Azure frowned as she stared at the scene unfolding in front of her. To her own surprise she wasn't scared, after all, you can only go through so many alien attacks cowering in fear before the whole thing becomes blase, but she was at least slightly concerned that there was no obvious way to get out of this situation, or any real indication as to why this was happening. She silently vowed to study up on more alien races if she got out of this. Turning away from the Baltans she casually pretended to smooth back her hair, activating her comm-device again.
"So, Blair," She whispered into the device.
"Yes?" Blair answered, seeming annoyed.
"Y'know what I said about everything being fine?" She said.
Blair gave a grunt of acknowledgment.
"Yeah, everything's not fine," Azure said.
"Is the alien girl doing something?" Blair asked.
"No," Azure said, "Different aliens, and they seem to be trying to kill Zero, but we could definitely use an assist from Skyway."
"Right," Blair said, "I'll get to my cruiser and put in a call for an SRT unit to come and help out in one of the ships. I should be there in two minutes."
"I sincerely hope that's fast enough," Azure said.
"You and me both," Blair answered.

Colette Mogg smiled as she walked down the street towards the electronics shop. She was just about done with the new micro-holographic scanner she'd been working on, and all she needed now were a few more reflector panels to help with the picture quality of the holograms. Thankfully Tremorton was the only place on the planet where she could buy those in just about any shop. She was in the middle of musing over how lucky this was when she saw a familiar Skyway Patrol vehicle speed past. The fact that it didn't stop to acknowledge her told her that something more than the average crime was in progress. She put a finger to her ear, activating her comm-link.
"Hey," She said to everyone on the channel, "Is there something going down I need to know about."
"Not much," Said Azure, "Mezmers is just being attacked by aliens that want to kill Zero."
Colette nodded.
"Ah," She said, "Right. I'll be there in a few then."
She sighed, deciding that the scanner would have to wait.
"Oh well," She said, "Gives me a chance to test out the Nano-suit."
She grinned, pressing a button on her watch, and watching as what appeared to be black fabric spread up her wrist. In reality it was thousands upon thousands of nanobots, and to Colette's surprise they tickled. She tried to contain her laughter as they continued to spread, until finally they had covered most of her head, the last of them forming what appeared to be a transparent green visor.
"Right," She said, seeing all systems reading out positively, "So the deployment system works, now let's see how she handles."
With that she activated the anti-grav gyro and took off into the summer sky.
"So, Blair," She whispered into the device.
"Yes?" Blair answered, seeming annoyed.
"Y'know what I said about everything being fine?" She said.
Blair gave a grunt of acknowledgment.
"Yeah, everything's not fine," Azure said.
