eNo, I've been waiting for another shot at an Azugal safari, so count me in (if it happens).

Spider
Again: what about Izugal?

I'm not much of a hunter, but I'll have a nice Azugal steak if you don't mind.

I've never been on an Azugal safari before, I think I might join you.

Sorry, Shadow, your view's gonna be a bit obscured...unless you can think of another place to park my pod.

Spider
No, I'm not going to fly the whole way...not when there's a mini-I Club in the tank!

Wow, now I can enjoy all the comforts of the I-club, and have fres Azugal, and Ezugal, and Ozugal... Hmmmm.

Ps - I'm packed and ready to go *pointing to a knife and fork in his back pocket*

Azugal Queen v.2: I sense a disturbence in the force...
Azugal1: what is it my queen?
Azugal Queen v.2: it's... it's... AHHHGGGG!! (passing out)
Azugal2: are you alright my queen?
Azugal Queen v.2: it is a grave day today... the mercyless and everhungry Carnivean has returned to our sacred land.
Azugal3: it is a grave day indeed.

meanwhile on the party wagon...

Carnivean: hmmmm... Azugal *drooling* I can feel them

*is it possible that after consuming so many of them, Carnivean has developed a sensing ability for Azugals? stay tuned for the next exciting epizode! Same Azugal time, Same Azugal channel.

eNo: You with your high-tech weapons. Takes the fun out of hunting. I'm going back to the scope and high powered rifle with armour-piercing rounds. Those Azugal know how to protect them pretty well.

eNo dissapears into the jungle.

Azugal Queen: No! eNo is here too! Call up the Ezugal Queen, we need more power!

Azugal 463: Yes your majesty!

Azugal Queen: Send out conscription orders. Start making the nets and remember to teach our troops to compensate for wind!

Azugal 5376: At once!

Meanwhile eNo munches on the leg of a downed Azugal, washing it down with Pholus Mutagen.

Wolf Spider: Computer, switch to piloted mode, neural interface active, total embed. People, I'm going to be leaving the tank for a while....

Later....

Wolf Spider/Pod: Azugals! Tracking...lock! Firing stun grenade...missed. Preparing to launch net...compensating for wind...launching net...capture sucsessful! Performing flamer sweep...full range available, from "Burnt to a crisp" to "Alive and kicking", though I'd only recommend the latter for Carny or eNo. Warning...inbound net...going to miss by approx. 250 feet...they still can't compensate for wind! Returning to base....

Carny, sitting in the party wagon, and looking fairly bored...

Carny: Damm it, I can't take this anymore, all your fancy machinery makes me S-I-C-K !

Carny, pulls out the fork from his pocket, raises it in a triumphant gesture towards the sky, and runs off into the dark.

not soon after, security cameras pick up some weird activity...

It looks like Carny, stradling on the back of an Azugal, and hitting the Azugal with his fork in a futile manner, since the fork isn't able to penetrate the Azugal armour plating

Carny

The Azugal takes flight with Carny still riding on it's back, still poking the armour with his fork. He finds a gap in the armour and pushes the fork through. Unfortunately Carny pushes the fork into the area where the hide is the thickest and the Azugal continues to fly.

Now thouroughly annoyed with the human on its back, the Azugal dives and inverts itslef so Carny is brushing the jungle trees. Suddenly there is a pop and the two tumble into a clearing.

eNo: Hey! Carny! Havn't seen you in a while. How are you?

Carny: Hungry! Stupid fork can't kill an Azugal! You have anything a little more effective?

eNo tosses Carny a dagger, its blade specially designed for 'zugal hunting.

Spider posted 07-14-99 08:31 PM ET     Click Here to See the Profile for Spider    
Spider decides to give Carny a force blade. It's like knife, only it has a blade made of energy...sorta like a scaled-down lightsaber. Plus, if you set it to "Low power" and "Beam", it can be used to cook your Azugal once it's dead (the Azugal, not the force blade.).
