"That sounds fantastic. I'll notify the Lwtaqra I'll be here long term."
He walks into the lift and looks around.
"This better not be one of those elevators that play the bloody music. Nah, I'm only joking. My superiors don't like it when I do that, but they can't see me right now."

The elevator shoots upwards at high speeds before shuddering to a stop...not at the planned destination.
The building shakes and the Paladin scans the area suddenly.
"That was not supposed to happen."

The captain has his fingers on his earpiece.
"I'm not getting any signal."
He tries the other ear, and then some buttons on his wrist.

The building shakes again.
The Paladin thrusts his hardlight glaive into a seam in the wall, opening up a maintenance tube.
"We must leave this lift at once."

"I would say so yeah."
Gestures for you to go first.
"Homeworlders fist."

The Ambassador and Paladin exit the lift.
"It would seem that we have more pressing matters to attend to than showing you to your quarters."
The sharp crack of a particle beam can be heard through the walls of the building.

He follows him out.
"Either gun fire or a Qaen medical system. Unlikely though. Damn."

The Paladin glances at the captain.
"Weapons fire, not PGR in design."
The Ambassador and Paladin reach the landing pad the Tanderra is on and look into the skies.
The sky is dark, lit by fires and weapons fire, large ships of unknown origin float through the sky.
"By the stars, no."

The captain is spamming a bright red button on the bottom of his wrist. It statics and then beeps, to which the captain leans into his wrist and says loudly,
"Engage hostiles on planet surface. Do not miss. Arm Minor Exploration ships. Hello? Shullusa?"

The Ambassador runs to the Tanderra, opening the ship's loading ramp and urgently motioning for the captain to board the ship.
"We must leave!"

He runs toward the ship and enters, saving the 'homeworlders first' routine for later. The peacekeepers are in the ship sitting and talking about how hot it is outside.
"You two left your posts, I'm disappointed."

The Tanderra's loading ramp closes and the ships lifts off, almost instantly gunning it for orbit.
"I had hoped this day would never come."

"You know you would be attacked?"

"This has happened before, many millennia ago."
The Tanderra reaches orbit and is tractor beamed into the hangar of the Sonic Rainboom.

Off in the distance the Lwtaqra can be seen, releasing combat drones off of its outer shell and into the atmosphere. As if his helmet goes to a speaker mode, the voice of QUALIA fills the room.
\"I have taken control of the grade seven Exploration Observation vessel Lwtaqra. If the combat proves threatening to the lives in stasis aboard reinforcements are standing by. Captain Kyenagh Ywal is asked to return to the grade seven Exploration Observation vessel Lwtaqra when convenient. Good day ambassador."\
"Sorry. Can't control her."
