Re: At the Exposition Seats
In reply to Grimsby Baskerville (msg # 842):
Dash scans the exposition field as the zeppelin approaches from the sea. He thinks back to his experiences in Cuba, the usefulness of American Gatling guns there, and tries to think how the Vril would put such to best use for their nefarious purposes. After a few moments a horrible idea occurs to him which he feels is right in line with the Vril activities so far.
Dash hurries through the zeppelin until he get to the Captains office, which he'd searched before. He quickly searches for the clever object he'd seen earlier, then, upon finding it, he grabbed paper and pencil and scribbled a quick note containing his idea of where the Vril gun might be.
Unscrewing the pointed, weighted cap from the metal cylinder he'd found, Dash shoved the note into the hollow container, then replaced the cap. Again he searched the captain's desk until he found a heavy metal whistle he knew must be there. Grabbing up the whistle, Dash rushed to the bridge.
Stepping into the glass-walled control room at the front of the zeppelins gondola, Dash went straight to Cap'n Remi - the big Algerian standing tall at the wheel.
"Cap'n, can you see any of our people down on the ground?" Dash asked, peering down through the large glass windows, "I need to drop a message. So, if you could divert course just a little, to fly over somebody? Grimsby - Bellgrove - even the big cat, Connor - any one of them would be perfect. Maybe not Miss Mercy. If she gets this message, she might run of and act on it by herself. Could be dangerous, that."
