Legion World Forums LEGION OUTPOST Mission Monitor Board The Office of Security (out with the Lardy, in with the Dev)

Excuse me pool boy? Someone is going to slip with all this water everywhere. Why don't you grab a mop and take care of it?

<throws down two who promptly walk away>

<walks over to Cobalt for a moment>

Not cool to treat Jose like that, Des.

<crouches in close>

Look, man, I felt Roy deserved a chance after all he's done for us recently. Plus, he needs this! Otherwise, he might...stray. You don't want that, do you?

<thinks it over>

I see your point and because you're vouching for him, I feel a lot better about it. All I can say is good luck. Some things you just can't get out of your head and seeing that murder happen right before my eyes has always stuck in my mind. This is your House now, and maybe its things like this that will help shake things up in a good way.

As for that Jose joker, who the heck is that? And why is when I walk by him my spiritual powers are yelling at me to go break his balls?

You don't remember Jose? He's been around the Office for years, man? He's the BEST!

By the way have you ever heard of any "Kree" or "Skrull" before?

Skrull? No, not really.

Kree sounds familiar though. Let me think for a sec...

<racking his brain for an answer>

Aha! Got it! When Mantis was a big part of Legion World and kind of was having flings with both me and Space Ranger she was always talking about some wackiness form her home planet. Which we call Earth-3 by the way. I definitely remember her talking about her history with the Kree. She mentioned several other crazy people and races so Skrull might have been one of the lesser important ones.

I believe on that world they call superheroes "Marvels". That's how I always remember it: the Marvels Universe.

(And Jose, eh? He must have been one of Space Ranger's additions)

Well, Red Arrow over there is either from Earth-3 or something similar to it, I think. She's got a shape-shifter after her who's half-Kree/half-Skrull, she says.

So those races don't exist at all in this universe?

As far as I know, neither exists in explored space. Of course, that hasn't stopped new races from being discovered--or discovering us--before.

I've often wondered what we could do should the Khanate of Sol Invictus or the Dark Oval be pacified and absorbed into the UP. And the first thing I'd do once things calmed down was send explorers into the galaxies beyond them.

<smiles>

Not that I plan on conquering them...tonight anyway

Red Arrow, eh? Is she going to be a Security Officer? She may end up learning to love Legion World once she's saved it a few times. We sure did.

<toasts Lardy's cup>

Yeah, she's really nice. <smiles over at her>

Dunno about the Kree and Skrulls. From what she says, I don't think they're from the far reaches of her galaxy.

Any chance they were among the species that your people wiped out?

<now Cobalt seems really surprised and sits back>

You know, you could very well be right. I'll find out and let you know. I know Ggrrggians had a well known hate for shape-shifters and believed in killing them on sight. Perhaps the Skrulls were a race they wiped out centuries ago and that's the reason for that part of the culture?

I wonder what year Red Arrow thinks it is? That could be a factor.

Red Arrow interrupted, "Oh no! In my universe the Kree and Skrulls were two of the three major powers that were closest to Earth. Their wars lasted for millenium before being solved by a human named Rick Jones. Both species fell on hard times...some Skrulls attempted to invade Earth. My grandfather became a hero in that war. The Kree became ruled by the Inhuman Royal Family and have been thriving at the expense of the Shi'ar. Funny enough, you guys remind me of Shi'ar races I have seen in the Kree Empire."

Red Arrow continued, "Nrrev has been a major concern. He wants to rule the universe and make everyone the same in an attempt to end all conflict. It's sad that it's the year 2029 and these things still happen...but maybe hatred is universal."

The closest foreign powers to us, Emily, are the Dark Oval and the Khanate of Sol Invictus. Neither is comprised particularly of one race.

Obviously, history can evolve quite differently in alternate realities.

Hm. I wonder if these "Skrull" are essentially the same race as our Durlans, fiven the similarities. And the Kree...a little like Ggrrggians, maybe?

"I don't know about that. In my universe there is alot of racial and ethical tension...but I thought that is a problem in all universes. I know that Nrrev was hardened by his youth in refugee camps. He has a very powerful weapon known as the Cosmic Cube. Does that mean anything to you?" Red Arrow explained.

I've never heard of it. Cobalt?

<looks at the gang, then turns to the Chief.>

I've had fun, but I gotta start early tomorrow trailing you know who, so I gotta turn in.

Besides Jon Em is "fixing" the car, so I better make sure it's safe for the wife to use tomorrow.

<Looks at Red Arrow>

Jon's my 2 year old son who can take apart and fix just about anything mechanical. My daughter, Han Em is 9 and can befriend and communicate with any animal we've met so far.

<Looks back to the Chief>
somethings wrong though
I'm not sure what's going on,, but I'm gonna send Furball in to check out all of the guests here. See ya later.

<Furball walks around the party taking in the scents of all of the guests.>

Cosmic Cube? Wish I had. If I haven't heard of it, you can bet it's new to our universe.

<awakes from his Rum & Chum induced stupor>

Ugh, my mouth tastes like a cat took a du-- oh hey, everybody ... didn't realize the pool-party was still on ...

<spies Furball>

Hey Furball, how you doin'?

<turns back to Red Arrow>

Well, as you can see, Emily, there are lots of differences btween our universe and yours. I'm gonna follow up on Kree and Skrull and see if they're listed anywhere in our histories. There's a chance that they may have existed at some point and been eradicated by Cobalt's people or something. Or maybe they're just called something else here.

If either exist or existed in our universe, it would help us track down the guy who's after you.

Meanwhile, you'll be safe at the Security Office. Heck, if you want to arrange a demonstration of your arrowing skills, we may have a place for you among our Elite Guard, if you're interested, that is.

Have you got trick arrows? I LOVE trick arrows! Especially boxing-glove arrows!

"Yeah...Nrrev he wouldn't care if his people existed in this universe or not. The reason he wanted the Cosmic Cube is so that he could redo history...make so that only one planet in the universe had life and they all looked Half-Skrull, Half-Kree. If he followed me here that means he failed in my dimension and wants to try again." Red Arrow explained.

"I may try out. And yes I have trick arrows, just please do not ask for atomic arrows." She stated.

He may not care if his people existed here, true. But if we can trace his gentetic code with samples from our universe, we may be able to detect him if he's in disguise on Legion World.

Atomic arrows?

Red Arrow was beginning to settle in. She would take care of close matters first and go from there. The party reminded her of good times with the Thunderbolts. The parties at that grill called Street Levelers United were just as crazy. You never knew when Deadpool would decide to retheme the place as a sushi bar or an ice cream parlor. Red Arrow didn't like her ex-boyfriend becase he grew distant from humanity, even seemed to look down at the world. She preferred street-levelers and enjoyed being one.

She asked Anthony, "Since you lost your powers, have you began fighting or weapons training?"

While Hot Chick enjoyed the freedom this design gives her telepathic breasts, in the end we decided the look was too Vampirella...

Thunder Girl, however, has no problem showing skin. In fact, she pretty much can't help it. Although she insists her uniform be a slimming black color.

The diamond LW security logo thingie is something I'm playing around with...

those are some mighty pontoons ... I'm afraid when she jumps in the pool, all the water is gonna go out ...

Her spagetti straps are made out of inertron.
