Searching high and low, Slanger could not find his way to the deck in the huddled masses of the passengers. Retracing his steps to area he was before, he noticed from the corner of his eye that the pirate still stood there vigilant with the small child by his side "Excuse me sir, I'm lost, could you help?" Slanger began the conversation.

"Actually miss, I quite like the sound of a storm." Zoom said politely, as she turned towards Ty, before seeing the apporaching Fallow norn. "HI!" she shouted, making the passangers around her wince. "Sure....he cna help. I just realized, I don't know your name. Or yours. Or yours. Or yours." she said turning and pointing at anyone and everyone who was around her

Slanger looked at the hyperactive norn with dismay, not quite sure what to make of his mannerisms. Crouching to his level, he spoke "I'm Slanger, who are you?" He tried to sound polite, as he found people were much more hospitable when you were polite.

Yaris slammed her fist down on the railing and turned to the group. "SERIOUSLY." she yelled. "SHUT. UP. Or are we planning on having a full out bash party on deck before we leave? Do you have to be TALKING all the time? NO." She then turned back to the railing and continued looking out at the sea. ((ASPLOSION. . Gods, Yaris is so touchy, it's fun.))

Wincing at Yaris's yelling Zoom muttered, "Sheesh someone's in a grump." Turning back to Slanger she gave him a toothy grin. "My name's Zoom. And somewhere around here is my au pair Josh."

((Sorry about the wait. D8 And also sorry about the short post.
Spray, I would recommend you pay at least some attention to your grammar - I'm not in the mood to go through and edit out all the typos. Other than that, it's nice to see someone else is taking an interest in this.))
Aiofa had finally finished erecting her little workplace out on the main deck. In addition to the telescope, there was also a desk, covered with notebooks filled with star charts and planet movements. Her actual office was somewhere down below, so if it happened to be stormy out she could just work down there.
Suddenly, a loud foghorn blared out. The doors closed, and the Hydra lurched forwards. It was time - finally time to take off. A smile crossed the Magma bengal's face.
This trip shall be most interesting.... she thought, as she turned away to head for the dining area in search of something to eat, taking note of the fact that the deck had turned into quite the crowd. -------
The movement of the ship caused the barrel of apples Ravana was digging into to tilt over and spill out all over the floor.
Halting quickly, the grendel looked around, wondering if anyone heard the racket that made. But when nobody moved, he finished off another apple, and then turned to look for an answer to a better question: How the heck was he supposed to get out of the Cargo hold?
Getting out of this room was easy enough - he merely had to shove open the door and walk out into the main area. But where to go from here was beyond his knowledge....

Chengo bristled at Yaris' shout, baring his teeth and closing his scarred eyelid. It made him look scarier, but he didn't do it on purpose. It was a habit. "Well, I'm in the kind of mindset to-" Tylrande glared at him. "Chengo! Stabbing people is rude and uncivilised!" Chengo muttered under his breath and turned to Slanger. "If you're lost, there's maps stuck up on the walls around the ship. I'm not sure where the nearest one is, though." At that he edged away, trying to escape his aggravated cousin Tylrande.

((Oh man, I just noticed that I've only posted once in the actual RP. Gah I'm such a silly hypocrite. xDDDDD Sorry gaiz, ILUtho.))
"Eep!" Eddaeck squeaked as she fell when the ship lurched forward. Skye stuck her arms out to the side to steady herself. After that was over, they both decided to stop randomly wandering around the ship and went on to visit the deck.
As they wandered up to the deck, Eddaeck nearly squealed at the sight; more people! Someone to share her inedible barnacle sandwiches with! She just couldn't contain her excitement. It was when she began to run forward that Skye grabbed her shoulder, pulling her back. "Edd, please stay calm, this is no place to randomly spazz out." "Skye?" "Yes?" "Where are we going?" "I really don't know. Anywhere but where we were before is good in my book." She stepped over to the railings, hands on hips, not really looking at anything in particular. "I just want to get out there. I can't stay in one place for so incredibly long, you know. All my life I've wanted to travel..." She continued to just stand there, looking almost dazed now. Eddaeck just shrugged and took a look around the deck, looking for someone interesting to talk to; Skye was beginning to get boring.

(Sorry Grendel Man :( )
Slanger felt sorry for the small norn his youthfull eyes brought much sadness about him. "Come, We'll find your Au Pair, he'll be here somewhere" Said Slanger his outstretched arm signaling For zoom to hold. This childs matters were more important than simple wondering. "Coming?" he questioned his eye brows lifted

Eventually, Yaris got bored with staring out. She heard the blast of the foghorn and looked up. The Hydra was about to leave.
Quickly, she pushed herself away from the railing and looked around. She could see other people wandering about the deck. She wondered what she was supposed to do.
She looked around until she saw Chengo. Unaware that this was the bengel whom she had upset, she walked over and asked "Excuse me, but what exactly am I supposed to do? I'm the ship's technician."
((-_-))

Slanger stood for a few silent moments, his hand outstretched. It seemed like minutes, "well?" he asked again. However something caught his eye, something he had thought he left behind. Slanger stood rigid unable to speak. A rush of fear and anger came over him. He froze to the spot...

((Sorry!))
Zoom bit her lip as she looked at the out stretched hand. Sighing she took hold of it and nodded; she might as well return to Josh as she was getting bored. "What's wrong?" she asked as she saw him freeze

Slanger had not tme to explain hastily he flung zoom onto his back in a sort of piggy-back ride position as not to alarm the young infant. "Let's go" he said trying to conceal his fear. Slanger began to think were would an au pair be?. This came to little avail. "do you have any idea where he is?" he questioned

Yaris walked up to Chengo and tapped him roughly on the shoulder.
"Excuse me, are you deaf?" she asked. "What the hell am I supposed to be doing? Fixing something? Checking something? HELLO?"
((I feel kinda bad. I just reread the posts I made in the second part of the Creatures Porodium. D:))

"Try the front deck. Maybe the captin can tell you where to go." Zoom yelled to Yaris as Slanger lifted her onto his back. "And maybe he's in the cabins. Really you don't need to carry me, I've got my own two legs. And I'm fast." she added

Chengo turned to face the Draconian, eyeing her glumly. "Technician huh? Well, you've got a fairly easy job. All you have to do is check the running parts of the ship, especially the engines, and fix 'em if they break." He ran a hand through his hair tiredly. Confronting Tylrande always wore him out. "I'm Chengo, hired mercenary. I'll be on the front line if the ship gets attacked, which is quite likely. Pirates won't be able to resist a ship this size." He gave a slightly sly grin. "I ought to know how their minds work, being one myself."

"Pirate?"
Yaris stared at Chengo, seeing the scars, the battle wounds, everything. She narrowed her eyes, backing away, shaking her head. Then, when she was a certain distance away, she turned and ran back to the lower areas, slamming the door as she went.
"Mavis! Mavis!"
Yaris jumped the stairs two at a time, rushing down to the ship's underground. She turned the corner and ran until she found Mavis's hanging cot, where she lay asleep.
"WAKE UP!" yelled Yaris, pushing the cot over. Mavis thumped out of the cot and scrambled to her feet.
"Geez cousin, what's gotten you?" asked Mavis.
"There's a PIRATE on board!" said Yaris, pointing upward. "I just asked this one norn what my duties were as a technician, and he told me and all, but then he told me he was a PIRATE."
"What'd he look like?" asked Mavis.
"Bengal, lots of scars, generally unpleasent." said Yaris, shrugging. "What does that matter? The point is, there's a pirate running this operation!"
"I've heard about this sort of thing." said Mavis. "They hire pirates to help onboard because of their.... good navigation skills I believe? But they're usually reformed, or mostly reformed pirates. I wouldn't worry."
Mavis yawned and climbed back into her bunk. Yaris glared at her.
"You won't be saying that WHEN HE CUTS YOUR THOAT." said Yaris. She then marched off into the bowels of the ship.

In all the fear Slanger had failed to realise what he was doing. After walking a few paces in the suggested direction of the cabin, Slanger lowered the small norn. "i'm realy sorry for that" He said awkwardly. Slanger knew what he had seen but it was no reason for alarming others especialy as he knew they wanted him. "so... What's your buisiness om this ship?" he asked zoom trying to start a converstaion.

Just before Aiofa disappeared below deck, she took one last glance at the deck. One norn - who appeared to be a fallow - was spazzing about...something, but before she could see the rest of it, some draconian ran past, nearly running the Magma Bengal over.
"Hey! Watch it!" she snarled, but the draconian was gone before she even opened her mouth. Which brought up the question: What was she so rushed for?
She turned back, her eyes finally settling on a certain battle-scared bengal. When she did, something about him made her feel...uneasy, to say the least. However, perhaps he knew a thing or two about this ship....
She turned around and approached him, taking note of the fact that it was beginning to get late.
"Excuse me, sir. Would you happen to know where the dining hall is?" she asked of Chengo. ------
As Ravana looked around the main chamber, it didn't take him long to see the catwalk high above him. That, he guessed, was where he was supposed to go. But, how to get up there....
His question was answered suddenly when a pair of norns, obviously down here to collect food supplies, opened a previously hidden door on the other side of the room.
Quickly, the grendel looked around, trying to find a place to hide. Too late - they noticed him. The two gasped, dropped whatever they were carrying, and turned right back around to perhaps alert the rest of the ship of his presence.
Well, no way he was going to let that happen. With one swift motion, he cast a disc that appeared to be made of ice mixed with energy in one norn's direction. It homed in, and when it made contact it made no visible wound, but the norn fell dead in an instant.
His partner saw what happened, but instead of running was transfixed with fear, only able to stare as Ravana thundered towards him.
The grendel halted right in front of the norn, and then grasped his throat and hoisted him into the air. "Don't think you're getting away scot-free now." he snarled, before dropping the norn and slicing his throat open with a single slash of his spear.
Snorting, Ravana then turned around and proceeded to climb the stairs past the door. Before too long, his mission would be accomplished....

"I'm not really sure. My parents just disappeared one day, leaving me with Josh. They left instructions to come aboard this voyage and continue from here." Zoom said with a shrug before looking up at the taller norn she asked, "what's your story?"
