Burning Skies Saloon
BdrLineAzn:
--Diner--
As everyone continues eating their brunch and chatting with one another, BdrLine looms out of the window from time to time. Ny-Lee notices this and turns to him.
Ny-Lee
"Azn, anything wrong? You are usually not like this. I mean where's that weird, crazy, but loveable brother that I know?"
BdrLine shaken out of his trance by his sister looks towards her.
BdrLine
"I don't know Ny, maybe it just nothing. But don't worry about me, you know how I am, maybe thinking of another new idea. Besides let's just enjoy this, when was the last time we had a peaceful meal?"
Ny-Lee
"I guess you're right."
She turns back and continues eating and talking to her husband. But somehow inside, something is bothering her brother.
Yiski:
--Saloon--
Althea and Yiski arrive at the saloon, but there was no sign of anybody coming back. What Yiski did see were two guards and no Honeybadger or Dylan. Yiski sighed.
Yiski
"What happened?"
Guard
"Commander! Well, one of them hit me over the head with a chair."
Guard 2
"Not to worry. We apprehended them and sent to military holding."
Yiski
"Did you shoot them?"
Guard 2
"No Sir. We thought it best not to shoot them inside the saloon after it was cleaned."
Yiski
*Smiling* "Smart man. The two of you are dismissed and get some rest."
Althea
"Are things always this lively?"
Yiski
"Always."
The two walked inside to find a very clean, but empty main floor. Yiski rubbed the back of his head.
Yiski
"Well, guess I better start refurnishing the saloon."
As Yiski started to walk, his left leg had a sudden shot of pain. This caused him to become off balanced and fall over. Althea immediately came to his side, and helped him against the bar counter.
Althea
"I think we should wait for the others and have them place the orders."
Yiski
"Feh. Alright. Well, while we wait, how about a drink because I sure could use one."
Althea glared at him with an 'are you serious' expression. Yiski shrugged it off and proceeded to make himself a Frost Fire.
Honeybadger:
-Cell-
Honeybadger looks at Dylan and smiles
Dylan
"Ok, we're in. Now what?"
Honeybadager
"There was a guy who got away after the duel I was in. He's being held here for questioning."
Honeybadger reaches into his mouth and pulls out a key.
Honeybadger
"Now we just have to find him."
BdrLineAzn:
After a lovely brunch between the six of them. Everyone felt that it was time to leave and heck on Yiski. With Zill paying the bill, everyone got up and left for the saloon, where they assume that he will be there after the Council meeting. Om the way, BdrLine is still out of it in his thoughts.
BdrLine
It seems like everyone is finding someone. I mean Ny is married, both Zill and Yiski has girls. How about me? *sighs*
Ny-Lee was the only one who hears him, and turns to look back at him.
Ny-Lee
What is wrong with him?
Soon they arrive qt the saloon and enter.
Lauren
"Yiski we're back.... Where's all the furniture!?! And who is that?"
Yiski:
--Military Complex, Southern District--
Alarms are ringing and all soldiers are on high alert. Standard procedure dictates the whole complex goes on lockdown until the base captain lifts it.
Captain
"What's going on?"
Soldier
"It seems like two prisoners have escaped their cell."
Captain
"Do they have any standing orders?"
Yiski
"Apparently a few city guards had authorization to shoot them both from Commander Yiski."
Captain
"Well, if the order is from him, then we'll follow through."
The Captain went to PA system to give an announcement.
Captain
"Attention all soldiers. There are two prisoners on the loose inside the complex. Orders are to eliminate them with extreme prejudice. I repeat. Eliminate with extreme prejudice."
The Captain finishes the broadcast by giving the physical description of both Honeybadger and Dylan.
--Saloon--
Meanwhile, Lauren was shocked to see another woman who was entirely to close to her boyfriend. Even though she did notice her outfit and armaments, her impulsive personality took over and Lauren ran up to Yiski and glared at him.
Yiski
"Easy now. It's not what you think."
Lauren
"What? That the Council gave you a babysitter. Because that's what it looks like to me."
Yiski
*Surprised* "Well, actually... yeah, this is exactly what it is then."
Lauren
"What did you think I was thinking?"
Her glare got even more intense.
Yiski
"Nothing" *Forces a cough* "Anyways. Lauren. Althea, my bodyguard. Althea. Lauren, my..."
Lauren
"Girlfriend."
Despite the sudden hostility, Althea kept a calm stance.
Lauren
"I thought I kept a good eye on you."
Althea
"Apparently, not enough."
Lauren
"Excuse me?!"
Althea
"Had you kept an eye on him, you could have been able to prevent his abduction from yesterday."
Lauren
"That wasn't my fault."
Althea
"I realize that, but you seem to forget how much of a target the Commander has become to our enemies."
Yiski and everyone else could see this escalating quickly into a catfight. Yiski quickly got in between the two ladies.
Yiski
"Enough of this! I'm tired, sore, and beginning to develop a headache. Now, let's put this aside and get to what's important: Gettin' new furniture."
Yiski then turns to Ny-Lee and Roland.
Yiski
"Ny, Roland, you think you could get me the following?"
Yiski then makes a list of various tables, chairs, blinds, decorations, and, most importantly, a new couch. Ny-Lee and Roland head off to get the new furniture. This left Jun'ko, Zill, BdrLine, Yiski, and two very standoffish women.
Yiski
"This'll be a long night."
