				They had already been on the planet known as XTF465 for a few days and already tensions were running a bit high.&nbsp; Just one of the effects of cryo sleep.&nbsp; Max had seen it before.&nbsp; He had spent a couple of years on another colony and as each team landed, you could feel the tensions running high.&nbsp; He chuckled to himself as he listened to them snipe at each other.<br><br>This is why he often stayed off to himself.&nbsp; He knew better than to get in the middle of their squabbles.&nbsp; He focused back on his samples he had collected the day before.&nbsp; He was astounded at the results.&nbsp; He had jumped on board with this company to find cures and he seemed to be awfully close now.<br><br>He recalled his early days in college.&nbsp; His parents had passed on around this time.&nbsp; Both tragedies he didnt think about or even with to remember.&nbsp; They would have been proud.&nbsp; 34 years old now and with Rememdium Corp, a company dedicated to making a difference, not making profit.&nbsp; Or at least he hoped that was still their goal.&nbsp; It had been some 6 years since he had seen anything close to earth.&nbsp; Probes had been scouring the outer rim for planets to explore and possible plants to test and hopefully find some medicinal use for.&nbsp; <br><br>And of course with all of this, he had little time for anything other than career.&nbsp; If you could even call setting up small colonies every two years a job or career.&nbsp; He had nothing back on earth really.&nbsp; He had been space hopping for some time.&nbsp; He sighed deeply and decided he could stand the background bickering no longer.&nbsp; He went to his quarters, gathered enough gear to be out in the field for a few days and headed toward the main hatch.<br><br>The atmosphere here was very much like earth, which was welcomed.&nbsp; The last place they had helped colonize had very little if any atmo.&nbsp; Setting up the terra production was hard enough, but then having to set up atmo plants to produce any breathable atmosphere and set up proper gravity was a pain.&nbsp; Here, all that wasn't needed.&nbsp; He filled out the logbook near the main hatch which would show anyone else he was leaving for a time and the coordinates he planned to explore.&nbsp; A few days out in the wilds would do him some good.&nbsp; The hatch opened with a swish as he made his way into the lush forest.&nbsp; <br><br>

				Shavar had had it up to his long, sinewy neck with the alien invader whom he had been trailing, now, for over one full light cycle. He had already been in a really foul mood because, no matter what he tried, he just couldn't seem to get that young healer, Shakti, interested in him. He had been hanging around her for so many cycles he had lost count... offering to help her collect plants, offering to guard her if she wanted to go further into the forest. And he knew that she wanted to, he could see it in her black crystalline eyes... those beautiful eyes... but she balked him at every advance! What in the seven tribes was the girl waiting for?!?<br><br>And now this.. alien.. this strange creature had come out of its large... whatever it was... and was walking around like it owned the place. He could easily keep pace with the short-necked, straight legged alien, even without going on all fours, as the Tu'ul tended to do when they want to put on some serious speed. His ancestors used to go around like that all that time, like the beasts of the planet did, but they had evolved beyond that phase long ago.<br><br>Seeing that the alien was careless enough to just go wandering deeper into the forest, Shavar almost had a mind to just leave him and let some karnabeast take care of him or something. But no, the young Tu'ul warrior decided that he would be the alien's greatest threat. Besides, the creature could be up to anything and it was Shavar's duty, as he saw things, to deal with it.<br><br>Crouching on all fours, in order to move as silently and carefully as possible, Shavar stalked parallel to the alien until the sun was low in the sky, then sat stock still and watched the creature in silence. The male's skin was darkish green, a perfect color to blend with the tall wavy bushes in which he was currently hiding, especially amongst the shadows of twilight. His tail/phallus waved behind him in agitation, the end splitting open and his barb coming out, but he held himself off to wait for the optimum moment to strike.

				Watching the alien cutting and gathering the plants was really starting make Shavar's blood boil with disdain, and even outrage. Who was this creature to be taking from Tuvaki land as if it was its right to do so?!? He couldn't take it any more, he was going to teach this thing a lesson... and final one, at that, if the male warrior had anything to say about it!<br><br>He flicked out his long tongue, he could almost smell the creature's agitation, and he wondered if he had been spotted but the alien didn't seem to make any other signs that it noticed anything was amiss. Then, suddenly and without warning, Shavar came crashing out of the bushes, making as much noise as he could and almost growling at the alien, his phallic tail raised high above his head, the barb already dripping with its venom as he reached out to the alien's mind...<br><br>...nothing, silence...<br><br>Which was just as well to Shavar, as he circled around the alien and attempted to weigh in his mind how much of a threat this creature could be to him. Its cutting implements didn't seem all that impressive, to be honest, but Shavar had enough experience as a hunter to know that looks could, indeed, be deceiving.
