"I can't believe we've stooped so low as to become a taxi service.." Neil sighed, at the wheel of the Tyrfing. Things often got tough for the Tyr crew so they had to take on various odd jobs to make ends meat, like transporting passengers from one area to the next, most of the time with ol' Johnny Law knowing of course.
They had a nice crop of passengers this time, all good payers, but still.. The golden age Tyr would have already robbed them of all their worth and left them all to rot in some godforsaken valley in the middle of nowhere. Had he become soft without his father's guiding hand..?

James sat in a chair next to Neil, idly performing matinwnce in his weapon. "Or can't be helped sometimes" James said, his Lockseeds placed on the dashboard.

"I guess it doesn't matter as long as we're paid.." he said stretching, "And if our guests don't trash our stuff.."
He scratched his head and frowned upon finding several white flakes clutched between his fingers.
"Great," he thought to himself, "Of course my dandruff is back..How can this day get any worse?"
He held his breath. It was only in his head that time, but he clearly set up a flag for something bad to happen, but nothing..
Good, he didn't need any crap today. It was just smooth sailing from here.

"Speaking of guests, would you be a dear and go check on them in the hold? I would just have Wired pull up the surveillance footage, but he's reserving power today for a complete systems check."

"Yeah fine" James said, setting down his sword on the dash. He got up from his chair, stretching out as he did. "You need anything? I could use some whiskey" James asked, brushing a bit of lint off of his shoulder with sides of his fingers.

"I really shouldn't since i'm the one driving... but ah what the hell, not like i'm going to run into anything so high up in the air," he laughed, "Also, make sure none of the passengers see with our booze. We're a taxi, not a bar."

"Naturally!" James said. He walked off, heading towards the mess hall. Once there he pocketed a bottle of Jack Daniels and a bottle of Smirnoff, concealing them in his jacket. Once that was done he moved over to the passenger area, sticking his head into the room.

And that's when a bearded man tackled him to the ground, placing a knife to his throat. |

James broke the bottle of Smirnoff over the dudes head to distract him, before rolling over to stand on top of him. His Lockseeds were in the cockpit, meaning he couldn't get to them. Still, he was the Dragon Of the West, he didn't need a walnut to fight.

"Hey! Break it up you two!" shouted a second man, this one considerably younger, as he attempted to pull James off the first man who was still in a slight shock after being hit upside the head. |

"I'm the first mate of this vessel and he decided to pull a knife on me" James said, backing off. "I only did what was necessary" he said, mourning the loss of his booze.

The younger man bent over the first man.
"Hey, buddy? Are you alright?"
The man grumbled in return, "My head is killing me..But i'll live."
"Why the hell did you pull a knife on him?"
He frowned before looking at James, "I apologize for that. I get..uneasy above the ground.."

"I didn't get a good look at you when we boarded, you could have been anyone," said the bearded man. The younger man was checking out the man's head. "I'm not a doctor, but it doesn't like that bad too me. You maybe some stitches. Anyone here a doctor?" A well dressed elderly man stepped forward, "I'm a doctor - of archaeology, but I do have minor know-how in the field of medicine." "Good to hear," nodded the younger man. "I have no medical equipment of any kind on my person," the elderly man turned to James, "Do you happen to have a medical facility of any kind on this vessel?" |
