Europa Undivided wrote:The Bunker, as explained by Ward when everyone was safe and warm inside, was one of many fallout shelters built by the United States back during the Cold War. This one never fell out of use, though; it had served as a fallback place in the case of an extinction level event as well as a military facility. When the Ragons obliterated the remnants of the Earth space fleet that attempted to hold the line in orbit, Scharnhorst and its escorts, the Greek destroyers Nafkratousa and Matrozos, all crash landed within 50 kilometers of the bunker. The personnel stationed in the bunker at the time had already brought in the nearby town's population, and those who survived the crash landing got in as well. Ward himself was a mechanical engineer aboard a science ship that made planet fall some 100 kilometers away; it took him several months of hiding before he was found by one of the roving scouts of the bunker, who were looking both for supplies and survivors in the vicinity.
The one leading the bunker's denizens was a certain Alexios Stavros, the highest ranking officer that survived the crash. He was rather old, with hair that was almost completely grey. Still, he had a imposing presence in any of the rooms that he was in, including the one where those who claimed that they were going to save the world.
"Alright.", Stavros said to the people that had just come out of nowhere. "I see that you are on a mission to make the planet free of the pesky lizards. This is the first time that we had... visitors in the last two years. So,", he crossed his legs. "If that is true, I will help you in any way I can. But, names, and please elaborate on this plot of yours..."

"Actually.", Nicholas interjected as he stepped into the room, clutching a wrench and wearing a head mounted magnifier that was used by watchmakers. "Using a wormhole for time travel isn't the craziest thing in the universe." It would be apparent that he was accompanied by Andy, though the latter stayed on the doorframe, tinkering with his broken down drone. It looked like Nicholas was the one that was capable of fixing it, given that he was an engineer.
The man with the very marked London cockney accent sat down beside his commanding officer with a very relaxed posture, though he didn't cross his legs, unlike Stavros. "Wormholes have been the best bet for time travel ever since their discovery in the 21st century, as they connect two points in space time. So,", he said as he used his hands to make a visual gesture of two points. " Theoretically, wormholes can be used to travel through time. Navigating is what is hard... though I trust that your resident egghead knows what he or she is doing."
Stavros glanced at Ward once before looking back at Hannah and Davin. "Whatever the big brain Brit said.", the Greek simply nodded at both of them. You can stay here for the night, or maybe as long as you need. It looks like...", he glanced at the man in the doorframe, and then back at Ward. "... two long separated friends have a lot to catching up to do. Also, I've seen the look on the IDF lady's face. We're not... you know, neo-confederate or anything. I just thought that the passcode should be something no one will expect."... provided we can repair the transponder in time
Ward then brought up the broken transponder, his eyes filled with nerdish glee. "As for that broken Transponder, it seems you have come to the right man. If it works similarly to the ones we humans use, I should be able to fix it... though figuring it out will take a bit more time."

"I was hoping it would convince you that the machine works," West gave a wry chuckle, "But I suppose I have been underground a long time. There is a practical application for it, but we can get to that later. First though we'll need to decide on who is going to make the journey and make sure that that person has memories all the information they need to make sure that this invasion never happens. We have a whole archive room full of information on the 2026 expedition, so whomever is going to make the jump will need to immerse themselves in it. Really get to know the people from back then, Nathaniel Carter, Dana Chrichton, Phoenix Williams and so on. These are the people you'll need to convince to do things differently."

"One, I took history lessons very seriously and I know the notable Destiny crewmembers beyond a casual description. Second, Professor al-Zubi here is the only person that is the closest thing to family that Rebecca has."
"Man-"
"No, I've made up my mind. What do we need to do, Dr. West?"

West prattled nervously, turning to Andy, "04051920091425. Think you can remember that? 040-519-200-914-25. I'm going to give you a box with the critical information you'll need to locate the expedition and hopefully convince them that listen to you.
The number needs to be a long one. Who knows what could happen if the wrong people got their hands on that!"

Europa Undivided wrote:"Oui, Doctor.", Jean-Luc said from behind the two of them. "We'll do just that. Ivan?"
"Da.", the Russian replied as he took a moment with Hannah, giving her a hug as this might as well be their last moments. "Hannah... promise me that you will live on, whether or not something happens to me. Okay?"
by Europa Undivided » Sun Oct 04, 2020 7:44 am
Hannah returned the hug, but then punched Ivan in the arm when he stepped back. Not hard enough to do any real damage but hard enough to feel, "Don't act like this is the end. I'm coming with you."

Europa Undivided wrote:"First of all.", Andy croaked as he was still pinned against the wall with Davin's telekinetic powers. "Tariq is not... a bloody Arab. He's Assyrian. And second... go to hell, you traitor." Despite facing such overwhelming power, he was still defiant, and seeing Davin snap Dr. West's neck didn't help that at all. Instead, if Davin had wanted to induce fear in him, that had just produced the opposite effect. Seeing as how the person that they had brought out of the wreckage of a spaceship was, after all this time, a traitorous meta-human turned to a living weapon by the Ragon, Andy only spat on the ground. "Congratulations, you wanker. You just successfully played everyone, boo hoo. Now you want to remake humanity in your image, blah blah blah, wow, that's so generic..."
He coughed. He was still being piledriven against the wall, after all.
"I know that they are biomechanical, you deluded son of a bitch.", Andy growled. "Why else would an insectoid creature have clearly artificial metal as stingers..."
It didn't take much to put the pieces together, seeing as how Hannah was the only one that was bitten by the blood locusts back when they first encountered the Defiance Battalion. If the bugs were sampling blood from people in an effort to seek out a hybrid descendant, then...
"Can't be... Hannah Brown?"

"Do you think she knows the Ragons are here for her?"
"Ivan!" she called across the din of fighting, motioning frantically for him to join her, more because of the comfort of his presence than any tactical advantage, "If you watch my back, I can watch yours."

She flicked the button again, turning back to Andy, "The plan is shit, but it was the best I could think of right now. Grab your rifle, we need to help them."
"After me?" she asked of the air, "What the hell? Why? How would she know that?"
"If you fall back to the doorway, do you think you can cover me when I run back?" she asked, "Guess Rebecca's plan is the best we have."
