something suddenly strikes tim, a fist hitting him sideways. the unknown attacker is clearly upset, but is not silver. again another strike his him, a noticable green and sea blue eye looking at him. then holding him to the wall, the person stares into tim for a few moments, then drops him and walks to silver. just in the flash of the lights, silver is gone but the unknown person is there, staring at him
Exspes stood silently there while the girl approached Timothy and talked to him. He remained silent, listened to their conversation and tried to figure out what was going on. "Brother and Sister?", he thought, "familiy issues? Great..."
Suddenly someone appeared, hitting Timothy. The girl disspeared. He grabbed a small device in his pocket, pressed a button and a few moments later some Rogues where all over the bridge, pointing guns at each and everyone but Exspes. "Someone...want to... give me some answers?", he slowly spoke...
"Indeed. You're right. Not my business. But I'm still curious, and as you may can imagine, my curiousity is reasonable. This entire scenario here is pretty abstract.", he didn't move a bit, just stood there, talking to Timothy and smoking his cigar, almost ignoring the unknown what-ever that was still there with them. "Is this some kind of family story or what? Who are those people? Who was that girl?"
He moved around, staring at everyone and everything in the room. He questioned himself if it was a good idea to get here. Something was strange. He had the feeling that everything could get out of control very fast. "Tell me what happened here. Or more precisy, where have you been? And what happened there?", he blew some smoke into the room that was scantily illuminated by the strange lights, making the scenery even creepier.
"I'm used you to be in trouble. You know that. You tried often enough to kill me. And I tried often enough tried to kill you.", he chuckled. "How can someone not be curious here? Look around, this is far beyond normal."
He sits down on one of the many chairs on the bridge, leaning back. "I'm not sure if I want to actually see it. Why don't you give me some background, an introduction to this here?"
His mien went serious and he pointed towards Timothy and that unknown person. "And who the hell is this? A part of that curse? You said something about the third curse. How many are there? And please...", he looked at Timothy with a expectant facial expression, "don't answer me in riddles again."
For a while Timothy standing silent. Then he starting to talk with calmed voice, "I am not supposed to share with this." He slowly turn to the exit, "Enough for you to know that if you stay here you will face something... unpleasant."Starting to move to exit slowly, "But if you still curious what you might face then just sit here and wait..."
the unknow person remained where she was, not even looking at anyone. the two weapons with her are the katanas in her hands and a straped to her back is a Thermal-scope L118A. a few other hand held weapons cross her body, the armour looking to be military class but not rememberable by all seven houses look.
she walks from her place, withdrawing the swords and pulling out the rifle, loads it and then keeps it in her arms, looking from troop to troop of the rogues, then stops upon seeing Exspes, almost giving him a dead cold stare, then walks back to her place, and watchs everything else unfold
The second when Timothy started to move across the bridge, ion cloud outside of Colossus started to smooth with incredible speed. Lightnings that were flashing around ship started to hit directly in the hull. Timothy felt terrible pain in his head. He grab his head and fall on his feat. Field continue to smooth, ion activity running low and when field completely disappeared bright flash of light illuminated the bridge. When light disappear Timothy was still standing on his feat with closed eyes and upset smile on his face. Flames of blue light were surrounding him.
"I expected anything but that." he said calmly and stand up. Every his word echoed by strange whisper. For a while he was keeping his eyes closed. Then he slowly opened them. His eyes were flashing with red light.
"That is quite interesting way to control a person." He moved to the exit. One rogue trooper tried to stop him but in the moment he tried to push him back, Tim pierced him with his katana. After that he slowly hide sword back and continue moving...
Focused on the things happening around him, Exspes just stood there. This was far beyond anything else he has seen before. He was ready to donate everyone in the room a bullet to their head, if it would be necessary. He wasn't so curious anymore, since he at least understood now, that he probably never will understand what happened to this ship, it's crew and it's captain.
Obviously some kind of strange power influenced the incidents on that dead vessel and that power was most certainly outclassing Exspes.
He watched Timothy killing one of his man, which did not really bother him, and how he walked away from the bridge. He focused his look on the heavily armed person, waiting for her to follow Timothy or do something else, so he could at least find out how this, whatever it is, ends.
