( ROGUE PLANET – Northern hemisphere )
Utan wanted for the foreigners to leave with their incapacitated friend and allow them to proceed with their plans undisturbed. However, like insects nest, once poked, it hardly stays calm. Right now it was a matter of knowing if they’ll act defensively or offensively.
Kol'Mana: If we capture them we could lock them away, Keep them from our shipment. The planet itself would deal with them.
Utan considered, but leaving them in a position where they can’t defend themselves from the dangers of the environment was a way to provoke their companions.
Utan: No, we need to know who they, how many and what they want.
A sigh, a clear sign of impatience. Ze expected that from she.
Kol'Mana: Must we? We have already dealt with those ‘Pak-led’ peoples and they were as slow as a slime-krnol. These creature-people head back to their metal wedge, hopefully to leave. We could scare them and make them leave.
Utan: I don’t know… they seemed more intelligent. The way they’re scanning, how they reacted with their colleague… I feel they’ll be persistent.
Kol’Mana: Then a trap. I have the snares we use for catching chron-tak. If we set them by the geyers, the natural energy flow will enhance the strength and range of the field.
She held up one of the shiny metal discs she kept in her pack. Utan could agree that that was a more,… restrained solution.
Utan: That… might be aceptable.
Kol’Mana: If they retreat I will set up the trap. We can lure them to the correct spot.
Utan: From what I was able to see, they’re worried about the other. So I guess they’ll bring him to safety. Maybe to their transport… we can set them up a few decapeds out of their position. You aren’t planning to hurt them unnecesarily, right?
Kol’Mana: No, once they are caged you should talk. I care not what the reasons for the creature-people to come here. They are here where our territory is already marked. They are invaders.
Utan: Right. They are,… You get them trapped, I’ll get them talking.
Kol’Mana: Response
Utan: Everyone does what everyone’s fit for. Any word from the others?
Kol’Mana: Response
Utan: We’ll check with them while on route. Prepare the snares.
Kol’Mana: Response
