The home we knew as Earth, as been so overpopulated and all our resources have been taken from the land. Earth, as we knew it, had nothing left for us. Sending out in many ships, we as the human race try to find a new planet to live on. Some have been found, but also we can not simply go back to our old ways. Older traditions and life styles have been taken up as we started to colanize the various planets we have found. If you had a ship, a good crew, and a gun, work wouldn't be hard for you to find. Upon the Cargo Ship Mythrean, there was a crew already at work. They were either repairing the ship or finding jobs that they could do. The crew is made up of 5 people, or perhaps a couple more. They are docked at a small planet for the time being, repairing the ship as it had recently had been tried to be taken over. |

A man of regular size for the era, 5'10 and skinny. Sat atop the ship with a welding mask over his face and a torch in his hand. "I tellsya what. 'nother 'tack like dat' 'un and I dun think she'll fly again..." He was muttering to himself more than anything else but should anybody be nearby they would hear him clear as day. He leaned in closely as he started to torch at the damaged portion of the ship. "I tellsya I need'n ta be paid better'n I is fer puttin' up wit dis crap." Mutter mutter mutter. He wasn't a happy camper about constantly having to repair the ship, but he loved it so he wasn't really complaining. The man was always covered in grease of some sort and was constantly working on one thing or another when it came to their shoddy ship. Best in the universe. |

Jamie hunn'ed to himself, a ciggaret held between his lips. The twenty-six year old had flameing red hair and a good stout 'welders' build to him. He currently had his darkened goggles pulled on, welding a patch over a wall on the inside of the ship. The outside had already been repaired. Jamie, having been born on a 'floaters colony', or a space craft of humans, had never had the previlage of seeing Earth, never feeling it's soft grass beneith his feet. Hell, there were very few animals he'd acutally seen in person rather htan in a book! Again, Twenty something- Welders build, darn good look'n. Last name unknown! He wasn't really a mechanic on the ship, but he had worked with the ship;s mechanic long enough to know a thing or too. His expertiese was welding, cooking, and ...well being the 'Ship Bitch' as in, do this, do that, we need this go buy it! Ect ect. |

Standing on the ground, was a young woman, who was rather small. Not only in her height but her build as well. This young woman, who was only 18 years old, stood at about 4'8" tall. Her dirty blonde hair was tied up in a high ponytail while a pair of shades covered over her dark forest green eyes. Her arms were crossed under her breasts. "How is it coming?" Nicole would say as she tilted her head some. Nicole, much like Jamie, was born in space. Never having seen what earth was, but had heard storied about the places that they had visited that reminded the Captain of Earth. Nicole, may have been young, but she was also the best navigator and flyer in these parts of space. The Captain, Michael John McKay, was in the small building that was to the east of where the ship had been docked. He was currently in deep 'negotiations' for parts so that the ship could be fixed and flying again. By what this means for Mike's postion, was holding the Part's Keeper's head against a table, with a gun close to it so that man couldn't rip him off for what little money they had. "Alright! I'll give you the parts you want for a reasonable price!" The man would beg. Michael was about 6' tall. He was well into his prime, if not older. The man was about 55 years of age. Graying hair streaked down the sides of his head over his ears. He had a very rugged look to him. He had his scars, one being right down his right eye, which was lucky that it hadn't been blinded. He, was one of the orginal from Earth itself, but only when he was a wee boy so his memories of Earth were vague but enough to keep people interested. "Excellent, now have your men give my crew what they need and I'll maybe throw in a little extra since you've been so nice." He said with a small sneer before he let the man up. The man scrambled before parts were soon being left out by the ship rather quickly so that no one else would be loosing an eye or something. Nicole blinked and tilted her head some. "Looks like that Capt'n came through again. We got the parts we need to get Mythrean here up and flying again." |

Mit glanced over towards the younger boy, he himself in his thirties. "Ya don' be burnin' no holes through the hull boy. I be kickin' yar arse. Dis may be under da capt'n's command, but dis be my ship." That's the way he looked at it in the ship himself. He'd glance over towards the girl. "She goes. Now make yerself usefull and hand me up tha' plat'n." He glanced towards the younger man who was working before picking up a hammer and starting to slam it into what he'd just held the torch up against. |

Jamie flung his goggles up, "I ent burn'n no 'ole in dis 'ere ship!" He poorly mocked Mit's accent, then looked back to Nicole with a rougeish grin, "How you do'n?" He jerked his chin towards Nicole. What a cheeseball. -- Standing outside of the parts place was another shipmate, one that hadbeen long time friends with John. He was around the same age, though he never botherd to give up his true age to anyone. Anytime theywould ask, he'd always change it. His black hair was turning silver in the back, a scruffy in-need-ofa-shave beard pepperd his chin. He was well built, muscular, just as a enforcer should be. Or, Ex-Enforcer. There was a day and age that the man had been a force to be reckoned with, working as a Intergalatic Enforcer. Ya know, Space Police! But one thing lead to another and a deal gone wrong lost him his job, his title, and respect for the entirety of the Enforcers. He was 'boarderline' wanted. If he screwed up, someone was gunna try to be a hero. He was playing look-out when a few workers came out with the parts to load up a ship. His name was Reese. He stood just a inch shorter than the captain, was tanned, and had multiple tattoes on his arms and one or two elseware. He was the co-piolt, or backup piolt, what have you. |

Nicole arched a brow at Jamie and just shook her head some. She said nothing towards him as she moved to help unload some of the new parts so that they could be easily accessed for Mit and Jamie. She normally pretended like she didn't notice Jamie's flirts. Simply because she was still young and was in the phase of 'Looking for Mr. Perfect'. ~~ Michael stepped out of the building and looked at Reese. "That went better then I thought." He said with a sideways smirk before he cracked his neck slightly before he nodded towards the ship. "Lets see how long it's gonna take to get this baby off the ground and into the air." he said as he pulled out a cigar, lit it before walking towards the ship. "MIT!!!" he yelled out, "How long?!" |

Mit's eyes shot over towards the captain and he let a scowl cross over his lips. "Pert near fer'ver if ya don' be lett'n me work!" He yelled back at the captain. He looked at his work before sliding down the side of the ship to look at what the other male was doin. "Pay 'tention ta what ye be doin! Leav'n da lass 'lone!" He'd point aggressively towards what the male was working on before looking back to the captain. "Two hours Cap'n. Mayhap a bit more." And without argument, which was sure to come from the captain he'd grab hold of his ladder and pull himself back up, his spare part in hand after all. ~~~ Standing at the exit to the ship was a rather large fellow perhaps around the same size as the captain was. He wore a cowboy hat over his head and a pistol of some sort on his hip. He even had the cowboy boots! He leaned against the doorway, an apple in his hand CRUNCH! "Cap we got enough foodstores?" The man was young yet, in his early twenties. Twenty two or three. Bright blue eyes under sandy unkept hair. Buck was his name. |

Jamie watched Nicole roll her eyes and start to walk off, "Oi! Not eve'n a hello?" He grinned a little, hateing to see her go but oh so loving to see her walk away. When Mit slid down to his level, it made the young man jump a little, "Okay! Okay! Now get your fowl breath outta my face man!" He pulled his goggles on and slapped his gloved hands togeather as if to say 'Chop chop' before picking his torch up agian. "Blaaarrrrg! Look'it moi, oim Mit I am!" He went back to work. Reese smirked slightly, "Without a ripple." When they got back to the ship, he looked at their...uh...ragtag crew. "Jamie! Stop flapp'n yer lips and get back to work or I'll drop you at the next port!" It was an empty threat. Reese always threatened to leave Jamie on some deserted floater colony or something, but never did. |

Michael just nodded some towards Mit before glancing over towards Buck. "You'll be going with Miss. Nicole to the town below to gather what is needed for the food storage. She has a list." He said before looking back at Reese. He was always kept up to date. "While they are doing that, lets see if we can't find a job." Jobs had been tight and hard to find, but they managed. Nicole stepped up beside Buck and smiled some. "Ready to go." She said as the pointed towards the Land Rover. She glanced towards Jamie as he was threatened by Reese again and laughed slightly. She just shook her head before she took the front seat of the Land Rover and waited for Buck. Once he was on, they would be off to the town below the docking station! |

Mit just scoweled and went back to him. The boys mockery just bouncing off of him as if it had never happened. He'd go back to work, and grind the boy into the dirt with work if he had to. ~~~ But pushed off of the edge of the ship and tilted his hat to the girl. "Righto Cap." Taking another bite of his apple as he hopped onto the rover and grinned at the girl, giving her a small wink. "Ready when you are, darlin." And off they would go to get some food. Woosh! |

Jamie got back to work after taking a puff of his cigarete, tapping the ashes off to the side. Back to work! He welded away! Reese had walked over to the Land Rover and leaned aginst Nicole's door for a momment, "Be careful, this isnt the best of cities." The crime rate was alittle high although theft made the top of the list. He patted the side of the car after getting a responce from Nicole (or not) and walked back to John, "Alright, anywork, or good, honest, hard work?" Which for Reese sometimes ment smuggling. No one said he had the cleanest of records! |

Nicole looked at Reese and smiled. "Dun worry. Buck's got my back. See you when we get back." She said as she would have headed off. The town wouldn't have been more then a 15 minute drive and once they were there, she made sure to put the Rover somewhere that it would be safe before heading to a small store that looked like it had what they needed. Stepping inside, she looked around. The shop owner looked at her and tilted her head some before a disgusting smile curled up on his slimey looking face. "Weeeeelllll, what do we have here?" Nicole blinked and had to swallow some vomit that came up in the back of her throat before she slammed the list down and put her hand on a small handgun she had at her side. "I need everything that is on this list, and don't think twice about over pricing anything." She pointed towards Buck. "He'll make sure that you keep yourself in line." She might have been the only female on the crew, but she knew how to take care of herself. Had too where she grew up. ~~ Michael nodded some, breathing in from his cigar. "Well, lets get on that." He said before he turned back towards the Building they had come out of. There was a board with bounties and other jobs on it. He stood infront of it, hand on his gun as he looked over the jobs. "Anything pop out at you, Reese?" Course, this didn't mean that someone in the room couldn't hire them for something. As long as it paid well, Michael did just about anything. |

Buck placed his own hand on a revolver with a slight grin on his face. The bit of scruff and the toothpick in his teeth only helped to make him look that much more intimidating. "N' I'd be thinkin' twice about making any kind of advances towards the lil' lady here." That menacing grin on his face. There was a reason buck was on the crew, we'll just have to get to it later. |

Reese watched the pair drive off, then followed Michale toward the bullitan board. He glanced over a few things before plucking off a 'Galatic Warning' that had his photo on it. He chuckled a little, "Dim wits..." He crinkled it up and shoved it into his pocket. It wasnt exactly a bounty, but it put him out on a warning list of someone not to be approached. "Here." He tugged another posting off the board, "Someone needs a shipment taken to Quandrent Nine." Not too terribly far from where they were now, but it was known for pirates. Yes. Space Pirates. "Unless you don't think the ship is gunna be up fer that." He looked over his shoulder and squinted, watching as Jamie just about fell off his seat. He sighed and shook his head, turning back towards the boad. "'Tard...why'd you hire him on, anyway? He's goofy....just goofy." Jamie had been a part of the crew for several years now! Well, seven at least. He had owed Michale some money, ya see, and it ....well it was alot of money, acutally. |
