The Sereni-Tree: Flight of the Firefly by PsychicRiver

*** NOTE: THIS POST BEGINS BEFORE PIFFLE DRIVES THE MULE ABOARD THE SERENI-TREE ***

* From his seat up in the pilot dome, TheRealMe receives a call from Jet in Engineering. *

Jet: Sorry, Grey just got weird and left, and we’re a little too busy down here to pilot the ship. Maybe in a few minutes…

TheRealMe: Uh, I’m ALSO going to need you to rig us for a full burn in less than a minute!

* Jet mutters something Chinese under her breath and signs off. *

* From his vantage point in the cockpit, TheRealMe looks down into the main area of the Bridge. He mutters: *

Where could Static be? Did we leave him behind on Earth-That-Still-Is? Did he sneak along on the Destiny’s Shadow mission without telling anyone? Is he asleep in his quarters? And where in blazes is Grey going?

* Just then, the doors to the Bridge open and a slim figure steps inside. *

I can fly the ship!

* It is Bride5, wearing serviceable coveralls rather than her usual slinky red dress. She jumps into one of the three Bridge stations and configures it for piloting controls. Holographic views of outside the Sereni-Tree spring to life all around her. As soon as she is ready, TheRealMe transfers control to her. Then he hops out of the cockpit, climbs down, and occupies the Bridge station next to her. *

TheRealMe: Steady as she goes, Bride5. That Bridge station won’t be as good as the cockpit for piloting the ship, but you should be able to do the job from there. The mule’s coming toward us, but we’re going to meet it half-way. Be careful that our engine plumes don’t wash over our friends.

Bride5: What about the Reavers? They’re awfully close behind the mule.

TheRealMe (determined): I’ll take care of the Reavers!

* Bride5 concentrates on her piloting task. TheRealMe touches a com control for a ship-wide broadcast. *

TheRealMe: Attention! All Zoe-clones and any available fighters report to the Main Cargo Bay in full combat gear. Prepare to repel borders!

* TheRealMe raises both of his arms high as gauntlets of metal and plastic descend from above his control station to encase them. Then he moves his arms freely and wiggles his fingers inside these gauntlets. Indicators on the control panel before him flash green as the monstrous grappler arms mounted on the sides of the Sereni-Tree come to life and mimic his motions. A holographic scene of the outside envelops him. TheRealMe can see the speeding mule below him, followed closely by numerous Reaver vehicles. *

TheRealMe: Computer! Open Main Cargo Bay doors!

Computer: Main Cargo Bay door opened.

* At that moment, the entire Sereni-Tree rocks from an explosion and tips sidewards. Bride5 struggles with the controls, brow furrowed, as she rights the ship. *

TheRealMe: Gunners! Target enemy tanks!

* At that moment, the mecha of TheGreyJedi erupts from the earth, disorienting the Reavers and offering them a new target. TheRealMe is dumbfounded. *

TheRealMe: Okay, I guess Grey can handle the Reaver tanks all by himself.

Bride5 (still struggling with the controls): I’m supposed to do WHAT, now?

TheRealMe: Right! Sorry! Orient the Sereni-Tree so that the Main Cargo Bay doors are facing our friends’ mule. Extend the cargo ramp. Hover very close to the ground, but don’t land. Give Piffle some room to slow down. Then be prepared for an immediate full burn.

Bride5: Crap! I never even did that all that in a simulator!

TheRealMe: Maybe, but you don’t know how to work these arms at all.

* Bride5 touches some controls, wiggles one hand grip, and shoves the other one forward. The Sereni-Tree responds by twisting and dropping abruptly in front of the speeding mule. The ship hovers there, just off the ground, and Bride5 steadies it while Piffle slams on the brakes and the mule screeches up the extended ramp and into the Main Cargo bay. TheRealMe uses the external grappler arms to swat away and crush the two nearest Reaver vehicles. *

Jet (over the com link, confused): What?! Was I supposed to be flying just now, TRM? Right! No crashing and killing us all. Now, lets get the hell out of here. Don't care much for reavers.

Zoe-clone2 (over the com-link): Bridge, the cargo bay doors are secure!

TheRealMe: FULL BURN!

* The Sereni-Tree responds to Bride5’s jab at the control panel and its engines launch the ship high into the sky, incinerating any nearby Reavers on the ground. *

TheRealMe: Whew! Well, that’s over. Good job, Bride5! Now we just have to pick up Grey.

* In the Sereni-Tree’s Main Cargo Bay, Piffle’s Spam-covered mule screeches to a halt. Four Zoe-clones in full combat armor fire their full-auto assault rifles out of the huge open hatchway at the numerous Reavers that are attempting to follow Piffle’s mule aboard. Not one makes it inside. Zoe-clone3 pulls a lever and the massive doors close as the Sereni-Tree’s huge grappler arms can be seen outside smashing Reaver vehicles. As the doors slam shut, Zoe-clone2 keys her com-link. *

Zoe-clone2: Bridge, the cargo bay doors are secure!

* The entire Sereni-Tree vibrates as the ship’s engines strain at their maximum output. PsychicRiver and Piffle drop out of the vehicle, exhausted. Moments later, all four Zoe-clones surround the mule, pointing their weapons at Safe and Jack. When they get a closer look, they lower their weapons. The Zoe-clones speak in chorus: *

You’re not Reavers. Who are you two?

Zoe-clone3: Better not move him.

Zoe-clone2 (into com-link): Doctor, please report to the Main Cargo Bay. We have an injury. Broken ribs. Possible concussion.

*the large white mecha slams its palms together. As they pull slowly apart, a dark energy swirls, distorting the image of the white mecha behind it. The hands continue to spread apart to their farmost point, palms still inward. A click comes over the comm.*

Magnadeus! Gravity Drive: Engage! SereniTREE: follow mode!

*Icons on the control panel wink to life all on their own. The ominous humming of the Gravity Drive in SereniTREE's Engineering deck resonates throughout the surrounding parts of the ship. Suddenly, the white mecha's palms shoot outward. The energy gathered in front of the mecha expands outward in a sphere, melding with similar energy coming from SereniTREE. The world around them becomes a visual negative of what it should be, then flashing white, then the negative of a section of space. The sphere collapses revealing space all around, the Destiny's Shadow can be seen off at a distance. Around the SereniTREE and Magnadeus is a measure of dirt and many floating bodies. Somestill wriggling, somehow surviving the drop into and back out of the 4th dimension.*

Okay, something seriously strange is going on outside. I'm guessing more injuries on the way. Right, well, best get busy with the current ones then.

What do we have here? Ribs? Okay, here's the bad news: I can't cure broken ribs. The good: they heal by themselves. I can give you something for the pain and strap you up but try not to get yourselves kicked there in the near future, all right?

Fishie, look at me. Okay, follow my finger. Do you know what day it is? Who's President of the Verse? That's right, it's Malicious, well done. I don't think you're badly concussed, just a bit shaken. Try to take things easy for the next couple of days.

It should be clarified that those are the bodies of Reavers. Any that were alive have, by now, traumatically decompressed. Fun!

You say Bluefishie is here on the Sereni-Tree?

* TheRealMe is clearly confused. *

But… Bluefishie made a teleporter box and transferred over to the Destiny’s Shadow. What is she doing back here? Did her teleportation wear off? I never heard of such a….

* It is at this time that TheGreyJedi’s god-like power moves the ‘Verse. *

What in the gorram hell was THAT?!

Oh. Right. It was Grey.

* TheRealMe causes the grappler arm gauntlets to retract and he reconfigures his control station for Sensors and Communications. He detects three blips which he identifies as Grey's new mecha, the Destiny’s Shadow and the Admiral Nelson. He sends out a trio of encrypted tight-beam communication signals. *

Hey, Soul! Weirdgirl! Grey! Is everything okay? How is the rescue of Rat and Emma going? Is there something we can do to help?

You know, the Destiny's Shadow could dock at the Sereni-Tree's main airlock, and our hanger bay might take up the rest! Shall we become one crew again?

Oh, are Ath and Lissa back from their date?

* TheRealMe turns toward Bride5, who is sitting calmly at her own control station. *

Go ahead. I know you want to!

* With a smile, Bride5 jumps from her control station and climbs up into the Sereni-Tree’s cramped cockpit. *

Uh-oh!

* TheRealMe is still numb from having just gotten back home from the Shindig in Raleigh, NC, where he saw the Big Damn Movie with the likes of Montanagirl, Cozen, Koffee, Mai, Lissa, CallMeAth, CallMeSerenity, XanderLHarris (Ash), Needleseye, Static, TheGreyJedi, Atilla, Cowgirl, Torquemada, and loads of others (oh, yes, and a phone call from Ebo!). It was such a blast! He will have to recover before posting here again. *

Okay... Easy now... THERE!

* TheRealMe touches some control surfaces on his bridge station and the docking clamps of the Sereni-Tree latch onto the Destiny's Shadow.

Good job, Bride5. That was a fine docking maneuver.

* TheRealMe touches some more control surfaces and the mated airlocks of the two ships open, allowing the crews of the two ships to co-mingle. *

There! Now you don't even have to remember on which ship you were located (though I gave a summary on this thread back on Sep 19). You can be on either ship, now, as you like.

The only exceptions are Emma and Rat (who are still lost - but could send us a message) and ThatWeirdGirl, Jayne-clone2, Mal-licious and... Zoid? (who are on the shuttle Admiral Nelson, where Rat and Emma were last seen). Oh, yes. Cozen are Molly are still probably in the Sereni-Tree’s Infirmary.

Soul? Serenity? With Static apparently in a torpor (or at a Ren Faire) I'm going to turn over piloting of the combined ship to the Head of Succatash.
