Insane Cafe 4: The Insane Frontier

Jason thought for a moment. "As for the location of the Insane Cafe and or the Phoenix, I can call scan with my tardis sensors to see if I can pick it up, Norad or UNIT to see if they have any information. As for the life support belts, I can spare 9. I always have extra spares. Never know when spares will come in handy. I"ll be right back." He went to his tardis.

"I guess no is best a time as any if you still want the vacuum support spell on you." Sara said. "Or will the life support belts be enough?"

Darwin nodded to Jason with what he had just said in regards to scanning that as he turned to Stripetail by that point "What is it that you are wanting us to do anyway?"

"Good call Darwin" Aimee looked to Streiptail as well "I take it until your friend there" she spoke, motioning to Jason "Finds either the Insane Cafe, or the Phoenix, we're just on standby?"

Riley however, just scoffed lightly "Fine, if that's all we're going to do, then I am going to go and get some sleep, I have not slept in over 24 hours" shetold Stripetail in particular before she turned and headed off for their spaceship and entered it in order to get herself some sleep.

Jason came out with Guilmon, both were holding some life support belts and he had some bits of paper as well. Sara finished with her enchant spell as the 2 of them walked up to where the living planes and the others were.

"I have the life support belts here. Also I did some scanning and found where the Phoenix is and printed out the coordinates." Jason said. "Now which of you wants the life support belts put on first?" He asked looking at the various living planes present.

Serris · **Reply #304 on:** November 19, 2011, 05:56:39 PM

The Pelvenida Group boarded the shuttles.

------------------

"We'll try the life support belts," Major Lockie said. "All we need is oxygen for our engines to burn."

"I'll go first," Lt. Martin said as she rolled up to Jason. Her air intake was located just beneath and behind her snout, making it easily accessible for repairs and cleaning. Unfortunately, that meant that she was prone to ingesting debris, which could destroy her engine. Thankfully, a special grate was installed to prevent such mishaps. "Attach the belt about two feet inside my air intake."

"Get a ladder or something," Captain Fairchild said with a yawn. "You'll need it to install the life support belts on myself or Major Lockie."

Nick22 · **Reply #305 on:** November 19, 2011, 06:43:04 PM

Tarrax Spyro Cynder Dulcxy ans Samia climbed on the first settled. Arlene Kitty and Tiger climbed on the second. Bart lilo nani and shaggy.vitani moved over to make room for the newcomers on the second shuttle. soon all of Stripetail's team had aboard the shuttled. " everypones onm Stripetail called out. you can take us to the ship..

Kor · **Reply #306 on:** November 19, 2011, 11:59:42 PM

Sara got into the same one that Tarrax got into, if there was room. Otherwise she'd go with Jason and his friends.

"It's ok, I can use the legion flight ring to fly in my original body. I always keep it on. Or this one, but it's not had a charge in thousands or maybe nearly a million years, more or less." Jason said reaching in to briefly hold up a greenish looking ring before putting it away and going to start to put the life support belts into Lt Martin in the place she indicated, making sure it was in the proper place she had said then activated it. Then he went to where Captain Fairchild & Major Lockie were.

"You two ready?" He asked, Guilmon walking over holding the other belts since Jason could only hold so many and install them.

Nick22 · **Reply #307 on:** November 20, 2011, 12:06:54 AM

Tarrax made room for Sara and the shuttle was now filled to capacity. So what is this um spaceship like? kovu asked " we';ve never been anyewhere but firmly on the ground.. " you'll just have to see like the rest of us Arlene replied, looking up at the much larger cat. I'm Arlene , by the way I'm one of Dixues friends..

Serris · **Reply #308 on:** November 20, 2011, 12:12:25 AM

Major Lockie and Captain Fairchild nodded.

"Insert them about a foot away from the fan blades," Captain Fairchild said.

"Actually, you may want to try something else," Major Lockie said. "The air intake for my engines are behind my props and accessing them is a little difficult. Or you could attach the belts right on the prop shaft that juts out from the middle of my engines."

Rainbow yawned, much to the amusement of everyone present. "Yeah, when you're done installing the upgrades on those two, I'm next. Just install them two feet or so inside my air intakes - there's one on each side."

Captain Carson watched as everyone boarded the shuttle. "Tell us when you are finished and we'll take off together."

chong and hailey were now less than 24 hours away from reaching the Phoenix.. chong was bored and tried to get some sleep. in his dreams he dreamed of subjecting Nick and Aves to the worst torments his fiendiush mind could concoct..

Jason nodded & started putting the life support belts in the place indicated by Captain Fairchild. He double checked the placement of each life support belt before he activated it & made sure it was working before he went to place in the second one and did the same as before. Once he was sure he was fully done with Captain Fairchild he then went to Major Lockie.

"Hmm." Jason thought a moment of what Major Lockie said. "I think it may be best to put the life support belts onto the prop shafts directly. They can cover the props and air intakes, with just minor adjustments at most." Jason said, getting started on that. Doing like before, double checking the placement before he did adjusted a setting on the belt then activated the first life support belt, checking that then going to the second one.

Finished with Major Lockie he then went to get started on placing the life support belts on Rainbow where she had said. Doing the same proceedure as before, he would double test the placement, activate the first belt and be sure before placing the second one.

Then he stepped away from the planes. " I think I'm all finished." He said. Then to Guilmon, "Thanks for you help, no way I could have carried all those myself and done the work while trying to carry them all."

"Would have been hard." Guilmon said, standing next to Jason.

Serris · **Reply #311 on:** November 21, 2011, 02:57:41 AM

"We're done," Captain Fairchild said.

Captain Carson nodded as she and her men boarded their shuttles. Their repulsorlifts hummed to life and they slowly climbed into the sky.

The four living planes followed.

Nick22 · **Reply #312 on:** November 21, 2011, 04:29:26 PM

The spire of Winter was waiting in as low-Earth orbit. the ship was unlike anything most of the passengers had ever seen. theres were a large set of eyeballs staring out at the ship as the transport got closer and closer to docking with it. "Once we get on board the captain will brief us about the ship and show us to our chambers Stripetail said " Then i will explai to all of you what our mission will be..

Serris · **Reply #313 on:** November 21, 2011, 05:34:45 PM

Mr. Bigmouth looked out the window at the Spire of Winter. His eyes widened as he took in how massive it was - it appeared to be size of Surf Point - if not bigger.

The massive ship lazily drifted 110 miles above the Earth.

---------------------

The transports then entered through a large hatch in the top of the ship and flew through a well lit metal tunnel. Landing lights in the form of electric blue lines on the wall pulsed in a steady rhythm as the transports flew to the hangars.

---------------------

Captain Fairchild and his two companions were still lagging behind the powerful shuttlecraft.

Unfortunately, Major Lockie had only managed to make it to about 40,000 feet - already 10,000 feet above his service ceiling and only thanks to zoom climbing. Unfortunately, his great size and slow flying speed meant that he now had to slowly glide back to the ground and try some other tactics.

Captain Fairchild managed to make it to about 55,000 feet, again, using the same zoom climb tactic that Major Lockie used. Unfortunately, he could no longer climb higher and he had to slowly glide back to the ground.

Rainbow looked at Lt. Martin, both fighter planes comfortably soared past 60,000 feet. They had no problem conversing in the rarified air thanks to the fact they did not need oxygen to live - only to move at high speeds.

"So you wanna race to see who can break Galena AFB's record for highest zoom climb?" Rainbow asked.

Lt. Martin sighed. "You hold that record! 100,000 feet!"

"Well, I'm going to break it!"

With that said, Rainbow lit her afterburners and accelerated to Mach 2.5. Even though her breed of aircraft could only reach Mach 2.15, her engines had been replaced with much more powerful ones. She then pulled into a climb that so steep, that an organic pilot would have blacked out.

"..." Lt. Martin followed suit. Even though her engines were normal for an aircraft of her breed, she wanted to try. She had only done a zoom climb once before, on a solo performance with the Silverbolts. She lit her afterburners, accelerated somewhere beyond Mach 2 and pulled into a steep climb.

Anyone watching would have seen an amazing sight - two sleek fighter jets flying nearly vertical on full afterburners and the cloudy blue plains of the Earth below and the ink-black space above them.

---------------------

When Major Lockie reached his normal flight ceiling of 30,000 feet, he radioed Stripetail. "Stripetail, this is Major Lockie, Captain Fairchild and I are having some trouble keeping up with the shuttles. Even while zoom climbing, we couldn't break 50,000 feet. I'm not sure what Rainbow and Lt. Martin can do but they aren't spacecraft so I doubt they'll be able to follow the shuttle.

Jason and Guilmon, and his other friends who were still outside, went into his tardis.

"Looks like the planes are having some trouble getting into space." Brooklyn said looking at one of the auxiliary view screens.

"if need be we could use our tractor beam." Jason said. "The tardis certainly has no troubles flying in the air or space so could tractor beam them into orbit if needed." He said.

Nick22 · **Reply #315 on:** November 21, 2011, 07:40:08 PM

Jason has a tractor beam in his tardis. radio him and ask him to beam you up and steer you into the hatch, the hatch has enough air inside of it for you tpo move and land on your own. this ship is huge probably 750-1000 sq miles in area..so theres plenty of room for you t move around in..
-
the shuttles docked and openned allowing the passengers to climb off. kopa looked aroundin amazement ' i think we are the first lions in space' he said to kiara and vitani, who were gazing around at the surroundings..

MrDrake · **Reply #316 on:** November 21, 2011, 07:44:48 PM

Aimee entered their spaceship and woke Riley up "Wake up, we're heading off"

"Ugh, I just got to sleep, but fine, where to?" Rley asked as she stretch andgot up, heading to the front of the small ship.

"We're following the others back into space" Aimee replied back as Darwin and Jackson got on.

Riley nodded back as she started up the engine and took off. It wasn't even all that long before they saw the ship "Huh, that's one hell of a spaceship" Riley spoke as she navigated closer to the Spirit of Winter as well.

Nick22 · **Reply #317 on:** November 21, 2011, 07:49:03 PM

Stripetail climbed out his shuttle, followed by Dulcy, Samia tarrax sara and bart. Scooby and Dixie were nextt folowed by the rest of the Omniderate.
Its cold up here : lilo said. ' have you been in space before/ bart asked " A couple times, but that was to go after Stitch. ' Stitch and Angel were used to space as were Ratchet Clank and Angela. the rest of the team, however were not, so those five would help lead meeting thatwould happen once they got to thier rooms..

Serris · **Reply #318 on:** November 21, 2011, 11:35:42 PM

Rainbow had broken her previous record but it was still not enough to reach the spacecraft.

When she reached 124,673 feet, all of her speed from the zoom climb had bled off.

She then radioed Brooklyn. "Brooklyn, this is Rainbow, I have reached my absolute altitude. I will gather the others and then I request assistance to the starship. Over."

She then shut off her engines and proceeded to enter freefall.

----------

Lt. Martin's climb of 94,562 feet was impressive as well but as wither her friend, she was eventully forced to fly back down

-----------

Captain Carson waited until all the cargo was unloaded from the shuttles.

She then cleared her throat. "Welcome aboard the long range colony ship RIMCS Spire of Winter. I am Sharon Carson, captain of this fine ship," she said.

Several laborers loaded the luggage onto repulsorsleds.

"Your quarters are located in the town of Winterville. The route will be clearly marked."

Deimos held up a hand. "This place has a f---ing town!?"

Captain Carson seemed nonplussed. "Yep, we found that having a town with cafes, trees, grass, artificial weather and even some vegetable plots substantially improves morale. You'll meet the other 9,000 or so inhabitants there."

With thatbsaid, Captain Carson walked out a hallway and headed to the bridge.

Nick22 · **Reply #319 on:** November 21, 2011, 11:57:27 PM

well we might as well head out to winterville' Stripetail said. a placard read winterville 2 miles to the right.. " so its two miles that way.. " lets head out everyone.. we can take the sleds i would think. those who want to fly, can do so, as the ceiling looks high enough to allow flight by planes.
