The corner of Ora's lip lifted slightly. "This won't be a pit stop. Can you take them back or not?"
"Do you intend to shoot me?" The doctor asked with a shrug.

"Well... no, I guess not. You were rather agreeable." Jarred paused, looking awkward. "Thank you, then. Goodbye." He turned for the door.

"You learn how not to get shot when you work for the Kore." The doctor said simply, "And if anyone asks, you didn't come here first."
Ora smiled, "I didn't intend on dying, but if you'd all like to come with me to try and take on the stone and Lux, you're free to do so. First we should find Pendari, though."

"Step ahead." Jarred said, already following the doctor's directions.
"Sahwnds ah plahn thehn."
Arch nodded at the doctor, moving out. He walked into the hallway, out of sight, and waited near the door, sensing for any "I'mma betray'em!" feelings from the doc as everyone else started moving.

The doctor just continued with cleaning his instruments. He really wasn't in the in mind for caring, although he had failed to mention that Pendari's room was monitored and the Kore would be alerted of the intruders the moment they entered.
Ora nodded, "It does indeed." She wouldn't have dragged Jarred or other humans after the stone, but Arch and Ruby were another story, and she had no arguments on the matter.
They reached the room, which had the standard lock on its door.

Jarred eyed the door, and reached for his PDA. He paused, smiling, an hefted his flak cannon.
"Lannen, you can do that teleport think Ora did, right? Could you teleport in there, grab her, and then get out without messin' with the door?"
"Ayeh, sihmple naugh. Thihnk theih gahwt theh dahwr rihgehd?"
"No, but if I got and pick a lock, let alone break one, someone's gonna find out."
Arch shrugged. "Cannah ahwrguh thahwt." And blinked in.

The room was simple enough, with a couch or two and a good wide viewing of Space outside.
The moment Arch blinked in, however, he was greeted with a rather large gravity pulse, as Pen neither new him or recognized him, and assumed he was part of the Kore.

The moment the gravity hit him, he blinked behind her, the force dissipating over the blink. "Ohwld yehr dhamnhed ahwrsehs. Ahm whit Shanra." Arch said, holding his hands up, even though one held a rifle.

Pen stared at him, the only thing she understood in the whole sentence, being "Shanra." She held her ground ready to smack him into a wall if necessary. "Jarred? Where is Jarred?"

Pen started walking towards the door. "Jarred! What the hell are you doing here?! And why did you not turn around and run when you got the chance?!" She didn't know if he could hear her or not, but it was definitley stress relieving.

"If you try anything stupid, I will tear off that arm of yours like it was paper." She warned, but put her hand in his.

"Ah seih waih Jarred laiwhkes yeh." Arch chuckled, taking her hand. The two of them appeared out in the hall.
"Pen! You alright?" Jarred said, walking up to her, looking her up and down. "Your arm, they fixed it?"

Pen glared at Jarred. "Why are you here? I worked my a** off to keep you from getting killed by these people. And you walk right back into their arms." Despite her words she moved over and hugged him, far more appreciative that he came to get her than she'd dare show. She added a quick "Hi Sara," before pulling back.
"Yes, they fixed it, but likely added tracking devices, a bomb or two, and a few other things to further their control over me. If anyone has an ax, or sword, or other piece of equipment I could use to hack it off, that would be helpful." She glanced down the hallway. "Do you have your ship here? We should hurry if we want to get out undetected."
