(I didn't get a notification for this, sorry it took so long.)

"hmm," Jayne nodded in agreement. "But you're ok with killing Firestein? That's why you guys came here." Jayne frowned was it only Misty who had said that? "You realize it's my job to keep him safe," Jayne pulled his handgun and held it to Crows forehead, he wasn't sure why these kids had let him keep it, had he somehow earned their trust or were they just that disorganized that they didn't notice he had kept it? "and there's nothing you can do to stop me from doing my job." Jayne tensed, realizing he didn't want to hurt the kid. "Put your sword on the floor." He growled.

Crow hesitated, unsure how to answer. "Well, it wasn't my idea-" he stopped as he realized there was a gun pointed at his head. He mentally cursed at himself for not noticing the gun earlier. Or maybe he had noticed, and had just chose to believe that Jayne wouldn't use it against him. Don't trust anyone. That was what he had learned, the hard way. He slowly unsheathed his sword and dropped it on the ground. "Jayne." He said, trying hard to stay calm, "I know what this looks like, but you don't need to do this." Crow's eyes were locked on the gun's trigger the entire time, his whole body tense.

(GUYS LET'S FUN, K?)

Gage got to his feet, albeit shakily. The place smelled of rust and something damp. The elevator music sputtered out, and silence fell so much that he could hear himself breathe.
"It's empty." He whispered at last.
Slowly, he shuffled toward the cells where they had been interrogated just days prior. "It seems so long ago... When we found Noel."

Meanwhile, the 'Noel' they had rescued had Chase by the throat.

Gabriel snuck up to a sphere and peeked inside to where a spider girl lay curled in on herself. Wakey wakey. He said, watching her shuffle as he did so, and grinned. How long had they waited for this day?
He tapped the control panel with a much-practiced code.

Sammy finally snapped out of her trance. "Stop!" she shouted, "You don't have to kill him! Don't... don't you have to interrogate him first?" She asked, trying to keep the hope out of her voice.

(You could have him following Tayn, in firesteins base looking for Janet)

(yep you can be with me, Tayn told people to follow. I just went in to the hall way with barred cells, and found Janet and Barnes. I have no way of unlocking it.)

(It's alright Crow would have seen him shoot at Maru. XD )

Jayne was relieved the kid was cooperating. But, now what to do with him? He frowned, taking a half step back, and partially lowering his gun. Lock him up? or leave him? It wasn't going to take long for the others to get downstairs.
"Go home kid." He growled, grabbing the doorknob with his free hand and backing out of the room. Jayne hoped he would listen, he didn't like the idea of killing kids, but he would have to if they threatened Firestein. Jayne ran for the stairs and went down as quickly as he could without falling.

(perhaps somebody can call Zen or start a conversation idk.... )

K. So Dryden's in a prison....that should turn out well.//

(he's in a prison, but not imprisoned. they are at the Sound of Silence.)

 

[Laodicia]

I think Zen is too??? XD

(If you wanted to keep that post you did earlier you can, and I can have Tayn spot you and get you out. Though I'm not sure why you would be locked up. was Zen at the coffee shop? He met up with the group near the end of the battle I'm pretty sure. If you keep your old post... Zen assumed he had passed out again. Maybe Firestein had our group followed? Maybe Jayne thought that you were an easy target if you were caught off guard Zen would be pretty hard to hit if he knew it was coming, and messaged for you to be taken out? Maybe Firestein intended to use Zen as leverage if/when our group came for him?
??? That's a little out of character for Jayne since Zen and Crow are the same age...but the main reason for letting Crow go besides age was it would take too much time to lock him up. Of course if that was the intention behind why Firestein would want to lock up Zen then he would likely not still be in a cell... but where ever Firestein is. )

 

[MissNutmeg]

(We could do that then. What if Zen is being held as a hostage and itll take a dramatic deal to get him out? I don't know how that'll work out though)

Okay, so do they have, like, a mission they're trying to accomplish, or...//
