"No prob!" Ren said. He seemed happy again.
As much as Sina didn't want to get separated from Ren. She summoned up her courage and decided that she had to let go of things sometimes. "Renilius, I'll miss you. Take care and promise me that you'll be here when we come back."
"Don't worry! Its not as if I'm going to die." Ren replied. Sina quickly gave him a tight hug and let go. She went to Lillith. "Let's go."

Dante shakes Sergei. "Hello... thank you for aiding us to drop us off to Dali..." He turns to greet Sina. "So... you are... Sina, yes? I take it you are Ren's friend... my name is Dante Shadesang. You have already met Lilith who I know that she can help improve your spells and magic; the man wielding a unique gun over there is Kerion; the person here is Oliver; and the woman over there is, from modern terms, my fiancé, Eva. Apparently, "lover" is "too old" or something... Anyhow, I have to be honest that your friend Ren is rather... interesting. Not in a negative way of course. And... he has gone through some things as you already heard; personally, I am glad you made him feel a tad better so he can redeem himself of what he has done as I feel he is a good-hearted person... just not at the right mindset, focus, and experience which still needs time to grow. Well, we should be best ready to depart." He goes to Eva and Iole. "All right, well, I am ready to depart when you are, Eva... on a curious note, what is it that you are planning.... to do... in Dali.... Eva?" He takes notice of Eva still putting her hands on her hips staring at Iole and somehow getting an odd headache from her... and vice versa. But seemed more important was the aura he felt around them... especially from Iole... understandable but troubling dark aura. "... Eva, are you all right? And Iole, is something the matter...?" You know, this vaguely reminds me of... something... *ponders*He ignores his "thoughts" and not say further and wait idle as he obviously feels that is disturbing something... personal maybe.

::Eva just mentally sighed before giving a smile::
Fair enough Iole but try not to disassemble him before I come back
::She looked over at Dante with a grin::
"Everything's fine. Right Iole?"
::Eva still has a glint in her eyes as she looked over at Iole again::

::Iole's smile somehow manages to look angry. She tries to look defiant, but she can't really hide the heat rising in her face. The backs of her ears are already bright red::
Just peachy. Have a safe flight. Hey Captain, since the Hijrah needs repairs, would you mind staying with us for awhile? With these guys leaving, we have a few extra rooms. Come on, are you sure you don't want to stick around for a little while, for old time's sake?

(OOC - I take it Iole is trying not to look defiant or is that what she is actually doing?)
".. peachy..? That is a rather interesting emotion. Well, all right...." He pauses for a moment before continuing. "... well, thank you Iole. You take care of yourself Iole; make sure you look out for each other, yes?"
He turns to Eva. "All right, let us all depart then." He held onto Eva's hand as they followed each other and the group to Sergei's ship...

Sergei leads the fleeing group away from the Hijrah's dock, taking through a rather industrial section of the docks, littered with large machinery, to dock two. There, tied to the wharf, is a brilliant vessel that seems to resonate like shining silver, more grand then the Hijrah or perhaps any vessel they have gazed upon before.
"Pretty, ain't she?" Remarks Sergei, looking up at the vessel. "Pity she ain't mine!" He bellows out with a deep laugh, slaps Dante on the back and guides them to another vessel tied up beside the grandiose one.
There, docked up beside the silver vessel is a small rusty, decrepit, barely looks as if she can fly, patchwork metal airship. The Hijrah seems like a luxury cruise liner compared, and the silver vessel like that of some vessel of the grandest of royalty beside her.
"Ah!" Sergei lets out, hands resting on his belt. "That's my pretty, the Rabbit's Claw, isn't she a beaut!"
A piece of her hull breaks off, a cloud of rust belting the group. Sergei scratches his head. "Huh... that shouldn't of happened... Oh well! Didn't need that part anyway! Now she'll go faster!" He laughs and walks toward her gangway. "Come, everyone on who's coming!"

::Eva chuckled a little nervously before thinking to herself::
Why do I get the feeling I'd be a bit safer if I just flew myself.
::She looked at the ship and then at the part that fell off::
Well assuming he's still alive I suppose the ship has got to be reliable.....I hope....there's too many people here for me to try and save if something was to happen -_-;;

::As Lillith looks at the less than upstanding vessel, it seems that Melanie is copying her wary expression with her beady eyes::
It's..... lovely. Come on then, no use waiting around here.
::She takes a carefully planted step onto the gangplank to make sure it's secure. She never really did get used to airships. Seeing her fears are unsubstantial she starts to make her way up. However the raven on her shoulder squawks and flaps its wings angrily before taking flight, landing on the other airship to stare down at Lillith defiantly. The sorceress glares at her stubborn familiar::
Fine then. Be that way.
::She motions to the others and they board the ship::

Sina runs onto the ship. She waves good-bye at the others down by the ship.

Dante coughs a bit from Sergei's back pat and straighten his tie. As he pondered about Sergei's ship not being his, he looks into the ship's interior. "How... interesting." ... enough said... >.>

-Back with Vincent-
"I'd rather stay with my ship, this isn't exactly the best of ports." Vincent states. "If something should happen, it be best I was here." His head turns towards where the others had left for Sergei's ship. "Is it bad that knowing the reaction they must be having upon seeing that rust-bucket Sergei calls an airship brings about a certain giddiness inside me?" He chuckles lightly to himself.
-With Sergei-
The ship's insides look much like how its outside appears, except with this difference, you can actually see through the welds on the plates that make up its floor and with each step one makes, it feels as if you will fall through. The cargo bay, which is nearly the entire ship, is stacked with crates that are either oozing with some strange substance are speckled with an odd yellow dust. The whole place smells of rust and something else that isn't quite identifiable.
The bridge of the ship has a spot for a co-pilot but that spot is occupied by piles of junk, papers, and old food containers.
Sergei charges up the engines, which make a deafening rattle throughout the entire ship, coupled with the sound of metal vibrating against metal. "Ok, next stop Dali!" Sergei's voice blares over a very staticy intercom. "Hold on back there and if you find a seat-belt, or a seat, let me know! Been curious if I have one or not!" The announcement ends with Sergei laughing in that deep bellowing laugh of his.
It isn't long before the ship is moving, surprisingly, pulling slowly from the dock.
((Air or straight to Dali?))

Sina waves goodbye to the others. Ren waves as well.

::As the ship takes to the sky, Lillith searches desperately for something before it's too late. In an accident of providence, she finds what she was looking for. A rusty bucket in the back corner of the cabin. She uses her air magic to call it over to her seconds before she vomits into it::
I'm okay... I'm okay.
::Though she looks like she's going to repeat this::
::Back on the ground, Iole and the others watch them take off before she turns back to Vincent::
Iole: Wow you weren't kidding. What a hunk of junk. Anyway, sorry to hear you can't come and visit for awhile. But it was still good seeing you. ::She tugs on his collar to pull him close enough so that she can kiss his cheek:: Let me know if you need anything. ::She looks up at Nahla and waves to her from the porthole:: Bye Nahla! Take care! Bye Miguel, bye Tresk. Tell Nivzad and Rafee I said hi.
(OOC: I think it would be best to go straight to Dali. There have been too many travel threads already. Unless you wanted to play with Sergei's character a little more).

((No need, Sergei is an old character actually. Eva might remember, that was the guy who Vincent and crew went to save in Deling during the first Loci storyline here Oh but what did actually happened to him!? The world may never know.)) "Yes, aaa take care Iole and whatever you do, don't somehow drag any police here while you're investigating this killer." Vincent smiles, either sarcastically or sincerely is hard to tell. "So, I best be getting back to overseeing the repairs. Oh and don't forget to drag the kid back or I'll put him to work."

::Iole yanks Oliver back by the tail::
You heard the him Ollie. Captain's busy. Wave goodbye. We'll see you guys later. Come on guys, let's go see what Adrian has up his sleeve. He said something about making us into performing arteests by nightfall.
::She leads the way back to the inn with Oliver, Kenny, and Ren in tow::
