= Excalibur Bar, SB UNITY =
Jade was the first one to arrive at the bar after receiving a message
about some get together at this bar entering she looked around the
first person she spotted was Ian (NPC), "hey Ian glad to see you."
Jade said smiling as she walked up to him.
"Good to see you to ma'am." Ian said picking up a corona and handing
it to her, "I remember that you like these." Ian said smiling glad to
see his boss again.
"Thanks." Jade took the drink and took a sip, "so do you've any ideas
who sent the invitation?" Jade asked. But before Ian could answer some
more people walked into the bar.
"Hey Hey Folks! There's some serious over supply of alcohol in this
place. I think you guys need to do something about this. Think your
up to the task eh Chimera Wing?" Anya announced loudly upon walking
into the bar before turning around to address that to her 25 flight
crew and numerous personnel ostensibly under her command.
They answered with a resounding "AAAARRRRRUUUU!!!" to which Anya
responded with a grin. She had been teaching them bad habits and good
practice together. "Chimera Wing here is your mission!" Anya leveled
a pointed finger on an outstretched arm towards the bar. "Go forth
and get pissed!"
"AAAARRRRRUUUU!!!" Came the resounding response again.
"Well the pilots are here." Jade said grinning seeing S'hae walk in
(NPC), "welcome Gunny just in time." Jade said handing her a beer.
"I'll see you guys later gotta go and say hey to the Wing CO." Jade
said turning and heading over to where Anya was. "Anya!" Jade said
loudly hoping to get her attention.
Anya heard her name being called by a familiar voice and looked to see
who it was. "Jade! It's good to see you. I had heard you had been
released from internment in Unity sickbay but usually that means your
locked in quarters."
"Typical undisciplined rocket jockeys", Lieutenant Castillo said under
his breath from across the room, he found such barbaric displays
appalling especially considering it seemed to be condoned and even
encouraged by their superior officer. Stepping to the far side of the
bar the maid approached, 'Cranberry Juice', he said cutting her off
mid sentence. As she turned to fetch his drink he cocked his head to
the side once more to look at the rest of the crowd and had his
attention once again directed towards the pilots as one of them
knocked over a bottle. He sighed and shook his head.
"One Cranberry Juice", the bartender said from behind as she placed
the glass on the bar.
"Thank you miss", Castillo responded as he picked up the cup and took
a sip, deciding as he swallowed that he would now actually stay for
the entire party just so he could have the pleasure of tossing some of
the flyboys in the brig once they started acting up, which in his mind
they most certainly would start doing soon.
There was a commotion near the door and the room seemed to turn and
stare. The room dissolved into a tense silence as a rather peeved
looking Captain Rojac strode into the bar with a noticeable grimace
beneath his bearded face.
"What is going around here?" He said as he strode into the bar, his
hands clinched into fists at his side.
No one answered.
Rojac walked up to one of Anya's pilots, with an empty tumbler in his
hand. He dusted off the young man's shoulder and seemed to sigh in
disappointment. "There is simply not enough booze." He signaled to the
tender, "Rounds all around. Put it on the Chimera's tab."
Anya pushed through the crowd towards the Captain ignoring the roar of
approval. She pushed a cold bottle of beer into his hand whilst she
contented herself with a whisky sour. "We need to talk before I
leave. Depending on how well things do or don't work out there is the
possibility I may not be coming back."
