A shocked aspect came over Skylos grimace as he stared at the planet. Shaking his caput he looked closely at his tool. This was n't terra firma ! He 'd recently been there the coordinates were entirely damage. Entering all the selective information that he knew about ground Skylos waited for the computer to render an explanation.

'' I am bad to differ with you Queen Twitty ! '' Skylos told her. `` We are at the wrong coordinates for earth. ''

Twitty her eyes still wide turned to stare at Skylos. `` I do n't deal ! I spent two quants on that primitive person mud Lucille Ball ! I know earth when I see it, though now that you mention it, it does look to be ... wrong ! ''

'' incorrect my tabby ? '' Skylos asked a little perplexed. `` In what way ? ''

'' I 'm not certainly. '' She said as she stared hard at the look-alike. `` It 's like things are missing and a few others are there that I do n't remember being there. ''

Skylos held his lingua as he awaited the readout from the computer. Four spectons later he was staring at the read-out his mouth hanging open air. Dropping like a John Rock into the command prat he continued to shake his principal.

Twitty shook Skylos when he failed to reply her interrogative sentence. `` Uh ... '' He said an almost vacant look in his center.

'' Damn it commandant ! '' Reaching back she slapped him across his face. `` What is wrong ? ''

'' I ca n't believe it ! It ca n't be potential ! '' Was all that Skylos could say.

Sighing Twitty reared back slapping Skylos again almost knocking him out of the mastery chair. `` Wake the nether region up Commander before I forget and strike you with my chela ! '' Twitty advised the wire tomentum clan male.

eye blink a few times the commander reached up rubbing the side of his face. Turning to wait at Twitty she could see that the vacant look was all but gone.

'' Acor ... according to this, '' he said indicating the readout. `` This is earth, but ... ''

'' Told you it was earth ! '' Twitty said with a smug grin.

'' Yes but it is n't the earthly concern we know ! '' Skylos spoke up.

'' What ? ! What in the hell do you intend ? '' Twitty asked.

According to this we are in the past tense. I ran it twice to reassert. This is the earth but it was in this perspective four hundred forty six and a one-half quants ago. ( One thousand one hundred seventeen days on earth. )

'' WHAT ! ! ! ! ? ? ? ? '' Niaco and Glenna heard Twitty call. `` Have you lost your mind ! ? ''

Niaco leaned over to Glenna speaking to her. Rising Glenna nodded walking into the ship 's command.

Glenna could see that Twitty was getting more upset by the moment, poor Skylos was looking lost.

'' What in the name of the great feline is going on in here ? '' Glenna asked.

'' I ... he ... it is ... ARGH ! '' Twitty roared as she ran from the room a feeling of disbelief on her side.

Skylos was still staring square ahead shaking his mind.

Grasping his case Glenna looked into his heart, `` Explain whatever it was that you did to king Twitty, to me. ''

Skylos nodded as he held up the read-out. Glenna looked it over as Skylos repeated what he had to Twitty. Glenna could only nod as he went through each part again. Looking at the readout she was also shaking her foreland, the datum tended to accord with his assessment.

'' I do n't acknowledge how we got here. I do n't completely understand it. According to the data point it was like time stopped and we were shoved backwards. The matter is ? I have absolutely no idea how we are to get back. '' A moment later an dismay started on the console.

Glenna looked at it then Skylos as he sprang into action. `` What seems to be the problem ? '' She asked.

'' I was afraid of this. All the repairs we did are only irregular. We 're going to have to set down so we can make far good resort outside as well as inside. The thing is I 'm not surely we can land. The power grid is so imperfect we might crash, if we do n't then we 'll be seriously depleted Energy wise. '' Skylos told her as he started to begin an approach of the major planet.

Running out Glenna advised the others that they had to land, plus they might crash. Twitty upon hearing this ran for the locomotive engine elbow room.

Skylos was sweating heater shaking his head he had to try, they had to outlast. On net approach Skylos said a prayer to the big feline when the power increased ! `` I do n't cognize what 's going on but we might make it now. '' Skylos told all those onboard.

'' Though I still ca n't believe what you said I am not about to crash either ! Another specton and I might have you a little more. '' Came the voice of Twitty.

'' We are at forty five percent. Another ten we might still take in power when we land. '' Skylos told her.

'' I 'm on it ! '' There was a surge for a bit then the power started to climb another nine pct. `` Damn it ! That 's it I ca n't coax anymore. ''

'' It 's good, make sure the rest are secured then yourself. I can hold this for two spectons, then we HAVE to land ! '' Skylos told her.

'' Going now ! '' Twitty shouted then disconnected.

Saint Ambrose felt the deck lurch a bit as he tried to open his eyes. poop whatever in the the pits that was wore him out ! Groaning Saint Ambrose tried to sit up finding it was taking all he had just to prompt ! Suddenly he heard Niaco and Glenna 's voices.

'' We have to secure him and Adina. '' He heard Glenna saying. `` Skylos said we have to put down to remediate the ship. Though I am afraid we might dash. ''

'' clangoring ? Are we that damaged ? '' Niaco asked.

'' We appear to be, though I saw Twitty heading for the engine room. Let 's hope there 's Sir Thomas More she can do. '' Glenna explained.

Niaco nodded then Roth and the early knight lifted Ambrose to get him secured. Wrena and the early fighter carefully lifted Adina getting her into a more unafraid status. Quickly they all secured themselves as Twitty ran for the control room.

Skylos looked up as soon as Twitty entered. `` You need to get secured ... '' He started.

Growling Twitty told him, `` There is no way you can land alone and you know it ! I may only have fundamental frequency navigation and piloting, I do sleep together when a pilot film needs service. '' Skylos started to protest Twitty growled again quickly quieting him.

Sighing Skylos nodded then concentrated on the task at hand. `` Damn it ! The stabilizers are dull ! Even with the boost you got this is still going to be rough. See if you can diagram a course to an open area, '' Skylos instructed her.

Twitty nodded as she started to skim the topography, suddenly a gasp came from her. `` I know that construction ! '' She said. `` It 's called Acropolis ! It looks almost new ! '' Turning to look at Skylos she nodded. `` I accept now what you said. ''

Skylos nodded barely paying her tending as the planet was quickly approaching. `` I 'm afraid I am going to have to book off on the retros until the finale minute to lay aside power. ''

'' Alright, I have adjusted aero louvre to avail compensate when we enter the atmosphere. '' Twitty responded. She just hoped that they did n't fare in too dissolute or the tail fin would be gone in bare tintons !

'' I 'll assay to glide in as soon as we hit the Ionosphere. There 's barely enough there for the fins to have an effect. '' Skylos informed Twitty. `` Four hundred maclons to the exosphere, hang on it 's going to be a little bumpy with the stabilizer at half ! ''

Rapidly approaching the planet they were having to fight the total time to maintain control. Suddenly with a lurch they hit the first layer. `` Entering the exosphere, make sure the cuticle are up or we 're make ! '' Skylos told her.

'' amphetamine four maclons a half tinton and starting to slow ! '' Twitty informed Skylos.

'' Good, keep an eye on it, wee-wee for sure we are at that, or lower ! '' Skylos replied.

Twitty nodded as she started to line up the aero fins Sir Thomas More and Thomas More. `` I 'm reading the thermosphere rapidly approaching ! '' Twitty advised as the ship shook a bit then settled. `` Shields are up but straining. ''

'' Damn it ! We need them almost all the way to the airfoil ! Compensating now. '' Skylos said as the shaking lessened then the ship was still. `` I think that should help. ''

Twitty was nodding when the ship lurched again. `` striking with the ionosphere ! Trying to adjust, the aero fins
are starting to heat up ! '' Twitty 's hands were flying across the attitude ascendence of the 5. `` Ah ! bettor temperature dropping ! ''

'' bread and butter an eye on then. We 're only halfway, I 'd say we 've got another thirty two hecksons ( about L miles ) until the surface. If we can name twenty two hecksons we should be ok. '' Skylos told Twitty.

looking at over at him Twitty saw that he was sweating as he had a near last grip on the ascendance.

Almost ten spectons later they broke through the clouds. Twitty had a line plotted not too far from the huge Great Pyramid building she 'd seen earlier.

'' Landing site ahead, '' Twitty advised Skylos as she also applied press to the control.

'' Damn it ! The mightiness is almost gone we have to land now ! Or we might not make it ! '' With that Skylos pointed almost heterosexual person toward the ground then pulled up as he sighed when the retros came on.

'' Coming in a trivial fast Skylos ! '' Twitty yelled above the straining ship.

'' Yes I know ! '' There was a sudden shakiness as the ship started to hop, its cuticle barely keeping the ship off the ground. Cursing under his breath Skylos tapped into the last of the king. Shaking the ship stopped, half buried not far from the heavy pyramid.

Getting up Twitty ran to check the others. Looking around the room almost all of them were alright though it appeared that Thomas 's arm was broken. Checking the male they had captured, Twitty looked at Thomas shaking her top dog. She found the male person 's neck opening had been snapped when something heavy had collided with him. Again she looked at Thomas and his let on arm.

'' I 've got him my queen, '' Mileen told her a moment later. `` He tried to secure the prisoner. He was thrown against the bulk head. '' Here Mileen growled low. `` I should break-dance the other just to teach him a deterrent example ! ''

Twitty 's eyes went wide then she whispered to Mileen. `` If you did then you 'd have to ingest care of him. Are you really prepared for that ? Now ? ''

Mileen thought a moment then shook her head no bowing to Twitty.

Skylos came stumbling out of the command running back to the engine room. Twitty on his paws. Looking around Skylos nodded then sighed. `` Thank the with child felid ! We still have exponent. Though it is going to take a lot of work to fix everything. First matter we need to find the metal, then we 'll need liquid taak'in to re-power the engines. ''

Twitty was nodding the whole time. `` What is the first matter we need to do ? ''

'' I 've got barely enough left to run down the ship but we 'll take to get the taak'in soon. I am not wanting to try and resume the engines manually. We have to maintain at least one engine online. ''

Sighing Twitty left as Skylos set about scanning the ship. Walking to where the others were Twitty revealed their almost heroic place.

'' Taak'in ? Is n't that a common worthless metal ? It 's so soft it has hardly any use but for energy. '' Niaco replied.

'' On our public yes, though this is earthly concern although be it one C of quants in the past. It was toilsome to feel in our clip when Ambrose and I were here. I just hope the local anesthetic are n't too war like. Would n't require to end up killing all of them to get what we need to get back. '' Twitty told all of them.
With a groan Ambrose finally managed to get his eye open. `` No, '' he whispered still weak. `` We will not shoot down any of them. You still do n't bang where we are do you Twitty. '' Ambrose told her.

'' Ambrose ! '' Three distaff voices shouted as they all tried to sit him up. Then Twitty thought about what St. Ambrose had said.

'' No mate I only know that the construction that we are most is and was called Acropolis. '' Twitty told him.

Ambrose nodded slightly barely able to restrain his mind up. `` It 's called Acropolis in Toniná, Chiapas. ''

Ambrose waited as what he 'd just said sank in. `` You mean to secern me that THIS is THAT Acropolis ! ! ? ? '' Niaco almost shouted. `` The place that our antecedent launched from to take root the twelve worlds of the realm ! ''

Saint Ambrose got a grin on his face as he watched the warring emotions play across Twitty 's face. `` That 's why you went there ! Even with the judgment shield you somehow knew ! '' Twitty said her sass open staring at Ambrose with awe.

'' I was n't really sure until I found this. '' Ambrose said as he pulled a belittled gold laurel wreath from his sack. `` It 's the same one that I wear now. ''

Twitty stared at the one around Saint Ambrose 's neck, then the one he held in his compass. `` The antediluvian royal insignia, '' Twitty said with a gasp. `` How ? I never saw you pick it up. I was with you the whole clock time ! ''

Ambrose smiled as he nodded. `` I obviously put this where I knew I would calculate later. I happened to lean against the wall opening move where this was hidden. I think that 's when the shield started to snap. I kept this as it held a lot of some impression to me in my psyche though I knew not what. ``

A moment later Skylos came walking through on the way back to command. Stopping he bowed to Ambrose. `` Well sire I hope you are feeling better. '' Skylos said.

'' I 've been better police captain, '' Ambrose said as he watched the surprise look on Skylos face. `` How bad is the price ? ''

Sighing Skylos started in on what he 'd feel. `` The simple fact that we landed with nearly carapace in situation kept structural harm to nix. I am afraid though, that the power grid is seriously depleted. We have to find a large amount of liquid state Taak'in or we might never entrust. ''

St. Ambrose was nodding as he was trying to remember something that he 'd learn before about this part of earth 's history. `` As I remember in our prison term Taak'in was n't that readily available on earth. Though on well-nigh of the twelve planets it 's a common useless soft metal. ''

'' Yes forefather I know. I just hope we can find out adequate to get quad worthy. We know not what the atmosphere here might hold upon us. '' Skylos said a little hesitantly. Remember the earth of our sentence we had to possess special medicine in order to observe controller. ''

'' I remember Captain. '' Looking around at all of them Ambrose sat taller as he told them. `` Limit being outside as much as possible, Twitty both you and Skylos try not to be seen. I know we landed not far from Acropolis, watch each other as much as possible. I want all of you to watch as much as possible. I need to ill-use out as soon as potential. ''

St. Ambrose arose on shaky legs as he stepped toward the hatch. `` Sire ? '' Skylos suddenly looked up from an instrument with wide of the mark eyes. `` According to this you have Taak'in on you ! It 's in an impure form but I am reading Taak'in ! ''

Ambrose nodded as Skylos stepped up to him with a small electronic pad. Skylos started to hap it slowly over Ambrose listening as the gimmick started to beep faster. Finally Skylos stopped at a pocket of Saint Ambrose, reaching in Ambrose brought out the medallion. This of course of action made the device go demented !

Skylos center got large when he looked at the reading on the twist. `` Sire, follow me please ? '' Ambrose nodded as everyone went back to the engine elbow room. Opening a venire Skylos, reaching in, withdrew a container with a iniquity burned looking lumpy metallic element in it.

'' May I try something sire ? I do n't believe it will harm the medallion. '' Skylos asked.

Ambrose handed the Captain the decoration. Watching Skylos carefully placed the medallion in the center of the inside chamber. Nodding Skylos closed the panel then flipped a few switches then a few more. Suddenly respective machines that had been silent came to life history !

Nodding Skylos turned to all of them. We have twenty dollar bill five percent mogul for now. Though I ca n't keep it there that long as it is a solid descriptor. It will help to facilitate fix faster. We have to bump more sire soon ! ''

Nodding Ambrose again walked to the hatching he had to get out for a few moments. They all needed to in parliamentary law to go along sane. Looking at the purview screen Ambrose saw that no one had ventured near yet, good ! Maybe they 'd stay away until they left. Ambrose smiled then shook his chief they never had luck that good !

Stepping out Ambrose took a mystifying lung cleansing breath as did the others. Nodding Saint Ambrose could almost feel the difference that the air in the ship and out here made. Shaking his headway he could sense his felid side trying to take over ! the pits at this pace they would last more than a few hours before they might buckle under.

Ambrose was turning to sit when he heard a small vocalization. What the hell ? That was in our oral communication ! No one on land knew the nomenclature the of the Felim race ! Did they ? Looking around he heard it again almost like it was muffled.

Walking back towards the aero fins he started to hear it a bit more. `` helper ! Father of the Church ! Help me delight ! It 's getting heard to breathe ! ''

holla Saint Ambrose sprung into action mechanism as he started to fox rocks and dirt away from the merchantman of the aero fin. `` Where are you ! '' St. Ambrose was roaring.

'' Hello ? I can barely try individual. You are above me ! Please for the mercy of Cit-Chac-Coh. Please save me ! '' The female vocalism was saying.

Ambrose felt the muscular tissue in his arms start to pine as he dug and pulled faster. `` nearly there ! '' He yelled as he was already almost two foot down under the fin.

Beside him three of his knights were also digging as fast as they could. Finally two spectons later Saint Ambrose broke through. A Thomas Young woman 's face appeared as she started to throw her weapon around Ambrose then stopped. a smell of great shock on her font as she could only stare at all four of the beingness in front of her.

Falling to her knees Ambrose heard her rustling. `` Thank you Cit-Chac-Coh, I am sorry I almost threw my arms around you. I thank you and your guards for saving me. How may I serve you ? ''

Saint Ambrose 's back talk dropped open ! Cit-Chac-Coh ? By the slap-up feline ! That was the dead on target epithet they used to forebode the big feline ! She thought he was the majuscule feline ! ! ? Shaking his head, ‘ Great,'he thought, ‘ that was all he needed right now !'

'' Please arise young woman. '' Looking at the others Ambrose closed his eyes reverting to his human form. Opening his eyes he saw all his knight with a horrified look. Looking at the shaking female they nodded then very slowly reverted to their seldom used homo phase. `` There is that bettor ? ''

The young char looked up her mouth in a enceinte O. `` It is as you wish. '' She said as she could only stare .
