RearAdmiralZill:
-Narrator-

Zill slept surprisingly well that last night. Despite PapaP's antics, the night had fully rested the crew of Then It Was Fixed. He attempted to get up out of the extremely comfortable bed but was grabbed by Jun'ko.

Just a few more minutes hmm? *Grins*

I certainly know that look.

They kissed for awhile and then she broke to say something.

Now I wont feel so bad when PapaP gets jealous again.

*Laughs* If that grumpy old bag of gears can manage jealousy, Ill grow a propeller out my tail end.

Zill emerged from the quarters to find a very quiet vessel. His mask around his neck, he took a deep breath of the air. He didnt much care for the smell.

Hmm, hint of kerosene. We arent alone this morning.

Shinkurex emerges from his room.

Ahoy Zill. Lovely morning eh?

Indeed. Make ready the guns and when PapaP gets up tell him the same. Ive got a feelin'.

Oh hell...

Zill was then greeted by radio static and then Yiski over the line.

I looked at the map and if we decided to run moonshine we should get to Hole by late afternoon.

Sounds good. I'll let my engineers get intimate with the engines.

And Yiski, keep your guns ready and a careful eye. We're being followed.

Shinkurex:
*Adrenaline pumping with the thought of combat, Shink hops down to the lower deck, and loads some of the specialty rounds into the lumberjacks. If there is a battle, Shink wants to be the first one to hit them. PapaP comes clambering out of his bunk*

"What in the Burren waste land are you doing Shink?"

"Get your guns ready. Looks like we got a tail. I'll take the front guns, you can have the back. I don't want Zill's tar messing up my armor"

*Shink smiles at the distasteful look Papa gives him at the thought of another tarring, But soon starts concentrating on the gun sights, and keeping a lookout for the enemy*

BdrLineAzn:
--M'Naghten--

*Yiski at the helm talking to Zill through the radio*
Follwed eh. Alright I'll tell the others to get everything prepped.

*He puts the receiver back onto the radio system and calls down to the three*
Got a word in from Zill. He says we're being followed. So BdrLine go and load up the Flak Cannon. Ny-Lee and Roland get the side guns ready as well and watch the engines, gonna use moonshine

On it.
*BdrLine rushes to the bow and starts loading the Flak*

*Ny-Lee goes up to the Gataling gun and starts to load that as well*
*To Roland*
Roland can you load up flame thrower? Once finished, I'll watch the bottom engines, can you watch the main.

*Roland goes over the the flame thrower and starts loading the liquid*
Already on it

*As all three guns are loaded, and Ny-Lee and Roland watching the engines, Yiski radios Zill*
All ready on my side. Hows it going on your end.

RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed-

*Zill pops hydrogen to get above the treeline of the forest and makes a heading for Lookout.*

Jun, fix up that balloon and then head to main engine. Let me know when youre there. Shink and Papa, make your final touches and get to turning engines.

Aye my Admiral.

On it.

Yup.

Jun'ko relieves the stress from the balloon and heads to the main engine below deck.

Im here!

Poppin' Moonshine.

The Galleon lurches forward, steam billowing out the back. Zill gets word to Yiski on the radio.

Im making full steam for Lookout. The break in the trees will give us a good vantage and give me some breathing room.

Zill leaves the helm and looks off his stern. Smoke can be seen lifting up from the trees.

Knew they wouldnt leave us alone for long. Time to pluck some feathers.

BdrLineAzn:
--M'Naghten--

*Yiski sees 'Then It Was Fixed' rise above the treeline*
*Still on the radio*

I see you rising up, any spots on our feathery friends. *sees Zill in the open* ...You want me there besides you trailing in formation, or hugging the treeline and pop up behind them when the see you.

*Yiski turns away from the radio and to BdrLine*
Bdr get ready on the main gun, they may be closer than i thought.

*BdrLine gets into the gunner seat all shaken with excitement*
*With a smirk, sights in the Cannon*
Here we go, those feather brains won't know what hit them.

*Yiski turns around to the towards the stern*
Roland, Ny watch those engines, things may get hairy in a few minutes. And Roland, if i do lift up from here, watch the balloon, poppin' Hydrogen if we do.

On it Yiski
