The Fantastic Group of Awesomeness :D discussion

This RP starts at the port on the planet earth, the ships have docked and the men can go anywhere from the shops om the docks to vjsiting there families, but also this is where stowaways hind looking for a sbip to sneak on to.

The Good fleet and the Bad fleet can meet here or in the sky it up to you.

HAVE FUN

Adele looked around in amazement as she walked along the docks. People were everywhere, making last minute adjustments to their ships before flight. She smiled as she inhaled the sweet metalic air with a hint of oil. She laughed happily and hurried along the docks to the Black Diamond. Even though she had been a mate on the ship for almost two years, it never got old to her. Returning to the ship was always like returning to home.

((One question. Is this futuristic like in Treasure Planet, where it's almost steampunk with a mixture of past and future? Or is this futuristic like Star Trek with lots of high tech stuff?))

((More Star Trek. :D))

Harley paced back and forth on the huge boat. The top of his ship was down, since he didn't plan on flying today. It was just going to be a simple ocean for now. Harley didn't like the feel of flying anyways. He walked over to the command center, looking for the weather patterns. "Anything we can't handle?"

((WHOA. I had totally forgotten about this roleplay, but I'm so glad you posted!!! This is going to be fun!!

oh, do you mind if I rp with you? Pretty please? :P))

((NO! You can't!...
Just keeding :) go ahead!))

((:D!!! you're my favorite now :P))

"There's nothing this ship can't handle, I swear," Adele answered, shaking her head as a small smile plalyed at her lips. Her eyes never left the data screen, her fingers flying over the transluscent controls as she sifted through the information, picking out the best flight patterns and passageways. "Have you decided on a destination, Captain?" she asked, pausing as she glanced up at him.

"Let's be a little old fashioned today. Out to see, then?" he asked, having a "pirate" accent. He pushed his hands into his jacket pockets, looking over her and at the command center. "What all is out there today? Any stray ships? Monsters?" He asked with a chuckle.

"There's a few solar flares, if you count those as monsters," Adele smirked. She shook her head, her fingers tapping out a few more maps and figures. "Looks like it's pretty clear out there, at least in this quadrant."

"Ah, then let's sail out!" Harley pulled off his jacket and tossed it behind him. He knew some robot would pick it up later. All his life, Harley had known sailing, but then, ships started to fly and not sail. His whole family was based upon sailing. He looked around at the barnacle covered, rough crew he had. He beamed with proud. No one were real pirates anymore, only him and his crew. No one else was any good at it but them either. Soon, they were going to be feared much more than the flying ships.

((Grr! :( I had this nice post all typed out and what does it do? It decided to have a problem and not save my post :( sadness))

Adele turned her concentration to the screen before her, her fingers dancing across the consol. Along with the crewmen beside her, they woke up the ship with gentle rumbles and hums as a message was sent to the dock marking their departure. "Sailing out," Adele chuckled softly to herself, as the ship released from the port and started to fly.

((Alright, I have a question. Do you want this to be Star Trek-ish? Or steam punk-ish?))

((I thought it was star treckish from what you all said up there, but I was hoping for more of a steam punkish thing :P sorry bout your post btw! Maybe our ship could be the only steam punk one..? I don't know, I just really like steam punk..))

Harley looked out to the sky as the flew off. He wondered how far away the ocean could be. That's where he belonged, not in the sky, but everyone else was in the sky too. He really had no choice. Harley looked down at Adele, raising an eyebrow. "How are you so young and on my ship?"

((Well, that was a long time ago, and since it looks like it's just you and me, I think it's safe to say we can do whatever we want :P Personally, I think it would be fun to have it steam punk. Have you ever seen the show Firefly? Or Serenity? It's out in space, but more fantasy than Star Trek. I kind of wanted to do something more like that))


Trying not to pout, Adele laid her arm on the back of her chair as she looked up at him to prevent herself from crossing her arms childishly. "I'm not that young," she said defensively as she looked up at him. "Besides, you're the youngest captain of a ship I've ever met, so I don't think you're one to point fingers."

((I'm going to update her charrie a little, since it's been a while. I think I'm going to make her 20, instead of 19. Haven't really decided yet))

(( yeah! Occasionally we will have to go in boats on the ocean of course))

Harley shook his head, rolling his eyes a little. "Lift the top, men! We'll need to breathe out there!" Harley looked back down at Adele. "Adele, you just sit there all day? You really should get to work." a smirk played across his lips. He motioned for her to get up. "Lead me to the cap'ains quarters!"

((:P so where are they right now?))

"Yessir." Adele powered down her station, leaving the controls to her crewmate before getting up and passing Harley. "Right this way, Captain." She rested her left hand on the hilt of her electrasabre as she moved from the deck towards the back of the ship. They moved down a fancier hallway ending in a door that looked ornate and delicate, but had a sense of pirate arogantcy to it. "Here you are, sir."

((rawr))

((Sorry!! I was busy yeserdayD: ))

As they walked, many of the crew winked and whistled for Adele. Harley chuckled, nodding at her. "Thank yah, m'lady." He said with a much too dramatic bow. With a sweep of his arm, he was upright again, and already walking inside. "Be careful of the men, they're not nearly as gentlemanly as me." He said, slapping her butt before walking all the way in. He winked at her with a smirk, and slammed his doors shut.

((I get it, it's okay :P))

Glaring at him for the slap, Adele turned on her heel and walked away as the door shut. She got a few more whistles and catcalls as she went back on deck, but she shut them up with an electrical hum from her weapon. She went back to her station, going over the data to make sure everything was running smoothly.

Harley stripped down just to his least complicated pair of pants. He stretched his muscles, groaning a little. He pulled off his boots, walking to the bathroom. Harley looked in the small round mirror on his wall. He splashed some water, somewhat thinking of Adele, the command center girl. He pushed back his hair with some water, walking back out to the "bedroom". His bed was covered with different star maps and planets he had charted himself.

Adele looked around as the ship glided effortlessly, thinking about the voyage. At the moment there wasn't much to do, all the data was inputed and she just had to stand by in case of anything going wrong. She pulled up some maps and looked around, looking for something interesting.

Harley shook his head pulling on his shirt again. He pulled on his vest, and the jacket, and the goggles, and all the many complicated devices He kept on him. He pulled in his boots, pushing the goggles off his face on around his neck. He didn't truly need them right now. Taking out his pocket watch, he checked the compass that was also attached to his watch. He walked out to the boat surface, checking the skies.

"The skies are clear," Adele confirmed through her mouth piece. She sent out bytes of information through the system, relaying them to all th different decks and departments. She looked deeper in space on their current trajectory, wondering where they'd end up this time.

"It's no fun that way." Harley said, seeming to appear behind her out of thin air. "It's better to relax and find out when we get there. You wouldn't understand that, would you? Command center."

Lila was sailing the high seas when she noticed another ship on the horizon,"Well this will be fun," she said as she closed her telescope and placed it at her waist. She jumped onto the railing of her ship commanding her crews attention without a word and they turned to look at her. "I see a ship in our mist and it looks likes it loaded with doies that we could surely need. READY THE CANNONS!" she called and the ship went wild with movement. SOon the cannons were aimed and ready to go. "On my count, 3...2... FIRE!"

The thick black ball went hurling through the air and hit the side of their ship head on. "That aought to get their attention." She said with a smirk.

((I'm assuming its ours..?))

"Men! Get the cannons ready, and shoot a warning! If they don't take it, free fire!" He yelled pulling out his own compass. He could just barely make out a sillohettte on the ship. Their first cannon ball was shot out, and the ship shook.

((Sure))

"Men, Lets reid us a ship," she said as their ship got closer to the on comming ship. They were taking heavy fire but nothing the ship couldn't take. Once close enought they jumped from one ship to the other and began their fight. Lila smirked and grabbed her sword and gun before jumping onto the other ship as well.

Harley pulled out his own sword, effortlessly takin down the pirates, here and there. Eventually he got lazy and started shooting them in the heads, what could he say? He had perfect aim. Harley took a moment to refill his gun, shooting a few more men. He stopped at the Captain, absently noting that she was a woman. He bowed his head, obviously confident. "Shall we dance?" All movement around the two captains had stopped.

Lila pulled out her sword and dipped him a beautiful curtsey,"We shall," she said before she swung her sword and when two metals collided the dance began. She ducked and dogded his blows with almost effortless smoothness, her steps were calculated and very though out and as she could see so were his. He movements had a almost confident appeal, the swings of his blade were heavy and long as they danced around the deck.

Harley had a feeling this battle might last awhile. They were both quite matched in skill. He considered sacrificing himself to end it now. He tried a few tricks, which ultimately failed. He also considered pulling out his gun. He began to swear in the many layers of complicated clothing he was wearing.

Lila jumped up onto the railing of his ship,"Well we are quiet evenly matched, I only came on the ship for one thing. Give me that and I will be out of your hair." she said holding up her sword. "The map to the Book of Anubis."

"That's not yours to take." He pulled out a gun, aiming at the woman. He shot at her head, probably missing. He shot at her a few more times, becoming frustrated. He shoved his sword into its sheath, pulling off his jacket and vest. He pulled out his sword, much more comfortable out of his captains jacket. He stood ready for any attackers.

Lilt dodged each shot before she jumped down,"Well that's not very nice," she said with a smirk. "You will either hand it over to me willingly or u will take it after i kill you. What will it be?" She asked as she pulled off her goggles and her jacket revealing and short brown dress with matching boots.

"I don't have it, doll. Revel in your beauty now, because it you're looking for the fountain of youth, you're not going to find it. No such thing exsists!" He said, confidently. Harley pulled out his gun again, aiming at a button on the wall. He shot, setting the button off. The top of their shop locked down, and the ship flew up, hovering away from their ships.

Lila looked over her shoulder before she nodded to her men to get out before she looked at him. "Well handsome if you believed that then why not give me the map. Something in the back of your mind tells you that it may be real." She said before she turned and ran before jumping over the edge of his boat into the waters below.

Harley shook his head, motioning for the command center to fly them off. He didn't bother put on his formal captains wear again, preferring the loose shirt. All of his necklaces and other trinkets not normally seen were practically on display. He had a few metallic ones, then a few much older superstitious ones, usually seen on regular pirates. A lot of the trinkets weren't very fashionable or seen much, so they caught attention.

((So....we're not in the sky or outer space....right?))

Adele jumped, scowling as she turned in her seat to give a snarky retort to the captain when the ship suddenly lurched, an explosion coming from up front. The alerts went on and she went to work, stabalizing the systems, her fingers flying to input data quickly before they lost speed or fuel. She locked down the center and made sure the ship was on auto before she stood, her sword our and buzzing electronically as she prepared to defend the controls to the ship.

The battle seemed to last forever and end quickly at the same time. She fought men as they came in, blasting them with electric blasts and clashing with their swords. Eventually she and her crewmates drove them off, only to stop and watch their captain fighting who appeared to be the captian of the other ship. Adele frowned, tense and ready to fight when suddenly the other crew was gone, vanished from deck. Not wasting any time she hurried back to her station to asess the damages to the ship and their course. She inputed a few commands, ignoring the few scratches and scrapes she had attained during the battle.

When the excitement had settled down a abit she glanced at the captain, her gaze raking over the trinkets on his chest, wondering what their significance was. "Orders, captain?"

Harley looked back down at Adele, eyes clouded. "Go and find a medic. Get those scratches fixed up." He nodded at them, walking to the edge of the ship. He looked over the edge, down at the other woman's ship. He thought about the fountain of youth, but then shook his head.

Lila was pulled onto her ship by her men from the sea,"Did you get it?"

"Yes ma'am, I couldn't get the map itself, it was safe guarded behind an electric case but I did get a photo," he said handing her the camera.

Lila smiled as she looked over the photo,"It will do, turn the sails we are heading south by sea. We do not need anymore distractions." Lila then looked up at the ship in the sky and smiled before she winked, knowing he was watching.

Harley marched over to the case, holding the nearly perfect replica of the map. He touched a few of his trinkets, walking to an old wooden door that had the same design as his did. He pulled off a silver necklace, pressing the charm into the door. Steam came from all the little cracks and crevices of the door, and it slowly pulled open. Harley walked in, looking at the huge library he managed to hide on his boat. He walked to the fifth row, and looked up at the seventh shelf. He reached up, pulling out a fairly normal looking white bible. It was in good condition, but obviously from an older age, when there was still churches and people had faith. Faith had been both good and bad. He shook his head, opening the book slowly. In the book, instead of where the bible's readings should be, Cleopatra's own writings were there, kept perfectly by the steam locked room. He flipped to the map, looking down at it with sad eyes. The replica was missing many a things. Harley was sure that the pirate woman was looking for the map and probably found the replica. He didn't know what she would do with the missing and blank pieces the map had.

"It it missing prices!" Chase said sharply as he hit the table.

"Be calm, my mother wasn't a rash woman but she smart. When she took map from Antony she made a replica. Many in fact, every replica was missing something from it that the real make had. However, with Rosseta Stone, we can fill in the blanks."

"Yes but how are we to get the stone?"

"I must go back home," she said softly.

The captain walked out to the deck, book open in his hands. "Adele, can you use cordinates from here?" He asked, showing her the page. He looked to her, too distracted to have any will. His eyes grazed over her, from he black hair to her fair skin. He managed to pull his gaze away, turning it back towards the book. He silently chastised himself and wondered whether she noticed or not.

Adele pursed her lips as he walked away, looking down at her injuries. She was in better condition from some of the other wounded from the fight, so she didn't bother going to the medic. Instead she cleaned up, wiping the blood from the scratch on her cheek as well as a few scrapes on her arms. Then she went back to work, glancing up only when the captain returned. She looked it over, nodding slowly. "I can input the data now, captain," she said, lookng up at him. She raised an eyebrow slightly, wondering what he had been staring at. "May I ask what they lead to?"

((So where is this all happening? Are we on Earth or in the skies, or in space somewhere?))

((You guys are in the sky hovering over the ocean.))

((Sorry, I meant to say yes but I forgot ><))

"Ah, that's what I want to see." He said, purposefully keeping his gaze down at the book. He nodded at her, flicking his light green eyes up again once. He walked away, boots loud on the ship. He continued reading as he walked, taking just a moment to look over his shoulder at her, again. He shook his head, while a few members noticed. He glared up at them every time they tried to talk to him while he was sitting in a little corner by the nets and machines. It was a good place to read.

((ah, okay))

Nodding slightly, Adele looked back to her screen as she added the coordinates to the flight path. "All systems are go," she heard over the comms. She nodded, signaling the pilot to go for it. She looked over the ships systems as they accelerated, making sure everything was going as it should.

After awhile, Harley got bored with just reading in a corner and walked back to the library. He wasn't sure whether he should go ahead and put the book away, or keep it with him for safekeeping. Walking into the library again, he made a decision to browse the books. He ran his fingers along the spines, looking for anything to catch his eyes.

Adele worked hard, aking sure eveything was working right. When her a replacement finally came to her station she sighed, tired from the excitement of the day. She went tinto the galley for a snack, sitting down at one of the windows to look at the sky outside.

Deciding to put the book back, he changed it's position with a different book, taking the new book with him on deck. He walked out of the library, sealing it shut with his trinket. He walked and read at the same time, eventually closing the book and placing it in the pocket of his shirt. He walked back to his room, placing on a much less fashionable version of captain's jacket. He liked the feel of the looser, much less constricting jacket. Harley stopped at the command center to check on their course. He nodded at Adele's replacement, walking over to the nets. He climbed them, all the way up to the nest, which was currently unoccupied.

Adele relaxed in her seat, smilng a little at the view outside. She loved traveling like this, seeing the stars and flying through the skies. She sighed, closing her eyes as she layed her cheek on the glass.
