Early's move

Early feels his mind slipping towards insanity. He finds himself in a room and a reaver girl hands him some raw meat. Early eats it hungrily. Next to him, a reaver sits on a wooden bench and takes a crap.

"That's somewhat disturbing," Early thinks, but the voice in his head seems very far away. His space ship is all but forgotten. Early notices that most of the Reavers are naked, and all the men have just one testicle.

For the first time in his life, Early feels somewhat normal. As if he belongs.

Early cackles wildly and begins planning to take over the Reaver ship. To become their leader, and guide them in an attack against Serenity.

CIARA

Inara's turn

Inara smiles sweetly down at Book, who is squinting up at the bright light Simon is currently shining into his face.

"Don't worry about that now, Shepherd. If that's what it took to get you back to us, then it's a small sacrifice."

She suqeezes his hand as she walks by on her way to see what she can accomplish on the bridge.

"pray for him?" she breathes...

She glances back at the room full of those she loves, one unconcious, one with injuries too subtle to see--and says a silent prayer of her own.

Inara makes her way up the stairs and to the doorway to the helm. Zoe is still there, piloting them to Hara.

You look tired, do you want me to try to wake Wash now? I'm sure you want to go see Mal's fine with your own eyes.

awaiting response

End Inara's turn

Kaylee's Move:

"Looks like everyone's ok now. I'll just go check on the engines, make sure there aren't anymore surprises waiting for us. If we burn hard, should be ta Hara in a couple hours."

With one last (wistful) glance at Simon, exits to Engine Room.

..WASH'S MOVE

Wash's eyes open. He sits up.

"Wow. That wuz a helluva thing."

He yawns. He stretches. He winces. Every bit of him hurts. He tries to find a part of his body that's not hurting.

He shrugs. He winces. He chuckles to himself and winces again at the pain, causing him to chuckle even more.

He gets out of bed slowly. Already the remnants of his dream is fading from his memory. Like sand in the palms of one's hands, it's just slipping away, but he does remember one thing that he thinks matters.

He was a little hard on River. She means no one any harm, and he's been irrational and cruel, and a downright scaredy cat. Sure perhaps she's dangerous, but everyone on board the ship is dangerous under certain circumstances; even himself. Perhaps having spent the last several hours afraid he was losing his own sanity, has offered him a taste of perspective.

He wants to apologize even if she doesn't understand him. Not for her sake, but for his own.

And that's what makes him get out of bed, give himself a bit of a stand up sponge bath, as best as he can manage in his condition... Actually part of it he does sitting down. ..That's what encourages him to put on some fresh clothes, cover the most sore parts of his body with gauze from his wife's first aid kit under the bed, and then slowly make his way back up the ladder to the hall.

Slowly but with sober confidence, he then makes his way to the infirmary, thinking perhaps River will be there with her brother. When he gets to the infirmary, he just stands there in silence.

SERENITYSSON

Jaynes turn:

OOC: Quickly checks his testicles and sighs with relief...)

Jayne wanders around the ship making sure everything is okay, starts gathering the bodies of the dead invaders (after stripping them of all useable equiptment) and jetisons their bodies out the airlock. After a long a tiring day, he heads to the galley for some food and then to find out Sernity's status with escaping the Reavers.

Also... I can kill you with my brain...

OOC
Humble, it's OK with me if Ciara 'covers' Simon.
She is doing a great job.

Between getting packed up and dealing with the loose ends of my mothers estate I have been a bit slack in the relaxin' department.

But I WILL be back!!!

At least as soon as we can wrap up this gorram business with the house and my older brother. I HATE being executor AND the younger brother!!!

If I can't return soon, I'll let you know so you can find another Simon.

I enjoy playing him, but I don't want to be a 'roadbump' in the storytelling.

Catch ya soon!

Fly free...

Satisfied, Book once again closes his eyes, and his body seems to disintegrate .... floating into pieces up through the ceiling and out into the night of infinite space, its essence travelling throughout the 'verse.... (hours pass) and he awakes again to find himself alone in the empty medical bay

SUCCATASH

Early's turn:

Early eats his raw meat without wondering what it is. He suddenly hears excited Reavers jabbering, and the cries of a helpless woman. Reaver Scouts are bringing a captured human female on board.

Jubil Early, now half-reaver, crowds closer to the female captive, and his stomach groans with hunger. "Fresh meat," thinks Early.

The woman is put into a cage. A mean-looking Reaver chases everyone away. But a few minutes later, when no one is looking, Early approaches her. Her skirt is in rags, and her blouse is torn, exposing one breast. It is fairly large sized.

Early notices the sleeves are too long and it doesn't fit right in the shoulders. Early decides that the blouse isn't "fairly large sized" after all, but Extra Large Sized.

"Your blouse is Extra-large sized," says Early. It's big, much too big for you."

"Are you a Reaver?" the girl asks.

"Reefer? Well, no, but I have a mighty bong."

"I said, Reaver, are you a Reaver?" she says in a soft voice.

"No," answers Early. "I'm a Reaver."

OOC Gorramit... it's been hours.. everyone needs to move!!! Niska should be in a security cell or some such by the time Book awakes and Mal should be hidden from Book's view by Books point of view. Everyone else needs to have done something else in the interim... or else!

- not that it needs to be documented or nuthin.

OOC: Well Wash is just now outside the infirmary looking for River and Simon. To be honest, I've read through this thread and still don't have a clear picture where everyone is in relation to everyone else. Maybe it's just I haven't finished my first glass of tea for the day, but I'm about as in the dark as Wash is, and I actually read everything.

CIARA

OOC --*grumblegrumble* OK ok I guess I can get Mal to bed *evil grin* since Wash is up, my scene with Zoe is useless--soooo...ok I'll try to do that

OK--this is the character placement, far as I know

Zoe: On deck, piloting the ship
Inara: on deck with Zoe--discussing Wash
Wash: standing outside Infirmary door
Book: Infirmary,being examined by Simon, medbed 2
Simon: Infirmary, with Book and Mal
Mal: Infirmary, medbed 1
Kaylee: Engine room
River: quarters
Early: with Reavers
Niska: bound and maybe gagged on infirm. floor
Jayne: floating around Infirmary/hallway

yeah, somebody needs to get Niska to holding quarters--I can try to get Mal to his quarters--that'll leave Book and Simon in there

OOC: Scene with Zoe? I can go back to sleep. I don't have to be up yet. As a matter of fact, WAIT I GOT IT! Wash is still in bed! Not the infirmary!

..WASH's MOVE

Wash suddenly wakes up again, and realizes getting up and out of bed and to the infirmary was just all part of the dream. And so is waking up again. He's still dreaming.

He then finds himself sitting without an environmental suit on the hull of the ship. Sitting in the classic 'thinking man' position, contemplating that he might could still be dreaming and not realizing it. Then he realizes that he realizes it. He realizes that he's out in space, clean, with no wounds, but with no clothes on, and a tattoo on his butt, thinking that maybe he's dreaming inside a dream, but if he's out in space he should unceremoniously explode due to the sudden decrease in air pressure around him. He inhales. He exhales. He checks his pulse.

The stars sparkle behind him.

"Okay... So. How do I wake up?"

He looks around.

"It's pretty out here.."

He looks around some more. He shrugs.

"I better get back inside."

Wash stands up, but the camera switches POV to show us his backside as he makes his way to an airlock.

..END MOVE

OOC: So, should I bother to put up the synopsis with the thread openers, or no? I had everything nearly done, but my computer crashed, so I'd have to start it over. I could cut & paste the existing Act 3 stuff into the "new" thread. Whatever y'all think...
