Burning Skies Saloon Quest: Past, Present, and Future
RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed-
*Zill overhears and doses the bottom deck with the extinguisher system, covering both in chem spray.*
Oh sorry guys. You were getting a little hot down there. Feel free to continue making out and sharing feelings.
Yiski:
--M'Naghten--
--NARRATOR--
The M'Naghten was leading Then It Was Fixed by at least 1 km. They maintained this distance in case of another battle breaking out. Yiski would attempt to distract, while giving Zill time to get broadside.
As BdrLine was having his moment wondering why resistance is light, Yiski was having the same thought.
Well, we didn't get a good look to whether those ships had the Birdmen symbol, but it's rare to see raiders with pyras. Even if raiders did use pyras, they wouldn't just rush in.
Yiski gave a sigh and shook his head.
Meh. We're almost to Hole. At least we'll we able to re...supply.. in..... oh for the love of the skies.
As the team approached Brigfern, the town before Hole, Yiski spotted the following: Two galleons, two pyramidions, and a goldfish. Yiski knew Brigfern was much like Faberia and this caused Yiski to examine the ships further with his spyglass.
Bloody skies, those ships has the symbol.
Yiski yelled down to the crew and over the radio.
I got five Birdmen ship contacts roughly 3 km South! I repeat. I count five contacts 3 km South!
Roland calls back to Yiski as he approaches near the helm.
Yiski what should I.....
Before Roland could finish, the pyramidions open mercury fire. Three shots rang by the M'Naghten. The fourth, hit a foot of the helm and on top of Roland's position.
The only thing Zill heard over the radio was...
ROLAND!
--NARRATOR END--
RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed-
*Zill saw the shots on M'Naghten, and then spoted the 5 Birdmen ships*
PORT SIDE NOW!
*He threw it into reverse and swung the port guns to bare. Shink and PapaP started firing. THey immediately hammer away at the Galleons. Jun is on dedicated repairs. The flak coming in was sustained and was starting fires. Zill glanced at M'Nagthen and started getting worried. They were taking a lof of Howitzer fire. He made a brash move and blocked the incoming fire. He hails Yiski.*
Get repaired fast. I cant do this all day.
The hull is critical!
She'll hold.
*The explosions rang out on the town's outskirts.*
Yiski:
--M'Naghten--
*After the smoke cleared from the helm deck, Yiski ran over to where Roland was standing. Yiski found Roland lying on the ground. Roland gave a few coughs which gave Yiski a moment sigh of relief.*
Roland, get down into the hull now!
*Yiski yelled over to BdrLine and Ny-Lee*
BdrLine, get on the flak. We need some fire while I throw us into reverse. Ny-Lee, help Roland on the hull. Zill, I'm fallin' back to you. We need to get the hell out of here!
*Roland manages to get to the hull, but when Ny-Lee arrives, she sees him clearly shaken and unable to keep the armor.*
Roland... are you....
Guys! I need the armor back up five minutes ago.
*Yiski yells into the radio at Zill.*
We need to find a way out now!
RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed-
*Zill could hear Yiski's pleas. He knew it wasnt good. *
Right, Go low, go fast! We're making a line for Truth Lake! Have BdrLine hail the town once we clear the flaks. I have some friends there.
*He addresses the crew.*
Keep my engines up! Shink, keep firing. PapaP on engines. Jun on hull. Hold your stomachs!
*He dove the Galleon towards the ground. Flak fire burst above them as they dodged the fire. A Howitzer hit the starboard engine but there was no turning back. Shink got a lucky shot on the goldfish and it fell onto one of the Galleons. The ensuing chaos bought just the time they needed to get out of Flak range. The Howitzer's would still go off until they too stopped. They werent pursuing.*
Thank our Dusty Mistress. Everyone in one piece?
Im good. Holy Flak that was too close.
My head is burning! Am i on fire??
*Jun'ko's hat had caught fire in the firefight. PapaP put it out for her.*
Must I do everything?! Watch out next time.
You kiddin' me? I saved your metal Ass from exploding into dust.
MY WHA....Look here miss prissy huggles over Zill all day, this is war. There's no place for scrawny....
ENOUGH!
*The crew goes silent. Zill's voice commanded attention and he certainly got it.*
I will not have that on my boat! Now get your ass downstairs Papa before I load you into that lumberjack. Jun.....Fix something.
*The silence is broken by radio static. Zill Hails Yiski.*
How are we?
