Grey's eyes go out of focus, lost in something. he grimaces slightly, his right eye and lid twitch a couple of times. He growls out a 'Hmmm.' And takes a deep breath.

"Something...is defintely different."

ok, i have one way of testing out if its supernatural... *takes Fin off her back and hold him out at arms length* for some reason, babies can always see ghosts, in the movies anyway... babies and cats, and in the absence of a cat... If theres something here with us, Fin should be fairly interested enough.



*begins to panic!

Oooh baby! Hello baby! Yes, you little sweet thing you, tell mommy what you see, ok?

*Fin gurlgles, spits his tongue out and then waves his arms about in Mai's direction.

*Serenity echoes Grey's eyebrow raise. Then, she wanders over to the area where little Fin seems to be gazing at (or trying to, the poor thing is barely old enough to hold his head up). She takes slow long steps in a widening circle. She takes another step forward and then stops.*

Ooh! Everyone come over here. It's colder over here! Weird.

*She takes a few steps back and a few steps forward again.*

The sound of the double-door's latch being lifted brings LMD's focus back to his surroundings. There were few enough breaks from the monotony of sitting alone in his prison, so El looks expectantly at the room's only entrance. Though it must only be Sally come again to question and torture him, he would welcome her and the pain she would visit upon his flesh if for no other reason than giving his mind something else to think on for a while. LMD's ability to keep his thoughts off of his current situation grows greater every day, but he doesn't think anyone can ever space out enough to make such boredom bearable.

Whispered curses from just outside the door add to the racket of the latch. Finally, the doors swing open, and a figure falls forward into the room. El looks down at the man sprawled out on the floor and almost laughs. It's Paul.

"Hrm. Melding steel and steam is one thing. Communing with the dispossesed is...decidedly trickier. Unfortunately, the only spirits I can conjure are, well, dead. And as near as I can tell, our wayward Mai is not." He shrugs. "But I might can cook something up. Anyone have any virgin blood on 'em?"

Excuse me!

**she runs off behind a building and comes back a few minutes later, looking a little green but steadier on her feet. She passes a water trough, looks at the slimy water, she shakes her head and notices a liquor vendor nearby. She grabs a vodka, tosses some coins to the shopkeep, rinses and spits, then heads back to the group**

"It's...a sorta permenant deal." He sighs. "I don't have a lot of these, so I was hoping not to have to use it." He hops off his horse and reaches into an inside pocket of his longcoat. He pulls out a small glass vial, about two inches long and a quarter inch in diameter, full of a deep red liquid. He pops the cap of and pours the small amount of fluid in the palm of his right hand. Using his left hand he draws a rough symbol onto a rock. He grabs his cane from his horse, mutters a few words and brings the hammer head top of his cane down on the center of the symbol. The symbol lights up to a bright red and slowly burns away. "That should do it. Anyone with spirit sensitivity should be able to see anything floating about in Not-Quite-Our-Space-Time."

Grey grins darkly. "Well, the short answer is yes." Grey looks around at his comrades noting the looks varying from nonplussed to utterly revolted. He sighs and waves his hand. "It's my own blood. Some time ago I came to the realization I wouldn't always be a virgin, so I...set some aside for a rainy day." He coughs.

"I'm...not entirely sure. As I said, I've only got experience with the not-so-living. If Mai were floating about out of body, this should allow those who can feel or sense spirits to see, essentially, her mental projection...her avatar, if you will. At least, in theory, anyway."

Several minutes later, Mai slowly awakens to a viscious headache. Reaching up to feel her temple her hand comes away covered in blood. She tries to sit up and then promptly passes out again, back to the dark.

*Serenity tries very hard to concentrate on seeing something floating in the Not-Quite-Our-Space-Time, but doesn't see anything. Suddenly, however, she gets this strange feeling, like her shoulder suddenly went numb. She whips around her, but doesn't seen anything, and the feeling is gone.*

The Man They Call Soul...


"Well, let's see what this does."

Soul takes a deep breath and focuses, forcing his body to begin to phase in place. Someone a long time ago had told him that when phasing, he was actually moving between several dimensions before returning to his, so if Mai was around...just maybe...

He lets his vision shift, passing through several strange incarnations of the western town until...a figure begins to shimmer, and Mai appears. Soul reaches out for her, but just as suddenly, she is gone, and--

"Soul!"

Snapped back to solidity, Soul turns to the group.

"I saw her! She's here, or at least she was."

Meanwhile...

Sherriff McCoy looks in on his latest victim.

"Bleeding to death rather slowly there, I might have to move that along, but first I must gather a few more supplies."

McCoy walks out of the small, dark room closing the door and securing it with several locks. He then slides the fake wall back into place and seals the outer door of the mysterious building with a bit of magic. The building itself appears to shimmer in the heat of the day and then becomes completely invisible.

The smell of alcohol hits LightMeDark like a semi truck. An empty stomach and a parched mouth go a long way towards making El feel sick at the thought of a drink. Never letting go of the open bottle in his hand, Paul drags himself along the ground and uses LMD's legs to pull himself to his unsteady feet.

"Elm-dee, boy, ha'yerself a drink," Paul says as he puts the half-empty bottle up to El's dry, cracked lips, "Don't struggle, son, good fer th' spirit, they says, and Ah reckin yeh could use it."

LMD fights to keep the bile from rising when Paul at last takes the now nearly empty bottle from his mouth.

"Good stuff, in'it. Only way t' keep a man sane in a place like this'un here. Got what she deserved at least, she did. Guess yeh could say she's layin' in th bed she made 'erself." Hysterical laughter escapes from Paul as he pulls out a long knife from the sheath that hangs from his belt. "Now, how'd yeh get here? How do I get outta this place? Tell me!"

The point of the knife held to within inches of El's left eye gives his mind something to latch onto as it struggles against the alcohol running through his veins. "What? I don't know! What is this place? I woke up in your field, that's all I remember."

"Ain't my field, 'n you know it, liar. Yer part o' Sally's little game. Been stuck here fer 16 damned years! I'm not gonna letcha fancy talk yer way outta tellin' me how t' get home, see my wife n kids. The truth!" Paul slashes the blade across LMD's chest, parting rope and flesh with cold indescrimination, "The truth now, or I swear I'll finish it!"

El looks down at his blood-covered hands holding the long, shallow wound closed. He hisses at the pain and says through clenched teeth, "I'm the same as you, trapped. That's the truth. Stop and think bef-"

"Liar! Tell me how t-" LMD raises his head in time to see something streak by from over his shoulder and strike the raving Paul between the eyes. Neither man has time to wonder what has happened as interrogator crashes down onto interrogated and the chair collapes under their combined weight.

El struggles out of his restraints and pushes Paul's limp body off of himself and to his side. As he stands, his gaze is drawn to the tip of the knife protruding from the dead man's back and the deformed banana lying next to the lifeless head.

After a few quiet moments, LMD turns away from the scene and walks out the double-doors of the shack and makes his way for the cottage to find some answers, and a bandage.

OOC: reality dragged me away, but I'm back.

IC: (Serenitree, engineering section) SR has the rude awakening of lying on the deck plating of engineering.

"I must have fallen asleep at my post." he ponders to himself as he struggles towards vertical. "Well I guess that's better than dead at the controls." He checks the main board and all is in the green. Things being well in hand he decides to take aquick stroll up to the the kitchen to have a snack and perhaps see if Seryn is recieving visitors now. After securing a healthy portion of leftovers from the risk of spoilage he then makes his way to Seryn's quarters where he finds a note pinned to her door.

He reads a message that informs him that Seryn has along with quite a few of the crew have gone through the portal in the security office to the American frontier circa mid to late 1800's in search of a missing Mai.
SR ponders this for a moment and then decides that he knows that Seryn's ability to take care of herself, though formidable is only equal to her ability to find trouble. He decides that though he may not be needed, he would like to see her again.
He returns to his quarters and gathers up a collection of gear.
He emerges wearing worn jeans, a ratty workshirt, heavy boots, a long coat and a wide brimmed hat. The clothes aren't really historically accurate, but they don't stand out at all. At a glance SR will appear to be just another drifter. SR has a modern .357 revolver in the pocket of his coat and big hunting knife on his belt, but he's hoping that he won't have to use either of them as he strides through the portal in the security office.

OOC: The quote amused me. I have a morbid sense of humor.

"Alright. I'm on comm channel 3." Grey points to the water tower towards the edge of town. "I'll be up there. Highest spot and It's got a good view of the building Serenity just spotted."

JADEHAND


"Comm 3, check. Water tow...... wait. This isn't right."
*JadeHand shakes his head trying to make the images in his head go away.*
"Grey, use channel 2, and try the roof of the hotel on the other side of the jail. This happened before, and I can't be here. If I'm here, people die. I have to go. Tell her I'm sorry."
*JadeHand removes a nametag from under a coat, changing shape to his normal self. He turns and leaves the group to return to the Sereni-Tree. Once on board, he heads to the hanger bay, and departs on board Ocean Cloud. Vanishing into the black.*

TheRealMe is puzzled at Jadehand's quick departure. He sighs.

"Very well, I will perform the insanely dangerous part of the plan."

SR wanders up to the group.

"So what's the plan?"


OOC: Sorry it's kind of lame, but it's 3:42 in the am and I'm sick as dog, but I'm still here.

*SR! Look!*

*turns round so that SR can admire the now sleeping and dribbling Fin*

"Isn't he lovely? ok, the plan is, we're springing Mai, we think she's in the jailhouse, and... actually i missed the plan... ok, but for now i'm going to find a spot where he is out of harms way, but i can still shot bad guys if necessary - see you soon!"

Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

TheRealMe draws figures in the dirt while others gather about to see.

“Okay, this rectangle is the jailhouse. It does not share a wall with other buildings, which is good. These are the surrounding buildings near it: a saloon, a general store, some residences… Here is the water tower on the edge of town. It has a good field of view of the area and I believe that TheGreyJedi is already there. Grey?”

“In position,” Grey replies over the com-link.

TheRealMe continues. “We want to cover the place from all directions, just in case our foes try to escape out the back or to nearby buildings. I figure that someone can walk up in the street to challenge Mai’s captor, draw his attention, perhaps call him out. If he does not come out, then at least his attention will be held while I open a dimensional portal inside the jailhouse, and some of us can invade directly.

“The problem, of course, is if our foe uses Mai as a hostage or a human shield. Without Static the Gunslinger here, I am not certain that we have the kind of weapon accuracy to take him out with Mai in the way. I don’t know how to solve this problem unless Jake7 can envelope her inside a force field. That is the best I can come up with, which means that Jake7 must come along with the assault force.

“So it seems to me that we have several roles. We need snipers in various locations to cover the jailhouse from all directions, of which Grey in the tower is one. We need some brave fool to walk up, talk to the guy, and draw his attention. Then we need an assault force to go inside via dimensional portal.

“We also have some problems. We don’t know the number, skill levels, or determination of our opponents. We don’t know what kind of armament they possess inside the jailhouse. We don’t know if perhaps there are underground tunnels by which they could escape. If we could do some reconnaissance, that would be great. But we are all newcomers here, unlikely to be trusted or allowed near.

"Oh, we also have my horse, Aluminum. It is possible we could try a deception whereby some of us try to turn in others to the local law, but that might be stupidly dangerous. I don't know.

“So, ideas? Anyone want to modify, comment on, or entirely re-write this plan? Any volunteers for various roles?”

SR to Fin "Hello there young man, I have every confidence that you are going to be a real handful as time passes, but for now I'm pleased to meet you. Do we have stories for you when you're old enough to understand them."


SR to Seryn : "He's very cute and I have to say in that respect he takes after his mother."






SR to TRM "Well I could go into that saloon over there and get good and drunk and start a brawl and get myself thrown in the pokey for the night till I sober up and when they let me out in the morning I might have some answers as to a lot of those 'we don't know's' that we have on the table. The more information we have the better our chances of success. Of course I'm just thinking it would be nice to have a drink. If that's what we're doing someone should hold on to my shooting iron, I don't want to kill anyone in the saloon and if the sherriff gets a good look at it he'll know there's something wrong with me. You don't bring a M16 to the Battle of the Bulge."


OOC: I can write the part about drinking and brawling, but once i'm clapped in irons I suggest someone else take over, because obviously you guys have a idea what's going on here, I'm just along for the ride.
