Once Grezz gave confirmation, his crew took their helmets off. The Ape gave off a grunt, as it bretahed out, what seemed to be spores of some kind. Soon the arachnid removed his helmet, along with the remaining survivors of Grezz's crew. Something quickly became apparant. All of teh crew seemed to exhale spores, and they all had pure white yes, with a seemingly dead look in them. "Our world is not much more merciful."Grezz explained, removing his helmet. His head vaguely resembled a komodo dragon, though it had four white eyes, as the others did, and a set of three feathers or antennae on his head. "Otherwise we would have no use for our hosts."Grezz said. As he spoke, his mouth didn't move at all.
Fenzo was a bit creeped out by the way the aliens looked. "Um...thats an...fascinating look you have there....." he said awkwardly.And i thought humans were the ugliest species, he thought.
"No need to attempt politness. I am very aware of our unsettling appearance."Grezz said, shaking his head lightly. "This is the predominant reason we tend to avoid other species, only making contact when we deem absolutely necessary."Grezz said. "Aret here any native animals near by?"Grezz asked, walking passed Ritt, looking around the base. "Captain, if there are any animals near by, chances are the Hindonians have exterminated them."The Ape said, stepping forward. "It's worth the effort."Grezz responded. "If there aren't any, is there anything we may be able to help with?"Grezz asked.
"Well i'm not sure about the animal thing. I think we have everything until control except humans are low on their food, there are no fruit nearby and no animals. The Turbans however can last an Earth month without food but i'm afraid humans are a step closer to extinction."
"Well, don't expect any help from our government. Again, we weren't sent here to aid with the war."Grezz said.
"Then how do your people deal with invasions?"
"We defend ourselves. Though, most seem to think our planet is more hazardous to them, then other worlds, due to our presence. The Depcys species is a sentient fungus. Though, due to being a fungus we are incapable of acting without a host, and thus we infect a being from our planet to act as our host. Most aliens we have encountered seemed to fear that we can spread to other species not native to our world."Grezz explained.
Oop: Let's wait for Dirk to post next.

(you guys can keep going i have stuff to do like im moving houses so i will be out)
"I see..." said Fenzo sounding interested. A loud boom was heard outside, a Turban soldier came in, panting, looking wounded and had a bloody face, he spoke in Turban, "Sir! More Hindonian tanks are approaching, and we're running out of ammo!", Fenzo sighed, "I guess we have no other choice but to abandon this base, we are clearly nor safe here! Round up all the men, we need to evacuate!", the soldier saluted and ran off. Fenzo turned to the Depcys, "I know you are have not adapted to war,but i highly suggest you come with us to avoid...well.....death..."
"We may have some creatures that can slow down the hindonians."The Arachnid offered. "We've been traveling from planet to planet collecting their alpha predators for study."She added. "We do not believe they are a viable option Gersha. Firstly they are most likely dead. We also initiated the decontamination protocols to prevent the predators from escaping onto this planet and wreaking havoc on its eco system."Grezz replied. "Well it's possible some survived. Afterall they do come from a wide array of planets. On top of that we only have one of each specimen. They would die before they could cause too much damage."Gersha replied.
"May it be okay for me to see these creatures?" Asked Fenzo
"No. Unless you want to march out back to my ship. I do however have their genetic data stored."Grezz replied.
"Hmmm I wonder if we could genetically modify some of my soldiers, one of my engineers could work on it." Fenzo suggested.
"We wouldn't recommend genetic augmentation."Grezz said. He had still yet to decide if he'd release the Predators or not.
"Well, what else would we do? Your so-called Predators are out in Hindonian territory and I can't risk the life of my men, also on the other hand, the Hindonians might discover the Predators and tame them themselves, so we might have another issue."
"We believe these Predators to be too violent and aggressive to be tamed. From our observations of them, most attacked anything that moved."Grezz said. "As we suggested, we think it would be wise to use the Predators to distract the Hindonians. The immediate attack would result in defensive attacks from the Hindonians, which would thus not only keep the Hindonians busy, but also kill off the surviving Predators."Gersha said. "Fine."Grezz responded finally. He held his left arm up and tapped the large purple circle in the middle of it, which changed to some sort of display. He pressed several buttons on it before lowering hsi arm. "We would suggest immediate Evacuation."He said.
Back at the ship, several Hindonian soldiers had gone aboard and were exploring the ship. The cages in the Cargo bay opened, as the remaining predators exited them. It wasn't long before the Predators had left the Cargo bay. Soon the Hindonians on the ship were attacked and quickly killed off, before the Predators made their way off the ship, and they immediately began slaughtering the nearby Hindonians.

"At least that distracts the enemy for a minute or two, we have a transmitter, maybe you contact your planet for some more assistance."
"They will not send aid. We didn't come here to aid you and the humans in your war. We came here to gain the genetic codes of any native non-sentient lifeforms we could, alongside the fungus."Grezz said.
"but what do you need the genetic codes for!?"
"To clone the Native animals. To preserve them and hopefulyl return them to Earth, or terraform a planet to replace it for them. The Fungus we simply wish to study. Perhaps we may learn something that could help us from it."Grezz explained.
