OOC: Oh, come on! Releasing her was an accident!!! 
"Alright, this is the way it's going to work. Teams of two, regardless of where you go. I don't want anyone getting seperated and the FemaleReaver replacing them. That goes for all of the crew, too. If that's okay, Me."
TheRealMe nods, so Soul continues.
"Once you pair off, come up with a simple question and answer that only the other person will know. That way if you ever get seperated from your partner, you can confirm if they are still, indeed, them. The FemaleReaver can impersonate people, but she can't read minds."
Soul waits as people pair off.
"Okay, let's check the ship, wing by wing, deck by deck. We have to find her before she can cause any more havoc. Come by my office before you begin. I've pretty much got an armory in there under lock and key."
Soul leads the way, crossing the balconies to the Security Office. He makes his way through the door, and then stops dead in his tracks, TRM nearly bowling him over.
"Oh," Soul nearly whispers, "This is so not good."
Soul's desk has been thrown against the far wall, and the mini-armory in the wall stands open.
Empty.

follows TRM and soul into the security office, and stops dead in his tracks...
"Uh... Soul, you mind informing me what all was in there?? I have a lot of blades people can borrow, and I guess I can live with one handgun, but, well, blades and one gun isn't probably gunna help much..."
BC Paws nervously at the butts of his guns

"Ooh, I'm gonna kill her with my bare hands. She took my bow and arrows! And my arrowheads! Some of those arrowheads are seriously dangerous. But she took my bow!!!"

Backs away slowly from the madly ranting Soul
"What kinda arrowheads, and how are they incredibly dangerous?"

Soul sighs.
"They were designed for me by a guy who dabbled in a strange combination of dark magics and science. They basically become whatever the holder wishes them to be."

Okay... I'll stick around sick bay for now. I have a horrible feeling I'm going to be needed.

"Oh damn... that doesn't sound good... we need to find this chick NOW!!! Put a stop to her 'fore she can hurt anyone... you know how to use a handgun Soul? Here..."
Tosses soul one of his .45's and a few daggers
"we're also gunna need someone with a tranq for me... based on what I've heard about her... and my... condition, there is an extreme possibility that I may get kinda dangerous... and if the tranq doesn't work, promise me you'll put me down 'fore I can hurt anyone"
As he is speaking BC's pupils start to dialate and turn black, while the whites of his eyes take on a blood red tinge

Tosses soul one of his .45's and a few daggers
"As Security Chief, I'm kinda required to know pretty much every weapon, but if I don't have my bow, I prefer something a little more close up. I do appreciate the daggers, but I've got something of my own."
He closes his eyes, and his right hand shimmers, fading. A moment later, his eyes open. In his right hand lies a dagger, the blade dark as night, with some sort of alien writing casting a green glow. The handle is shaped like a scorpion's tail, curving around his closed fist to end in a rather sharp looking stinger.
"That guy that made me the arrowheads, also made me this."

"Don't worry, I've got an old friend that needed a tranq every now and then. I think the two of you might have a similar past."
Soul reaches into a drawer of the destroyed desk and pulls out a small dermal injector.
"If I need to, I know how to use this. I guess you're with me, then."

In the change room just off the pool area shortly before the Sereni-Tree’s jump to hyper space, there is a loud bang accompanied by flash of light, not unlike a strike of lightning, and a large cloud of smoke.
The lights in the room brighten, popping one by one. Until only one stubborn light remains, flickering like a flame in a wind storm.
The smoke eventually clears. In the center of the room kneels a large powerful naked man, head down, one hand holding the pommel of a large broadsword whose tip is imbedded in the floor.
He slowly raises his head and looks around, confusion clearly written all over his face.
As he scans the room his eyes come to rest on a dark slight figure crouched atop the lockers in a corner.
Scraggly hair hangs over the figures face and it seems quite at ease, but the newcomer can’t quite shake the predatory feeling emanating off the figure. But to his trained eye, it is obviously female, and his natural instincts take over.
The newcomer stands, a broad confidant grin now replaces his previously confused look, and he bows grandly, seemingly oblivious to the fact he has no clothes on.
“Good evening m‘lady.”
As he rises back up the figure launches itself at the him, two wicked looking swords flash out, one catching the surprised newcomer in the left shoulder the other he is able to grab with his hand. The figure pivots in mid air bringing her feet around kicking the newcomer in the chest. He crashes into the lockers behind him, caving in the doors.
He grunts slightly and wrenches the one blade from the dark figure, in the same movement snapping off the blade stuck in his shoulder with the palm of his other hand. She leans in and tries to bite his face but the newcomer manages to throw the figure backwards and she crashes into the opposite lockers. The newcomer grabs his broad sword and stands to face the figure only to find no sign of her. Both blades, even the broken one, are gone too.
Hunh...

**OOC: Just wanted to let you all know that I was approved for disability yesterday, so my nightmare is basically over! I wanted to take a quick opportunity to thank all of you who were so supportive during this whole mess. You'll never know how much it meant -- and still means -- to me!! You guys are the greatest!!**
**jake7 grabs a large pack of batteries and changes the ones in her remote.**
Well, got my remote ready -- I'm sure we'll need it!
I guess I'll have to be careful that I don't trap the femalereaver inside with myself and whomever I'm with!
