Klocken trotted around quickly realizing the creature who's shape it had taken was not among the dominant species. he however remained in the shape, as he oft liked to be small. also the more attractive gender, he assumed females, seemed quite drawn to the combination of adorable animal and precious mineral. he quickly spoted another member of his crew and called out Sheen! are you alright?

Sheen glanced back through the fence and smiled in relief Klocken!! It's really you? she knelt down, pressing her face against teh chain link I was getting scared
Terri backed up a step,. First a talking panther cat thing...now a diamond dog? She sat down, hard.

Klocken allowed himself to pass through the fence and took on a humanoid shape. If we ever find the captain again, I WILL KILL HIM! he put us on an island. surrounded by water! he knows i dissolve easily. I mean if it had been an ocean of sulfuric acid, that would have been no big deal but..... who's that? the last part was directed about Terri

Once he had coem through teh fence, Sheen hugged him, purred a moment the backed off. That is a biped...I landed in her yard here...on a watering device. I'm glad you didn't end up in my spot...have you seen the others?
Terri opened her mouth...shut it...opened...shut...diamond dog human thing...

Sheen held out her hand...then her stomach rumbled. She sighed I hate these things...freaky little babble fish...they wiggle... she gingerly accepted one and slid it in her ear.
Her fur stood up or a moment and her stomach rumbled again. I'm going t okill teh captain to... she growled I can't afford to be stuck here...
Terrii meanwhile blinked...fish in people's ears...okay...She tilted her head back and screamed.
Sheen's fish calmly informed her that it could not interpret such a noise.

"Put.... Fish.... In .... Ear." Klocken said slowly. he said it slowly for two reasons. one was that he thought the human might be stupid. two was that the babble fish wasnt used to translating to a language other than that of its wearer.

Sheen sighed and crouched in front of the girl. She tried to smile reassuringly, unfortunately, she had large teeth. She finally resorting to simply muffling the girls mouth with her hand until the girl got the idea and shut up.
Blessed things does make alot of noise... she muttered. Sheen then fished another language whiz from the jar and held it out to the girl.
Terri, for her part, tried to calm down she truly did try...she took several deep breathes after noting that her cat person handn't tried to hurt her...She sat, quivering and pale and looked at the fish that was winking at her "It goes in my ear?! Ewwww!"
Sheen got fed up, even maternal instincts and previous kindness only goes so far...and slaspped her hand to the girld ear, holding it there until the fish was secure. There. Testing...can you understand me? I know it feels odd when it wiggles...
Terri blinked...now she could understand the cat...but there was a fish in her ear...that was it. She stood uyp and ran for the house, hoiping she'd make it to the bathroom in time.

"New York's Central Park." Nexus read from a sign above the gate. "It's a park. Whatever that is."
They had made it through and were now standing on the sidewalk just outside the gate. "Where too now?"
They looked up and down the street and Nexus tugged on Th'n's ear. "Hey look, a map." He pointed up at a bus stop sign with a small route map attached. Th'n stood up and placed the mouse on level with the sign.

Listen honey. yes we are aliens, no we arent abducting you, no we dont want you to take us to your leader, and yes we did just insert a fish into your ear. I can give you the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy if you want it. it would explain alot. Klocken relaxed into a more fluid like state. he was not fluid but rather a collection of crystaline granules the functioned as cells.it allowed him to change shapes as needed. unfortunately he could not hide his diamond like color. Now if you promise not to scream again we can have what passes for a civilized conversation on this diety forsaken world.

I don't think that's why she's running... Sheen said as a door slammed shut somewhere in teh house.
Terri, for her part, did make it the bathroom in time to lose her lunch with some dignity away from the aliens as the odd flopping sensation in her ear contnued.

Sheen shrugge dto herself and followed. Perhaps the girl would know how to find their shipmates...
*********
Outside city park, there was a loud siren sounds and a car pulled up in front of the new arrivals. Then men in eyth front seat looked at each other, looked over the slightly hysterical report again, and decided these were the perps.
"Freeze! Put your hands up and do not move! You have the right to remain silent, the right to an attorney. Anything you say can and will be used against you!"

Th'n turned around quickly, forcing Nexus to grab onto his ear when the flashing lights and men arrived. He froze, staring at the pair that exited the vehicle.
Th'n growled, "Nexus, what do they want?"
Puzzling over the words the mouse replied, "They said don't move, I believe we are in trouble. Here, I doubt they can hear me so you must communicate."
Th'n nodded and listened to the mouse's words, then in a gravelly voice repeated, "Sup'...dogs. Don't be...hatin...its all god...we're just pasting shrew."
"Through, passing through." Nexus corrected but Th'n only shrugged and waited for a response.
"Such an odd language," he commented quietly.

The cops blinked. Such broken words coming from a truly fanged mouth was disturbing to say the least. ONe stayed in eth car and called in heavy backup...the other pointed his gun at them "Remain standing with your hands above your head..." he really hoped these guys were just in costume...
