Highlander: The Fate of The Game (started)

[CRAVE CASE 55]

Entering the room where the other immortals are

"Oi get the fuck to the top the boats on fire."

As he turns to run back up the stairs something catches his eye. A Turkish Kilij sword with a very profound curve. Similar to that of Vlad the Impalers sword.

"Well Canesfort shouldent mind to much if I save one of his treasures from the fire. It's just like a big kukri."

He said as he smashed the glass and took the sword and its scabbard.

 

[Voidrunner]

Edward was wating at the top of the stairs, trying to figure out how he would make it to the speed boats without getting shot. Immortal as he was, getting shot would still put him out of action long enough for someone to take his head. He spotted Remi coming up the stairs behind him gestured for him not to go further.

"It's a madhouse up there, they've docked the speedboats beside the ship, I'm planning on stealing one of those, there's no way we'd outrun if we were in the lifeboats."

Spoiler: OOC

Oh and about that random post, I highly suspect that was one of those bots that pretends to be a real member. I checked out its three posts and one contained a link which is usually a good sign its trying to sell something.

 

[Jeff Gibson]

Remi nodded and pulled out his revolver once more. He knew just charging up there was probably an unwise idea, but he also knew that they were running out of time. The smell of smoke growing ever stronger in his nostrils, he looked up the stairs. "How many of those lunatics do you think are up there?"

 

[Voidrunner]

"Considering most guests have fled below deck now, there should only be a good ten or so men up there hunting the last few guests, if we make a good run for it we should be able to steal one of their speedboats and be on our way back to the docks. Even if they manage to shoot us they won't be able to catch up fast enough to finish the job." Edward looked back down the stairwell, if others didn't turn up soon they'd have to find their own way to escape.

Bogs searches the ship eventually finding Remi and Canesfort

"What in the hell is going on? I've been wandering this ship nothing but nuts with guns and knives."

Scratching his head Bogs looks around "Where are the others?"

 

[Jeff Gibson]

Remi was considering their options when another Immortal approached. He turned to face the newcomer. "The others are still downstairs, I do believe. As for the 'nuts'..." He just stood there and shrugged. "I have no idea. We are, however, in the process of relieving them of one of their boats." Remi looked over at Edward. "What do you think, Monsieur Canesfort? Can we manage this with only three?"

 

[Voidrunner]

"Perhaps we could but I would prefer Liam was here to assist us, he also carries a gun and I think he has some experience in these matters, where did you last see him? If he's below deck he'll need to hurry before the whole place is up in flames."

 

[Jeff Gibson]

Remi nodded. "He is still below, rounding up the others. I came up to assist you with the lifeboats." Remi looked down the stairs. "They are taking longer than I expected. I wonder if something happened." He looked back at Edward. "I do not think we should wait around for much longer. It is starting to get quite warm in here."

 

[N_of_the_dead]

Bogs listens in on the conversation "Well I'm interested in getting a boat before they become unavailable."

"Now where are these boats you speak off?" Bogs opens his jacket once more drawing his kurabella ready to leave.

 

[Voidrunner]

"Two speedboats, one on either side of the ship, if we move fast we can take one and get back to shore before this whole place goes up in smoke." Edward could also feel the heat from the fire below deck and knew they couldn't wait much longer and was forced to make a hard decision.

"I hate to say it but there's nothing to be down for the mortals on this boat, as for the immortals remaining...their immortality can save them from fire and drowning, if they do not join us on the speedboat they may still survive this." Edward paused for a few seconds before finally acting, "Lets go!" Edward swung the hatch open, surprising a man who was walking past and throwing him down the hatch before sprinting towards the side of the boat. Cries sounded along the deck and people began to fire at him, bullets splintering the deck around him.

 

[N_of_the_dead]

Bogs followed Edward in suit running along the deck towards the two speedboats the deck around him splintering and rupturing as holes appear along the ground.

"Luckily for us they can't shoot worth a damn." the end of the sentence shouted as loud as possible.

 

[CRAVE CASE 55]

Bounding back up the stairs hopefully with the other immortals soon to follow Liem is suprised when he gets near the top and sees a man come flying down the steps at him. As he runs by he calmly shoots the man in the chest without much of a care. When he gets to the top he Sees the captain and Remi and another Immortal making a run around open ground for the boat and Joins them in their charge. P99 in one hand, Kilij in the other.

 

[Jeff Gibson]

Remi charged up the stairs with the others, revolver in hand. As bullets flew all around him, Remi didn't bother to return fire, instead slugging a nearby man in the face as he ran. As they raced for the boat, Remi noticed Liem running alongside them. "Ah, Monsieur Liem. How wonderful you could join us."

 

[Technetium]

Xhan had waited long enough. He now decided to move. It was either that or incineration, and he didn't fancy a barbecue. He ran off, up the stairs and to a lifeboat.

 

[CRAVE CASE 55]

"Oi it's good to still have a head." He said with a chuckle

"Hey Captain I hope you don't mind that I took a little piece of history do you?"

He said waving the sword at him as they ran

 

[Voidrunner]

Edward laughed as he saw Liam waving the sword, "no, better you have than it being lost at sea like all the rest of this stuff will be!" Edward made it to the side of the ship and ignored the rope ladder, simply throwing himself over the side into one of the speedboats.

"Come on, we've got to get back to shore now!"

 

[CRAVE CASE 55]

"Haha thanks, an overgrown Kukri."

He said as he was getting up landing in the boat

 

[Jeff Gibson]

A bullet whizzed past Remi's ear as he leaped onto the speedboat. "Allons-y!" He glanced back at the ship, silently wishing the other Immortals luck.

 

[N_of_the_dead]

Bogs dives off the side of the ship landing in the speed boat with his fellow immortals

"Well this is a lot better than a fire" Looking around bullets flying pass the boat hitting the water

"But not by much"

 

[Voidrunner]

"There are still lifeboats, we can only hope the remaining immortals don't have too much trouble getting back to shore." Edward revved the motor on the speedboat and they were soon roaring back towards shore, much the rage of the crazed killers on deck. The port holes on the sides of the ship were cracking in the heat and smoke was billowing out.

"The police are going to have a field day with this, and the newspapers."
