"What if we simply return the weapons to your employer?" Windrider asks. "More to the point, what if you're looking at the wrong crate?"

((sorry, finals and all, brain fried))
Justice got up silently following the others to the crates. Leaning against the doorway frame she watched as the guns fell out of the crate. "Well, that does pose a bit of a problem, doesn't it. Interesting little surprise" She didn't seem too worked up over the problem, but then, she didn't seem to get too worked up over anything much. "What you wanna do with them boss?" She sighed and looked at him, "Course if they are found I can always claim to have confiscated them and turn them over to whoever I need to."

" And we hope that works." Chaz replied to Justice. He turned to Windrider," Well of course I looked in the wrong crate. You think anyone we were supposed to find out we were smuggling Naruni guns past CS territory? Or maybe that's the whole point." He turned back to face Marty," Or maybe we were supposed to get caught with them. Maybe Wes was right about catman here being coalition. Kat, you know the prof, would he be behind something like this?"

Windrider lifts a massive dark hand to get Chaz's attention. "I do not think such accusations are warranted. Cats are always an independent race. If Marty is doing a master's bidding, he'll accept or deny the accusation as he deems fit to get the job done. If he's as innocent as you or I, then he'll deny your accusation, and we risk losing a useful team member." He says, in his long, patient, drawl. "We have the guns, and we have a spy. We also have a group of strangers. Though, misdirection is the name of this smuggling game." he says, looking at Wes, quietly. "As I have smuggled before, I know this."

Kat appears to think this over for a few minutes, before shaking her head at Chaz. "I don't believe he would try to hide this type of thing. Did you want to try to contact him to see if he knew anything about this?" (tag)

Wes looked at Windrider. " What, you think I'm Coalition?" He laughed. " That's rich."
Chaz shrugged. " Maybe once we get airborne again. Too easy for anyone listening in to track us down sitting here. We can stick with Justice's plan for now if we have any trouble." He glanced at Windrider, then Marty. " You are allowed to speak for yourself, so you better thank the big guy for stepping up for you."

"I never implied you were from the Coalition of States." Windrider says to Wes calmly. "Only that you might be a smuggler."

Marty stared a moment. Then shrugged.
"Prrofessorr pays Marrty well. Pays to move crates. Contents are not Marrty's concern."
Simple and to the point. He scratched at an ear. "Prrofessorr has own reasons."
Simple, obvious, to the point. He wondered why the concern. Guns were guns, even contraband guns. It just meant a bit more caution...

" I'm no smuggler, at least not before I signed on here." Wes shrugged.
Chaz shook his head. " The contents are your concern. And my concern and everyone else's concern if we run into the wrong people. Windrider, get us out of here, preferably a course that steers a wide berth around any CS. Everyone else give him a hand up in the cockpit, including you Marty. Since I'm the closest thing to a mechanic we have onboard, I'll check the engine room."
As he started to turn and lead the way, Wes stopped in his tracks as Chaz spoke again. " Not you, Wes. You did the cooking, so you get to clean up." wes grumbled, but heanded towards the common room.

Windrider shruged, sat upright, then made his way upstairs...
... only to find the place trurned upside down, and a very cranky monkey. <"This has been a bad day. I understand."> He says in Cree smoothly. <"Here, I found you a snack."> and he tosses the monkey a carrot.
Cleaning up the strewn papers and closing some cabinets, he strats powering up. "I'll need one of you on the RADAR and sensors at all the time. The other two, weapons consoles." He says, as the lights come to life.

Kat nods at Chaz "That sounds fine to me." She then tells Wes, "I can help you clean up if you'd like and then head up to the cockpit." She smiles quietly at him and waits for his response. (tag)

After a few minutes, Chaz and Wes had the galley straightened away and Justice, Marty and Windrider had La Mish lifted off. Once in the air and everyone except Chaz in the cockpit, there was a slight blip on the radar for just a second. After a moment, it happened again. Wes asked from his seat, " We got a shadow or just signal interferrance?"
It happened again.

"Well." Windrider says, "watch what it does as me move." With that, he does a wide, obvious turn, heading in 90 degrees to the blip.

As Windrider turns the ship, Kat keeps a close eye on the radar to see if the blip re-appears. (tag)

As Kat watched, the blip reappeared after a few moments, almost in the same spot as Windrider turned La Mish.
