Welcome to Gaia! ::

Raven turned and look up at her first mate, Understandable, but things have just become very complicated. Xhu-Xhu's here." She watched at Duncan's face change to reflect tension and anger. "I already got Gale to send out the message, they're to meet back at the usual spot instead of heading directly back to the Grey Gale," she was referring to the Akuda's private rooms reserved for those who wanted to hold meetings off the ship.

"Aye, Cap'in," the large man nodded before asking, "Are we goin' on as business as usual?"

"Aye, Xhu-Xhu isn't putting a big monkey wrench into our plans. Let's not give him that pleasure," Raven turned back to Fayt. "Will you be in port long? If so join us for some drinks at Akuda and maybe I might dance with you," she smirked at him, Fayt was a good man. "Seeya around," she walked passed the captain followed by loyal Duncan. They had a few people to go visit, the first of which was a dealer that owed Raven money.

The nearest mechanic happened to be Rig.

“Like my assistant Mey told you, there’s a back up of repair requests. I’m sorry Mr. MacDuncan…I can call you Mr. MacDuncan? Anyways, the N.E. ship gets serviced first because the longer they are here, the worse off the rest of us will be.” Rig looked at the famous Red Steel. “And I’ve been graced with so many famous people today, it’s almost unbearable.” There was a slight grumble in Rig’s voice. He didn’t mean to be rude, but Commander Xhu had sent him off in a bad mood. “And word of advice. Don’t mess with the commander of that ship,” Rig gestured to the N.E. Battle Claw, “It’s best you don’t know him.”
"You make a good point about him needing to get outta here quickly," He flashed a smile "But why can't I meet the nice commander and have a nice chat, whats the worst that could happen," he got serious again "Oh an if your worried will break stuff dont my men are all either drunk or on errands, or both, and he wouldnt attack me in neutrel ground," He looked around "So where is he?"
They don’t say the famous Red Steel is cocky for no reason, Rig thought to himself. “If you’re that desperate to look the devil in the eyes, I can’t stop you from meeting him. We are almost done with the repairs on his ship.” Rig shifted weight restless to get back to work. “Now please excuse me Mr. MacDuncan, I need to get back to work.”

Rig took off to keep working on the N.E. Battle Claw. It was much more rough than the beauty of the Grey Gale. Though now that the Gale was in hiding, looks like he wouldn’t be able to touch…him…again. Gah! For once he fell in love with a ship and it had to be a him! Go figure. The Norad II would be getting service before the Gale, knowing Xhu will linger on the outside of the planet monitoring his “Trade and Stay.” Giving away a secret hanger would be bad for business.

From above, while in his conversation with Dr. Albrooke, the Commander was keeping an eye on the mechanic Rig. And to his delight, another famous Royal Misfit had docked here. He watched as the two carried out their conversation. This truly must be his lucky day. Though he had to move more cautiously now. As the mechanic parted from the famous Red Steel, Xhu's cold calculating mind was reeling fast. He was devising a plan that would keep these Royal Misfits in a weakened position and a reason for them to chase after him. He waited for the doctor's response on her day, and then would give her a most delightful assignment.

James turned from the mechanic and began to walk away but suddenly stopped as he felt he was being watched. After a quick look around he thought it must have just been paranoa and decided he would explore the rest of the station to kill time. He contemplated going to bed but didnt feel the least bit tired and instead decided to check the other levels. " Better watch my back incase any of those N.E. dogs come looking for me," He mumbled as he entered the elevator.

If someone thought the streets of Garguron could not get any dark, then they never really travelled into the heart of the city. This was the part of the city that made the rest of Garguron look like the sleek, clean heart of the Empire. There were hardly any humans here, unless you were a human that was some one slightly important or had business here you were not welcomed and advised to stay clear. If someone looked at you the wrong way gave you grounds to shoot them in the arm or leg here. Why on earth would the young captain of the Grey Gale be here? Why else, money was the reason. For a few months this low-life was cheating Raven out of a considerable amount of platnium.

Captain and first mate stopped in front of what looked like very shady entertainment establishment. Duncan stepped forward, flung open the door to the place, and stared down the bouncers who had made a move to stop them from entering. They moved back once a very unhappy Raven stepped forward into the dimly lit and smoke filled building. "Let's keep this short," she walked passed the bouncers who parted for her, Duncan was close behind her acting much like a personal bodyguard by staring down anyone who looked at them funny. Raven made a her way through the place to the back room where giggling could be heard behind a curtains. This place was revile to Raven and the man she knew was behind the curtains even more now that he was "rich". The captain walked up the the red, velvet curtains, grabbed the two curtain halves, and threw them aside. "Thought you would be here, you vile scumbag. Where's my money?"
Fayt remained in the same spot,thinking over everything she had told him,"Always the flirt she is..but it is true that i will be in port for awhile and i dont really have any plans..."He settled on the idea to just go to the place and have a few to drink,after he sells his goods.He started walking down through the town with his manifest in hand,heading towards his usual dealer.

An young woman sat behind her usual table of stolen goods,yet untraceable as to where they came from and who took them.She was not a well known man among the misfits but she does just as good of a job if not better than those who buys the misfits stolen goods.Her name was known in the underground as the 'Black Lotus.'

Fayt came around the corner only to find her still sitting there as always,he walked up to her,"Well hello again Lotus..i have another shipment if you would like to take a look at it"She looked up at him with a small smile as she took his computer and looked it over,"My...a better haul of good than before i see...very well....heres my price."She handed his computer bck as well as a piece of paper that held some numbers,obviously prewritten."You never cease to amaze me...youve already seen my shipment..well in that case it should be easier for you to get it as well.."he laughed a bit as she just smiled and nodded.Fayt shook her hand in agreement and left towards Akuda for a drink.
The man, a hideous creature with four arms and eight eyes total, shrieked when Raven busted in with Duncan on his little... showcase. She did not know who skrieked more, the scum or the girls. "Out all of you now!" She kept her eye on the man who owed her family, meaning just her now, quite a bit of money and had been skipping town whenever she came to port. "Alright Abuto, stop cowering and cough it up," she took several steps forward as the man stood moving away nervously.

"Ah, ah... C-C-Captain. You see I-I um I..." the man looked pale, or rather paler, and was sweating heavily now. His eyes dodge between Raven, Duncan, and the wall to his left. He was up to something.

Raven, not getting the answer she wanted, started towards the man, hand reaching for her pistol, "I said-" She was cut off as Abuto attacked first. He hurled an acid his kind produced so that they may temporarily blind there prey. The would have hit Raven had she not been quick to react by dodging to the right. It was a long enough delay though for Abuto to run to the wall on the left and push open a secret door. He fled into the alleyway and started to run. "Has to be dificult," Raven grumbled and ran out of the room into the alley as well, Duncan following her out as

well. The woman took out her pistol and aimed at Abuto's legs as he was running for his life down the all. She shot and Abuto was on the ground, crying out in agony.

"Had to run, didn't you?" She fumed as she walked over to Abuto who was crawling now through the grim of the alleyway. When she got to him, she kicked him in the side making him roll over on to his back. "Once again," Raven aimed her pistol at his head, "Where is my money?" She put her right foot over his wounded leg and started to apply pressure till he talked.

"Alright! Alright! I have your... money. It's in a safe... at my house!" Abuto winced as Raven slowly took her foot of his wounded leg. What the captain and first mate duo did not know, was that less then ten feet away around the corner safely hidden was a spy for Commander Xhu. The spy had been sent to meet this Abuto character for information on the captain. They stood just around the corner, listening in on the following conversation:

"Please, have mercy! I have a wife and children!"
"Nice try, I know you have no one, your wife left you and that's why you needed the loan from my father."
"Years as property of the N.E. have done little to make you kind. Why I remember when you were the nicest-"
"Shut up, scumbag!"
There was a silence for a moment.
"Y-You really should get that inplant out of you before some one uses that against you."

"What are you..." Raven happened to just look up at the right time to see the spy glance around the corner. She cursed, now realising why Abuto was saying strange things. He was a snitch! "I hope whatever afterlife you go to Abuto is torture!" She pulled the trigger of her pistol, putting an end to Abuto the Snitch. Now however.... she had a spy to tack down. "Duncan, you get the money, I got this!" And with that the woman was left her first mate and started to chase down the spy who, realising their cover was blow, made a run for it.
Fayt put his computer away and placed it in his pocket,he sighed as he placed his hands on the back of his head.Just as he crossed the alley the spy ran right into him,knocking them both down to the ground."Owe...man..what just hit me..."he sat up and looked at the spy covered up in clothing that covered the entire body,he had no idea if it was a woman or man.At first he wanted to se if the person was alright but stopped when he noticed the clothing belonged to the N.E. government.He stood up and brushed himself off as he straightened himself up and looked down at the person with his hand on his gun.
Good! Someone slowed the spy down by having a full on collision with them. Unfortunately the spy got up again and started to run again. "Hey! Keep 'em there!" Raven shouted but it was too late, the spy had disappeared into the densely crowded streets of the Garguron shopping district. The black and red haired woman slowly came to a stop beside Fayt panting from the run. "Nebula curse it all to the infernos..." she muttered and bent over with her hands on her knees trying to catch her breath.
"Hey now take it easy...you push yourself to much and you'll regret it later.."he placed a hand on her back."Besides..just what info did that person get ahold of to cause you to act like this?"he said quietly enough so only them both could hear.He removed his hand from his pistol,sure about the cost being clear of N.E. spies as well as the ships crew."Come..lets go somewheres and talk about this...the streets are not the best place...."he looked aorund,looking for a spot to hide and talk in secrecy.
Raven nodded, could she really tell him? No, she'd keep him only partially informed. He was loyal but she did not completely trust him. She let herself be lead over to the little cafe to the two captain's right. It was empty and no one would bug them in there. She walked over to one of the booths and slummed down in the chair. "Xhu-xhu's behind this... I know he is," she said, mainly talking to herself and she laid her head down on the cool cool metal of the tabletop.

He got up the following morning and flipped the burners on. He ship was soon hovering and he pushed it forward. It was alot faster than bigger ships and he liked the agility. He twisted the stick that caused it to flip. He then shoved the throttel forward so he moved quickly toward the 'Trade and Stay'. He landed and walked toward the Gray Gale. 'Sitting in the same spot' He thought to himself and he approached the doors. "Im back for an answer." He said smiling.


((The Grey Gale is currently hiding in a secret hanger at the "Trade and Stay" so one wouldn't be able to find it or just walk up to it))


((Excuse that. I will repost.))
As Anndra woke from his slumber he stretched. He then got in his ship and shot back to the 'Trade and Stay' He saw the ship was gone and he got pissed. "Damn..."He muttered and he knew that he might be in trouble. He pulled a handset from his bag and looked for the tracker. It didnt show up and he screamed. Tonight he would call for it in his Eyes Only broadcast. He almost wished that he would find her at the tavern. He went in and order himself a strong drink. He looked around for people that might be able to help him.
Fayt walked over to the bar counter,paying for a couple of drinks of ther finest,it was a bit pricey but for the type he got it was well worth it.He brought the two mugs over to the table,placing one next to Raven before sitting down in the wodden chair,laying back with the mug in hand.He took a swig of the drink,he had missed it so,"Ahh this is so good...."he had a big smile on his face before taking another drink.This second swig ended up being the last one he took as he finished off the mug."Dang..done already...but i was just getting started,"He looked over at Raven,"I understand he could be the major problem..but as long as he does nothing then there is no reason to do anything back at him so long as he stays silent..."
((So is this the assasin I was talking about it in the OOC thread?))
