User blog:Angren Túrë/FORUM EP2 Brief synopsis

Again, sorry for the delay. Things happen.

Anyway, this is how it would run down.

New characters:


 * Parrot (ImposterParrotGrass)


 * Ryan (Da13337Wolf)

We pick up where we left off: White Fang riflemen, presumably employed by Maki, have surrounded the bridge crew of the Thoronath. Maki herself is giving an arrogant victory monologue, full of idealogical rhetoric (I haven't figured out what she's a political prisoner for, but I'm leaning towards dissent or treason). Fire and Wow are both currently out of the picture, since they're on perimeter patrol. The bridge crew are discussing their options (as quietly as they can): Leaf thinks they might be able to talk their way out, Angren and Wolf are all for a distraction, and Luna and WC are planning on a direct attack.

Meanwhile, Ryan (an explorer in disguise as a White Fang rifleman) is conversing (read: arguing) with what appears to be a bundle of grass in his belt: parrot. Ryan sees opportunity in befriending this group of survivors, whereas Parrot reminds him repeatedly of the difficult and impractical odds.

On the bridge, TOMM reboots himself and does a quick area scan to see what he missed (grumbling the whole time). He sees Luna, which reminds him unfavorably of her less-than-conventional shutdown method. In order to get back, he activates a fail-safe in the engines, causing them to destabilize.

Outside, the rear section of Thoronath explodes, giving Wolf just enough time to slam a fist into the ground and make a shockwave out of pure Aura. The shockwave knocks Maki and all the White Fang members to the ground. Furious, Maki orders the White Fang to attack, but Ryan shoots her with a knockout round mid-sentence. Quick pan of the Thoronath bridge crew collecting and readying their weapons. The White Fang members take a look at Maki, then decide to cut their losses and bail.

A few minutes later, Luna confronts TOMM. Hilarious argument to the fade-out.
