[Crashed Airship] Rikku stepped back, looking a bit afraid. She had gotten in slightly over her head... by which she had gotten in WAY over her head... really there was only one way out of this situation. “................... Okay, maybe I was a little hasty in attacking you........... BUT YOU NEED ME! You want to get back to Hydron, right? Well, there's a group of incredibly dangerous bandits that patrol in this area! As it happens, I have it good in with them, and I can convince them not to kill you guys....... in exchange for a small finder's fee.” […] Sama rubbed his neck. His glove was torn up from the wall, but he decided not to worry about it for the moment. He looked in at the group in the new room, and gasped. “Mr. Stark!” “Oh, hey Sama. Good, your survived the crash. Crystal too! Great, I could use a few good engineers to help.” Stark seemed pleasant enough. “... This is Jimi, Galv and Melanie. They seem like good kids. Jimi thinks I'm a thief, so I don't really like him.” Stark was chatty when he was buzzed. Sama sighed. “Err... nice to meet you guys. Can we go now?” |

Crashed airship “................... Okay, maybe I was a little hasty in attacking you........... BUT YOU NEED ME! You want to get back to Hydron, right? Well, there's a group of incredibly dangerous bandits that patrol in this area! As it happens, I have it good in with them, and I can convince them not to kill you guys....... in exchange for a small finder's fee.” A way without violence? A way, perhaps, to secure their safe passage without a shot fired? Didymus had to act before some hot-headed aristocrat ruined this, and he slowly stepped forward. "Set down your weapons and step forward, and we'll talk. If you relinquish your weapons, we will not harm you." |

-Crash Airship- Jimi frowned, moving past Crystal and Sama as they appeared, determined to find help for the trapped kid. Galv paused, holding Melanie's hand tightly now. “Ummm...Someone's trapped!” Galv said, pointing to where Aiden was trying (and rather unsuccessfully), to move the large support beam keeping her friend pinned. “Be my guest,” Ethan said to Kanna, giving the woman a grin, “I find going through their back a bit easier, but then you don't get to see their face...” Then Rikku mentioned paying her, to help get across the desert. “I suppose we could pay you,” Gallic said, “But as it is, we don't exactly have a lot of cash on us. If you help escort us back to the city, I'm sure we can reward you...” Jimi appeared, by Jason and Maize. “Hey, you two!” Jimi yelled, “Some kid's trapped under a heavy beam, he needs help...Oh great, someone else with a gun...” He sighed looking over at Rikku. “Oh my, they are?” Maize said, “I better go help.” Maize was a rather short girl in a poofy dress...And she'd be able to lift that steel beam. |

[Crashed Airship] Sama frowned as Galv mentioned someone was trapped. He didn't hesitate for a second. “Then what are we standing around for? Come on!” He ran down the hall to where Aiden was trying to move the beam and bent down beside her. “I think I can help...” He grabbed hold of the beam with his automail arm and threw his back into it, trying to move it with all of his might. […] “Someone is trapped?” Red frowned, looking to Jimi. “... If they are hurt, I can help.” […] Rikku did not put her weapon down, but she did clip the oversized machine gun to her belt. “Great! Then listen up... to get through the desert safely, you'll need a guide, someone who knows these dunes, and can barter with the bandits. That's me. If you go on your own... well, I hope you have a lot of extra ammo!” Rikku sang this in a cheerful voice. |

Crashed airship When Rikku put away her weapon, Didymus lowered his. “Great! Then listen up... to get through the desert safely, you'll need a guide, someone who knows these dunes, and can barter with the bandits. That's me. If you go on your own... well, I hope you have a lot of extra ammo!” "We can see Hydron from here, I kind of thought that it would be a relatively straightforward process of making our way there and fighting off bandit attacks...but I suppose I can see the value of a guide..." he said. "...and you sound awfully cheery for someone who lives out here, tried to hold us up, and was just threatened with death several times and is STILL talking of dangerous busniess. I'm not sure exactly what everyone here wants to do, but again, I suppose a guide would be appreciated..." |

Crashed Airship Many people had been separated after the crash, due to the airship's immense size combined with the impact of the crash. Spoony was worried about Sophie, though. So much so that he had been using his teleportation to look around for her. Not many people had been paying attention to him, though, as they were still in shock over the wreck. Though, if someone happened to be paying attention, that could be interesting for the story later on. Spoony had been thinking to himself, "I shouldn't have gotten her involved in this. She was just an innocent bystander! But... I wanted her to come along and keep my company, because she was so much more interesting than any of the people I usually talk to. I'm responsible for what may have happened to her... but, no! I can't think like that! I know she's okay. She has to be..." After a bit of searching, Spoony finally found Sophie, who was unconscious on the sandy desert floor. "Sophie... SOPHIE?!", Spoony exclaimed, as he ran over to her. He dropped down to his knees and picked her up, "Sophie... are you okay? Please say something..." -- Meanwhile, Rock was with Roll. I can't think of what to have him do, so I'll just leave this part up to GS. |

Crashed Airship Sophie had been out of it for quite awhile, the sudden crash leaving the girl with a nice bump on the head. Luckily she would be fine once she woke up... "Sophie... are you okay? Please say something..." With a little groan Sophie started to stir, her eyes opening slowly to adjust to the light. She looked up at Spoony, studied him for a moment, and then suddenly bolted up (knocking foreheads with him in the process). "Gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah" The girl cried out, clutching her head and wincing. "Dumb dumb dumb" [...] Kanna looked pissed looking to Rikku "So does this mean I can't shoot her in the face or cut out her spleen....Geez, you all are so unfair..." [...] Crystal just watched from the sidelines, as she wasn't particularly strong. Melanie did the same. Perhaps she would have been able to help with her own powers but Kanna had made it an important rule NEVER to let anyone see them. Ever. So Melanie just watched, biting her lip. |

Crashed Airship As Sophie bumped her head with Spoony's, Spoony instinctively used his hands to rub his forehead. "Gah! Ow ow ow!" Of course, this also meant he had dropped Sophie, in the process. Spoony then looked at the girl and said, "Ah! Sorry! Are you alright, Sophie?" |

-Crashed Airship- “Move aside...” Maize said, appearing by the beam now, Jimi leading her back. Maize looked at the beam, then grabbed hold, lifting it up slowly at first, not wanting to bring more falling down on the others. “I may not be as strong as my dad, but I'm a lot stronger then most anyone else...” Maize grinned. Having super strength could be advantageous. Jimi sighed, happy the kid was being helped, then went and looked for Stark again... “We'll get home soon Colette, don't worry...” Hammah said, standing up, absentmindedly dusting off the dress he was in. He wished he could just bring his sister home, or that his parents were still alive. They'd know what to do! “Relax,” Ethan said to Kanna, “If you need to burn off energy later, I'm sure I could help.” He paused, realizing he was somewhat flirting with this woman. He hadn't done that in years... “We should do whatever gets us the less violence,” Samuel said, “So, paying a guide isn't that bad...” “I will pay whatever is needed,” Gallic volunteered, “So that the military won't have to.” |

[Crashed Airship] “Straightforward? Oh boy, you guys from inside the wall really don't know anything... hahaahha!” The desert is full of pit traps... you step in the wrong place, and you fall into a deep pit, where you'll be trapped. You need a guide to keep your aristocratic buddies from dying.” “I will pay whatever is needed,” Gallic volunteered, “So that the military won't have to.” Rikku was now standing in front of Gallic and grinning. “It's very nice ta meetcha!” […] “... Excuse me. You have got to be the most violent woman I have ever met. My name is Rica, nice to meet you.” He grinned to Kanna. […] Sama was a bit skeptical as this girl appeared and shoved the two of them to the side, but he supposed anything was possible, and he knew better than to judge someone by looks alone. He took a step back, and hoped that this would be enough to help the trapped kid. […] Stark, meanwhile, had taken off his pants. … And had replaced them with odd metal pants he had crudely fashioned together. “Oh, hey kid.” He waved to Jimi. “Care to help me with my shirt?” …...... No comment. |

The desert is full of pit traps... you step in the wrong place, and you fall into a deep pit, where you'll be trapped. You need a guide to keep your aristocratic buddies from dying.” "Hm." Didymus let out. "I had hoped that that wasn't the case, but I suppose I can't say I'm really surprised to hear it...I suppose a guide could be quite useful then..." When Gallic offered Rikku payment, he shuffled over to Alice. "Malvin, give me a reminder here...are we supposed to try to prevent this kind of "ransom", or is it okay if we just let a corporate head make this deal...?" |

Mad Scientist / Head of Intel Division

Crashed Airship [Engineering] The heavy beam was lifted upwards by a girl of all people, and Riley quickly scampered out from underneath the rubble, finally revealing himself. He was a bit beat up, and his clothing was ripped in several places, but he didn't look extremely damaged and didn't seem to have any broken or twisted extremities. "Whew! Thanks! I was wondering when someone could get something to get me out from under there!" He looked sadly at his hat before throwing it aside, running a hand through his wild, brown hair and then sighing, holding his hand out for a handshake. "Thanks for getting me out! I'm Riley. No last name, just Riley the Tinkerer." |

Crashed Airship Kanna looked over to Rica, raising a brow at the strange man. "I'm Kanna...." she answered, though not too interested...She only pretended to be when there was something in it for her... "Wait.....I know who you are...You own a company right? With your friend...Brother...Cousin...Something like that...Him!" And suddenly Kanna was interested. She eyed Rica and Ethan....This would be interesting. "It's very nice to meet both of you..." Well if they were stuck in the desert she might as well make some business connections right? [...] Sophie groaned again, looking to Spoony who was equally in pain "I'm okay.....Just a little...Headache" she managed as she began to look around. "....What happened?" [...] Colette sniffled a bit, looking around. "Can we find a way hooooome?" she asked "Maybe a train or something! Do they have trains out here?" Colette had never been on the other side of the wall before. |

[Crashed Airship] [Outside] Alice shrugged her shoulders. “Personally, I find the idea of paying someone to 'escort' us to a place that's within our visible radius ridiculous... especially someone who tried to rob us... but at the same time, we're in no position to override someone like Gallic... he's one of the most powerful men in Hydron.” She shook her head. “If he wants to throw his money away, we can't stop him... we can only make sure nobody kills him, or the others.” […] Rica chuckled a bit and bowed to Kanna in his over the top, sweeping style. “Pleasure to meet you. Indeed, Ethan and I are the co-owners of R&V Industries.” [Engineering] Once Riley had been freed, Sama let out a sigh of relief. “It's good to meet you Riley... but we should really get outside as soon as we can. This ship could fall apart at any minute...” |

Crashed airship Didymus paused, and listed to Alice. "I can't say I'm entirely comfortable with how things tend myself..." he said. “If he wants to throw his money away, we can't stop him... we can only make sure nobody kills him, or the others.” "Hmm...frankly, I'm not sure how surprised I'd be if he tries to work some sort of deal out with her that involves something illegal or immoral..." he whispered to her. "...but hopefully that's just paranoia. Anyway...alright. So we let them work that out, and then we go from there, perhaps...even if it IS ridiculous to have her guide us to Hydron, she'll hopefully be able to ward off bandit attacks, and that counts for something." |
