"Kaylee!" Cap. Mal Reynolds strode down the gangway into the open air of what looked to be a flat, boring desert. With a very odd, circular thing heaped right in the middle of the flat boringness.
"Yeah, Cap'n?" Kaywinnet Lee Fry's voice held more dubious amazement than polite questioning. She, Jayne, and the young doctor all stood in front of the large, round, statue-ish thing, with faces of wonder.
"I know it's a…thing of interest, but I gotta have my mechanic in there gettin' my ship workin' again." Kaylee shook her head in disbelief then turned back to Mal.
"Yeah, Cap'n, I'm comin'," But just as the young mechanic spoke, the inner ring on the round thing started to turn, causing both Simon and Jayne to jump back in alarm. Jayne pulled his trusty gun out of its holster, pointing it at the ring itself.
"What are you gonna do? Shoot the stone?" Simon questioned skeptically.
"Uh…yeah." Simon shook his head and opened his mouth to snark back, when a pool of blue, shimmering stuff flew out of the circle then back into it. The group of four, Mal and Jayne's guns notwithstanding, watched in horror.
...As a horrible, small rabbit came jumping out to seal their doom! Aw, c'mon, I had to put a Monty Python reference in there somewhere! Reviews, please. Please!
