Re: [JMC_Blue_Dwarf] ACTION:- haarrr me hearties

Who: Jo, pilots both pirate and Blue Dwarf
Where: the Dogfight
When: the Dogfight
Jo stumbled into the wall of the corridor as another volley of missiles
ploughed into the dwarf. Wrapping her arm around a thin pipe in the
bulkhead to keep herself steady, she tensed for the next strike. Aside
from a few slight jolts, the shaking subsided temporarily. A few
Wibbles scuttled past, gurgling in fright.
Jo relaxed just as another shockwave hit, knocking her off her feet and
wrenching her arm as it was caught in the nest of pipes she had clung
to earlier.
“Ow! For Smeg’s sake.” Disentangling herself, she braced herself
against the wall and inspected her wrist, clenching it experimentally.
Pushing off, she lurched down the hall again in a staggering sprint
over the shuddering deck plates towards the shuttle bay. The shaking
was growing considerably more pronounced, as Blue Dwarf took a beating
from the pirates.
Skidding into the shuttle bay, Jo looked around in annoyance at the
empty berths where many Starbugs should have been.
“Drats, they’re all out fighting already. But I’ll be damned if I’m
going to miss this.” She jogged towards the darkened end of the giant
hangar searching for anything space worthy she could pilot. Down this
far the lights were flickering erratically overhead, making the objects
around her sway and lurch unevenly in the shadows. With a start, she
noticed a familiar silhouette sitting a few metres from her.
“Why hello there. Long time no see, sweetheart. Didja miss me?” Jo
grinned.
A few minutes later, the Phoenix rocketed out of the Blue Dwarf towards
the ongoing Pirate battle.
<OCC: she's baa-aack, after an extended period in hiding.>
Cheers,
Steph
