Before Abbygail decided on a course of action, as to what the best way to handle the marine situation was, everything spiraled out of control.  Which, was in its own way kind of beautiful like watching something, covered in confetti and feathers, explode.  One moment it was just a surprised marine, trying to figure out what was going on, and the next, there was panic, and a marine with broken bones, looking up at their swordswoman's curled up fist.  Which, was probably better than looking up at the woman's blade, but it was very doubtful than the man saw it that way or even knew what was going on. 

Her first impulse was too pull the marine out of harm's way and put him somewhere safe, tied up, with a sock in his mouth, but she pushed that aside.  She wasn't with the marines any more.  She was a pirate, on a personal war against the world government and all who stood besides it.  So she forced herself to relax and allow Red-Eyes to hold on to their captive for the moment.

"Calm down, Rainer"  Abbygail muttered a long slow, aggravated sigh.  "We're not in much trouble yet."  She raised her hands up so he could see her use them to make calming gestures.

"Kyy" Abigail paused a moment to acknowledge their resident spear master coming on board.  "Morning.  Glad You're able to join us now, just as things are getting good."

"See, Rainer."  Abbygail said in response to Musashi's point.  "We'll only end up in level three of Impel Down, on a worst case scenario.  So there's no point in panicking.  We just have to play this smart."  She paused and blinked.  "Or rough."  She rubbed her chin.  "Kind of hard to figure out what's going on at the moment."

Frowning, she turned her attention to the marine, the horrified marine who was still, STILL, in the process of trying to figure out what exactly was going on.  He was obviously a grunt for a reason, no more sharper than a thumbtack with the sharp metal bit thrown off.  She doubted he was going to catch on any time soon, judging by the way his eyes were dilating oddly.  He was probably concussed.

"Hey."  She said calmly enough, and then when the man didn't respond to her, his eyes still on the fist hovering before his face.  "Hey!"  She snapped, clapping her hands together to make as much noise as possible.  The man, thinking he'd some how managed to get punched several more times before coming to understand the sound wasn't coming from his bones breaking, blinked and turned his attention to the purple haired woman. 

"Huh?"

"What's going on her?"  She asked, crossing her arms in front of her chest, and doing her best not to glare to hard at the guy.  She wasn't afraid of hurting his feelings, but the man was so scared and out of it, he was lucky to piss himself, and at that point she was certain REd-Eyes would kill him, and she wouldn't blame her.  If a guy got piss on her she'd do the exact same thing.  "Why is this ship being towed by the marines?"  

The man licked his lips and darted quick glances between Abbygail and his captor.  "I.  I.  I."

"Not yes."  Abbygail muttered, pinching the bridge of her nose.  "The person in charge.  Why're they having this ship."

He swallowed and shook his head.  "Uh.  We were flagged down by the guy, Mark, and he said that he needed a tow to the nearest island."

"And where is Mark?"

"Is on the ship, having a chat with Captain Kard.  I don't know what.  He swore it was important though and innocent lives were at stake"


[@Crimson Lion]
"A tow?"  Abbygail muttered.  "Maybe something happened to the boat while we were all out like lights.?"
She shook her head and turned her attention back to RAiner.  "Hey.  We're missing Boomer.  Do you mind going down to the deck and getting her back up here while Musashi and myself figure out what to do?"


[@Noodles]
"Hey there!"  A marine, baby faced and fresh shaved, stopped on his way to the latrine.  The sight of the young woman, dressed in a uniform a few sizes too big caught his attention like a fish who suddenly realized there was a hook in its size.  "Did we get more soldiers without anyone telling me, again?"
