"Tall White Lady IS a stupid name, Y'know. You really ought to pick a good name", Neon said slyly, looking over at the human man coming across the hangar toward them. Tall White Lady smiled and laughed as a small solid looking planet formed in her hand. "Like what? Like 'Neon'? The absolutely WORST picked name in the history of names? You're shy, reclusive and hide as much as you can, letting no-one come close, little sniper girl!" "Anyway, this is the 'secret planet' in those files inside the necklace. I got it to change shape, give some new armor and now project a 'Snart' image, what ever that is. Lots of amazing stuff in this artifact necklace", Tall White Lady almost laughed as she saw Neon flash colorfully, and color drain from most of her hands. They all looked over as Narchi yelled at Floona on the Trow Saucer, "Enough posing! Just remember to NOT over-correct! The Relative Inertial Frame will be hyper-resposive. You got that, you two?" Floona hefted the CURE and waved a 'V' sign to tell Narchi to screw-off, and Kenji yelled over his shoulder, "Got it! T-minus five to launch!" Kenji smiled over at Neon, who was fussing with her hair, and smiling him. He said to Tall White Lady,"Hey,TWL! Take care of Lime for me? I'll be wingman for Floona in my old Thunderbolt. Museum quality replica with MMI's in it, ready for race day, except now I'm chasing light-speed!" Lime said in amazement, "WOWEE! Can you do any other tricks?" TWL smiled and snuffed out the planet, and said warmly,"Yes. I can give you a hug, you little lug-nut! Stop futzing with that damned bow! It's hiding a big rip! Good luck, and god-speed, Kenji! Take care of Floona, out there!" A voice came over the PA system, "This is Jeet, Acting Flight Control Officer! T-minus FOUR minutes to launch! All pilots to your planes! The patrols are getting closer! We may launch launch early! All humans in the hangars to your positions for blockade!" Neon kissed Kenji on the mouth and ran over and grabbed up her sniper-rifle, saying,"For luck!" She disappeared out of a hatch-way, followed by Narchi. Floona flashed a 'thumb's up' and sealed the saucer up. Tall White Lady scooped up Lime and said as Kenji sealed up, running for the other hangar, "Look well and remember forever, Lime. You were there when a new world was born. A world without the barriers of slavery, and prejudice born of race and the chains that enslave each person's heart." A pounding came from the main doors followed by shouting,"OPEN UP! POLICE! WE ARE AUTHORIZED TO USE DEADLY FORCE! OPEN UP!" Jeet came one last time from the PA,"LAUNCH WHEN READY! LAUNCH WHEN READY!" Tall White Lady glanced at Floona's craft and whispered,"Godspeed,you two!" She made it to the far door when the main doors blew in. --TO BE CONTINUED!--
