Xeno sighed, refusing to look O'Malley in the eye.
"Best guess? The Phazon wasn't quite done with me... Must've finally taken effect on my Xenomorph genes, causing an abrupt mutation into... this..." She hissed down to him, waving a clawed hand.
The Psuedo Queen shook her head, before processing what O'Malley had said entirely. All conscious thought processes crashed into the ground at that...
Before restarting at full speed...
"Wait, if the PED's stopped transmitting then... then... Oh my god, that would mean it got damaged or destroyed in the mutation, which would mean the Phazon's..." Xeno's words soon lost all cosistency as she degenerated into a screaming wreck that was only barely staying aloft with her wings.

O'Malley's eye flared wide open, and he screamed,
"PIN-POINT BARRIER SYSTEMS AT MAXIMUM! CATCH HER, RESTRAIN HER, AND PUT HER ON BOARD! TRANSPORT 12, STERILIZE YOUR CARRYING BAY AND READY A COMPLETE LOCKDOWN!"
Eight of the Valkyries abruptly began to glow a teal-green in color as they launched out at Xeno, then abruptly caught her and manually restrained each of her limbs- the head, arms, wings, tail, and legs. One of the dropships accelerated into the air and shot backwards, cargo bay facing backwards, as the one clutching her head abruptly smashed a fist into her forehead with a resounding 'boom', the crackle of energy apparent as its field shimmered. Xeno went limp as the handful of Veritech Battloids hauled her into the dropship's bay, of which was a shimmering gray at the moment, then backed away and shifted into their Fighter modes and shot off into the sky at speeds exceeding Mach 1.
O'Malley shook his head as he watched the dropship leave, then snapped his head at Myrr and Daedalus.
"You two are at risk of Phazon contamination as well, so get onto one of the ships. Now."
Daedalus scowled, then rose to his feet, hissing,
"Why the hell should we?! I don't have to listen to y-"
Daedalus was cut off as a large bolt of teal energy blew his left arm off, and he issued a scream of pain as he dropped back to his knees, clutching at the bloodied stump. O'Malley lowered his Karasawa as he turned to one of the ships, and muttered,
"Ship 11, prepare a similar lockdown protocol for your bay. You two-" He stated, jabbing a finger at two of the remaining Valkyries,
"Escort these two onto ship 11 and make sure they don't cause any trouble. Everyone else, grab some equipment and spread out! Report any abnormalities and report them directly to the probes. GO!"
The two Battloids issued the same teal-green color as they grabbed Daedalus and Myrr, then hauled them onto the ship and roughly tossed them in as the door closed shut. The entire interior was a shifting gray in color, and seemed to 'buzz' to the touch. Daedalus, still clutching at his wound, bearing now only the slightest look of pain, staggered over to a bench and collapsed against it, issuing restrained pants. He glanced at Myrr, then firmly spat,
"Well... he's a d*ck."
The shuttle shuddered as it lifted off, then accelerated as it took off into the air. Meanwhile, O'Malley watched it leave, then looked back at the water, eye shimmering as it scanned the surface. His vents all issued a burst of heat and a small handful of red, glowing specks. He then paused, and turned his gaze at the particles as they drifted by, and carefully cupped a few, staring at them. His eye issued a different color again as he inspected the particles, then the color receded as he opened his clawed hands, and let his arms slowly fall to his sides.
Well... I think I just found a solution to this Phazon problem... He processed.
"New order, everyone- keep your distance from the area. I'm going to attempt something..." He stated with a slight smirk in his voice.

"He can be... but at the moment he's probably the only one who can keep Xe sane..." Myrr muttered, shaking her head.
A thought came to mind, and she chuckled, "But with the treatment we just got, I can't help but feel like an inmate to a supernatural jail..."
Myrr's appearance turned serious again, glancing at the direction she assumed the other transport was, that blow had to be rather heavy to knock Xeno out instantly, and she was worried that the monstrous hybrid had suffered new kinds of damage from the blow.
"Will we ever get to the bottom of this?" she whispered.

Daedalus snorted, wincing as he glanced at his wound. It was cauterized, but it refused to stop breaking open and bleeding.
"Yeah, well... he's still a d*ck. Blew my damn arm off..." He growled.
He glanced at the shimmering walls, and scowled at them, wondering if he'd been infected with this 'Phazon' everyone was speaking of. Whatever the situation was... he didn't like it. As the cargo ship broke free of the atmosphere, he muttered to himself,
"I'd better get compensated for this..."
Hope that Xeno girl's okay... He mentally added.
