PROLOGUE: "All quiet at the portal?" "Yes, sir." "Any fresh news?" "Sgt Ruffa reported a lead on the missing Krill that should have been sent for checking. On questioning the security guards at the transport facility she was told that some of them had observed a krill in the waiting area. A gate guard collected it and handed it over to a Security Guard who then called a taxi and went off with the krill. Last thing we heard was that the taxi was taking her to where he'd dropped them off. She will call in with the location." "Good. She might need back-up if the Rogue Trooper is in the area. I'll call for a rapid reaction team to be ready for directions." (Later) "Directions received. Send the team." IMAGE: (Team enters the building identified by Ruffa. A lone Trooper is there.) "Identify yourself" "Krill worker" "Dressed as a Trooper?" "Not my idea. I was activated and told to go with Chomper, travel to Robotika for a full check-up. But a Security Guard collected me, brought me here and told me to wear this uniform." "Was this Security Guard also a Krill?" "Yes. Didn't know they were used for Security, but then I've been mothballed for a while." "They're not. This one kidnapped you - why didn't you radio the Ministry for help?" "Radio in need of repair - that's why I was in store." "Have you seen the kidnapper since?" "Came in yesterday - looked as if he'd been in a fight - wearing trooper uniform - torn and burnt in places. Told me he would be back to collect me soon, and left." "OK. We'll take care of you now. Two of my lads will wait here for him to return. You come with me back to the Station." [Looks like there's just the one left ... a Rogue Trooper on the run.]
