looks at SR's retreating back
"...huh, he always like that? Also, I hope he doesn't think I'm a total idiot, I mean, I'd have to be pretty ruttin' stupid to fire a gun in an engine room, plus I like my blades more anyway"
With that BR'07 gives a feral grin and begins to walk away

*ponders*
(OOC: I was busy posting so I crossed over yours.)
"Yes there are some children and they are well guarded. The best thing is to stay in groups and not go off alone poking in dark nooks and crannys. You don't know this ship at all that makes you particiularly vulnerable. When TRM comes up with a plan he will let you know."

"Well then I guess we had better be double careful. Seven if you are going to stick around best stay alert. Now no shooting in here, to many things in here don't react well to bullets. I am heading down dirtside, but it looks like you have things well in hand. I'm just going back into my cave to change then I'll be on my way. If things were really bad TRM would have asked me to stick around."
SR goes back into his quarters and changes from his work clothes to loose pants, calf boots, a peasants shirt, a leather jerkin and a cloak. He straps his cutlass to his waist along with several belt pouches. He then emerges out into main engineering and has Jet open the vault door just long enough for him to leave. He makes his way uneventfully to the shuttle bay where he preflights the Napoleon. The board is all green when he opens up a channel on his com-link to the bridge,
"Bridge this is SR in the Napoleon B requesting permission to depart."
Scorpion Regent
SR waits for a reply when something inside him clicks, "Bridge, belay that, my trip can wait and there are people who need me here." He punches up his com-link to contact Seryn.
"Seryn?"

"Don't know if I'd be... vulnerable to a single Reaver, but I can understand the not looking for trouble bit, only problem is, trouble aways deems it necessary to find ME... but, yeah, will do. The not wandering into dark nooks bit, and the waiting for TRM."

After a while of wandering the more populated areas of the ship, BC finds himself looking into an empty bunk that he decides to claim. The bunk is furnished with rich, dark oak floorboards, a large closet made of the same oak, as well as a small writeing table/book shelf. The closet takes up most of the west wall, while th desk sits against the east wall. On the wall over the desk is a scroll with the chinese kanji for solitary warrior on it, and there is a display hook for a sword over the bed. The bed is neatly made, with a dark forrest green blanket on it and it takes up space against the north wall.
"Perfect... now, to find my way to the gym and the pool from here, and mabey get in a few laps and some practice time in..."
BC grabs his gym bag and sets off to the gym carrying his katana...

Jet smiles at both BC and SR as they are departing. "TheRealMe gave a full briefing on the FamaleReaver situation in a long post on this thread dated March 29. Here is a link. And yes, I'm sure that TheRealMe will come up with a plan."
Jet, Bride4
OCC: So Soul releases this horrid menace, but I have to come up with a plan? 
Okay, I suppose I will, but I'm busy IRL, so maybe not until Saturday morning. Until then, you all can have at it, but don't write FemaleReaver as being stupid or easy to take down. She is an arch-enemy calliber villain.

OCC: Yes I know all that, but my character doesn't read the threads constantly, maybe he should but no one's perfect. Sometimes being captain means taking care of a problem whether or not you caused it. Hey it comes with the hat! Captain also means that you can order someone else to take care of it, like Soul. Up to you, but you are the captain of the Serenitree and somewhere on your ship is a deranged killer is ready to strike. I have IRL stuff to do too, so I won't be back for at least 10 hours.

For a second time, TheRealMe gathers most of the crew in the briefing room. Soul and some of his deputies are acting as armed guards.
"Let me illustrate how crafty the FemaleReaver is. Computer! Locate the FemaleReaver!"
"The FemaleReaver is in the briefing room."
There are a number of gasps as everyone present starts eyeballing his or her neighbor.
TheRealMe drops a small metallic object on the podium in front of him. "This is the tracer beacon we once imbedded in her. She dug it out with a kitchen knife."
There are sighs of relief.
"However, that doesn't mean that she ISN'T her, possibly in a disguise."
Murmurs fill the room.
"But I do have a method of finding her. We will assemble a Security detail, and I will open one of my dimensional portals directly to her. That should be fool-proof."
As TheRealMe finishes, the entire ship shudders. TheRealMe pulls out his com-link. "Bride4! What just happened?"
Jet's voice answers through the link: "We just jumped to hyperspace, silly."
TheRealMe is concerned. "Why? On what course? Who gave the order?"
Jet sounds concerned. "Why, YOU did... didn't you? The command was input from the Bridge. It had all the correct authentication codes, so..."
"Soul, with me to the Bridge. But leave a few guards here."
TheRealMe and Soul lead some secturity deputies out of the briefing room, up a few flights of stairs, and around the upper balcony to the Bridge entrance. With weapons ready, they open the door and rush in.
Quincey lies in the middle of the deck in a pool of blood, unmoving.
"Check her! Be wary!" TheRealMe calls as he makes his way to a control station. TheRealMe taps furiously at the control panel.
"She's alive," Soul reports. "I'll have her carried to Sickbay. What course did FemaleReaver put us on?"
"Can't tell. She input the course, activated the Jump Drive, then erased the data record."
"That's bad!"
"It's worse. I can't fold space inside of hyperspace. Too many folds. I won't be able to open a portal to wherever she is. And we can't exit the ship or alter course or drop out of hyperspace until we reach this unknown destination."
TheRealMe, Captain of the Sereni-Tree

OCC: Sorry, SR, I thought you just missed the briefing. Oh, and I'll find a way to make things interesting.

OOC: Like they aren't interesting enough. Damn! this means SR really can't go to Zanzibar, perhaps some other time. I have to go to work IRL. Back later.
