She had opened a com line to the backup crew. "Hello, are you guys there?" She hoped that they could hear her. The delay from there to Earth was two days unless you were close. At which case it was instant. She had already sent a written message back to Earth, alerting them of the aliens.

She tried once more to speak with the backup crew. "Hey guys, we can't go in without you. We've found a hostile alien race... they're highly dangerous and it'd be a bad idea to go in just the two of us." Her robotic parts hissed as she adjusted herself to the heat. Her skin shone more and became slightly reflective. She waited in silent anticipation of a reply.
All I can hear; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". Even those tears; "I me mine, I me mine, I me mine". No one's frightened of playing it. Everyone's saying it. Flowing more freely than wine. All through your life; "I me mine".

**If you need me to I can make another character for the backup.**
Just another quack spouting psychobabble.

((Might I join? I can post a profile tonight. Interested in making a robot or cyborg, whichever.))

**Buggy, I'm not in charge here, but I know that we have one opening for a backup crew member. I'm pretty sure you can join without any problems.**

**Anyone can join. We need one backup member, and three alien-humanoids**

Name: Richard Walker
Age: Looks to be in his early twenties, was built 12 years ago
Code number:N137
Why they can't return to society: He's a sociopath android with absolutely no regard for his fellow beings. The only way the higher-ups felt safe putting him on this mission is by installing a shut-off program in him and giving the other members of the team the code to switch him off if he starts behaving badly. Only time will tell if there's any chance of him reforming...
Abilities/Weapons: Extremely intelligent and resourceful, with a vast knowledge of many varied subjects including the aliens they are encountering. Much stronger and faster than the average human. Carries a simple blaster, though he only uses it if he has to.
Description: No satisfactory pictures, so here's a description. Richard is pale with sharply defined features, blonde hair, and cold grey eyes. Stands at a little less than six feet, medium build, weighs about 300 pounds due to the materials he's been constructed from. Usually has a slightly bored expression on his face.
Other: Enjoys the music of Bach, especially the fugues, and is a talented pianist. That probably won't come up at any time during the story, but I thought I'd tell you anyways. Sinks in most liquids. Might be open to love, but it would have to be a very special circumstance. Be prepared for confusion and possible short-circuits if this happens.

"Copy that, scouting party," came an emotionless voice from the other end. "I will see what we can do to assist you. What is your position, exactly?"

Joan checked their coordinates and repeated them to the voice on the other end. "Be careful, it's really hot, and the aliens are everywhere."

"I'm not an idiot, you know. We have checked the probes and know of this planet's hostile inhabitants and unfavorable climate. We will arrive in approximately thirty-three minutes."

Joan's eyebrows raised at the coldness in the person's voice. "That's no way to address your fellow party members," she said sternly.

"I don't particularly care." The line was cut off.

**I think so. It's not my thread, but they need alien-humanoids to assist/try to screw over everyone.**

**The only spots left open are alien, humanoid things.

P.S Buggy, I would rather you didn't speak for my character. I don't feel right about that. And her personality is more... sarcastic then that if you understand what I mean.**

Joan hissed. "Android... talking to me like that... grrrr." She turned back to Lheah. She smiled. It was an angry smile. She was put in command once the backup troops arrived. Her! She knew that this other android would challenge her.

She grinned. "Guess what! There is some I love you wad android. And I know how to turn him off." She sat down next to her. She put an arm around her. "Now we just have to wait" She sighed. She looked in a random direction. The fact that she knew this girl was going crazy didn't help one bit.

((Ah. Sorry. Generally people allow that in threads on this site, but if you don't want me to it's not a problem))

A dark shape moved through the atmosphere, casting a shadow over the scouts. Soon a figure materialized in front of them, teleported from the ship above.

It became easier to see as the shadow moved away. The person was pale and didn't look particularly tough. He regarded them with a look of very mild interest.

"You're the scouting party I was sent to assist?"

**Yeah, I'm sorry. Feel free to do that lightly. But just remember she is highly sarcastic and has a need for dominance. I tend to snap. I'm not used to this method. Also I'm tired so don't mind me. x(**

**No problem, seriously. I'll remember your character's personality if I need to do that again. And I really am sorry.**
