[22:47] <@Abbas> You work on an artificial planet owned by one of the universe's more prominent businesses. A company that makes its profits by transport and trade.
[22:50] <@Abbas> Or you used to, but you realize as you run past a corner into a tight corridor- narrowly avoiding a barrage of lasers and explosions- that you can't really say that anymore. A man runs amongst your group, dragging one of the maids who was wounded too heavily to move on her own. You recognize him as your master, an aristocrat who aimed too big and lost it all as a result. You are heading to...
[22:50] <@Abbas> ...the hangar, to find a way to escape...
[22:52] <Kaede> "Masta, we goin' to be okay?" Kaede asked, clutching her halberd to her chest with a worried look on her face.
[22:52] * Miki runs on the ceiling, hanging above the others, "How much furhter, Abbasss?"
[22:52] <Tatiana> "Augh!  They're making a mess of everything and everyone!  What the hell is there problem?"  She says with tears brewing in her eyes...
[22:53] * @Yazu runs along with the others, on the ground, leaping and kicking off of walls as needed to avoid gunfire. He seems fairly calm, breathing heavily but in a controlled manner.
[22:54] * Yusa runs beside the others carrying a chainsaw. "What led to this agai-" she leaps over a dead body and runs faster
[22:54] <@Abbas> "W-we may make it! Just a couple rooms! And would somebody help me carry Maxine?!"
[22:54] <Roche> "Yes, my Lord!"
[22:54] * Roche jumbs over, grabbing the girl from her master's arms and hefting her.
[22:55] <Miki> "I'll buy sssome time, Abbasss~" Miki licked at her lips, whirling around with her tail lashing about
[22:55] <@Yazu> "Allow me to help you, Roche." He steps over and effortlessly helps the girl to lift the injured maid.
[22:55] * Yusa nods. "I'll help Miki"
[22:56] <Tatiana> "Me too!"  She nods and follows after Miki, activating her internal weapons systems.
[22:56] <@Abbas> "Thank you!! ...Thank you."
[22:56] <Roche> "Ahh... Yes, thou art a savior in this dire moment! I would have been slowed!"
[22:56] * Miki dashed along the ceiling, spitting formic acid at anyone who came near, and darting between the walls and ceiling to evade incoming fire
[22:57] * Tatiana stands her ground and starts firing off machine guns at distant targets, crisping those who get too close with a flamethrower!
[22:58] * Yusa revs up her CHAINSAW and slices through some close by targets
[22:59] <@Abbas> Miki and Tatiana: You can hear loud swears and cries of pain as you mow down the advancing security force. A turret even explodes nicely, incapacitating even more soldiers.
[22:59] <@Abbas> and Yusa*
[23:00] * Roche continued running with the master, slightly behind Abbas to shield him from any attacks.
[23:00] <@Yazu> "Don't dawdle too long, girls. It would be a shame to leave you all here to die!" He runs along, helping Roche carry Maxine
[23:00] * Miki whirls back around heading back for the master, "I don't intend to die heree~"
[23:01] * @Yazu does shoot the Master an angry glare, though just for a brief moment... he already had reason to hold a grudge, but now allowing THIS to happen?
[23:02] * Yusa turns off her chainsaw and throws it on her back. She turns and catches up with the others
[23:02] <Kaede> "Master, why these men are chasing us?" Kaede asked Abbas, taking up as much cover as her master rather than helping the other maids.
[23:03] <@Abbas> "Oh God, oh God, oh God..." He runs into a sealed door and punches in a number on the nearby numpad. It makes a loud, negative noise and remains firmly shut. After a moment he punches in another code... and it slowly opens. However, thanks to the extra time the maids bought, they make it into the hangar easily. "Move, move! I'll tell you later!"
[23:04] * Kaede follows along closely.
[23:04] * Tatiana 's legs fold down and wheels in her knees and feet are revealed!  She slams into reverse while still keeping her weapons trained in front of her and glancing backwards occasionally to make any necessary corrections in her path.
[23:04] <@Yazu> "Everyone, inside! Now!" He moves to stand in the path of the enemies, intending to take HIS turn to stall them for time.
[23:04] * Yusa jumps into the hangar. "I wonder how many years in prison this is..."
[23:05] * Miki slithers inside to the hangar, her tongue darting about. "The master acts so brave~ It's admirable when he's so clearly terrified~" the girl smiled
[23:06] * Roche stands back next to Yazu for a moment, before taking Maxine in properly and jumping back.
[23:06] * Tatiana launches herself into the air and returns to her bipedal mode, landing with a roll and heading inside the hangar.  "Auuuugh, my uniform is so filthy now!  And all those spent casings...!"
[23:06] * Miki looks around at ships, "These vessels are so strange~ How about this one? Nooo, how about thiisss?"
[23:07] <Kaede> "Master's maids talk very much. Is pain." Kaede complained to Abbas.
[23:07] * @Yazu slips inside as soon as the others are in.
[23:09] * Maxine stretches and yawns. "Ahh, what a great nap....Wait a second, where are we?"
[23:09] * Kaede tries looking around for a suitable ship as well. Anything would do so long as you could get inside...
[23:10] * Miki knocks at one that seems to open, looking to Kaede, "Thisss iss good?"
[23:11] * Kaede hops inside and takes a look around, "Yes, this good. Very nice find Miki." she sauntered out right away and tried to signale Abbas.
[23:11] * @Abbas runs into the entry ramp, making sure all the maids are in. However, the security force is gaining! Even the turrets are starting to hum menacingly, announcing they were about to activate. Robots with drills file out of secret doors!
[23:12] <@Yazu> "... Shall we deal with them Master?"
[23:12] * Miki slinks into the ship, perching on the ceiling with a hiss
[23:12] * Roche dashed next to the master at the sound, stepping in front of him but leaving enough room for him to see properly.
[23:13] * Tatiana rushes onto the entry ramp, training her weapons defensively on the approaching enemies.
[23:13] <Kaede> "Oh no! This bad! Looks very bad!" Kaede somehow couldn't find a way to sit still, of course considering the security robots on the other side...
[23:13] <@Abbas> Suddenly a tank of a robot crashes out of a door, rolling over its own allies on its way to the ship! It reaches an arm forward and launches a chain that anchors itself into the ship's hull! It looks like they'll have no choice but to fight... or seperate that chain.
[23:14] * Miki leaps down, ready to spit acid at the chain, that should work right?
[23:14] * Yusa is about run into the entry ramp but she sees the giant tank crash through. She takes out her chainsaw and revs it up
[23:14] <Maxine> "Well would you look at that, looks like whatever you all did, it made some one angry." she opens her suitcase and assembles a large spear with blinding speed. "Ah, there we go."
[23:14] * Kaede rushes out to the front lines, holding only a haldberd to defend herself against laser weapons and a tank. Obviously she wasn't the sharpest tool in the shed.
[23:15] * Miki retched a line of acid onto the chain, with a hiss
[23:16] * Tatiana tried to hit the tank bot with death by a thousand bullets!
[23:16] * Yusa rushes toward the giant robot and smashes down on it with her chainsaw
[23:17] * Roche 's wings burst from her back and she charged the tank, her longsword flashing out from a concealing burst of feathers!
[23:17] * Kaede simply pushes her halberd straight at it in a piercing movement. It's a simply attack but obviously damages something inside that wasn't meant to be damaged.
[23:18] * Maxine takes a few steps forward and launches her lance. About half way before impact, she presses a button on her suitcase that activates the jet propulsion on the spear, sending it even faster at the tank.
[23:18] <@Abbas> The chain makes a sizzling sound... before it gives way and falls apart. The anchor is still into the ship hull, but you can still fly with no problems.
[23:19] * Miki smirks, skittering back inside
[23:20] <@Abbas> Your fierce attack is a sight to behold! Bullets raining down, motorized blades and weapons punching holes into thick sheets of metal! All the other adversaries back down from such a display, choosing to keep their own lives instead of pursuing you!
[23:20] * Yusa pulls a big grin and puts her chainsaw away. She turns and runs into the ship
[23:20] * Kaede is unfortunately, standing right infront of the tank when Maxine launches her weapon at it. "HEY! Watch for friends stupid sleeping maid!" Kaede complains, running away before it exploded or something.
[23:21] * Roche backs off with a hop and a flap backwards, retreating back towards the master.
[23:21] <@Abbas> The master beckons everybody to pack into the ship quickly, his side clutched as he took in a stray blast earlier.
[23:22] * Miki looks hungrily at Abbas's wound, "Hmmm, doesss that hurt, Abbasss~?"
[23:22] * Kaede runs in a rather birdlike manner back to the ship and and rushes up to Abbas, "You pay more money for this, stupid sleeping maid almost hit me." she complained to him.
[23:22] * @Yazu steps inside, eyeing Abbas' injury. "... You're hurt."
[23:22] * Tatiana rushes into the ship.  "Is everyone alright?"
[23:22] <Maxine> "A thousand pardons, ma'am!" she bows and presses another button on her suitcase which causes it to disassemble and return to the slots inside her suitcase.
[23:23] * @Abbas groans. "Yes, and it hurts worse than standing on top of a star! Now let's go before they try to challenge me on that!"
[23:23] <Tatiana> "Ah, I suppose not.  Can I be of assistance?" She queried.
[23:24] * Miki slinked further inside, it's not like she knew how to pilot this thing
[23:24] * Yusa laughs. "At least we got away. It's only a flesh wound"
[23:24] * @Abbas closes the door as soon as everybody is packed in. The ship is... well, it feels more like you are cramped inside a closet rather than a space ship.
[23:24] * Miki crawls up to the ceiling to make room for the others
[23:25] <Kaede> "Who's breasts touching my back? Move away! Kaede complained again, unable to sit still in most cases...
[23:25] * Roche pushes herself back a little in the cramped quarters.
[23:26] * Yusa sits down criss cross apple sauce style and puts her chainsaw in her lap
[23:26] * @Abbas squeezes his way through the maids, making to the cockpit. After a hurried takeoff, he clips into a wall on the way out. Lasers meet the ship, narrowly grazing them each time as his awkward piloting carries them out of the area...
[23:26] * Tatiana sits down against a wall and hugs her knees to her chest in order to clear some space
[23:27] <Roche> "Ah, I am troubling thee? My apologies, I mean thee no offense," Roche comments as she squeezes her arms over her chest, standing against a wall.
[23:30] * Tatiana starts readjusting her hair and straightening her uniform as well as she can from the position.
[23:30] * Miki swiped her tail along the ceiling, "Where to, Abbasss~?"
[23:30] <Kaede> "One more thing! Why men chase us back there? I not remember being paid for battle...well, not enough." Kaede pulled out a small abacus and starting calculating.
[23:31] <Maxine> "Ma'am, could it be because you yourself didn't pay some one?"
[23:32] * Yazu is now known as Yazuno
[23:32] * @Abbas falls back against his chair as they make it out... and alive no less! The pain in his side hurts, but he stands up and walks to the rest of the ship. "Status check. Who's hurt, other than Maxine?"
[23:32] <Miki> "I'm fine, a little hungry...."
[23:33] * Yusa yawns. "I could use some food myself"
[23:33] <@Yazuno> "You are. I will deal with that..." He steps forward with a medkit, pulling out some disinfectant and other supplies... he begins to tend to Abbas' wound... however, he does nothing to minimise the pain that said tending conjures up.
[23:33] <Maxine> "Please don't worry about me ma'am, I've stabilized rather well~"
[23:34] * Kaede continues clicking and clacking with her abacus furiously in a corner to keep herself occupied.
[23:34] <Tatiana> "Well, I'm fine, although a little stressed at all the mess..."
[23:34] * Miki seems distracted by the clacking, climbing down the wall to hang over Kaede's shoulder
[23:34] <@Abbas> "Yes... food... about that." He winces as Yazuno treats him. Should he feel thankful? Honestly he can't tell.
[23:35] <@Yazuno> "Hold still. I wouldn't want to hurt you..."
[23:35] * Yusa points at Kaede's abacus. "What's that?"
[23:36] <@Abbas> "A-...aaANYWays. I guess nobody is dying?"
[23:36] * Roche brushes forward as well as she can, trying to return to the master's side, putting a hand on his shoulder when she's near enough to.
[23:37] <Maxine> "For now, we're just floating around in space. Maybe we'll come across a McPluto's soon..."
[23:37] <Kaede> "Halberd repair, maid outfit burns due to stupid maid, snacks...eh?" Kaede turned around to spot Miki, she twitched her nose lightly, "Is abacus, use for calculating expenses vs profit."
[23:38] * Yusa tilts her head. "that...looks really old. Can't you use a calculator?
[23:38] <Yusa> "
[23:38] <Miki> "Currency is such a silly thing~ kekeke~" Miki's tongue darts about, "I can smell the greed on you."
[23:38] <Tatiana> "If there's nothing else I'm needed for, I suppose I can enter sleep mode..."
[23:39] <@Abbas> "Thank you, Roche... I guess now would just be a good time to relax? I'll tell you about why we're in this mess. I owe it, since you've all been dragged along..."
[23:39] <Kaede> "Money is everything! Is important for survival!" Kaede seemed annoyed by Miki's words but did not deny them either, "Abacus work better than calculator for small expenses. I keep in mind easier."
[23:39] * @Abbas although it sounded like he was addressing the one maid, it turns out he was talking to all the other maids.
[23:40] <@Abbas> As well as Yazuno.
[23:40] <Miki> "My people sssurvive just fine~ I'll let you handle my money if you're so good with it~ Miki crawled back up to the ceiling
[23:40] <Tatiana> "Ah, do tell, master.  It might be interesting..."
[23:41] <@Yazuno> "Indeed... tell us."
[23:41] * @Yazuno stands up to his usual imposing height, looking at Abbas calmly. His wound is now properly treated.*
[23:41] * Yusa leans back. "uhuh.."
[23:42] <Maxine> "Yes, a story to pass the time sounds like a grand idea!"
[23:42] <Kaede> "Perfectly fine with me. I keep track of finance for you, you pay me small pourcentage. Give you good deal." Kaede made a mental note not to forget.
[23:42] <Miki> "Thankssss~"
[23:42] <Roche> "Yes, my leige."
[23:42] <Kaede> "Story? Oh, fine." Kaede made a few more mental notes and put away the abacus after a moment.
[23:42] * @Abbas nods to Yazuno. "Now... you'll know we've been chased off the planet. They were not pleased with my... politics."
[23:44] <Tatiana> "Hm...  Really now?  I don't think you could have done anything really wrong, but that may just be my programming..."
[23:45] * Tatiana sighs a little bit...
[23:48] * @Abbas shakes his head at Tatiana. "No... I'm the worst. Because of me, half the planet will now have to live in poverty for the rest of their lives, and I'm sitting on a pile of money that could make me my own station. Even a mansion class cargo ship. I just have to cash it in somehow."
[23:49] * Kaede hissed, "Poverty!?"
[23:49] <@Yazuno> "... You must be proud of yourself."
[23:50] * Miki looks around, "They'll make more money, right?"
[23:50] * Miki seems to think it grows naturally, like most of the resources on her homeplanet do
[23:51] <Kaede> "No money means no food! No care! No snacks!" Kaede seemed positively livid at the idea of losing her money somehow.
[23:51] * @Abbas stares ahead, his brow wrinkled in his deep concentration. "Maybe? I'm leeching off of their salaries, and they won't know about it until a couple of days later. Which is why we need to land soon so I can get to work on the rest of the plan."
[23:51] <@Yazuno> "... I don't feel well. I'll be in the back." He steps out of the cockpit and into some small room in the rear of the ship
[23:52] * Tatiana shrugs.  "Well let's hurry and find someplace to land, then."
[23:52] * Yusa adjusts the eyepatch under her hair. "Well, that's pretty dirty of you"
[23:53] <Roche> "My liege, thy manner to myself has been well-wrought; is there a reason for this duplicity, or art they more hidden than my eyes can see?"
[23:53] <Miki> "Leeching isss for leechess Abbass~"
[23:54] <@Abbas> "I'll have you know you were all hired for your good work. Not for your opinions. At the very least you can know that you will be living comfortably if this works right."
[23:55] <@Abbas> "I should have just found more robot maids like Tatiana..." He mutters, hoping none would hear.
[23:55] <Maxine> "Master, if I may speak freely here, maybe it would be best if you just kept the money. Even if you decide to do something good with it, I have a feeling that they won't forgive you just like that."
[23:56] * Miki sweeps her tail, not too impressed with Abbas at the moment
[23:58] <Kaede> "Master is right, so long as you pay well and not try to take my money too. It not matter then." Kaede obviously had no real opinion on this.
[23:59] <Tatiana> "I suppose that's all that really matters..."  She looks wistfully away from the others.
[23:59] <@Abbas> "Well. Now you know. If you would like to quit, just say the word."
[23:59] * Yusa rubs the back of her head. "Well it's going to be really troublesome to be employed by him anyway. His type loves to attract hitmen"
[00:01] * @Abbas hides his hand in his face, or rather, the palms of his hands from everybody else.
[00:01] * Roche feels complicated reactions in her chest. She glances around at the others to gather her thoughts, glancing in the back, at the man there as well.
[00:01] * Miki considers laying eggs in Abbas's stomach
[00:03] <Kaede> "Mmm...hitmen make me worry...but like they say, no reward with no risk." Kaede thought to herself while considering Yusa's comment.
[00:03] * Miki slinks around on the ceiling, not preferring these cramped artificial quarters
[00:03] <@Abbas> Roche, Maxine, you notice a thin trail of blood streaming down his arm. His knuckles are also white...
[00:03] * @Yazuno stands silently in the back, eyes closed, taking slow, deep, even breaths. .oO( Calm... just calm down, the time will come... )
[00:04] * @Abbas stands up and turns back into the cockpit. "Talk freely amongst yourselves. I will get us some food."
[00:04] * Maxine follows behind Yazuno, something seemed wrong...Like the blood dripping down his arm. She follows him into the back room. "Either you're somehow blossoming into a young lady, or you have a problem with the master's actions."
[00:05] <Roche> "...Sir Yazuno, would that wound be from the battle just fought? Thy injury should be tended to properly!"
[00:06] * Miki looks out the window, crawling about. "Wherever we're going I hope to get there sssooon..."
[00:06] * @Yazuno takes one more deep breath, letting it out slowly. He opens his eyes, completely calm and composed when he turns to Roche, looking at his hands. "Ah. Yes. I must have caught my hands on an enemies armor..."
[00:06] <Tatiana> "Yes...  That would be nice, wouldn't it Miki..."
[00:07] * Kaede takes a peak out the window as well, "Wonder where master get all these crazy people anyways?" Kaede thought, looking around at the others.
[00:08] <@Yazuno> "It is nothing. Please don't concern yourself."
[00:09] * Tatiana starts at Kaede's statement!  "C-crazy?  My...  Th-that was quite rude!"
[00:09] * Yusa pulls out a rag and cleans her chainsaw. 'I'll probably need to use this alot...' Yusa thinks with a mild hint of pleasure
[00:09] * Miki crawls down to Tatiana, looking at Kaede, "I'm certainly not crazy..."
[00:09] <Roche> "Dost thou need proper care? Thou hath tended my liege well, but thy hand is consumed," Roche said as she folded her arms against her chest and tried to move back to him.
[00:10] <Maxine> "And why is it you didn't speak up during the status check?"
[00:11] * Kaede gets startle by the reaction, "How you read mind?! You craziest among the crazies!" Kaede seemed adamant as she pointed at Tatiana.
[00:11] <@Yazuno> "If it would make you feel better to see to my hands, feel free to do so.
[00:12] <Tatiana> "You...  Said it out loud..."  Looks very confused.
[00:12] <Miki> "Craaazyyy~" Miki teased
[00:12] * @Yazuno looks to Maxine, shrugging. "As I said, it's nothing."
[00:13] <Kaede> "Eh? Crazy lady should stop making stuff up. Is not right." Kaede blinked as if Tatiana had said something ridiculous.
[00:13] <Roche> "It would; thy hands are among my own to defend my liege, thus I would not neglect thy injury from such an effort!"
[00:13] <Maxine> "...As you were then." she turns and leaves Roche to tend to his hand.
[00:14] <Tatiana> "A-alright...  If you say so..."  She looks crestfallen at the reaction, pondering if she really HAD gone crazy somehow...
[00:14] * Yusa tilts her head. "You seem like the craziest out of all of us. Waving around a really outdated calculation method and what not" Yusa says while fiddling with her chainsaw
[00:15] <Kaede> "Abacus work very well, why replace something not broke? That sound crazier."
[00:15] * @Yazuno nods to Roche and steps forward, holding his hands out for her obligingly
[00:17] * Roche produces a tube of liquid bandage and a roll of physical ones, and takes his hands in hers to properly tend to them.
[00:17] <Yusa> "A calculator works better"
[00:19] <Roche> ". . . An enemy's armor should not have such an effect as these cuts... Is there a hidden motive behind these...?" Roche almost whispered 'such as the liege's', but didn't think she had said it outloud...
[00:20] <Kaede> "Brain is best computer. Using calculator too much makes brain go soft." She turned her head in a disgusted kind of fashion as if Yusa insulted or called her dumb.
[00:20] <@Yazuno> "... It was a studded piece of metal. I jammed my hand on it improperly."
[00:21] <Miki> "I think Kaede hass a point~ you people rely ssso heavily on machiness~"
[00:22] * Yusa gives Kaede a strange look. "....are you calling me stupid?" she straightens her eyepatch
[00:22] * Tatiana clears her throat.  "A-and just how am I supposed to take that?"  She looks to Miki, plainly hurt.
[00:22] * Kaede seems to approve of Miki's opinion, "Machines are helpful, but only tools!"
[00:23] * Maxine wanders back in. "There's nothin' wrong with relying on machines, as long as you don't go soft."
[00:24] <Kaede> "Crazy sleeping girl almost blew me up with machine. Your brain soft too." Kaede countered.
[00:24] <Roche> ". . . Sir Yazuno, thy explaination neglects details. They match properly with hands, and are shallow," Roche said, eyeing him suspciously.
[00:24] * Miki perks up looking behind her, "Goodnesss, forgive me Tatiana. I have trouble regarding you as a machine...People use machines asss toolss, but you're more than that aren't you?"
[00:25] * Yusa stands up with her chainsaw in hand. "Sorry I couldn't hear that..."
[00:25] <Tatiana> "Hmm...  Maybe..."  She sighs.
[00:26] * @Abbas pounded the wall heavily. "Just a bit more... Then I can put this behind me. Come on... come on, move faster!"
[00:26] <Miki> Miki's tail swishes about, "You are an exemplary machine if you can be called one. The only one I would rely on~" Miki nodded, trying to apologize
[00:27] * Tatiana blushes.  "Th-thank you very much, Miki..."
[00:28] * @Yazuno looks to Roche impassively, offering no further explanation or excuse
[00:28] * Miki smiled, and crawled up the wall to hang over Tatiana, "You're welcome~"
[00:28] * @Yazuno does, she may notice, have dried blood under his fingernails too, whereas his hands are otherwise clean of any blood but his own.
[00:28] <Maxine> "My brain is not too soft, maybe you shouldn't have been so close to it!"
[00:30] <Kaede> "That no explain why you no give warning to teammate. You stupid is all." Kaede was getting jittery from having to stay inside of this ship for so long and playing with her hair.
[00:32] * @Abbas puts the ship on autopilot and walks back into the main area where the maids were. He noted all the noise and went after the biggest suspect. "Kaede. Is there something wrong?"
[00:32] * Roche notices. In response she wets a corner of a bandage to gently wipe away any gathered blood on his hands before spraying on the liquid bandage and covering the layer with a clean fabric one. Only after she tends to them properly does she point him towards a place to wash his hands.
[00:33] <@Yazuno> "Thank you." He moves over to wash his hands
[00:33] <Miki> "Abbasss~ did you find food?" she whined
[00:34] <Roche> "And thee as well, for thy assistance earlier." Roche retreated from the room to join the rest.
[00:34] <@Abbas> "Oh, Miki... Yes, I did find food. It is on a neighboring station, and we will be landing there."
[00:35] <Maxine> "I shouldn't have to warn you before I attack an enemy, it's common sense!"
[00:35] <Miki> "Very well~" Miki pouted
[00:36] <Kaede> "Something wrong? Yes, this stupid person almost hit me back in fight! And now does not accept fact that she stupid!" Kaede pointed and accusing hand to Maxime for Abbas.
[00:36] <@Abbas> "It is... mostly commercial. I don't think our pursuers will expect us to head in this direction."
[00:36] * Yusa sighs. "Thank god I'm starving"
[00:36] <Tatiana> "We'll be getting a chance to clean up soon as well, yes?"  She looks pleadingly at Abbas.
[00:37] <Roche> "My liege, dost thy wound still hurt?" Roche folded her arms once again as she stepped closer to him.
[00:37] <@Abbas> "Kaede... We were all confused in that fight. I can understand if there was a bout of friendly fire. Especially just a moment before that she had been too weak to walk."
[00:38] <Kaede> "Hmph, then is fine. I get higher pay if happen again though! I forgive sleeping girl."
[00:40] * @Abbas nods to Tatiana. "For now just rest... We'll be there soon. Well, Roche, thanks to Yazuno it... hurts less? I'll be fine. Even if you can help it further, I think we should wait until we're... Oh." He heads back to the cockpit after seeing they were now preparing to dock into the station. Strangely, nobody addresses them over radio as they land...
[00:41] <Maxine> "F-Forgive?! Ah, forget it."
[00:42] * Miki unhinges her jaw and hangs in front of Tatiana's face playfully, her tongue lolling about, "Sssssooo hungry~"
[00:43] * Tatiana glances up at Miki nervously.  "I-I really don't have that many organic components..!  A-and anyways...  Is it not standard docking procedure to hail ships that are landing?"
[00:44] <Kaede> "Maybe is abandonned?"
[00:44] <@Abbas> You all feel the ship rock as Abbas lands roughly onto the ground. He takes his shaky hands off the wheel, then makes his way back once again. "Let's go take care of business."
[00:44] * Kaede nods happily, so long as she didn't have to remain confined in this space anything would be better!
[00:45] * Miki falls into Tatiana's lap as the ship rocks, "Gyahh~!" snapping her jaw back in place she looks about, "Are we here?"
[00:45] <Miki> there*
[00:45] * Yusa yawns. "You're a bad pilot, abbas..."
[00:45] * Maxine searches her suitcase and closes it back up with a sigh. "It seems that my rations fell out when I was assembling my weapon, but we've landed so I suppose you can wait a bit."
[00:45] * Tatiana blushes and tries to help Miki up.  "I believe so..."
[00:46] <@Abbas> "W-well, I'm a politician first! At least I didn't crash us into a wall."
[00:46] * Miki stands up with Tatiana's help, "Well let's get some food~ I'm ssstarving~"
[00:47] * @Yazuno steps out from behind Abbas, somehow. "... That was a shitty landing.
[00:47] <Kaede> "I have chocolate bar." Kaede took out her last remaining snack.
[00:47] <Miki> "Chocolate...?" her tongue darted about taking in the scent
[00:48] <Roche> "Yes, my liege." Roche stepped to the fore of the ship, intending to be the first to look around.
[00:48] * @Abbas almost jumps, "who asked? Look, we're safe! We don't have any lasers on our asses, nobody is holding our ship in stasis! There's nothing to worry about.
[00:48] <Tatiana> "Right..."  She stands up and heads for the door, one of her guns at the ready just in case...
[00:48] <@Abbas> ...You should be happy my piloting is your biggest concerned!"
[00:48] <Miki> "Smellsss sswweet~" acid drool dripped from Miki's tongue
[00:48] <Yusa> "Pfft. Politician, more like Con-artist" Yusa looks at Kaede's chocolate bar. "Can I have a piece?"
[00:49] <@Yazuno> "Mmmhm."
[00:49] * Kaede pulled the bar away from both Miki and Yusa, "It cost 10 credits." Kaede said, which had to be over 5 times it's regular price.
[00:50] <Yusa> "what? that's ridiculous"
[00:51] * Maxine makes a grab for the chocolate. "That's an insane price! No one would be stupid enough to pay it."
[00:51] * Miki reached into her apron, "Isss this enough?" pulled out a marked bill for 20 credits
[00:52] * @Abbas grumbles as he walks ahead of the maids, stepping down into the station.
[00:52] * Kaede sneezes right at that instant, moving out of the way. "Eh, what was that sleeping girl?" she asked momentarily before Miki pulled out a bill, "Ah! Perfect!" she took the bill and handed the chocolate bar back and gave Miki her change.
[00:52] <@Yazuno> "Hmm. Ten credits for a chocolate bar... remind me to avoid wherever YOU shop."
[00:52] <Kaede> "Here you are, 10 credits change. Nice doing business with you." Kaede showed her best business smile.
[00:52] * Tatiana follows after Abbas, muttering "Check those corners...  Check those corners..."
[00:53] * Yusa pouts. "What a greedy bitch..." she mutters
[00:53] <Maxine> "Hmph, might wanna check your change. This little goblin is liable to short change you.
[00:53] <Kaede> "Supply and demand! You come unprepared, prepare to pay with money!" Kaede crossed her arms happily, she made a tidy profit on that. One snack for five snacks was a nice profit~
[00:53] * Miki licked about the candy bar, taking her change, "It'sss good~"
[00:54] * Roche stands aside Abbas, looking all around, since the others had expressed concern.
[00:54] * @Abbas looks around... noticing the lights were dimmed. He could swear half of them were broken.
[00:54] * Kaede runs off after her little con to find Abbas and Roche.
[00:54] * Miki followed over to Tatiana, "Kaede sssold me fine chocolate, it'sss deliciousss~" Miki continued to lap at it with her long tongue
[00:54] * Yusa follows Kaede
[00:55] * Maxine sighs and follows behind everyone.
[00:55] * @Abbas turns to the maids. "This place is a dump."
[00:56] * @Abbas walks off, seemingly oblivious to the suspicious situation...
[00:56] <Maxine> "I've seen wo...No, I can't say I have."
[00:56] * Kaede looks around for something that might go for a nice price...
[00:56] * Tatiana glances at Miki.  "That's good for you then."  She smiles cheerily then srses and returns to watching for anything dangerous.
[00:56] * Miki chomps on her chocolate with a smile, skittering up to the ceiling and follows the others
[00:58] <@Abbas> "Miki... where did you get that chocolate?"
[00:59] * @Abbas finally seemed to notice, as a drop of it made its way onto his suit from the ceiling.
[00:59] * Kaede can't find anything of any real value from a glance..."Hmm...no good..." Kaede mutters picking up something that looks like a straw doll.
[00:59] * Miki looks down from the ceiling, "Kaede gave it to me for only 10 credits!"
[00:59] * Miki skitters down to the floor to forage for some food, even some moldy bread or bad meat would suit her~
[00:59] * Maxine sighs. "She ripped you off."
[01:00] <@Yazuno> "We would seem to be in a bit of a bind."
[01:00] <Kaede> "Yes, I find nothing for resell." she replied to Yazuno, tossing the doll aside.
[01:00] * Miki slithers about, looking in garbage cans and breaking her way into locked cases when need be for food. "Ripped me off? It was good chocolate!"
[01:01] <@Yazuno> "... Reselling something is the least of our worries. You sound like Abbas, saying things like that."
[01:02] <Kaede> "Recycling is very important."
[01:02] <Maxine> "Hey look, it's a supply crate!" she points not to ofar in the distance.
[01:02] <@Yazuno> "As is surviving."
[01:02] <@Abbas> "Ten credits... That's easily ten times the amount a person would normally pay for."
[01:02] * Yusa looks around absentmindedly while walking along she notices Maxine point at a crate. "Maybe some food?"
[01:03] <Maxine> "Even if it isn't, we're bound to find something useful!" she runs over to it~
[01:03] * Kaede runs off while ignoring Yazuno's statement to where Maxine pointed, "Oooh! Food might still be good to eat."
[01:03] * Miki gathers up the food she found in her apron, "Isss that bad, Abbasss?"
[01:04] * Yusa runs with Maxine noticing Kaede run for it as well. "We should get to it before Kaede does! she might sell it or something"
[01:04] * @Yazuno moves over to the crate with the others, standing back to keep an eye on things.
[01:04] * Tatiana tries to figure out where there might be some sort of communications systems, and finds a...  Damaged walkie talkie with no batteries.
[01:04] * Roche glances around, confirming the crate's location as she listens around. 'Chocolate?' she wonders.
[01:04] * Tatiana frowns.
[01:05] * Kaede smelling a deal runs like a demon towards the crate her eyes glinting...either that or the prospect of snacks.
[01:05] * Miki finishes her chocolate and takes to drinking some milk, whether it's spoiled or not is none of her concern.
[01:05] <@Abbas> "Y-No..." He sighed in defeat, he just couldn't find it in himself to put down Miki.
[01:05] * Miki slinks around the master, "I don't buy much anyway~ buying fancy food is nice sometimes though~"
[01:06] <@Yazuno> "... I suppose I'll open it then?"
[01:07] <Yusa> "I got this Yazuno!" Yusa takes her chainsaw and opens the crate with it
[01:07] <Maxine> "That's normally how you get things out of a supply crate, yes.
[01:07] <@Abbas> "Haha... Only you could think a bar of chocolate was fancy, Miki."
[01:07] * Kaede makes it to the crate after a small run. "I here! Open crate quickly to see what in it!" Kaede hopped around in her spot, excited by whatever treasure might be inside.
[01:08] * Tatiana walks back to the others, holding up the walkie talkie.  "If there wasn't enough evidence something's wrong here, they left behind a personal communicator...  Maybe we should hurry up.."
[01:08] <@Abbas> The crate's material gives way under the mighty chainsaw! As Yusa finally saws it open, the side falls down revealing a crate full of freeze-dried food! However, what was a supply crate doing here so close to the port and unattended to?
[01:09] <Roche> "Tatiana, thou art holding something?"
[01:09] * Miki smiles, her tail swishing about, "I would like to eat more fancy food with the masster then~ you seem to know lots~"
[01:09] <@Yazuno> "Interesting place for a crate to begin with... but at least now we have food."
[01:10] * Tatiana hands Roche the walkie talkie.  "Busted up and no working power source..."
[01:10] * Yusa grins. "Well, that was entertaining" she puts away her chainsaw and picks up one of the packets
[01:10] <Kaede> "Is frozen food...maybe we put in ship's freezer?" Kaede was a bit dissapointed.
[01:11] <@Yazuno> "I don't believe it actually needs to be kept cold."
[01:11] <@Abbas> "Now we just need water. Good work, everybody." He seems distracted, looking at Tatiana's find worriedly.
[01:13] <Kaede> "...they not have vending machine here? What kind of station is this?" Kaede took another glance around, not really expecting to find anything different than her last search.
[01:13] * Roche turns it over and about. She wasn't adept with technology but it was worrying indeed. "Mayhaps it might be an abandonned child's busyment?"
[01:15] <@Abbas> "...I'm worried. We're already stealing food. Quickly, everybody, load this onto the ship before anybody sees us.
[01:15] <@Yazuno> "Master, why don't you just find whoever it belongs to and buy it?"
[01:15] * Miki carries the food she found in her arms, slinking back to the ship while munching on some moldy bread.
[01:15] * Tatiana doesn't look all that convinced.  "Mayhaps..."
[01:16] <@Abbas> "Yazuno, I still don't have the money yet... as of now we are no better than the homeless."
[01:16] * Yusa chuckles at Abbas' comment. "Well you had no problem stealing money. Why are you so worried?"
[01:16] <Kaede> "I frail maiden. No can carry such burden." Kaede raised her hands up as if to emphasize it.
[01:16] <@Yazuno> "Well then, I trust when you -have- the money, you will make proper reparations?" He stares intently at Abbas, VERY interested in hearing the answer
[01:16] * Tatiana (Nonan@80F157E5.C6DB832A.D8795800.IP) Quit (Connection reset by peer)
[01:17] * Roche steps over to the crate, lifting it with a minor difficulty.
[01:17] <@Abbas> "...I will pay the owner for a second shipment as well as the shipping costs. Now what does it matter to you?" He turns away from Yazuno and walks toward Tatiana and Roche.
[01:18] * Yusa helps Roche carry the crate to the ship
[01:18] <@Yazuno> "It matters." He falls into step behind Abbas.
[01:18] <Maxine> "Oh, you can't? I guess you also shouldn't get a share~"
[01:18] <Kaede> "Ooohhh....fine!" Kaede took a few boxes and tried to help out, running for the ship.
[01:18] * Ampersand (Nonan@80F157E5.C6DB832A.D8795800.IP) has joined #MaidRP
[01:19] * Miki clambers onto the ceiling, savoring some bleu cheese, "Deliciousss~"
[01:19] * Ampersand is now known as Tatiana
[01:19] <Roche> "Ah, thou have my gratitude, Yusa!"
[01:20] <Yusa> "No problem!"
[01:21] * Tatiana follows them back to the ship.  "Shall I go see if I can't find some water?"
[01:21] <@Abbas> "Not to you. You don't even know the owners of this crate, Yazuno!"
[01:21] * @Abbas turns back to follow Tatiana. "I will help you."
[01:22] * Tatiana nods.  "Very well, master."
[01:22] * @Yazuno grabs Abbas and turns him around, looking him squarely in the eye. "Does that make stealing okay? If you don't know the person you are stealing from?"
[01:22] * Kaede runs back to where they were before. "D-done." she gasped lightly looking around, where did they go?
[01:23] * Miki unhinges her jaw and gulps down a full salami, wondering when the others would get back to the ship
[01:23] * Maxine suddenly appears behind Kaede carrying her own share. "...I've got my eye on you."
[01:24] <Kaede> "That good, maybe you become better shot then." Kaede grabbed some more food and walked back to the ship with it as well.
[01:24] * @Abbas winces, and tries to meet his gaze but flicks his eyes away nervously. "...No, it does not. I am meeting a goal, however. Those under my employ are in need of food, and I do not know if we will need these supplies for the next two days, or even months."
[01:24] * Yusa carries the crate into the ship with Roche and sets it down. "aw, that's better"
[01:25] * Tatiana turns to Yazuno.  "Ah...  Th-there exists the possibility that...  This station's inhabitants are...  No longer about to miss their belongings..."
[01:26] * @Yazuno 's expression softens. Perhaps this guy DOES feel some remorse... "... I understand. Survival comes first. I just want to make sure you remember to make things right later." He dips into a proper bow, bowing at the waist, arm held level in front of his stomach. "Please forgive me for my improper behavior, Master Abbas."
[01:26] <Miki> "There you all are~" Miki smiles, lapping into a jar of peanut butter.
[01:27] <Roche> "It's so. Well met, Miki."
[01:27] * @Abbas looks at Yazuno, confused and concerned. He then wipes off his suit and nods before turning back to Tatiana. "I'd like not to think of that. We will only lose sight of everything I have worked for if this is true."
[01:28] <Miki> "Helllooo~" her tongue thoroughly licks clean the jar, "That hit the spot~"
[01:29] * Maxine (Shimi@sux-49528D1C.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) Quit (Client exited)
[01:29] * Tatiana bows.  "Very well, sir."  She then turns to look for any possible locations of water in the ship.
[01:29] * Maxine (Shimi@sux-49528D1C.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) has joined #MaidRP
[01:30] * @Yazuno looks to Titania seeming to have just noticed her there, so intent was he on his conversation with Abbas. "Indeed... well, if what you said earlier is true, then the point is moot. Would you like me to assist you?
[01:31] * Yusa leans against the wall and eats some jelly beans she took from the crate
[01:31] <Miki> "Mmmm~ tasty drink~" Miki had crawled down from the ceiling and was drinking from a bottle labeled 'apple vinegar'
[01:31] * Tatiana turns to Yazuno again.  "Ah, that would be much appreciated.  My sensor suites aren't the most advanced, after all."
[01:32] <@Yazuno> "Very well. If you will excuse me, Master." He walks over to join Tatiana
[01:32] <Maxine> "Better shot?! That was a perfect hit, you just stay out of my way next time." she follows her on to the ship
[01:32] <@Abbas> "Yes." He feels nervous now, finally noticing the eerily quiet surroundings. It would be best to be with the most capable, so... Abbas walks after Yazuno.
[01:33] * Roche reaches in as well, looking for something more immediately edible to offer the others upon their return, and take a bite of herself.
[01:33] * Kaede puts the food away with the rest and sits down "Now what?" she wondered out loud, having no clue what to do at this point.
[01:34] <Miki> Miki's tail swishes about expectantly as she watches the others, wondering where they were heading
[01:35] <Roche> "My liege hath yet to return. It is worrying." She stood near the entranceway, looking around.
[01:36] <Miki> "He'll be back soon~ Master's a scaredy snake~" Miki grinned
[01:37] <@Yazuno> "Hmm..." He doesn't seem to have any idea where that water might be found...
[01:38] <@Abbas> Tatiana, Yazuno... You notice a vending machine was indeed on the station. However, the broken lights overhead do not allow you enough vision to see the contents of the machine...
[01:39] * Yusa sighs. "He seems like the scardy type~"
[01:39] * Tatiana looks at the vending machine.  "Should we bother feeding credits into it?"
[01:40] <@Abbas> "Yes. I'm not losing my arm to that thing!"
[01:40] <Miki> "Ssscared of his own tail~" Miki giggles
[01:40] <@Yazuno> "... Allow me."
[01:40] <@Yazuno> "Please stand back."
[01:41] <@Abbas> "A-ahh, yes..."
[01:41] * Tatiana backs away after a silent nod.
[01:41] * @Abbas steps a bit behind Tatiana.
[01:42] * Kaede only sits still for around 2 minutes before she pulls out her abacus again and starts playing around with it. "Messy business, abandonned station...wonder how master is doing..." she mutters out loud, making a few basic calculations to keep herself distracted.
[01:43] * @Yazuno steps forward, looking over the machine for a few moments in silence... then... WHAM. He lashes out, kicking the machine squarely where one would insert credits, smashing the mechanism... but the light comes on, showing that it's ready to dispense whatever selection one makes.
[01:43] <Maxine> "....Psst, what are you doing now?" she whispers, now uncomfortably close to Kaede's face.
[01:43] <@Yazuno> "There. It will now dispense freely."
[01:43] * Miki stretches out on the floor, arching her back, "What do they need water for? I don't understand..."
[01:43] <Tatiana> "Ah.  Alright then..."  She steps up and bends down to get a closer look at the buttons...
[01:44] * @Abbas seemed to be trying to calm down, startled by the sudden kick. "...Oh! Good work, Yazuno. Does it hold any water?"
[01:44] * Kaede jumps at Maxine's proximity and shuffles a bit away, "Hmph, practice makes perfect, I play with abacus and keep distracted. Better than pulling out hair and worry." Kaede explained to Maxine, keeping an eye on her now.
[01:44] <@Abbas> Tatiana: You notice... it's completely average. Water, soft drinks, coffee...
[01:45] * Miki slinks about on the floor, humming to herself
[01:45] * Tatiana presses the button for water...
[01:46] * @Abbas gasps!
[01:46] <Maxine> "Yeah, what are you calculating? How much you plan to steal? I bet you want a cut of the Master's wealth, don't you? You're planning how you're going to blackmail him!"
[01:46] * Yusa stretches out on the floor. "What's taking them so looong~"
[01:46] <@Abbas> A bottle of water slides down the chute, then into the dispensing area.
[01:46] <@Yazuno> "It appears so, Master."
[01:47] <@Abbas> However, when you look down...
[01:47] * @Yazuno straightens his suit a little. A neat little trick he learned as a boy...
[01:47] * Miki slithers over to Yusa, "Good quessstion~"
[01:47] <Miki> "Are you not hungry?"
[01:47] <Tatiana> "Hmm?"  She reaches out for the water bottle curiosly...
[01:47] * Yusa sits up and looks at Miki. "I lost my appetite"
[01:48] <Miki> "Lossst your appetite? How ssstrange~" Miki contemplated, still a little close to Yusa
[01:49] <@Abbas> Tatiana: You see a completely average bottle of water.
[01:49] <Yusa> "How is that strange?"
[01:49] <Miki> "I'm alllwaysss hungry~" Miki grinned, her tongue lashing about near Yusa's face.
[01:50] <@Abbas> Roche, Kaede, maybe it's something about the lights? You feel like something is watching you...
[01:50] * Tatiana grabs the bottle of water and hands it to Abbas.  "Looks fine, you want me to get something besides plain water?  There's soft drinks, coffee, and some kind of juice mix..."
[01:51] <@Abbas> "Oh, yes. Please get as much as you can carry..." He opens the bottle absentmindedly and takes a couple swigs of the water.
[01:51] * Yusa backs up a little and smiles. "Well, that's pretty strange too"
[01:51] * Tatiana begins the rather tedious task of gathering bottles of water, soft drinks, coffee, and juice one at a time from a vending machine...  She sighs.
[01:52] * Kaede feels a chill run through her spine, "Did you all feel that?" Kaede asked.
[01:52] * Roche looks back over her shoulder to the other four and shifts from side to side, uneasy. She takes a step back towards them, still watching the master, worried.
[01:52] <@Abbas> Yazuno: The water looks normal, the bottle is even misted over because of how chilly the vending machine keeps the drinks.
[01:53] <@Yazuno> "... Hm." He shrugs.
[01:53] * Miki backs off, "I supposse sso~"
[01:53] <Maxine> "Nope, nothing at a-Don't try and change the subject!"
[01:54] <Roche> "Kaede, thou feel something?"
[01:54] <Kaede> "Huh? What about sleeping girl?" Kaede gave Maxine a look that said 'Stop bothering me'.
[01:54] <@Yazuno> "Here, let me help." He assists Tatiana!
[01:55] <@Abbas> "Mm... This is a great relief. Thank you, Tatiana, Yazuno."
[01:55] <Kaede> "Do not know booby girl, just felt...strange."
[01:55] * Tatiana finishes emptying the machine of it's water and a good deal of coffee and juice, plus a small amount of soft drinks since too many would be bad for their health.
[01:55] <Roche> "!"
[01:56] <@Abbas> Roche: Behind Kaede, you just barely catch sight of something slightly shift on the ceiling...
[01:56] <Tatiana> "Ah, thank you sir Yazuno."  She gathers a good deal up in her apron and starts carrying them back to the ship.
[01:56] * Roche jumps and folds one arm over her chest with--ah?
[01:56] * Kaede continues playing with her abacus lightly, looking a bit nervous now.
[01:57] <Roche> "Fellows, come to alert!"
[01:57] * Yusa laughs. "i guess it's normal for you, miki"
[01:57] <Roche> "F-fellows, alert!"
[01:57] <Maxine> "What now?"
[01:57] <Kaede> "Hmm?" Kaede looked up at Roche, tilting her head lightly.
[01:57] * Miki smiles and slithers about on the floor, "Mmmhmm~ I promise not to eat everyone's food~ I could always eat my own eggs if I had to~"
[01:58] * @Abbas follows behind the maid, placing the empty bottle of water into a recycling chute as he walks by.
[01:58] <Roche> "Thy high aft was bear to movement. It is...unsettling."
[01:58] * @Yazuno gathers up a large armfull of the bottles, following.
[01:59] <Yusa> "what is it, roche?"
[01:59] * Roche stepped closer to the others with her back against the wall and her hands at her left hip.
[01:59] <Kaede> "High aft? Booby lady need to speak clearly. Do not understand."
[02:00] <Miki> "I am confused as well..."
[02:00] <Roche> "Thy high aft, where one cannot see, behind your above," Roche tried to explain, moving an arm to point at the ceiling.
[02:01] * Miki crawled up to the ceiling, "Like thisss?"
[02:01] * Yusa looks where roche is pointing and squints with her one eye."hmm?"
[02:02] * Kaede panicks and crawls away when she finally understood what Roche said, grabbing onto one of her legs. "Where? Where is...what did booby lady see?"
[02:03] * Tatiana arrives at the ship docking ramp.  "We got water, and some other stuff!"  She calls out cheerfully.
[02:04] * FurbyATWork is now known as AngryFurby
[02:04] <Roche> "B-booby? I plead thee to not to use such words..."
[02:05] <Roche> "I...saw naught but a movement. It was of that hight, and ...unsettling." Roche pointed upwards again.
[02:05] <@Abbas> "Yes. It should go well with the food. Now we just need somewhere to access my account..."
[02:06] <Miki> "Hmmm....~" Miki crawled out of the ship and headed for the top.
[02:06] <Maxine> "Something about...Something moving around on the ceiling? Probably just a big bug or something, want me to squash it for you two sissies?"
[02:06] * Kaede looks over to where Roche pointed, "Me not see anything. Maybe we take closer look?" Kaede certainly didn't want to go alone.
[02:07] * Yusa leans against the wall and goes to sleep as she has poor eyesight in her working eye anyway
[02:07] <Roche> "Ah, joyous, Tatiana! Is my liege--ah, liege, thou art unharmed. W-well met."
[02:07] * Yusa is now known as lemon|sleep
[02:08] * Miki skitters about on top of the ship, looking for something suspicious...
[02:08] <Tatiana> "What's all that about a...  Bug, was it?"  She looks concerned, but moves to get inside of the ship and store the bottles regardless.
[02:08] <@Yazuno> "A bug." He seems somewhat unimpressed.
[02:09] <@Abbas> Miki: Something about the air feels unsettling. You notice there is a weird shimmering of light, but every time you try to get near it it swiftly gets away...
[02:10] * lemon|sleep (WinNT@sux-7D051AFD.ec.res.rr.com) Quit (Ping timeout)
[02:11] <Roche> "Miki, I devise to assist thee! I plead ye be not lonesome!" Roche unhitched Kaede from her leg with a "Pardon, Kaede," and her black wings burst out, hopping once or twice to jump into the air, landing near Miki.
[02:11] * @Abbas nods to Roche. "This station /is/ unsettling though, I'll give it that. Somebody go find a communications console or something so we can get out fast."
[02:11] * Kaede gets back up and looks around after Abbas suggested they find a communication console.
[02:12] <@Yazuno> "At once, Master."
[02:12] <Miki> "Hmmm~" Miki looked beside her, "If you wisssh~ be quiet now~ Miki stalked along the roof, following the light
[02:13] * Tatiana starts setting down the bottles, arranging them upright in the store space, each kind alloted a specific area.
[02:13] <@Abbas> Kaede: You find a strange smear of red on the wall...
[02:14] <@Abbas> Miki and Roche: There is a gooey substance trailing into the ship's doorway!
[02:14] * Kaede spots something red on a wall and walks up to it to take a look, "Hey master, I find something here."
[02:14] * Miki licked at something...Gooey, "Ssstrange~" Miki followed the trail!
[02:15] <@Abbas> "Hm?" Abbas walks over curiously, then wretches as he approaches. "K-Kaede, what is that?"
[02:15] * Maxine tails Kaede. "I'll catch her in the act!"
[02:16] * Roche steps after Miki cautiously, wings folded tightly but not disappeared, hands on her hips
[02:16] * Kaede shrugs, "Is red, paint maybe?" Kaede had no clue.
[02:16] <Roche> [-s, crossed.]
[02:16] <@Abbas> Miki+Roche: The trail leads to... where Yusa was last seen.
[02:16] <@Abbas> It has stopped there.
[02:16] <Maxine> "...Maybe jam?"
[02:16] * Tatiana arranges the bottles Yazuno brought as well.
[02:16] * Miki sniffs, "W-Where is..."
[02:17] <Roche> "H...huh?"
[02:17] * Miki looks around dartingly, "Sssomething is wrong! Her scent was here!"
[02:17] * @Abbas shrugs. "...I guess it does look like paint. Why did you want me to look at this?"
[02:18] <Kaede> "Is strange place for paint." Kaede shrugged her shoulders again, why did she think it would be of interest?
[02:20] <@Abbas> Maxine: Upon closer inspection, you notice it /is/ paint! Oh, but that was on the wall earlier. Now, the /red/ stuff was blood. Most certainly. Your past experience tells you so.
[02:20] * Miki (garizard@9140E6CF.8F04BA5E.51B045F.IP) Quit (Ping timeout)
[02:20] <Maxine> "This is, most certainly, blood."
[02:21] <@Abbas> "O-Oh God..."
[02:21] * AngryFurby (admin@sux-6CA1ADCB.lsanca.dsl-w.verizon.net) has left #MaidRP
[02:22] <Kaede> "Ah...makes more sense than paint." Kaede nodded for a moment before flinching, "B-blood!? Blood of who?"
[02:22] * Tatiana walks up behind Miki and Roche.  "Eh?  I-is something the matter?"
[02:22] <Maxine> "That I can't tell you, but it has to belong to some one aboard this ship."
[02:23] <Roche> "Tatiana. LIEGE! where hath Yusa departed to?"
[02:23] <@Abbas> "Oh, r-right. The other ships on here..."
[02:24] * @Abbas turns to look over his shoulder. "Roche? What was that about Yusa?"
[02:24] * Tatiana starts.  "O-oh dear...  I do hope she's alright!"
[02:24] <@Yazuno> "... that can't be good. We must find her immediately."
[02:25] <Roche> "The girl is not where she was and her location hath be present to a concerning path of a sticksome trail!"
[02:26] <Maxine> "A missing person and smeared blood on the wall, I think it's safe to assume she's either dead, or badly injured."
[02:27] <@Abbas> "W-we have to find her then!"
[02:27] <@Yazuno> "If we follow the blood, we will locate her eventually..."
[02:27] <Kaede> "Maybe she just taken away and hurt? We no find any bodies here." Kaede pointed out.
[02:28] <@Abbas> "By who? This station's been empty so far!"
[02:28] <Maxine> "One of the girls mentioned seeing something..."
[02:28] * Tatiana frets visibly.  "Th-this is very worrisome..."
[02:30] <@Abbas> "Yes... E-everybody, let's go f-find her..."
[02:30] * Roche flares her wings, still visible, out fully and back in quickly.
[02:30] <Maxine> "Right away, sir!"
[02:31] <Kaede> "O...Okay..." Kaede pulls out the two pieces of her halberd from the cloth on her back and snapped them together.
[02:31] <@Yazuno> "Right away."
[02:31] <@Abbas> "Umm... Kaede, please lead..."
[02:31] * Maxine reassembles her spear from her suitcase and carries it along with her.
[02:31] <Kaede> "M-me? Why me!?" Kaede complained.
[02:31] * Tatiana nods.  "Right!"  She activates her weapon systems again, following after the others.
[02:32] * Miki (garizard@8B12D52F.8F04BA5E.51B045F.IP) has joined #MaidRP
[02:32] * @Yazuno heads off ahead of the others!
[02:33] * Roche steps with Tatiana and Miki to the others, jumping at Yazuno's dash.
[02:34] <@Abbas> "I-I don't know!"
[02:34] <@Abbas> Yazuno: With your expert eyes you scan the station and find... Yusa.
[02:35] * Kaede sighs lightly and takes charge, "F-fine...but you pay extra!" she looked around while clinging her halberd as she walked forward.
[02:35] <@Abbas> You recognize the uniform as Yusa's, anyway.
[02:35] <@Yazuno> "..." He walks over to the uniform, kneeling down and inspecting it a little closer. "I found a uniform. I believe it was hers."
[02:36] * Miki sniffed out the path, following it closely
[02:36] <@Abbas> The uniform was surprisingly far away from the port, you note. It would have taken a much longer time than the amount of time she was missing for her to have ended up there.
[02:37] <Miki> "I don't undersstand.." she sighed
[02:37] * Tatiana blanches...  "J-just the uniform..."
[02:37] <Kaede> "...oh well, she dead probably. Let's go!" Kaede was trembling lightly.
[02:37] * @Yazuno points all of this out to the others. "Something else must have grabbed and carried her here... or else she was gone much longer than we were aware of." He inspects the uniform for damage or signs of struggle.
[02:38] <Miki> "I'm not leaving Yusssa~!" she hissed
[02:38] <Maxine> "No, we have to find the killer, it's the least we could do."
[02:38] * Miki sniffed about in the air
[02:39] <@Yazuno> "The killer may be an alien life form that is beyond our ability." he glances at Abbas for a moment. He can't help but hold the master at least partially responsible...
[02:39] <Tatiana> "Y-yes!  We have to do whatever we can!"
[02:40] <Kaede> "Stupid crazies..." Kaede mumbled lightly, she barely even knew Yusa.
[02:40] <@Yazuno> "I agree. But we should use caution.
[02:40] <Maxine> "Hah, nothing is beyond my abilities!"
[02:40] <@Abbas> "H-hey, hold on... Just because it was her uniform doesn't..." He hiccuped and covered his mouth. The master didn't want to think about it.
[02:40] <Roche> "Is that a prudent decision of thy experience, Maxine? My concern abounds..."
[02:41] <Miki> "....I'm going!" Miki darted off in a randow direction
[02:41] <Miki> random*
[02:41] <Miki> "I'll find Yussa for sure!" she called
[02:41] * Roche 's wings flare back and forth as she preempts. "I-I am not afraid! No coward stands here! Miki!"
[02:41] <Tatiana> "W-wait!"  She calls out and follows after Miki, paying dilligent attention to her surroundings as well.
[02:42] <Maxine> "You bet it is, just earlier we blew up a tank, I think we can take on an alien."
[02:42] * Kaede sticks close to Abbas instead. "I afraid, not ashamed to say it. Let's go."
[02:42] * Roche follows Miki's tail and her eyes dart sharply around.
[02:43] <@Abbas> Tatiana, Roche, Miki: You find, not far from the uniform, a severed arm and an eyepatch...
[02:43] * Miki hisses, darting left and right, scanning above her and hunting down Yusa's scent
[02:43] <Maxine> "Well, there's no doubt that she's dead."
[02:44] <Tatiana> "No!  This is terrible..." She laments, picking up the eyepatch and clutching it tightly.
[02:45] <@Yazuno> ".... Hmm. This isn't good..."
[02:45] <Miki> "Y-Yussa! Yusssaa~!" Miki cried, her tail lashing about violently
[02:45] <@Abbas> "Okay... Okay... Forget my plan. Let's just get out!" He turns around, and makes to walk back before suddenly collapsing onto the ground. "God...damn, my stomach!"
[02:46] <Kaede> "Ah, master now is not time for constipation!" Kaede fretted hopping about in her place and trying to drag him back up.
[02:46] * Roche stands over the arm for a moment... before she picks it up, face blanching. At Abbas's cry she dashes to her liege's side and grips his shoulder solidly with one hand, hoping to offer comfort. Of course, her other hand has his maid's SEVERED ARM.
[02:47] <@Yazuno> "... do you need assistance, Master?" he asks... he'd rather not... but he has to ask.
[02:47] <@Abbas> You notice that beyond the arm and the eyepatch... is a disturbingly dark corridor. You almost feel like the shadows were moving...
[02:47] * Miki sniffs, slowing her pace. "Yusssaaa!" she whined
[02:48] <Kaede> "Eeek!! Booby lady why you bring that!?" Kaede squealed and pointed at the severed arm.
[02:48] <Maxine> "There's no way but forward, let's go!"
[02:49] * Tatiana looks at the dark corridor...  "Y-yusa?!  Can you hear me!?"
[02:49] * @Abbas slams his fist into the floor. "It hurts! It fucking hurts!"
[02:49] * Miki heads along slowly, looking around her, she can't sense much...
[02:49] * Tatiana pops out a pair of literal headlights and shines them down the corridor...
[02:49] <Roche> "Nay, my liege must be protected! Our action should be clear!"
[02:50] * @Yazuno walks over to Abbas and rolls him onto his back, looking at his stomach for any obvious abnormalities.
[02:50] <Roche> "I...must! I was there and stepped away!" Roche explains to Kaede
[02:51] <Kaede> "That explains nothing! Why bring arm back here!?" Kaede repeats.
[02:51] <@Abbas> Miki: Something suddenly leaps out at you from the ground!
[02:52] * @Yazuno calls over his shoulders... he needs to maintain order! "You two stop argueing. Our first priority is to get to safety, there is nothing more we can do for our fallen maid."
[02:52] * Roche blanched whiter, a stark contrast to her black wings. "I-I'm not leaving it!"
[02:52] * Miki meets it head on with a hiss!
[02:52] * Miki retches acid at it as they collide
[02:53] <@Abbas> Yazuno: You notice the skin has turned red... and some of his torso has caved in.
[02:53] <@Yazuno> "... I suggest not looking, Master." He racks his brain for information... what can he do? Can he even tell what this IS?
[02:53] * Kaede covers her mouth to stop herself from yelling, "What happened!?"
[02:54] * Maxine what the hell was that?!" she readies her lance.
[02:55] * Roche shrinks her wings in ashamedly at the call...until she hears Miki's hostile sound, and she shifts the arm to her left hand to free her right as she looks towards the shadowed corridor, taking a sum of three large steps toward it.
[02:56] <@Abbas> Miki: You come face to face with a transparent creature! It makes a gurgling sound as it attempts to attack again!
[02:56] * Tatiana readies her weapons and trains them on the spot she last saw Miki, checking the area with her headlights.  "Miki!  Are you okay?!"
[02:56] <Roche> [at [Yazuno's] call [to order]]
[02:56] * Parodius (stripedtsu@sux-222F7E8B.cpe.cableone.net) has joined #MaidRP
[02:57] * Miki blanches, fighting it tooth and nail, "H-Help!"
[02:57] * Roche slams her feet forward at Miki's shout, boosting her dash with a heavy flap, seeing movement above them--on the ceiling again!
[02:58] <Roche> "Above! Tatiana, gaze above!"
[02:58] * Tatiana jumps in to help Miki, pulling the thing away from her, and shooting it point blank with her guns!
[02:59] <Tatiana> "W-what?!"  She turns up and aims for the ceiling!
[02:59] <Kaede> "You think other are okay?" Kaede asked Yazuno, she did not go to join them as she had to deal with fear.
[02:59] * Miki lashes out with her tail, skittering away, "Y-Yusa..." her eyes tear up, "Let'sss get out of here!"
[03:01] * @Yazuno manages... to hit some pressure points! Yeah! He uses some zen meditation type shit he learned by studying for 300 years with buddhist monks to hit pressure points, and stop whatever is damaging Abbas! As he does so he mutters, just quietly enough Abbas would have to wonder if he really heard it, "If anyone is killing you it's me... so don't die just yet."
[03:02] * Roche pulls on Tatiana's arm for a moment and tries to jerk her toward the others after Miki, but feels threatened and spins around, wings flaring wide, spotting a sum of...four more!
[03:03] <@Abbas> The creature lets out an unsettling cry before dissolving into the floor.
[03:03] <Roche> "The creatures number four, fellows! They come from above!"
[03:03] <@Abbas> The master lays silent now, seeming to be breathing normally.
[03:03] <Kaede> "Oh...he okay?"
[03:04] <Tatiana> "Frak!"  She says, backing away some at the sight...
[03:04] * Roche squeezed the arm in her left hand tightly before throwing it under her shoulder, refusing to close her eyes against them!
[03:04] <Maxine> "What the hell was that?!"
[03:05] * Miki backs away as well, "Isss it too far to the ship?
[03:05] <@Yazuno> "Yes, Kaede. He will be okay... if we keep anything else from getting to him." He stands, cracking his knuckles.
[03:06] * Kaede suddenly understand what he means and gets up as well, clutching her halberd and looking around frantically. "W-what is attacking us?"
[03:07] * Roche grinds her feet into the ground and thrusts herself forward, producing her sword with a violent thrust, and slamming it into a creature, before dragging herself backwards with a beat of her wings!
[03:08] <@Abbas> The creature cries out, and almost pops like a balloon as it's hit.
[03:10] <Maxine> "..." she pokes it "lightly" with her spear and it pops. "What the hell is that? Combat training for middle schoolers?"
[03:10] * Miki retreats, hawking a large string of acid at the nearest creature
[03:13] <@Abbas> The alien sounds like it was sizzling before dissolving into the floor as well! Oh, what a world...
[03:16] * Maxine sighs and starts to put her lance back into the suitcase, not thinking much of the "fight"/
[03:17] <@Abbas> The alien sees Maxine's lowered guard and leaps at her! It envelops her in its membrane!
[03:18] * Maxine starts to flail around, trying to shake it off.
[03:21] * Tatiana shoots a brief jet of flame at the alien to try to cause it enough pain to make it get off of Maxine!
[03:22] <@Abbas> Kaede and Yazuno: You notice the way back seems to be as clear as you left it...
[03:22] <@Abbas> The creature squeals, but it manages to stay together!
[03:23] <Kaede> "Oh, maybe we take master back to shit and guard there? Better than waiting here with attack from all angles." Kaede tried to suggest to the ridiculously quiet Yazuno.
[03:23] <Miki> "Let'sss get back to the ssship!" her heart ached, thinking about what had happened to Yusa
[03:24] <Kaede> *back to ship
[03:24] * Roche careful considers her next attack, before stepping forward at Maxine and the aggressor powerfully! She doesn't pause once she arrives to slash past Maxine and bifurcate the blob effectively and safely.
[03:25] * @Yazuno nods his agreement and picks up the Master, ready to carry him back at a moments notice.
[03:25] * Kaede leads the way back to the ship for Yazuno, holding her halberd ready just in case.
[03:25] <@Abbas> The cut was so clean, the alien just collapses into itself, leaving Maxine there.
[03:26] * Miki starts running on all-fours for the ship frantically, "I'm sso ssorry Yusa..."
[03:26] * Maxine gasps for breath after the creature pops. "Fuah! That was disgusting, I'm soaked in what I assume is membrane juice now..."
[03:27] <@Yazuno> "You can clean yourself once we return to the ship. Lets move." He heads for the ship, Abbas in his arms.
[03:27] <Tatiana> "L-let's just go!"  She says, then chokes back a sob at the thought of Yusa's fate, and activates her wheeled mode, rushing back to the ship.
[03:28] * Miki manages to get to the ship, feeling sullen and clambering up to the ceiling with a shiver.
[03:29] * Maxine sighs and heads back to the ship.
[03:29] <@Abbas> Everyone: You run back frantically to the ship, but the aliens dropping from the ceiling say otherwise!
[03:29] <@Yazuno> "... Someone take the Master."
[03:29] * Roche keeps an eye on the darkness for a moment, then swings her body around and runs for the others. She pauses, scooping the arm in her left hand, swinging the sword in her right as she flaps to go faster! Suddenly, there's another encounter!
[03:30] <Kaede> "Eeek! Monsters!" Kaede hadn't seen them earlier.
[03:32] * Miki lashes at a monster, sick of fighting
[03:32] * Tatiana takes a few shots at some of the filthy xenos, but her current mode is more focused on speed than agility and combat, and so she doesn't do much.
[03:33] * Miki continues for the ship
[03:33] * Kaede waves her halberd around to try and knock the creatures aside while she continues for the ship as well.
[03:34] * Maxine spins her lance in front of her, trying to help clear a path.
[03:34] <@Yazuno> "Hn!" He crouches slightly, bunching his muscles, before he heaves and THROWS the master forward! He runs forward a few steps, one arm coming up in front of him... He kicks, slicing one alien in half! A punch, obliterating another! A jump and splits-kick, wiping out two more! A jump and spin, taking out a whole circle of them!
[03:34] * @Yazuno continues to dash forward, never having slowed down in the slightest, catching the Master in his arms again... and leaving a dozen dead aliens in his wake.
[03:37] <@Abbas> Again, defying the GM's attempts to create a challenge, you easily clear the hall of aliens. On the way back to the ship, you almost feel like doing a victory dance...
[03:37] * Miki follows behind the others
[03:38] * @Yazuno contents himself with a smirk.
[03:38] * Kaede sighs in relief, "So all that left of us here?" Kaede asked to the others.
[03:38] <@Abbas> The master seems to be out like a light.
[03:39] * Tatiana sighs...  "Yes..."  She holds her head in her hands...
[03:39] * Roche grinds to a stop for just a moment, but the path is cleared as she arrives, and she boosts forward again, sword and arm still in hands as she stays near the back, constantly looking behind her.
[03:41] * Kaede looks over to Roche, "Booby lady, let go of arm already. That not Yuza, Yuza dead and that just arm, not worth life."
[03:42] * Miki glares at Kaede, though she couldn't argue..Yusa was surely dead...
[03:44] <Roche> "No! I refuse! A-and I bequeath you desist commenting upon..." Roche pulls her sword arm across her chest, trying to press it in.
[03:45] * Miki clambers into the ship, crawling onto the ceiling
[03:46] <Roche> "It's..." Roche thinks about it. "I...I desire to grieve properly, Kaede. This be a physical reminder, as well as a thing to lay beneath the earth."
[03:47] <@Abbas> The ship whirrs a bit before a voice activates through the intercom. "Identities confirmed. Abbas confirmed incapacitated. Location?"
[03:47] * Tatiana rolls into the ship and stands up, then starts trying to clean herself off between sobs...
[03:48] * Roche made a motion to sheathe her sword as she boarded, and it fades from sight.
[03:49] * Kaede sighed, sure they lost a maid but she didn't really know her all that well to begin with. She did at least give her a moment of respect for the short time they shared.
[03:50] <Maxine> "People die when they're killed, that's just a fact of life. Don't hang on it for too long, we still have a job to do."
[03:51] <@Yazuno> "... Indeed. Someone tell the ship where to go." He carries the master to some place relatively comfortable, and lays him down
[03:51] <@Abbas> The voice repeats again, almost insistently. "Location?"
[03:53] * Miki whips her tail about, munching on some provologne cheese
[03:53] * Kaede continues looking out the window, she has no idea where they even planned to go. She hadn't been with this group for long.
[03:54] <@Yazuno> "... Computer, launch and take us into orbit for now."
[03:56] * Roche proceeds to a back room to get a container of some opaque sort to get the grotesque item far from sight.
[03:56] * Miki had trouble not thinking that if she had just stayed in the ship she would have been able to protect Yusa, before she knew it she had eaten all of her food.
[03:57] * Maxine gets a towel and dries off. "That was pretty disgusting..."
[03:58] * Roche bumps her wings on the ship as she returns to the rest, and they vanish as she sits morosely next to the master.
[03:59] * Tatiana looks miserably distant.  "How could this have happened..."
[03:59] <@Abbas> "Acknowledged. Right away-Yazuno."
[03:59] <Kaede> "People never died around you?" Kaede asked them.
[04:00] <Roche> "Yazuno."
[04:00] <@Abbas> The ship takes care of the launching sequence automatically, as it flies away you look back and notice... somebody running out of a ship that was nearby and screaming before being overtaken.
[04:00] * Miki skitters down to Tatiana, sitting close. "It wasn't worth it..."
[04:01] <Roche> "Sir Yazuno."
[04:01] <Kaede> "Is common occurance back home. I surprised to hear no one in group die before considering how dangerous is." Kaede looked genuinly surprised.
[04:02] <Roche> "Miki."
[04:02] <Maxine> "Even in military training, you'd see people who would over-exert themselves and just break down, day after day..."
[04:03] <Miki> "Yes, Roche...?"
[04:03] <Roche> "From whence did you obtain this ship?"
[04:03] * Tatiana takes Miki's hand, and turns to Kaede.  "I-it's one thing for somebody to die...  B-but I'm programmed to care for those who I work with..."
[04:03] * @Yazuno looks to Roche, having been staring intently at thier unconcious master. He seems to be snapping out of a trance, almost. "I'm sorry. What is it, Roche?"
[04:04] * Miki takes Tatiana's hand, "If something happens to me, don't care too much ok...?"
[04:04] <Miki> "I just took whatever was open, Roche..."
[04:05] <Roche> "Yazuno, had you informed this vehicle of your nomature?"
[04:07] * Tatiana shakes her head.  "I-I don't think I can promise that, Miki..."
[04:07] <Kaede> "You all way too overdramatic." Kaede sighed, "All of you still alive, is all that matters." she turned away and took out her abacus again to do a few calculations.
[04:08] * Miki nuzzles her shoulder, "I couldn't promise such a thing, either...Weren't you afraid back there Kaede?"
[04:08] <Maxine> "Enough of this gloomy atmosphere, let's hit Planet Haya Shida9, I hear it's where all the military types go for their leave, it's bound to be fun!
[04:09] <Kaede> "Of course. But it over now, it not haunt me for rest of life." Kaede said clearly.
[04:10] * Miki lays her head on Tatiana's lap, "I'll be fine..."
[04:11] <@Abbas> "We have departed. Ship now in free roam."
[04:12] <@Abbas> "This ship has no destination. Please," it pauses, "decide upon a destination.
[04:12] <@Yazuno> "I... don't believe so. Why do you ask?"
[04:13] * @Yazuno tries to recall, where was thier end destination before stopping at this space station?
[04:13] <Maxine> "Haya Shida9!"
[04:14] * Tatiana strokes Miki's hair absently.
[04:14] <Kaede> "I hear the Leblanc moons great for hiding."
[04:15] <Roche> "It corresponded amongst us with thy name. Is that anticipateable?"
[04:15] <@Yazuno> "I... can only assume the master programmed the ship with out identities upon his procurement of it."
[04:15] <Miki> Miki's hair is ratty and unkempt, black and wiry. Her tail sweeps back and forth, "I'm hungry, again..."
[04:16] <@Yazuno> "Pardon me. Computer? How do you know Abbas' name?"
[04:16] <@Abbas> The ship whirrs before responding. "Now, ah, heading to Haya Shida9..."
[04:17] <@Abbas> "This ship carries, ah, logs of Sir Abbas prior to this trip..."
[04:18] <@Yazuno> "Where did this ship obtain those logs?"
[04:19] <@Abbas> "Surveillance from a week before. Along with a Miss, ah, Miki."
[04:19] * @Yazuno narrows his eyes suspiciously.
[04:19] * Miki pokes her head up, "Hmm?"
[04:20] * Kaede falls asleep at some point, breathing softly as she relaxes from her earlier scare.
[04:20] * Tatiana starts trying to clean Miki's hair.  "You really should take better care of yourself, Miki..."  She says with a faint smile.
[04:22] <Roche> "Computer? Which but for those among us are thou able to ascerain the names of?"
[04:23] * Miki kind of likes the smoother feeling in her hair now, "I suppose it wouldn't hurt..The rain on my planet makes it that way."
[04:24] <@Abbas> "...[Whrr]...This ship is able to identify five persons. One Abbas, one Maxine, one Miki, one Roche, and one Tatiana."
[04:30] * Miki stretched, feeling worn out
[04:31] <@Abbas> "One Yazuno is not thoroughly identified."
[04:32] <@Yazuno> "hat is for the best, computer."
[04:32] <@Yazuno> that*
[04:32] <@Abbas> "Error: IDYusa missing. Turning back..."
[04:32] <Miki> "W-What..?"
[04:32] <@Yazuno> "No, computer. Yusa is now deceased." He says it calmly, as if it doesn't bother him at all.
[04:32] <Roche> "Computer. Halt action."
[04:33] * Miki looks up at Tatiana, "Do you get error messages in your head?"
[04:33] <@Abbas> The ship made to turn about, but suddenly stops. "...[Whrr]... Confirmed. Returning on to course."
[04:35] <Tatiana> "Ah...  Yes, I do.  In a sense.  H-however in order to better simulate organic life, it...  Doesn't halt any processes unless it's a serious error.  It manifests as worry, usually..."
[04:37] <@Abbas> "Now landing: Haya Shida9."
[04:37] <Miki> "I...See..." Miki tried her best to understand.
[04:39] <@Abbas> The ship, after landing smoothly despite a rocky footing, opens the entryway to the ship.
[04:39] * Kaede wakes up after a few moments. "Where we are?" she asked yawning.
[04:39] * Maxine (Shimi@sux-49528D1C.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) Quit (Ping timeout)
[04:40] * Miki slinks up, heading for the entrance
[04:42] * Roche glanced over at Yazuno. He says worrying things at times but he protects the liege with great power. She tilted her head full back and looked up at Abbas, before leaning her head back and resting her eyes a little.
[04:46] <@Abbas> Looking out the windows, you can see a beautiful landscaped not touched by mankind's decaying hold. The ocean looks beautiful, but frankly the lack of population still annoys you. For whatever reason, all the populated areas are kept out of the atmosphere, the stations covering it almost create an outer shell, causing some parts of the planet to grow colder and become enveloped in ice and snow.
[04:46] * Maxine (Shimi@sux-49528D1C.hsd1.tx.comcast.net) has joined #MaidRP
[04:48] * Miki heads outside, looking around. "Is it sssafe?"
[04:49] * Kaede steps out, no one bothering to answer her question. "I see no reason for it be dangerous." she simply states to Miki in a deadpan manner as she walks by with her halberd on her back.
[04:49] <@Abbas> Miki seems to be quite alright stepping out and walking around.
[04:49] * Tatiana follows Miki, looking around.  "I'm not certain...  From the looks of things, a high degree of wildlife is likely...  But it is rather beautiful..."
[04:49] * Miki slinks around Tatiana, "It isss..."
[04:51] <@Abbas> The nearby trees look to be a burning orange and red, and the wind whips about strongly.
[04:52] <Roche> * The trip ended briefly enough, and Roche stood to watch the others go. "If thee mind not, I should want to maintain by my liege's side..."
[04:54] <@Abbas> Aside from this, you can see no reason to really stay on the planet.
[04:54] <Tatiana> "Hmm...  Windy, though..."  She says, trying to straighten her hair despite the challenge.
[04:54] * Miki sits on the ground, "Hmm..."
[04:58] * Miki slinks over to Abbas, "Will we be staying here?"
[04:59] <@Abbas> The master seems to be out still...
[04:59] * Kaede grabs some supplies from the ship and comes back out to start setting up a camp area. She doesn't really seem to care for the atmosphere, it held little value to her.
[05:01] * Miki follows behind Kaede, grabbing some supplies as well, "I do like sleeping outside..."
[05:04] * Roche turned to Abbas, and nodded, as if he was looking, and hoisted some supply containers--certain to not pick up...that container--and walked them outside, setting them to unpack
[05:04] * Kaede doesn't bother answering Miki, just putting up camp while trying not to mess up. She finally finishes and then answers, "Sleep outside is good for body, strengthen resolve."
[05:05] * Tatiana heads inside and grabs some other containers, setting them out as well.
[05:06] <Miki> "Mmhmm~" Miki agrees, digging into the ground some, "Living in a big house costs alot of money doesn't it? I'd rather be in a burrow~"
[05:08] <Kaede> "Living in big house nice too. Feel safe." she answered curtly before sitting down and deciding to brush her hair a bit to distract herself.
[05:08] * Maxine crawls out of the supply crate yawning. "Yeah, a nice military bunker is all I need~" she gets up and stretches a bit.
[05:08] <Miki> "Houses can burn, or collapse~" she contended
[05:10] <Kaede> "And burrows can be cave in or be flooded." Kaede countered.
[05:10] <Maxine> "And people die. Does that mean you should throw your life away right now?"
[05:11] <@Abbas> As the maids converse peacefully, a giant snake seems to slither into the ship...
[05:11] <Tatiana> "Ah, are you really going to sleep outside, Miki?  What if it rains?"
[05:11] <Miki> "I'll wake up?" Miki smiles
[05:14] <@Abbas> The snake slithers up to where the supply crate had been before... disappointed in the now lack of food.
[05:15] <Kaede> "I bored." Kaede sighed.
[05:16] <Miki> "Me too..." Miki curled up in her burrow
[05:18] <Maxine> "Well...We could take care of that massive snake." she says nonchalantly, pointing it out as she readies her lance.
[05:18] * Tatiana turns to Kaede.  "Well...  Maybe you should take the ship to the upper atmosphere stations and find us some supplies...  Maybe pick up some entertainment on the way."
[05:19] * @Yazuno says from behind Maxine somehow. "Indeed."
[05:19] <Kaede> "Snake is good to eat." Kaede pointed out.
[05:19] * Tatiana jumps.  "Sn-snake?!  Where?!"
[05:19] <Roche> "A serpent? My liege!"
[05:20] <Tatiana> "How did I miss THAT?!"  She says in dismay as she readies her weapons.
[05:20] * Miki looked up, slithering towards the snake, "Ohhh~ He's dreamy~" she blushed
[05:21] * Roche jumped up and stepped closer to the snake, looking for where to slip past it--it takes up quite a large amount of the entrance at this point at least.
[05:22] <@Abbas> Indeed, you're not sure how you missed it. The thing is long enough to still be hidden in the forest nearby.
[05:23] <Kaede> "Is big snake."
[05:24] <Roche> "Sooth."
[05:24] * Kaede takes out her halberd, ready to try and maybe scare it away.
[05:24] <Miki> "Biiig Sssnaake~" Miki wrung her hands
[05:28] * Maxine is able to get a running start at her target this time and throws her lance. "This should be a piece of cake, we outnumber him!"
[05:28] <Miki> "H-Hey what are you doing!?" Miki calls frantically
[05:29] <Roche> "Maxine, pause your tip! My liege remains aside its head!"
[05:30] <@Abbas> The snake didn't see the attack coming, suddenly it makes a loud bump into the ceiling of the ship as it tries to back out.
[05:30] <Maxine> "Look at him, he's running away like a coward! The master will be fine."
[05:32] * Tatiana rushes up to the snake and tries to wrap her arms around it and tug.  "Get OUT of there!"
[05:33] <Kaede> "...Tatiana is crazy." Kaede remarked, not entirely sure if she should bother.
[05:33] <@Abbas> No use! It's too heavy, even for a robot!
[05:33] <Miki> "T-Tatiana isn't crazy!"
[05:33] <@Abbas> The snake finally seems to pull out, however, as it rears back and hisses dangerously at the maids.
[05:35] * Tatiana lets go and backs off, giving a tentative burst from her guns at the sky!
[05:40] <Kaede> "Why snake hiss at us?" Kaede complained, reading her weapon without much confidence, how could she attack THAT?
[05:40] <@Abbas> It reels away after hearing Tatiana's guns and slithers back into the forest....
[05:40] <@Yazuno> "Because snakes are quite ornery."
[05:41] <Tatiana> "Oh...  That was easy..."  She rubs the back of her head in...  Some sort of emotional state.
[05:42] * Miki calls "D-Don't...! Go...." she sighs
[05:43] <Maxine> "Hah! As if I'd let my target get away." she calls back the spear and begins to chase it.
[05:43] <@Yazuno> "Maxine, I wouldn't do that."
[05:43] * Roche watches the snake retreat and runs into the ship, looking around for damage from the thrash it perpretated as it pulled back.
[05:44] <Kaede> "This all very well and good, but giant snake means other giant things right?" Kaede pointed out, "We not leave for other planet or city?"
[05:45] * Miki slinks over to Kaede, "I'd be willing to leave, I suppose..."
[05:45] * Tatiana ponders...  "Well, maybe.  But I can't think of anywhere better to stay..."
[05:46] <@Abbas> Roche: You find a huge dent in the ceiling of the ship.
[05:47] <Kaede> "Crazy lady, booby lady, sleep lady and snake lady might want figure it out soon, master is hurt and we can't fight giant snakes!"
[05:47] <Maxine> "Hmph, looks like it got away...For now." she goes to her suitcase and flips a switch inside which causes her lance to reassemble with two points, like a tuning fork. She then jabs it into the ground and gives it a good kick. "I hope this still works..."
[05:47] <Miki> "Hmm? He iss?" Miki heads on into the ship
[05:48] <@Abbas> Maxine: The tuning fork seems to react. ...Now how were you going to find out what direction it was in.
[05:49] * Maxine checks the radar in the suit. Duuuh.
[05:50] <Maxine> *suitcase
[05:51] <@Abbas> The radar points out the snake perfectly.
[05:51] <@Abbas> Grab your spear, it's huntan time.
[05:51] * @Yazuno walks over to Maxine. "What are you doing?"
[05:52] * Maxine grabs her lance and follows the blip. "Hunting, Yazuno! Miss Maxine never lets a target escape!"
[05:52] <@Yazuno> "..." He sighs. "You realise how dangerous this is,"?
[05:52] <Maxine> "Danger is the spice of life! Come on!"
[05:53] <@Yazuno> "... very well. I suppose I should make sure you don't get yourself killed. Lead on, mighty hunter."
[05:53] <Miki> "I'll stay with the master!" Miki calls
[05:53] * @Yazuno brushes some hair out of his eyes
[05:53] * Miki rakes a claw over Abbas, "Helloooo~?"
[05:53] <Roche> "...This is unfortunate, but the result is not to greatly heed," Roche spoke to the dent as Miki passed her to check on the liege.
[05:55] <@Abbas> The master seems to stir... "Mmmn... Uhhh?" He looks around, surprised to be inside the ship before looking down at the maid. "Miki? What-The ship! We're... Oh, thank God."
[05:55] <@Abbas> He fell back onto the seat in relief.
[05:55] * Miki nods, "They just the handsome snake away...So I thought I'd come check on you! Are you hurt?"
[05:55] <Miki> chased the*
[05:55] * Tatiana sits down on the loading ramp, brushing herself off and straightening her hair.
[05:56] * Maxine continues in the direction of the blip. "This is the life for me, in jungle, hunting dangerous game! I could get used to this."
[05:56] <Roche> "My liege! You've awoken!" Roche steps forward, kneeling one leg and putting a hand on Abbas's arm.
[05:56] <@Yazuno> "Why would you want to? I understand the thrill but our line of work is dangerous enough already."
[05:57] <@Abbas> "Handsome snake? Oh... Haha, right. No, I'm not hurt, thanks." He seemed to be in high spirits. Knowing that you're not dead when you were convinced you would be has that effect.
[05:57] * Kaede gets with a rather annoyed look and walks back to the ship and straight into Abbas' face, "Master!" she yells out.
[05:57] <Maxine> "What? Poking slimes? Surely you don't want to do that your entire life."
[05:57] <Miki> "That's good!" Miki nodded, "Are we going to--" Miki gets interrupted by Kaede
[05:58] * @Abbas pulls his head back quickly! "K-Kaede! What is it!?"
[05:59] * @Yazuno smirks. "That was hardly the most dangerous thing I have faced. There was this assassination attempt by Kotaro CCCLX..."
[05:59] <Kaede> "I bored! This entire group just talk big and serious! There's no money! No snacks! Nothing! I'm at wits end here!" Kaede grabs his shirt and starts shaking him with her small arms. Her jitteriness had finally reached it's peak, too much time staying still most likely.
[06:00] <Miki> "I am worried about that 'no snacks' part..."
[06:02] <@Abbas> "O-okay, okay, Kaede! Ouch... Where are we, anyway...?"
[06:02] <Miki> "Haya...Ssshida9?"
[06:02] * Kaede lets go after getting all that off her chest.
[06:03] <@Abbas> "...Oh. So we ended up here after all."
[06:03] <@Abbas> "Good, good! So, I assume we're on our way to our hotel?"
[06:03] <Roche> "Hotel, liege?"
[06:03] <Kaede> "Hotel? No hotel here."
[06:04] <Kaede> "Giant snakes." Kaede repeated what Miki had said earlier.
[06:06] <@Abbas> "...What? I thought you said we were on Haya Shida9?"
[06:06] <Kaede> "Giant snake size of train."
[06:08] <@Abbas> "Giant snake... Oh, wait..."
[06:08] <Miki> "Huuuuuuuge~ snake.." Miki sighs, wistfully
[06:08] <@Abbas> "Are we ON the planet?"
[06:09] <Miki> "You sure do ask the strangest questionss...Of course we are."
[06:09] * Roche pointed to the roof. "The walking space's canopy has received damage."
[06:10] <Kaede> "Sleeping lady and beast man went to hunt giant snake in forest."
[06:10] <@Abbas> "Ahh... No, what we really need to do is get outside the planet, on the residential district...
[06:11] <Miki> "Ssshould we wait for the otherss?"
[06:11] * @Abbas looks up, noting the damage. "Did you run into something nasty in space?"
[06:11] <Roche> "Nay, that was the serpent's doing."
[06:12] <@Abbas> "Okay, Kaede. Tell me they at least know to not chase it too far. This place is feared for its bears."
[06:13] <Kaede> "If I say it, it'd be lie."
[06:15] <@Abbas> Maxine+Yazuno: Suddenly, the snake makes a lightning fast strike at you from around a tree!
[06:15] <@Yazuno> "Hn! Watch out!" He suddenly leaps out of the way.
[06:16] * Miki starts poking around at the controls, "So can we go and get sssnackss? I'm hungry!"
[06:17] <@Abbas> "Very well, Miki... We can return later. They'll most likely be out all day."
[06:17] <Miki> "Good! Make it go!" Miki points haphazardly at the controls
[06:19] <Roche> "Thou form a good appraisal. I am concerned, but not worrysome--little could best those two.
[06:22] <@Abbas> "Yeah. Ship, could you please take us to the residential district?" "I can, sir."
[06:23] <Kaede> "What about others?"
[06:23] <@Abbas> The entryway closes shut surprisingly, as it flies up into the atmosphere. "We won't be long."
[06:23] <Kaede> "Bears sounds bad..."
[06:24] * Tatiana walks inside the ship fully.  "We're leaving, then?"
[06:25] <@Abbas> "They're really not terrible. Now, I heard there was a monster in the forests that left trails the size of rivers. That's something I'd be afraid of, if I were them."
[06:27] * Tatiana looks a bit concerned...  "Ah...  If you think they'll be alright, then...  I guess I'll just go into sleep mode for now..."
[06:27] * Miki curls up beside Tatiana, "Mmmhmm"
[06:28] <Kaede> "Hmm...sucks to be them. I take nap too, maybe calm down." she sighed finding an empty spot in the ship to lie down.
[06:29] * Tatiana blushes, then wraps her arm around Miki and her eyes slowly glaze over as she powers down most of her systems to save power...
[06:30] * Miki nuzzles Tatiana, her tail snaking about as she drifts off to sleep
[06:30] <@Abbas> Something seems strange about the ship. Instead of stopping at the residential district they pass right over. Suddenly, Abbas notices a massive ship drifting above them, in their path... A hole in its side opening as their own ship draws into it. Somehow... Abbas doesn't know why, but he feels a great fear run through his mind...
[06:31] * Roche looks at the snake and the android, just curious of their actions, even if she suspects things. She steps into a free space and reveals her wings, stretching them properly and widely, betraying a yawn at the same time.
