La Mish streaked low over the forest, trailing a plume of black smoke as the engines struggled to keep running under Windrider's control, but it was to no avail. The Northern Gun hovertransport passed over a small town as it began it's final descent. at the last moment, Wes managed to snatch the frantic Thinks I'm A Treeand held the monkey tightly as the bow of the craft dug into the earth. Trees uprooted and dirt and rocks flew back over the windshield as they dredged a half mile long furrow before coming to a rest. as they stopped, everything went black save the light from outside, which was very little consering how deep the cockpit was dug in.
Wes released the monkey, which protested and bounded for windrider's shoulder. He looked around at the others," Softest crah landing I've ever been in. " He tested a tightness in his shoulder from the pull of the restraints. " Is everyone okay?"

"I'm not." Windrider says, he looked OK, but disappointed.
Thinks I'm a Tree was going ape over this, not really pleased to be in a situation like this.
"<Quiet>" Windrider demanded of Thinks, and the monkey fell silent, staisified to check Windrider's hair for fleas instead.

Kat gets up and stretches to see if she is injured anywhere. Not feeling anything major, she heads back to where the others are and asks "Everyone ok?"

Windrider taps at a few controls. "We should consider moving from the vehicle. If we're caught with the CS hunting down our illegal goods, we'll be dead, too." He says. "Why couldn't the thugs have done their own dirty work?" he asks, getting out of the seat.

Justice, put a hand to her head, having bumped her head during the whole ordeal and being knocked unconscious. She sighed, "Sorry, guess I won't make suggestions in the future. My apologies.' She stood and moved out of the way, wobbling a bit.

[La Mish]
" Who says they were really Coalition?" Wes looked at Windrider." Anyone can get there hands on a SAMAS these days. And their tactics were sloppy if they were CS. A real SAM pilot should have disabled us alot quicker." He looked at the others with an ' I said too much' look on his face.
[Trial]
Trial had heard the roar of the low flying vessel as it passed overhead. Since his arrival, most of the townsfolk had kept there distance, and very few had even spoke to him, but there was a fear in the air among them he'd picked up on since he'd first made his stop over. There was a stirring amongst the residents that someone should go see if anyone had survived, but no one stepped forward to do so.

Trial didn't have much respect for anyone in town, but he figured if he went to explore the crash he might have a shot at getting some scavanged goodies. So he travels out to the crash site to see what is there.

Windrider looks over at Wes, reading the face, then, wordlessly heads out to the cargo hold. "Let's see what we can use to our advantage." He says. As he moves, Thinks hops onto his shoulder.
When he gets to the hold, Windrider starts looking around the gear, making sure something's useable, and nothing's making a mess or about a-splode anywheres.

Kat heads to the engine room calling for Chaz. "Chaz? You all right back here?"

The cargo hold is a mess, but several of the crates are still intact. Wes turned one over after picking a couple of books off of it. " So what do you intend to do with these Naruni guns when we find them? Who ever owns them is liable to come looking for them."
The response to Kat came with a groan, followed by movement withing the darkened engine room. " I'm okay, but I guess we lost." He crawled over a tipped cabinet, coming into view. " I don't suppose you see my glasses anywheres?" he asked as he looked up. His left eye seemed okay, but the right was gone, repleaced with a glistening black sphere that looked like polished onyx, like the eye of a shark. ( Kat needs to make a roll vs HF of 9)
No one in town even seemed to noticed as Trial passed through the town limits. It didn't take him long to find the gouged out trail the craft had left in the soft earth. At the end of the trenched out furrow sat the damaged hull of the hover transport.

Trial approaches the crash with his Plasma cannon held at the ready in case any survivors decide to get froggy.

Save vs HF: 13+1=14
Kat shakes her head as she helps Chaz up. "Sorry, no. My first concern was making sure you weren't dead. I'll help you look for them now, if you want." Kat has absolutely no reaction to Chaz's eyes and starts looking around for his sunglasses.

" That's okay, I've got a couple spare pairs. " Chaz replied as he turned on the compartment lights and looked at the mess. Catching his reflection, he quickly shut the light off and turned so Kat could only see the left side of his face. " Uh, why don't you go see to the others, I'll be along soon."
[Trial]
As he approached, Trial soon realized he wasn't the only one checking into damaged craft. On the other side of the crash strip, a pair of men were approaching and hadn't noticed him.

Windrider picks up a gun, and shows Thinks a clip, then points around for the monkey to find some. "Well, if they're going to take us down, in accusation for something we have no direct responsibility, I see no reason to not recouperate value lost in the damage of this craft they have incurred." He explains, absently regarding the weapon. "With Mr. Chaz's permission, of course."

Kat simply nods at Chaz and replies "All right. I'll let everyone else know that you'll be joining us in a moment." Seeing that Chaz seemed uncomfortable with the subject of his eyes, she doesn't any questions and simply leaves the engine room to re-join the others. On her way, she grabs her rifle, just in case there is a need for it.
