Latest Adventure: "What more could go wrong.."

In which:
After leaving a succesful job on Three Hills, ex-crew member Wolf attacked the crew (under orders from Niska), nearly killing Mal and leaving everyone else badly injured. With the bad guy caught the crew headed off to John T. T. F's brothers moon, unkown to them, being chased by Pirates (no not THAT Pirate )...

Who knows what will happen next...

but you gotta remeber the rules?

We're open to all authors and writing styles. This thread is just for fun! However, we do ask that a couple of simple rules be followed:

No killing of other author’s characters or of canon characters. In that vein, try to keep canon characters acting like themselves.

Please try to post with consideration for fellow authors and with some consistency to current story lines.

Sub-plots are great and we welcome them, but please try to make them fit into the current stories as much as possible.

Oh, and please keep things as close to PG as possible. If you have a more adult scene you'd like posted, send it to Ertia and She'll put it up on her site.

So…lets get flying....

*the ship lurched and threw wolf against the side of his cage.*

wolf" god dammit!"

*wolf picked himself up and walked over to the window, the hulking ship outside was bulbous and huge, wolf recognised it almost instantly.*

wolf" tidonas, now why has niska sent YOU?"

*he scrabbled around and found his arm and the tools he had 62 put there in the vents for him and started to put his arm back on, when that quoin jinn son of whore tidonas came aboard, wolf would be there, standing in the way.*

on the xg250

tidonas" fire another shot across their nose and prepare to board! captain mal is mine, but you all can have the rest!"

*the assembled crew cheered, it was time...*

Okay...where were we? Oh yes...being boarded. Again. By pirates. Again.

Ertia pulled herself up from the floor and frowned. "What the hell was that?"

She was on her way upstairs to the bridge when the ship jolted again.

"Magnetic grappler." Wash's voice came over the com. "Prepare to be boarded, people."

"Again?" Ertia frowned. This ship was not the one she'd signed on to so long ago. In fact, why the hell did she stay? 'Mal. Kaylee. Zoe. Wash. River. Pain. Fly. Even Simon.' No, she'd risked everything for this ship, and to hell if anyone was going to board it without her permission!

She slapped the com, "Kaylee?"

"She's down." John's voice came back.

"I need airlock override protocol transferred to the cargo bay." She answered as calmly as she could, "Can you do it?"

Her hands were already reaching for the suit, pulling it on. "JAYNE! PAIN! Get grenades, get a suit and get yer butt down here!
Everyone else, seal up everything that leads to the bay! EVERYTHING! DO IT NOW!"

*Pain stumbled to the com, hit the talk button and replied*

You got it babe. Two burly mercs with grenades comin' down.

*Pain clicked off the com and headed for the cargo bay quickly followed by Jayne. Jayne muttered to Pain as they quickly walked down the stairs and into the cargo bay*

Gorram pirates are strtin' ta get on my nerves.

*Pain replied as he headed over to where the suits were stored*

Yeah me too. Hey babe would it be shiny if'n we armed ourselves with guns too?

"Only what we have a case for, babe. We're gonna blow their gorram airlock from inside our cargo bay." She's already harnessing her suit to the cargo rails with webbing.

She sees Jayne tense up in anticipation, his face turning serious as he comprehends her plan. "We're gonna space the hwoon dahns."

"That's the plan." She clips their harnesses to the rails, giving them enough tether for mobility while ensuring that they don't get sucked out, then slaps the com again, "JOHN! OVERRRIDES? Have you got them?"

Glancing at Pain she blows him a kiss before picking up her helmet. "They'll lock in and try to blow our lock, thinking that we're barricaded against them. But I'm going to open the doors...If John can get me those overrides! ...and then..."

She gestures the grenades in their hands... "We're gonna lose pressure fast when those go off."

She grinned up at him, loving him more in that second than in all their time together. "Love you to, babe."

Then her grin faded and she glanced to Jayne, gave him a nod to make sure he was ready, and hit the com one more time. There was jolt as the airlock seal of the other ship hit Serenity's . "Zoe, you ready? Everything locked up? If this don't work, you guys have to be ready."

Zoe frantically closed the door between the cargo bay shut. "Were ready," she said as the door shut air tight.

Choo stood at the bottom of the stairs with his beaten up old AK over his shoulder. "Think its going to hold?"

"You better gorram hope so." she said as she set the enclosed infirmary to lock down. "Now get wolf out and lets see what he knows about these pirates..."

wolf" niskas."

*choo lead him to zoe.*

zoe" well? what do you know about these guys?"

wolf" their leader is called captain tidonas, operates like a military force, precise and thorough, he has a robotic eye, gives him incredible aim and sight, as well as the lazer that fires from the iris."

zoe" and what about the crew?"

wolf" theyll be artmed extreamly well, and...well, think of jayne, or pain, well each one of tidonases crew is like them."

zoe" hmm."

*she looked into the middle distance witjh a thoughtful look on her face.*

zoe" take him back to his crate."

wolf" i can help, you need me to help, think about that..."

*he walked back to his cage and sat down, rubbing his arm and enjoying the sensation of having all 4 limbs again.*

There was a thunk and a shudder, and Ertia spoke through her helmet mike to Pain and Jayne, "On three, I'm opening the doors. We're only going to get one shot at this. If you can, aim for the back-seals, the ones that attach their ship to their portlock...

One...
She put her right hand on the override, hoping to hell that John had figured out to transfer it.

Two...
Her left hand checked the straps on her harness once more. *Please, God. If I've ever asked for anything, it's that you don't let me sucked into space if this works!*

Three.
She slammed the override and the airlock slowly slid open to reveal a mob of armed men.

NOW!!!!!!

*Pain muttered something in Chinese as he saw the armed men in the other ship's cargo bay. He twisted the tops of his grenades and chucked them at the far corner of the other ship's airlock seal. Jayne did the same but threw one of his grenades into the cargo bay. Jayne said into Ertia's suit com*

Ertia you better close those doors now 'fore some of them armed men decide to come over. And I promise they ain't comin' over for tea.

John ran to the engine room door to see if it had worked. He had done this type of thing before but not to a Firefly when he reached the door to the cargo bay he looked through the small window just as Pain through a grenade instantly he was down so much violence and hatred over whelmed his brain he inched his way as far as he could away from the door before colapsing completely.

Ertia held her hand over the button and waited, hearing Jayne's voice in her helmet, "NOW, GORRAMIT!"

The grenades bounced.

The men charged forward.

A raze of gunfire strafed across the cargo bay of Serenity, scattering holes in crates and sending rounds ricocheting.

Then there was the first explosion. Light. Sound. Chaos. Terror.

The ripping of plexi-shield.

The shattering of glass.
Screams, and then a rush of air streamed through cargo bay, sucking at Ertia's suit, pulling her harness tight.
The vague impression of parts and people jumbled and flying struck her and she slammed her hand down as the vacuum of space filled the void where the airlock of the other ship had tied to Serenity.

*Pain waited til the exterior cargo bay door closed and the klaxon indicating that the repressurization process was starting sounded. Pain watched as the light switched from red to green and unlatched his helmet, hearing the sound of air hissing as he broke the seal. He took it off, looked at Ertia and said*

I believe now would be the time to tell Wash to get us the hell outta here.

"GET US THE HELL OUTTA HERE!" shouted Zoe

"yes dear, right away dear, oh dear god dear." Wash muttered as he flicked switches, slamed buttons, and set the throttle to full power.

"Kaylee, full burn please." said Wash as if nothing near-death was happened

you know what happens next..to preatty to put into words :p...

"Should be at the destination about 10 hours," said Wash. "8 if you really want to push it..."

"Push it." said Zoe carmly "I'm going to check on the others..."

Ertia pulled off her helmet and grinned at Pain as she felt the surge of Serenity's engines at full burn.

"Ya know, babe, why can't we get a ship that isn't always being borded by people who want us dead? Maybe your uncle is hiring?" She grabbed the door and flung it open, finding John unconscious.

"John?" The suit was bulky as she dropped to her knees, peering for signs of life.

"What happened?" Choo asked

"Not sure...Found him lying there..." mummbled Erita.

What's up with John?

*Ertia looked up at Pain and replied*

I don't know babe I just found him laying here.

*Simon checked John's vitals and said*

He's alive just unconcious. Pain you and Choo bring him into the infirmary.

*Pain replied*

Sure thing doc. Choo you get his legs.

*Choo nodded, bent down and picked up John by the legs as Pain picked him up, putting his arms underneath John's. The two men then carried John into the infirmary and set him down in the exam chair. Ertia watched from the doorway as Simon hooked John up to various monitors. Simon turned to the three of them and said*

If you three don't mind I need to do some test and observations on John here.

*Pain replied*

Do what you gotta do doc.

*Pain stepped out of the infirmary, putting an arm around Ertia's shoulder and watched as the doc went to work on John.*

Alright, not HIGHWAY. Just...don't ride like me. Ever.

In related news, a Fave Cyborg thread has popped up! Cast your votes for 13, (hopefully your fave 'borg) the Pistol-Pants Bot-Boy!

"Okay. Plan. Need a plan."

You could always just try to KILL them all. That seems to be the fallback.

"Shut up, don't have time for you."

Alright, there's two possibilities. Either keep your mouth shut once you get back, pretend you haven't been gone for (insert however much time passed between Three Hills and the present), or tell them everything that's happened, including the offer. Use the info you have to help them out.

Three possibilities, actually. Running blood...beating heart...soft breath...

Simon fully tested John and turned confused at the results. John sturred and jolted up suddenly.

"Way to go John another stupid move by you" John said to himself

Simon turned around as John climbed off of the examining table.

"You suffered no phsyical injuries just serious mental trauma"

"Can I go now"

"What caused such trauma"

"Grenades" John leaped of the table and turned to Kaylee. "How is she"

"Fine I gave her stiches and she should wake up soon"

John turned and walked toward the door. "You should tell her" Her turned and skipped away.

WOW Kaylee can operate the ship while unconcious she really is a darn fine maechanic

Welcome home, 13! Glad the surgury went well and sending thoughts for speedy recovery!
And ya, I wondered how we were gonna pull off hard burn with Kaylee and John both down...Maybe Shepherd Book was in the Engine room? Yah, that's it!


Ertia sighed as she stripped off her suit and shoved it back into the closet. Wrapping both arms around Pain she hugged him close. "Pain, if Wolf's right, they aren't going to stop coming. There's only one way to end this."

"We aren't turning over Mal." Pain assured her, but she looked up at him with crystal clarity in her eyes.

"We have to kill Niska. We should have done it the last time, but we didn't. One way to end this now, to set Wolf free and get past this... and that's to kill him."

Zoe's calm voice spoke behind her. "And how are we gonna do that? We're outgunned, outnumbered. Even if we call in every favor we have left, we're still just a single bullet compared to his battalion."

"I dunno." Ertia shrugged, "But we're smart. We're resourceful. We've survived this long, and not by running."

"We need to make a stand." Zoe said the words slowly, still mulling the possibility even as she affirmed it.

"We'll get to John's brothers, let Mal heal. Then we find a way to stop them." Pain agreed, although his eyes, too, held uncertainty.

"Not stop them. Kill HIM. Once and for all." Ertia reiterates, wondering when she stopped being the pacifist and started becoming the killer. Just today her plan had taken how many lives?

Quietly, she sighs, "Anybody see Shepherd Book?" Silently she added, 'I could use a prayer.'

You could see if'n he's in his room. That's where he usually is. If'n not then he'd probably be in the galley.

No worries, Choo. It was in the second post of this thread... s'okay. Got it covered. Kaylee never actually answered Wash...so we don't know that it was her who set full burn...


"Thanks, Babe. But it's not that big of a ship. I'll find him." She gave his hand a squeeze before turning and making her way through the ship. Every step seemed to drag her down, and it was more than just her recent head injury, or the draining of the adrenalin from their latest escape.

Shepherd wasn't in his room. Nor was he in the Galley. She was just about to call him over the com, worried that he'd somehow been in the cargo bay and gotten sucked out, when she heard a distinct clank from the engine room.

If Kaylee and John were in the infirmary...then who was in... WOLF... If he was screwin' with their engine she was gonna take him out!

Dropping into Pain's bunk, she accessed the hidden panel and pulled out her laser pistol. Half-charge. That was plenty.

Turning sidewise, she edged down the corridor towards the engine room door. Another clank, a rasp of metal... She held her pistol in both hands and spun into the doorway, leveling her gun, "DROP IT!"

"I don't think I should I do that." Book's calm voice answered her. In his hands was the directional capacitor. "These tend to be delicate."

"Shepherd?" Ertia lowered her pistol, stunned. "What are you..."

"Oh, I know a thing or two about engines." He explained in that calm, reasonably cheerful tone. "I thought with Kaylee injured, I could at least do what I know how to do."

He settled the capacitor in place and locked it down, neatly reattaching wiring and closing the hatch. "There. Now, what can I do for you?"

"Shepherd...I ..." There was a long silence as she gathered her thoughts. Then she shut down her pistol and dropped it onto Kaylee's toolbox before falling to her knees beside the hammock. "Forgive me, father, for I have sinned."

"You okay Wolf?" Choo asked as he went to sit in the cargo bay for a while (latest iBook: "Terraforming, smuggling and lost teeth. Life on the Rim by T. M." )

*Pain watched Ertia leave. He knew she was having a tough time what with the recent attack and all. Pain let out a sigh and headed for the common shower. He thought to himself as he entered the shower room and closed the door*

Maybe a long shower will calm my nerves and help me think.

*Pain turned on the water, disrobed, and entered the shower, closing the door behind him. He let the water run down his body as he thought of the recent events, his career, the choices he could make about it, and the love of his life.*

errr...I'm in the Engine room talking to Book, Wolf.

"Ertia?" Book's hand dropped lightly to her shoulder, "I didn't think you were Catholic, child."

She shook her head, "I'm not! I wasn't.. I don't know. I'm not me anymore."

Tortured eyes met his kindly gaze, "I'm changing, Shepherd. Goddess help me, I wanted to kill those men today! I've ...when did I become a murderer?"

"You've done what you needed to do to protect those around you." His voice is firm, calming, like a balm, "You are the mother. This ship is your child. And you fought to protect it."

Tears roll down her cheeks and she drops her forehead to his knee, "I killed...killed them. Them...and before them, Wolf's men with that grenade, and before that... I'm... how many? How much blood?"

Book closed his eyes, feeling her grief. How well did he know it? How did one who swore to do good reconcile that oath with the oath to protect? "God knows your heart, child. Trust him."
Remembering that she was a Goddess worshipper he hesitated..."Trust HER. She knows her children, often when we know not ourselves."

six or seven posts back, when Ertia asked Pain and Zoe if they'd seen Shepherd Book. She then found Book in the Engine Room, solving the mystery of who set the ship for hard burn when Kaylee and John were both unconscious.

*Pain turned off the shower, stepped out, and dried himself off. He then got dressed and walked out of the shower room and headed for the galley. Pain made his way up the stairs, past the engine room where he could hear Ertia and Book talking, and leaned up against the doorframe. He sniffed the air, noticed Guy was cooking something and said to him*

Hey Guy what are you cookin'?

John made his way to the engine room to work on the engine and found Kaylee there sobbing to Book. The feelings he got from her the pain and confusion. So familiar. He thought aabout his own past the own blood he'd spilled how it tore him inside when his brother followed suit. He thought about Serenity if he could make it his home and how to prove himself to her crew. He would protect them. This Niska guy was wanted out of their hair he would do it. Carefully, he climbed up the stairs and into Shuttle 2. He was a professional he could get in get out and get the job done. He knew the shuttle wouldn't take him far but he had to try. He disconnected from Serenity and zoomed off. As he flew into the black he heard breathing be him. He turned. River was on the shuttle.
