The droid had been a standard outdated security model. It had no vocalizer so it could not speak but internal cameras and a comlink so it could send reports in binary to a computer and receive updates to it's orders. After all the things weren't too bright so ignored things that did not pertain to orders. The main threat they imposed were numbers since they were so cheap most used a lot of them to overwhelm people though as security for a warehouse or other such places only a few were necessary seeing that most average people did not have the training to deal with one. It was the difference of perhaps someone going through intense basic training to a couch potato. It just wasn't likely to be beaten though anyone with rudimentary skills should be able to deal with a few of them easy enough. And if one knew their orders well one could use that knowledge.

Damage looked consistent to it just slamming into a tree, either it was thrown or flung into one. A real close look revealed shallow scratches on the casing on one of the cannon like arms … was it grabbed?

The droid still had power though needed to be repaired to be functional if all that water and mud didn't seep into the chassis which was probably more than likely given how cheap the droids were. Maybe if they had the right equipment they could hack into the visual recorder but that would require getting back to the station. The only option they had really was jury rigging it and questioning it but since it could not speak this would be limited.

That was about when the two agents, Nail first, realized that the lizards vacated the area. The bugs hadn't, not at first then both noticed them fly in chaotic circles as a repugnant smell hit the air smelling like a skunk. The bugs then cleared out of the vicinity.

Straining their ears they would soon hear the sloshing of water. Something large or numerous good sized beings were approaching. It was doubtful that they had been detected as it didn't appear that whatever it was had been attempting to conceal it's presence. It was not loud but could have been quieter they thought and given the sounds they tended to make from water displacement they could tell it was larger or more numerous in number coming this way as both the sound and smell heralded.

Nail handled the recon droid with care as she dislodged it from the tree, it looked crushed, dent up, and beaten, as if it crashed into this tree she was near or that something very strong chucked it in this direction and got it stuck inside the tree. Either way it made Nail reconsider its cheapness since it still held together despite such treatment. However she simply tossed it back into the water as Moka approached to take a look out of her own curiosity.

"Its a recon droid...... Ive seen these befor..." Nail stated as she looked to Moka through the shaded visor of her helmet. "I think we should find sprount and get out of here quickly." Nail stated as she was ready to turn and continue on be for she suddenly felt the shift in the water and a tingle in the air as her half blooded helcorian sixth sense kicking forcing her to look around in alert as she took hold of her holstered blaster grip. Concerned by the way the way the animals and insects suddenly vacated the area, yet unlike Moka Nail didn't smell the pungent Oder of what ever was coming.

"Moka! Come! We need to hide!" Nail said to her partner as she reached out to the Majins wrist, taking it tightly as suddenly tugged her behind the tree they found the recon droid lodged into. "Get down.... In the water...hurry.." Nail said, sinking chest deep into the water to hide. hopefully it was big enough for two of them to hide behind and not get seen by what ever was coming.

Moka looked at the recon droid from over Nail shoulder, standing closely to her fellow agent curious about the device they discovered. It it were up to her they would have studyed it and tracked its last single message yet they didn't have the time or the equipment for it now as Moka watched Nail drop it into the dank murky water. It was then the Majins cute nose twitched and she made a face of discust. "Uh! what is that" Moka said disgustedly as she reached up to pinch her nose befor Nail suddenly took her by yhe wrist pulling her behind the near by tree. "What? Why? Moka asked as she was leaded behind the tree, soon forced to her hands and knees to hide chest deep in the water as well..... yet unlike Nail, Moka didn't have her suit sealed so the dirty muddy water got inside, runing her unercloths as she cringed with discust and shivering with the cold that touched her bare skin inside her suit. "Ehhh c-cold.." Moka muttered, completly unsure as to waht was happening.

As the pair of agents hide in that murky water they soon witnessed the cause of the disturbance. Three bipedal saurians all wearing a dark brown hide. Their scales were black, or so it appeared. It was actually dark green with some sort of dried black mud on it, the hides they wore and even their weapons which were spears though one of the trio was wearing a quiver with four javelins in it.

They drew close, one closer than the others though it appeared it had spotted them it moved towards the droid and seemed to play with it, like a young child playing with road kill.

This close to their hiding spot they could tell that the creatures were large, broad seven foot tall creatures. Most likely primitives of this world. They had tools so they had to have a dim amount of intellect but they could be fairly bright but nowhere near their tech level yet.

Moka would be able to tell that the smell was coming off of it, either that rub on it's body or a natural scent that it emitted. The dried mud could be camouflage too, that was possible but given that they did not seem to mute their movements any they were probably in a region that they deemed safe.

They could communicate, one seemed to say something to the one playing with the downed droid, it turned and said something back before snapping off one of the cannon arms and catching up to the others saying something to them as it examined that hunk of metal and wire though it seemed that they had not been surprised by it, at least there was only one that seemed curious enough by it.

The trio cleared out but the animals returned. With the two so close together the animal life was keeping a respectable distance … the lizards getting closer then the bugs. While the bugs didn't draw near the lizards they did not get any closer to them at all until they started away from that tree. In fact even as they left the vicinity of that tree they did not approach and they would note that there was some of that dried mud on the droid where the creature gripped it and tore it's arm free.

These things were quite strong whatever they were though the rest of their travel took them to a large mound with a small den that they could enter but would have to crawl. The signal had said that this was the area though it might have been a hiding spot. It was dark and deep widening out at the back to allow some animal a place to sleep or curl up in.

The entrance was large enough for them and no doubt Sprout as well. As they reached that spot though they could hear hurried movement through the water. It was not getting closer or further away from it's sound but had been generated in the direction that they had come from.

Nail pressed down on Moka, keeping her with her in the shallow mud as they hidevfor their own safty, diligently watching the two large beings that approched the tree as Nail lightly handled the hilt of her gun, ready to take the shot if nessessery. Luckly it never came to that...... the two large lizard like creatures didnt seem to notice them as they seemed more intreasted in the droan she pulled from the tree if anything.

"Suvaraina...." Nail whispered to her self as the sight of these creatures made her recall her first mission for that bastard Farfner.... she hated him for everything he did to her however becuse of it she did meet that primitive tribe and help them with their monster problems. For now however Nail did simply just watch the two befor they both finilly left, taking the droan with them. Nail was more intreasted in the two lizard men to notice the animals come back and once they left Nail got up off her partner Moka who was now all wet and seemed very discusted and annoyed by the blonds sudden tackle as she was now covered in the thick mud......

"Sorry..." Nai said to Moka, helping the alien cat girl back up to her feet befor they both moved on. Their travles soon brough them both to the origin of the becon Moka was fallowing, apparently under a mound of dirt or a hill.... a den? Nail wasnt certain, only that their wasa hole large enough for them to pass through yet their victory was short lived as Nail's sixth sense triggered once agin and her violet eyes lite up. "Moka! Get in the Hole! Go!" Nail said harshly as she sensed the coming interloper and the sound of splashing water..... Nail would draw her pistol and cover Moka befor fallowing in her self.

Nail didnt give Moka much time or warning as shewas suddenly forced to her hands and knees to hide. Blushing as Nail put her into a awkward pose beneath her, yet being embareesed wasnt the only probkem as Moka shivered and quietly gaspedas cold swamp water and mud made its way into her suit which was open in the front, fitting the cold sensation run downnher thighs, groin and legs, her chest and belly, so cold! that the majin warm blooded nipples harden almost instantly. It was horrible yet luckly it didnt last to long.

"I-its ok.... but warm me next time..." Moka said softly as she was helped back up out of the mud. Her under clothes ruined by the murky water as Moka simply tried to ring out her clothes.... but it didnt help, only managed to make it worse. The pair only had the choice to move on as Moka fallowed her maps, leading Nail to the den..... that was befor the new opsticals presented them self.

Nail suddenly barked orders frcing Moka's ears stude up on end befor she looked back to her partner. "O-ok!" Moka said hesitently, droppingto her belly and quickly tried to shimmy through the hole... hopfully Nail got through soon enough.

Crawling into the hole on her belly Moka found the entrance way that was just above the water level damp and both muddy and grassy. Suffice it to say it made a mess out of the white uniform she wore. The passage was wide enough for her and lead into a chamber that was large enough so turn herself around in but not to stand.

It would fit Nail too who had joined her shortly afterward though she couldn't see Moka at first but knew that there was something in the shadows of the den. Both could see out of the passage and could see some dim light there though it was mostly blocked out by the vegetation there.

The sounds that they heard grew no closer at least at first though it was noisy out there. Hurried sloshing sounds and shouts in that strange guttural language. The den shielded them though they were effectively trapped with there being only one entrance.

The good thing was that no one knew they were there. Only one could fire down that passage without serious contortion and it was clear that one of them could remain comfortably but it was a little cramped for two.

Right now though Nail had the shot if needed and while they listened in those intense moments a shift this way and that could feel something that wasn't so comfortable.

They had dim lighting and could tell that it was the communicator that they had locked onto though there were a few things here, the survival kit from the ship complete with a flare gun and medical kit adapted to the aliens which would have been virtually useless to them save for the bandages.

Then the situation changed. The noises were getting louder, something was in duress, calling out for help it seemed, either an animal call or a strange language the pattern kept repeating and sounded nearby, close to their position it seemed as if the brutes or something speaking their language had cornered something, it was hard to say from their position and only venturing out would tell or remaining in seclusion until this entire ordeal passed.

The sounds were close but not directly outside so it may be likely to sneak out and even keep the den hidden. What they knew was that Sprout was no longer hear but the supplies taken from the ship were. It could be it out there though that was doubtful too given that the language just didn't seem to match up with what they'd imagine it using even if neither had heard it speak … besides they had no mouths and used Telepathy and this just wasn't Telepathy.

Moka cawled through the wet muddy opening on her stomach as Nail ordered, getting muddy and wet in the process as the dank cold muddy water seeped into her uniform making it damp and cling to her soft skin underneath...... It was a awkard feeling that stained her cheeks red as she moved, feeling her nipples scrap ageist the damp inside of her suit only getting harder the more she struggled to move. Lucky it was just the two of them since Moka would look the mess once she stude up.

Soon enough Nail got down to and joined her in the hole yet that's when the screaming started outside as Moka looked to Nail with a look beggiing her not to go.

Nail climbed into the hole afther Moka. She blushed as the other SFA agents cute rear was directly in front of her face as she crawled..... yet more distracting was the fact her white uniform was becoming part see through.... allowing Nail to notice the ma'jins hot pink panties through the thin material.... yet Nail didnt feel it was important to mention or to embaress the other agent so she kept it to her self.

However Nail soon heard the shouts outside and instantly rolled on her back to look back through the tunnel entrance since she was still in the central tunnel afther drawing her pistol and aimed at the tight entrance incase somthing tried to crawl in with them.

"Moka.... find it fast and let go....." Nail whispered to Moka as she simply hoped to wait the creatures or side out for now.

The sounds continued for a bit. There was heavy movement through the muddy swamp water and the sound of wood striking wood. Was something moving through the swamp hurling something? It was but one possibility. Though that being whatever it was sounded to be in duress it may have been the longest three minutes for Moka hearing it but unable to do anything about it.

Then blasters … clearly a lot of them or a few set into an auto fire mode. Their shots splashing into water or hitting trees. There was a loud splash too as if something dropped into the swamp from the trees.

Then silence … no not quite … they could smell charred wood from where the blasters hit trees. Probably no fires but definitely scorch marks. What they could here now where the hum of repulsor engines. This continued for a bit as the heavy sloshing movements they heard earlier started up again then disappeared fading as that hum did. It was as if they were now moving in time with that hum or in that direction.

They had not been discovered and though the minutes passed in silence they were free to investigate. The area had been near by and they were not finding anything here. The area in question was not far easily discovered by the blast marks on the trees.

One of the large lizards that they saw earlier had been sitting in the swamp water with it's back against a tree. It's weapons gone and it had no less then half a dozen blaster wounds. Yet it was still alive, at least for the time being. Close to death perhaps. There were lots of downed tree branches too and it was clear that the massive creature was not aware of them yet though that probably wouldn't have mattered by the looks of it the thing probably didn't have the strength to call out for others.

The others it had been with too were nowhere to be found if it were one they had seen earlier. It had the javelin holder the others had though emptied as if someone simply took such weapons or it expended them all. There were none among the branches. It had seemed as if it had been left here to die alone given the rapid breathing it wasn't likely to survive much longer.

There was a loud commotion outside the pairs hiding spot inside the tunnle as the pair waited patiently for the enemies to pass. Nail vigilantly watching the tunnel entrance with her pistol drown waiting to fire the moment one poked through but lucky she never had to take that chance as nothing from outside tried to get in and still had no clue they were there.

"thank goodness......" A sigh of relief escaped Nails lips as the roar of repulsor engins blared and grew more faint as they moved away. She lowered her blaster and relaxed taking a momment befor she attempted to shimmy out of the tunnel as Moka took her time to search through the items found inside that the seedling apparently left behind.

Nail crawled out from the tunnel..... her suit muddy and wet, lucky it was sealed as she quickly took a look around befor standing up from all fours. Taking in scene of the fight here.... scorch marks scoring the trees that were still standing as Nail investigated the are befor she soon noticed the lizard being slumped agiest the tree still alive.

The sight of it took Nail back at first as sh took a deep breath and calmly approached, her pistol drawn as she got a better look at this hulking creature as she kneeled beside it in the mudd and placed a hand agiest its chest as if to calm it. "Dont worry the pain wound last long...." Nail said calmly through the voice box on her helmet befor she pulled up her pistol and gently placed the barrle to the side of its head ready to put it out of its misery.....

It was the longest three minutes of Mokas life as she simply hid, searching the supply cash left by the sprout they were looking for. Not finding much beyond a few survival items and medical packs.... all things Moka had no clue how to use, she was an astronomer not a medic.

Time passed and the shooting stoped. Moka soon realizing Nail had left to go outside and investigate making her not wanting to doodle in here longer then she needed too as Moka soon moved to climb out of this hole as well... yet that process was much worse for her then it was for Nail.....

Mokas head soon poked out of the tunnle to the scene of battle outside. Somthing Moka was no stranger too as she took in her surroundings befor noticing Nail not to far away, the hel'corian agent crouching beside somthing big agiest the three there? Moka quickly shuffled over only to realize it was a lizardman and Nail had her gun to it head.

"DONT SHOT HIM!" Moka cried as she quickly ran over to Nails side to stop her from ending the lizardmans life. Putting her hand on Nails wrist to pull her gun away from the lizardmans head.

The creature had noted the two, weakly looking in their direction. It made no move other than that and it was clear that little movement of it's head had taken a lot of energy. Whether or not it understood her was hard to say though it glanced to the blaster and seemed to be familiar with it.

No protest. It was done. Or was it. The creature shifted it's gaze to the newcomer and while large it somehow seemed far less intimidating now. It said nothing though, just looked at the two of them blankly.

All was quite, or so it seemed at first. Then the faint humming, growing louder as something was rushing back giving how quickly the sound escalated. Whether the shout was heard or the droids were modulated to detect even the faintest of disturbances had been unclear though they were security droids and while the model they had seen hadn't been the brightest they had been designed with pretty good sensors to secure an area against common opponents.

Soon they would be there, within a few minutes though it would give them time to take cover or perhaps even make it back to that hole. There were three of them, just three, rust in some places given the conditions of the swamp it had been clear that they had been here for some time and not maintained too well. One even had some moss growing on it and another had a left blaster arm that looked new by comparison to the rest of it's body … a replacement part given how corroded the rest of it had been.

If there were more they had gone on sending a small team to check the matter out. They stayed in a triangular formation though spread out as they moved, probably scanning for anything amiss though they had not targeted anything particular indicating that they had no idea as to what was going on. Nor did they not that the creature was dead, or had assumed it died from prior wounds, they had not checked on that yet and probably wouldn't at all.

The others, if there were more, had to be well out of range by now. Only three of them, they were able to deal with such numbers even though their blasters could be set to auto fire they were not too accurate.

They scanned then seemed to hover in place without doing anything before turning back the way they came … recalled … or did they transmit an all clear? If so it probably meant that they had an internal comlink that allowed them to contact one another and “speak” through computer code though they were simple so information was probably simple as well. And if recalled then something had to signal to them from somewhere.

All in all they could probably scan for a power source now that they knew what they were looking for, or might even be able to rig up a comlink to triangulate a power source though Moka would probably have fair greater success there then Nail would.

The droids were often on a basic broadband pulse when assigned to protect something like a warehouse. Though if used to secure a military base their frequency would be more secure though if a military base one would probably use more efficient droids in the first place or just standard soldiers which were far superior. For a hidden pirate base though they were probably not encrypted at all.

When the departed the creature, assumed dead or ignored as dying, was still hanging on to life, surprisingly. It had looked upon the pair but made no other move save for a tilt of it's head.

(Wow... forgot how much info that was lol :p)

Nail was ready to pull the trigger and mercy kill the poor sauren befor Moka rushed forth and stopped her. Soft pink eyes glaring to her fellow agent through tge visor of her helmet befor she dropped her arm and sighed. "Moka... it woukd be crueler not too...." Nail said harshly, defending her idea of the rightthingbto do as she raised her arm agin puttingbthe blaster to the beings limb head befor she suddenly paused as her suits's build in radar picked up a bleep in e vicinity, Nail's helm covered head snapingbto gaze in the direction the bleedswere coming from. "Somthings coming... get down...." Nail said as she pushed Moka behind her, eurging the women to hide quickly befor she did the same.

"N-no!" Moka objected. "We can try to save him!" Moka cried, tugging agiest Nail's much more stronger arm, hardly budging the agent. "mybe he can help us! Or... or lead us to sprout!..." Moka tried to reason yet her partner wanted no part of it as she simply was pushed away as Nail pulled up her gun and got ready to fire befor she suddenly paused to the ma'jins suprise, however Moka found her self even more suprised by how the other agent suuden looked off into the distance befor barking a order to hide.

"Y-yes ma'am!" Moka said with suprise as she quickly did as instructed, rushingbthrough the knee deep water, hiding behind the mudd hill that sprout had made as his home as the pair heard the sound of recon droans zipping forth as the two hid together behind near y obsticals.

It was the longest few momments of Moka's life.... (well not really.... there were worse times...)... as Moka nervous waitedvfor the droans to leave, soon coming out from behind the mub mound with a worried expression twords Nail. " What re droans doing on a primitive planet like this?" Moka said curious, lookingbto Nail befor she sudden had a crazy idea. "Wait?... if droans are here they much have a charging base near by?... if we can trace their signal then I can map usa chorse back to their main hub..." Moka explained befor she got towork on field tracing the droan signal to trace.
