((Quick banner update - This could take a while Working on 3rd character now, just 16 more left!))

Horatio shakes his head at Randy.

"No way, if the submarines an option I'm sticking to it."

[Tempest Fennac]

(The other title I made was actually from Home by 3 Days Grace). Do you know how to pilot a sub, Horatio? Also, how many people can our smallest sub hold?

[The Bushranger]

Bushranger stretches.
I don't need a sub, water's a little more difficult than air but I can 'fly' through it just as well.

[Raistlin1040]

Raistlin smiles. Of course not. He says to De, kissing her sweetly on the lips.

[randman22222]

((I'd offer to help, but take a look at my avatar. That's why I don't))

All right, if you guys can find a sub, good. Then you'll have to figure out how to pilot it. I'm off to the armoury, to grab a few harpoons and such. I walk off.
A bit later I telepathize, with the help of Tempest's earpiece...
Oooo. Underwater crossbow. There's only one though. Guess who gets it?

[banjo1985]

Horatio looks shocked and shakes his head.

"I don't know, I've never pilotted one before! I'm always willing to have a go though."

Whether it would be safe to let an inexperienced ex-parrot pilot a sub is a completely different matter.

[Diva De]

De kisses him back happily, then gives him a mock frown. Good, because I hate being laughed at. She gives a long stretch and rests her arms around his neck. So all in all, it's been a good 24 hours. I helped save Randy, we...yeah...at the club, Kyrian came back, I did a good job performing, I've got some ruins to explore, and you're madly in love with me. Life is good. She grins up at him coyly, then calls over her shoulder to the others. I think I'll swim - it's good for ya!

[The Bushranger]

BR manages a small smile.
I'll never laugh at you, bestest friend. Only with you.

[randman22222]

Entering the kitchen with a ton of harpoons and knives, and other pointy objects, plus the crossbow in my hands, my eyes go wide at hearing De. My life was in danger when I was transformed?! No one told me!

[Tempest Fennac]

I'm sure it won't be that hard to figure ot (there will probably be an instruction booklet, and if anything goes really wrong, we can just use our bracelets to teleport back here).

[Raistlin1040]

Good. Raistlin replies, smiling warmly.

[Diva De]

De chuckles and shakes her head at Randy. No, I meant saving you from being me - hardly life-threatening. She nuzzles Raist's chin gently, sighing. And I'm pretty madly loving you myself, babe.

[randman22222]

Oh. Right. Anyway, here you guys go. I give a harpoon and a knife to anyone who's coming.

[The Bushranger]

BR turns away, sighing a little...

He refuses the harpoon and knife.
I'm armed well enough already, thanks.

[banjo1985]

Horatio takes a harpoon but refuses a knife.

"If something get's that close then I'm dead already."

He takes a cursory look at the miniature sub. It's equipped with an underwater grappling hook and a harpoon launcher, as well as a powerful spotlight on the bottom and front.

"Okay, I think I should be able to handle this...who's joining me?"

[randman22222]

I put any extra pointy objects up high, where no half-undead children can get to them.

This time I'm going to change. Swimming in jeans is a lot of work. I walk off to my room to change into swimming trunks and one of those tight swim shirt things, since I don't have a wetsuit. I come back to the airlock/sub bay, and wait for everyone who's coming to get ready.

[Raistlin1040]

Well that's even better. Raistlin smiles and puts an arm around De.

[Tempest Fennac]

I think I'm the only one who is. I'll need to use a Dimention Hop to get the sub through a small entrance when we get there. Using earpiece. Can everyone hear me? I wanted to check that these things work before we leave.

[Kyrian]

Kyrian, who'd come back from De's performance AND several parties afterwards in the wee early morning hours, is currently in the training room kicking ass and taking names. And likely turning off safety features so that his training is more dangerous...

Mike stirs and begins to opens his eyes.

[Diva De]

De puts a finger to her ear and nods. I read ya, Foxy. She turns to Raist and smiles apologetically. I love you, and I'm so sorry, but I've gotta go - they're sorta waiting on me. She kisses him sweetly. And I've still gotta change. I'll see you later, OK? She reluctantly pulls away and runs down the hall. Hey, Foxy, guys - don't leave me! I'm changing, then I'll be right there!

[randman22222]

((I wanted the earpiece to be telepathic ))

I hear you just fine. Let's wait for everyone first. I enter the airlock, and wait for everyone else who's swimming to enter.

[banjo1985]

"Reading you loud and clear fuzzface."

Horatio grins and climbs aboard the tiny sub.

"Guess they do work!"

[The Bushranger]

BR shakes his head.
I coulda changed you, remember?
He shrugs and heads for the airlock.
I'm here.

------

Erin smiles in her sleep.

[Raistlin1040]

Raist kisses her back, then nods and teleports to the studio.

[Kyrian]

Kyrian gets bored and decides to appear...at the airlock...just cause.
Um...hi all...


***

Mike gently kisses Erin's smile.

[Tempest Fennac]

That's excellent. If Horatio's okay with it, we'll meet you all outside the airlock.

[randman22222]

Okay, we're still waiting on De. Hello Kyrian. We're about to go check out some ruins I've found.

[Diva De]

De quickly changes into her one piece, a shimmering green number that perfectly matches her eyes. The neckline plunges down to just below her navel, and a silver clasp holds it closed between her breasts. She quickly braids her hair into a single, thick strand and slips on some water shoes. She grabs her ever handy pouch and ties it on around her wrist, then straps the dagger to her thigh and hefts the harpoon gun over her shoulder. All in all, she looks sort of like a Bond girl. She dashes back up the hall. I'm coming! OK, Tempest will be Foxy, BR will be Bushy, Horatio's Red - Randy and I need cool nicknames. It's only proper. As she finishes, she turns to corner to the airlock and steps in. Ready! She pauses when she sees Kyrian. Oh, hey! Wanna come with?

[banjo1985]

"Yup, ready when you are. And Randy could just be Randy...it's effective enough!"

The floor below the sub begins to move apart, exposing a water filled tunnel. When it's parted enough to let the sub do so, Horatio submerges and begins to pilot the craft carefully through the tunnel, coming out of a hatch on the outside of the base.

When there he waits for the swimmers.
