Re: Osiris - Grand Yacht Party
Geoff looked to the captain with a sudden look of realization upon his face, realizing the captain didn't know anything of what had happened. Geoff would have to explain it to him. Unfortunately, being drunk as he was, that would be a bit of a roundabout endeavor. But it was too late to stop him because he was off.
"Oh, Cap'n! It was a helluva a day! It's like this, right? Me an' Charlie left like ya told us to, right? Took that car o' Kyoko's and left. That's a nice car, by the way, Cap'n, we should invest in gettin' one. It outran that cop that chased after me and Charlie really well. Took those corners and such like a pro. Anyway, we got away from that there cop I mentioned by climbin' up a buildin' and such. Ya shoulda seen Charlie. She's a trooper, she is. Didn't pause or falter or nothin'. Went right ahead and found a way out o' that alley we were in and such. She was a good choice ta go with me.", he said with a nod.
He continued onward with his story from there. "But, right, from there we went walkin' ta where Lei was s'posed ta be last. We got there and there weren't nobody there! So Charlie looked at that there tablet thing fer directions, but she saw some report that said that Wei Li and Rhaef were killed! Yeah, in an accident or some such stuff! She broke down right there and I felt real bad, Cap'n. I mean, Wei Li is a good gal and she's easy on the eyes and such and Rhaef...well, ya know, he's Rhaef. But, in any case, I still wanted ta find Lei, right? But then these two fellas came by talkin' 'bout some girl they found on the fire escape and that they finished off and we had seen a scrap of Lei's dress on the fire escape. So I done put two and two together and, damn, I felt bad. I thought I had lost everythin'. It was bad, Cap'n.Real bad..."
He shook his head and looked slightly disturbed from the memory of how he had felt when he had thought Lei was dead, but went on with his story. "So, 'cause we didn't know what else ta do, we came to this here party ta find ya and tell ya 'bout the unfortunate news. The two guards outside wouldn't let us in though. I guess we ain't exactly fancy party material, ya know? But, eh, screw the core world party. Ain't no fun....normally, anyway. This one seems better than others. But, anyway, we couldn't get in so we went ta find somewhere ta wait. Luckily, we found a liqour truck! Ain't nothin' better than liqour when ya think everybody close ta ya is dead, if'n ya ask me. So we drank...a lot....a hell of a lot. But then all the crashin' and shootin' and such starte over here and I saw Lei sneakin' aboard so I came rushin'. Ya know, to the rescue and such. Uh...and well, ya know what happened from there..."
