A woman approaches wearing a top hat and fishnets with this (http://i677.photobucket.com/albums/vv134/randomramblings/Rp%20album/Zatanna/zee2.jpg)
She looks him over, and then walks over.

"Are you also here to give Ben a hand?"

From:

There was now also a female teenager joining them as well, dressed in a rough woolspun blouse and buckskin leggings.

"Hey, just waiting on Ben and my Will. Hi Captain, and you must be Zatanna. I'm Kate, but I guess for here, call me Hawkeye."

From:

Zatanna grins at Kate "Nice to meet you. Feel free to call me Zee."

She smiles at the Captain and holds out a hand to shake "I don't believe I got your name."

Zatanna eyes their outfits with curiosity. "Did Bar make your outfits too?"

From:

Will's outfit hasn't really changed that much just green britches versus leggings and he enters stringing his longbow,

"Feels like Sherwood."

From:

"Captain James Kirk," Jim says to the stunning (if slightly oddly dressed) brunette as he shakes her hand. "Though Jim will do, Zee. And yes, the Bar can come in handy. Almost as good as a starship with a wardrobe division.

"Good to see you Will, Hawkeye. It does seem a bit like Sherwood, yes." The air is just a little different in its smell, most likely because there were no dinosaurs in Sherwood.

Ben follows close on Wil's heals, holding a bottle of Atlantian. "Well the fort looks about the same so I guess the Allasauruses haven't gotten in. The time platform's right over here." Ben walks toward the 10' by 10' platform with railings at about waist height and a control console mounted on a post.

"Maybe we can bait 'em ta come onto the platform and turn it on? Or do you have any sleep gas or tranq arrows Hawkeye?"

From:

"Pretty much," Kate agreed on the clothing question before stepping closer to Will.

"Hey, you made it." Discreet kiss to his cheek, before checking her quiver.

She grinned at Ben, "Wouldn't leave home without them. They're pretty strong." She got out one of the tranq arrows.

"Strong enough fer an elephant maybe?" Ben inquires as another roar is heard from the valley below.

From:

"Guess if we're baitin' it should get lots o'raw meat, aye, as if it were a boar or such?"

From:

"Will there be enough time to get that much meat?" Zatanna frown slightly before giving a little jump, and hovers a foot or two off the ground.

She can't believe she's going to suggest this. "Depending on how fast you can get that platform active... I could piss them off and make them chase me." Not the most dangerous thing she has ever done, but might be the stupidest.

[Ooc: Erk. Lj is eating my alerts.]

From:

"Is the time platform fairly straightforward? I can help with that." He also picks up a few rocks, in case he can use them in some way. (He's resourceful that way.)

"It's pretty basic. One thing I gotta give Doc Doom, he makes his gadgets easy to work," Ben replies. "The mother was pretty protective of the younger ones, in fact she's what tossed me into Milliways. Maybe I could be the bait? What period are Allasaurs from anyway, Cretaceous?"

From:

Kate drew closer on the platform, and tried to sight the dinosaurs.

"If I got big momma out there close enough, could take her down with a couple of shots."

From:

"Aye an since its simple should just be a matter o'settin' a basic snare with the time thingy inside it."

"Cretaceous doesn't seem right," Ben muses, "maybe it was Jurassic?"

Down in the valley, as if she had heard them, the mother Allosaur peers her head around the fort and roars a challenge.

From:

"Late Jurassic..." Zatanna is distracted by the roar. She frowns and takes off flying at the Allosaur, deciding to distract it from the fort.

She manages to get behind it and pulls out her wand. "Hey! You over grown newt!"
When she fails to get much of a reaction, she starts casting magic.

"Gninthgil!" There is a loud boom and a streak of lightning, that should act like an over sized cattle prod, aimed straight at the middle of it's back.

From:

The lightning, Jim muses, was unexpected. Clearly she's some sort of energy manipulator.

"Ben, where's the platform?"

From:

Ben walks over to a suspicious clump of bushes and, after removing them, reveals the platform. He turns on the display and after carefully hitting a few buttons says, "Well this isn't my forte, but it looks like when I jumped back I hijacked a remote beam that was taking the dino's further up the timestream. Looks like these guys are from about 145 million years ago, I can't tell when they were headin'."

"Capt'in, you think you can handle these controls an' I go help Zee? Or how 'bout Wil an' Hawkeye, you wanna stay here or help Zee?"

Down in the valley, Zee's lightning does a good job of getting the elder Allosaur's attention. It takes a direct hit and is now quite pissed off, enough that it has forgotten the fort and it's young.

From:

Jim looks over the controls. They're fairly user-friendly (the sort of thing he rarely sees, in fact). "I think I can get the hang of it fast." He even has a vague idea of how to program the controls to send the dinosaur back to the moment that they left from.

From:

Will nods and draws his bow,

"Aye, we'll cover the Cap'n while ye get the beast o'er 'ere."

From:

Zatanna hovers just out of the Allosaur's reach, essentially dive bombing it.

"Come on Chase me, you walking handbag."

From:

The Allosaur shakes her head again and then does as Zatanna askes, charging forward with surprising speed. Behind her, her young peek out from behind the wall of the fort and roar a query.

Meanwhile up on the hill, Ben takes Kirk's answer to be assent and so he runs off down the hill to help with the Dino Wrangling.

From:

Kate keeps the dinosaur in sight with her bow, ready to soften her up when she gets in range. Easier to corral then.

From:

Zatanna tries to lure the Allosaur toward the platform. She uses another bolt of lightning for good measure.

[Ooc: Sorry about the taking so long to reply. RL got in the way.]

From:

Jim quickly makes the final adjustment to the settings, and watches. Both Kate and this Zatanna are clearly seasoned fighters. Even if that lightning really mystifies him. (He thinks if there are any worlds he knows of where sentients have electrical outputs like eels, but draws a blank.)

Meanwhile Ben has made it to about half way down the slope of the hill before the mother Allosaurous spots him and Zatanna's lightening is forgotten. She lets loose an ear piecing roar and sets hers sight on poor Ben who skids to a stop when he sees her reaction.

Ben resists the urge to yell, "Spock transmit now!" and instead yells, "Captain, turn it on!" as he starts running toward the machine.

The juvenile Allosauruses are now about 100 yards behind their mother and closing fast.

From:

Jim activates the platform. He has no idea what it's actually doing (seeing as how there are no actual time machines in his reality). But it's generating a lot of very well contained energy.
