We were getting close to the planet, according to the computers only a few more days in space at most, which was a great relief to everyone, especially Tobias who everyone could see was missing the sky, being a hawk so he was prone to get snappy and irritable with people when they invaded his space in one the periods when he moped around. I could tell this was a particulary bad one and wasn't going to get much better because Rachel was starting to get tired of it. I could tell from the way she was looking at him as he fluttered from a chair, to a beam on the ceiling then back to a chair, that she was going to start something that could go very bad, very quickly, the others had seen it too, and were looking nervously from Rachel to Tobias then back to Rachel, even Ax had picked up on the storm on the horizon and was staying quiet, steering the ship towards the planet.
"Strange, all this white, very different from Earth where we had the sky, isn't it?" said Rachel, her eyes locked on Tobias's head.
Yes, Strange. Said Tobias shortly
"I think I prefer it" said Rachel. Here we go, I thought
That's nice, good luck with that snapped Tobias quickly
"No need to take a tone with me Bird-Boy" Rachel snapped back, she was getting angry and had probably forgotten that it was her that had started this whole conversation in the first place.
I'll do exactly how I like, you don't hold any power over me, Blondie Tobias threw back, and everyone took in breath, even Ax shifted uncomfortably, no one, not me, not Jake, not even Tobias could get away with calling Rachel Blondie, she hated it and wouldn't stand for it, remember what I said about things going very bad very quickly? I was right wasn't I?
"What did you call me?" Rachel said quietly, anger dripping from her voice
I called you a Blondie, and why shouldn't I? You have blonde hair, so you're a Blondie don't see why you're so angry you call me Bird Boy so why can't I give as good as I get?
"I do NOT call you Bird Boy, well not often, and even though I'm Blonde you shouldn't call me Blondie because I don't like it and you should respect my wishes!" Rachel was nearly shouting now, Jake and Marco were slowly itching toward the door, desparately trying not to gain the attention of either of the warring lovers, strange that, I still haven't got used to calling Rachel and Tobias that, but thats what they are I suppose...I think anyway, who knows after this? But surely it cant be that bad can it?
Oh shut the hell up! I heard Tobias shout snapping me back to the present, Rachel had been on her feet glaring daggers at Tobias, but at his shout she seemed to shrink, her mouth opened and closed as though she couldn't think of anything to say. After a minute she realised Tobias wasn't going to say anything more and turned on her heel and walk out the door head held high we all watched her until the door slid shut behind he, then we all turned to Tobias who was looking at the door with fierce Hawk eyes, from which no one could guess what he was feeling at any time, then he fluttered down to the floor and calmly walked out the door after Rachel, and we all assumed that he was going to follow her into the she and I shared. But he didn't he walked down past our door and turned into his and Marco's room the door sliding shut behind him.
OK, I take it back, maybe it can be that bad.

Olias heard it before he saw it, a mighty roar, that seemed to come from everywhere at the same time, he instinctively looked up and gasped, a great black cloud was speeding toward the ground at great speed, something was going to hit the Planet!
"Thi'Ro! Look at that!" He called, his Second-In-Command looked up and gasped just like him
"What in the names of The Ellimist and Crayak is that?!" Thi'Ro called back
"I have no idea" Olias responded
They watched as the object continued to speed overhead, it seemed to be slowing down as if it was going to land. They watched as it did land, lowering itself into the trees just ahead of them.
Thi'Ro came running up to him,
"Lets go have a look" Olias said eagerly, he loved finding new things, which was part of the reason why he was a Hunter, Thi'Ro considered it for a moment then reluctantly nodded his head.
They quickly and expertly shot through the trees unti they came to a great clearing that seemed to have been created for this very purpose. As they cleared the trees they got a good look at the ship, it seemed familiar to Olias, though he couldn't think from where, they had no ships of their own only ideas of what they could be like, it was relatively small for what it was and what it could do, black and had few features except a strange symbol on the side, Olias studied it for a few lng minutes before it hit him.
"No, it cant be..." He muttered then The doors opened and a figure stepped out onto the ramp and all doubt vanished.
"SHIT!" Olias cried "RUN!"
He watched Thi'Ro start to run but suddenly get picked up off the ground by a large animal type think and slammed into a tree, the creature seemed to study him for a minute then opened its large jaws and ripped off his Friend's head in one clean bite. Blood erupted everywhere covering everything in a red liquid, Olias let out a cry of despair and tried to run to his friend but another creature picked him up and slammed him into a nearby tree,
"I am going to die" he thought, but just as the creature was about to bite, a cold voice filed the clearing
"No! Stop! He could be useful to us, and we need all the help we can get if we are to defeat these freaks, Knock him out and put him in the ship I will deal with him later"
Olias couldn't believe what he was seeing, it couldn't be, it just couldn't be Visser One. Could it?
He had no time to ponder it any further before a large object struck him and he lost consciousness
