Jarred used his enhanced senses and reactions, getting past the crowds and catching up with Pen, grabbing her arm and spinning her around. "Pen, wait! Talk to me." He released her arm.

Pendari looked at the area around her, the corners possibly filled with spies, the crowds not too far behind. "I can't, Jarred."

Ruby St.Claire Pendari looked at the area around her, the corners possibly filled with spies, the crowds not too far behind. "I can't, Jarred." "Pen, you're trying to kill everyone here, and you seem dedicated enough that even a good offer can't sway you, so I think you at least owe me some form of explanation." Jarred put both hands in his pockets, sighing. "Sides, I can always catch up with you."

Pendari stepped closer, her voice dropping to a quiet whisper. "Meet me in the captain's quarters in a couple hours. I can't talk here Jarred. I'll explain there. Please, Jarred."

ArynChris Cookie eyed Myke, then pushed him out to door, too. Just trust that she's inherently stronger than him and that anything him did to try and stay--such as grab hold of the doorframe, her, the door itself, a countertop--wouldn't work.
She closed and locked the door, tapping on it three times with one knuckle to let Jack know.
Shuffling back to the counter, face like stone, she started cleaning up the ingredients and bowl their intruders had knocked over. Haldis looked up at Cookie. "They were silly, no? Think he could do it? Keep her safe from them?" Haldis chuckled, she didn't know, and there were very few things Haldis didn't know.

Ruby St.Claire Pendari stepped closer, her voice dropping to a quiet whisper. "Meet me in the captain's quarters in a couple hours. I can't talk here Jarred. I'll explain there. Please, Jarred." "Two hours. Deal." He whispered back, turning and walking away,heading towards the bar again.

Myke being forced out of a room by an old woman and essentially being left in the dark on a conversation, enraged him. Upon leaving the kitchen, he went wild, taking and flipping tables over in the bar and grabbing a nearby convict who was unfortunate to not be disguised yet, and hurl him across the room, smashing into a pool table in the rec room, then Myke would proceed to storm out of the Bar.

Cookie looked at the girl with an expression that said she'd just been handed yet another lemon, when what she really wanted was some sugar. "Hally, he's posturing and posing, trying to save her skin, but in the end there's very little he can do. She and he both can and will be found if they try to escape, and she's not planning to try it. Even if he changes her mind, they can run no farther than the next refuel point before the chase begins."
The old woman snorted. "What I find funny is that little vow to erase her. He can't do it, you know. He likes to think he can, but the galaxy is too big and she's been seen by too many people over the course of her life. There are closed databases he will never be able to access--I've seen some of them. Completely alien and incompatible programming, some that you just physically cannot get to without blowing the safeties... And I'm sure you know about the one in Uchron Sect. I'd rather not see that one go, personally. It was such a good idea."

Pen nodded at Jarred, watching him walk away. She waited in the hallway, hearing Myke's temper tantrum sounding throughout the bar. She didn't want to get caught up with that by any means. She turned down another route, quietly slipping away. She had to get in a few more kills before the next two hours.

She glanced at the door, hearing the noise outside from Myke's fight. She was tempted to go out and see it, her curiousity pulling at her. "Think the big guy might want a wish?" She chuckled at her own cleverness.

Myke, clearly not finished pitching a fit, came back into the bar holding another inmate up high above his own head by the throat and brings him down hard and fast through a bartable, breaking it into splinters...probably the inmates spine too. Now he was in the bar, looking for a fight and he could bet there were plenty of inmates willing to give it to him. ((Any wanna play an Inmate? =3 ))

((For the record: yes, Jarred could not erase every person who's ever seen her and him, but when it comes to the data, it would be hard to keep something from him. Even if it was offline, he could potentially find a way. Ultimately, he could keep local placed from having an accurate picture, or prevent the notice from getting to places like re-fueling stations. And then there's the matter of bribing folks.
So not perfect, but you give him too little credit. He's a capable sum-b***h. Just try putting him in a holding cell on a big war-ship. Pen tried that. Pen lost her ship.))

"Depends. Think granting him a wish might get Pen back for something else from you? Like a reward? She might not know about you yet, but if you keep playing around she might decide you'd be the perfect Christmas present for the boss this year."
She finished cleaning up and sighed as she brought out the ingredients again to remix things. "Stop being cute and use your head, little one. If you don't grow up fast, you're going to get caught or killed, if not both. And I do not mean--!"

Spritekin Myke, clearly not finished pitching a fit, came back into the bar holding another inmate up high above his own head by the throat and brings him down hard and fast through a bartable, breaking it into splinters...probably the inmates spine too. Now he was in the bar, looking for a fight and he could bet there were plenty of inmates willing to give it to him. ((Any wanna play an Inmate? =3 )) One of the inmates, a man with dark black hair and a tawny complexion dived at Myke. "Calm down, big dude, you're going to tear a whole in the ship if you aren't nice and carefull."

"Gautry was always a cute little thing, even when growing up, but she's gotten mean and tired." Haldis sighed and kicked the counter. "Are my cookies done yet?" She ignored the comments about being childish, she could be childish if she wanted, she was old enough and young enough at the same time it didn't really matter.
