Mizuki looked at the shapeshifter with an expression that was a combination of disbelief and thinly vieled annoyance.

[color=red]"No,"[/color] she replied, staring at the man. [color=red]"I don't. And somehow I don't think I want whatever it is you have."[/color]

Yet, the group somehow managed to leave the facility and reach the harbor without any catastrophic breakdowns in relations between the kitsune and Prometheus or Crash. Further still, upon learning that they would be travelling to London (a very long way away) by boat exclusively, Mizuki only caused enough damage to warrant one fire truck responder.

Of course, there was a very good reason why they had to travel by boat, which was that travel by sea was the only way to get out of the continent unnoticed to the outside world. If an airliner suddenly appeared out of thin air, lots of questions would be raised. Within minutes of leaving the harbor, the vessel whose passenger list was nobody but the Athalia trio passed through the dimensional gate without incident and found itself in the outside world. The trio now had a long, multi-day voyage ahead of them, which Mizuki was none too fond of and relegated herself almost immediately to brooding on deck.

Meanwhile, in the middle of the [i]other[/i] multi-day voyage...

Vikki was having a difficult time piloting the fishing trawler. While it was better outfitted than a non-Oasarian trawler, it was still a trawler and heaving the heavy ship around was no easy task. As Vikki threw the wheel back and forth, she mentally cursed the ship's captain for both being nowhere to be found and for not being able to do what she was even if he had been. She had been watching the action off the port side of the boat over her shoulder, making quick adjustments to the ship's heading and speed (nearly stopped) to try to make Rain's job as easy as possible.

As she watched the action unfold, she locked the ship into a heading once Rain connected with Ryuu's hands, and ran out to the roof of the ship. She drew her two Persian Long Luger pistols, preparing to fire at the snake's crystal, when the beast suddenly stopped right in front of the aqua woman. [color=silver]"Everyone cease fire!"[/color] she yelled, in case anyone on the deck below was still planning on shooting at the snake. While she couldn't be sure, it seemed that whatever went on had worked and the snake was no longer malicious, at least for now. She held her pistols vertically, in a tenuous position ready to fire at a moment's notice. For now, though, the only audible sound was the waves.
