[QUOTE=enigmarage;50774109]After completely zoning out writing messages back and forth to a contact outside of the ship, Owen slumped in the cockpit chair, not really doing much of anything. Finally, he noticed that several things took place. Yuga was notoriously absent, which lead to a mild panic in Owen. "What time is it? What day is it?" Owen asked to himself. In addition, Owen could just feel the tension on the ship. He didn't know eactly what it was, but he wanted to find out. Owen wandered around the ship until finally ending up in the med bay. ((I can edit if need be, I just wanted to come back into the picture.))[/QUOTE] ((I believe Yuga is on the bridge, also if you want interaction, you are in the wrong medbay. We have a new ship, and the medbay there is the one where all the action is.))
((Ima hit the bunk. Just imagine that Maddox explains what Yuga did when Moloch was invited etc. incase anyone wonders what the fuss is about. Kiler-Vakarus & Infab-Maddox.))
((Snip)) ((Edited previous post, Owen now speaks to Yuga.))
As Hestia carried Amelia to the hanger, she made to do so carefully and gently put her down in font of the ship's medic. "Bonjour, Miss. Mercy, I'm the Muramasa's head officer, it's a shame we couldn't met under better circumstances but nevertheless, what is your Personal evaluation of the two?" Hestia asked to mercy politely.
[QUOTE]You'll know when you come in at a bad time, mate.[/QUOTE] "Can't wait till the mission is over, huh?" Before they could continue, the message from Maddox came through. "Oh boy. Is this happening too?" [QUOTE]I'll put it as politely as I can. Her actions are really bad for morale. I didn't sign up to be an attack dog for someone's personal beliefs.[/QUOTE]
[quote]Mercy nods, shaking her hand eagerly. "I am Mercy, ze ship's medic, and on occasion combat medic! It would be nice if you could help me wiss ze other two!" She says, motioning her head to the two unconsious people lying in beds.[/quote] "Oh, um, sure," Amelia kneels down. "What's the situation for these two?" she asks.
János just kept quiet, not wanting to force himself in the conversation. As he watched Mercy introduce herself and talk to the others, he received the message from Maddox. He just typed up a message on his communicator, all natural looking, while still looking at the others. [QUOTE]You know how I reacted back when we defended Moloch. Yuga has a power fetish, one which doesn't care to see people die just so she can feel more powerful.[/QUOTE]
Mercy sighs, looking over at the two. "Well, zey're both stable, but in. Ahm. Bad shape, as you can see."
[quote]Mercy sighs, looking over at the two. "Well, zey're both stable, but in. Ahm. Bad shape, as you can see."[/quote] "Okay, Hestia you can handle them while I handle the documentation and watch your skills go to work." Amelia smiles.
Mercy waves her hand, "No, no, madame. As I've said, zey're boss stable, and shouldn't need much more zan rest and ze occasional IV bag change."
[QUOTE]"Taylor, just so you know, I trust you with my life. I'd follow you into the darkest of black holes and the warmest of suns. If you would've ordered me to walk up on that bridge and cuff Yuga I would do it."[/QUOTE] Taylor saluted him back as he departed. She admired his loyalty, really, but wondered if there was more to it than JUST loyalty. Especially with how cheesy some of that statement sounded. She smiled a bit. Eh, well. She had other stuff to focus on at the moment. She needed her plasma autoshotgun. The 'Brahma Bull', as she had nicknamed it due to the bull that Mad had painted on the front when he upgraded it. The enemy will definitely smell what she's cooking when she uses it in the missile base tomorrow. She headed down to the armory of the Muramasa, and grabbed the massive two-handed weapon from the table in the corner of the room. She'd come back for the ammo canisters in a bit.
Yuga answered Owen without looking in his direction, "Ms Korunov and Ms Blackwell are both badly injured and being treated on the Cataract. Sadly the mission has been postponed until tomorrow when Caine has a thorough plan to present."
[quote]Mercy waves her hand, "No, no, madame. As I've said, zey're boss stable, and shouldn't need much more zan rest and ze occasional IV bag change."[/quote] "Oh, whoops." Amelia put away her notepad she just brought out before the doc told her it was not needed, "So... you're a doctor? How many years of experience?" she asked Mercy. ----- [QUOTE=Infab;50774481]She headed down to the armory of the Muramasa, and grabbed the massive two-handed weapon from the table in the corner of the room. She'd come back for the ammo canisters in a bit.[/QUOTE] "What are you doing?" Porter asked as he sneaked up behind her without a sound. "That's one big weapon you got there, plan on using it soon?" he towered over her, staring deeply into her eyes.
Mercy turned back to Amelia, smiling. "Well, I'd say a... couple of years, I guess! That isn't including ze, ahm, years in medical school I had!"
[QUOTE]"That's one big weapon you got there, plan on using it soon?"[/QUOTE] "Yes, actually. When we go back into the missile base." she said, looking up at him. She held up the autoshotgun without much issue, due to sheer muscular strength, but wouldn't dare shoot it without her suit. She had done something similar before, and ended up knocking her arm out of socket. "...you know, you move very quietly for a big guy." she added.

As long as you aren't using it for anyone in the crew, just making sure. It's my job," Porter sighs. "Yeah, I've been told. Shoes have been refitted to be as quiet as possible, and from a lot of years in the field with Creed, you learn how to stay quiet with your movement," he adds, "even if you're 7 feet tall." "Tell me, how long did it take to rack up those gigantic muscles? As a woman, you must get some attention walking around."
Mercy nods, beaming while leaning against one of the empty tables. "Likewise, madame!"
Owen shook his head, "And I thought prospera gave us trouble. Guess I aint seen nothing yet."

Where were you stationed? I might have passed by sometime during my years of duty." ----- In the medbay where Amelia was standing ever so standingly, her ringtone goes off, playing a [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P4UrBcTlHVU&feature=youtu.be&t=54s]weeb song[/url] out loud before she quickly grabs for her phone and turns down the ringtone turbo fast. After noticing it was just a dumb telemarketer, she hangs up the call, and puts the phone back in her pocket. She looks around, worriedly laughing.
[QUOTE=Snoberry Tea;50770521][i]Johannes gladly accepts the clothes, though he pauses at the shorts.[/i][b] "Odd. I don't remember packing these. Or buying any for that matter. Maybe I stole them and forgot."[/b][i] He shrugs and starts removing the interlocking pieces of his under-armor, then peeling off the black skin-tight suit it was all mounted to. Under that, he's wearing a grey fitted tank top and what are essentially boxer briefs. He pulls the shorts on, then slips the PT shirt on over his tank top. While he's changing, he speaks to Bucky to answer her question.[/i][b] "Not too sure. Abraxas is done operating on them, but I think he said they're neither stable or awake. I'm hoping they recover speedily."[/b][i] He looks hard at Bucky for a few moments, then smiles.[/i][b] "I don't think we've met yet. Are you one of the engineers?"[/b][/QUOTE] Bucky looks at the squad's wounded while Johannes does his thing. She looks sad but collected, her friends are hurt badly and she feels for them. She shrugs at Johanne's question and replies with: "Yeah, the [I]only[/I] one right now. I've been keeping the Muramasa together since this whole little madhouse came together. My name is Bucky Fermi, nice to meet you." She looks at him with a slight smile. "Sorry, but I already know your name Johannes." She seems okay on the outside, just understandably in a sad mood.
János overheard Amelia's ringtone. Hearing the tune caused him to remember another hidden memory... --- He was but a young lad. He was sitting in his room, a generic looking place - a cheap metal bed, floor made from fake wood, a cheap table with a book on it, and a television. The government would only allow either televisions or computers per household, and his household was assigned televisions. Not wanting to re-read the same book, "Get the Truth: Learn How to Persuade Anyone to Tell All," he sat on his knees and turned on his television. The first channel was the usual government news stuff, nothing a young lad like him would care about. Switching to the next channel, he found one of his favorite musicals, Chigago, but this was the 4th repeat this week. Switching further, he discovered the animation channel. It was about to play a music video. He sat in anticipation of what it was going to be. It started: it was Snow Halation. He watched through the entire music video, with subtitles helping him understand the lyrics. By the time it finished and switched to a government made cartoon series, he was smiling. He wondered if he was going to hear that song on repeat, just like Chicago. There was one thing certain, however. They would never air the series. --- János just looked confused in Amelia's direction. He wasn't sure how to handle this sudden memory come back to him. He would have to note it later.

You know that EHE suit I usually wear? You had to wear one of those to just go outside one of the three mining colonies on the surface." she said. "My mother still lives there. She's one of the miners in Pyrus-1, the first and largest mining colony."
Mercy blinks, taken aback slightly by the volume of the ringtone. She looks at Amelia, "Ahm... what was zat, madame?" She says, with an innocent, yet confused, look on her face.

Maybe his memory doesn't serve as well as it used to. It would have been solidified if not for the II in the name, "Doesn't ring a bell, although why would it when I was on the front lines. Did you have a rank?"
[QUOTE]"Doesn't ring a bell, although why would it when I was on the front lines. Did you have a rank?"[/QUOTE] "First Lieutenant." she said, with a nod. "Would have made Captain if I hadn't left the SDF. That, and I probably would have been in the SSFD."
[QUOTE=Infab;50775215]"First Lieutenant." she said, with a nod. "Would have made Captain if I hadn't left the SDF. That, and I probably would have been in the SSFD."[/QUOTE] "Huh, officer, never liked the office. Captain ain't that fun, have a friend who's a Captain now, hates his job." "SSFD?

[QUOTE]"SSFD? Special forces is one heck of a challenge. They bleed you dry. Probably good you left while you could."[/QUOTE] "Eh. I still think about what could have been. Anyway, want to help me? Need someone to carry those two canisters there to the Cataract. That's the ammo for this baby." she said, lifting up the autoshotgun slightly.

"See? Easy. Let's move."
Taylor nods in agreement, then strolls out. Carrying the massive autoshotgun with her. Her carrying that massive weapon would be a sight to behold for the others, as she strolled down the ramp and across to the Cataract.
