“And,.. just how big is this dice?! I didn’t think Armadillos were big enough to do this!” Chel braced herself up the same tree Fly had abandoned her shoulder for. She looked back at Lexx, wondering just how safe it was to be out here with the ground still shaking beneath her and a rumbling [...]

The rolling pile of dirt reminded Chel a lot of a cartoon, but a bit more ominous since whatever was inside of it was coming directly at them. Lexx didn’t seem very concerned. Zeta bumped up against his legs and Stealth vanished into the grass to one side. “Quiiip!!” The mound had just about reached [...]
“So’m smaller’n last time⦔ The tiny armadillo hissed, crouching down and shifting his eyes back and forth on Zeta and Stealth as they approached. “Don’t mean nutin’ gainst you two!” His tail twitched back and forth in a slow methodic arc, sizing up his challengers. “Remember? I ain’t being taken easily!” He scuttled to one [...]
Luckily for Dig, his low to the ground orientation made him almost impossible to hit right. Noting Stealth coming, he tilted his shell toward her, opting to get a little burned by Zeta’s fire over being knocked down and taken out immediately. His claws sunk into the ground as Stealth hit him. “I got him!” [...]
It didn’t take long before Dig couldn’t take it anymore. He burrowed up so quickly that he broke the surface of the ground and jumped above the grass level to gasp for breathable air. There was no going back down. The ground was too saturated with noxious fumes. He’d have to get further away to [...]
Dig tilted backward and rolled, falling just as Stealth had stood up on the base of the tree. With a loud bonking noise he bounced off her head and hit the ground rolling in a tight armored ball. Stealth dropped to all fours in pain, stars flashing brilliantly in her head. “Hah! You just thought [...]
While Dig’s shape made it hard for Stealth to get a good hold on him, he fit neatly into Zeta’s mouth, wedged in between his teeth much like a dog would grab a ball. Noting the sudden lack of acceleration and brief moment of weightlessness, Dig immediately unrolled, “Quiiiip,.. not rolling anymore?!” Zeta proudly held [...]
“Very good, Zeta,.. Stealth. I’m very proud of you two. Thank you.” Lexx knelt and Chel noted that he was smiling appreciatively at Zeta as he patted him on the head and took hold of Dig. “There’ll be treats on the ship later for both of you.” Dig dangled despondently from Lexx’s hands, accepting the [...]
Lexx scowled, thoughts stampeding through his head, ‘First Damian, now Claudia?! What did I do to deserve this?!’ Claudia strode forward a sway in her walk and a tilt to her head, obviously in full flirtation mode much to Lexx’s disgust. Not that she was bad to look at. Claudia was Lexx’s height and had [...]
