[MA5] - 3:10 to Noventa

[Ender]

One of the hijackers fell to the fire from Kai's blasts, and the suppressing fire from Cal managed to keep another 'farmer' downed. Though with the shot caused a small flame up from the venting smoke, making Kai cough and hack a bit (1 strain from the 1 threat).

Blue Hair and Minion group 2 is at Medium range from Kai, Kor, Cefey, and Cal. Soren is at Long.

PC UP

[Soren Lom]

Soren winced at the pain while he opened fire on the group, striking one of them hard. He then pulled out a stim to ready to give himself a boost.

[Ender]

Soren's blast finds it's mark, sending one of the farmers into another, as they slammed back into a panel, electricity coursing through their bodies as they slumped to the ground. His sharp eyes are able to pick out... CREWMEMBERS. Still alive, in binders, and on their knees in the cockpit as the firefight continued.

The lone remaining 'farmer' turned to look at his commander, and she looked at him. She reached behind her, hitting the controls. "You have a choice! Go after us, or save the town and this crew!" She called back in a howl of shrill delight. She turned to face the transparisteel wind screen, and fired her blaster, before issuing a command for the trooper to tall back. She laughed, and leapt out, both the farmer and her kicking on rocket boots to escape...

(Destiny point spent from 12 parsecs to have the gun blast out the window of the craft).

Looking ahead, she was not bluffing. A collection of farms and craft, with the out of control hauler careening towards it. The remaining crew as hostages.

What will you do? Save the crew and the homestead? Or go after the escaping Imperials...

[Cal Arcton]

"Damn, damn." Cal hissed. He rushed forward, holstering his gun even as he moved. With a flourish, of course, because it was always worth doing that, even in the face of imminent doom.

Glancing back and forth, he surveyed the scene. "Any of you know how to stop this thing? I'll shoot your binders off first." Although he hoped maybe someone could check and see if any of the fallen had a key...

[Cefey Raneth]

Seeing no time to lose, Fey had no plans of going after a Death Trooper and instead went straight to the control panels. There had to be a way to stop the thing unless those bastards had fried all the systems.

"Come on, come on..."

Computers or Mechanics? I also have Dataspike if it's Computers (adds 2 Boosts to Computer checks to slice computers), if that counts.

Computers will work. Hard Difficulty to force the computer to vent all the fuel and bring the hauler to a swift... unexpected stop.

[Cefey Raneth]

"Brace yourselves!" The twi'lek was quickly overriding commands on the computer to stop this crazy ride from ending in the most unpleasant way. She at least had no plans of dying in this place, like this.

D5 MA Computers to STAHP THE TRAIN!: 1eP+3eA+3eD 2 successes


If possible, wanna spend a Destiny to make it so that the stop is less... painful? Space-airbags to cushion us?

[Ender]

As the hauler vented fuel, the engine room shuddered, before a loud bang was heard as something ruptured in the engine room.

Power was lost throughout the vessel, as it slammed into the ground, and the crew and everyone was shunted off their feet, sure to break something...

Until Destiny stepped in. The crash safety foam deployed quickly, filling the cabin and back hall with the stuff, cushioning everyone as the ship crashed to a stop.

[Cal Arcton]

Cal was carefully gripping one of the prisoner's arms as he aimed his blaster. "Now, hold very still. Don't make any sudden move..."

Suddenly, everything moved. And then, everything was foam.

Cal blinked, carefully easing his finger off the trigger. Everything was... squishy. And a bit hard. And very, very foamy.

"Ummm..." He cleared his throat. "Is everyone okay? Or did I die, and the afterlife is a lot stranger than I figured on it bein'?" He drawled casually.

[Kai Wryssald]

Oh joy, crash survival training was here again. They seemed to like to torture them with this from time to time. Of course they were this former commanders and not the Twi'lek he would have to tickle into submission later.


There was a muffled grumbling coming from his left, surely one of the others, but Kai busied himself with getting out of the mess. It wasnt fun to be in for long.

[Cefey Raneth]

Fey prepared herself for an unpleasant landing as she tried to hold onto something, which didn't really work, and a squeaky yelp left her mouth as she hurtled... into a sea of foam.

As everything was now standing still, she started to flail to get out of the thick foam, head and lekku first as she hacked and spit out all the foam that had ended up in her mouth. "Ugh, gross!" Following was some more flailing of her arms as she tried to get out. "... Uh... help?"

[Korvalus Dunbri]

Kor spit some of the foam from his mouth as he stood frowning. The hijackers had gotten away before they could capture one, unfortunate, he had been looking forward to an interrogation. "I hope your drink at the caff house tasted better than this stuff" Kor grumbled to Cal.

He saw the twilek struggling and reached over, gently but firmly grabbing her wrists he righted her so she wasn't flailing in the foam "quick thinking, you ok?" He said looking down at the small woman.

[Cefey Raneth]

"Thank you," she was able to grab onto him to help with the effort of getting out of the foam. Being a performer and not a fighter, she had a different set of muscles than Kor and Kai. "Yeah, I'm fine."

Fey bit her lower lip, though not so much in an alluring way this time as it seemed to be more annoyance behind the gesture now. "... Shame about them getting away..."

[Ender]

A groan, muffled by foam, came from the back of the hall...

[Kai Wryssald]

"Don't the bad guys always get away?" Kai asked, extracting himself from the mess and moving to join the others.

"You okay, Honey?" He asked looking the Twi'lek over a moment. The groan wasn't missed and he glanced in the direction a moment later.

A survivor maybe?

[Cal Arcton]

Cal did his best to brush as much foam off of himself as possible. He chuckled at Kor's comment. "Maybe we know where they get it, now."

He turned to Fey. "H... uh, miss Fey, why don't you see if you can reach someone in the militia on the comms. Give'em last known position and heading. Maybe someone can track'em."

He waved a foamy arm to everyone else. "Let's see if we can find a key, get these poor folk freed. And see if any of these slimeballs are still breathin'. Wouldn't mind asking someone a few questions about all of this." Hearing the groan, he moved towards it, hands brushing through the foam to find the source.

[Korvalus Dunbri]

"This time that is unfortunately true." Kor said replying to Kai's statement as he moved to investigate the sound, he held his axe poised to struck should he need it.

[Cefey Raneth]

Fey gave a nod and a smile to Kai. "Not a scratch, darling. You alr-...?" Her question stopped as she caught the sound of the muffled groan too and she exchanged glances with Kai before she started to move rather clumsily through the foam towards the source of the sound. There had been survivors... and they had been bound.

She almost started to move towards the sound, until Cal gave directions. Yeah, that sounded reasonable - let the big guys help with the crew and the survivors. "Alright, on it." Hopefully her own commlink hadn't been too busted up from the crash and foam.

[Soren Lom]

Soren walked forward calmly pulling out a stim and stabbing himself in the leg as he approached the captives to see what kind of restraints held them in place.

He quickly saw the binders the imperials had put on them and after brushing away some of the foam Soren began unlocking the prisoners one by one with nary a word.
