Joe is, despite the '...wut?' factor of Kevin, still impressed Kevin managed to sneak on in the first place. Okay, plans... Killing life support was out, they were still planetside... Oh, and innocent kid and Angel would want to be kept alive, that too.

  Suggesting random kid ask the terrorist types for autographs as a distraction?... Nah, he's not that mean and jaded.  Which is why he's not a bounty hunter in the professional career sense.

  "So, person I just met.  Know you called the cops, but how do you call the cops yet still think it's staged?"

The kidnappers begin flying crazypants style to try shaking the cops off their tail. They also get to work searching Angel in case she has any tools on her that could help her escape. Another kidnapper seems to be preparing some odd stasis pod thing.

"Dude!" Kevin says, "Kevin's the name by the way, hah.  Totally more dramatic this way, hahah!  Besides.  If I didn't like, call the cops or something, they'd like, be totally guaranteed to be real terrorists, hah!  Wooaah!"

Kevin grabs hold of the nearest solid-looking thing to keep from falling over during wild chase scene!

  Joe refrains from facepalming, managing to avoid the need to grab hold of things because if the bad guys can do delicate searches and handle heavy equipment, then Joe can totally stand up straight unassisted.  "Joe.  Unfortunately, this happens to be the real thing.  Though at least you have an excuse for why you came on, you didn't know.  Me, I think I'm just an idiot.  I suppose 'ever handle a gun before' would be a stupid question?"

  Speaking of guns, Joe pokes his around the bottom corner of a door for a guncam's eye view to the next room that has less odds of getting noticed than peeking his head around the corner.

One of the kidnappers says, "Having a hostage really puts power in our hands. But THIS hostage? My my my... all the political figures will perk up. Heck, even the SA will want her unharmed."

Another says, "Unharmed, sure. But nobody said anything about un-humiliated. She's awfully pretty. I wouldn't mind seeing this lady without her wraps. And then, we could embarrass her by showing her nude form to the masses." He goes to kiss her unconscious self on the lips. "Heh. Kissed an angel."

"Stop fooling around and do your job. We can discuss humiliation after we get the deals done."

"Dude!  Joe?  Seriously?  Radical!  Hahahah!" Kevin says, "I bet your last name is like, 'Cool,' right?  And you're all like, calm and stuff and all, 'Dude this is totally real, hah!' and all 'Dude, like, you use a gun?  Hah!'  Does like, experience with shoot-em-up games count?  Hahahah!"

  Joe considers shooting Mr. Kisser in the groin as first course of action, but that probably isn't the smartest tactics in the world.  "...I'm just going to assume 'no' on if you can bring youself to shoot a terrorist in cold blood then, even on stun."

  Let's see... Ah, teargass indoors.  Fun times. He pulls his hood mask on, and says "Hide, or something." He doesn't mention his real last name is MUCH more melodramatic, as he tosses ye old teargass into the next room.

Inside, Angel is doing jumping jacks and spanking her butt at the kidnappers followed by raspberries. She is totally unconscious, so the teargass means NOTHING to her! BWAHAHAHAHA!

The kidnappers are surprised and cough and choke and go unconscious. So does the pilot. The ship begins taking a nose dive!

Kevin like, hides or something.

"Wo-hoah!" he chuckles, "Dude!  You like, totally took out the guy driving, hahah!  We're like, totally going to like, die or something, hahahahah!"

Nosedive?  Meaning downward slope?  Radical!  Kevin holds his breath, throws his skateboard down, and skates into the teargassed room!  He then like, pushes the "open windows" button to clear the air or something.

  Skateboarding down a nosediving air ride?  Okay, maybe Kevin actually does have Xtreeeme! Cred after all.  "Thanks Kevin, it'd be awesome if you could make sure Angel didn't hit the floor while I try to make sure we don't hit a building or something."

  Joe has a less dignified 'ow, ow, ow, slide, ow' thumping trip to the cockpit.  Trying to pull the ship out of it's dive from the floor may not be classy, but hopefully it works.

It's not like the duo doesn't have time. It can take a surprising amount of time to hit bottom when you are at 1k feet. Not that they are that high anymore, of course. Kevin's BMX kid move actually worked and Joe manages to pull the craft up from nosedive.

"Wo-hoah!" Kevin cheers, "Radical move there, dude!  Hahah!"

As requested, he gets to work securing Angel to not be bruised in the crazy airobatics, and himself, too, of course.

"I can't like, help the pretty bunny and the terrorists too, dude.  Oh well.  They're probably like, stuntmen or something, hahah."

  Joe says "Just help the Bunny and yourself Kevin."  Urge to do barrel roll after Kevin and Angel secured, high.  Though he manages to avoid this temptation.  "Also, could you call the police again? That'd be great."  sure, they were hesitant to shoot because Kevin was on board.  but  Murphy tends to make the authorities more willing to shoot you down when you don't deserve to be.

  He'll get to work on auto-piloting their way to a landing zone once that's cleared up.

The police contact the ship's com system and soon help guide the group to a landing spot. Soon after landing, the uh-oh squad board and help secure everyone. Angel, Kevin and Joe are all checked by paramedics. Angel is soon awake thanks to said paramedics. Reporters are at the scene as the police question Kevin and Joe about what happened. And once Angel wakes, they question her too.

If this encounter with the cops doesn't convince Kevin this was a REAL kidnapping, the fact the media is here and will be reporting the event as a kidnapping might. Maybe.

"Hi, Mom, hahah!" Kevin says, waving at the news camera, "Dude, like, we were like, totally on the monorail and stuff, right?  Then like, these dudes were all, 'Dude!  We're like, totally badguys kidnapping this bunny, hahah!'..."

He gives his own version of the story.  Which doesn't include any mention of what the terrorists said or did when he couldn't see them conscious.  Which was the entire time after they left the monorail.

  Joe had considered grappling hooking away into the night/early afternoon out the airlock while the ship made it's auto-pilot trip back to safety for maximum MELODRAMA.  But, he didn't want to leave Kevin and Unconscious Angel alone on the ship with a bunch of terrorists, even if they had been dealt with.  "I guess I couldn't have done it without Kevin?"  It is so wonderfully vague.  It could mean something like 'I couldn't have had Kyle open the windows for me without Kevin'.

  At a convenient (as in, at all possible to pull it off) moment, he'd slip Angel a note to point out Mr 'lol let's embarrass and take advantage of her'.

  Also, yay face concealing masks and generic first names.  Shhh, we're trying to pretend Joe doesn't have a custom made 'hey, only he has that' mask.  some days, that mysterious lack of reputation is hard to justify.  Much easier to say he's got a lack of credibility despite a good resume.

After the police sort things out, Angel goes to Kev and Joe. "So I have you two to thank. Then please let me thank you with an invitation to join me for dinner."

She took the note, glanced, and acted like she didn't even read it. Smile and all.

"Dude, like, totally!" Kevin answers, "Call me what you want, but don't like, call me late for dinner, hahah!"

In other words, he accepts the invitation.

  Let's see...  Vanish back into partial anonymity, or dinner with an admittedly attractive Pirate leader who could still probably dropkick him so hard he explodes so hard he explodes last week despite her recent problems... That makes no sense.  You need to PUNCH someone to make them explode last week, duh.  Also, free food.  "Thank you Miss Bard, I think that would be nice.  We wouldn't happen to have to follow a dress code would we?"

  What? This storm trooper armor I brought to dinner has a bowtie on it! you should let me in!

Angel lived on the streets before she joined elitism, so the dressing up thing being required is still something she is getting used to. She frowns in thought. "Come as you are. Pizza is probably the best thing for this occasion anyway."

Especially considering, you know, surfer dude goat over here. "Since you guys were on the monorail, I have to assume your vehicles aren't nearby. So come with me."

A limo pulls up. "Ah. There's my limo now."

"Dress code?" Kevin asks, clueless, "Woah!  Pizza, hahah!  Radica...wo-hooah!  Dude!  Like, a limo, hahah!  Dude!  That's like, here for you?  Woah."

He gets in as asked and enjoys playing with whatever limo buttons he can get his hands on.

  "Pizza makes almost everything better."  Surfer Dude... Joe's player liked Goku's original Surfer dude dub voice best in the earlier DBZ episodes.  Joe follows after, Mask go off back into neck compartment once he's in the ride with them.  And then he gets to witness power windows, lights on and off, radio station scramble and more thanks to Kevin.  "I will be very upset if you find the ejector seat button." Whooo! Understatment!

  Alas, Joe's player cant find a Clip of 'Fast And Furious's Ejector seat scene.

Angel sits with the two in the back. She only drives the limo when she wants to. Which is not the case most days. "Kevin, Joe, taking you for pizza is such a small token. What would you two like from me as a thank-you?" she's considering giving Joe a high-paying job, due to A) being qualified and B) the fact he gave her that little bit of extra info on would-be humiliation.

"Ah... hahah,  Ah..." Kevin considers, "I dunno, ah...  Pizza's good, hahah."

 'Hey, remember that time I helped rescue you from terrorists?' as super resume actually hadn't crossed Joe's mind yet.  Cause he can be silly that way.  "I suppose you could let me pick the toppings?  Unless Bacon disagreed with you.  Maybe we'll figure something out, maybe you'll have some suggestions while we eat.  Forethought wasnt much of a factor for either of us in this situation."

  Sure, Kevin was convinced it was faked.  But what's Joe's excuse if he's doing dangerous things without planning on taking advantage of it?  Pesky conscience.  Why can't you leave on demand?
