The hiss of the ship's landing gears echoed throughout the dark silence of the planet's calm atmosphere. Kelvin followed closely behind Clarinet a but to his right in order to ensure the Namekian's towering height wouldn't obscure his view. The gravity wasn't especially intense, but the air felt thick and made Kelvin's skin tingle with unease; as if something prickly was slowly pressing in on him on all sides. The atmosphere seemed calm enough and maybe it was all in his head, but Kelvin couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. He was extremely anxious, almost to the point of dread; he closed the distance between himself and Clarinet before shuffling to a stop next to him and mimicking his actions. He retrieved his scouter from his weighted pants and slipped it in place before firmly clicking the button on the side of the headpiece and scanning carefully for anything nearby.<br/><br/><span style="font-weight: bold">"Did you plan to land here?</span>" Clarinet's powerful voice broke Kelvin's concentration and made him jump a bit.<br/><br/>"I've traveled a lot, but I never had a compass or much of a sense of direction. This place is sort of familiar; I'd rather not stay here longer than we have to though," his gravelly voice filtered raspily through his mouthpiece. His tail flickered and spiraled frantically as his mind whirred with thoughts; he wasn't afraid of pain or death, but something about this planet was just making Kelvin's skin crawl<br/><br/>"I don't see anything too powerful around, but there are several concentrations of power levels not too far from here. Maybe it's a village? We might be able to find out what exactly is going on,"<br/><br/>Kelvin clicked the scanner off and turned to face his comrades expectantly, but quickly he felt a chill go up his spine and he felt light headed. He tried simply to ignore the feeling and let it pass, but it persisted and only got worse. His mouth started to taste like iron and he needed to sit down. Kelvin tried to casually handle the situation by squatting down as if his back had gotten stiff from the long trip here. He failed miserably; He lost his balance and placed his hand on the ground to keep himself from falling flat onto his face. Kelvin tried to recover when a humming noise rang in his ear and rose to a peak. The higher the ringing became the more it began to sound like someone yelling until suddenly the hybrid noise stopped and words came into focus:<br/><br/><span style="font-size: 150%; line-height: 116%;"><span style="font-weight: bold"><span style="font-style: italic">"They are here! Please, Help us!"</span></span> </span>a husky almost sickly voice shouted in his ear.<br/><br/>"Wha- What?" he remarked aloud without meaning to. Something was not right here.
