Dulkor jumped a bit as his own ship barely flew past Jenn's.
"What the?! My ship! Some prick stole my ship!"

Jenn laughed. "Well, if someone hadn't taken it, it would have been destroyed with the colony..."

After a little practice and a quick crash course (figuratively speaking), Aegis finally got a handle over the controls of the ship, and managed to fly it steadily... with a bit of help from his partner.
"What will you do without me?" the girl smiled, and slumped against her chair.
"Meh," was his reply. "At any rate, you get some rest. I'm gonna take us out of here."

"Yeah, yeah, but it's the principle of the thing," he sighed, leaning against a nearby wall and watching as the colony was about to be destroyed.

"Hmm... looks like your in trouble, now, arent you?" Maxwell said from the shadows, laughing at the two silently. "Check the secret hanger beneath you. I trust you'll find the local government's little... secret... entertaining..." HE said, as he walked into the light... and out of existance, dissapearing in plain sight as if stepping behind an invisible curtain.

Davis Charon looked over at his companion for the trip. "I doubt it. Of course, I'm a cynisist. I'm Davis by the way."

OOC; Wait, what just happened? In my last post, I was outside Dulkor's shipwhen it was still locked. That was a day ago, and now Aegis just took the ship, along with Wind and Pk. You guys literally went into the ship while passing RIGHT BY my character. Alright, screw it, plot hole time: Mikaru escapes the colony right before the first GX blast using an small figher ship from the docking bay. Complete with a few missiles and dual beam cannons.

OOC: Whoops, sorry about that, Mikaru. I forgot you were there! ^^()
"Dammit..." Matrix growls, bracing himself against a wall as the ship shakes violently, "Have they started firing?! Wonderful. I get a ship, but die anyway. Damn you, my non-existant sense of direction..."
A sudden huge jolt tosses Paul across the corridor into the other wall.
"Ow...what the hell?"
Another jolt throws him around again, although this time it is obvious that the ship is moving.
What...? Is there someone else on this ship? Paul gets himself back onto his feet. Besides a few bruises, he's fine.
"This thing can't be that big..." he whispers to himself, "I'm bound to run into SOMEBODY." Paul continues on his way, making a left turn at the next junction (since, you know, the best way out of a maze is to keep going left) and unknowingly heading straight for the cockpit.
OOC: Aegis, question: Are you in your human or saurian form right now?
EDIT: Nevermind, Aegis. I just skimmed through your earlier posts.

"Control, this is Thor's Hammer. Have received second microwave burst. FIRING!"
The GX fired its mighty cannon again directly at the remaining half of the colony. Though only a quarter strength blast, it still managed to destroy the bulk of it, with the last bits either scattering towards space or blowing away from Von Braun.
"Nice work, Thor. Return to base." Control said.
"I'll need assistance. Just about all my systems are shorted out." Thor's Hammer reported.
"Roger. Escort Leader, assign two of your pilot's to help Thor's Hammer back to base, then send the rest of your team to shoot down debris." Control ordered.
"Affirmative, Control. Escort 9, Escort 10. Help our charge back to base. The rest of you, we're to shoot down debris still headed for the surface."
A chorus of rogers came as two of the MS broke off to carry the paralyzed superweapon to base.
"Sorry about letting those fighters hit you. They just seemed to come out of nowhere." Escort 10 said.
"Yeah, but don't fighters like that usually come in squads of 6 or 12? There were only five out there." Escort 9 replied.
"Then where's the sixth?" Escort 10 asked.
"Better report it to the captain." Escort 9 said.

As the GX cannon fires for the last time at the colony, Mikaru watches as the remains of the colony are destroyed by the blast
"Good thing I found this thing just in time" thought Mikaru. He looked over a few systems and was taken over by a look of "I'm screwed." started a slow chuckle which turned into a small. whimpering cry.
"Great, I got nowhere to go, barely any money, and stuck in a fighter jet" said Mikaru out loud. Just then, Mikaru picked up some other ships on the radar.
"They most of escaped from the colony as well" thought Mikaru. Maybe the could direct Mikaru to some place where he could start over.

OOC: Admittedly, the part where you said 'think of another plan to escape' kinda made me think you would've left. 'sides, I was given the go ahead to take that ship anyways, plus the fact your posts kinda got buried along with everyone else's, so in the end I kinda forgotten. IC: Aegis and the girl both turned as Paul walked into the cockpit, seemingly lost. While the girl was startled by the intrusion, Aegis didn't seem fazed one bit, as he seem to recognise the intruder immediately. "Have we met?" he asked.

"You can call me Wind." he replied, "Now stay here, I'll be back."
Wind then got up and went in search of the bridge.

"I don't know about you," said Jenn as she leaned back in her pilot's chair, "but that were some damn good fireworks. Where to?"
-------------------- Several minutes ago DC watched the white-hot energy beam draw closer and closer to the colony. He smiled as the beam engulfed the colony and his entire view faded to white.
So warm...
The colony vanished around him, and the beam narrowed, then disappeared. DC found himself drifting in space. He shook his head and disappeared.

"Quite impressive, although I'm honestly not sure why Hammer of Light attacked that colony. But it doesn't matter. Since the military interfered they'll probably try something else soon enough. Maybe if I'm lucky my friends will know what the next target is, and I can try to get something to replace that data. I've gotta hand SOMETHING over to the Shadowmaster (OOD: not magic, refering to a black market leader)," he stretched a bit, "So, where're we headed?"

"Have we met?"
For the second time in Paul's life, he is having a severe case of deja vu. He's MET this man before, he KNOWS his name...its on the tip of his tongue...
"I doubt it," he is quick to reply, shrugging the feeling off. He's probably thinking of someone else.
"Oh..." the man replies. There is a momentary silence.
"So...Is this your ship? Where are we headed?"
