((OOC: Since it seems to be just me and Buzz, I'll try and start something involving, mainly, the two of them. Anybody else can jump in whenever, if they decide they want to join us. Go ahead and change the course of the plot or even create a plot, for all I care.  It just makes things more interesting.)) Ty walked down one of the many hallways that ran along the left wing of Star Command. He waved to a few other rangers who said hello, but other than that he didn't divert his attention from the person he was really looking for. "I have a real problem with sending you on this mission alone," Nebula had said to him. The ranger just rolled his eyes skyward at that comment. He could take care of himself. He did it plenty of times before, so why should this one be any different? Okay, so there were the times when he had really screwed up, but he tried to downplay those memories. As far as he was concerned, it wasn't his fault he was an 'accident waiting to happen'. Pushing the distracting thoughts aside, Ty continued to scan the faces of the passing rangers for that one familiar face that belonged his old academy buddy: Buzz Lightyear. "And I want you to go with Lightyear again," Nebula had added, with a strictness that enforced a message similar to 'do what you're told this time'. However, things between Buzz and Ty had evened out since the whole "wirewolf" incident on Canis Lunis. So, it wasn't as hard to go back on duty with his friend again. In fact, Ty was starting to look forward to having some familiar company, especially after enduring so many long assignments alone. Still, he couldn't spot Buzz and opted for an easier method: his wrist com. Ty flipped it open and dialed Buzz's number. "Hey Buzz, you there? It's Ty," he said into the com, hoping his pal would pick up. |

(( OOC: Been away from the comp for a bit :S. I'll be the same as in the Yahoo RPG. Only I'm changing her last name now LOL, Nichole Stratus. In science class and thought, good name, yup gonna change to that . Umm I'll jump onto the page with Buzz because Ty's on the phone and it's rude to disrupt people while they are on the phone. And this is happening before the com link call too so I won't disrupt Buzz either .)) Nichole Stratus was finally back on Star Command. After 5 years of settling peace treaties on the Planet Olos Nah she was back "home". She looked around, new faces had filled the station, new rangers were added to the force in five years. 'Well this is awkward' she thought. She was supposed to be heading down to Nebula's office to be reassigned to a new mission, possibly a team, but was side tracked by the only familiar face she had seen since she arrived on the station, Lightyear. 'Well glad that someone I know hasn't gone off'. Nichole walked up to her old aquantice from the academy days and greeted him, happy to see someone that might recognize her. "Hey Buzz, boy am I glad to see you. You're just about the only person I've recognized from before I went on my mission on this station. How have things been?" |

(( OOC: Whoa people were right, this quote button makes my life a lot easier .)) "Hey Buzz, boy am I glad to see you. You're just about the only person I've recognized from before I went on my mission on this station. How have things been?" Buzz looked at the Ranger before him and wondered just what in the galaxy what she was talking about and who she was. He looked at her face a little longer until it dawned on him, ahh Nichole, yes, how could he be so stupid? "Hey!! Been a long time, haven't seen you since the academy. Congratulations on your mission." he shook her hand to congratulate her on a job well done. "I've been up to, oh you know, same old stuff. Defending the galaxy, being a hero, protecting the universe from the threat of invasion of the Evil Emperor Zurg, sworn enemy of the Galactic Alliance. And I won the Employee of the month for the past 5 months" he shrugged grinning as he listed his greatest accomplishments. He was about to ask her how things went on the mission and small talk to pass the time when his com link beeped, "Excuse me, I have a call." "Hey Buzz, you there? It's Ty," he said into the com, hoping his pal would pick up. "Lightyear here," Buzz said over the com link, very buisness like, serious. "Hey Ty! What do you need? Xerox machine jammed again?" Buzz chuckled at his own joke. "That's really not in my jurisdiction you know." |

"That's really not in my jurisdiction you know." Nichole looked over his shoulder at the screen to see another familiar face. She waved, "Hey Ty!" |

"That's really not in my jurisdiction you know." ((OOC: Lol. How coincidental. My dad works for Xerox. )) Ty didn't look too amused by his joke. "Har har. Very funny, Buzz," he replied, suddenly seeing Nichole's face pop onto the screen also. He grinned. "Hey Nichole! When did you arrive?" He paused, just remembering what he was really calling for. His voice turned to a bit more serious tone. "But, uh, that's not really what I called to say. Actually, I called to tell you that Nebula wanted me to bring a partner - namely you, Buzz - to assist me on my latest assignment." "Says I could use all the help I could get or something along those lines," he muttered, getting back to the subject. "Anyways, there's something really wierd going on at Trade World. Residents have been reporting complaints with Star Command, but the LGMs can't seem to figure out what's been the cause of this chaos." He regarded his other academy friend with a grin. "And, Nichole, Nebula said I could use a partner or two, so would you like to join us?" he asked. "I know you've just come back from on a long mission and all, but - for some reason - Nebula's really set on me bringing some serious backup." He shrugged his shoulders lightly, drifiting to the more considerate side of things. "However, if you'd rather pass, that's fine with me too. I understand if you need a break - five year missions can be quite a strain." |

"I've got nothing else better to do anyways. Hey and on the way there we'll all catch up on things. We'll meet you in the launch bay Ty!" she reached over Buzz's shoulder, standing on tip toes and pressed the button to turn off his communicator, "Over and out!" She saw Buzz's kinda annoyed but amused glare in her direction after she had completely taken control of his com link, and smiled sweet and inocently, "Hehe. Well come on Buzz! I'll race you!" and off she took running without even giving him a 'On your marks get set go' taking a head start. "Come on slow poke!" She yelled down the hall back at him. It felt good to mess around and not be serious, five years of that got on her nerves. |

His voice turned to a bit more serious tone. "But, uh, that's not really what I called to say. Actually, I called to tell you that Nebula wanted me to bring a partner - namely you, Buzz - to assist me on my latest assignment." Buzz Nodded in agreement to the assignment he was given. Finally there might be something to do today. "Hehe. Well come on Buzz! I'll race you!" and off she took running without even giving him a 'On your marks get set go' taking a head start. "Come on slow poke!" quote] Buzz stood there with his face twisted trying to remember what was going on. Her words rolled in his mind as he just understood. "Slow poke...? Hey!! I'll show you slow!!!!" He took off after her down the hall. Now Buzz normaly wouldn't partake in such games, or running in the halls unless it was an emergancy for that matter. But she had challenged him and taunted him, he wasn't going to loose without a struggle, or at least trying anyways. But she had taken too much of a head start on him and won. Buzz stared at her trying to bring back the air to his lungs, "No fair, you had an unfair head start. In a fair race I would have won." he stood up trying to act tough but he was still trying to breath again. |

"No fair, you had an unfair head start. In a fair race I would have won." he stood up trying to act tough but he was still trying to breath again. "Ha!" Nichole tossed her head back to mock him. "Just face it Buzzy, you're a sore looser." she poked him in the nose. "And you need to learn how to breath when you run too," she pointed out his gasping for air while she stood there as if nothing happened. "But... I'll give you a fair run when we get back from the mission. Let's just wait for Ty." |

At that moment, the doors to the launch bay hissed open and Ty walked in, he spotted the two already standing there waiting for him. He smirked, seeing Buzz gasping for air, and could easily guess what had happened. "She beat'cha, huh?" he chuckled, patting him on the back. And he didn't even need a confirmation of that. The look on Nichole's face as opposed to Buzz's was proof enough. He grinned lopsidedly and jerked a thumb over to Star Cruiser 40. "Anyways, I was thinking we could take my ship," he said, starting to lead them over to it. "It's a bit smaller, but that just might make it easier to maneuver through traffic. And that's especially useful when it comes to Trade World traffic, believe me." |

"And you need to learn how to breath when you run too," she pointed out his gasping for air while she stood there as if nothing happened. "No I am not," He stood up finally, "And no I don't." "But... I'll give you a fair run when we get back from the mission. Let's just wait for Ty." "Alright, deal. Just remember to bring your running shoes," he chuckled crossing his arms. "She beat'cha, huh?" he chuckled, patting him on the back. And he didn't even need a confirmation of that. The look on Nichole's face as opposed to Buzz's was proof enough. Buzz Looked at him and made a face as to say 'hee funny.' but maybe that's what he got for the Xerox crack he made earlier. He grinned lopsidedly and jerked a thumb over to Star Cruiser 40. "Anyways, I was thinking we could take my ship," he said, starting to lead them over to it. "It's a bit smaller, but that just might make it easier to maneuver through traffic. And that's especially useful when it comes to Trade World traffic, believe me." Buzz looked over at Star Cruiser 40 with a faint glance of sadness. He wouldn't be flying? He wouldn't be captain? Not 42!!?? But he thought some more, it was Ty's mission, he was just a partner on this one. But it would be weird not being in the captain seat for once. But rule one for a Space Ranger is adaptation. "Alright, let's get moving then." Buzz started walking off in the direction of where Ty's ship was parked when he got a wicked smile. "Hey Nichole," he yelled over his shoulder. "GETSETGO!!" and he took off himself. |

"No I am not," He stood up finally, "And no I don't." Nichole laughed, there was no telling him anything, he shut out anything that didn't fit with his ego. It was better to be scielent and have his words then stand there and argue over a silly thing. She knew she would win in the end anyways. "Alright, deal. Just remember to bring your running shoes," he chuckled crossing his arms. She waved him off with a grinn. Oh he talked big, but he was going to loose big too, and with that attitude Nichole wasn't going to show her friend any mercy. At that moment, the doors to the launch bay hissed open and Ty walked in, he spotted the two already standing there waiting for him. He smirked, seeing Buzz gasping for air, and could easily guess what had happened. "She beat'cha, huh?" he chuckled, patting him on the back. And he didn't even need a confirmation of that. The look on Nichole's face as opposed to Buzz's was proof enough.." Nichole grinned a toothy grin giving Buzz a sorta 'haha' evil glance of victory. Now Buzz had two people that knew he lost. He grinned lopsidedly and jerked a thumb over to Star Cruiser 40. "Anyways, I was thinking we could take my ship," he said, starting to lead them over to it. "It's a bit smaller, but that just might make it easier to maneuver through traffic. And that's especially useful when it comes to Trade World traffic, believe me." Nichole followed Ty casually. She noticed Buzz wasn't too pleased with the fact that Ty would be in command of the ship. She kinda felt sorry for him...KINDA.. but in the end it might prove some good to have Buzz be second in command for once, knock him down to Earth and realize something. "Hey Nichole," he yelled over his shoulder. "GETSETGO!!" and he took off himself. "Some how I knew he was gonna do that," she said to TY, "I'll be right back, I have to teach some little boy a lesson." And she ran off after him as fast as she could, screaming through the launch bay at him, "Get back here Lightyear!" Before long she cought up with Buzz and they were side by side. The shocked glance on Buzz's face was priceless. How exactly could she keep up? Simple, she was just faster then he was. But she stayed back to match his speed just to taunt him. She was going to tie this one just to drive him nuts. |

"Some how I knew he was gonna do that," she said to TY, "I'll be right back, I have to teach some little boy a lesson." Ty laughed. "Hey, if you two are racing, you might as well count me in. . ." he said with a playful grin. "Cause I'm gonna beat the both of ya!" And she ran off after him as fast as she could, screaming through the launch bay at him, "Get back here Lightyear!" Before long she cought up with Buzz and they were side by side. The shocked glance on Buzz's face was priceless. How exactly could she keep up? Simple, she was just faster then he was. But she stayed back to match his speed just to taunt him. She was going to tie this one just to drive him nuts. Just as soon as he finished his remark, Ty took off alongside her, trying his best to keep up with her own speedy footsteps. She may have had a speed advantage, but Ty was shorter and lighter than Buzz. So, that made them more evenly matched. Ty noticed Nichole slow her speed as she reached Buzz. Perfect. Since she was the only one he knew for sure could outpace him, it was a chance he just couldn't pass up. Ty took that opportunity to bypass the both of them. He shot them a brief grin as he sped by. "See ya!" |

Simple, she was just faster then he was. But she stayed back to match his speed just to taunt him. She was going to tie this one just to drive him nuts. Buzz looked to his side, amazed at how fast she had caught up with him. He forgot she held the record for running the opstical corse in the shortest time. But she wasn't getting infront of him. "Haveing fun?" he asked. He was running on short breath but he wasn't about to give up. It only encouraged him to run harder. Just as soon as he finished his remark, Ty took off alongside her, trying his best to keep up with her own speedy footsteps. She may have had a speed advantage, but Ty was shorter and lighter than Buzz. So, that made them more evenly matched. Ty noticed Nichole slow her speed as she reached Buzz. Perfect. Since she was the only one he knew for sure could outpace him, it was a chance he just couldn't pass up. Ty took that opportunity to bypass the both of them. He shot them a brief grin as he sped by. "See ya!" Buzz Looked at Ty then back at Nichole. Eyes wide and in shock. Did he just see Ty move in front of them? No way! The two finaly cought up with Ty and stood before him. "Hey," Buzz said as he gasped for air. 'Alright, maybe I DO need to learn how to breath proporly when I run,' he thought. Well at least he beat Nichole. He looked at her slyly. "Well, how the mighty have fallen." |

"Haveing fun?" "Of course! But I'll have even more fun when I win," she smiled roostery. "I've even got a victory speach prepared just special for you." Just then Nichole watched a streek run past them. No way! Ty beat them? She did a double take herself, looking at Buzz just as amazed as he was. No freaking way! The two finaly cought up with Ty and stood before him. "Hey," Buzz said as he gasped for air. 'Alright, maybe I DO need to learn how to breath proporly when I run,' he thought. Well at least he beat Nichole. He looked at her slyly. "Well, how the mighty have fallen." Nichole got over her shell shock and came back at Buzz. "You fail to notice you didn't win yourself eaither mister." She stood there waiting for some witty remark to come from Buzz, but then started busting out with laughter. How silly it was to be acting like 5 year olds on a play ground. Who was faster, who won, who cares? There were more important things ahead instead of this. "Well congrats on beating us Ty," she nodded to acknowledge him. "But let's get moving. I'm sure whatever is on Trade World isn't waiting around long enough for us to debate fairness and rules on racing." she motioned to Ty's cruiser with her hand. "Captain?" |

"Thanks," he replied. Ty refrained from making any kind of victory speeches of his own - though he was tempted to. Instead he opted to be a good sport because, after all, they weren't a bunch of school kids. "You guys did good too." Without another word, Ty took Nichole's advice and led his friends inside Cruiser 40. It was one of the older models - made before 42 - but it wasn't inefficient by any means. Luckily, though, there were three stations for the makeshift team to work from. "Buzz, since I'm not gonna let you drive my ship, I'll give you the next best thing," he said, motioning to the seat next to his. "You're my copilot." Ty took his seat and strapped in, turning to look at Nichole. "You're free to do whatever you want," he said. "But there's another station over there, if you wanna take it. It's for the navigator." |
