None know of this, other than my personal pool of acquaintances, as well as the... The association, you work for. he said with a nod as he thought of all whom might know, but coming up with nothing else relevant he let the man continue. Only nodding at how he took part of the money and picture. I believe in your work Mr.Shadow. he told him as he stood, And if you are a man of honor you will keep it that way even when you are with my daughter. Do you understand? She is my only daughter, I want her back, safe and unharmed. That is all that truly matters to me. he held a hand out for him to shake, God speed Mr. Shadow. Miss Liza had just finished up and was walking back to the Lord's study with the warm scones, creaking open the door but seeing as the young fellow was about to leave she simply held the door open, And take some to go will you? They are nice and hot. she commented, holding the tray of the orange creations in front of her. The air ship was just that, a large boat with black solar sails billowing with wind, if it hadn't been for the thrusters on the back of the boat keeping it in one place they would have been blown all around and likely crash into the sea below. But either way the ship Highlander, as was written on the side of the boat, was a sturdy thing. And as for the crew went it was also a hardy bunch, armed from head to toe, some even with amputated arms or legs replaced with mechanical parts. They were a rough bunch compared to their captain. Captain Flint was a refined looking man, like a true gentleman, standing tall and noble as he commanded the crew. But he was not afraid to get his hands dirty which was why he was the only one who was ballsy enough to pull off the great kidnapping that he did. Kidnapping the famous Lord's daughter was something of an ingenious plan, well that's what Flint thought. It would be talked about for years. And down in the brig was his prize... Athena Gray had counted the rivets in the ceiling of her cage at least twenty times now and frankly she was getting bored. She tried to find a way to keep herself occupied but it seemed helpless. There simply was nothing interesting enough, she thought she could feel her brain turning to mush behind her eyes. There was a familiar squeaking noise approaching the door to her cage, food, at a timely manner, was given to her and it was the only human contact she was being given it seemed. As the plate was slid through the rectangular opening and placed on a small wooden table for her Athena shot up quickly. Wait! Is it Frank? she asked and no her avail got a hesitant look from her warden. Frank was a large burly man with one calf replaced by a metal autonomic part, and it squeaked every time he took a step. The bearded man let the plate clang down on the table and he stood, crossing his arms in front of his chest, trying to look intimidating, How did you know my name? he asked in a deep voice. Just because I am stuck behind these bars doesn't mean that I cannot hear you know. she said standing up to the huge man and placing her hands on her hips, Now, would you let me take a look at that leg of yours the squeaking is driving me to total madness. she said with a small smile. The huge man onle looked at her with suspicion and didn't make a move. Come along Frank, what can I do? I'm behind bars. All I want to do is fix that damn loose bolt of yours. she told him as she advanced on the bars and took the plate off the small table and pushed it against the bars for him to set his foot upon. Fine, make it quick. he said as he glanced at the door, Cap'n can't see me talkin' to you. he placed the heavy leg on the edge of the table between the bars and Athena got to work. She quickly found the lose bolt and tightened it using her skirt to help her grasp it, getting it greasy in the process, but she didn't care. She adjusted several other things while she was down there to make walking easier for him and before long she was finished. There, she said with a satisfied smile, Test it out. she said and he did. Taking a couple steps with no squeaking and even a bounce to his step that he did not have before. Better isn't it? The hardened criminal looked at her with a sparkle in his eye and nodded his head before leaving... Once again Athena was alone with her own thoughts to keep her company.
