Without a Trace (A DMDTS Sequel)

[THEBIRD]

(( I wanted to name one of them Ernie, and Bert was the next name that popped into my mind, so I used it XD Don't judge me. ...Not just Elmo, there's Big Bird and the Cookie Monster, too! Oh god, I wouldn't be surprised if some of those names pop up now... The idea's in my head now... ))

Solon stayed unconscious, the bullet still lodged in his shoulder.

((Is there a hidden Sesame Street in the town? >.>))

Jas slips onto the pirate ship and around a corner, signaling the rest to stop while she checks to see if it's safe to proceed. They seem in the clear for a bit, until rushed footsteps followed by a deep grumbling approach them. Something about "Intruders, on board," is mentioned. Without a second thought, Jas snaps her fingers, and lets her flames engulf the incoming pirate, leaving nothing behind but gray ash. Then the party is on the move again, now descending into the cellar.

Riou carried Solon to the docks. He saw only one large ship ((The pirate ship)) and climbed aboard. He then set solon down and pried the bullet from shoulder, spraying disinfectant, and then covered the wound with gauze.

((Screw Sesame Street; where's my Avenue Q?))

Harver continued to follow Jas and the rest of the group, making sure no one was left behind. ...Must she act so hastily?

[Max Headroom]

Mira followed Jas and Harver with caution.

Solon groaned softly and his eyes twitched. The prying and spraying had hurt and it was almost enough to wake him up. Finally his eyes slowly opened. He blinked a few times, getting used to this foreign new setting he had came upon. "Ow," he muttered when he had moved his arms to lift himself up. He had noticed Riou, but did not address him at the moment, still too preoccupied trying to find his own issues out. He was able to make himself stand without using his arms. He looked at the wound, which seemed to have been cleaned and bandaged. It probably would be good if he got it sutured, too, but he didn't worry about that now. Surprised, he looked back over at the only other person on the boat with him.

"What happened?" he asked. "Was this you?" He was referring to his cleaned wound and the fact that he was now on a ship: the very ship he was supposed to be on, which seemed to just dawn on his head as he took a moment to look around at it. "Hey, this is the pirate ship! Wow, how did you know?" he questioned, turning back to face the man who seemed to have helped him.

[Kierou]

"Yes, I cleaned your wound. It seemed like the only ship large enough to hold a group." Riou said, "All the others are one-man ships."

[Light]

((..."One-man ship"? Never heard of one. xD))

[Kierou]

((Dingies. For example.))

[Anarchy_Jas]

Jas holds a small flame in her hand to use as a light source. The ninja steps lightly, trying not to make any loose floorboards creek. She makes her way to the far corner of the cellar, then whispers, "We can stop here and wait," and crouches down.

((There are also single kayaks.))

"Why can't we just take off?" Jason commented. "Or maybe we need to wait until they come back aboard to hijack it?"

[THEBIRD]

"Thanks," Solon said, nodding his head in respect. "Everyone else must be on this ship..." He walked around slowly, lost in thought for a moment. Then he turned back around. "By the way, what's your name? I'm Solon." He reached out a hand to shake Riou's.

[Anarchy_Jas]

"We wait for the blondie," Jas' eyes glow eerily in the small flame. "That, and none of us know how to steer a ship..." Her mind flashes back to the time said blond tried to do so. It wasn't pretty. "We hide, let the pirates maneuver it, and sneak back off."

[Kierou]

"Riou." he answered, taking Solon's hand and shaking it firmly.

[Max Headroom]

"Don't we want control over the ship as soon as possible?" Mira asked. "The whole point of taking their ship is to use it to get to Monte Island, am I right?"
