William took both stones and joined them together in hopes that it displayed unity then moved the two together across the line “I say that strength in numbers is our safest bet, you seem to be as trapped in here as we are” He said in the same calm voice. He then nodded his head in an affirmative manner, displaying his own human way of saying yes.

The alien leader seemed almost pleased based on Will’s display, the big meaty fists of both arms reached across and heartily slapped Will on both shoulders knocking him about a little bit winded. Showing the aliens had great strength on hand if they wanted. Chattering something in his own tongue he moved his own stones across the line to Will’s side then stood up looking to his fellow alien group. Shouting something in his alien tongue the group replied in something that sounded like an echo of the same words. The group then seemed to relax seeming more bodily posture friendly to the Chernov group.

Overhead the alien computer spoke =/\= Group Alpha and Beta joint union cooperation confirmed. Moving to final test parameters. =/\= It said. Around them the sense of disorientation was felt by everyone, and a brief feeling of fading in and out of consciousness was realized before clarity returned, both groups would find they still held their assorted stone tools and weapons but were now within some sort of metallic blue corridor like before. To their left was a dead end, the corridor strode to the right being the only way forward, ending in a large circular door. =/\= Final testing parameters have now begun, group alpha and beta will compete as a joint force against enemy forces or perish. =/\= The alien voice said in both their tongues as the door opened. Ahead in the dimly lit large room more growls like before came forth this time mixed with sharp chirps like a bird of some sort.

Next to Will the alien leader gripped his large stone axe. Grunting at the alien computer voice it looked to Will still assuming he was the leader it seemed of the Chernov group. “..Sha shush la don!” The alien leader said looking to the rest as if in a battle cry. “..Sha shush la don!!” Was echoed by the other aliens.

Chris was very pleased at Will! He would have to put him in for an accommodation when and if they get back. Then he felt light headed and when he regained himself he found that they were in those damn rooms again.

Hearing the growls from the corridor up ahead Chris shook his head and looked around at their new allies. “Will! Do you remember ancient combat tactics from Rome and Greece? Don’t have them charge in. Keep them out here and let whatever come to us. Make a Spartan phalanx with the shielded dudes and then make a Roman wedge coming out from there with the people that have long weapons. ” He said as he tried to crawl to a better position to observe.

“Mr Taggart is right. We don’t know the enemy, they know us. The aliens- they seem strong. They might be able to support the main shield wall.”

-Dr Alex Reid, CE

“Right, I’ll explain the intricacies of ancient Roman warfare to the Lizardmen” Will said sarcastically, open warfare was not his area of expertise that was certain. He looked back “Alright Starfleet you heard your Captain, spearmen form up in a straight line” It suddenly occurred to him that this was the first melee battle he was involved in. He grabbed the ax he had been supplied by Blaze and lowered himself to his knees as if for prayer. He closed his eyes and focused his mind. A few deep breaths later he raised his head with a crack. As he stood up more cracks could be heard. When he was finally back on his feet he was relaxed, holding his weapon with much more confidence and casualness than before. “Well then” B smiled in the direction of the bird-like noises “Let’s get crackin’” His voice was unfamiliar, he sounded excited.

Their new alien allies looked to their leader who looked to Will when he spoke, once the Starfleet crew got into position without any better means to communicate the aliens assembled in a triangle formation around the Starfleet crew. The growls from inside the large arena like room ahead came again with more urgent chirping like sounds or were they hand claps now? It was hard to tell. Something then swooped by the entrance with pink/purple like skin tones chased by one of the large toothy beasts they had encountered before in their initial escape. Evidently maybe there was a third group of aliens in this mess of testing?

Their alien allies chittered at the sight their leader grinning broadly as if sharing a private enjoyable jest. With another raise of his meaty fists he led the open charge of his group out into the open arena.

Mwezi joined the ranks of the alien allies, baring his teeth in preparation of this fight. It was primitive, but his jaw shape made fighting with biting a more effective strategy for him than a simple weapon. He’d do best in the front.

The alien growled slightly in readiness for the fight, and took his queues from the group as to his actions.

OCC: can Blaze have made a bow and some arrows so I can help fight. (Archery is my preferred form of combat)
