Warp let out soft chuckle as Buzz tried to figure out who Cora's parents were. It had been a bit of a surprise to him once he'd figured it out, but nothing was impossible in his world anymore.
It'll be so obvious once he sees it. She's his and Mira's daughter. Now he just wanted to see Buzz's reaction.

Cora rubbed her foot into the steel floor, wondering how she was going to playing along with this. Her eyes never left Buzz's.
"I can explain that," She said. "My parents have been on an investigation for the last fourteen years in another unit. So far the mission's not over and it's not going to be unless I find those cubes, sir. Now, can we get on with the topic, or are you going to bother me with a game of twenty questions?"

((Note to all: introducing a character that I’ve had in the works for a few months but never introduced – Ricki Sunflare. You see, after graduating from the Academy, Erin couldn’t – in reality – join Team Lightyear, so I created Ricki to be her classmate and partner. In the real FG story, they’ll start out as partners right after graduation. But for the purposes of this RP, something had to explain why Ricki was absent and Erin was working with Team Lightyear. So I figured that Ricki had an accident that broke her legs, and needed several months’ absence to heal. Now…))
Commander Nebula coughed. Eyes narrowing, Buzz folded his arms. “Gladly, but let’s get one thing straight, kid. If we’re going to help you get these cubes back, you’ve got to play by our rules. That includes no smart-mouthing – got it?”
He turned to the Commander and asked, “Sir, any idea where they could be?”
“Negative. We do have their energy signals, though.” The Commander handed over a sheet of paper.
Buzz scanned the paper even as his mind planned. “We’ll head to Tradeworld and see what we can dig up there. Maybe Crumford Lorak will have something. Even if he doesn’t, it’s as good a place to start as any. C’mon, team – let’s saddle up.”
Just as Buzz turned to go, Commander Nebula said, “Wait, wait. Ranger Frame?”
Erin turned. “Yes, sir?”
“Ricki Sunflare’s come back.”
Erin’s eyes widened. “Her legs are healed?? She didn’t tell me that!”
The Commander smiled. “I think she wanted to surprise you. She’s in your lounge right now.”
“Sir, does this mean…”
“Yeah. It means that you and she are partners now.”
Erin whooped, then calmed herself. “Sorry, sir.”
The Commander nodded. “Go on. You and she are assigned to this mission, too.”
Erin snapped off a salute. “Yes, sir!” Then she hugged Warp briefly and ran off, calling over her shoulder, “See you guys on Tradeworld!”
“Bye!” Booster and XR chorused.
“Be careful!” Buzz added. He glanced at the others and shrugged. “Well. Let’s go.”
((@cherry: I was thinking that maybe the holocubes ended up on Planet Z and Zurg is now in possession of them. What do you think?))

"I will if you will,"
She politely stepped around the team and out the door, waiting in the halls till after their little meeting was over.
She smiled to herself as she bounced off the wall with her hands. She could get used to having more power than her father for once.
((Sure Sky, but how about something goes wrogn on Planet Z too and Zurg someone loses the cubes as well? ))

((If it’s okay with EEZ.))
Buzz growled slightly and shook his head.
As Team Lightyear headed for the Launch Bay, Buzz leaned over to whisper to Mira, “Mira. Is it just me, or does Cora look a LOT like you?”

Warp had to cough a few times in order to avoid laughing. Yep, she's a Lightyear/Nova combo alright.
"Good-bye to you too." Warp muttered as Erin dashed off to find her old friend. He wondered if he should speak to Cora, as the team headed for the ship.
It can't hurt. He stepped into stride with the Junior Ranger. Then came the hard part. "So, you're a time-traveler?" There wasn't much else he could say without attracting attention from the rest of the team.

Mira almost tripped a bit when he said that. She didn't get a real good look at the girl before she left into the halls.
"I don't know. I didn't get a good look at her. Maybe. Why?"
Cora looked up but never faltered in her walking. She took the same, easy strides as Warp settled beside her, ahead of the team.
"Time-traveler? God, you're brave to ask that sort of thing. I guess what they said was right, you are an idiot. Asking something as bold as that without even introducing yourself will give you a flat out 'no'. Can't you even say, "Hi, nice to meet you; are you a time-travler? That would have made this go a lot more easier.
"But I would have still thought of you and an idiot and said no, though."

Okay, maybe it has the potential to hurt. Warp smiled at Cora. She was her mother's daughter. "That's me, Mister Bold. Warp Darkmatter at your service, and thank you for that wonderful complement." He extended a friendly hand across his body as they continued walking. "In any case, how are you doing?"

“For one thing, it’s uncanny,” Buzz told her. “Turn around a little, act like you’re looking at Booster and XR back there, and take a good look. She looks almost exactly like you when I first met you, except for one thing – and that’s the second thing. Her eyes… I mean, you and I both have blue eyes, but Cora’s eyes… That’s me.” He shook his head in bewilderment.

Cora raised an eyebrow, ignoring the hand. "Well, Mr. Darkmatter, can I ask you something? What makes you think I'm a time traveler?"
Mira glanced back at Cora, who was talking to Warp. She looked annoyed in some kind of way, kinda like Mira was whenver she and Warp had somewhat of a conversation--back when he still worked for Zurg.
"Besides the bangs...she does look like me a bit..." She hesitated when Cora looked over at her just then. She swung her head back to look at Buzz, a bit ashamed at being caught staring at the girl.
"She does have your eyes."
((Hey Sky. Mind my manners, but I thought in the series Buzz had black eyes instead of blue. That just caught my attention.))

((@cherry: Just about everybody in the series has black eyes. The only characters who have colored eyes are females – even then, not always – and some of the kids. I generally don’t like to hold Toy Story canon as being on-par with BLoSC canon, but Toy!Buzz has blue eyes, so that’s where this is coming from. ;D) “Uh-huh,” Buzz nodded. “It’s weird.” He shook his head. “I don’t know what to make of it.”

((Ok then! ;D Just wondering))
Mira got this weird sensation that chilled her to the bones when she looked into Cora's eyes. It made her strangely uncomfortable with how much the girl resembled herself.
It was like looking into a mirror of the past.
"Maybe she's a genetic clone?" Mira joked. Though she regreted saying that to Buzz, knowing off the bat he was going to jump to conclusions.

"I don't see why not?" Warp replied, retracting his hand.
Warp looked into Cora's eyes for a moment, studying her expression. He was sure that he hadn't missed anything. Lightyears. They can't just answer a question. "Do you really want me to give you my reasons?"

((No problem!))
Buzz laughed. “Mira, don’t be silly…” The wheels started turning, and his voice lowered. “Wait a sec, you could be right. I mean, what if some dastardly villain took a sample of your DNA and a sample of mine, spliced the two, and came out with that girl? She could be here on some sort of twisted, devious mission!”

"Forget I said anything." Mira sighed, slapping her hand to her forehead. "Buzz, I was kidding. If you're going to go onto so random thought process, do it on your own time. I'm pretty sure that girl is not a clone."
"It's either that, or you can keep on guessing about my background all the way till doomsday."
