The Plague Logs

[Marburg]

After Breakfast w/ Moira, I went back home to Islay so I could fix the rep issues I aquired during all my fightin's w/ the Molly's in Dublin. The Bret Navy wasn't bein' no bother, so I signed up ta 86 me some Hunters.

Now, there were these two fellas named 'Darth' & 'Jamez' outside Islay when I first docked, but I paid 'em no mind past offerin' up my standard 'Howdy' ta those that show green ta me.

On the way ta my mission I realized these fellers were outside in my front yard baitn' me...& I took it.

I cancelled my mission, & invited 'em ta come talk to me about it in front of Gaia ...one at a time.

Now, y'all know by now, my cookie crumbles kinda slow, & it took awhile ta talk it out... but, Edinburgh is my home & I don't take kindly ta people trackin' mud 'round my house.

I took a peek at Jamez first, cause that muppet seemed ta be the bigger gun 'tween the two, so I asked him ta go sit on the bleachers & have a tall glass of lemonaide while enjoying the view of the rumble.

I sat & cracked my knuckles while waitin' fer Darth ta fire on me first, & we sat eyeballin' each other till I basically told 'em that daylight was burnin'.

Fire on me he did, & my shield went south in one shot.

I got to a full gallop quick as silver & worked my tail off just gettin' him in my sights.

Soon enough, I got a couple of good shots on him, but was startin' ta think maybe my mouth was writing a bad check...I had a moment though, when, during a roll, I saw Darth start ta pass under me... so I closed my eyes, exhaled, & pulled the trigger.

By the time I straightened out, I realized Darth took the 'Shortcut To Hell' & was gone.

Now... that got Jamez's dander up somethin' fierce: He puffed out his chest & charged me like an ancient Texas longhorn.

I 'ole'd him like a bullfighter... circleing him & punchin' his shields a fair bit, but... he zigged when I zagged & that puffy gunboat chest 'o his knocked me into a fireball.

Looks like Gaia found her balance.

Now fellas: Since, as far as I can tell, we ain't enemies...I'm willin' ta buy the beer on neutral ground sometime if y'all get thirsty at some point.

BUT... (& hear me here Gentlemen) ...I can drink blood just as well as beer & still get a buzz, so, I'm gonna go about my business unless y'all got other plans.

talk ta all 'o y'all tomorrow...I'm off ta go paint a silhouette of Darth's boat under my cockpit window. :yahoo:
