Shauni placed her helmet on. The built in radio immediately began to crackle with numerous messages. "Experiment 628, Report your status! Come in Experiment 628!"
Shauni locked the helmet in place and opened the airlock. "I'm here."
"Experiment 628, where have you been? We lost contact with you half an hour ago."
Shauni closed the airlock and its second door opened sucking her out into outer space. "I was searching the main lab. My radio wasn't working in there."
"Understood. Probably magnetic or ionic interference. Did you find Project Alpha?"
Shauni smiled. "No. from the look of things he was to close to the blast and didn't survive"
."All right. Report back to the drop ship and call back the troops. They found nothing as well."
Shauni thought for a moment. "Can you send someone to pick me up? My boosters on my suit are malfunctioning."
"We'll send a nearby squad to pick you up. Stay where you are."
Shauni grabbed onto a steel girder and pulled herself up onto a platform. The feet of her suit instantly attached her to the metallic surface. So they didn't find him. Good... Shauni though back to the video she had seen earlier. I don't care what he did back then. He's good now. He knows what he did before was wrong. Shauni frowned for a moment. He doesn't deserve to be hunted by the Galactic Federation. She thought back to what Kyle had said about her. She placed her paws on her abdomen and smiled. For the first time she actually though about being close to Kyle, cuddling with him and licking him. Her smile quickly disappeared as she remembered what else he had said. "You need to stay away from me Shauni." Shauni began to quietly cry. The one creature she was made for didn't want her.
A small personal transport rocketed towards Shauni and came to a slow drift next to her. Her radio crackled on again. "Experiment 628. Were your escort." one of the soldiers held out a hand. She reached out and the soldier yanked her onto the transport. It rocketed off towards the drop ship as a small dark figure clung to the underside of the transport.
As the drop ship landed on the island of Kauai, Jumba, Lilo and the whole gang anxiously waited for Shauni's return. The loading ramp of the ship slowly opened with a hiss revealing Shauni standing with her head hung low. The Grand Counsel Woman walked out from the loading bay followed by Shauni. "Thank you for the use of your experiment Jumba. We have updated the repurposing agreement to include experiment 628."
Jumba walked up to Shauni and picked her up. "What about Project Alpha? Is he alive?"
The Grand Counsel Woman shook her head. "No. Experiment 628 as well as the search party I had sent in did not find him. Either he died in the explosion or he somehow left the area. I'll have a few local squads patrolling the area be n the look out for him. in the mean time Jumba... no more experiments." Jumba nodded and the Grand Counsel Woman walked back up the ramp and it closed and the drop ship left just as quickly as it had arrived".
"Jumba? How come you told the Grand Counsel Woman that Shauni was experiment 628?" Lilo asked.
"Is cause I did not want Shauni to be arrested just for existing. You heard Grand Counsel Woman. She had to specificly alter repurposing rules to allow her on search party?"
"Search for who? Who's project alpha?"
Shauni turn around from off of Jumba's shoulder and faced Lilo "Kyle... he's project alpha. I'm project beta... Hamsterviel made us... the projects." Shauni watched the drops ship become a speck in the sky and disappear. She looked at Jumba. "He's alive. I saw him." Jumba smiled. "He wants me to stay away from him though." Shauni frowned.
"Do not worry Shauni. He'll be back. We have his van. I am sure that he will be wanting his belongings." Shauni smiled for a second but it faded away. "Come. Let's get some rest. Is getting dark."
The Grand Counsel Woman walked down the prison block stopping in front of a cell that appeared to be empty. She punched in a code to the side of the cell and the glass pane to the cell window retracted. She walked in and looked at the ceiling.
"I am taking it you didn't find project Alpha?" Dr. Hamsterviel muttered from his imprisonment pod.
The Grand Counsel Woman shook her head. "No he probably died in the blast."
"HA! That is typical of your self you stupid Grand Counsel Woman you! He's probably escaped from your troops or dismembered them."
The Grand Counsel Women gently nodded her head and turned for the door. She paused and turned back towards Dr. Hamsterviel. What about the human. The one you had imprisoned by Gantu."
"Huh? Him? He is of no use to me. I don't even know where he is."
The Grand Counsel Woman left the prison cell and the glass door closed behind her. "Indeed..."
