Tabitha's ship was a mixture between metal and wood. it was very elegant and beautiful, a very fine aircraft. Her crew was getting ready for the lift off and making sure everything was in place. Tabitha stood close to the ramp, making sure nobody could get on. Then, she felt a tap on her shoulder, she whipped around to see a girl speaking about getting out of the dome. Tabtiha smiled widely.

As he continued on down the mock up of a dock, the slate coloured bricks stretching out under his feet, the crowd began to lessen, and so did his chances of finding anyone really worth robbing. No matter, he didnt really want to bother with that kind of thing this morning, his head was still pounding a little too hard for him to bother with really tricky slights of hand.
Hunching over a little, he shoved his hands into his deep pockets, shouldering against the fake wind. His eyes narrowed to slits to stop them stinging as he turned his inqusition upwards a little, panning right to the ships, one catching his eye.
Sky Pirates were readying to leave, it was a rare sight to see such a nice ship too, its lines and angles all smooth and planed in the classical style, cherry-wood exterior giving the whole thing a touch of romance. But then sky pirates, although rouges, had always held some mystic charm for Kirus. He had often wondered where they go, what thier missions consist of when they cant leave the confines of the dome. Granted, the dome was a hell of a long way up, and over a country in length and width now for sure, but still...surely it took the mystery out of exploration when you knew you werent really discovering.
He recognised some of the crew members as some of those he had been drinking with the night before, though he was pretty damn sure none of them would have been able to remember his face if they had even taken the effort to make a note of his features.

Lotus Panda Performer Tabitha's ship was a mixture between metal and wood. it was very elegant and beautiful, a very fine aircraft.

Then, she felt a tap on her shoulder, she whipped around to see a girl speaking about getting out of the dome. Tabtiha smiled widely. *Maya smiled uneasily back at the young-looking girl whom she had just asked about the sky pirates. After all, Maya was not used to doing this sort of thing, and she was quite nervous about asking to join them. But if she never asked she'd never get anywhere. She seized up all of her courage. "Are you a sky pirate?" she asked the girl in front of her. "Because if you are, I'd like to know if I can join." Maya looked down at her feet, suddenly embarassed by her words, and waited for an answer.

He watched for a moment, amused as a young girl introduced herself to the pirates, she looked anything but, and he knew that this was not her usual crowd. He enjoyed seeing how others reacted to people, since he was so often outside of circles and socioties, it wasnt a difficult task.
She fidgeted a little, and he wondered just what the pirate female would say to her. Some were so brashly spoken. It didnt bode well to have manners in such an occupation. It was a rough and ready job for people of the same caliber.
He brought a hand up to scratch at his brow and rake it back through the mass of matted and dreaded locks, twisting one that was loose and forcing its taming a little more than was needed, the wind only whipped it out again.

"Yes i am." Tabitha said nodding her head, a grin painted on her face. "This isn't a playground child, i may look like a young'un but i'm older than every single person in this dome." Tabitha said and walked up the ramp. She snapped her fingers and the ramp snapped back onto the boat she yelled hoarsely "Lets Fly boys!" the smooth ship began to lift into the air.

Last knot tied, Kirayalin stepped back quickly as the ship lifted into the air. She grabbed hold of the rope to use as an anchor just in case. The sense of vertigo was not as bad now that she was used to it - but sometimes taking off still made her feel slightly dizzy. The ship had steadied and she let go of the rope, curiously looking over towards the newcomer speaking to the Captain while trying to make out she was busy rechecking the knots.

*Frustrated, Maya walked off towards the so-called forest. Who did that girl think she was calling her a child? Appearance wise, Maya had been at least a couple years older than her. Yet she said that she was older than everyone on the ship. Maya sighed. "Whatever. I'll find my own way out of this dome. I don't need anyone. Never have, never will." She walked until she was deep in the fake trees. With her mind, she uprooted the smallest one and sent it flying faster than all but her eyes could see upwards to the roof of the dome. It took about 3 minutes for Maya's keen ears to hear the thud of the tree hitting the top of the dome. Her heart sank. Obviously, it was a long way up and it would take more work than she could ever imagine to get out through the top.

Kirayalin quickly put her head down as the Captain glanced back at them, then abandoned pretence completely and hung over the rail to get a better look at what was going on. A few of the other crew members followed suit, jostling for the better positions to watch the confrontation.

*Maya tried to appear nonchalant, but she could not supress the grin rising to her face. "Of course!" she exclaimed. Finally, FINALLY, she was going to get out of this dome, and she wouldn't have to do it by herself. Not only that, but it was the first time someone had told her that what she could do was a valuable talent. Maya could destroy everything within the dome if she wanted, which she hardly considered to be an asset, and for the first time in her life, she didn't feel like a freak. She was definitely ready to take this step into the unknown, and willingly followed the captain back to the ship.

looking quite pleased with herself Tabitha lead the girl back to her ship. The crew leaned over the boat. Tabitha frowned and yelled "Get back to work!" She jumped onto the boat and held her hand out her small hand to help The girl onto the boat. "I'm Tabitha by the way and this here is the crounching weasel" she gestured slowly to the boat she stood on.
Her bright eyes seemed to refract the sun and glow red. There was a strange vibe and aura about her like she had seen it all and she was bored with life. Like tabitha had nothing better to do than question humanity and science.

Kirayalin leapt back to work with the others. As it seemed they were about to take off again after the sudden landing, she busied herself tying yet more knots and making sure evrything was still fixed in place; anything that had come loose from the jolting was liable to roll off the deck when they took off again otherwise.

*Maya took Tabitha's hand and instead of using it to help her onto the boat, Maya shook it, leaping onto the boat herself. "I'm Maya," she said returning the introduction. "Thanks for letting me join. This is a beautiful ship. Is there anything specific you want me to do? What are the names of the crew?" All of a sudden, Maya couldn't stop talking. " And, if it's not rude for me to ask, what do you mean, you are older than everyone in the dome? How old are you?" Maya was embarrassed by her unusual talkativeness. But she really did want all of these questions answered and probably even more soon enough.

Tabitha smiled at Maya's curiousity. and said "Im actually 271 years old, my birthday is coming up...i think..i've lost track...and i'm a demon so i cant die of anything, i'm basicly already dead and if someone try to kill me like stab me or shoot me in the heart i just regenerate, but i never grow up so it really sucks." tabitha sighed and then began again "well this here.." she pointed to Kirayalin "is Kirayalin, shes the best crew meamber we've got tell you that right now.." tabitha made a half shrug as some of the bigger burly men grumbled "ai that tabitha be a feisty one." Tabitha's head snapped back as she glowered at him"What did you say Pere?" her eyes were a flaming red. he cowered in her gaze. "Ai...miss....uh.." drops of sweat trickled down his forehead tabitha frowned and suddenly, he was screaming in pain, collasping onto the wooden ship deck grasping his neck like it was being choked, he was being totured with his own mind. she raised her hand and he floated into the air then she let go and he plumetted onto the dock with a hard SPLAT!. Tabitha sighed as if had actually took effort to do this. ( which it didnt) and said "ok everyone lets get moving" as she walked up tp the steering wheel she glanced back at maya and said "oh you can just....stay up here with me until i find a spot for you" she gave sweet smile.
