Age of Steam! The Brass Voyage.

[Doom114]

A few seconds after the Doctor put the cap on the vial, Dom risked a breath, instantly regretting it as he retched again, then moved away from the hall, still choking from the smell. After he got a bit away, he tested the air, then took deep breaths clearing his head, rubbing his temples, fighting back a headache. He slung his crossbow, straightening up and arched his back, still dizzy. He looked back from where he'd come, hoping that the doctor had followed him.

Lady Como, Melodia

The Countess looked at the boy, well they were somewhat the same age, give or take a few years. "I'm fine but your free to come along. Of course, if your using this just to get a break from your duties, I might fire you!" She gave Mitch a sinister, playful grin. Melodia just stood there, being all quiet like a ghost. "Umm, come on now..." She handed out her hand when Melodia gave a deathly stare, you would never think such a small girl could give such an intimidating stare. "Gulp..." But at the end of it, she extended her hand as the countess grabbed it. "You see? It isn't so bad!" They both entered the Brassheart as the countess mentionned for Mitch to come aswell. "Come on before we dep- WHOAH!" Suddenly, the ship started moving as its main engines roared to life, the black plumes getting thicker as the docks began to shake. "Damned that fool of a man!"

Captain Alev

(5 minutes earlier)

Rushing to the control deck of the ship, the good captain stared at the captains chair (Look at his pic in the OOC), simply amazed by the complexity of it. "Such a beauty... " He felt the leather seat, still a fresh new car like smell coming from it. "And she's all mine! " He simply couldn't wait for the Countess to get aboard as he opened a window to look at the entrance. Waiting and watching the Countess and the Lyxer child climbing aboard, he found it good enough. "Good enough for me! Time to take off! Great adventures wait for no man!" Climbing into the captains chair, he pressed a few buttons, switched a few levers and turned a few clockworks and WHAM, the ship roars like a waking god! "FEEL HER POWER MORTALS! THE BRASSHEART SETS SAILS! "

(He acts silly and childish around new toys and when he's alone.)

[Kisuke]

"Well, officially, my job is security, so you could say I'm acting as your personal guard for the time being. There are a few people aboard this ship that just don't sit right with me." Mitch pointed at the large katana strapped over his shoulder as he mentioned his job. He started to walk with the two when the ship roared to life, knocking him slightly off balance. He quickly steadied himself and realized that his skates might be more of a hindrance than an asset until he got his ship legs. He knelt down, pressed a button on the side of each of his skates and the wheels and rockets retracted up and under the legs of his pants, leaving him with regular shoes. "There. Now then, shall we?" He stood up straight and smiled at Lady Como, gesturing towards the entrance to the interior of the Brassheart.

[Lief]

Mark ran over to the boat, having gotten lost in the vast city... Again. "Oh, how I hate this damned city!" He realized the boat was leaving and ran to the end of the docks and jumped, barely grasping the edge with his mechanical hand. He heard talking up on the deck and called out. "Uh, hello? If someone's up there, could they please pull me up? Can't leave without your navigator!" If you looked, you could see he was grinning like a maniac. (Think of Vash's stupid grin that he abuses in Trigun. )

[TheMoonKing]

Necro had tried to clean his equipment with normal water, but to no avail. "Disgusting, vile creature that doctor!" he told no one in particular. He decided to hunt again. Unfortunetly he wouldn't be able to hunt as Necro, but perhaps Mathias had a better chance. He changed into his disguise, but this time without the cloth, hoping to throw off anyone who knew the monk was a ruse. He just needed to calm his bloodlust. He stalked the living quarters of the ships, and the entertainment districts. He found his prey as a lavish woman with a happy dog. He followed her as she gave herself a private tour. When she got to a hallway that only ended in a bay window, that's when Necro decided to strike. "Hello madame..." he said smoothly. She jumped a little in reaction to his voice. Her dog started barking. "Oh, you startled me half to death." she said in a thick accent. "Oh my, we can't be stopping halfway..." he whispered. She looked at him funny...and looked down at the blade sticking into her heart. She coughed and tried to speak, but the only thing to come out was blood. Necro's right hand opened up like a funnel, and he caught every drop. He opened the window and tossed her body outside. Her dog was wimpering at the window. Necro looked at it and picked it up. You disgusting animal. No...no your an insect...and insects need to be crushed. he thought. And he calmly flexed his hand...breaking the dogs neck. He tossed it out as well after draining it. He was ready to start cleaning again. He was relaxed...he had his fill.

Glazdon does eventually make his way out of the cloud of steam with both suitcases in hand. He walks up to Dom and sets the bags down on the ground again before reaching into his satchel. He pulls out a red vial with an atomizer attached to the top like a perfume bottle. He holds the bottle in front of Dom's face and sprays the contents once. This formula has a slightly sweet smell to it and after being inhaled will relieve Dom of his headache, lightheadedness, and generally restore his strength. He places the vial back in his satchel before picking up his bags.
"Infirmary."
His voice actually sounds rather smooth and young to be a doctor, but has a slightly expected deeper tone.

[Doom114]

Dom closes his eyes as the doctor sprays him then shook his head, blinking repeatedly then looking at the doctor. He gets up to follow him, glancing over his shoulder, still wary of the doctor's assailant. After a few moments of standing there Dom asked "What happened back there, doctor?" Dom kept waiting for the doctor to lead to the med-bay.

[Crowlin]

Dr. Glazdon is actually just standing there with his bags in his hands, shrugging silently in response to Dom's question and the silence continuing awkwardly until Dom realizes the the word 'infirmary' was actually an inquiry to it's location rather than an order to follow. XD

[Doom114]

Dom realized that the doctor didn't know his way to the infirmary. "Oh, I'm sorry, just one second." He reaches into his pockets to get his maps, but was unable to find them. "What, where'd they... Umm, it appears that my maps have been stolen..." Dom closes his eyes, trying to remember the maps, he knew what part of what deck they were on, and was pretty sure that he could find his way. "I believe the infirmary is this way." he says as he starts walking.

[Crowlin]

Glazdon nods and follows Dom, being much more wary of his surroundings now with the earlier encounter.

[the red soldier]

Lady Como, Melodia

The Lady smiled as she was about to go but noticed someone hanging on the side, yelling. "Blame the good captain for your current predicament. He was too eager to try out the ship..." Extending her free hand, she helped the navigator onto the ship. "Your free to come along on the tour, the captain as it all under wraps for now. At least, I hope the fool can at least get us out of the Vezuli docks." With that, the small group entered the ship.

As they entered the main hall, one could only feel the immense amount of wealth glowing through the golden walls. Melodia seemed amazed by the sight, it was so different from Lyxordom architecture who uses primarily gray stone drabbed in Crimson and black cloths and silk. It seemed cheery instead of the gloomy palace of her fathers although truth be told, the palace probably costs more then this ship. "It is pretty..." She finally says to Lady Como's surprise. "I hope you like it. This will be your home for the next few months after all." Melodia managed to crack a smile for about two seconds before it vanished. "I want to see more..." Como smiled that she seems to like the ship, atleast she had one pleasant Lyxor on the ship. She only wondered though where that lunatic Lord Protector went to.

Captain Alev

The captain steered the ship out of the docks as crowds in the tens of thousands swarmed at the Brasshearts majestic sight. Sounding its great horn, you could see the people cheer and throwing graffiti as fireworks filled the sky. "Ha! They are in haw at her beauty! And no wonder!" A massive grin grew on his face as he pulled a few levers and started to spin some kind of device. "And we depart! First stop... huh... That's the navigators job! I'm going to the open sea!"

Strange group of people acting bizarrely suspicious

Unknown to the rest of the crew, a group of the hired laborers and hand decks started to group in the bottom of the ship. "I cannot wait any longer commissar, when do we strike at these infidels?!" One in the group, possibly the leader, slapped the impatient man upside the head. "Silence you fool! We must wait until we are at least in open seas! We cannot possibly capture this ship if were still surrounded by other Republic ships!" The man made a small bow. "I am sorry commissar. I am just tired of seeing these capitalists scum running around like sheep!" The commissar smiled at the man. "Do not worry, by the end of the day, this ship will rightfully belong to the great Czarina. May her will be done!"

(Plot point! )

[Der Kojote]

Ka-sheen continued walking and ran into the group again. this time though he thought to himself "two times this is a sign...or a coincidence. he then got absorbed in the sights again, seeing the golden walls the beauty of the globe the ceiling all was perfect. at least until he ran smack dab into a wall in full view of the captain, engineer and guest. he tapped his head and looked at the captain. "my apologies mam...I'm usually a lot more, coordinated...but as this is my first time on a ship... and probably the grandest sight I've ever seen..." he looked at the ground and the group again. "sorry this proabaly is not the best way to get introduced to the anti-burglary system...

[Worbak]

Maze walked out of the janitor's closet of a hallway taking out a mop and a bucket and dipped the mop into the bucket and began to mop the hallway floor casually..It seemed alright no one was there to suspect him of anything and he got his own closet incase anything happened and he seemed happy..Than one though came to his mind..It would be funny if someone slipped on the wet floor cause he "forgot" to put a sign there and so he did and continued mopping after going to a diffrent spot hoping someone would fall into his sly trap "I can already tell this is gonna be fun..Just have to wait now."He said to himself as he mopped.

[TheMoonKing]

Necro had finished cleaning his equipment using the freshly boiled human blood. He put his disguise back on, and perused the ship. It's time I start act 2 in my requiem of destruction! But in order to do that...I'm going to need a bit of a distraction. He thought. He sat in the nearest diner and contemplated his thoughts. He felt good, everything had been going to plan...except his encounter with the doctor. But that is just a bug in the system. Easily squashed. He needed an idea to come to him. Something of a miracle, perhaps. That's when it clicked. He smiled...the girl...

[the red soldier]

Lady Como, Melodia

The group advanced a bit more, heading towards the noble part of the ship. It was even more decorated then the entrance hall if it was even possible, adorned with jewels and gold. "Beautiful isn't it?" Lady Como smirked at the thief catcher who tagged along. "I have a feeling you'll spend most of your time on this part of the ship!" She said chuckling a bit. Melodia let go of Como's hand for a bit as she started to play in a golden fountain, getting her hands wet a bit. The Lyxordom rarely had fountains, preferring large expertly crafted statues, often of the current Imperator. Lady Como meanwhile looked out a window, noticing they were entering the open seas. Suddenly, the sound of gun fire erupted in the ship. It was far away but it wasn't just one incident, the shots sounded more like a small regiment stormed the ship. "What the hell is going on?!" Several soldier types passed lady Como as atleast three stayed to guard her and Melodia. "The ships under attack Madam. No details yet on the attackers." Then, the alarms began to ring across the ship.

(Those soldiers are Giacomo Trading Guild guards btw)

Lord Protector

The sound of the gun fire and the alarms unnerved the Lord Protector, even more so that he had no idea were her excellency was. He felt as if he screwed up. "I kNeW tHeSe VeRmIn WeRe UsElEsS! CaNt EvEn SeCuRe ThErE oWn ShIp!" He began to rush towards the noble area, its the only place that they could have brought her excellency, unless they were trying to insult the Lyxer bloodline.

Captain Alev

As the alarms began to ring across the ship, Alev began to grow nervous, he didn't know what to do. His first thought was to rush to Lady Como's side but then again, leaving the command deck unattended could cause even worse problems if these attackers ever managed to reach this far. He did the logical thing and locked the heavy doors to the command room and prepared his shotgun in case they reached this far. "Sorry Countess, I hope you can handle yourself..."

Hijackers

The hijackers quickly managed to wrestle control of the lower decks as there surprise attack was damned effective. The guards tried there best but they were simply to overwhelmed and in shock, not knowing how to effectively deal with the situation. They were thought how to repel boarding parties, not how to repel a force already on the ship! Quickly moving to the upper levels, they began to shoot at anyone that wasn't part of the coup, civlians and crew workers alike. "MOVE IT! DONT GIVE THEM TIME TO REGROUP!" One of them screamed aloud as the sound of gunfire and explosions rocked the corridors of the lower levels.
