*beep*beep*beep*bittybitty*beep*

Rubi-Ka News.
Omni officials called for a meeting with several divisions of the Omni corporation in order to calm employees and associates after the rumor of the return of the well known and greatly feared BigSwede, a notorius Omni killer, who was one of the organizers of the massacre in Omni-1 a few years ago when a Clan group forced their way into Omni-1 and killed many Omni employees. If the rumor turns to be true, the already tense relation between Omni and the Clans may shatter and violence might become more frequent on around Rubi-Ka. BigSwede was known to be very violent in his contacts with Omni personell and gained a reputation for his unforgiving way of handling peace negotiations. It’s been said that even some of the Clanners themselves feared the old Atrox enforcer and his forcefull way of settling differences.
Omni security officials have said that if Bigswede returns, they will need to raise their defense budget in order to meet eventual hostilities by the Clans.

The weather report tells us there will be sunny……

A dark huge figure leaned back in the old chair dropping the remote on a small table, only just upheld by three bent metal legs. He laughed softly with his low voice, placed both hands behind his head and looked up.
- Home sweet home.

So old dinosaur is rumored to return? Loads of new stuff to learn.

If it really happens we better make him happy. Of course it will be easier since we'll loose one troll....

Relaxing in his deep recliner, Cogs poured a whiskey, and snapped at the entertainment system : "news feed!"
Sinking back, Cogs snapped to attention again, as he picked up the last part of the newscast....

He almost choked on his whiskey as the words sank into his inner synapses, and slammed his glass on the table. "Bigswede! ......it cannot be...but....then again!"
Throwing his gear back on, he stormed out the door......heading for that special old place they always used to meet......"If he returns....if.......there is only one place to start looking"

Cogs ran off......heart aloft with joy and hope....

After having been dropped off the starship at the fringe of a desert by an old junkyard BigSwede slowly walked towards the sparse woods of West Athen, carefully avoiding contact with both wildlife and people. As he approached the gates of West Athen he stopped by an old tree standing on the side of the road. The old carving was still there he noticed, laughing silently to himself. They were lovers once, his sister and that man. A wave of old memories came over him as he stood there. Old friends, now long gone. People he knew and loved. But thats just history, he told himself shaking his head slowly. He allready had wasted so much of his time and his mission was not to stand like a fool at a dumb old tree. He turned away from it and walked through the gates of West Athen towards one of the buildings. As he entered, the light at the sign over the door flickered. The number "3" was barely visible under years of dirt.

The old communication unit didn't work. All those long journeys across the milky way had battered it into something just resembling a device used for communication. The power unit was hanging out of the box and the screen was only a flickering weak light. His large clumsy fingers stumbled over the unit as he tried once again to connect.
- Hello? He said with his harsh old voice. The comm unit just answered with a silent noise of disturbance. He fiddled with it some more, found a small switch and the noise stopped.
- Hello?

.....it was late, the birds had stopped singing.....and it seemed Rubi-Ka was the most peaceful planet in the known Universe.......West Athen slumbered, nothing moved........exept.....a large figure, clad in dark...could be seen, if one really looked, sneaking past the dozing guards, across the road....and finally halting at an old, huge tree. He quickly looks around, before carefully pulling out a small brush, and a bottle of some unknown liquid......and if you really listened, you could hear him softly talking to himself.

"my dear....Felicity....so much time.......I still love you"

..a small tear trickles down his atrox features, as he carefullly cleans that ole carving in the tree.......its a heart, with the letters M + F.......
