Thanks to MK Sheppard, Rob Wilson, and Lord Rog.

The Hunting Lodge is now Officially open for any Zerg, Xenomorph, Orc,
Troll, Kzinti, and Ewok hunting.  The Medical staff suggests Thermal
Detonators and repulsor clubs for hunting Ewoks but most think they
are just trying to drum up business.

Sheppard snickered as he watched Chris O'Farrell climb into Pablo's room, which
was on the 5th floor of the lodge. After Pablo had buried him in that sandstorm,
it had been a few frantic hours until he and Chris both realized that Chris had
been carrying a Type 3 Phaser Rifle.

Using the Phaser Rifle's NDF effect, they'd quickly tunneled their way out of the buried
temple, and using Chris' Beckon call, they'd summoned the _Fearmeister_, which
had quickly taken them to the Lodge on Endor, with a few pitstops along the
way (all those TGODs with Enigma, etc).

Sheppard scowled. Right before he'd gotten buried in that temple, he had been
about to revenge his humilation from ASVS Town when Pablo had shot him
in the spine.

The Sixth Panzerarmee had been virtually wiped out when Strowbridge's
Red Banner 7th Guards Tank Army rolled into ASVS Town in endless wave
after endless wave of fanatics from Spacebattles.com under the command
of Marshal E1701. Only about 4 divisions (40,000 men) had made it
back to the transports out of nearly 200,000 men.

After that defeat, E1701 had declared it was a great victory for
the forces of Spacebattles.com, right before Strowbridge's
agents' had put an ice pick into his head, and purged the
SB denizens from his forces.

Now, ASVS Town was called Strowlingrad, as the other denizens
of ASVS Town had looked around at the utter devastation and said
"Fuck it, let's go have some fun instead of rebuilding this shithole."

Most of ASVS had arrived on Endor to set the Lodge up as a temporary
capital while the replacement was being built on Earth (and to have
some hunting thrown in as well).

Snapping back to the present, Sheppard watched Chris easily lever the
window to Pablo's room open, and enter.

A few minutes later, Chris exited the same way he'd come, and forced
the window back into place.

"Did you do it?" Sheppard asked.

"Yeah, I poured that crap you gave me onto him."

"Good. Soon I shall have my revenge. MWAHAHHAAHAHAHAHHHAHAH!"

O'Farrell watched nervously as Sheppard cackled evilly.

[The Next Day]

Pablo centered the Ewok in the sights of his 20mm Solothurn cannon
and pulled the trigger. Mounted on skids, the 1930s vintage anti-tank
rifle roared, and a few seconds later, nearly a mile away, the
Ewok's torso flew apart, limbs flying everywhere.

The hapless Ewok's friends chittered nervously as they looked at
the red smear that had been their friend a moment ago. Then they
decided to run like hell.

It wasn't fast enough as Pablo motioned for the hoverskiff driver
to take his rented skiff up. Leaving the Solothurn on it's port-side
mount, Pablo walked to the bow of the skiff and cocked the MG-42
that was on a pintle mount there.

As the skiff overtook the fleeing Ewoks, Pablo let loose, chopping
them into kibble.

"Looks like we're going to be eating Ewok Steaks tonight!" chuckled
Pablo.

All of a sudden, a blinding headache appeared from inside his skull,
and he reeled back, feeling pain with each heartbeat. Opening the
container of Advils he carried around for his headaches, he
swallowed two of the tan pills and waited for them to work.

They didn't work.

Groaning, he told the driver to head back to the lodge. Opening
the door to his room, he collapsed onto his bed, jackhammers
pounding from inside his skull.

He closed his eyes.

[Much later]

Slowly, painfully, Pablo peeled his eyelids open a millimeter at
a time, revealing a plain white room.

Standing up in shock, he cracked his head on the ceiling, causing
him to howl in pain.

Shocked at the sound of his howl, he looked at his body. His hands
were now green and scaly. Suddenly, he smelled? Sheppard coming
into the room.

Sheppard looked into the cage and chuckled. Picking up a mirror,
he placed it in front of the cage, and with a horrified roar,
Pablo saw what Sheppard had done to him.

He was now a Velocioraptor. Albeit one without claws or sharp teeth.

Suddenly, with rising horror, he realized that Sheppard had changed
his body's plumbing on him as well.

Sheppard cackled as he saw Pablo go bonkers. Motioning to his
assistants, they grabbed animal control poles and put the metal loops
around Pablo's neck, and with expertly applied shocks from tazers,
forced her out of the cage and into a barnyard.

Inside the barnyard was a old donkey calmly eating it's oats.

Pablo tried to break free, but the men were too strong for her.

"In case you're wondering, I had my boys gene-engineer a raptor body
just for you, and we transplanted your brain into it. Oh, don't worry
about your clones. We've taken care of them. You really didn't think
I wouldn't notice that your clones all had the distinctive mark
of the BOYD on them?"

Pablo's reptilian eyes widened in shock. Sheppard knew.

"Mr. Boyd was most displeased upon finding out that you had
appropriated one of his cloning facilities, and right now,
your clones are being hunted down by Boyd Grunts and killed
mercilessly."

"But enough chitchat," with that, Sheppard motioned for the men
to chain Pablo to a special table, and they brought the
old donkey forward.

"Now Pablo, you truly are a crack-smoking donkey fucker,"
chortled Sheppard as the donkey rammed home and a mask
full of cocaine fumes was fitted onto Pablo's muzzle.

[10 hours later]

Sheppard looked up from his copy of "Guns and Ammo," and saw
that the donkey was finally done with Pablo. Her tongue hung
limply from her mouth. All fight was gone from her.

"And no, Pablo, I'm not letting you go." Motioning again, for
his assistants, Sheppard watched as they carried Pablo on a pole
to the Raptor pen, where all of the Raptors used by the Rangers
were kept. They were all males. Very horny ones at that.

"It's been nice knowing you, Pablo," Sheppard said in a sad voice
as the men threw Pablo into the pen, whereapon she was set upon
by dozens of very, very horny Raptors. The orgy would continue
until 3AM the next morning.

[Lodge Control Room]

"Hiya Rob," Sheppard said as he walked into the control room.
Rob's back was turned, so he didn't notice Sheppard producing
a small hold-out blaster and shooting him unconscious.

With Rob out of the way, Sheppard called up the entire complex's
security systems on his computer, and deactivicated every
system. The predators would be able to get in now. ASVS was in
for the fight of it's life.

Laughing all the way to the pad where Chris and the _Fearmeister_
were, Sheppard boarded the TIE Defender and the two of them
disappeared into the night sky and into the vastness of space.

[2 hours later]

"Oh, my aching head." groaned Rob as he woke up.

Sheppard was nowhere to be seen, and alerts were flashing all
over the computer monitors. Suddenly, without warning the
door to the room flew off it's hinges and a pair of Xenomorphs
swarmed into the room.

"Aw, Fuck." muttered Rob as he donned his pancho and cloak, and
pulled out his trusty Colts. Using his Machismo (TM) powers, he
shot the Xenomorphs in the head, easily avoiding their clumsy
attempts to hack him up with their claws.

As acid fountained out of their ruined heads, Rob flicked a stodgie
into the air, and it came into contact with the acid-blood and
ignited. He grabbed it out of the air and put it into his mouth just
as the two corpses thudded to the floor.

Stepping over the corpses, he saw muzzle flashes everywhere as brave
ASVSers valiantly attempted to hold off the onrushing hordes
of Xenomorphs, Zerg, Kzinti, and Trolls.

Suddenly, without warning, a Raptor leapt into the corridor,
and Rob was about to shoot it, when it suddenly tapped out "Pablo"
in morse code.

"Fuck, Pablo, is that you?"

The Raptor bobbed it's head up and down.

"Damn."

<Recover the body> Pablo tapped out.

Rob paused for several seconds.  "What body?"

<My body, dumbass> the Raptor 'said.'

Rob stared.  "How?"

Pablo labourously explained that there was a tracking device in the body,
and that the tracker was in his room, and that if Rob didn't get the body
NOW that he would be disemboweled like a hunted turkey.

It was all very confusing.

It took Rob an annoyingly long time to recover the body, but he dragged it
to the raptor after some time.  "Now what?"

<Take the tracker, point it at me, and press the blue button.>

"Which blue button?  This one?"

<No, that's purple.  There's only one blue button.>

"Oh."  He hit the button.  Suddenly, a dust cloud seemed to erupt from the
dead body, but it was a swarming cloud.  It clung to the raptor, which began
to shriek in pain and convulse.  Rob puked as the raptor's flesh began to
peel and reform into... another shape.

Pablo slowly rose from the ground, brushing off his combat fatigues.  The
clothes that now hid his fully human form.  "Luckily, I have a supply of
nanites, for healing purposes.  A simple command, and they repair my body to
genetically dictated standards.  The tracker," he held out his hand
expectantly, and Rob gave him the device, "Designated the raptor body as
mine, and the nanites quickly 'repaired' the damage."

Rob gaped.  "That was really cool."

"Thank you very much for the help.  I will immediately transfer funds to
your account.  On the order of 12 million Impcreds," Pablo said.

"Whatever," Rob said as he jogged away, Poncho flapping in the wind.

Pablo sighed, and looked around.  He spotted his former body, and recalled
the problem.  Boyd had discovered his theft, and destroyed the clones.  How
he had destroyed the clones located in the impregnable Hephaestus system,
Pablo could not fathom. (Shep: the defenses in my empire's base system could
repel almost anything.  The only thing that could defeat them, that comes to
mind, is an attack by the Culture)

It rankled, but he would have to begin using the mass cloners.  The same
machines that churned out the organic materials used in all aspects of SRDC
services, from fast food to fully trained soldiers, could easily be adapted
for his own use.  The possibility that Boyd could have even damaged those
was basically nil, as they were located in the most heavily defended area of
the Hephaestus system.  He would call home immediately.  And after that...

--

[1 Hour Later]

Sheppard was happy with his triumph, and was even now sharing a
congratulatory beer with O'Farrel.  He took a long swig, and grinned.

"We got that bastard pretty good, eh?" said Sheppard.

O'Farrel laughed.  "Yeah, he won't be getting out of that anytime soon.  He
paid in full for trying to kill me."

Sheppard took another drink, and thought he heard something.  "Say,
O'Farrel, did you--"

"Hear somehing?"

"Yeah, like a hissing kind of sound, and then a clicking."

"I hope it isn't--" suddenly, a scorpion-like animal, three feet on a side,
fell from a cieling vent and latched onto O'Farrel face.  He screamed with
surprise and fear, and then he was cut off.  The facehugger's tail
constricted around his throat, and he collapsed to the floor without even a
groan.

Sheppard cursed and drew his Glock 21 (IIRC).  He held the pistol at the
ready.  Another alien dropped into the room, and he began firing wildly.  He
hit it several times, and it stopped moving.  He watched the blood eat
through the floor, and glanced at O'Farrel.  It was far too late, the eggs
were already in him.  But at least Sheppard was alive.  That was something.

Pablo frowned as he watched the monitor.  Sheppard was still alive, but at
least he had gotten O'Farrel.  The alien pods he had planted in their room's
ventilation had worked very well.  He guessed he would have to take care of
Sheppard himse--wait... He spotted something, and grinned.  The facehuggers
had attracted someone else.

--

Sheppard slapped a new magazine in his pistol.  He crouched in the corner of
his room, breathing hard, with his eyes darting around rapidly.  He couldn't
go outside, because something had locked the doors.  Even if he could, the
sounds of wild gunfire and slaughter would have stayed him.

He tried to collect his thoughts as he looked around the room.  Something to
use to escape.  He thought he spotted a blurry shadow next to the wall.  He
rubbed his eyes and stared.  Two green lights flared, and the shadow moved,
quite rapidly.  Sheppard crazily whipped his firearm up and fired, hitting
nothing but the walls.  The shadow leapt across the room, and took Sheppard
by the throat.  The cloaking faded, and a Predator appeared.

Sheppard nearly wet himself.  "You--"

The mask detached in a cloud of steam propelled by compressed air.  The
hideous alien began to speak.  "Yoo arr Seppard, grate warrior?"

Sheppard couldn't breath, so he just nodded.

The Predator laughed, a poor approximation of the human sound.  "Nott
ennymoor..."

Blades sprang from the predator's wrist.  Sheppard's mouth opened in a
silent scream as the blades slammed home.

--

Pablo smiled.  "A very nice trophy, that head.  I had it once..." he winced
at the memory.  As far as he knew, that hunter wasn't the former ASVS
regular, just a regular glory seeker.  But he was obviously good enough.

"One last thing," said the Predator.

"What?"

"This." and with that, the holoshroud dropped revealing a pissed
off Sheppard, who promptly blew Pablo's head off with his
H&K USSOCOM .45 Pistol.

Running out the door, Sheppard jumped into the Fearmeister, and he
and Chris once again took off for the safety of deep space
using the Fearmeister's cloaking device.

As he sat back in the co-pilots seat next to Chris, he reflected
on the stupidity of the Predator whose skull now decorated the
Fearmeister's rearview mirror like a pair of fuzzy dice, being hung
from string that ran through the eyesockets to the big round hole
in the back of the skull.

The fool had removed his mask, and went for the melodramatic
ending, allowing Sheppard to pull out a concealed compact
Glock 32 at the last minute and blow it's head off.

Using one of the holoshroud generators that the LT had left
behind on the Fearmeister when he'd given it to Chris, he'd
easily impersonated the now-dead Predator.

Sheppard smiled, remembering what he'd given Pablo - his
own skull. Sheppard had kept it as a memento after Pablo's brain
transferrence surgery, and now it had been useful.

Using Rusty, the Insane MedDroid, he'd removed the Alien embryo
from Chris and left it in a FedEx box that should be arriving at
the Lodge...about now....

[The Lodge]

Paul Jaques HJR picked up the strange box and opened it.

Suddenly, the Embryo leapt into his chest, shredding it
viciously. Paul dropped like a stone, his blood staining the
carpet in his room.

The Predator didn't know I existed, but don't let that stop you.

--

[Sheppard's Home]

Sheppard was gone, but simple cowardice would not stop Pablo from getting
his revenge.  The .45 had simply knocked Pablo unconscious, thanks to the
ultra-dense bone matter he had ordered the nanites to construct.  With his
clones momentarily down, he couldn't afford to take chances.

Sheppard had killed his own family, months ago.  It was not a thing that
Pablo would let go easily, and he was prepared to take revenge.  He walked
into the kitchen, where the family sat bound and gagged.  He cracked his
knuckles, and looked at his fingers.  A tickle on his hands came and went.
The nanites, amazing devices they were, had changed his fingerprints.

He turned to his enemy's mother and father.  "It looks like you raised your
boy to be a mass murderer.  He pulled out a glock, the same that Sheppard
had left in his rooms in the lodge.  He chambered a round, and began firing.
He reloaded several times, to give the proper measure of cold-bloodedness.

Excellent.  He left a note, saying "Bye bye mama and papa."  He walked out
of the room, got in his car, and drove away.  It was time to go back to the
lodge.

It would be quite difficult for Sheppard to show his face on Earth ever
again.

Ah vacation time, and nothing better then a good hunt. Of course Ta'or
wanted a Xenomorph specimen for his own uses, which was why he was
permitted to go in the first place. Col. Transcend looked out the shuttle's
cockpit and watched ID Space go by for a few minutes. Then he went to check
his supplies. For hunting itself he wouldn't need anything more then his
skrill as a weapons and his Virtual Glass Shield implant for defences.
Opening the medical case he checked the crystalized Talon core energy and
applicator, never could be too careful. There was also a limited supply of
the new Doors International Medical Nanobots, still experimental but able
to deal with many injuries. Closing that case he moved on to his security
gear, many unsavorable types would be hanging around the hunting lodge.
Seeing all was intact there he moved on to his tracking gear. Tracking
nanobots and launcher were there, which would feed telemetry directly into
his Global. Next he checked his portable ID portal, which would send him to
the portal aboard the small cloaked shuttle. Finally sure of his gear Col.
Transcend dropped the shuttle out of ID Space and activated the cloaking
device. He then began scanning the surface of the world below him, finding
the lodge easily. Activating the ID comm gear he opened a channel to the
surface, where he got a rather nasty surprise.

"What do you mean you can't find my reservation, I made it weeks ago!"

Looking as the creatures swarmed all over his hunitng lodge, The Bear took stock
of the situation, actually I had been preparing for just this condtingency, but
didn't think it was time to cash in the 'Insurance Policy' just yet.  Walking
over to the summoning room, I looked at the control printed in an anchient
langauge, and tapped in the series, for The flagship (Still under construction,
as the Lodge was primarily a fundraising venture, to finance the much needed
fleet upgrades for future TGODs)  Watching as the little Kushan workers fitted
modular parts to the hull I had a moment's regret before firing up the ship's
computer.  "What percent of the operation is complete."  I asked the ship's AI
*Our Kushan allies have harvested most of the molecular debris from the old
battle, and are still annalizing it.  Unfortuanatly we were unable to recover
enough debris from the second deathstar to build our own Superlaser, but the
Kushans are willing to sell us a used Siege cannon.* came the reply
"So with the Cloaking nets, what is the chance that Sheppard has detected our
construction operation."
*Considering his former Position as our Primary arms supplier.  Unknown.*
"DAMN!*
"Just tell me what's operationional."
*Certainly, the Galley, The Wetbar, Stargate, Music and the Anime missile system
are all fully operational.*
"Good, get me some Salmon, with a light pasta, a six pack, and Lock and fire all
missiles on the FEARMEISTER!*
Eatting a light repast I listened to the sounds of Gotterdamrung playing over
the ship's comm system as the unreasonable mass of FTL missiles chased after the
ship.  Sipping my last drink I asked for another just as the missiles discharged
their multipal warheads in terminal kill vectors.
*I am sorry, the wetbar is depleted!*came the computer's voice.
"What! I couldn't have drank all of it, there was supposed to be enough liquid
refreshment for a full crew for Five YEARS!"
*We purchased an ANIME missile launch system, in the event of their not being
enough warheads it will replace them with cans of soda or beer.*

"NOOOOOOOOOOO!"
The Fearmeister was in the process of being buffetted by cans of harmless drink,
The antimissle system was glowing red turning the cans into big puffs of foam
that instantly crystalized in the cold of space.

Being an innovative person Chris activated the Tractor beam and filled the hold
of the ship with the ill gotten soda's and beers.

Cracking open very cold,  ones' Mark and Chris grumbled "Now why couldn't
Colin be more considerate and give us something to eat with all of this beer!"

Groaning The Bear left the bridge, and told Mikie II to do something to get them back.
Strangely the superpowerful, insane, and terminally dumb Artifial Intelligence
(Think Pinky meets Shodan) hacked the imperial Holofeed creating the battle of
the Boy/Girl bands marathon, which was ended half an hour into it's start by the
lucky intervention of an unknown Eclipse class warship that destroyed the
concert location along with:  The Spice Girls, The Backstreet Boys, New Kids on
The Block, Menudo (All former members), Hanson, and All of the other groups that
so deserved death.)

Elsewhere.  The Borginfested Irradiated Ewok, crept along, now serving the
troll, lords he gathered the ingredients he needed for the summoning, the only
thing he needed now was Lump Bile, and Sheppard urine.  Soon the dark god of
trolls would awaken and swarm from world to world.  The colony of trolls had
been attacked by Kzinti and had inturn raided Ringworld for Tree of Life,
exactly what Guardian and Weyon intended to do with this was unknown.

All of a sudden an Arab Federation redshirt with 20 sticks of dynamite
strapped to his body appears out of nowhere. "I don't want to live in fear
anymore! If I'm going to die, I'm taking the rest of you with me!"

Being a Borg hybrid had many advantages. All of his natural senses were
enhanced far beyond any normal humans, with Jedi level equivilance. A HUD
was imprinted on his vision directectly. The various sensors in his body and
the external ones via datalink or hacked datalink formed a sort of sixth
sense much akin to the Force through which Chris was able to with complete
clarity know what was going on. It also gave him strength enough to take on
Klingons or wookies hand to hand and win due to strength and reflexes.

It was therefore with some surprise that apparently out of nowhere a face
hugger slammed into him and implanted its embryos into his body. A few
seconds later he "saw" Sheppard deal with the situation and accepted his
help back to the Fearmister. Already the nanoprobes and their nanite swarms
in attendence had isolated the infestation and were preparing to liquidate
it when he arrived back at the fearmister. ordering the implants to begin
regneration, he activated rusty who with little trouble extracted the eggs
from him and placed them into the specialy designed parcle with the stasis
field.

The Fearmister for this planet and mission had been re-equiped. The new
external modular weapons system let the layout change in a short time.
Before leaving the O'Farrells Revenge, he had had the techs mount 2 squad
E-Web turrets in place of the ion cannons and pulse phasers. A mixed warhead
pod with a liberal amount of thermal detonators, Mark 3 starfleet attack
drones (with the isolinier tag system replaced by replicated Varon-T
disruptor components), a wide area deforestation bomb and 4 dozen HE
rockets. The two Q-Torps had been replaced by a pair of cargo pods each with
a high powered swoop inside. The cargo bay where once the LT had stored his
infamous WMD now held every possible bit of equipment for a self
constructing jungle fort 5000, several dozen 21st cent assault rifles of
vartying kinds and 2 fishing rods....

It was a good time to go hunting.

Unfortunately, Pablo forgot to properly forge the "Bye Mama bye Papa",
note, giving Sheppard valuable legal leverage...unfortunately for Sheppard,
but fortunately for Pablo, Sheppard was already wanted by the
Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms for illegally manufacturing
Sturmgewehr 44s in his backyard shop....

CNN NEWSFLASH:

<Camera shows a Blonde Bimbo speaking>

"Over a hundred Federal Agents are dead after they were killed in a massive
explosion, after attempting to apprehend one Mark Sheppard, who is considered
heavily armed and extremely dangerous."

"Mr. Sheppard is wanted for questioning concerning his family's recent murder,
as well as for manufacture of several hunded illegal machine guns and
assault rifles. One of his friends, a Mr. Sanchez, had this to say:"

<Camera turns to Pablo>

"He was always the quiet one, staying in his house most of

Pablo chuckled. "Well, since my paper kept disappearing, I decided to put

This morning, I saw this on the tape. I must warn you: it is extremely disturbing."

<Cut to grainy footage from camcorder showing Sheppard walking into his house,
and showing muzzle flashes from the windows of the house, and then Sheppard
walking out again with blood splatter all over his clothes>

<Bimbo>

"There you have it. Incontrovertible proof of Sheppard's guilt."

Sheppard sat at the bar, slamming back shotglass after shotglass full of
100-grain wood alcohol Vodka, when he saw his name and face on the
Fearmeister's CNN feed.

"Oh shit."

The Mushroom Pizza was made from magical ingredients, and placed inside it's own
force field and allowed to cool, a Big sign was placed next to the access box.
"ASVS denizens do not eat the pizza if you know what's good for you."
