Despite the fact that the sensors in engineering were reading a flux in gravity in this area, there were no signs of any anomalies. The shops were open, the midday crowds were bustling as usual. A little girl ran through the crowd, glancing worriedly around as if she was trying to locate someone. Pausing in front of a certain cafe, her eyes lit up in recognition, although she looked like she was hesitant to enter.

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

Epello meadered the corridors of the deck, continuously scanning the area for any signs of what might have given off the peculiar readings. Furrowing her eyebrows, she stopped, turning her head to seemingly glance about. Carrying on her way, she nearly ran into the little girl, sensing her before her clumsiness gave her the chance to. “Oh! My bad,” She smiled down at her.

COO

“It’s okay miss. Grandma always tells me that I should be more careful of where I run off to.” The little girl looked up at Epello with wide eyes, “Wait… are you a Starfleet officer?”

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

“And right she is about that,” Epello nodded, offering what she could of a small smile. “Yes, I am. One of the operations officers, if you’ve heard of us.”

Lt. Epello
COO

“My mom says that you guys are veeeeerry important.” The girl drew out her the word in an attempt to make it bsound more important, and pouted when she finished. “Mom is also a very important person too, but she didn’t have time to play with me today because of that. Luckily I can always visit grandma!”

Me Snuggles (GM)

“We are just as significant as every civillian on this ship, every civillian just like you.” She smiled. “Say, what is your name?” Epello inquired, allowing her attention to briefly drift in search of whether or not there was anyone around that might be this girl’s grandmother. “Is she around? Looking for you, perhaps?”

Lt. Epello
COO

The little girl nodded and pointed at the cafe, “Grandma Evie is probably working now, so I am on my way to say hello.” Her face turned a little downcast, “I let her know that I was coming, but I got a little lost on my way. For some reason a lot of the shops have different signs today? Is there some sort of event happening?”

Mr Snuggles (GM)

“Different signs? What do you mean?” She asked, furrowing her eyebrows in a bit of confusion as to what the girl meant. “Could you show me one of these signs?”

Lt. Epello
COO

The girl pointed at the sign of the store next to the cafe, “Well, that sign is supposed to say Mr. Mugo’s masterpieces. Mom says that the Grandma almost got arrested trying to keep Mr. Mugo from pestering her customers into getting pictures of themselves.”

Mr Snuggles (GM)

Epello, wondering what the girl meant by ‘different,’ turned her attention to see what the sign said. “What company does your grandmother own?”

Lt. Epello
COO

OOC: With Trinity gone someone should jump in here.

Adam

Before the girl could reply, a bright light shone through the commercial area. Lt. Epello was gone, and in her place was what looked to be a young blond woman in strange medieval looking armour that had strange glowing lines running over certain parts. While she looked human, she had this otherworldly feel about her, and the soft green light that shone from her pupils indicated that she did not share the same base DNA as many of the people on the deck. Looking down at the girl in front of her, she spoke in an almost emotionless tone, “Where am I little one?”

The girl took a small step back. “Mommy says that I am not supposed to talk to strangers, especially if they appear in bright bursts of light.”

The woman nodded. “Wise words, however, I am a stranger to these parts, and do not wish to have to take the information by force.” She glanced towards the crowd of onlookers gathering nearby. “As that would could do more harm than good, and I do not wish to hurt innocents if I do not have to.”

Meanwhile, inside of the coffee shop they were standing outside of, one of the patrons shouted into the kitchen, “Hey Evie, there’s a little party going on outside your shop!”

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

“If it is that Dublin Donuts guy trying to put a cart in front of my shop I swear I am going to sick Aedan Teller on him,” Evie said throwing the hand towel over her shoulder. As she walked out of the shop she stopped looking at the commotion. “Well this is new,” she said cocking her head to the side. Sighing she walked towards the little girl and the woman who had to be doing some live form of role play on the outpost. OMAP’s entertainment division here was in full swing. This had to be something Aedan was either test launching or promoting. Either way the little girl appeared to be a bit timid.

“Can I help you,” Evie said to the woman moving next to the little girl.

Evie McGarrett

Bump

The little girl looked up at Evie with widening eyes before she shot like a tiny missile into her waist, “Grandma! You’re here!”

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

“Well Ciara has been gone a while but not that long,” she said in a confused tone but patted the child’s back reassuringly. Whatever was happening Evie knew this child at least needed someone to help her get where she needed to be. “It is good to meet you too. It has been a while. Why don’t you come with me and we can find your mommy huh,” Evie said happily breaking the hug but taking the little girl’s hand in hers. “We can have some cake or cookies and milk while we wait.”

The little girl nodded vigourously, hand clenching Evie’s tightly.

“Okay Lancelot,” Evie said looking at the knight in shining armor that was still watching the interaction. “Go on and hock whatever advertisement you were paid for just don’t do it here. And before you start to grumble, Aedan is my nephew and I have zero issues breaking down his boardroom door and making him boot you from the promenade. Would you like anything before you go? Coffee, tea,” she asked politely.

Evie “Yes I am a grandma and I knew one of my kids would pull through even if they won’t admit the had one” McGarrett

The woman slightly tilted her head in a confused manner. “While your offer of what I can only assume to be refreshments is appreciated, I must decline. I do ask however if you are the one who speaks for those located here?”

Mr Snuggles (GM)

“Yes, my kingdom stretches as far as the eye can see. Tell me, good knight, what bringeth thou to my lands, Aedan I am going to kill you with this stunt” she added silently to her self. This had to be a stunt by her nephew to drum up business for whatever venture he was planning. Normally she would try to support his but today she just had too much to do.

Evie.

The woman’s armour shifted around a bit before she spoke again, “You have designated yourself as the primary diplomatic liaison for these people. Therefore, according to the codex, I must inform you that any act of aggression towards me shall be met with an equal or greater force.” The armour on the top of her wrist shifted and a green blade sprang to life out of it. “Is this understandable?”

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

“Oh my heavens,” Evie grumbled rolling her eyes. The tone of her voice indicated she had far more saucier words but the small child next to her had prevented them.

“Enough with the shenanigans,” Evie pulled the towel from her shoulder. The little girl next to her looked terrified. Evie would show the little girl this was all a stunt first and then deal with the knuckleheaded Knight before her.

“Put that thing down before you kill someone,” she snapped Waving the towel at the blade.

The towel impacted the blade… before being cleanly sliced through with no resistance. Despite this the woman just raised an eyebrow. “It seems counterintuitive to ask one to stand down while attempting what seems to be an assault yourself. Is this some sort of strange greeting? Perhaps a show of submission?”

Mr. Snuggles (GM)

OOC: Hope I’m ok to join in here?

IC: After her run in with the Captain, Akane decided that a stiff drink was in order so made her way to what looked like a bar. As she approached she sensed a tension in the air as she stumbled across a curious scene. Having already offended her CO, she didn’t want to step in where she wasn’t wanted but did notice there was a small child present as well. She casually strolled towards the group, making sure to keep a wide berth. As she was behind the knight she caught Evie’s eye and raised an eyebrow, silently mouthing ‘do you need help?’

Lt Sakai (CNS)

OCC: Sure :) ~ Kate

IC “I’m British love. We are nothing but polite,” Evie said to the counselor with a smile. Turning back to the night her tone changed, however. “Look you spicy little mongoose. I don’t know what you think is going on here but you will stop this nonsense now,” she said sharply. “Now hand over that overly sharp bread slicer before you get hurt and take off that helmet. Aedan is going here of this and when he does I am gonna throw you and him in the bloody garret.”

As she waited for the night to comply she turned to the CNS. “Are you new here love? If so welcome to the Outpost. Would you like a nice cup of coffee?”
