Garian glared at them and didn't bother looking back at Brunerk as he pulled out his twin longswords and got into his fighting stance. He followed his father's teachings, let them make the first move and make it their last. He wasn't going to be outshown here, nor will he let these men get away with what they were doing.

You count up twenty men in total around the area. The microphone picks up basic chatter over the deal and general insults going back and forth. You manage to get closer and find a spot behind a pile of gravel to observe things from. The trade off seems to be going down soon and time to act is running out.


Time to multitask. Using her internal communications device Sirpa dials local emergency services and starts telling them about how she saw a gang shootout happening at the shipyard (using an internal device should mean there is no need to speak aloud). At the same time she starts analyzing the voice data she's already collected (and anything she can collect now on the fly) to replicate the timbre of one of the guards voices. Someone posted outside would be best, but she'd take what she could manage if they hadn't been talkative enough. While doing that she pulls a belt from her bag, and clips it around her waist before sliding the few magazines she'd brought for her weapon in its pockets. After pulling her machine pistol from the bag and scooping a handful of shotgun shells into the rightmost pocket of her belt, she discarded the bag altogether.

"Well, frak... You're hired. Ships mechanic! I think I'll call you Kaylee. The name seems appropriate for some reason.", Friday exclaims, "Now how am I going to tell the Historians that they can't have you anymore?", he ponders.

Sirpa
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

(15) the local police inform you that they appreciate the tip and are on the way. The deal progresses as the trade off starts with the briefcases and the sacked man being exchanged.

Garian
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

Most of them seem deterred by the terrifying presence behind them, but the one who called you out charges at you with an ax and dagger. (17) His attack seems flimsy as he lunges at you with the blades. You easily disarm the ax and impale him through the shoulder and stomach quickly pulling the blades out and letting his corpse drop to the ground. "They killed Benny! Let's get them!" the remaining criminals exclaimed as they got ready to charge you. Brunerk and his new men seem content to stay and keep the criminals from escaping. They leave the fight to you less you should otherwise request their aid.

Friday
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

"Wait what?" she exclaims "I never agreed to staying here. You are kinda cute and I appreciate you coming to the rescue, but I hardly know you" Katherina seems unaware if this was a joke or your actual plan.

She laid down to cuddle with Zen. The warmth of her body comforted her, and she would need that comfort. Tik-Tik always felt tense before starting a mission. The dread of risking her life loomed over her every time. But her dreams to see the universe kept her strong. And this time, she wouldn't be alone. Tik-Tik held Zen close, content to just lie there until they touched down on the planet.

Zen cuddled with you and held you tightly. Her tail eagerly wagging about against your hips. "Can't wait to start this first mission and see what it takes us" she says optimistically.

Tik-Tik agreed, fueled by Zen's optimism. She thought of the new world she would get to see. She thought of the adventure ahead of them, and of the payday that a awaited at the end. When they touched down on the planet, the bounty hunter got up and grabbed her equipment and clothes. She aided Zen with putting on her armor, though she made sure to cop a feel whenever possible. When they were finally ready, she grabbed Weech and made her way off the ship.

After having a hearty chuckle at Katherina's reaction Friday will say,"And here's another reason I'd want you onboard. You're easy to tease. But don't worry, I'm not going to kidnap you. Besides, Lorraine would never forgive me and I'd never get to see her glorious body unclothed ever again!", he'll say melodramatically, "That would be such a tragedy." He finishes with a mock dramatic pose.

"Anyhow, back to more important matters. You are correct, i haven't been able to properly maintain this ship. Would you mind helping me get it back into shape?"

The ship soon lands and from what you can see it is early morning with sunlight peering in against the bay doors of your ship. One click and you will be out on another strange new world

"I mean do I really have a choice?" Katherina ask with a faint laugh. "I've seen women and men both more attractive than your friend though don't get me wrong she is rather attractive" Katherina says adjusting the straps on the flight jacket.

Garian's first kill wouldn't be his last, the man was no skilled fighter but a mere thug as he came at him with the axe, his reach too long as he used one of his swords to disarm him of his axe, hitting the axe below it's blade to throw it into the air and then impaled the man with both his swords. WHen he pulled the swords out, he looked towards his next targets, sizing them up and readied to parry and kill the next one who attacks or even parry two attacks at once if need be.

Tik-Tik opened the door and stepped out into the world with her two friends. She looks around to see what the terrain is like, and if whether Weech landed them in a town or in the wilderness.

"She is quite attractive. Cute, spunky and determined. Not to mention a set of some of the nicest small breasts I've ever seen. What can I say but I have different tastes than some people.", he explains, "Anyhow, to answer your question. Yes, you do have a choice. You are allowed to say no. I'm just hoping you'll agree to help me fix this ship up. Not to mention it will help pass the time while we travel."

Tik-Tik
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

you open the gate to be greeted by blinding beads of light. When your eyes finally adjust you see the bustling sights of a massive city below. Looking around you find that you are in a hanger cove of a towering space port which overlooks the city below. Sky scrapers barley kiss the heights known by the spaceport. "Wow" Zen says easily capturing the sentiment of the moment

Friday
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

"there are other ways to pass time you know" she says easily leading your mind astray. "You're traveling with a former member of the Ralerin inner circle. Must be something you're curious about knowing if you really are a historian" she says pulling your mind back out of the gutter. You have to admit she has a point. Most people only know of the Ralerin empire through the sight of their chrome played war machine. Few ever find out about what evils lurk higher up in the empire.

Garian
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

two more of the thugs charge you one armed with a battle ax and the other two hatchets. (15) you manage to block the thrust from the battle ac and push the man back so you can block the two hatchets. You could finish off the one in front of you or go after the one you threw back though at this rate you'll have them down in no time

He looked at the two whom he had just defended against and attacked the closest one, the one he pushed back can wait until he was done with his friend. With a swing of one of his swords, he brought it down diagonally down the man's body, hoping to kill him there before turning towards the next one to kill.

(17,20) you manage to bring a slash across the man's chest effectively slaying him. The other tries to charge you, but you are too quick and manage to trick him into charging stomach first into your blade. With a kick of two he tumbles off of your blade and onto the ground his guts and blood spewing out. Three more prepare to charge you

Breathing heavily, but still not exhausted, adrenaline coursing through his veins, he looked up at the three charging at him and twirled his sword before getting back into his stance to parry and defend himself before cutting them down. They will not get away from him and he will not show them mercy just as he promised.

Tik-Tik could feel her amazement at such a large city. When she first left her planet, she stopped in what she thought was the largest city she'd ever seen. This dwarfed it by far. She found herself glued to the window as she tried to wrap her head around the height of the sky scrapers, and the vast area down below. It took Weech of all people to get her to focus long enough to remind her that she actually needed to head down into the chaotic urban wonder that she marveled. The bounty hunter started looking for an elevator or shuttle to take her party down to the surface below.

Tik-Tik
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

looking around you see a cylinder at the center of the building with several lifts. One is on the floor currently almost like a sign you were meant to come here.

Garian
Spoiler (click to show/hide):

the three lash out at you with pikes of all things. You have to wonder where these thugs find these weapons in all honesty. Drawing back to the fight you block their lunges with your blades and manage to pull one towards you while the other two keep their distance.

She gathered up her friends and made her way to the lift. She pressed the button for the bottom floor. As they went down, she proceeded to go over any information she could on her target. An unprepared bug is a dead bug.

Mulling over the information you recall that Evans is a young near middle aged man, green eyes, brown hair, and possibly hidden in the mountains to the north. Aside from that you're not sure where you should start for a lead
