A Frog Prince sits on a folding chair in the northern Zephyr parking lot, writing something on a tablet comm unit using a tablet pen. They seem dressed like squire would be - poofy pants, a waistcoat, a hip scabbard with a silver rapier, and a chapeau complete with a quill going through it, as well as a scratched up messanger bag. However, on closer inspection, one would notice bruises and cuts on their skin.

Auros just got out of the Zephyr building after seeing the notice on the bulleting board. It certainly was a strange sight, not the frog, but his garments. The huge man approaches the amphibian, a friendly tone and a warm smile in his face. "Hello there, I take it's you that needs help with the shipment of supplies? The name's Auros!"

Asuki oozes onto the scene, she smiles as she gets stands next to Auro "Asuki here, heard ya needed some help" if she thought either the frog or his dress on she gave no outword look of it.

Zophah walks out behind Auros, having napped in the lobby waiting for the supply run to start. She has her usual lab coat and bikini on, carrying her usual mailbag. Giving a polite bow she says "I'm Zophah, and I'm here to help."

Xifeng flys in from above the parking lot and lands besides everyone. She takes a look at the frog and assumes that he is her employer. She waves towards everyone and says, "Hiya everyone. Sorry I'm late. I almost forgot about the help notice and had to fly in from the Death Valley Scrublands."

Firecracker drops from above to land her tiny, 3 ounce weight on top of the Frog Prince's head, and thusly its hat, as she peeks at their tablet. "Whatcha writin'?" she chirps happily as she lands before looking up to the rest of the group. "Oh, and I'm Firecracker!" she introduces herself with a rapid waving of her foreleg as she sits up on her haunches.

The frog stays quiet as they watch as the group of people gather around them, but gives an acknowledging tip of the hat to those who address them. "I assume you all are here for the request I put out on the bulletin board the other day? Hm, not quite what I was expecting, but this is good." He looks among the group as they stand up, their voice of a central British accent. "Alright, here's what happened. Two days ago, I was transporting a crate of supplies through the Sweaty Jungle on my way to Zephyr. But then, a group of ferals came out and attacked me. I managed to get out of there, but I had to leave some of my belongings where they attacked, including the supplies." They pace about for a bit as they continue. "If you can find the supplies, all will be good. I'll pay you some extra if you can return most of them. I've also scheduled Mike to bring you over to the jungle. And, one last thing..." They fish around in their messanger bag before pulling out a USB drive. "The crate came with a tracking device. You should be able to plug this into your comm unit, and you'll be able to find the crate, or at least the device itself." The frog begins looking among the group. "Any questions?"

Auros scratches his beard, listening to the frog, raising his hand once they ask. "I do. Two questions, actually. First: what are those supplies? Second: why were you out there?" - His tone seemed more like that of a concerned brother than of a suspicious neighbour.

Zophah waits a second, thinking of what she can ask of the frog. "About how much supplies are there? You said there was one crate but how big are we talking about?"

Asuki thinks a moment "Seems pretty straightforward to me, You said attacked by ferals? where you alone?" she nods to zophah indicated she'd also like to know the size and weight of these crates. "is mike going to stick around or we calling in for pick up once we find the stuff?"

Xifeng raises a feathered hand and says in a sheepish voice, "Hehe, sorry I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Xifeng. And I have a couple questions." Her tone and face becomes serious as she continues and asks, "How many ferals are we dealing with and can we expect more to come?"

Firecracker rides the frog's head back and forth as it paces, listening to its spiel before turning to look at each person as they ask their questions. Once it's her turn, she takes in a deep breath as if she's going to ask a long string of questions, then huffs it out and simply says, "Nah! I'm good!"

The Frog Prince puts their hands behind their back, turning to Auros and Zophah beside them. "I was there because I had to, ahem, run errands for a friend, but the contents of the crates do not matter to you. I'd prefer keeping my privacy about things. And, the crate is about yay big." They raise their hand to about neck level. "And, well, it was one crate containing about 4 more crates. Makes transporation easier." They look at Asuki, nodding again. "Yes, I made the trip by myself because I'd assume that I wouldn't need help or that travelling alone makes me a smaller target. Obviously not true. And, yes, Mike will need to be called again once you find the supplies. He has things to do as well, you know." They finally adress Xifeng. "Well, I made out at least 3 on my trip out. It's a whole jungle, so I'd assume that, yes, there are more." He holds out the USB drive for Auros to take. "Hopefully, no more questions? I am not paying you to ask them."

Auros shrugs and takes the USB drive, taking a look at it before putting it in his right pocket. "You did ask if we had any questions, we need some info before actually helping out, y'know... Anyway, it's pretty much go there, grab the crate and get out with everything intact." - Auros looks to the others gathered there, nodding and smiling. "Let's do it then!"

Zophah doesn't have anything else to say, so she just checks her bag one last time to see if she has everything she needs. Once everything checks out she turns to head to the hellicopter.

Asuki nods "yup sounds good to me and easy enough, we can hope at least." she smiles looking all cheerful and hopeful.

Xifeng shakes her head in answer to the frog's question. She gives herself a good stretch to steady herself from her long flight back to Zephyr and says, "Nope, I'm ready to go if everyone else is." She prepares what little gear she has on her and falls in line with everyone else. As she does so, an idea pops into her mind and she asks the group, "Who's going to be our de facto leader?"

"Operation: Go Get Four Crates Inside One Big Crate From The Sweaty Jungle Maybe Guarded By At Least Three People is a go!" Firecracker cheers as she hops up off the frog's head and into a hover, already about to fly off to wherever it is she's supposed to be flying off to.

The prince nods. "Alright, that should be it then. Go board Mike's chopper, he should be at the helipad already. Tell him that you're with George's group, unless you intend to pay when I already arranged the transport." Once the group gets to the helipad, they would see Mike already standing there with his chopper, looking down at his comm unit before glancing over at the group. "Ah, I take it you're all with George? Hop on in, then."

Auros smiled at Xifeng's question, patting her shoulder, "I could be, if no one else is against the idea. I got lots of life experience that may be useful to us, quick thinking for some decisions. Besides, leading isn't too hard, any of us could do it, I'm sure. What you really need to know is what each person of the team is good at and make sure they use their abilities!"

Auros uses his newly acquired nanite adept powers to change size before boarding the chopper, getting smaller and lighter. He also grabs and starts donning a new-looking heavy armor from his large pack.

Asuki nods "that would be us" as she boards the heli. "did we decide on defactor leader for this ban... if no... onetwothree not it" putting a finger to her nose. "also, we should take stock on each other's abilities and work up some plan, in case combat does start. I for one prefere getting a little... up close and very personal, but i can also put up a nanite regulation bubble, you know, a remote server"

Zophah nods her head in agreement with Auros being the 'leader' before she hops onto Mike's chopper, helping anyone else step up if they need it. "I'm better with being covert, deceptive, and crafty. I've got a good mastery of illusion and shaping nanomagic if you need anything." After buckling in she chooses to take another nap until the group gets to the drop point.

Xifeng hops into the chopper with a smile on her face. There is a look of excitment on her face as she awaits their adventure into the forest to recover George's belongings. "I don't care who's the leader as long as it's not me. I'm not suited for that." Then a mischevious grin appears on Xi's face as continues on, "Besides, it's no fun being the leader. As for what I'm good with, um... tracking and other survival based skills. I'm a little strong too."

"Yupperooni! Reporting in for Operation: G-G-F-C-I-O-B-C-F-T-S-J-M-G-B-A-L-T-P!" Firecracker announces with a quick salute as she passes by Mike on her way into the helicopter, landing herself in the pile of goo that is Asuki. The entire ride over, the pint-sized pink pegasus giggles and bounces in the girl's gelatinous body. She pretty much fails to give a description of her abilities as she plays around.

The chopper flight to the Sweaty Jungle goes as per usual. Eventually, Mike lands the chopper at its usual landing area, just bordering the edge of the jungle. "Alright, you guys. This is as far as I can take you in. When you're done here, come back to this spot and send me a page with your comm unit or something." If Auros were to plug the USB into his comm unit, he would see a screen pop up, reading "OBJECT: 67 KM EAST".

Auros gets out of the heli but does not change size yet, aware that right now, some recon would be more useful. He grabs the USB stick from his right pocket and looks at Zophah. "You said you like to be more furtive, right? Think you can scout ahead for us?" - He looks back to the others, addressing what he could be useful for, "If things start getting crazy, just stay behind me, I'll keep whatever is coming off your backs."

Asuki nodding and notting the distance, she had turned on her bubble the moment the heli left the main bubble "I could probably fly us there, wouldn't be very... stealthy. maybe a mix? fly a short distance and walk the rest?"

Zophah takes the usb that was handed to her and plugs it into her comm, noting the distance. "We will be better off if we can get everyone in the air to fly over. You can track my comm location as I scout ahead." She sheds her fur in a shower of flames as she becomes a phoenix, taking off into the air towards the mssing supplies. Within seconds she becomes invisible with her Vanishing Nanomagic.

Xifeng goes up to Auros and pats him on the back. "Looks like you are going to be the leader for this expedition." A look of envy appears on Xi's face as she Zophah go invisible. "Hm... to bad I can't turn invisible myself. Otherwise I would have totally asked to follow her." The phoenix that remained with the group seems to be itching to do something.

"Wouldn't it be easier for you to be behind me if I had something on my back?" Firecracker asks as she zips off to join Zophah in her scouting. "Don't worry, I'll send ya a video!" she calls back to the group she leaves behind, tapping a forehoof to her temple as she goes. A few seconds later, Auros does indeed get the video the puny pegasus promised, should he accept it anyway, as she sends all the visual and auditory information she receives directly to him. At the same time, she downloads the same information from the human as she flies.

While Zophah and Firecracker fly off into the jungle, the part of the group that stays grounded begins trekking through the forest. While a few ferals are encountered - mostly ribbed frogs and the like - most of them give a warning growl of some sort at the moving foliage before scampering off as the large group passes by. Zophah and Firecracker will eventually come across a small clearing in the jungle, where the supplies are supposedly located. There's a sandy shore by a river in the clearing, and the tracking device can be seen discarded on the pile of rocks. Two mutants can be seen a few feet away from the device, a python and a lily pad. Both seem to be eating the melons that grow in abundance around the jungle, though neither seem to give Zophah and Firecracker any mind.

Auros beeps his comm and checks if Zophah and Firecracker can still hear them. Hopefully the signal won't get cut off by the dense foliage. Leading the ground team, he keeps his focus mostly on his own vision, tracking Zophah. "Asuki, Xifeng, stay close and watch for anything on the sides or on our rear." After some minutes, he does give a hand signal to stop, once he receives some video feed from Firecracker. He narrates it to the other two, "Two ferals eating melons... A lilypad and a python... It seems they took off the tracking device from the crate. Let us hope they know where the crate is. I suggest two of us get there and try to talk to them. The others will stay in position in case violence is neccessary."

Asuki nods "range isn't my strong point but i can become hard to detect if you want some hidden cover. not big on the talking though, i do well in the think of things"

Zophah makes an illusion of a whisper next to Firecracker, just loud enough for her to hear: "Hold back for a second, I have an idea." Keeping her invisibility, she then lands next to the two ferals, usig her kitsunetsuki power to push the lily pad into discussing where the other supplies would be.

Xifeng advances slightly ahead of the group at Auros' orders, using her tracking skills gained through living in the wilds to check for any signs of danger that the two flying might have missed. There is now a serious look on her face, the lighthearted feeling she gave off before setting out is no more. She is cautious in her movements and awaits any new orders from Auros unless something occurs.

Firecracker holds back for a second as she counts out loud, "One-thousand one!" Once the second is up, she flies down to land next to the tracking device, picking it up with her mouth happily as she looks over at the two mutants and the invisible phoenix. Should they spot her or even care about her appearance, the little pegasus will wave a foreleg in greeting as she stands there.

While the grounded group stands about and waits for more orders from Auros, Xifeng's attempts to see through the thick underbrush prove fruitless, though she is able to hear distant rustling from a bush. "Would you know where supplies are?" The python raises an eyebrow. "Supplies? I saw guys passing the melon patch on my way back here. Not my buisness dealing with them though. Are they same ones who left that thing on the stone?" He points over to the rock pile, noticing that the tracking device has gone. The lily pad swims over to the rocks. "Uh, I think? I don't know where went now... wait, what are we talking about again?" The two ferals don't seem to even notice Zophah and Firecracker.

Zophah moves in the direction of the melon patch the python mentioned, using her Biodetection Nanomagic to kep track of any other ferals that may be in the area. She whispers into her comm "There are two ferals at the clearing where the tracker was at. The shipment is missing but neither of them are responsible. I'm moving to a melon patch where the supplies may have been taken. Firecracker, please bring the traker with you."

Auros thinks for a moment, taking a look at his surroundings, trying to find any clue as to where the missing supplies could be. If they were large crates, they should be easy to track, unless they went by water. "Okay people, so finding this thing will be a bit more problematic than we first thought. Xifeng, Asuki, let's try and find any tracks, George said the crate was this big and carrying other crates inside, so they should leave some rather obvious tracks." Turning to the comm, he spoke to Firecracker and Zophah, "One of you should check that melon patch... Seems you're already doing that, good job, Zophah. Firecracker, follow the river in the direction of the patch, see if you can find any signs of a crate being carried, or footsteps. It's sandy, so it should be pretty easy to notice. Also, everyone, keep your comms open at all times."

Asuki shifts down to what is essentially a goo fairy, and flutters off, she takes a support position behind Auros and laughs as she realized that firecracker waited a literal one second. "the way those two ferals where talking, I'm thinking we might have something a bit more then simple ferals to worry about, they did steal and move a crate of what we don't know. the might be armed, heck... might be armed with whatever might have been in that crate... just... stay on your toes"

Xifeng nods her head at Auros' orders and goes out to complete it. She looks around for any signs of tracks or perhaps a crate being dragged.

"Ahy-ahy!" Firecracker says with a mouth full of tracker as she flies upwards, looking around at the area in an attempt to find either tracks or melon patch to fly towards. Should that fail, she'll rely on her sniffer to do what it does best, sniff out tasty juicy melons. Should THAT fail, she'll simply follow Zophah in whatever direction she goes.

As Xifeng begins to sneak through the underbrush, she would notice a few mutants hanging out around a small, hip-height crate. A Stalking Tigress, a Cat Girl, and an Alien, sitting down on logs around said crate. Zophah begins following the trail that the python supposedly made. Something seems odd about the tracks, with certain footprints dissapearing sometimes and reappearing on the mud. The occasional glass test tube can also be found along the trail. Eventually, they reach a broken crate next to a melon patch, with more sets of feet heading out from there.

The tracks that Zophah examines seem to be coming from many different species - ranging from paws, bird talons, hooves, and even a pair of high heels. Where the path of a snowshoe hare ends, a trail of goo begins.

Auros didn't find anything, but the first notice caught his attention. Xifeng found three ferals sitting by a crate, still locked. Off to a good start, maybe. He waved for Asuki to follow him and asked Xifeng to see if she could get into a higher position without the ferals noticing, stand ready to rain fire over them. While heading there, he received the feed and info from Zophah and Firecracker. One crate broken up, the contents used by the ferals. Ferals? Hardly. "I doubt we're dealing with ferals, this was planned. Zophah, those tracks, do they seem to head towards Xifeng?"

Asuki nods to auros and shifts back to her normal size. she still takes up a support position to auros, her stance is relaxed, and well wouldn't look it, is ready in case violence does break out but has no intention of throwing that first punch. "if not ferals... who? do we care?"

Zophah still remains invisible just in case, but speaks normally while talking on the comm back to the main group: "Judging from the changing tracks I think all of the vials were used immediately. A smart person would have saved them for selling or proper shifting. The tracks are all over the place so I don't think we can follow them. Any luck on your end?"

Xifeng nods follows Auros' orders and tries to stealthily fly up a tree to provide cover. She positions herself on a branch overlooking the ferals and readies herself for any sign of violence to come from the ferals. There is a slight hope that scrap will ensue.

Firecracker wiggles her hindlegs together in the air as she flies, following Zophah from behind as she follows the tracks to the broken open crate. Looking around, she tries to determine which set of tracks would be best to follow towards another box. If she can't figure it out or see another box after looking around the area, she'll just pick one at random and continue onwards to adventure!

The tigress and cat girl don't seem to notice Auros, Xifeng, and Asuki moving around, the two in idle chatter, though the alien does. "Shh. Agents. Not sure where. We need go to away." The two others look over to where the alien is looking before nodding, the three slowly turning around and walking into the brush. Firecracker can only see two sets of tracks - the set heading back towards the clearing where the lily pad and the python were, and another set heading away from them. Once Firecracker leaves Zophah, however, Zophah can see something out of the corner of her eye - three ribbed frogs hiding in the bush. Firecracker can see the tracks lead up to a small hillside cave, with another opened box hiding within the darkness.

Auros knew damn well that stealth was not an option for him. Still, he did find it odd how long they took to notice him approaching. "I bet they'll be setting up an ambush. Asuki, circle around, let me get their attention. You and Xifeng should have the element of surprise." The man kept his comm ready to use his nanite adept powers to get as big as he could. An itchy trigger finger, so to say. Approaching the crate, noticing it unlocked, he couldn't resist and open it. He did so keeping his head and torso far from the lid, arm stretched. Who knows, maybe it was rigged?

Asuki halfway about to sprout wings and chase down those mutants that ran off then hears Auros orders "I think they're high tailing out of here auros" though she'd follow his instructions shifting back down to smaller size and moving to circle the mutants. she does a once over her mind as she prepares for combat, making some quick adjustments given the current situation.

While remaining invisible, Zophah creates an illusion of herself bumbling out of the jungle to where the broken crate is in front of her, making a lot of noise and movement to catch the attention of the frogs. The original calls back to the main group, having the illusion do the same to cover it up. "The crate I found must have been the larger one. Any luck finding the smaller ones?" While the illusion looks scared, the original pulls out a syringe of paralyic venom to knock out one of the frogs once they try to ambush her illusion.

Xifeng sees that the ferals are trying to escape and blows flames in their way, reaccting instinctively. She jumped the gun however, as right when did her flamethrower, she hears Auros' orders. The phoenix relays back, "Sorry, they were trying to escape. I blocked their path though."

Firecracker happily flies to the cave, humming a little tune as she looks around. If the box thinks it can hide in the darkness from her, it better think again! The little pegasus shakes her head vigorously, before stopping to blink at the still-dark cave. To remedy the situation, she knocks on her temple a few times with a forehoof, finally getting her eyeballs to emit cones of light into the not-so-dark-anymore cave! With ample lighting, she takes stock of the cave and the box once again as she flips the tracking device up into her mane and calls out, "Hellooooo-ooo! Anybody hoooome? ECHO!!" She giggles then speaks, seemingly to herself, "Yeah, those three guys are definitely running away after getting that seven and a half mako worth of vials, Rossy!"

The ferals continue to walk away slowly from the crate which they stole, trying to stay quiet though the moment that they see Xifeng's burst of flames heading their way, all of them scramble away in random directions as a bush catches fire, then the stump of a tree as it spreads. Auros will find that the crate is untrapped, simply containing a few racks of test tubes full of Prime nanites. One of the ribbed frogs following Zophah begins to slowly creep up behind her, before jumping on her back and failing to the illusion, landing inside the large broken crate. The two other frogs peek out from the bush, looking around for Zophah. Firecracker does not get a response to her calls down the cave, though if she were to look inside the box she'd find a few prime vials left inside.

Auros is taken by surprise at Xifeng's move, closing the lid, increasing in size and picking it up. Taking some steps back from the fire, he fills his lungs and shouts with the best thunderous voice he has, "YOU THREE BETTER GET BACK HERE AND SURRENDER IF YOU WANT TO STAY ALIVE, YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES!" He talks back to the group via the comm, "I got one crate. I guess all crates are full of prime vials. Let's see how these three 'ferals' will react to this fire. Once we get this sorted out, I'll head to the cave."

Asuki grumbles and she flaps and grows in size, b-lining for the nearest feral, hoping she's remained more or less unnoticed she waits until the very last minute, changing sizes drastically to something big enough to engulf, literally, the feral, and attempting to do so as she then tries to lift it up to safety "don't struggle I've no intention of hurting you and nor do I wish to accidently drop you into the fire" wether or not her arieal pick up was a success however, she'd make her way back to try and deal with the fire, already having some ideas.

Zophah imediately drugs the frog that landed in the remains of the crate. With another illusion, Zophah creates a Prime Fast Anery Stripe Cornsnake that crashes through the jungle towards the remaining two frogs, trying to scare them away. It even tramples the illusionary Zophah in a blood curdling scream as it leaps at the frogs. Thankfully her illusion doesn't reach the other group members, so she doesn't have to worry them with what happened to her.

Xifeng sees that her flamethrower has stopped the ferals from escaping into the bush. However, since this is a forest, an uncontrolled burn would be really bad so instead of continuing to pursue the ferals she stops and lets the pursuit to asuki and Auros. She begins to beat down the flames with her wings in attempt to smother them.

Firecracker blinks at the sight of burning jungle via Auros's vision. She quickly stuffs the collection of vials into her mane before darting out of the cave and towards the fire over the treetops.

The fire begins to die down as Xifeng starts beating it, though it still persists enough to be a danger. The cat girl begins to squirm around before breaking into tears. "Nyaah... I sorry... I didn't mean... *sniff*" Her squirming becomes even more intense as she is brought closer to the fire. "Please! I... I..." The bluff prime created works, with the two ribbed frogs darting back into the bush immediately at the sight of the prime crushing the fake Zophah. The big crate begins shaking a little as the frog within begins to climb out slowly.

Auros wasn't in a shape to catch the other two. He wanted them to come and be spared, but they didn't. Whatever, better interrogate what Asuki caught. Getting there with some hurry and seeing the engulfed cat girl, the huge man smiled and nodded to the goo girl, then crouched. "You better tell us everything you know about this. Who planned the attack and why. Unless..." He glanced towards the flame, a devilish grin in his face, "You want to taste like barbecue."

Asuki keeps herself wrapped around the cat girl well auros interrogates her, she however turns her attention towards the first not having a better idea at the moment, shifts her groin into something useful, quick silver serpent and... unless her... ahem... endless flow on the fire.

Zophah dismisses her illusions and invisibility, grabing the frog by the neck and leaning over to its eye level. Working her Hypnosis and Kitsunetsuki powers she calmly and firmly commands: "You are going to tell me where the remaining vials are, and you are going to tell me the truth."

Xifeng continues to beat at the flames with her wings. She uses her comm to ask, "Do you guys think that my shadow breath will help put out the flames or should I keep on smothering it?" If they answer yes, she will use shadow breath on the burning parts of the forest.

Firecracker quickly flies towards the fire, getting closer and closer by the minute, maybe. As she dashes through the air, she casually removes one of the vials from her mane to inspect for any marking or labelings, swapping it out for another and another until she's checked each one. The whole time, she whistles "Ride of the Valkyries" and rubs her hindlegs together, dripping down her legs and to the jungle below. Asuki's creative use of Endless Flow certainly doesn't help the pegasus's situation as she begins to blush and rub more strongly at the sight given through Auros's eyes.

The tall, scary looking man sends the cat girl crying in fear. "No! Please! I don't!" In between periods of crying, the cat girl gets out that she and her feral friends ambushed the frog prince, why they did, she doesn't know. The frog got away, and left behind a box with more boxes inside of it, the smaller boxes containing small tubes of tasty looking nanites. The frog grasps at the hands holding him by the neck, though stops his flailing once Zophah begins hypnotising him. "Remaining vials... do not know what is remaining vials..."

Auros gently pats the head of the cat girl with his huge. "Okay kitty, you will come with us... We found a cave with many empty vials leading there. Who else took part in the attack?" Auros got up, asking if Asuki could manage to move properly while engulfing the captive. If not, he had enough ropes to leave the cat girl immobile and ready to be carried around.

Asuki nods "well enough if she doesn't squirm tooo much, though i have ways of dealing with her if she does" she gives the cat girl a honestly friendly smile "though I think we both prefere being friendly. Don't we, I promise no harm will come to you so long as you behave and co-operate"

Zophah takes a moment of her interogation to comm back to Xifeng, not noticing that the fire is already out: "I have an extinguisher in my pack, if you have the time to fly over here. I made it myself after the last wildfire." She then turns back to command the frog. "Tell me where the contents of this crate were taken to. There should have been four smaller crates in it."

Xifeng sees that the fire is finally put out. She rubs her head and looks a bit guilty. She apologizes to teh rest of the group saying, "Sorry about that guys. I had no other long range attacks to contain them so yeah..." After a brief moment she continues, "It won't happen again." Then she hears Zophah comm in and replies, "Don't worry about the fire, me and Asuki got it contained."

Firecracker comes to a halt in the air above the jungle, rubbing her hindlegs together rather strongly as she drips to the plantlife below. "O-Okay! Fire problemo all f-fixed! See any other tracks down there to f-follow?" she stammers as she hovers. "Zophy can ch-check out the cave over there to see if I m-missed anything!"

The cat girl calms down as Auros gives her head a pat, a soft mewl escaping her mouth. "Nya, there were 5 of us... two went to a cave for private times... brought two boxes for fun..." The frog begins to slowly look around. "I do not know... the contents... I am inside the box... I am the contents..." He seems rather unresponsive, but still cooperative under the influence of hypnosis.

Auros takes his time to properly check the contents of the crate, counting the vials and seeing if any of them had an exotic or unusual label. "Okay everyone, we better regroup over the entrance of the cave. Just to be sure again, how many of the smaller crates we found again? One here, two others already cracked open and the larger one, right?" - He asked over the comm, while heading towards Zophah's position.

Asuki keeping the cat girl contained, firmly but gently brings her with as she follow Auros to the cave. she keeps her attention on the cat girl and to try and ease attempts some small talk. she listen tot he rest of the orders but, he focus is her captive and making sure first she doesn't escape and second is kept calm and at ease.

Zophah scowled at the frog, not getting anything useful. She then changes her expression to a strained smile and kindly says "You just take a nap right here." before letting go of the frog. Listening on the comm she replies "I hit a dead end here. Any leads? I'm getting a bit impatient and horny so can someone please point me in the right direction." Indeed, her rut has been building over the course of a few hours now.

Xifeng this time takes heed of Auros' orders and doesn't do anything impulsive. She walks slightly ahead again to check for anything unusual. She looks back occasionally to see if the captive cat girl is cooperating and if not, be able to recapture the feral. Hearing the comm from Zophah, the phoenix answers, "We have some info. 2 ferals are in a cave with the rest of the crates. And apparently they were engaging in some sexytimes."

Firecracker shouts out "WHAT?!" loud enough for the whole jungle to hear, probably. She immediately turns around in the air and heads back to the cave as fast as she can, leaving a trail of pink smoke behind her as she blazes through the sky. "Mate me at the cave, Zophy!" she says excitedly through the comms to the other horny girl as she speeds towards her destination. "Get it? I said mate me instead of meet me! Cause we're gunna join those sexytimes!" she giggles.

Firecracker continues speaking through the comms to the group as she quickly says, "And that's only three boxes! You three should go find the fourth while Zophy and I get these two!"

The cat girl has calmed down completely at this point, playfully swimming around in Asuki's goopy body with cute meows. "Where are we going, nya? To see my friends?" She looks up at Auros with her big, kitty eyes. "You're not going to hurt them, are you?" "Yes, master... I will..." The frog falls over into the mud from the crate, fast asleep on the paw tracks that Firecracker took towards the cave.

Auros tried to maintain some composure, even if his mind was having some less than appropriate thoughts with all the females around him, having some trouble with keeping himself only half hard. He looked over the cat girl, a soft smile in his face, "Only if they hurt us first." The cave entrance seems unassuming. "Two of your friends are there, right? Why don't you call them out so we can all talk? Here, I'll even get smaller to not scare them."

Auros looked over to the cat girl, hoping she could be of further use to them. "We won't hurt them if they cooperate. I got one of the crates, my friends found two others. There is still one missing. Do you know where it could be?"

Asuki smiles down and is quite content to let the cat girl go goo swimming. over the comm "you can have all the fun you want with them, once we've secured those crates and called in Mike. Finish the job first, then we can have fun times, if you'd like to speed it along, why not scout those caves and find thoes crates, do that then you can introduce yourself to those ferals"

Zophah first gives an audiable sigh on the comm before speaking: "Sorry Firecracker but work comes first. However, if you can collect that crate from the cave, I'll show you a new trick I made." She tried to make it sound very enticing too.

Xifeng comms firecracker, "Have fun *negotiating* with the ferals. Comm us if you find any information." Then the phoenix continues to search for any signs of ferals or the last crate. Considering that the other crates were somewhat nearby each other, it shouldn't be too hard to find anything she convinces herself.

Firecracker speeds straight into the cave, blasting through it as fast as she can in an effort to find the two sex-having mutants and, to a lesser extent, the "very important" object of her mission. Zophah's offer sure seems to have sped things along.

"Well, we actually dug a hole near here and put the crate in there, nya. In case we wanted more later, but you guys can have it." The cat girl points over at the spot behind the burnt tree before resuming her swimming around. It takes Firecracker a moment to get through the whole cave, but once she reaches the end, she'll see two ferals - a Math Teacher and a Sleepy Sheepgirl going at it. Only the Sheep notices Firecracker, but any of her attempts to point out the tiny horse are ignored by the teacher thrusting into her.

Auros looks behind the tree, checking where the ground seems soft or recently moved and begins digging with his own hands. "Seems I was wrong about this being planned and all. Guess I got too paranoid with the years..." - He told over the comm.

Asuki goes with auros to retrieve the box, in case those ferals doubled back. "maybe they said they don't know why they attacked it, theyre might be more going on here yet. Still, we get these crates and get out, jobs down and we can leave it at that" despite intending to stand guard for auros she was being a little distracted by the cat girl swimming inside her, jostling and allround just playing with her 'captive' in a fun manner, innocent enough at least at the moment.

With the remaing crates being found, Zophah comms Mike to come pick them up. She gives him the time that they should be back to the clearing for him to pick up the group. With that done, she goes to the cave where Firecracker should be, intending to help her if need be.

Xifeng has not seen any trace of a crate or ferals. She gives up on her search and instead goes back to the goo girl to watch over the prisoner more closely. She then realizes the it has become dark now and checks the time. Realizing that afternoon has turned into night she mutters to herself, "Hopefully Firecracker finds the last crate in the cave. I have somewhere to go soon but I don't want to just abandon the client's request.

"Yes! I found you!" Firecracker cheers as she spots the two ferals going at it. "Oh and the box too!" she says as more of a side-issue. "Okay tradesies! I get the box and you get my boxes! Good deal? Good deal!" she is already flying past the two to get the final box, scooping up any unused vials and tossing them in with the rest as she speaks. "I'll be back in seventy four seconds! Don't go anywhere!" She starts pushing the box out of the cave with her head, lifting her tail for the two ferals to see her three dripping heats as she quickly works on shoving it out and to the rest of her team for extraction.

As the team brings the boxes containing the remaining vials out into the clearing, Mike lands his chopper down there, with the frog prince already inside it, hopping out as it touches down. "Good job, you all. I went to go check on you, since it took you five longer than expected to return, but it seems you brought..." The frog prince takes one of the crates and peeks inside. "...at least most of the vials back. Sadly, they've been opened, but that doesn't matter as much as the fact that I got them back. I'll pay you all once I get back to Zephyr and count how many have gone missing."
