The docking bay.

[Grumblesaur]

Kurt stalked the halls of Alcatraz leading into the docking bay. He kicked a few rat corpses aside and picked up a can of spray paint.

Across the bay, he saw Ashes Yotaka's Barghest. "Damn it all..." he grumbled as he placed a stencil on the hull of the ship. "She tagged the battleship..." he sighed. He pressed down on the nozzle and let the red paint hiss onto the stencil and ship hull.

In a sudden moment of compulsive misbehavior, he painted "Sylpheed Sucks!" on the hull of the bomber.

"He won't know until he returns... hehehe..." Kurt chuckled to himself. He threw the can of paint at a rat scurrying across the hangar bay floor. It promptly fell over and died.

He proceeded to stalk the halls back to the Communications and Briefing room, in all its ragtag pirate glory, and flipped on the console, waiting to see if anyone would actually listen to him.
