"Well," she said, using her own magical telepathy to avoid Arca hearing what she said, "maybe I'll let you see a bit more of my ass when we're done here." She rested a hand on Clarice's ass, enjoying the feel of it and just about resisting the urge to pinch it again.<br/><br/>"There's only one of the crew who knows what happened," Arca said.<br/><br/>"Well technically two," said a man in a rather battered-looking captain's uniform who walked in from somewhere towards the front of the ship. "But I don't think Archangel is going to be very...talkative right about now," he said, laughing slightly.<br/><br/>"Clarice, meet Captain Drayton," Clarice said, laughing at Drayton's comment herself. "I'm told he's the genius pilot who got them down here without damaging the ship."<br/><br/>"This is true," Drayton said. "I can't tell you exactly what happened becase I was still a child when it happened, I can tell you what little I remember and what my parents told me though. It started when NASA detected an energy source on the surface of Titan that was emitting a communication in Morse code. If we'd been smart or had any idea what was coming we'd have ignored it but we chose to try and contact it using a satellite. The problem is...they hijacked it. We don't know how, but they used the link between the satellite and NASA to jump between Titan and Earth. A portal opened in the middle of Cape Kennedy unleashing an army of...well, the only word my mother could think of to describe them was demons. That's where Cape Kennedy is...I should say was," he said, zooming in to an area of the US which had almost completely been swallowed by water. "She would never tell me anymore than that, except to say that most of humanity never stood a chance, once that first portal was stable they started opening all over the planet. By the point this image is taken all that's left of humanity are a few pockets of resistance where they had a particularly large army at their disposal to protect civilians. Part of the reason where we come from survived was Archangel himself, he doesn't just have one superpower...he is said to have all at once somewhere in his body, but he is only able to use one power at once."
