Log 23: Tree murder

Mar 23, 2010 15:20

Are the trees in the forest important to anyone? I thought I'd ask the crew first before knocking a few down.

[Samus was up in the forest standing amidst the creek, practicing some staff fighting on her own. Rather than using a wooden staff, she had taken to a barbell, a nice 45 pound (20 kg for you metric folks) beating stick.]

[Andrew has been acquainting himself with the boat since arriving here this weekend, but only now has he discovered the forest.

...he shouldn't go into the forest. Especially with that sound coming from within. For all he knows, there could be a demon in there eating woodland creatures.

Something better to think about, though? Why is there a forest on this boat?

Against his better judgment, he ventures a little ways into the forest, glancing back over his shoulder every couple of seconds.

Imagine his surprise in seeing a... rather attractive-looking woman hitting a tree. Interesting.]

Uhm... hello? Are you alright?

[Yes, he is ready to turn around and run at any moment. He's good at that.]

[She shot a quick glance over her shoulder, assessing the man fast. He was no threat to her, unless he had some hidden ability. Many on the boat did. Either way, she slipped out of her stance and set one end of her barbell down before turning to face him.

She wiped a bit of sweat off her forehead before speaking.]

Yes. Just training.

[He shifts awkwardly a little under her gaze. His hidden talent is of no use on this boat, even if he did try to use it. Summoning demons probably wouldn't work so well here. Not that he even wants to. He's through with the evil gig and demon stuff is pretty evil.]

Uhm, training for what? Are you, like, a ninja? [He chuckles a little to himself.

...but that would be so cool.]

Bounty Hunter ...

[She didn't know what a ninja was, but assumed it was some sort of warrior.]

The boat's a violent place. There's a few that I expect to have to defend myself or others from.

YES!

[There was a rustling and a scrambling and a few moments later, Kairi dropped down from one of the trees.

She landed in a crouch, but her footing slipped on the mossy ground and for a moment she looked like she was going to topple into the creek. But she managed to save herself, and sprang to her feet.]

Um... Hi.

[When there was a sound falling out of the tree, Samus turned and spun her barbell in position to strike. Then she realized it was a child, so she set her staff down and stepped over to see if she needed help.

Apparently she didn't, the girl seemed nimble enough.]

Hello?

[Kairi had expected some kind of axe or sword for tree-chopping, but that was some stick.]

I like to sit up there, looking out over the ocean, in the trees.

Not all of them though, hehe. I just didn't want to be in one that you happened to chop down, heh.

I wasn't intending on chopping one down. It could happen though ...

[She chuckled.]

So you like the water?
