I watched as everyone followed this Archer fellow to his airship, and I looked back behind me at the apparently forgotten 3 goons, who were all still tied up and unconscious in a corner of Cid's bar. I felt my still-bruised-though-now-excellently-wrapped-and-treated-by-Jyu's-caring-hands ribs twinge, and I let out a sigh before I turned back around, walked over to a stool by the bar, jumped up onto it, and waited for the Sky Police that Cid had called earlier to arrive.

I felt a slight shiver run down my spine, when I look over at the hopefully tied up tightly goons, and kicked my feet a little which just barely reached the ground from the high stool, and hoped that the Sky Police got here soon.

I was looking forward to seeing these guys put away behind bars.

"Hmm...there's no particular model for the bazooka lance. It's basically an over-sized jousting lance with the front serves as a projectile. It's more of a ballistic weapon than a melee after all...." (OOC: I'm getting the idea from Valkyria Chronicles for the PS3 The guy on the left has one.)

*BANG BANG BANG* "This is the Sky Police. Open the door. We were called about a disturbance."

I sighed with relief, as I heard the police banging on the door.

I quickly jumped down off the bar stool, and quickly made my way over to the door. Once there, I hurriedly opened the door and let in 3 officers. I then quickly led them over to the 3 thugs, pointed at them, and began to to weave a fabricated tale of these 3 goons busting in to try to rob the bar, and how the owner and his employees had taken them all down.

I certainly couldn't tell the cops the truth behind the goon's attack. If they also knew that I was a Sky Pirate, they'd haul my Elvaan tush right off to jail right along with these goons.

I certainly wasn't going to let that happen.

As I finished wrapping up my tale, one of the officers asked where the owner was. I pointed out a window to the other airship docked alongside Cid's.

OOC: Another game I've never played.

IC: "Which is the pri-mar-y func-tion?" inquired the Moogle-bot, "pro-jec-tile or me-lee weap-on? As its a hy-brid weap-on, it can be list-ed un-der ei-ther. Ex-am-ple of weap-on type with var-i-ents un-der both would be gun-blades."

Ronon was watching Cid's interaction with the Moogle-bot from a doorway behind the counter. Exactly when he had arrived wasn't clear as he had made no obvious noise when he did. Deciding to see about 'special' ordering one of these bazooka lances for Cid, or at least so Ronon could study one himself, he put two fingers in his mouth and whistled....loudly.

"Alright, everyone," he called, "I've found the two items I was originally looking for in the back as well as some other items for those not here yet."

He placed the wrapped bundles in his arms upon the counter in front of him and waited for everyone there to gather round. For those not there presently, he would provide them with the items he had choosen at a later point in time.

The Moogle-bot sweat dropped.

"Suggestion: Switch to decaf," it intoned, ready to nimbly dodge any hostile reaction to its comment.

Walking over to Draco, it proceed to poke him in the leg.

"Question: Will you require guidance to the shops as well at this time?" it asked.

He looked at the little robotic fellow. Interesting contraption. In the corner of his eye, he saw as the cops were greeted by the elvan girl 'She's got it under controll'

He looked at it and said.
"Pardon me? I knda wasn't listening to the whole ruckusthat was happening around here. So My question is...What's "The Shops"?" Draco asked the contraption.

"Response: The 'shops' are the facilities that Master Archer has aboard his airship intended to operate for sales of weapons, protectives, items, and other things to paying customers," replied the Moogle-bot as she tried to estimate Draco's BAC.

(OOC: it's a decent game, but it's a PS3 exclusive) "Nah, never mind about the Bazooka Lance, it's too hefty to carry anyway. But it's exclusively a projectile, anti-vehicle weapon. Damn thing's too heavy for melee. So anyway, which one's mine?" He walked past the Moogle-bot and towards the counter.

(OOC-- Uhhh... i was gonna post but then i realized that this question is just nagging me too much XDD

guys why do we even NEED weaponry? >w>
not to burst anyone's bubble or be a kill joy or a trigger-prude, but-- yeah, aren't we all neutral? what's the point of such EXTENSIVE ammunition and the liek?

and if y'all still wanna do the whole weaponry beez-neez, that's cool-- the only request i have is that Abel set up a list with stats and/or pictures (for krisk those of us that don't care as much XDD)

(OOC - Thank you! XD

Which is why I have Raven still over at Cid's bar actually dealing with the plot with the police and goons, since everyone else seems to have forgotten that the goons were still there, as they all skipped happily over to Archer's weapon airship. )

"Naw. I'm cool, I'm actually thinking of lying off some time out of the warzone for a longer-time. But thanks."He said with a grin. He looked back at the alcohol cabinet, my my soo many beverages, too bad most of them don't classify as alcoholic (According to Draco, a beverage isn't considered alcoholic if it does not contain more than 38% of alcohol in it XD).

Well it was ice to look at it but there were some more things to fix up in this place. Draco stood up and started working on a broken table that was a result of collateral damage done during the brawl. He looked at the policeman.

"How are you doin' officer?"

~Officer Red (cause he has red hair )~

I turned to the fellow who had just spoken up, pulled out my notepad and pen, and asked him, "I'm doing well, young man. Can I also get your take on what happened here in this bar, since the owner seems to be missing, even though he was the one who called for us to come out here."

(OOC: Because Cid has a Spear-fetish XP)

"Well? I want mine so I could get back to my ship. I heard something dock...." Cid crossed his arms and tapped the floor with his foot.

I had opted to lean against a wall in a typical lazy, don't give a rat's arse, manner. I watched the officer preparing to take down notes, hoping to get some information from the soldier by a chair.

"Hm...the Sky Police sure has gotten more orderly with things in the last three years..." I noted. Most likely due to increased Pirate activity. Truthfully, I had no problems with the Sky Pirates; they'd actually helped me once or twice. Not all of them were bad...they all had a thing against authority, yes, but they weren't all hardened criminals...

I turned to give a brief glance to a girl who had appeared to be waiting for the Sky Police this whole time. She looked a little beat up, but I couldn't tell for sure. Deciding not to pry, I simply pushed off the wall and headed over to the young woman, and noticed she appeared to be Elvaan. Huh...rare to see Elvaan people on airships.

Giving a small nod with a smile, I spoke, "Don't believe I had a chance to meet you." I gave the Elvaan girl a small bow, which was a custom I had picked up from an Elvaan friend. An old custom, but I liked being old fashioned at times, "Name's Ferrumo Vitali. You friends with Jyuuki and Shihna as well?"

I watched as the red-haired officer took a statement from the guy at the bar counter, and then started slightly as the guy who had been making out with Jyu in the closet approached me, bowed in the time-honoured Elvaan custom, and then introduced himself to me.

I nodded back shyly, and replied quietly, "I actually only met Jyu and Shin today. They along with Cid helped me out of a pretty tight spot involving those 3 goons tied up on the ground. Um...if it's not too rude to ask...may I ask what relation you have with Jyu? Because when she first saw you she was pretty upset, now she seems to be pretty okay with you being here. I just don't...want to see her hurt, ya know...I've only just met her, but she's helped me out so much already, so I just don't want to see her get hurt," I said, as I pushed a loose strand of blond hair behind my ear, and looked nervously down at the ground.

I stopped in my happy feet-ed tracks which caused my arm-buddy to stop as well (a few of her things jumbled around tee) as I glared down at the moogle. What the hell, what kind of robot moogle things were these? What a 'tude right? Sheesh. Either way I chose to just shake my fist at it and retort something about it's mother and/or how it was an adopted moogle bot by insecure parental units but I had to stop when my keen ears caught a sound from a few yards back, back in our bar.

*BANG BANG BANG* "This is the Sky Police. Open the door. We were called about a disturbance."

I sighed with relief, as I heard the police banging on the door.

THAT'S WHAT WAS BUGGING ME!

I blaunched in surpreez when I realized the thing that was bothering me in the back of my mind had reared it's authoritative head in the shape of a phone call answered. Which was also long forgotten by the shiny that was useless weaponry (by the way, why? Big guns were only fun with bosses anyhow) by the majority except one new "family" member.

The three idiots that were TIED UP AND STUFF.

Dur, Jyuuki I couldn't help to think as I smacked myself on the forehead. Though you really couldn't blame this ninja; I really didn't have a clue when the blues were called or anything-- it wasn't my fault the cops had shown up TODAY to take care of things-- Cid's Bar had a rep when it came to calls like "oh my goddesses, can you guys come over and arrest these people?" We seriously weren't liked and treated as first priority in the eyes of our "awesome" police sector.

Nevertheless, I figured I didn't wanna look at all the weapons until officially moving in so I let go of Shihna's arm (hid her gun in my belt loop tee) and snuck over towards the window where I could see the bar-room from where we were standing.

As I finished wrapping up my tale, one of the officers asked where the owner was. I pointed out a window to the other airship docked alongside Cid's.

I blinked and couldn't help the reflex of my face contorting to a happy smile with wide eyes nor my arm raising to wave excitedly back at Raven. How fun bwahhahaa, there she was and here I was and we're in different places and IT WAS SO EXCITING. But then I stopped in place when I realized that she was pointing in my general direction and not at me in my general direction-- I looked over to my right, where the Old Man Cid --who was now walking closer but with his attention on one of those snarky little moogle-bot things-- and then back at Raven and the officer she was speaking to.

OH.

I'd known of the geezer's fanboy phase (so not a phase) with spears and the like and I couldn't help but place the pieces together. Cid wasn't on our ship because Mister Big Ship Cyclops probably said something about spears or something and now the po-po were in our bar and we weren't there to TAKE CARE OF EVERYTHING OH NOES.

I blinked at the situation and giggled to myself slightly. Seriously we were lucky to be able to have an OUNCE of professionalism within our team enough to deal with situations like this-- considering how we were. Oh well, looks like experience had to make up for our genetic make-up faults. Anyway, I threw Raven a thumbs up before turning around and attacking my wrinkly employer.

(OOC: Because Cid has a Spear-fetish XP)

"Well? I want mine so I could get back to my ship. I heard something dock...." Cid crossed his arms and tapped the floor with his foot.

"OIIIIIII OLD MAAAAAAN!" I squealed loudly in his face (y'know his hearing was bad and stuff, I had to) as I grabbed onto his arm. A look of annoyance crossed his face and I grinned slightly as our friend The Vein (we need a book of names ASAP for you) greeted me with it's normally angryfais'd throbbing and I began yanking him and Shihna (with my other arm) back to the ship (I kicked the moogle he was talking to out of the way, stupid robots). "Guesswhat? Guesswhat? Guesswhat? Our old friend's are hereeeee! And I think they wanna talk to us, maybe because we were the ones that kinda-- were there... y'know. Let's go!"

With that informative and totally plausible reason why we should backtrack, I yanked their arms and dragged them out of Mister Cyclops' weapon storage area place thingamajig and into the main bar area, where we were met with knowing glances from the three police men.

"WE. HAVE. ARRIVED!" I declared before posing-- entrances like this really called for such things.

~Raven~

I sighed with relief as I saw everyone return from that Archer guy's airship, and re-enter the bar. I gave a small bow to Jyu's I guess boyfriend? And then hurried over to Jyu, grabbed her hands in mine, and said in a relieved voice to her, "I'm so glad you guys are back. The police have a few questions that I wasn't sure how to answer."

~Officer Brown (brown hair of course XD)~

"Which one of you is the owner? According to the young Elvaan, these 3 thugs tried to rob your bar, and you all took them down. Is that correct?"

I grinned cheekily before squeezing one of her hands with one of my own gloved ones. Only a day in and already she was picking up after us-- what a freaking trooper. "Hey no problemo! Good thing ya held them here like ya did," I happily replied before lowering my voice and whispering in the most not obvious way ever, "they.. uh, don't like us very much. We kinda have a history of bugging them-- but it looks like these three are new by looking at 'em."

I stood again from my totally inconspicuous whisper-session with Raven and crossed my arms. I never really did like cops-- whatever they did, they always did it by the book and THE book was something I never really enjoyed reading.

~Officer Brown (brown hair of course XD)~

"Which one of you is the owner? According to the young Elvaan, these 3 thugs tried to rob your bar, and you all took them down. Is that correct?"

I waved off his stupid stiff tone and replied nonchalantly, throwing a thumb in our employer's direction. "That is the owner. Though you guys can talk to any of us if ya want-- we were there y'know, that and the owner is kinda sorta... old (memory go bye-bye, hehe)."

Officer Red continued questioning the patron by the bar, while Brown went over the the older gentleman the spiky-haired young lady had just pointed to as the owner. Officer Blond then walked over to the young lady, smiled a dashing sparkling grin at her, flipped open his notebook, and said to her, "may I have your digits..I mean your details on what happened here." He then gave her a small, discreet wink and waited to hear what she had to say.

I blink momentarily before totally getting back on my S-class game. "Suuuuuuure, Officer." Seriously who knew that I, Sexy Ninja Extraordinaire Jyuuki, could attract someone of authority and that excelled in what I always and forever thunk failed and would completely wouldn't wanna try a piece of? Really I could just grin forever and ever and pose and just brag the ears (living or not who knew) of my brothers that had always said I would end up an ugly stupid hag or a nun or so annoying no one would try a slice of that if they were the last sexually driven people in the world.

Well, I thunk grinning before lidding my eyes all on my S-class game, I couldn't blame him...hehehehe--

Until I had to smack myself back to the present and glare, because glaring scared people and people couldn't help but get scared at my glaring. Coming full-circle is always an awesome thing. "Okie dokes, well you know how we called you a few hours ago? And you took awhile to get here and totally interrupted what we were doing? WELL, I guess we could forgive you for that cos those guys? Over there? Ya see 'em? Yeah the one with the blood and the groans and all the unconsciousness and yeah them. Those girly-men busted in, all roar and overflowing with testosterone and hungry for girl parts -- they were chasing Raves here -- and the like and we totally took them down (well mostly me, and my girlfriend here kinda took a blunt hit to the back, which sucks) then the old man owner of the bar kinda ... tripped. YEAH TRIPPED! He tripped on ...someone's head, because I was fighting too and yeah so he tripped and his spear kind of went all "GRAWR FREEDOM FROM OLD MAN CLUTCHES" and attacked one of those guys' shoulders!" I stopped to punch the air and smirk. "Then the rest went down like fight club and we ended up tying them up and putting them in the middle of the totally DESTROYED barroom, and that reminds me: Are you guys gonna give us a letter or something to help out with the damages? Cos I think you should really really do that -- Officer~"

I leaned forward abit, eyes lidded for ultimate seductionization and slowly slid a ninjatic hand in one of my shorts pockets and pulled out a small bundle of stapled bills that I got for speeding in various places with my old (now broked baaaw) hover-board and a few vehicles I uh, borrowed and slowly slid it up the officer's uniformed chest. I grinned and whispered all whispery-like, "That reminds me Officer...Red, ya think you could possibly make these... disappear for me?"

Hey, I grasp.

What?

Officer Blond's eyebrow raised as he listened to the story flowing from the hot chick's mouth, writing down notes, and nodding his head until she began slipping what looked like speeding tickets up his chest.

He pinned the young lady with his sky-blue eyes, and asked in a low voice, "are you trying to uh...bribe me, my dear young lady?"
