Useless Disguises

After warping though countless lightyears of space, the ship arrived outside the space station. Jamie had calmed down and ordered Augie to pull and and park somewhere, and he managed to do so without any interference from hostile. Captain Jamie ordered everyone else into the bay and they all went down the exit ramp into the station's cargo bay. There she spied several guys in black armor heading their way, assuming they were going to inspect the ship. The girls split up and hid while Jamie stood there waiting for them to find her.

"Halt! State your business," one said.

Jamie gripped the ball in her hand and threw it to their feet as it beeped and exploded into a blast of engery. Steam rose from the bodies of the fried guards as they lay on the floor, dead. The girls gathered and awaited orders, "Okay, now who's going to be the captives?," she asked. No girl was ready to volunteer, except for Xia who jumped and waved her hand. "Okay, tans one. We need one more, how about...Philly."

Philly was a little hesitant, but had no problem being randomly chosen and so she and Xia stood and watched for more guards while the others out on the armor. They absorbed their new outfits into their new devices and quickly removed the armor from the corpses. Surprisingly they hadn't retained the smell the corpses produced nor did they have any bits or pieces of the guards still in them. After decking them selves head to toe, one couldn't tell the differences between the three girls which meant that the other guards wouldn't know they were intruders.

Out they came from behind the crates and marched up to the security checkpoint at the end of the docking bay. "Hold it, what is all this?," asked one guard.

Jamie spoke up, her voice deepend and muffled by her helmet, "These are some prisoners we captured. Order to get some test subjects."

"Hmmm, I don't remember there being any news of new captives...but go on ahead." Jamie nodded and the six attempted to move through the checkpoint, only to be stopped once again. "Hey! You know the procedure," said the guard, "We have to check for contaminants."

"What?"

"A new one! Alright, by order of the Sergeant, all personelle and prisoners are to be checked for contaminants before reentry. Now strip, you two first," he ordered pointing to Xia and Philly. Xia was swift in removing her clothes and giving them to the other guard, but Philly was hesitant and slow. When the two were naked, they walked through a scanner which dinged and the two were given their clothes back.

Jamie was ticked off that she'd have to be naked again, but at least she wouldn't be alone. The four stripped as well, worying they might blow their cover. "You can keep your helmets, they auto clean themselves," he said, giving them some relief and bit of dignity. One after the other, the naked girls passed through the machine and received their disguises back on the other side. All except Jamie who revived a buzz instead a ding, prompting the guard to move to her. "It seems you are carrying a contaminant, we'll need I escort you to a decontamination chamber. You four can go ahead and take the captives to the testing chambers."

Jamie was embarassed that she'd been the only one **** to remain naked as they the others moved on without her. She tried to cover herself a bit, but not completely as she assumed this was normal prodcedure and that guards got used to this. The girls continued down the hall as the two guards flanked Jamie and lead her down another path. None had known what fate had in store for them, what else they'd have to deal with as the mission moved forward now separated and lacking leadership.
