Enter the pirate

[spacerrogue]

She's shooting across the starts in her ship trying to keep a Green Lantern off her tail. This is a huge misunderstanding but she can' get him to listen. How come she can rob and fight with the best of them but the times she tries to do the right thing things get hard.

"This is Red Wing to anyone listening, I need some back up. Got an angry GL on ,my si--- whoa baby!" She barely dances her ship out of the way of another bolt of green. She can see it explode not too far off. Damn it she needs to talk to them!

Why is it no one ever listens? This time she's trying to be good.

"Come on girl," she coos to her ship. "Just keep this up. You're the best darling. Don't let this stick in the mud GL keep us down.... For once it's more than you and me."

She hits the controls again trying to out maneuver the Green Lantern. This is just crazy. How can one angry man keep up with her like this? The Thangarian grits her teeth. No one is going to beat her. Not today! She still has far too much to do.

Audibly growling, Avalon swipes at his nose in irritation that it's still leaking, and gives her a stern look. "I don't care about priors, all I care about is what you were doing running from the Corps, if all you were doing was transporting something in a legal fashion." he snaps.

She coughs a little looking suddenly embarrassed.

"I may have run off with some medical supplies? I did leave goods worth the cost it'd take to replace them behind but.... maybe someone got pissy? I mean I was sure I left an extra fifteen percent of what they'd need and for fuck's sake, it's one of the richest planets in the whole Sector. They can afford a little thieving now and then." She shrugs widely.

"I was taking them to Bule Fel. The colonyy got it bad by a plauge. Heard the reports about how bad shit is going down there..... Felt like helping out. If they get the supplies they'll be able to start up treatment. That way the slavers and raiders won't be able to hit 'em hard next time they make their rounds in the sector. They like waiting 'till the local GL is distracted by something else.... Hope I didn't do more harm than good." She looks thoughtful about that then concerned that she may have just done that.

In the distance, there's a bright flare in the sky.

Over Avalon's ring, Henry's voice comes up. //Hey, Blue, what do they put in those cores, anyway?//

"We can figure that out later." Avalon says in a tense tone to Henry. His eyes haven't left the Thangarian, and Henry can probably sense the seething anger from his partner's tone.

"I need you back planet-side. The captain of this vessel is disputing whatever charges she is facing, but we need you to know what the charges actually are." he goes on to explain to his partner.

"Urgh. If they want to charge with breaking and entering? They can. Maximum sentience on that world is a fine I can pay easy, maybe a two week cooling my heels period... longer if I get mouthy with a judge. They don't like lip from spacers," she's rolling her eyes.

"But I can show you all the intel I have. My computer should be fine. I'm not in the wrong here. It's an over reaction on their part."
