(Blue Dwarf) 'Just following the trail of chaos'
Blue Dwarf
Promenade
Donover didn't want to be doing this, it was meant to be his day off. But Major Harris had assigned him to the task of tracking down Private Penny Lloyd.
Donover entered the last bar he had yet to check on the promenade. He went up to the barman and asked. "I'm looking for woman."
"Aren't we all." The barman responded and there was a snigger from the rest of bar.
"It's not like that, she's a AWOL security officer." Donover explained.
"What does she look like?" The barman enquired.
"Around five foot three to five foot five, fair hairÂ…" Donover told the barman.
"Oh, she was here yesterday." The barman leapt in. "She was here with a greaseball who ordered a Dirty Pint."
"A Dirty Pint!" Donover commented knowing all too well what a Dirty Pint was.
"The last person to order one of them was security officer Death Wish." The barman told Donover.
"I know. I saw the aftermath of Death Wish's drunken bender! God that was a frightening sight" Donover explained to the barman and then he asked. "What happened after that?"
"The woman had a number of drinks, she got up on one of the tables and started to dance." The barman said.
"Dance?" Donover commented.
"Badly, she fell off the table." The barman told the ensign. "I threw them out before anything else happened, the last thing I need in here is another drunken brawl."
"Did you see where they went next?" Donover asked.
"Sorry, can't help you here." The barman said.
"Thanks anyway." Donover told the barman.
"Tell your boss, Harris, to stop harassing me!" The barman told Donover. "Everyday he pays me a visit and scares away most of my customers!"
Donover looked around the bar to see most of the barman's customers were in fact security officers that should have been on active duty.
Donover considered saying something but throught better of it, he didn't stay alive this long by telling his fellow security officers what to do and then he left the bar. He started to think to himself. 'Now where would a drunken security officer who loved to blowing things up go?'
