RE: The Mist of Wist

Neil: Fly... Fly through the ship? I may be totally frigging insane but even I know not to ram my piddly little box into the side of a frigate.

One of his rare moments of clarity and brutal honesty.

Neil: But now we're screwed.

Literally—the pirates are at work right now bolting the ship into custom cargo brackets in the floor to make sure they can't leave, or at least not easily.

Neil: But, hey! You wanted pirates. We got pirates.

He smiles innocently.

RE: The Mist of Wist

Szyren tugs at her ear.

Szyren: Well... You know what I meant.

She looks at Neil's gun, and then she looks at her own gun and then back to Neil's.

Szyren: Yes, anyways, these aren't the right pirates... We aren't even looking for a pirate ship, actually.  That blighter on Perrenor just didn't want anyone in the pub to know... what I know.

She grins deviantly and cocks her gun.

Szyren: Since we're screwed anyways, can we give 'em a fight now?

RE: The Mist of Wist

Officer: Ma'am, they have boarded our ship. They are sitting in our hanger bay.
Imelda: They what? Screw them!
Officer: Yes, ma'am.
Imelda: You're posing as Captain this time. Get dressed.
Officer: Yes, ma'am.

Imelda and the female officer get dressed and join the other pirates in the bay. I couple of them get cutting torches, and prepair to open the doors, while a couple others are still screwing down the ship.

The posing officer (now known as Valerie) gives the order to start cutting the doors open. The pirates surrounding the ship, ready their weapons.

Neil also takes notice of Szyren's lack of decent firepower. He pulls one of his SA44s off of its shoulder sling and hands it to her. He gives a short rundown of how to use it—the stock latch, the firemode selector, that sort of thing.

Neil: And don't go shooting like wow. Ammo ain't cheap, 'kay?

He looks toward the rear of the ship.

Neil: They're going to start cutting us up in a few seconds if I don't do something first. Got something that'll make a buttload of smoke, or some kind of distraction in general?

RE: The Mist of Wist

On the surface of the moon below, it is pouring rain and extremely foggy--typical weather since the Rippov showed up. Short Billy Gold was beginning to suspect it was strictly for dramatic effect. Maybe Steven Spielberg was directing it.

Anyhow, he was in some deserted part of town now. No Rippov, no Marines. He decides to sit down on a chunk of building lying in the street to rest his peg leg.

Short Billy: Arr... Mr. Mozart, I don't be suspectin' that this be a fitting place to find us a ship.

Mr. Mozart wimpers.

Short Billy: ... And I'm gettin' a strange sensation. Almost like...

He looks slowly up into the sky, ignoring the rain pouring into his eyes.

Short Billy: ... Imelda.

A bolt of lightning strikes close to punctuate his statement.

RE: The Mist of Wist

Szyren nods like wow and rifles through her bag for a second before extracting a Phantom Smoke.  She flips open her lighter and waits.

Szyren: Now, when this thing goes off, it's going to be one heckuva show, got it? So don't go getting distracted by the pretty colors and stuff... And, just so you know, it’ll spread like butter on toast to anywhere that’s open, but it’s real heavy like, so it won’t just get sucked away like real smoke when there’s a draft.  But that also means that it’s really hard to breathe in, so take a big piece of air before it goes off, and try to suck in air through your nose. It actually smells pretty nice.

As soon as she's finished with her explanation and has pulled her bandana over her nose and mouth, she flicks the lighter on and lights the fuse.  She rolls it across the floor and it hits the foot of the bed.  It will take approximately 60 seconds for the spark to ignite the bomb and for it to go off; plenty of time for Neil to do something so his ship doesn’t get cheesed. In the meantime, she's got her new toy all fired up and ready to rock.

RE: The Mist of Wist

Neil stares at the firework on the floor.

He scowls.

He moves slowly toward it and kicks it over to the door.

He watches the fuse.

Neil: So what if they just cut through us with blowtorches as soon as we walk out? I don't need to be any hotter than I already am. Heh. Heh heh.

His nervous chuckles trail off as he watches the fuse very intently.

He moves toward the door release, prepared to open it when the smoke bomb goes off.

RE: The Mist of Wist

Imelda and Valerie watch the door as they are starting to cut through it. After about a minute, the door falls, but not by being cut. It was reliesed from the inside-out. Smoke rolls out the opening and spreads accross the floor. Confusion rings out, and gunshots come from inside the ship. It takes out several of the pirates.

The smoke gets worse and no one can really see. The gunshots stop almost as soon as they started, and there is quiet all around. They can hear footsteps on the floor of the ship coming near them.

There is a sharp clang, and a man cursing under his breath. Imelda backs up, and tries to make her way towards where she thinks the stairs to the balcony are. She bumps and jostles a few people, but doesn't know whether they are friend or foe.

RE: The Mist of Wist

Neil: Well, whose idea was this anyway? Must have been some idiot.

He lowers his gun.

Neil: Hey!

A flurry of bullets enters the ship. After they're done, Neil hears a pang, the whiz of a bullet passing by the other way, and one of the pirates yelping.

The pirates start shooting again, hitting nothing, and another yelp as another one gets struck by a ricochet.

Neil: Let's settle this like...

He coughs.

Neil: Like—

He hacks.

Neil: Like the bunch of stupid idiots we all are, okay?

RE: The Mist of Wist

Szyren rolls her eyes and does a dramatic little head roll, but no one can see it, so she grabs Neil by the arm and starts to pull him out of the ship, dodging bullet's she can't see.

Szyren: Or... we could get around behind them and shoot 'em all down... Although they seem to be doing a good job of it themselves.

She trips and hits the trigger and shoots off a random round which definitely hits someone, as evidenced by a rather gargled screamy sound.  Neil is behind her, so it can't be him.

Score:
Szyren: 1
Pirates: 0

Sweet. She fires in another direction and someone else lets out a garbled horror movie sound effect.

She stops shooting now and sincerely hopes she hasn't actually killed anyone, but only injured them in gruesome and irreparable ways.

Szyren: Okay, pirate-princess... show your face so I can seriously maim it!
