Book's Move

Location: Bridge

Book enters the bridge hurriedly and and goes through the ignition sequence, ensuring no landlocks have been put in place.

Book aloud to himself or anyone on the bridge

"Where's Wash? I can't do this fast enough."

Nearby shots ring out again and then die back down just as quickly. Book stands and goes to the window in the front of the ship, looking down almost underneath where he is, he see's two men approaching Serenity, one helping the other who's wounded.

Book over the intercom to Simon

"Doctor, to the cargo bay, right away. There's a hurt man down there!"

Book looks out the front window of Serenity again, hoping to see Wash coming into view.

OOC: Sorry for the delay, folks. My timetable has been a little screwy today. I should be able to post in the next couple of hours for Zoe. I'll put up something for Wash, too. (Still bummed about Zach having to leave... )

Edited the alpha post to reflect Zach's absence & instigate a casting call. Will update Humble's info when I hear back about whether he can stay to the end of the thread.

~A~

...I'm still free,
You can't take the sky from me.

Damon's turn:

Damon stumbles back as Brink reaches for him. He looks at the hand skeptically. Too many questions. Who is he? What ship is this? Where will they be going? But with each passing second his fatigue increases and the questions seem less and less important.
He looks up from the outstretched hand and gives a slight nod. He winces as the stranger wraps his arm around his aching body, mumbles a curse and concentrates on staying conscious, only half aware of where he's being taken and not sure if he really cares anymore.

Everyone dies alone...

Kaylee's Move:
Location: Engine Room

Kaylee begins putting up some of her tools as she hears the engine start to tick through her ignition sequence. She pauses a moment, turning her head a bit. Giving a slight nod, she continues with her chores, all the while thinking about Simon.

End Move

Thorne's Move:

OOC: I'll get Wash and myself on board, if that's OK.

Getting nearer the berthing area, Thorne gets held up behind a slow-moving mule towing a trailer. The trailer's cargo is cases marked Patron - Reposado - Mos Fino, so Thorne figures this is the Captain Mal's decoy cargo of Tequila. He decides to hang back and follow it to the firefly.

A row of ships comes in sight, and the mule heads for the only firefly in the bunch. Thorne sees two men walking toward the ramp, one half supporting the other. He thinks: "Crew with a snoot-full? Hope I don't have to travel with a bunch of drunks." A moment later he sees a squad of Feds and a combat car round the corner and head for the two men, and decides he'd rather they were just drunks.

As the mule bumps up the cargo ramp, the combat car fires a burst, which goes over the men's heads but nails the cargo trailer dead center. Thorne groans as streams of tequila pour from the gaping holes.

Thorne hears the firefly's engines start to spin up as the two men reach the ramp. "Guess that's the 'all aboard'". Horn blaring, he drives the stolen truck through a hail of small arms fire right up the ramp into the hold of the ship, incidentally providing cover for the two men limping up the other side. Unable to stop in time, he crashes into the trailer of booze, breaking even more bottles. "Damn. Hope there's enough left for a toast to good plans gone bad." he thinks as he bails out of the truck and draws his revolver.

LOCATION-INFIRMARY

Simon finishes the injection when the intercom clicks on...

BOOK
over the intercom to Simon
"Doctor, to the cargo bay, right away. There's a hurt man down there!"

SIMON
puts away the tools he was using and closes the cryobox, but does not lock it.
*Ai-ya! Nee ta ma duh. Tyen-shia suo-yo duh run doh gai si!!!

{*from the Chinese = "Damn! F*** everyone in the universe to death"}

SIMON retrieves medikit and unlocks the infirmary. Then turns and re-locks it from the outside. Moves towards the cargo bay at a leisurely, if not pained, pace

OOC: CapnRahn, ebon - good word. You do have an artist's soul

I would say if she does have iris inflections, the only time the flecks would be visible would be in the light of the holo-billiards. Brown eyes are often so dark that you can't see any detail unles you get REALLY close. Rowan's are of that deep dark chocolate shade, but I would be inclined to lean toward light gold and a flash of green, seen as she's leaning into a shot.

And now I must save this in my notes.

GEEZER! What have you done!!

"But why is the tequila gone?!?"

I draw, therefore I am

OOC: Don't worry, 'Ebon-eyes', I'm looking out for you. There'll be a few surviving bottles. Besides, Thorne might have some other goodies in his truck. Any requests?

OOC: lol to Channain's rum line. Geezer: Beer!!! Damon likes beer... though anything with alcohol will work.

Damon's turn:

Damon wonders what the guay is going on and whether or not he needs to be worried about it. Strangers, an unknown ship, trucks, breaking glass, shots being fired and he can't do anything about it. He looks back as the ship's door starts closing. Damn those Feds for leaving him in this situation.

Everyone dies alone...
