Mustaffa looked at her, frowning. "Once we find a proper place to set up camp we will fortify ourselves. The creatures might be able to withstand most weapons but they cannot get across a great gap, they are too large to jump very far. We will send for machines to build ourselves a fortress."

Mustaffa's communicator buzzed with a call from Whitemoon. "Guardian my tracers registered heavy weapons fire from your guns, is everyone alright down there?"

"We ran into trouble, but it was taken care of." He shot Arlea a grateful glance. "Send for heavy building machinery, we will need to fortify ourselves if we are to live on this planet. There are dinosaur-like lifeforms, they are able to withstand most firearms. I will see what effect a full charge from the energy rifle has next time we run into one, other than that I will have to rely on explosives."

"Hmm, they may be able to stand your small and heavy weapons fire, but I don't think that any life form we have ever encountered has been able to survive a sustained blast form the ship canons." The Commander told him, "As for the fortifications, the transport itself will be able to deploy into a fully-functional fortress, just find a place for us to land it and hold that position for two days. Over." The communicator clicked off as Whitemoon got back to... whatever the hell he was doing.

There is nothing in the forest clearing except plans, moss and fallen foliage. the space is actually a bit bigger than you would need to land the ship, and the denizens of the forest don't appear to be hostile towards you... at least, not yet.

Arlea collected her portable tunnel tent and waited to see where the others placed theirs before securing her place right in the middle.  She released the cord and dropped the case as the tent began to unfurl, inflate and arrange itself.  Within 8 seconds the tent was set up and fully operational.  She pressed the camoflage icon and watched as the dark blue skin took on the grey stone color of the rock they were on.  Within a minute her tent looked like a large rock.

Arlea crawled inside and unfurled her tool belt, checked its contents and rolled it back up.  She checked the magazine on both handguns and emerged from her tent.  "Now to lay some traps and alarms", she said to herself.  She heaved her kit bag onto her back and glancing at the Guardian, she indicated her departure, picking up a transceiver and waving it at him.  She walked out of the camp, trying not to think of what creatures she may run into.

Mustaffa noticed the woman leaving, but as he couldn't leave the entire group he would simply hope she could handle herself while laying the traps. He was making giant spikes from drywood, pinning them in the ground against anything large that might wish to enter the camp. It would not keep them away but at least slow them enough for him to react.

It took Arlea three hours to lay the traps, mines and trigger lines ... completely encircling the camp, but at a sufficient distance to give them plenty of warning at anything approching.  By the time she packed up her equipment, it was already dark.  She marked every position on her PDA.  And made her way back to the camp.  She could smell the aroma's of the food that was being cooked, which made her hungry, but also made her worry what else could pick up this scent.

As she got closer to the camp and could hear their voices clearly, she was quite amazed at the perimeter wall that had been erected.

Fallen logs, foliage and many rocks had been erected in a wall to face the plains, for the most part. All the clearing but a small tunnel into the fort for Arlea to get into is walled off, though most of it isn't more than waist-high.

Mustaffa has mounted some of his bigger guns on tripods, though he is still holding his energy cannon. A few of the small lizards have come back into the clearing, and are looking around curiously, but from the direction the plains lay, there is no sound.

Arlea feels a small lizard crawl up her leg and perch on her shoulder, where it curls up contentedly.

Alex can feel the forest around him pulsing with life, and finds much to his surprise that his psychic powers are enhanced since entering the forest. You figure that this must also have been true in the other forest, but your nerves were too high-strung to notice. Your powers are so enhanced, that you can feel the plains creatures around the camp, though they must be half a mile away... and closing.

Mustaffa finished putting up his main turret on an elevation in the middle of the camp. The turret would be able to fire several explosive rounds each second, enough to take down major army vehicles. "I'd like to see them get past this badboy." he said, keeping watch over the crew.

- Seems that this forest is a psionic amplifier. Natural or not. It would take years of hard training to achieve such level.- Alex said to the recorder module in his wrist computer.- The forest is full of lifeforms, however due to the dense presence of them I'm unable to determine if there are any sentinent beings here. No signs of any extinct civilizations yet either. I'm concluding that it's just a primitive feral world.- Alex turned off the recorder.
- Better keep your goons near the guns. Some of the lizards are come and I don't think they're friendly.- He said to Mustaffa and grabbed his head as if facepalming.

Arlea turned to the creature at first with revulsion, yet quickly became rather surprised at the creature's aplomb.  It has climbed up her leg, along her back and onto her shoulder where it now sat observing her with what would only be described as consumate self assurance.  It made Arlea chuckle at its boldness.

The creature had been an amazingly nondescript taupe color as it made its ascent to Arlea's shoulders.  Now it had changed to a beautiful pearlescent silver turquoise (or something like that).  She breathed on it very slightly and watched in excited amazement, when the creatures skin glistened and turned a bright amethyst before returning back to turquoise.

"Well little fella, I think its about time you taught us a few things about this place here", she said to the lizard like creature.  And lifting her hand up, slowly and gently ran her finger along its back.  The creature didn't shy away from her touch, but made a faint clicking noise and flashed amethyst again.  Without realizing it, Arlea was smiling.  She noted that the lizard's skin was warm and highly textured, not scaly but ridged, bark-like but pliable and soft at the same time.  "Well Duncan", she had named him, "I think we need to find the psychic, I'm sure you two have a lot to discuss", and taking a tiny freeze dried morsel from her belt, she offered it to Duncan and went off to find the psychic.

Alrea's beeper (the communicator/ map keeper on your wrist) began to go off as creatures ran into the traps she had laid out. Quickly, the small team drops what non-military thing they were doing and go to their battle modes... though they don't actually know what the annoying little alarm is, they can guess.

Your traps only delay them for so long since the traps could only handle so many things at once... after a minute, you can see them coming through the brush. They obviously aren't from the forest, the sleek, silverish bodies moved too fast and too clumsily to navigate the forest with ease, and you have seen no predators in the forests... these obviously eat meat. They are about shin high on Mustaffa.

One hits a trap that Arlea had placed and has a small, sharpened log rammed into its chest (the deadlier traps are out farther, obviously). The crature goes down without a sound.

"Gather around me, fire at will!" Mustaffa roared as he mounted the turret on top of the elevation. He input the security-code and released the safety. "Stay low!"

Then he fired at anything moving around the camp, making the area even wider as trees fell before him.

Arlea switched off her alarm and tucked 'Duncan' into her shirt pocket.  Taking out her remote detonator she keyed in the four digit number and the outer perimeter erupted in pure white light.  The ground shook as the shock wave reached them.

The original detonation, triggered a second and then a third as the entire perimeter exploded in staged blasts.

The explosions were only equalled in noise by Mustaffa's cannon fire.

"Now big bloody lizards, huh? That probably means we're ****ed for sure. Lucky me I brought some armor piercing rounds, however why the hell did I do that for?" Hugh asked himself out load as he started to change his magazine.
But just as he removed it he noticed all the small creatures approaching. As Hugh heard Mustaffa ordering them to fire, Hugh quickly put his magazine with small rapid bullets back in the rifle.
"No stupid giant killer rounds will save us now!" He though as he started to open fire, quickly taking down the small intruders left and right.

((I imagine this battle being somewhat like the last scene in the last Rambo movie ))

Mustaffa showed his teeth as his rounds tore apart each creature coming into view. Arleas traps had scattered them and killed the front waves, making those coming after easy targets on the open ground. The bullets tore three foot wide holes in the ground whenever they missed their targets, creating yet another obstacle for the creatures to pass.

Arlea stood in the middle of the camp with her hands over her ears.  She had thought about joining in the gun fight, but after looking at her semi automatic's and then the weapons both Hugh and Mustaffa were using, she decided to save her rounds, "not that they would do much", she thought.

The cacophony and fire display coming from the turret tower was awesome and on the other side of the camp, Hugh was laying down some pretty impressive light displays himself.  Arlea noticed that both were loving it.

The battle continues for five minutes in this way, slowly the creatures begin to gather in multiple large clusters and the Grenade launcher is running out of ammunition. The alien's bodies are making wall-like piles that work about as well as your barricades... not at all. (Did I mention that these things are fast?) The swarming monsters are slowly getting closer and closer to you as the fight continues.

Oh, and the sun begins to set.

Above the blaring gunfire, you hear roars of pure rage ring out. The creatures (named "Wolves" by Ev later) stop coming at you and stare deeper into the forest. Twelve of the giant reptilian "Apes" charge straight at the tightest knot of the "Wolves", tearing them apart with seemingly almost no effort. The Wolves begin to attack them and, since Mustaffa's grenade launcher is set on "Kill the biggest thing that isn't human that moves", it fires its last shot (It shot rather allot of the Wolves) at the closest "Ape". The explosion knocks it off-balance, and blows a decent sized hole in the creature's skin, but the shot goes largely unnoticed due to the tough hide and the "Ape's" bloodlust.

The Wolves start to focus on your new allies, all the swarms converging into one to try and take their foes down, and for a few instants the Apes disappear under their bodies. You open up on them, and a few seconds later your foes scatter, revealing the nine "Friendlies" still standing. You look at each other for a while before they docily lumber off into the woods.

Alex missed most of the battle, as he tried to subdue his new found powers. He did several mind calming techniques to stop the intense buzzing of the primitive thoughts that swarmed inside his head. They overshouted eachother, giving Alex a severe migrene, with the sounds of the battle not doing any good either. Alex felt like he's starting to levitate. Psychic energy discharged around his body in form of electric charges. A large purplish shockwave of psychic energy erupted from Alex's head, going at least several kilometers before it vanished, not harming anything, neither man, beast or equipment.
Alex landed on the ground. The mass of voices echoing in his head were gone. Alex now had his gift fully under control.
