Who:- Rio Lomaz
Where:- Blue Dwarf
When:- Multliple
RIio walked groggily along the corridor, finally, after 14 trips to and from the Island landing point, shuttling crew memebrs back and forward to Blue Dwarf she could finally get some rest. Wasn't particuarly fair, she mused that Jay and Efof get to have all the fun on earth and Dean, only has to make one trip to Blue Dwarf, while she, Kara and Amber spend the better part of 20 hours taking the astro-grease monkeys that call themselves engineers back to the Dwarf.
Although, she reminded herself the whole reason Dean only had to make one journey was because most of the crew refused to fly with him, those that did were held at gunpoint usually.
Still on the navigation level, she decided a drink was in order before retiring to her quarters for the night, and turned left to enter the Pilot's Bar, the door's hissed open and she stepped through. She didnt pay alot of attention to her surroundings, just walked staright to the bar. "The usual.." she said wearily to the bartender, without looking up.
"Now how in tarnation am ah supposed to be knowing wit that is if ah aint neva sin ya's aroond here before lil' lady"
"Quit fooling Carl" she said "Im tired, I'm not in the mood"
"Carl? Who in tarnation is Carl?"
Rio looked up, with the intention of giving the bartended 'the look' but sure enough, it wasn't Carl. In fact this wasn't even the pilot's bar at all.
"We serve's whisky and whisky only in here" the bartender said, and he slid a bottle and glass along the bar to Rio.
"What the hell is going on?" Rio asked
She looked around the bar, the place was full of people in cowboy costumes playing poker, in fact the bar itself looked a completley different building, smeg, it WAS different, it was a western saloon.
She felt a hand around her waist and a whisperng in her ear "You's a purty thing, what say you me go upstairs and git....better acquainted like"
Rio pushed the man away and broke the whisky bottle over his head for good measure, then bolted for the twin saloon doors that had replaced the sliding doors. Running through, the found herself again in Blue Dwarf's corridor, and the saloon doors were gone.
"What the smeg?" she asked herself, and ran a hand across the doors that once again, were the entrance to the Pilot's bar.
Curious, she tried another door, this was the double door's to the main shuttlebay, she tapped in her access code and speed through the doors as they opened, normally, she'd have found a few docked shuttle's and one or two maintenance staff. Instead she found herself standing in on a beach. She looked back, the doors she had come through looked to now be the boarding ramp of a small boat, of which alot of armed men were charging out of, there were lots of these boats landing up and down the beach, and there was a hell of a lot of noise going on, looking back at the beach she saw several of the armed men, falling, a few making it on and up the beach, the place was littered with explosions, but there was something familiar about the place. "Omaha beach..." she told herself "This is where my parents used to bring me and my brothers as kids..where we stayed at the French Villa..but..wait a second.." the body of a young man flated up by her knees. "EW!!!" she screamed, "United States Army?" she read off his helmet, she was interuppted from her train of thoughts by a bullet ripping into her arm. "AAGH!! SMEG!" she screamed, and clutched her arm to try and stop the bleeding, albeit unsuccesfully. "ITS SMEGGING D-DAY I GOTTA GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!" she bolted back, into the boat, diving past a hail of gunfire as she did so, and crashed into the wall on the other side of Blue Dwarf's corridor. "Its like the ship's split across different time periods.." she mused "I gotta get to the drive room...AAH!" she winced in pain at her bullet wound "First things first..."
Still grabbing her arm she got up to leg it to sick bay, hoping sick bay was still there.
