As the pod slowly descends to the barren surface the crew worriedly calls back to Earth. 'Yes Penguin lander 1?" "The wreckage and astronauts are gone. There's many pairs of footsteps leading to area that looks like multiple landing zones". "Over, how long will your air reserves last? Approximately 1 day." Affirmative, bring your rations and tp-82's, follow them." "Setting phasers to stun mode!" "Shut up Carol!" The astronauts nervously say as they step out of their pod and begin following the footsteps.

"Hey Christina" Frederick said, "I just realized something I was thinking about when you were asking all the questions" "What was it" "I just remembered what my father said before about me being adopted from MomoCarlile, something felt recognizable from the start of them coming to us" "That's great, but what does that do for us" "I don't know, but I will tell the next one of them about it"

(They have a moon buggy) "Houston, we have a problem". "Shut up Carol! What carol meant to say was we've been following the footsteps for around 352 meters now and we've come across a large circle like object in ground. It appears to have moved recently as the dust around it is disturbed and the footsteps have led here." "Over, try and drill into it." "Ok I guess" the astronauts nervously reply as they pull a drill off of the buggy and begin drilling.

The soldiers of Sekhmet emerge from another hatch some distance from the main one they had used before.
"Would you mind telling us why we are out again Elizabeth?"
"There are people on our base. This is the only time I will ever say it, but George be an alien. Everybody else just look intimidating."
They walked around a nearby crater and approached the two astronauts. Walking up behind them, the largest of the soldiers began to speak in a series of clicks and hissing while the others surrounded the two astronauts.

The astronauts stop drilling as they notice the strange figures surrounding them. "I'm going to shoot them!" "NO CAROL!" Bill manages to say before smacking the tp-82 out of Carols hands. "Umm, hello. I'm BIll and this is Carol. We've come here for the missing astronauts, please don't kill us. They begin slowly backing up to the rover before realizing it had been leaking fuel after the landing and was now completely empty.

(note: only the rover is out fuel, pod to get back to station is fueled up but way out of walking distance.) "Ummm, KLINGON'S!" "Shut up Carol! Sorry, thanks for you know, not killing us and all. We were drilling here because it seems the astronauts from Tiepoa have led here, have you seen them? Also have any fuel, hehe, he,...."

(Note: I know but the characters don't because they don't see the rocket anywhere)
"Fuel? No. But you are welcome to wait with the others if you like."
They slowly descended once more into the base.

Re-Write time The Space Ironclad Thunderchild, was in orbit around the moon. Armed with 3 dual 12 inch Gun turrets (1 fore, 1 aft, 1 on the underside of the vessel) it was the only remaining vessel of the Victory class ironclads, the first class of spaceships built by the fleet of oceans. Now hopelessly obsolete compared to the Warspite class Space Dreadnoughts, the Thunderchild is related to guarding the lunar space outpost. The outpost is monitoring the frequency's around the moon, with transmissions for momosan star empire, and the Antarctican Republic transmissions flying backward and forward. Suddenly there was a bright burst of light and the Armored Cruiser Olympia dropped out of warp. The Olympia is far more modern than Thunderchild, armed with 6 dual 8 inch wave motion (2 fore (top and bottom) 2 mid (top and bottom) 2 rear (top and bottom)) and instead of rocket thrusters has antimatter drives. The captain of the Thunderchild hailed the new arrival. "Greetings Olympia, i'm surprised to see you out here. You're usually based around mars aren't you." "Well yes usually we are but we were re-ordered over here to guard the outpost, you know with whole space race thing." "Oh yes that, well are we getting any other reinforcements?" "Well the pocket battleship Graf Spee should join us tomorrow, as soon as she's down with her refit." "Right I'll look forward to her arrival." With that the com link closed and the Olympia took position in a line above formation (which mean ships one on top of the other) with Olympia above Thunderchild. The outposts automated 15 inch gun batteries come online as well and fire blank shells. Finally the the drone rescue shuttles came online ready to rescue anyone in trouble.
They didn't have to wait long, over the radio intercept channels came reports that the lander belonging to the Antarctican republic is out of fuel. A message came in over the tachyon radio transmitter. "The admiral (my leaders title) has requested that the fleet oilier ocean paradise be put on standby, if necessary it will descended to surface to refuel the lander. However we currently requesting clearance to use the Orient express class land train to refuel the lander, from the momosan star empire. Their our allies so it should be OK but we'll see what they say." In the interior of the defense station the land train is being prepared. The land train is actually a prototype of the P1000 ratte that was cut into three sections then reassembled like a gigantic lunar bendy bus. Currently the central piece is filled with rocket fuel and oxidizer for the lander if the momosan star empire gave the go-ahead. All we needed was one signal.
(Momocarlile could you oblige)

"Sir, we're being hailed."
"What?" General Arthur spun around and looked at the monitor.
"Oh, just send the go ahead. They can do whatever, but watch em."

With Go ahead received the Land train fired up its reactor. It then released from the station and pushed away with gravity anchors. Slowly but surely it began to gather speed as it fell towards the lunar surface, then when it was 200 meters away a wave of grav energy radiated outwards from the craft slowing it so that it touched down gentlemen on the lunar surface. "This is the orient express, touch down successful all systems green." "Roger orient. Proceed with your mission. Lunar outpost out." "OK boys this is standard mission with no bad guys should be a cake walk, MOVE OUT!" With that the 1000 ton vehicle rumbled into motion and began trundling across the lunar surface like a heavy metal snake. An hour passed and they approached the momosan base section. They hailed them "This is the orient express calling Lunar Module Mike-99459-Alpha do you copy over." All the bridge crew crowded round as they awaited a reply.
(I thought it would good to give the stranded astronauts a lift back to the capsule so that'a why I'm hailing, i jsut didn't want to write for momocarlile)
