Ugh.

Pepsimilk, while very tasty, is very hard to get out of feathers.

*Serenity shakes her feathers in a very bird-like manner.*

That better be all you're doing, little brother!!

*Emma's happy bliss is disturbed by a worrying announcement from the pilot to 'stay safe'*

Oh God, my ship

*Emma runs to her ship praying that Static has remembered there were some modifications. Any unusual and dodgy (but no doubt highly skilled moves) could destroy her ship and cause the Sereni-Tree enormous damage. She runs to her ship jumping over dead EIs, splashing through puddles of Pepsimilk and avoiding bird-poo from a parrot.

There she waits, hoping against hope that the pilot is really as good as everyone says he is.

While she waits she eats a raspberry pavlova and notices a crate of tiramusu is missing, hmmmmm*

*Soul phases through the wall and drops down to the floor below, landing with cat-like grace. His bow is immediatley out, and he quickly fires two arrows at a pair of EI's, trying to find cover from the Pepsimilk. They let out simultanoeus screeches only a moment before they dissolve into puddles of Pepsimilk.*

Good arrowheads! They liquidate prices, and EI's!

*Soul looks up to where Serenity is perched overhead.*

I don't think up there is going to be the safest place to be when the SereniTree takes off!

*He points to the bar on the far wall.*

That, however, is bolted down. We can hang on there! I'd really rather not see you flung about like a rag doll!

*Serenity swoops down and joins Soul at the bar.*

That's a good idea, because I could use a drink! What a day!

*She sets Molly, who's feathers are so sticky from the pepsimilk she can no longer fly, on the bar next to a large bowl of pretzels and begins mixing drinks*

STATIC

Static wraps his hands around the control yoke as the engines begin that oh-so-lovely hum. Pulling back, he senses a bit of strain. . .a tad bit of resistance.

"What the - ?" His eyes scan the consoles for a second before remembering that a rather large, sphere-shaped ship is docked with his own bird.

"Frag it all." the pilot mutters to himself and quickly makes a few adjustments here and there. Having compensated, SereniTREE lifts from the ground smoothly, as if the added weight were not even there. Static begins a steady climb, slowly spinning the ship 360 degrees so he and his beloved can look out the forward viewports at the trashed clubhouse. He reaches over and takes her hand in his.

"Don't worry, Sweetest, we'll be back."

The SereniTREE climbs higher and higher, preparing to break atmo. Static keys the comms.

All strategy-type folks to the bridge. I got some concerns and a few plans.

*Soul feels the rumble through the deck plating as the SereniTREE lifts off.*

Well, that certainly wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

*Soul turns to Serenity after Static's announcement.*

I've gotta run. Will you be okay here?

*She nods and smiles.*

Good.

*Then, in a sudden move, Soul leans in and gives Serenity a peck on the cheek.*

I'm just glad that you're okay.

*He turns away before she can reply and runs off in the direction of the bridge.*

*walks amid unchecked corridors in darkness, the lights above him flickering and cutting off as he enters another corridor, filled with anticipatory EIs. A 3 foot long red line lights up in the darkness. Slashing, growling, howling. The line disappears. The lights flicker back on revealing a dozen or so EIs chopped to tiny pieces. The camera pulls backwards, turning and weaving, following a reverse path back to Engineering reveals tens if not dozens of similarly hacked up bodies. Camera 2 cuts on, revealing a suddenly darkened hallway and a familiar red line then....*

JAZAF

*Common Room*

A very sticky Jazaf begins a search for a bathroom to clean himself in. Looking around he spots Ebo near her famous Pool Table. Introductions are made and Jazaf poses his question

'Do you know where a bathroom is? I'm kinda sticky.'

'Sure! If you go...' Ebonezer pauses and calmly heads back under the pool table. 'Maybe If I ignore it It'll go away.'

'Huh?' Puzzled, Jazaf turns around in time to see an EI lumber into the room. Jazaf draws his Katana. Within moments the Room is filled with intense music that startles Jazaf and the EI.

'Well then,' Jazaf says with a grin, "Shall we dance?"
Both combatants charge, the EI starts the fight with a wild right hook. Jazaf drops to the floor dodging the blow and swings his Katana skyward. The EI shrieks and stumbles backwards as a cut appears in the middle of it's body.

With adrenaline pumping through his veins Jazaf leaps for the EI, swinging downward hoping to finish off the beast. The EI raises it's arm in defense only to have it cut off. The EI shrieks again, Jazaf gets in close and removes the EI's head from it's shoulders.

Calm returns to the room. 'Looks like you don't know the steps. Heh'
Jazaf's ear twitches. 'Eh? I though the music was just my imagination. I wonder where it's coming from?'

Jazaf sheathes his Katana and follows the music.
