Ethan took a step back as Florence launched himself into the car. He turned to the woman with the cable. He nodded and stepped to the edge, handing her the motor. She nodded to afirm she had a good grip on it, and he let go. Ethan was then approached by the old fellow again, who needed his help lowering the car. He nodded again. If he did much more of this his head would pop off. Ethan crossed to the brake and took it in both hands. He had driven a lot of things, but a rickety old trolley was new to him. He squeezed the lever and inched it off a little bit. The trolley began to drop, very slowly.
Ethan got impatient and moved it further, and the trolley dropped down, scaring the hell out of everyone. Ethan yanked the lever back and they smashed to a halt. "Sorry everyone, it's my first time" he said, grinning. He moved it to a middle position and they lowered right on level with the next floor. He stopped the car. "This stop, infirmary and hopefully not certain death!"

Ethan looked up at the old man, who had shouted about helping him. Ethan looked at Florence, the thrill-seeker. Ethan nodded, "You get the others, I'll fix this bloody thing." Ethan crossed the trolley to the man int he hood, and nudged him aside. He planted both his feet, grabbed the old motor, and yanked. The metal gave a hideous wrenching sound, and then tore off. Ethan grinned as the Trolley wobbled, now free of its main anchoring. Ethan looked around, nervous now.
He could hear the Grit now, rumbling towards the wall, all kinds of hideous sounds. He gritted his teeth and bellowed up. "WE GOTTA GO GUYS!" He saw the others running towards the trolley. The two men inside the trolley looked incredibly nervous. He frowned. "Alright, if they don't get here soon, we gotta go. I know we shouldn't leave them, but if we wait, we all die." He looked out over the city. "And maybe there's still somebody alive down there who can fix this."

Honesty time, I have not listened to any music because I am lazy as hell. Also, apparently I'm not going out of town.
Ethan choked when the old man gripped his arm. When he saw the rage and sadness in the fellow's eyes, he knew he wouldn't be able to keep the wrench, the man looked too...emotional. Suddenly, there was a series of deafening booms and lightning arced across the sky and into the city. Ethan was shocked when it all shot towards them. He thought for sure it would hit him and he would fry, he probably deserved it. But the old man turned to stone. Ethan gaped at the statue, perfect down to the smallest detail. He had to look away, the emotion on the man's face was devastating.
Ethan snatched the pink gem in front of the old man. He would fix this, if he could. Another old man shouted about getting inside the wall. Ethan nodded firmly, and then yanked his hand. Which was stuck. He sighed and reached inside his coat, fingering a sigil. He imagined the look of elation on the old man's face when he fixed everything. He appeared next to the older man on the trolley. He looked at the man, and grinned wickedly. "This should be interesting, eh? I hope these folks are capable as you old timer."

Haha, I was super busy for a few days and finally got a chance to get online to see... Wow. Things have escalated quickly! Will write up a post for Kat today.

BOY! I love AM. I was gonna pick Arabella for Ethan. I'll find something else that suits him better I think.
I'm going away for a short 1-2 day trip, if I don't put a post up today, I will when i get back on tuesday or wednesday.
As Ethan rose back to his feet from the jolt, he rubbed his stomach tenderly. "That's the third bloody time this week..." he grumbled, watching the other works. He spotted Florence retrieving the wrench from the muck and he swore. Things were about to get tricky. Ethan shuffled about and waited until Dazz was a good distance away, talking to some scrawny kid with a calculator. He heard the thunder and the TV's go out, but he paid it no heed. He bent down, pretending to tie his boot, while he reached into his jacket and touched one of the sigils that sat in the pocket. He imagined the sea, far off to he south (or so he believed), rushing against the shore. A tremendous bang echoed from over by the lifts.
The workers all turned towards the sound. The old bearded fellow let the wrench fall to his side, setting it down carefully as he started to approach. Ethan grinned slyly. He touched another sigil, lower, this time imagining punching his boss in the face. He appeared right by the wrench, and he scooped it up, glancing around to make sure nobody saw. He pretended to be cleaning it off for a few seconds just in case somebody still did, but once he was sure, he slipped it into his coat. Then, he rushed towards the lifts like everyone else, as if to appear just as concerned. Hopefully he could avoid getting tazed again.

Sorry for the short post, I'm crazy busy this week, so I just sent Emma to bed.
Emma wasn't all bothered by the captain's speech, even if it seemed the others were. This was what she had signed up for, and damned if a little mystery was gonna stop her enjoying herself. On the other hand, she was unbearably tired all of a sudden, and she did not feel in the mood to do much other than make up her room and fall asleep. The taller woman, Elvira, asked about exploring the ship to Emma and the other two women. The tattooed woman, Rathe? excused herself and followed the first bearded man out of the room. Emma waved her hand, "Sorry, I'm absolutely exhausted, not sure why. Maybe you can tell me what you found in the morning or something?"
The woman nodded, and Emma smiled and left the room. She crossed the ship back to her room. She didn't even bother to change her clothes, she simply fell onto the bed. She watched the ceiling fan rotate for about 20 seconds, and then she was out cold.
