@Crimson Lion"Hmmm?" The old man coughed while Rainer was doing his legs. "Ugh! Erggy." He sputtered, trying to force whatever it was in the back of his throat out, but he couldn't. It was in too deep so he settled for swallowing it whole. "Ahh." He shivered with the action. It was difficult to tell if he found pleasure or revulsion from the lump.
"Plmt plmp." He smacked his dry lips, and looked around. The room was as he had left it, an engine room with an engine that wasn't on fire. Which was a plus. "Hmmm?" His head tilted to the side as he came to understand that there was something different now. He looked to his left, which still had a door, and he looked to his right which didn't. The engine was in front of him, and he didn't feel any ocean breezes so there was still a wall behind him. "What's it now?" He mumbled, and tried to get up. He couldn't, and it wasn't because of his back or legs this time. Which would've been a plus had the reason been anything else but knots keeping him down with a strange, covered man doing his feet.
"What's this now?" He croaked. His voice was dusty and it seemed out of character for a stray moth to not float out of his mouth, rushing for dear life to get as far away from the stench as possible. "Who're you and what're planning on doing down there with my legs?"
@Noodles"Right this way!" The young marine repeated for the dozenth time, after only a few meters of running. "The captain's right this way." He barreled past several marines, all looking confused as they watched Janet pass by, and he would've continued doing if not for the older marine figuring something was off, and clothes lining the man right in the Adam's apple.
"What the hells going on now, Jack!" The marine wasn't much taller than Boomer's escort, but he was a great deal wider, with the kind of muscles that came from good genes, a bad attitude, and a rough lesson. "Who've you got there?"
"Frank!" Jack said, and his brain took a miniature vacation. "I'm glad we found you." He raised up Janet's hand, which he managed to hold on to somehow. "The intruder's on the boat. I'm sure of it this time." He pointed at Janet. "She saw it too." Sitting up, the young marine, Jack, motioned for Janet to say what she saw.
The bull of a marine sighed. "Jack, god damn it." He pointed at the woman. "Look at her! She's an intruder"
@Shiyonichi"Of course." Abbygail sighed, pinching the bridge of her nose. She didn't know why she did it when she was thinking, but it helped, at least she felt like it helped. At the very least, it didn't hurt, she hoped. Frowning, with the knowledge that an infinite loop was on its way, she opened her eyes and shoved her hands into her jacket pockets before they were able to do any real harm. "Cutting people about does that to a person, doesn't it." Sighing she looked down to try figuring things out with the floor's help.
"Hey! What're you doing!?" The beaten marine snapped as Red-Eyes put her hands on him and started undoing his clothing. "If something happens to our outfits, it." He paused at the sight of the woman's raised fist. "Fine." He groaned, defeated. The woman wasn't very big, but she hit like a woman who was very big, and he would know. Both his parents were marines, and she was the one that you didn't want to get smacked by. "Have your way, but I won't enjoy it!" This was a lie to, but with another marine so close by he had to make sure he kept the bravado and resistance up, at least to a point.
By the time the swordswoman was done changing she turned to see Abbygail on a chair, leaning towards her, with the kind of grin most only saw at shows that involved poles, beautiful women, and old rich men who couldn't afford to have them any other way. "What?" Abbygail blinked before sighing in disappointment. That was quick. She would've asked for more, but before she could, Red-Eyes was already leaping over towards the other ship.
Thanks to Geppo, Abbygail didn't land too far behind Red-Eyes. She could've overtaken her, but the view of the woman's long legs was too much of a temptation, even for the former marine.
"Hey!" A voice called from the boat. "Look over there." Judging from the sounds going on the marine ship, apparently someone had noticed Janet. "Are those the intruders everyone keeps talking about?"
"I don't know." Another voice said. "Just be ready to arrest them when they land. "
@grandia20A lone marine, unsure of where he left his shoe, burst out of his quarters, and rushed around, trying to retrace his steps from the previous evening. In doing so he noticed a young woman, with something in her hands that obviously didn't belong to her.
"Hey!" He called, putting his hand on the handle of his cutlass. "What do you think you're doing with that!"
