The NEW Adventures of the ALPHA-1

[Dingo1]

Ok team....The Alpha1 is out of the mothballs and my hangover is down to a low roar, so I will not bite you appendanges off when you walk by where I passed out.

****  RED ALERT.........RED ALERT ****

Massive exodus from the BBC Science & Nature sector as the result of an invasion of Bozo's.  Refugee's are starting to pour in.

ALL HANDS REPORT FOR DUTY AND IMMEDIATE DEPARTURE
(Failure to report in will result in having to spend a week entertaining Ensign Linn...He has reached the well named Terrible TWO's)

[Rxke]

Rxke reporting for duty, Mon capitain!

I happen to be packing a significant supply of Earl Grey Teabags, maybe we can use that as a bait to lure in some of  these gullible new refugees? Since our last misadventure, I  noticed we're in desperate sort supply of *ahem* red shirts... 

[Sarah90]

This has not been a prettty picture, so far... However,  am  ready to be imported into/on any adventure described... ... ...(Thinks: " Earl Grey Teabags...I know I'm going to regret this" !)

[Dingo1]

Due to the reputation of "Red Shirts"  All expendable personnel will now be issued Dark Blue shirts.  An appropriate ensignia has been designed to designate such crew member.  A circular patteren 15cm ( approx  5 inch) in diameter red in color with a large white X in the center surrounded by a 3cm ( Approx 1 inch) white ring.

This distinguished ensignia is only for "expendable" crew.  All officers will were the appropriate "Mimic" light bending camiflague uniform of the day, unless otherwise designated by our Admiral.  She possible will like something that would set off her puple plumage better

[Astronuc]

OK, I brought along some tools, er . . . I mean toys, er . . .  no wait . . . decorations, ah no - that's not it either,  . . . . well implements then . . . 

Just in case, you know . . . 

[Dingo1]

Ooooohhhh Astronuc, nice supply of Bozo reeducation instructional aids

[Astronuc]

Yes indeed.  And they work on Trolls too!

One can certainly get the point across. 

[payloadcontroller]

*suddenly appears on the Bridge, an MIB and a small koala in tow -- but no cat *

All right, Dingo, emergency preps in progress? What's the status? Estimated time of departure? Uniforms look fine...

*to cargo bay*

Scotty, bring aboard that load of scones, chutney, Guinness, and -- sorry, Sarah -- marmite at once. Oh, and don't forget the eucalyptus trees for Bernard. Move those to Hydroponics. Lock down and prepare for departure!

*glances at Sarah mischievously*

I have the REAL stuff, the Vegemite, in my quarters. 

[Sarah90]

A PLC being mischievous ?... Gulp...there's trubble immediately!  (Crikey...look out for the MIB personage!)  ...(NB: do not get sidetracked by ...munchies !)Although...takes on stores appropriately...  awaits next instructions...as in: how may of these stores should be loaded;  for how long; where to ?

[Dingo1]

Admiral...Ohhh when did you highlight your plumage in silver...

Supplies are being rush aboard as we speak..
Status report.

Engines up and running.  Fresh batch of squirels on treadwheels.


ETA on departure:  Your call.  Just press that little red button labeled "Cepat" on the main chair.

Situation report:  BBC sector.  I have not seen such a huge invasion since SpaceDotCom situation.

[payloadcontroller]

*sits in chair*

All supplies aboard and stowed? Yes? Very well then. Everyone sit down and strap in, or otherwise hang on to something.

*pushes little red button*

[Dingo1]

*Hatches slam into place.  The Alpha1 punches through the hanger bay door at 10,000 gravities, and in 3 seconds reaches cruising speed at .997 light* Ready to engage Warp Speed.  Press the Blue button marked "Ngebut"

[payloadcontroller]

*glances at rear viewscreen*
*sees big hole in spacedock door*

Eh, Orstio isn't gonna like that.
*listens to Kay whisper something in her ear*

Yeah, yeah, I know, you could've told me what it'd do.

*punches blue button*

[Dingo1]

*Rito fusion bombs are feed into the warp drive black hole....the distortions generated surround the ship in a protective cocoon of etherium as the Alpha1 cuts accross the light barrier and races to warp 100.  The backlash causes the surronding area to experence an intence gravity wave that further damages the space-port.*

Admiral Warp speed has been achieved.  I have made a few minor modifications sinse our last cruise, so we should be able to get out of trouble faster than we get into trouble.  Itsy reports that she has been spending the last few years redecorating all of the staterooms

[payloadcontroller]

Itsy...Itsy...do I know Itsy, Dingo? I don't seem to recall any crewman by that name. Who is she, and what exactly has she been doing to the staterooms?
