Jess does a mental tally of the events in the bar so far, and, thinking thoughts along the same lines as Ghost of Alien, orders a Blue Synthale and goes to sit in the corner with the company of only her guns, to wait until people start acting in a more civilised manner.
------------------
SilverDragon goes and apologises to Jess and Ghost of Alien.
"It's just a downward spiral. Sorry, but I had to do something to retaliate."
"Mind if I sit here," SilverDragon asks Jess.

ESPilot smirks as the Garland picks of Wratho and deposits him in another galaxy. he says to Silver "You could've at least done it in a slightly more subtle manner. Personally, I'd have just broken out of the asteroid and incinerated him." He sips his near-empty mug of Saalian Brandy, and as it's finished, orders a mug of S'klad, a type of North-tip Strandless beer. He drinks it quietly, as he grips his set-to-kill Ion Rifle due to his intuition telling him a Zacha officer will be entering the bar shortly. He waits for about five minutes, still slowly sipping his half full mug of beer, when a Zacha officer walks in with one of ESPilot's guards smoldering in his wake. ESPilot turns around quick as a flash, fires his rifle, and jumps down behind a wooden table to avoid possible static feedback as the officer falls to the ground in a heap, sparks still jumping around across his body from the blast. The sparks collect into one big spark that suddenly explodes with tiny tiny Ion sparks everwhere, bouncing harmlessly off the wooden table ESPilot's behind, while he watches Silver get hit in the finger by one making the finger numb. "Sorry about your finger. I can't exactly control the feedback from my rifle." He says "Maybe next time I'll turn the power settings down just a bit." He then walks into the port, sees the Zachit Arada, and goes into his ship. He comes back out armed with a gargantuan Neutron rifle, aims it at the Zachit Arada, fires at full power, and runs like hell back to the bar, the explosion rocking the whole thing. He gets back up and says "Well, I'm off to do more bounty huntin'. It's my job y'know." He finishes the mug of S'klad, which is actually a very good drink, and walks out to his ship. He hypers out, not caring about the smoldering chunks of metal and spilled fuel tanks all over the dock from the explosion.

After regenerating his finger, SilverDragon goes out to get his giant torpedo crossbow, with the firepower to level almost anything.
Without a use for it, he continues to talk to Jess, Jade, Rima and Alien quietly, telling them stories about his past.

A small gopher walks in, squeaks for a bit, and then appears to get angry. He runs around in cirles for a few moments, before people realize he has a collar. An inscription says "SK". "But," says one person, "Isn't that... the Starkiller?"
"Yes."
All eyes turn towards the new arrival. "What the hell are you all looking at?" he says. People turn back to what they were doing as Starkiller picks up his gopher.
------------------ "Phweep" - Former President Bush
SilverDragon laughes as he sees Starkiller come in. "Didn't know you could get a Zodiac mongrel. But hey, loads of these self proclaimed 'masters' are pretty much dogs anyway."
Rima gets herself a drink and puts the bar on auto while she drinks it.She eyes the newcomer and wonders how much damage he'll cause.
------------------ I'm not dead yet.In fact I feel pretty good!" I cut off your arm!""It's only a flesh wound!" "Bless this holy hand grenade..."
Annoyed at some others, AP goes and sits with Silver, Jess, Jade, Rima and Alien and tells a story of a great battle in dogovor...
------------------ Is the answer to this question 'no'? Chaos to the enemies of the Azdgari
Suddenly, a ship, recognizable only as the Arada known as Furious 'n' Fiery, jumps into Hrekka (where north tip station is), followed by the S.S. Honor Blade, ESPilot's ship. ESPilot's CW moves as fast as the Arada, catching up quickly on afterburners. ESPilot takes the weapons control, selects his Pursuit Missiles and fires away like crazy, the two launchers firing rapidly, knocking the Furious 'n' Fiery's shields down at a fast rate. Then the Furious 'n' Fiery turns around and fires its Phased Disruption Beam Turret at full, knocking the S.S. Honor Blade back. ESPilot hits the dispy. rocket button, and a rocket fires at the Furious 'n' Fiery, hitting it straight in the cockpit, sending down to the planet below North Tip Station, flames spurting from it everywhere as it blows up. ESPilot lands, goes to the bar and heads over to the mission computer. He checks off the mission labled "Zidagar: Elimination" with the description "Destroy ship Furious 'n' Fiery, charged with illegally handling prototype Zidagar Military Technology." He sits down at the bar, ordering another glass of S'klad, and listening to Silver tell stories from his past as the strange man with a pet gopher enter the bar.

As Rima listens to the storys Rima's comm unit beeps.SilverHawk has seen a certain Igadzra has come in.It's name is Lizard's Death.She excuse herself and makws sure the bar is still on auto and then silently slips into SilverHawk.She hails the ship and says "remember me?"Lizard's Death immediately opens fire.Rima backs off a bit and launches fighters and the shoots SAD modules.Her Zidgar ECM kept the SAE from hitting her.She went arount Lizard and kept shooting him barely out running the guns. When she ran out of modules they were both in armor.She turns to dipsy rockets and hits him hard.Both the fighters die.Finally she shot him straight on and smiled as the ship exploded.She docked and went back to listen to more stories.
ESPilot watches the Lizard's Death explode, and mentally checks off Lizard's Death from his list of lesser rivals to destroy mercilessly. He explains "I had a run-in with that certain Igadzra, in the Mark system I believe. He saw me, the enemy of all Igadzra and opened fire with his SAD's. They wavered due to my ECM and Zidagar ECM, missing me completely, while I pounded him with Pursuit missiles and dispy rockets, adding on to that my 4 phase turrets. Our ships nearly collided, circling and circling, both firing rockets, my ship, the S.S. Honor Blade firing missiles as well, and both of hammering on with phase fire until the flying metal bannana was nearly disabled, and then just hypered away, leaving me open to Igadrza ships in my weakened ship. I hauled myself back to Outpost Terapin, the closest not hostile station, and restocked on rockets and missiles." He finishes another mug of S'klad, and listens to Silver continue to tell stories.
Graunadulater stirs. he had been half asleep but heard everything. he says to ESpilot,"your half right. i do like to blow stuff up but ill blow any thing, be it renegade or trader."he also shows them his pistol which was custom made by a Igadzra and a Emalghion. "Im looking for a guy named Grafman of the "Aradinca".anyone seen him."
SilverDragon looked over at Grunadulator. "I've heard of Grafman. But I'd be careful of him. He's got quite a powerful fleet of Crescent Warships. If you have any particular reason to take him down, I'd be happy to go fetch the Z.S.S Topaz and help you if you'll split whatever money you're getting with me."
Without listening for an answer SilverDragon goes off to get the Z.S.S Topaz, which he left in Hizdriar.
the zss topaz?his ship is the aradinca.im getting 1m credits by the way
OOC: I went off to fetch MY Zidara. I don't want to use my Crescent Fighter, which I think someone destroyed anyway (down the drain goes a 5 million credit fighter).
SilverDragon enters the bar again. "Hey. Look, I've had a change of mind. I'll do it for 250,000 credits."
Jess is pretty drunk by now, and doesn't have a clue what SilverDragon is talking about, but watches quietly, waiting to see what happens. She is slightly distracted by a man holding what appears to be a gopher, wondering idly if she's going mad.
"Heh. Grafman. He's only a slimey little Miranu coward. I beat him extremely badly a long while ago in a UE Fighter, but he managed to run from the battle with his tail between his legs." ESPilot sips his drink saying "After that he probly went and hired his stupid fleet of Crescent Warships, himself in the most powerful. I once challenged his fleet, and nearly destroyed it but another CW warped in and he took time to jump away and rebuild his fleet." He finishes his drink and says "I'd be happy to help destroy him with no pay whatsoever. The feeling of humiliating him yet another time, and this time for good, is enough for me." He continues "If you want, I could get a gang of ace Strand pilots who'd be willing, since they don't particularly like Grafman either. They're all different Strand with ships belonging to their own species, but they've managed to get along pretty well dispite the war." He orders another mug of beer as he says "But I don't have to call them up if you don't want me to." With that he walks out to the port to see that his ship gets in top condition.
Suddenly, Grafman himself walks into the bar, holding his head high and with a group of guards behind him. He walks up to Rima.
"I'll have a Burmezician Blue Summer, with a slice 7cm in diameter of orange from the Darlyian oranges that grow on Mira, with a sweetener of....." he is cut off when he sees around him a group of people who dislike him intensely.
"Hmm yeah you could say we dislike you." With that, suddenly 4 husky renegades bust into the bar armed with phase rifles set to kill and the shoot Grafmans guards, they're fingers hitting the triggers rapidly at each guard. ESPilot smiles and says "i guess you need you guards better trained too, just like mine. Although I think yours need more training to catch up my guards." He dimisses the guards and points his charged Ion rifle at Grafman. "One move and I pump you full of Ions and my guards will come in and blast holes big enough for me to reach through in ya until you look like swiss cheese." With that he nods to Grunadulater, signaling for him to say whatever he's going to say.

Figuring from the looks of hatred on everyones faces that this is the guy they've been talking about, she decides that if there's going to be some kind of massacre, she's going to join in. She wonders if SilverDragon will let her play with his crossbow...
