*ooc: thanks to me! haha jk...but i did try contacting her once or twice...*

*BOT*

*Gale, Etheral, and Jack have been wandering through the brush all day. Luckily they found a few escape pods that were misfired durring the escape from the colony ship. They gathered just enough supplies for the next 3 days, as well as some weapon ammmuniton. Just a few hours later dusk sets in and the travelers build a tent. The rations consisted of smoked pork and stale protien bars. The pig roasted and sent a very thick scent into the jungle. The three chose this spot to camp because there was a large stretech of valley to cross in the next few days. But for now, there was much groaning from the nonstop pace since noontime.

The meal was horrible, the pork had lost its flavor in the smoking proccess. but everyone was glad to have something in their stomachs other than stale protein bars. The nightlife of the jungle was much of the one back home one earth. Chirping of crickettes and the occasional night bird screeching. But something broke the scerenity. The crickets stopped chirping. The birds grew quite. Someone was walking though the brush. The three were ready for a beast of unusual proportions looking for a cheap dinner. But a slim figure came out of the brush a pale faced woman. Before Etheral could say anything, Jack and Gale jumped out of the brush in a method to catch the intruder off guard. They succeded...in protruding a rather large scream from the woman. After the adrenaline rushes were over, the woman introduced herself.*

Nikoleta: Nikoleta Stefanovova is my name, i am of the Russian division of the Medical Core. But please call me Nika.
Gale: Sorry about the scare Nika.
Nika: Its ok, im kind of used to the sort of thing.
Jack: How long have you been walking for? You must be exhausted and hungrey.
*at that moment Nika's stomach growled...she blushed as everyone giggled but stopped dead when another crashing from the brush could be heard. This time, it wasnt a human. It groweled and charged into the campsite, ransacking the crude makeshift tents. The beast was the appearance of a bear with an odder appearance. Instead of mono colored fur, its fur was much more tigerlike and it moved much more like a tiger. Gracefully. Its size and grace were a deadly combo. The beast saw the company and bore down on them. But it stopped and shreiked in pain, then a much more human figure descended from the treetops and bore into the flank of the beast. It whiled around tossing the beasts assailant to the ground. It turned on the company, a mistake it would later regret. Galen ran to distract the beast with Nika while etheral and jack dashed for their packs and their weapons. The beast turned toward Galen and lunged for him. A gunshot peirced the minds of the company and the beast. The beast fell midway to Galen and was severly bleeding in the left flank. Before anyone could attack it, the beast limped back through the brush it came, leaving streaks of blood on the leaves. It was quite for a moment as everyone caught their breath. But something wasnt right, there was a figure on the ground, knocked unconcious. Nika hurried towards the fallen figure. He was white, and not too far from his unconsious body lay a plasma sword. Nika reached into her pack for something to wake the man up. He coughed and looked at the party*

Etheral: I think i speak for everyone when i say this, thank you for distracting tha beast.
???: What? I only jumped into its side with a plasma sword, the beast must have a very odd bone compositions because the sword bounced off the bone very easily and flew a distance from my hands *the stranger reached for his weapon and packed it* My name is Urza Nightweilder by the way.
Jack: Then how did the beast have a limp the whole battle?
Urza: i dont know but...
???: i can tell you.
*another figure walked through the brush...wow so many introductions!*
???: I was watching from a far and used up the last of an old hunting rifle i found in a wreckage. its useless now, but it did seem to deter that beast off. Judging by the bleeding wounds, it will survive. But i doubt it will come here again. My name is Ivan. Ivan Kuzmich. I come from russian heritage and have been around guns my whole life. I am both a marksman and a skilled soldier from my country.
Nika: I've heard some of you. A discarded project by the russian government to create a superhuman bread for fighting? Too bad the *lunar wars ended 20 years ago.
Ivan: yes, i was in the program from an early age. You think i missed the war? I was sent into the lunar war as a young spy. I earned one medal the whole war. I was supposed to be of a team of special shock troops but the lunar rebels surrendered and returned to Earth.



*Lunar wars: A 10 year war between several earth countries and Lunar colonies as well as space and martian stations. The war was very disasterous and life loss as well as planet destruction of earth was very harsh. 20 percent of both lunar colonies and earth was lost and 22 percent of all earth has been declared the "dead zone" because nothing grows in these regions. no bacteria, nothing.*just a little insight*
