Adam ran around his Lab, enjoying a few moment peace while working on a few new inventions. Then he felt it, the cold chill of darkness creeping into his ship, attempting to smoother him.
"Me dear dear Adam, How resourceful you are to have escaped my Temporal Vortex."
"Elisandro," Adam breathed, feeling the monster of a man breathing on his neck.
"My brother, how tired you have become, dealing with these baboons." Adam turned only to see air behind him.
"They are my friends, my crew and I trust my life to them."
"Then you give Death an easy shot." The darkness creeped away, leaving Adam drained. It wasn't long before the computer flashed with a priority alert from Nate. The YWS Station was under attack from a Spamm Starr.
"Damn..." Adam pulled himself together, activating the shipwide intercom, "All Hands prepare for battle. Set course for Earth."
"Maybe Senpai ate Yuka-tan's last bon-bon?" ----Stupei, Ace Defective
Adam, you know we love you. We wouldn't even have CRA without you! Also...why is it that we all type this in third person? Does anyone care if I post in first person?
Bella, who was leading Jordan up the deck, heard Adam's voice over the intercom.
"All hands prepare for battle. Set course for Earth!" he said loudly. Bella ran ahead and jumped to her seat at the controls, setting the course.
"Adam, are Alice and I allowed to go out in the single shuttles?" she asked hesitantly.
Adam raised his eyebrow at the question, "Are Quantum Cobalt Fission generators Cold?" Bella simply looked back at the controls.
"Uhh...right." She entered the course and inot Forum Jump they went.
"According to the message, A Spamm Starr is attacking the YWS Station. So We're going to have to unload quickly once we get out of Forum Jump. I've re calibrated the shields and installed some new toys for the ship, but as we all know, the Spammians are not to be down played."
"What is a Spamm Starr?" Jordan asked.
"someone fill in the n00b, I have more installations to complete before we get to the Station." Adam left them to it, wondering if Jordon would prove to be useful or not.

Nutty randomly wanders in.
"Jordan, spammers are bad, that's all you need to know. See a spammer, bite him, hit him, or whatever, okay?"
Turning away, she pulled out a chocolate bar from her pocket and devoured it.
"How long will we have to prepare?"
It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.
Nutty glanced at Jordan. When had we picked up a Newb? Thinking back, nutty remembered vaguely deleting some mail. Maybe she should have read that, she mused. Turning to Bella, she stretched. "I'm going to my quarters to get ready then, if you need me. Jordan, I'm the unofficial medic. Try not to overuse me like the rest of 'em." Nutty grinned.
"You volunteered, Nutty." Bella pointed out.
"Just cuz I'm such a nice person." Nutty laughed, and turned way and made her way to her rather messy quarters.
"Now, where did I put that silver polish...?"
It's not easy having a good time. Even smiling makes my face ache.

Adam tightened the new power couple to the main line. Giving the ship an extra boast for the time being. The closer they got to the the Station, the more the darkness could be felt. Adam knew, he knew Elisandro was waiting on the attacking Spamm Starr. He knew they were being drawn in, but he had to do it. He had to take care of his brother once and for all.
The couple puled with energy as it funneled a cleaner more precise stream through the ship. Shields were at maximum strength, the hull was polarized to help absorb enemy attacks. They might be ready, then again, nothing was certain and Adam was afraid. For once he as afraid of what might happen to his crew...to his friends.
"Approaching destination," chimed the heartless computer. It was time, time to face up to everything Adam had hidden for so long.
"Maybe Senpai ate Yuka-tan's last bon-bon?" ----Stupei, Ace Defective
"Computer can you give us an approximate location?" Adam asked his power drained ship.
"S-ship l-l-located nnnnear the eddgge o-o-of the So-so-solar sssysstem."
"This is bad. Everyone stay in pairs or groups while I go check on the power core."
"The hell," said Alice. Her eyes strong in the darkness and her tone halting all movement. "We all go. First we get Jordan a weapon, then we all go to the Core Room."
"I can't risk you all getting hurt. There's o telling what is done there."
"Exactly," Bella pipped up, standing by her friend, "so how can we just let you go by yourself." Adam looked from one member of his crew to the other, it was clear to him they wouldn't take no for an answer.
"Fine." Adam pulled a small pistol from his waist and tossed it to Jordan. "Aim and shot. It has 100 charges in it." Adam led the way, down the dark corridors towards the Core Room. Curious as to what was draining the power. Curious as to what Elisandro had released upon his ship.

Alice and Scipio stayed close together as they walked slowly towards the Core Room. Adam seemed frightened, and if something frightened Adam, it had to be something bad. Scipio took Alice's hand and she gripped it for comfort.
When they entered the Core Room there was no light at all for a moment. they all stumbled around like idiot's for a moment and a small dot of light appeared. Somebody was holding it. Suddenly so much light filled the room that it almost blinded them.
When the light stopped being blindingly bright Alice put her arm down from where it was sheilding her eyes, she saw someone standing twenty feet from Adam, who was frozen.
