| Gunner Drifter Banned (Not really) Not Immortal 6/23/2006 11:15:20 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 58 | Flight Problems Gunner was adrift in his VZ48 Hunter as usual, no real destination in mind, when suddenly, he was flagged by an unmarked 556A Coyote that he hadn't picked up on his radar. Gunner sighed and accepted the incoming transmission. His screen lit up. ???: I have my ions charged and ready to fire upon you. Follow me back to my station. Now. Gunner sighed. Pirates. That explains the radar jammer. Gunner wished yet again that he still had weapons on his hunter. Gunner flagged the pirate. Gunner: I've got some problems with my thrusters and they overheat a lot. Stay behind me and I'll be able to move again in a minuter or two. Gunner cut the transmission and grabbed the emergency helmet. He put it on and sealed it on his flight suit. "This is getting old..." He ignored a flag from the pirate and punched the emergency release button. The dome on his Hunter popped loose. He grabbed his double beam saber, attached the safety rope, lifted the dome just enough to squeeze through, and crawled onto his ship. He crawled along until he could see the underside of the pirate's coyote. He jumped and driftedtowards it. He landed on it, stood up, walked along the bottom of the ship (The magnets in his flight boots helped here) until he go to the emergency maintenance hatch. He kneeld by it, openede it up, shoved the double beam saber inside, and activsated it. He could hear the pirate's panicked screams as all his sytems failed. Gunner deactivated the saber and pulled it out. followed the line back to his ship, climbed back inside, shut the dome, removed his helmet, ignored the distress beacon the pirate had sent out, kicked his hyperdrive on, and zoomed away. |
| Short Billy Gold Captain and Crew of the Frozen Chicken Pirate Dominion Master 7/10/2006 1:17:41 AM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 21 | RE: Flight Problems Gunner is suddenly pulled out of hyperspace near the Sunset space colony. He groans. He looks to his right and sees a very odd sight indeed--a rickety wooden galleon with its masts sawn off and a clear dome spanning its entire deck. Gunner: That... has got to be the strangest thing I've ever seen. His radio suddenly crackles quite loudly. A voice can be heard through the excessive hissing. In the background of all that is the sound of fire and a howling dog. Voice: Yarr... This be Short Billy Gold. I be a pirate. I pulled ye out of hypersea with me now-burning hypersea suction device--GET THAT FIRE OUT, MR. MOZART!--Shut down ye engines an' prepare to be boarded. Rolling his eyes at the obvious lack of competence on the part of the pirate, Gunner presses the send button and begins speaking. Gunner: I am in a one-seater fighter with no armament or anything of value. I cannot be boarded and have nothing of worth. There is an awkward silence. Short Billy: Uhh... I know ye be foolin'. Quit yer shenanigans an' shut down ye engines! To Gunner's left, a large, sleek cruiser appears seemingly out of nowhere. Gunner's ship is drawn toward it. Lights dim and some go out entirely as energy is sucked from the ship. Gunner figures he's caught in a tractor beam from the cruiser. He opens a channel with the cruiser. Gunner: What's the big idea? After a moment, a female voice speaks. Female Voice: This is the captain of the Red Water. You are being pulled in for salvage. Gunner recognizes the name "Red Water." It's one of the most infamous pirate ships in the galaxy. Short Billy Gold begins screaming at the captain of the Red Water, but Gunner is still picking up the signal. Short Billy: ARR! CURSED woman! This be my haul! Gunner is trying to get his systems working. The female voice from before can be heard chuckling. Female Voice: My dear Short Billy Gold. I didn't see you there. How nice to run into you this fine hour. Short Billy: Arr, we'll see if ye'll think the same after I've blasted ye a good bit! Mr. Mozart, fire when ready! A dog yip can be heard in the background. An old-fashioned iron-forged cannon muzzle protrudes from the side of Short Billy's galleon. Nothing more occurs. Short Billy: What's happening?! Fire! FIRE! The dog can be heard wimpering. Short Billy: It won't ignite?! The female voice is giggling nearly uncontrollably by now. Apparently having way too much fun, she orders her own crew to fire on Billy's ship. One battery on the sleek cruiser aims at the rickety galleon. It fires a single shot, hitting the old ship in the rear. Chunks of it explode into space, and the craft shoots uncontrollably toward the Sunset colony. Short Billy: IMEEEELLLLLDDDAAAAAA!!!!!!! The transmission is cut off. By this time, Gunner is beating on the various control panels in frustration as his lifeless ship is finally pulled into the hangar of the large cruiser and laid to rest. Ten burly men armed with Lanus Arms M42 rifles surround the ship. Gunner: ... Slag. |
| Gunner Drifter Banned (Not really) Not Immortal 1/25/2007 12:13:46 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 58 | RE: Flight Problems As Gunner's ship is tractor-beamed into the cruiser, he tries to think of a way out of this mess. As his ship docks, he sighs. Gunner: I got nothing... what am I gonna do now? He popped open the dome and put his hands in the air as armed pirates came into the bay. Pirate1: Slowly stand up and come down out of there. Gunner did as he was told, mind still racing for an answer. Imelda then walked in. Imelda: Well looky here... Gunner didn't know what to do or say. He stared blankly at Imelda. After a moment passes, he gives up trying to think of a way out and accepts the truth: he's been captured and he's completely at their mercy. Gunner:... What will you do with me? |
| Short Billy Gold Captain and Crew of the Frozen Chicken Pirate Dominion Master 1/26/2007 11:30:18 AM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 21 | RE: Flight Problems Imelda: Throw you in the brig for now. We will then strip your ship for parts and sell them, but I doubt we'll get much. A couple burly pirates take Gunner through a doorway. He now is in a long hall with many doors on either side. Nobody else seems to be around. If he's going to do something, now would probably be the best time, but if he does manage to escape, what will he do? He's got to get back to the hangar, get through all the pirates swarming it, get into his ship, and fly out before they activate the tractor beam again. Fun. |
| Gunner Drifter Banned (Not really) Not Immortal 4/14/2007 1:27:30 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 58 | RE: Flight Problems **Gunner looked at the guard on his left, then turned to size up the one on his right. They were big guys, but Gunner could handle himself. Noticing the guard on his right was holding his confiscated Double-Beam Sword, Gunner planned his first move.** *Gunner started coughing and fell to the floor. The guard on the right knelt and grabbed onto him.* Guard: Get up! **Gunner brought one fist up into the mans jaw and grabbed the saber with his other hand. He spuns around and activated it, slicing the other guard in half before he could react. Gunner turned to the stunned guard to find he wasn't nearly as stunned as Gunner hoped he'd be. He slapped the beam saber from Gunner's hand and unsheathed his rapier.** Guard: Bugger! Come on, then! *The pirate thrusted the blade towards Gunner's chest, but Gunner twisted to the side. He grabbed the pirate's hand with his left and brought the palm of his right hand up into the pirates's elbow forcefully. The pirate's elbow snapped and he dropped the rapier.* Guard: Ah!! You broke my arm! Gunner: Guess what I'm gonna do now! **Gunner let go of the mans broken arm and caught his face witha right hook and shoved him into the wall. The pirate shook it off and lunger back to Gunner almost instantly, smashing his face into Gunner's. Gunner hit the floor.** Guard: Enough of this game! I'm gonna kill you with your own weapon! *The pirate pulled out the glock 18 he had confiscated from Gunner. As he aimed it toward Gunner's head, Gunner slammed his combat boot clad foot into the pirated calf bone. It snapped and the big guy faltered. Gunner rolled towards him, thrust his hand up toward the man's crotch and then... activated the beam saber he picked up when he first hit the ground.* Gunner: And I'll take that back... *he took the glock from the man's hand* And you can get on with your dieing now. *He ignored the man's scream as he walked down the hall. As he got to the door to the hangar, he heard some bustling about behind him. He turned and looked. All the doors in the hallway were open, and the was a pirate with a rapier standing in each doorway.* Gunner: Oh, slag it all... |
| Short Billy Gold Captain and Crew of the Frozen Chicken Pirate Dominion Master 4/15/2007 1:50:40 AM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 21 | RE: Flight Problems As Gunner and the pirates stand in a stalemate, the ship suddenly rocks violently. Pirate: What the? Imelda's voice is heard over the PA system. Imelda: All crew to the hangar! Short Billy has... crashed his junker into it. The pirates seem to forget of Gunner's existence and rush to the hangar. Inside the hangar is the flaming husk of a 17th century (Earth, A.D.) galleon with no masts. Short Billy is locked in epic, swashbuckling battle with several pirates. Since he's a main character, he can hold out for an indefinite amount of time against seemingly insurmountable odds. Mr. Mozart is biting people. On the bridge, Imelda is watching the action through a security camera. She grips her forehead and shakes her head shamefully. She turns away from the monitor, removing her red suede jacket. She quickly checks to ensure her cutlass is still on her hip as she marches gracefully to the exit. Back in the hangar, Billy is swathing a path to the entrance. Short Billy: IMELDA!!!! The double sliding doors of the hangar entrance open obnoxiously dramatically. Imelda stands in the doorway. Epic orchestrated music kicks in. Gunner: *Watching the scene from the safety of a conveniently man-sized air duct* Whoa. Imelda draws her highly-polished, gem-encrusted cutlass. Suddenly the pirate lackies become as observers for cinematic reasons. Imelda attacks. Billy parries in the nick of time. Chunks of considerable magnitude fly from the blade of his own cutlass from the impact, but it does not seem to gain his attention. He counters, but Imelda parries that and answers, slicing the last button he had off his ragged coat. Short Billy: Arr... Been meanin' to get new buttons anyway. He ducks beneath a sweep meant for his neck. He invokes HSLD Swashbuckle. He draws his musket in an effort to get a shot off at Imelda, but she flicks it out of his grasp using her blade. He regains his awkward grip and continues to strike, parry, counter, parry... Mr. Mozart wimpers and puts his paws over his eyes. |
| Gunner Drifter Banned (Not really) Not Immortal 4/23/2008 6:13:37 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 58 | RE: Flight Problems **While Imelda and Short Billy Gold are locked in battle, Gunner uses the opportunity to slip back into the hangar and find his ship. Luckily, everyone was too distracted to even notice as he hopped back in, slapped on the piloting visor, closed the latch and lifted off. Only after he was already gone did any of the pirates realize what had happened.** Pirate1: Do you think Captain Imelda'll be mad when she finds out 'bout this? Pirate2: *watches the swordplay betwen Billy and his captain* You mean IF she finds out 'bout this. |
| Gunner Drifter Banned (Not really) Not Immortal 1/5/2009 8:01:42 PM Level: 1 Experience: 0 Total Posts: 58 | RE: Flight Problems *Gunner got far enough away from Imelda's ship and then switched on the hyperdrive without any particular destination in mind. He set his piloting computer to loop all known planet and station locations until he was nearly out of fuel or until he undid it manually. Then he laid his head back and shut his eyes* --Hours later-- *Gunner was jerked awake by the blaring alarms. He sat up and saw that his ship had come out of hypedrive. He looked at the screen. His ship was auto-landing on a planet to refuel. Gunner looked at the screen, horrified.* -Meeriad- Gunner: Oh no... anywhere but here. --To be continued in Meeriad-- |
