>> Painfully the creature moves away from Alex, slowly at first but

[Osiris]
Osiris responds after a moment.  "Negative, Alex." Osiris says, rolling 
himself over.  "But I think we've got some sort of a plague.  Ted fell 
over, and seems to be raving, and now our new companion, Justin, seems 
to have lost consciousness.  We've got problems here.  I think you and 
Louissa better meet up with us and fast!  Over."
[/Osiris]

[Louissa]
"Great." Louissa says.  "More trouble.  Well, I think we'd better get a 
move on."
[/Louissa]

[Osiris]
A few seconds later, Osiris radios Alex and Louissa again.   "Alex, we 
can here horesmen approaching.  Owen did some psychic recon and there 
looks like a lot of of 'em.  We need assistance ASAP!"
[/Osiris]

[Louissa]
"Are you okay with the baby, Alex?" Louissa says, "We've got to go!"
[/Louissa]
