Aboard the Blue Ocean... - Yaoquizque - 05-28-2011
Concordia had to hurry...
It was Thursday evening already. She spent all the day sleeping and when she waked up, she had the feeling she was forgetting something.
She remembered it as she was warming up some freeze-dried food. She told Carrie she would try to find her father.
And.... She received a call from her, giving her some infos to help her...
But then she moved to her bed and just slept all day long...
She finished to warm up the food and started to eat voraciously. She didn't eat today!
She then checked again the files Carrie sent her and rolled her eyes, smiling. How could that Andrew be so cute anyway!?
The girl moved to the cockpit and checked her whereabouts... She was in Corcovado... Far from the dawrf sun.. Seems the unicorn derivated a lot!
She powered on the engines and headed to Curacao...
What would happen? She will find out!
+++++++++++++++++++++
It was a busy evening on TP-23:Poseidon traffic control center.
Well... Tyler had seen worse.. A dozen of ships were caught by the sensors of TP-23, and only a couple of them requested to land.
He liked his job. It was a safe one, and the place was beautiful. His wife and his daughter were living in LA... He couldn't see them as often as he would like to but hey! He was earning his living and the company offered him and his family fantastic holidays...
TP-23:Poseidon was one of those numerous tourism platforms built by Orbital Spa and Cruise. A lot of rich libertonians were spending time there. It was funny sometimes to observe that fauna...
His mind was wandering a bit too much. He was thinking about the last communication he received from his wife... Seems the little Emma had troubles in school... He would have to talk more to Mary about this...
The overseer McFinn tapped on his shoulder "Incoming unknown signal"
"I got it, sir" Tyler focused back to his console.
He raised an eyebrow when the pilot sent his callsign. It was vaguely disturbing. Perplexed, he contacted the ship.
"Devil Unicorn, this is TP-23 traffic control. Decline your identity."
An appealing voice answered "Hey there, love... Hmm... Who am i? A nice girl?"
"Ahem... Decline your identity and affiliation please, Devil Unicorn."
"Hmmm...?" There was a short blank "Zoner? Annnd... My name is Concordia?"
He then received from the ship the indentity metadata and nodded. Everything appeared to be in order...
"Granted to land. Slot five..."
+++++++++++++++++++++
A tired sabre landed on TP-23. Some guards appeared and took position around the ship.
They waited there a few minutes but the airlock of the hold remained closed...
The chief nodded and they approached the airlock, preparing to circumvent the lock security.
That sabre was almost a wreck and it was easy for them to open the door of the hold.
Suspicious, they drew their guns.
"The place is rather peaceful... But you never know what can happen.... So many scum in this universe..." whispered the chief. His men nodded and stepped in the hold.
It was such a bloody mess inside! Joe, the veteran of the security team paid by OSC never saw such a thing during his long career.
Seeing this, they vaguely expected to encounter a wild predator... Maybe an imported tiger who escaped from his cage...
They started to search in the hold.
Damian, the youngest guard, used the extremity of his gun to lift an underwear lying on the small bed "What the..."
"You like them?" A girl sticked out her head out of a small shower cabin.
"Erm..."
"What are you doing here anyway? I was taking a shower..."
Joe gave a sidelook at the cabin partition. The girl's body almost could be guessed...
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - SeaFalcon - 05-30-2011
While Joe looked at the shower cabin he made a short smirk,
"Over here chief"
"You found something?" The chief said,
He quickly walked to Joe, still with his gun drawn.
Joe already had his gun lowered and pointed to the shower with his finger.
The girl tilted her head a bit due to wondering who these men in her ship might be.
The chief looked at the shower...
"Ow.. erm.. ma'am?"
"Yes?" she said with a little smile on face.
"Are you, the pilot of this ship?"
"Do you see anyone else, who could be the pilot?"
She made a short wink and swiftly grabbed a towel just outside the shower.
She disappear back in the shower. "One moment."
Joe and the Chief looked at each out, both a bit amazed.
Damian was standing in the background also overruled of the situation.
"Sorry for barging in like this ma'am!" The chief said on a bit of a loud tone.
The girl leaped back out with of the shower cabin.
Wearing a thin brown clothing."So who are you, guys?"
The chief cleared his throat...
"We are from the security here, ma'am."
"We were here to inspect your ship, for safety reasons"
The chief looked around the messy ship while saying so.
"Security you say?" She smiled
"Does that mean you also need to search me?"
...

Damian gulped when he heard the girl question. He was standing behind the chief, attempting to not look at the curves of that weird pilot.
Damian was Eighteen and he was in love already. He sighed, remembering the only problem was the girl he liked didn't know about it...
Not easy for a guard rookie basically paid peanuts to approach the priceless jewel he admired.
This morning, he decided to take his courage in both hands and talk to her after his shift.
But he was now in the small quarters of that weird ship... Facing a girl showing little if no inhibition at all...
And he couldn't look at her.
Blushing a bit and trying to keep his composure, he was thinking he would never succeed to talk to the girl he liked if he didn't have the gusts to simply stand in front of an almost naked girl.
Almost naked...
He was lost in his thought and only vaguely heard the chief asking the girl who she was and if she had anything illegal or dangerous on board...
He could hear her giggle and shout "Hey! Stop searching in my underwears drawer!"
Damian gave a sidelook at Joe, who seemed to have some fun.
The chief slapped one Joe's head "Enough" He then faced the girl and said "Well... Everything seems to be in order... sorry for the interruption, ma'am"
Damian suddenly noticed the girl was staring at him, a smile on her face "Your boy seems to be a bit... uhhh... upset?" She laughed and Damian looked away.
The chief looked at him and shrugged "It's just the lunch he had. He has a fragile stomach"
"Right..." she said, winking at him.
The men of the team started to leave the hold of the sabre. As the chief was following his men, the girl grabbed his hand "Hey... Honey... I just arrived and i would need some direction"
He turned around and looked at her, expecting god-knows-why something silly
"Hmm... Yes?"
The girl moved to her bed and grabbed a diary "I search..." She said while leafing through the book "Ah yes! The blue ocean... Should be a ship or something?"
"Erm...." He checked his datapad during a few seconds "Of course... It's the big liner moored out there" He pointed at a direction with his hand "You cannot miss it.... However... Never been there. They have their own security personnel and they made it clear we are not welcome"
He raised an eyebrow and looked at her "Why do you want to know anyway..."
She smiled mischievously "I would like to pay them a little visit..."
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - SeaFalcon - 05-31-2011
...
"Pay them a visit? So you're here for a holiday cruise?" he wondered a bit
She smiled again "Perhaps... more like looking for someone"
"but I guess I'll have to be going then, thanks for pointing the way"
"So you are invited there then?"
She raised her eyebrow "Do I have to be invited?"
"Well, I've heard you need an invitation to get on that ship, their security seems to be rather strict" The chief said on a bit bit of a serious tone.
I mean the time Damian and Joe were still waiting outside for the chief.
"Are you coming yet?" Joe yelled.
The chief turned his head around and mumbled a bit back. "Yes, Yes, comming"
"Erm.. I need an invitation to get on board? Any idea where I could get one?" She smiled and made a short wink at him.
"I don't really know a a lot about it. but that liner seems to be a bit different from the others, high security, invitations only. I guess you could check out the bar here on the Poseidon, there are quite some people there who are going on the next trip with it. Maybe ask around a bit there if you need to know more about it."
"Everything alright in there chief?" Joe yelled again.
The chief made a little wave motion with his had outside meaning to just wait a little longer,
"I have to be going, you just have a good time here and enjoy the facilities here"
The girl smiled "Sure I'll do that and thanks for the tips and all that"
"No problem ma'am" He said while walking out.
Damian looked at the chief walking out and saw the girl behind him popping up and giving Damian a short wink.
He quickly tried to look away. 'What is this' he thought to himself.
"Let's go guys, she seems to be quite in order"
The security team headed out. A new vessel was getting ready to land and needed a check.
While they walked away Damian, perhaps by accident looked back and the girl blowing a kiss at him.
He blushed and quickly looked in front of him and blushing.
Connie disappeared back in her ship getting herself ready to find out a bit more about this liner.
"I guess the bar would be a good start to hear a few people out."

She took some time to choose what she wanted to wear... However, she first needed to find the various clothes she had in mind in the mess of her quarters.
While humming, she started to search, not appearing to find anything strange with the untidiness of her quarters...
After a while she came out of the sabre and raised her head, giving a somewhat anxious look at the sky.
"Uhhhh..." She walked quickly to the closest building and ran into a man coming out.
"Damnit! Watch where you're going!" he grunted.
"Whooops! Sorry!" She hid behind him and pressed against him, her arms around his waist.
"What the hell" He tried to turn around to face her but she kept hugging him, following his move.
"Uhhh...Help me..." She said, putting her head on his shoulder.
"What are you doing, leave me alone!"
She stepped back and looked at him as he was finally facing her.
He glanced at her, staring at the pink skirt and the weird top she was wearing "What's you're problem, miss?!"
The girl then heard a feminine voice coming from behind her "Will you let my husband, darling?"
She took a look above her shoulder and saw a mid aged lady with a beautiful dress. She looked a bit pissed.
"Uhoh..." She moved at the lady and hugged her "I feel a bit... worried?"
The woman pushed back the girl "And that's a good reason to try to seduce my husband?"
"Try to... What?"
"Doesn't matter. Leave us alone."
The lady grabbed her husband's hand and started to pull him out.
"Wait darling... I think that miss needs some help"
"Sure! Everything wearing a skirt does..." She pulled him harder and he finally gave up.
He said "Sorry miss... Maybe you could ask to the tourism office to help you!"
Concordia quickly entered in the building and took a deep breath. She then looked around and spotted that office thing the man alluded to.
She moved there and smiled softly at the woman working there "Hey love. Is there a nice bar here?"
The woman glanced quickly at her "Hello miss. welcome to Poseidon. Indeed! There is actually three bars on that station"
"Okay... And where they are...?"
The waitress directed her to the closest one. A bar with a nice atmosphere and nice drinks too, presumably.
She however had hard times to explain to the girl the direction, since she didn't seem to be able to get her bearings.
After several unsuccesful attempts, the waitress rolled her yes and took a better look at the girl.
"Wait... Did you get lost? And you are looking for your parents?"
"Uhoh? No.. I came here alone"
"Hmm" The waitress looked mildly convinced. "Do you have an identicard or anything, miss?"
"Rmmm" She thought for a while and then nodded, smiling. She searched in her small bag and handed her an old security pass.
The waitress took a look at it, confused.
She could read
Code:

Roots : KSC. Mnemosym - [+???]
Marital status : Single
Occupation : Baffin traffic control operator
Clearance level : Fnordnet/Temple/Internal Sanctum
Baffin bureaucracy bureau of ThudThe waitress sighed and called the security. After a short while, The chief and Damian showed up.
"What's the matter, Maritta? I was in the middle of some...." Concordia waved at the two guards "Oh you again..."
The waitress said "I have this lady here who doesn't seem to have any identitycard"
The chief glanced at Concordia "That's pretty much normal, Maritta. She isn't a Liberty citizen... Or a Bretonian subject either..." He leant forward and whispered to her "Zoner..."
She nodded. "She was looking for a bar..."
Meanwhile, Concordia came closer to Damian and put her head on his shoulder "Uhhhh... You smell nice..." She smiled and licked quickly his neck
"S..Stop it"
The chief turned around and noticed what she was doing. He rolled his eyes "Okay.... Enough miss. I will show you where i use to drink after my shifts..."
He started to walk and she quickly followed him.
After some walk they arrived on a crowded bar. the chief waved and got out, mumbling he had others things to take care of.
Concordia looked around and noticed some men with quite sinister face having some drinks on a isolated table.
She smiled, walked to them and sat on their table, her legs waving in the air.
"Hey sweethearts..." She waved "You mind if i join you? I'm thirsty!"
A man was talking softly and he stopped right away. He stared at her. "We were having a discussion. Men's talk you see? Sod off"
She smiled "Ohhh? You mean you were trying to figure which one of you pleased the more of ladies?"
"No..." He said with a stern face.
She giggled "Oh i see.... You prefer boys, that is? Okay! How many boys you slept with?!"
She grabbed the bottle of scotch that was on the table and took a generous sip from it.
The man remained silent and his muscles tensed. People over the table, knowing him, knew that idiotic girl would regret soon those words.
As he was about to move, a man bursted out laughing. He was wearing a fedora hiding a fair part of his face.
Concordia looked at him and saw only his grin, until he raised his head and looked at her.
"I like that girl. She's adventurous... And..." He bursted out laughing again "She put you in your place, simon"
Simon mumbled and took a sip while staring at the girl.
'Fedora hat' man gestured her to join them "But please, be my guest." He looked at her and smiled "What is your name miss, then?"
She sat near him and sticked out her tongue "You first!"

Surprisingly, it wasnt all that bad conversation, though one could expect such from Concoria.
But soon...
"Ahh! Comming trough!" folowed by a thud as the owner of voice couldnt keep balance.
Concordia noticed the kusarian accent, and quicky after the person lying nearby. Aparently, some boxes of cookies were lying nearby as well.
"Dont worry! I've got it covered."
Looking around, Shiro noticed the mixed expresion of the pair of men. Though noticeably, she failed to notice Concordia.
"Uhm..." Quickly picking up cookie boxes she tried to dissapear secretly. As expected, failing at that as well...
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - Yaoquizque - 06-05-2011
"You may call me John" said 'Fedora', glancing at her with a smile.
She tried to take the glass of one of the men, but the owner of said glass tapped on her hand, saying "How badly brought up you are, girl"
Concordia smiled, staring at him "You think, sweetheart?" She grabbed the bottle and took another sip.
Smiling mischievously, she looked again at him "And...If you are so concerned about good manners, would you please take your hand off my leg"
The man played with his glass using his second hand and bottomed it up . "Why would i do that..." He grinned at his mates around the table "My hand is just fine there. Those legs are so firm and.." He chuckled and moved his hand closer to the beginning of her skirt "I have the weird feeling you like it"
She made her shy face and glanced at 'Fedora' "Uhhh... Johnny honey... Help me?"
He remained silent during a few seconds and finally spoke in a calm voice "Larry Larry Larry... When will you learn how to treat ladies correctly? I should probably teach you the hard way?" He raised his head and looked at him, an ironic smile on his lips.
Larry chuckled "Maybe you should. Your mother never complained about my manners anyway" Despite his bravado, he took off his hand.
'Fedora' raised his head and stared at him severely for a while. One of the men around the table coughed. The others contemplated the bottom of their glass.
"Uhoh..." Said Concordia, looking at each one of them a bit confused.
'Fedora' suddenly bursted out laughing "That Larry... He's quite comic, don't you think, miss?"
"Uh... I guess?"
He looked at her "You never told me your name anyway, young lady"
She sticked out her tongue "Never said i would!"
'Fedora' made a somewhat amused face "Hmmm. And what are you doing on Poseidon?"
"Well i'm looking for a boy" She nodded.
Larry chuckled "Oh there is plenty of them here... And not so far from you"
She tickled him "I meant... A cute one... Unlike you!" She laughed.
Larry was about to reply but he noticed 'John' was discreetly gesturing him to 'shut the fruit up'.
He mumbled and refilled his glass.
'Fedora' smiled softly at the girl "What a fascinating topic. Maybe we cou..." He stopped as Concordia jumped on her feet and ran after a young girl that passed by a few seconds before.
She hugged the white haired girl "Hey! Shiro... That's you right, love?"
Shiro turned around and looked at her "You are the baaaad~ girl"
Concordia remembered the first time she met the girl... It was around Java... In Tau 23, was it?
Shiro was afraid her and a boy she was with would eat her. She hid behind asteroid.
She giggled. That was such a funny evening! She smiled mischievously at Shiro as she was looking at her with her puppy eyes.
Concordia licked her neck, making the girl panic a bit "Rmmm" She laughed
"You taste so nice..." She tickled her "Almost make me willing to eat you!"
Shiro shook her head, her face turning white. She dropped the box of cookies and attempted to escape from Concordia's hug "Don't eat me~~~"
She laughed and tapped softly on Shiro's head "You silly! I'm just kidding!"
Shiro looked again at her with her puppy eyes "Not?"
The girl kissed her on her cheek. "Hey... Come anyway... I was with some boys"
Shiro turned around, attempting to catch the box of cookies but Concordia started to drag her, pulling the girl from her belt.
Shiro crawled in the air using her arms, looking at the box while being dragged "My cookies~~~"
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - SeaFalcon - 06-05-2011
...
Once arrived at the table the girl placed Shiro right next to hear and turning her around towards the table by grabbing her shoulders.
"look, more important things then cookies!" She smiled
"uh....He-" Before John could even say hello the blond haired girl already turned around again, in search of the cookie box.
The girl went back after Shiro "No, no... leave the cookies and focus your interest on these more important 'objects'"
She smiled a bit teasingly to the boys at the table who seemed to have turned a little speechless
Once again Concordia dragged her back to the table. "But.. But..." Shiro still having her eyes focused on the box.
Finely Shiro was set back at the table "Here, now stay"
Shiro looked at the guys sitting around the table and then she looked back at Concordia "But..?"
Concordia smiled and then made a little introduction gesture with both here arms to Shiro "here, try saying hello again"
John looked around the table then to both girls "Quite an interesting couple huh?"
She smiled and giggled a little right after. "You think? Hey Shiro say 'hello' to these cute'ies"
Shiro glanced at Concordia in a way of 'are you sure?' then she looked back at the guys. "Hellu"
John gestured the Larry guy to move aside a little to give the girl a place to sit. "Well, welcome, got sit right over there"
Concordia tickled Shiro in the direction of the open space made on the bench. "Sto- Stop! I'm going!"
Concordia smiled and hopped on the side of the table again while smiling to the guys around the table.
"So you were looking for a boy, a cute one?" John repeated without any interruption this time.
"yep..." she still had her smile and was wiggling her legs a bit around on the side of the table.
...
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - jakub963 - 06-05-2011
...What am i doing here...
...Who are this people...
...Why things like this always happen to me...
Some from many Shiro's thoughts that was going trough her head.
It was true that she, more or less, atracted weird situations. One could blame her personality.
...I give up...
"Who are this people, miss? And why i have to be here..?"
"They are men, Shiro. I am sure youve heard of them."
Shiro gave Concordia a glare, only causing her to chuckle a bit.
... That is not what i mean...
"Hey, easy there Missy, we wont bite. At least, not right now"
Shiro then turned at Concordia and launched a long stream of something that sounded like complains. Though it was hardly understandable because she was speaking too fast and in kusarian.
Aboard the Blue Ocean... - Yaoquizque - 06-05-2011
She smiled at her "Uhoh.... Not sure of what you just said... But i bet it was a compliment!"
"Hmm..." Said one of the men before taking a sip of whisky.
John studied Shiro during a few seconds "So... She's your friend? She looks a bit... Nevermind"
He looked at Concordia "So... You said you were looking for someone?"
"Yay!"
She filled a glass and handed it to Shiro. "Want some... Hmm..." She smiled mischievously "Water?"
Shiro looked at the glass and shook her head "No!"
Concordia laughed "Come on! It's not vodka i swear!"
'Fedora hat' raised an eyebrow due to the behavior of the two girls "That's... Refreshing i guess"
Larry elbowed one of the men and chuckled "They would fit just well in our brothel, boss"
Shiro opened her eyes wide and Concordia bursted out laughing.
John gave an insistent look at Larry, who shut up and returned to the contemplation of his glass...
John then smiled softly at the girls. "Excuse my companion here, dear ladies" He gave a cold look at Larry "He has a big mouth... But he is a fine man... At times"
Concordia beamed "He's funny"
"So... You are looking for someone, young lady? Maybe i know him"
She took her datapad and started to search on it "Uhhh... Yeah" She smiled "His name is Andrew... Dababy?"
'Fedora' gave her a quick look and smiled "What a strange name... And why are you looking for him?"
She smiled mischievously "Because he is cute? Oh and to help a friend too?"
He chuckled softly "How noble you are miss"
Taking a small sip of whisky, he grinned "And you started your search on the bar? What a smart move"
She giggled and sticked out her tongue "Ah well... Actually i thought i could find someone working on that big liner... you know?" She tought for a bit "Blue Lagoon? No... Blue something.." She took a generous sip of whisky and smiled.
He looked a her for a while and smiled "What a coincidence, young lady... If you are talking of the big liner moored on that station... Those fine men and i are... Working... On it"
"Really? Woa... Lucky!" She beamed.
He stood up and the other men mimicked him. "If you want dear lady, i can invite you there"
"You would? Thanks!"
"Of course... Your... Friend is invited"
She got on her feet and pulled her arm around 'Fedora' "Shall we go then?"
"Of course... Of course..." He gestured one of the men to pay the drinks and moved out of the bar.
Concordia didn't notice the sidelook he gave at the others men while leaving, which could easily mean something quite unpleasant would happen to her very soon...
