Das Steube Eric paused, mulled it over, then nodded. "Yea, you COULD kick my a**, one handed or not. I'm not arguing this fact. The fact stands that we're packing an awful lot of scared, angry, ciolent and other wise space-disaster traumatized folks on an ity-bity ship. You figure that into it, plus the fact that there's some Stone you folks keep talkin' 'bout, and we're in for a rough night. I have GOT to get these folks offa my hulk or it's gone, we die, and the Kore laughs at us 'cause we're ******** RETARDED!" "Then drop us off." Pen said, "There's a small planet in close rang, it's inhabitable but currently empty of any colonies. Drop us off there, and head on to your much loved safety." Pen squeezed her eyes closed for a moment, before opening them again. "Jarred? We need to talk."

Ruby St.Claire "Then drop us off." Pen said, "There's a small planet in close rang, it's inhabitable but currently empty of any colonies. Drop us off there, and head on to your much loved safety." Pen squeezed her eyes closed for a moment, before opening them again. "Jarred? We need to talk." Eric shook his head. "I'll drop you off with the Cap'n. It's safer that way. Plus, I don't want cons getting out in my lanes taking my coin." Eric paused, and shook his head, "And when I say 'We're all gonna die' that includes you guys, too. I ain't down for none that. Particularly one helpful."

Jarred grunted non-committal at the discussion between the two, but walked over to Pen. "Aye, what's the matter, Pen?"

((That's what I was trying to figure out as well.))
"I new it included us, Eric." Pen turned to Jarred, "The stone, I think it is the girl." She nodded towards Lia who was still holding Haldis by the throat.

((Captain is a charecter that may or may not be fully introduced depending on how the guild goes. In short, he's the Captain of the Hunters, depending on how the guild goes, yet again. Just know that he's a good guy, and will have the others taken care of.))
Eric paused, and sighed.
"Let's go. We're ducks for the Kore."

Cookie groaned and let out a small cry, coming to for a second time. The organs and bones had stopped rippling under her skin--mostly--but the pain of the healing was worse than that of the injury, in her opinion. She was sure she would never get used to it entirely, no matter how many times someone shot projectiles through her flesh.
She very slowly turned in her side and waited for her vision to clear, calling out in a soft mental plea for someone to help her.

Haldis glanced down at Cookie briefly. "Help? Don't worry about Help, silly, just play the games." She gave a slight shake to her little head and bounded further into the prison, laughing a childish laugh.

"Haldis!" Pen yelled, chasing after the child, her arm still bleeding and leaving a small trail of dotted red behind her. She paused at Cookie, and raised an eyebrow. "you're still alive?" Her question was cut short as her attention turned back to following the tinkling laughter through the prison.

"Chasing her is pointless," Cookie breathed. Her eyes failed to focus, but the loss was plain in Pendari's mind.

Pendari reluctantly turned around. "I don't know how I can help you. I won't be able to lift you, and as you said you heal fast. There's not much I can do." Pen glanced back at the prison. "I need to find her."

Cookie sighed and slowly reached up to pull the last of the makeup from her face and arms, revealing her far more youthful form. "Just because I heal fast," she whispered, "doesn't mean it's fast enough to get to that ship in time. I don't weigh much at this" She finished her words telepathically as she ran out of breath and began to wheeze.

"The ship isn't likely to leave very soon, and if I catch the damned stone, then we won't have to worry about it." Pen glanced down at Cookie, but grudgingly offered her the only hand she had available. "Come on. I'll take you most of the way there, till you can make it on your own, then I'm going after the girl."
(A warning of sorts, Pen can barely keep herself standing, despite her ability to run. It's not particlarly likely that she'll be able to help Cookie very far. I'm suspecting she might collapse very soon.)

((Cookie will notice with closer proximity. She normally would already, but she's kind of out of it.))
"Thank..." The immortal took her hand slowly and brought herself to a shaky stand, holding her other arm across her chest for modesty. The flak had destroyed her clothes. She was slow and unsteady on her feet as they made their way back towards the Star's Light.

Cookie wasn't the only one slow and unsteady on her feet. With the added weight Pen started getting slightly dizzy, her color dropped and a slight sheen came over her skin. "Gautrine, Gautrine Pendari. They used to call me Gautry, when I was younger, or just Trin." She smiled awkwardly, her silver-lilac eyes losing a bit of focus. "Most people seem to call me Pen, now, though. It's a name coined by the guy with the freaky-weird hair."
