Burning Skies Saloon
Yiski:
--Saloon--
*Roland looks to Shink*
From what Sund told us last night, Zill, Yiski, and the captured bounty hunter are over at Doctor Oliver's place. Doctor says Yiski's fine, but I'm more worried about what's going to happen to the bounty hunter.
Anyways, do you need a drink Shink?
*Roland thinks to himself. Roland was one of the few people (Zill being another) who know what Yiski did after his time with the Baronies' Military and before the saloon.*
I'm not sure how many people alive realize Yiski was the Crimson Bolt. If this is what yesterday was about, I don't see this ending well... ... for those after Yiski.
Shinkurex:
*thinks for a bit*
"No thanks Roland. I'm going to head over to Oliver's."
*Heads out the door and takes a left... thinks about it for a minute, and then turns around and goes right. Muttering under his breath*
"Furry.....hammer....."
RearAdmiralZill:
+ooc+
I am at Oliver's of course.
+end ooc+
*Zill puts the new "friend" in the middle of the basement floor on a lone chair. A barrel of tar delivered early in the morning in preparation sits in the corner. A pot filled with some sits on the old boiler in Oliver's basement, boiling. Zill has done interrogations before, but none quite so personal. He told Oliver to stay out, and let no one in.
Zill knew he had to keep him alive just long enough to get the information he needed. He made Oliver leave the "friend's" wounds unattended. Blood dripped slowly onto the ground beneath the chair. This was not going to end pretty. He slaps the man in the face to get things going. With Zill unmasked, the sight startles the man.*
Whoa! Where am I?!? Whats going on and whats that smell?!
*Zill gives him a good punch in the gut for good measure.*
You ask nothin' in this room. I am your nightmare for today. You answer me. What is your name?
*The "friend" looks around, squirming in the chair. He sees the tar and immediately answers.*
M...my name is...Skinner.
*Zill paces in front of Skinner.*
We already know you are a Head Hunter. Tell me why you came yesterday.
*Skinner slowly replies.*
W...well, we were here to collect a bounty on Y...Yiski. Take him alive and deliver. The reward would put us in retirement. Realizing you were here as well, we knew that would only double our profit by killing you.
*Zill stands over Skinner*
Who placed the bounty on Yiski?
*Skinner stutters.*
I..I dont kn...know.
*Zill immediately heads for the boiling pot, picks it up, and dumps it on Skinner's lap. The resulting scream could wake a man in a coma. Zill refills the pot and places it back on the boiler without hesitation. He then stands in front of Skinner, who is smoking from the hot tar.*
Who placed the bounty on Yiski?
*Skinner, weeping at this point from the searing pain, tries to respond.*
I..I...They...They are from up.....North....I....think. The writing looked...very clear.
*Zill realizes it must be from The Baronies. The scientists would love to get their hands on Yiski's experiments. It also explained why the Hunters didnt just storm the warehouse with numbers. They needed him alive for the secrets.*
Give me a name.
*Skinner looks around*
The pap...er..had no.....
*Zill then dumps a second pot over Skinner's shoulders. The scream would make any man quiver. Zill's resolve remained the same. The end was close. Skinner mutters something....*
The del...ivery point......Snowpeak.
*That was good enough for Zill. He lifts Skinner, still bound to the chair, and dumps him head first into the tar barrel. The cries fell on deaf ears, as skinner quickly drowns in the tar. Zill opens the door and locks it behind him. He turns around to see Oliver staring at him.*
You heard nothing. You saw nothing. My men will clean the basement. The barrel will go to Snowpeak. *Casting a glace at Yiski in the next room* He wont need to worry anymore for awhile. *Oliver only nods.*
*Zill goes past Oliver and sits in the corner next to Yiski. The tar on his coat burns, but it will never scar as much as the past days.
Shinkurex:
--Street Outside Oliver's house--
*Hears a bone chilling scream, and double-times it to Oliver's front door... pounding on the door*
"Yiski! Zill!"
*Breaks down the door, and surveys the seen before him. Zill is discussing something with Oliver over by the door to the basement*
"what's going on here? Yiski OK?"
BdrLineAzn:
Saloon
*BdrLineAzn walks in with his rifle slinger over his shoulder*
*Walks up to Roland*
*heavy sigh* I just came from the docks to look at the damage from yesterday's encounter. *takes a seat* Looks like none of the other dock workers were killed, frighten with minor injuries but not dead. A few airships have taken damage, Zill's having the most. Also besides Yiski, the other casualties were of the Hunters, at least 13 dead excluding the one we found.
*lays his head on the bar*
You think you can make one of them Frost Fire Ale? Kinda need it
