back at him and stretched. "Mornin'." she replied. "You may wanna get dressed and eat breakfast quickly. We're going down to the planet today." He said with a grin. She smiled widely and swung her feet from the bed to the ground. Chris pulled her up and walked towards the door.
"We're leaving in 20." he added before exiting her room. Sighing, she threw on a white tank top and brown military pants. She put her hair into a pony tail and woke up the sleeping Xeno. "Come on Four." she murmured, shaking him gently. She slipped on the combat boots and tied them tightly. Four popped his head up and Cara grinned. "Come on bud." she said as she walked to the door. She opened it and Four dashed out. She laughed and walked to the dinning hall to heat up a little oatmeal. As she heated up her food, she searched for raw meat. Finally finding some, she tossed him a few. She grabbed her food and quickly ate. By the time her and Four reached them, they had just recieved their ear peices. Michael grinned when he saw her and tossed her an earpiece. She put it in her ear and looked at hin expectantly. "Give me a gun." she demanded.
He stared at her then sighed. He tossed her a pistol and then a larger gun. She put the pistol in a holster then held the larger gun. "You know how to use it, right?" he asked her,concerned. "I was trained how to use a gun at age six. I think I can handle myself Michael." she said. He sighed and nodded. "Alright. Our mission is to search for any surviors down on the surface and bring them back up." he looked at Four and hesitated before speaking. "He will be coming to help us." a few protested but, shut up inder Cara and his gazes. They headed towards a small ship and buckled up. Four sat beside Cara while she situated her self in the Co-Pilot seat.
She smiled at him then flipped some switches. "System check." She said as she put her mic on. She flipped even more switches and the faint hum of the engines were heard. "All systems functioning." She stated, flipping one last switch. Michael nodded and pressed a button which disbanded them from Nostromo III. Cara looked out the window with a large grin on her face. She loved how space looked. Her and Michael steered the craft while checking the equipment. "Decending into LSR118." Cara said turning a knob. Michael and her pushed the steering down and the ship pointed down and she typed in numbers. "Increasing speed." Michael looked at a gauge and nodded. The speed increased drastically as they entered the atmosphere of LSR118. Cara studied the gadgets then her eyes found the screen which told them them their descent rate and height. "Entering middle layer of atmosphere." She said quickly as she reflipped the switches.

"1600 meters and downwards." Four cocked his head as he listened. He didn't understand much of what they saying. It was all to technical for him. He watched as the front of the ship looked as if it was on fire. He gribbed Cara's seat tightly and he bean seeing orange coming closer and closer. "1400 meters and closing!" his mate yelled. The place began shaking and in all honesty, he was not enjoying himself. He nudged Cara and she smiled warmly at him before returning her attention back to the screens. Four looked down and the whole place became dark,causing his sight to become like a heat reader.
He looked around and then everything seemed to slow down."1200-" a long pause then he saw Cara glance at the male known as Michael. "Brace yourselves, seems there's a bui-" he was interrupted by the ship scraping the top of a building and Four nearly toppled over at the sudden shake. He made a quiet screech and Cara turned to rub his head. "We've stopped moving. It looks like we're stuck so everyone be careful." she stated as she stand. "CO2 levels?" Jadelynn asks. "45%." Michael replies. Four looks as the humans get in some sort of protection.
He looked at Cara and cocked his head."They help us breathe." she states. He waits for them and when they open the ship door, Four jumps out and lands on a large metallic thing. Michael threw down a rope and they began climbing down. "I need a couple people to stay to repair the ship." There were murmurs then the last person descended the rope."Let's go. We need to find a way in." Four understood this and ran,searching for a good place to enter. He hesitated then used his tail to cut his hand. His blood dripped,creating a hole and he looked at the humans. They all hesitated so Cara came forth and wrapped a bandage around his hand. He looked at her and she smiled before attaching a rope to a nearby spike. She went down first and Four followed, crawling on the walla of the building.
