/me, realizing the cannon doesn't want to be his friend, begins to climb out of his hidey hole in its barrel...then catches sight of the quickly burning fuse and the stunned sea-goer staring silently at the odd munitions in the cannon, mouth agape in a silent state of shock

...eep!

/me is flung far, far away as an intensely loud boom issues from the cannon

Since Serenity is flying about, she might be able to push me closer while getting in a good position to snatch TRM while you're distracting the sharks...

Um, okay, Sure!

*PR pulls the rope back in, makes a lasso, swings it above his head a few times, before letting it strike the water.*

Hmmm...

Ooh! I've got it! *PR yanks on the rope, and pulls an upside down Ath out of the water, with PR's lasso wrapped round his ankle. He swings upside down.* Well... you're not a shark! Back you go! *PR dunks Ath back into the water.* Oh, and take this! *He throws a rubber-ring into the water.* And find Mai!

Okay, now...to catch a shark.

*PR throws the lasso again.*

Bingo!

Did she hit her head or go crazy or something?

Going back to the moment of dissappearednishness (what? that's a word.)

I think what i need is a nice little nap to sleep of some of those drinks.

*crawls in bed just as an extremely weird sensation, almost like being wrenched into two different places at once washes over her entire body*

WTF! What is happening?!!! *tries to scream,but nothing comes out.* Everything turns black and vortex-y then *suddenly landing with a lound thump Mai finds herself in a room full of strange people and frightened runs quickly to hide in the nearest cabinet*

At the exact same moment

*WHOOOOOOOOSH lands head first on the deck of a pirate ship*

Ow.

*Stands up slightly disoriented, but not concerned in the least as several strangely dressed people approach*

Oh hi! You all must be the new passengers? Well, welcome aboard! This here's Serenitree, best ride from here to Boros for them that can pay.

ScaryPirate#1: Arrrgh! you think ya just gonna take over the whole ship and steal our loot all by yourself ey little missy?

Scarypirate#2: Harrrrr Harrrrr Harrr, (he laughs menacingly) I dont' think we got too much to worry bout with this one Cap'n Kooh.

Scarypirate#3:Didnya her the lass she said she's here to take our money?

Capn' Kooh: Well, theres only one thing to be done to thief trying to thieve from the King of Pirates.

Me: Oh no I think there's been a misunderstanding. You don't have to pay right away. In fact, Im sure our Captain would be more than happy to barter with you fellows for safe passage to wherever it your wanting to get.

Scarypirate2# Ahh now shes thinkin' on stealin' our treasure too. Not a very sneaking sneakin on there lass. An ya arent bout to get what we worked so hard fer ourselves.

Capn' Kooh: Throw her overboard boys! That'll learn her to try an best Capn' Kooh, King Of the High Seas

Citizen clutched at the pistol in his hand as the footfalls grew closer. This was quite possibly the stupidest thing he had ever heard of anyone doing. There had just been a terrorist attack on the space port of capital city, and the people who owned the offending Shuttle were now sitting just feet away from the Alliance soldiers sent to investigate, and the stupidest thing of all was that he had gone with them.

Who the hell were these guys? They didn’t look like your average terrorist, hired guns perhaps, but not folk to go blowing up other folk if there was no coin in it. Citizen stole a look at the smoking wreckage of the shuttle, and then shot a look at the two men sitting next to him. He pulled back the slide just enough to catch a glint of brass, and gently guided it back into place. There wasn’t much he could do now but follow their lead. The feds wouldn’t believe that he was running with these guys by accident.

But then he was a business man. Citizen stood up and holstered his weapon.

“What the…” Safe began before Citizen cut him off.
“This is my gorramn town, I’ll handle this, put those weapons away and follow me.” He said with blustered self importance. Safe and Jack looked at each other, as their minds were made up for them by the security forces.

“Who the hell are you!” The sergeant barked.
“’ullo sergeant, Citizen, at your service.” Citizen said, removing his hat. “I represent the small business concerns around here; we depend on this space port for our business.” Citizen took a step closer to the man, who looked ready to draw down on him there and then.
“Who are they?” He barked, swiping a hand in the direction of Jack and Safe without taking his eyes off Citizen.
“Business colleagues of mine, times like this even a respectable business man such as myself can’t be too careful, you understand.” He paused for a beat, glancing back at the devastation in the shuttle bays. “I don’t suppose we could come to some little, arrangement, regarding the clean up contract here, could we?” The sergeant looked at him with disgust.
“We don’t hire the likes of you, I should have you three arrested for being here, but I doubt your worth the paper work, get the hell outta my sight before I shoot all three of you.” Citizen dipped his hat.
“Some people just don’t know a good deal.” He said backing off slowly. Jack and Safe edged back slowly behind him. Citizen turned and led them out of the space port.

“What was that all about?” Jack said, spitting his anger out at Citizen once they were outside. “We could of taken ‘em.”

“I told you.” Citizen shot back. “This is my gorramn town.” He pulled up a hatch that led to the network of Sewers and tunnels that made up his underground network. They dropped down, and were safely off the street. “Now, I think we should talk about who you fellas really are, and what you’re really doing on Boros.”

Just then there were more footfalls from further up the tunnel, followed by a surprised shout.
“Oh!, Look! Look! There are people up ahead! Let’s go introduce ourselves!”

Citizen turned, pulling his pistol far faster than you would expect for a man in that hat.
"What the hell are people doing in my..." He trailed off as he caught a glimps of the people further up the tunnel. "Is that..."

REPEATED FROM THE PREVIOUS THREAD:

Quote:

Bride6 stops herself just before lobbing the grenade in her hand. She turns to Bride7. "Hey, don't we know those guys? Why, it's the guys we picked up during the Reaver attack! It's Mister Safe, and Mister Jack, and..."

Citizen takes a closer look at the pair of women. His eyes strain in the dim light to make out the features of the curly haired blonde. "Bobby Sue, is that you?"

Bride6 blushes, eyes downcast. "Hello, Mister Citizen."

Bride7 chuckles. "So you know this guy, too?"

"Uh huh. I used to work for him."

"She was a dancer," Citizen informs the group.

Bride6 looks up and glares at Citizen. "I was an ACTRESS!" Bride6 insists, face redder than before.

From above, there is another explosion.

* The back half of the shark disappears under a hail of spam. TheRealMe sputters as he finally gets some air. *

Thanks, Rat!

*PR starts pulling in the rope, and he pulls the end up on to the boat. The rope end is now singed and has specks of spam on the end. PR looks down into the water.* Oh.

*PR turns round to see a crowd of pirates looking at him.* Hi?

Another explosion rumbled through the tunnels, dislodging long forgotten dust and who knows what from the ceiling and over head piping. It rained down on the group as the explosion rumbled away.

Citizen turned on Jack and Safe.
"Who, exactly are you guys?"
