The last chance for Rnswall

 The planet of Rnswall thrived for a long time, but one day it stopped.

Rnswallians, or wallians for short, pride themselves on their independence and high mental capacities. Everyone got together for a meeting to figure out what happened.

Except for me, captain Ezra Edack and my crew.

Our mission: to find Leeroy Web, the wisest wallian who ever lived. We had our first round table discussion earlier today...

:fade into meeting room:

 Edack: I've called everyone to the briefing room to make sure we're all on the same page.

 Olik: Excuse me sir,

 Edack: Yes Olik.

 Olik: I'm not sure I follow you.

 Edack: Of course you do, I am the captain, everyone follows me.

 Olik: Very well sir.

 Edack: Now that that's out of the way, we can get to the meat and potatoes of what our mission is.

 Desarianna: Hi everybody sorry I'm late, did I miss anything? Have we found Leeroy already?

 Edack: No, not yet Desarianna, but you're right, we will meet in here when we find him. And find him, we will!...(john candy...). Maybe not today, maybe not this week, but that's ok, we'll search as long as it takes, I promised the high assembly we wouldn't return without him!

 Frank: Where do recent reports suggest he might be?

 Edack: Good question Frank. Marion, what has your study brought to light?

 Marion: Well, if you all would direct your attention toward the Vid-Com-Satmodule...(pointing towards a tv screen) we know Web left our system  heading in an outward direction. And could be here(pointing at small round 'planets'), here, here, here, or on planets farther out.

 Leif: My compliments to our commander of intelligence for that incisive report, (Marion happily acknowledging Leif's comment) keep it up and we'll all be home soon, soon after we're all dead!

 Edack: All right, that's enough Leif. Marion, thank you for your support, er.. report. We'll start the search in the Degoba system.

 Everyone: Degoba system? (looking confused)

 Edack: Decora system, I meant to say Decora, not degoba. 

Everyone: Oh (relief).

 :bleep heard:

 Desarianna: what was that?

 :bleep, bleep:

 Marion: It sounds like it's coming from somewhere in this room!

 Leif: Bravo stupendous ideous!

 :bleep, commander, commander  Edack are you there?:

 Frank: Sir, I believe it is coming from your touch activated Una-Link.

 Edack: So it is, (touching it) Captain Edack here.

 Kelby: Emergency on deck 3! (whole ship starts shaking)

 Edack: (touching his Una-Link) Report, report! (ship shakes again)

Kelby: Deck three has been breached by brackles.

 Edack: Breached by brackles! How many are there?

 Kelby: It's hard to tell sir. My brackle sensor shows six but they could be hiding up to more in their pouches.

 Edack: I hate it when they do that! All right men, it's time for action!  Olik, take a team up to deck three, eliminate the brackles!

 Olik: Excuse me sir, I don't think I follow you.

 Edack: That's right Olik, you don't follow me on this one, you will lead them. Everyone will be part of your team. Desarianna, you will stay with me, we will examine the situation from here and offer insight to you as it comes to us. At ease, er dismissed I meant dismissed.

 Leif: We're doomed.

 :fade out:

 :fade in deck three:

 Kelby: Thank goodness you're here, I wasn't sure how long I could hold them off by myself. What kind of fire power have you brought?

 Olik: Ted and Dana are working on on a flame-thrower but it may take a while (show two guys in the back, one eating beans out of a pot and the other one with a lighter.

 Kelby: What about now? If we don't do something the brackles will overrun our position!

 Olik: Uhhh (bleep) [captain edack: lieutenant Olik, are you there, Marion has a solution.] Go ahead, Marion.

 Leif: (to the guy next to him) We're saved.

 :cut to meeting room:

 Marion: (over the Una-Link) Just throw your flashlights at the beasts!

 :cut to deck three:

 Olik: thanks Marion, that's a big help (shaking his head).

 Frank: Excuse me Lieutenant, I may have a solution.

 Olik: Ok, hold on a sec, Desarianna, take Ted and Dana up ahead and give that flame thrower idea a whirl.

 Desarianna: Yes Sir! (She, Ted- who is still eating beans, and Dana- practicing the lighter, run up the corridor a bit, Desarianna and the other two disappearing up ahead).

 Olik: Sorry Frank, Proceed.

 Frank: Sir, Brackles cannot stand energy on the filik wavelength. I believe we can remodulate our flashlights' frequency converters thus generating a filik beam.

 Olik: Desarianna, how's it going up there? (Huge fire ball seen in the farther section of the corridor, screams heard).

 Ted: (out of sight but audible) are you trying to kill us Dana? How many times do I have to tell you, you've got to let it drift a bit before you touch it off!

 Dana: (heard as Desarianna starts talking) Well sorry, mister master flame thrower!

 Desarianna: We're having some problems and will have to fall back any second sir.

 Olik: Yes, wait for my signal then run right past us, we've got a surprise for them.     Frank, report!

 Frank: I would like to go down to the lab and run a few trials first, but I think they will work.

 Leif: Why not call Marion up here and test it on her?

 Olik: As much as I'd like to test them, we don't have the time. Frank, pass them around. Desarianna, (activating the Una-Link) fall (Desarianna and Dana run past, Ted a little behind them, his pants around his ankles) back.

 (everyone poised) :fade out to shouts of "fire" by Olik and laser sounds:

 :fade in to the meeting room: (Marion and Edack both under the table as the others come in, all covered with soot, cuts, or bruises, all looking puzzled about why they are under the table).

 Marion: Well just go on and jump me Captain Edack! (everyone coming from the battle looking shocked. Ted finally pushes through yelling "we won, we won!"- pants still around his feet- falling to the floor).

 Ted: hey can I play winner?

 (everyone bends down to see Marion and Edack playing checkers.)

 :fade out to laughter:
