Yiski:
--START OF DAY 5--

--NARRATOR--

BdrLine, Ny-Lee, Roland, Shink, and Paradox all woke up before the break of dawn and made their ways back to the dock. They could already see Jun'ko and Lance awake and coordinating a group of workers on where to take the supplies and to repairs.
Morning everyone! Sleep well.

Yes, and you?

Jun'ko smiled.
It was nice with my Admiral.

On the Then It Was Fixed, Zill sneezed.

As the preparations were almost finished a strange man approached the team which caused Lance to draw his weapon and then caused the team to draw theirs, except for BdrLine.
Easy everyone, that's Zankif.

Hell of a welcoming party.

We you able to get the other preparations completed?

Affirmative, I've got your fake passes here, and the escorts will rendezvous at Orlovselo. The escorts are two pyras, one goldfish, and two squids.

Well, if everything is set, let's move out quickly before light hits Orlovselo.

Everyone nodded and the team boarded their respective ships. As the team left Starostrog, Yiski called over the alt radio.
Thanks for the help Lance.

Anytime, just don't get yourself killed.

--NARRATOR END--

Shinkurex:
*Shink yawns and streches. It was one of the only times he could sleep without hearing Papa's snoring. As usual, Shink takes inventory over the ammo supply. Taking care not to open any ominous barrels that Zill may have lying around.*

"Shink! Stop that scurrying about! Giving me a headache"

"I tried to tell you that you had, had enough. Does anyone listen to good ole Shink? Nope.... This is what you get"

*Shink finishes up his inventory, and goes to check the weapons. As he walks onto the gun deck, he notices a blinking red light.*

"BOMB!"

*Shink tears the device off of the bulkhead, and chucks it out of gun port just in time. The subsequent explosion damaged a bit of the armor, but nothing Papa couldn't fix. A little rattled, Shink grabs a flask of WSW he was saving for a rainy day and chugged it*

RearAdmiralZill:
-Then It Was Fixed-

*The explosion threw the boat nearly into M'Naghten. Shrapnel was all over the port side, but amazingly no one was hit. The radio static hit Zill followed by Yiski's voice.*
The Hell was that?!?

Apparently our friend isnt as friendly as we thought, or the Guild knew we were coming.

Lance wouldnt do that. Someone must of survived that blockade.

Most likely. Keep a watch up. Someone would of heard....

*Just then Zill caught a Squid in the corner of his eye. His spyglass confirmed it was flying away. It had Guild emblems on the balloon.*
Guild knows we're here.

*A long silence passes before Yiski responds.*
Moonshine?

Aye.

*They floor it to Orlovselo. Zill makes a pass with the crew to make sure they were all alright.*

Yiski:
--M'Naghten--

By the burning skies, a bomb on Zill's ship.

*Yiski yells down to the others*
Everyone, check the supplies and make sure there's not a similar "gift" on board.

*Roland and Ny-Lee head bellow deck and checks the recent supplies, leaving BdrLine to man all the engines.*
According to Shink, there should be a blinking red light.

*Minutes pass during the search.*
Anything?

Nothing so far.

*Ten minutes pass by and Yiski decides to call off the search.*
Alright, stop lookin' for it. If we had one too, it would've gone off the same time Zill's did.

*Eventually, the team found themselves within sight of Orlovselo.*
BdrLine, call your man and tell him we're near Orlovselo. We'll need to identify our escorts.

BdrLineAzn:
--M'Naghten--

*After checking the engines a final time, BdrLine goes over to the radio and dial in Zankif*

BdrLine to Zankif, you read me? We are nearing Orloveslo. Where are our escorts located?

*Static is heard, until Zankif voice comes up*
Yeah I hear ya. Alright the escorts will be flying a perimeter around the west of the city. Basically If you keep your heading, you'll see them in a formation.

Do they have any markings on them?

Yes they should have my logo on them. It's a wrench and a bullet round in a cross with a cog background

And one more thing. As we left port, one of our ships had a bomb planted on them. We suspect the Guild military is on to us. You think you can diverge their attention? We have enough already with these Birdmen.

Hmm, I'll see what I can do. it's going to be tough to acres the militay radios. But i do what I can.

Thanks Zankif.

*Static comes upon the radio as they disconnect the connection*

*BdrLine turns to Yiski*
Alright we should see the group flying around in a formation as we near. They should all have a wrench and bullet round in a cross on top of a cog
