However, he used the holographic images on the palms of his arms to get a good idea of what was going on, as lifesigns detected on the ship were starting to drop, no doubt part of it being because of Rama's gravity bomb stunt. He could hear the Knight also complaining how it was specifically ordered to only kill when necessary. Arms couldn't help but sigh while pinching the tip of his muzzle in annoyance. Then he could hear sounds...he wasn't expecting to hear from the outside, as all kind of weapons were being fired out of the Typhon. He looked out the window to see the damage done to its exterior shell. On the one hand, it's something of a blessing in disguise that someone not only unsealed [i]his[/i] "room of wonders" that Arron ordered him to seal, but also activated weapons Arms helped to develop and upgrade back when Edward was still captain. To top it off, in order to get those things working at once, that someone must have brought in an AI chip to insert into the computer mainframe. Which means, at the very least, there was someone in their new crew that will prove very useful for him. On the other hand, their captain was a petty sort of child, and will likely not be happy someone ruined the ship's asthetic. "[i][color=f26522]The Typhon would be one of the most feared ships outside the Imperial Armada if it wasn't for that damn shell in the way.[/color][/i]" Arms thought. --------- As more and more of his crew is eiher killed or knocked out, The captain of the Merchant ship armed himself with the best weapon in his merchandise, an Advanced and upgraded plasma rifle, and moved towards the door. He didn't know what he could do alone, but there was no way in hell he was going to just sit there and let them come to him. That in mind, he walked into the hallway, and looked around, a kill-on-sight mentality seen in his clearly fear-stricken eyes. ------------------------------ [b][u][i]The Typhon- Bridge[/i][/u][/b] It was around the time he could feel the ship shake from the additional fire Victor provided, the lasers and missiles that blew a hole in the ship's exterior hull, that Arron thought maybe, just maybe, putting them into a stressful situation where they'd be looking for anything and everything to fight back against the oncoming forces that were heading their way may have been, in fact, a bit of a bad idea. His clever smirk immediately turned to a frankly goofy look of shock as the Victor's activation of the other weaponry of the ship, plus his pilot's spinning of the ship to attack a particularly larger fighter, ramming the Typhon into it, caused the ship to shake hard enough to knock him off his chair and land right on his face. Staying there on the floor as Victor explained what was going on to the bridge. One might have thought (or hoped), with how motionless the captain was, that he was knocked out, or possibly dead, (...It could happen...) but it seems he was listening to what Victor was saying as he rose up one of his arms, pointing towards the ceiling with his face still planted on the floor almost outright cartoonishly, and began to speak. "[color=0054a6][b][i]...And those buccaneers drown their sins in rum, the devil himself would have to call them scum.[/i] ...First off, welcome to the crew, happy to have an AI on board, we have talked about getting one but by Poseidon are they expensive. ...As your captain, here's your first four directives. One, your captain designation is "Link". Two, as the Mainframe AI you have control over the ship's mites, so be sure to help Scrap by setting the repair parameters she adds to all the mites on the ship. Three, Target only the fighters for now but not all of them, save some for Hook and Scots, and when I give the command, rain hellfire on that merchant ship. Four, give you friend Jar a message for me: [i]"Thanks for the fix and the AI, greatly appreciate it, but know there's a weapon in that room you must absolutely not touch yet: it should be a giant console with a blue print shown on the monitor, can't miss it. One more thing, for future reference and with all due respect: DON'T GO BLOWING HOLES IN MY HULL, YOU 'SHOLE!!!"[/i] ...Be sure that last part is capitalized, and ends with 3 exclamation points. Also, Pain, happy with how excited you seem to be, but we don't have the money for ramming materials yet, and until we do, this ship is not a bull. So please, for the love of Uranus' severed balls in the ocean of stars, don't kill us![/b][/color]" Arron said to Sara, using the fingers of his extended arm to count his directives as he said it while also making handsigns to further express what he's saying to her. It should be noted that the first sentence was in a different tone from the rest of what he said, as if he was...singing. Afterwards, he pulled his face off the floor and got up, dusting himself off, and getting back on his seat, waiting for Arms to give a signal to haul them out of the merchant ship with prisoners in tow. ----- It wouldn't take Victor long to notice what he was talking about, as there was one particular set of computers and a giant monitor set deep inside the room on the opposite end of it to the door, practically positioned in a way that noted its importance. Just as Arron said, the monitor was displaying a blueprint for something on it. It looked like some kind of giant cannon barrel set just below the Bridge of the Typhon, with some kind of power core at its center, separate from the ones in the engine room, and looking more like some kind of giant crystal at its center. On top of the blue prints was what seemed to be the name of this weapon: [i]Codename: Dead Man's Chest[/i]. However, the analysis of the weapon seems to indicate that it's still incomplete, and therefore inoperable currently.
