Poo was not sure how he felt about this.

He did not like not knowing how to feel about this.

He was sneaking out just before sunrise into a highly guarded Space airport, alone and without permission. He did not even pack a bag, wearing only his tattered cloak, karate uniform and sword of kings sheathed hidden underneath.

What he did know, however, was that he was being propelled by a sense of urgency; that something was apparently a world-saving request and apparently a calling by his name, according to Lash. He would not turn it down, if nothing else than to simply experience the adventure.

Luckily a path was already carved for him by Lash, which he followed from the shadows. He would... for the time being, wait for the others to arrive before making his presence known. Or perhaps someone would spot him perched on top of the lamp post, cloak fluttering in the wind.

Poo wasn't the only one unsure of how to feel about all this.

On the one hand, it was exciting! Jeff had been to space (finally!) and knew just how amazing the view was, and that this provided ample opportunity to do even more exploring. On the other hand, this was apparently a situation of Dire Peril.

It was strange... He, Paula, and Poo had all been beckoned to save the universe once again, but where was Ness during all this? It felt really weird to have one less person... even if the group amounted to more than four anyway, what were they without the one Jeff naturally looked up to as a leader?

How Jeff got to the airport is best left to the imagination, but it probably involved the Skyrunner. THE POINT IS HE WAS THERE, OKAY. It wasn't long before he joined Lash's side, clutching at his duffel bag filled with small explosives and a few trash snacks.

Oh boy, breaking the law! He was back to being thrilled and scared shitless again. "Hey," he whispered, glancing over his shoulder.

"Hey." she whispered back quickly, still punching buttons. "You should see the security they have here. It's an outright joke. They only have four checks before I was able to get in! Piece of cake."

Lash paused and glanced around.

"You're the first to arrive." she explained, giving him the hacking device, and pointing to the 3D models. "I found three ships whose captains either seem to be missing in action, or have not been used for the past month. I thought you might want to look at them, since you'll probably end up driving whatever you pick."

Maxwell arrived a little after Jeff. Somewhere off in the bushes, a fixed up bike had been hidden with a cat left to guard it. He didn't appear to have much with him, but who knew what sort of surprises were hiding in that coat of his.

It didn't take too long to find the pair. He approached with a certain amount of apprehension, which was mostly the norm. There was no way this was legal... But there was also no way that Maxwell was about to let them run off unsupervised now that he knew about it.

And, well. Going back to space was certainly a tempting deal.

His attempts at being sneaky and quiet were undoubtedly noticeable, so he simply waved slightly in front of himself when he got near them.
