The Buccaneers Bay

[Darkard]

Meanwhile, Mick had managed to get himself lost in the crowd as it surged forward for beer. He was already a little unsteady from the three or nine pints he had already while idling in the bar. By the time he had reached the stage the drinks were long gone. Disapointed and angry Mick pushed back into the mob and shoved his way though towards the door. If there was no booze here, he would have to break into his emergency suppy back in his quarters or face the daunting prospect of sobriety.

Although Micks luck suddenly turned as a Buccanner shoved a large bottle of somthing foul into his hands.

"Hold my drink while I kick this guys butt" was what Mick hoped the Pirate had said before diving into a brawl. Regardless, Mick now had a drink and a path was clearing though the cargo-bay as space was made by men falling over and other men standing over them to get a better aim on thier face. By Micks math the Buccaneers were only taking up half as much room now.

After avoiding a few fists and legs Mick stepped out of the cavernous room and into one of the service corridoors where a few survivors were being nursed back to heath by some of the female crew while other less fortunate men stood bleeding on thier own.

A small team of Medics clattered past Mick, apparently they had not been invited the to promotion party, possibly by somone who had planned ahead carefully. More probably by somone who felt health care was a crap profession taken up only by light weights and cowards. Mick managed to attract the attention of one of the better looking female medics with a shake of his booze and a suggestive nod of the head. As she snuck away from the rest of the medics Mick broke out into a broad smile.

"So, hows about we go have a private party eh?" Mick shook the bottle again "I got plenty more back at my place"

The medic looked back over her shoulder at the wounded Buccaneers and then back at Mick.

"Lets go" she said.

And with those two words Mick's day just got a whole lot better.
