Danielle sat with them at the staff room, and didn't follow the conversation until weapons were mentioned.
"Weapons? We had some weapons in the academy, but I never understood what use are they of when I can just incinerate my enemies..."
"A spellcaster!" Nova said surprised.
"Yes... I went to the Arcane Academy..."
"Well, that sure will come useful" Matthew added.
"Ok. Now I really want to take some sleep. I had a hard night, and I want to be ready for when we get there"
"Don't go. We still have much to discuss."
They kept on talking, assigning all kinds of roles and discussing ways of actions. But Danielle didn't care about that. And even if she did, she didn't listen...

Nova saw that Danielle wasn't really with it....she doubted whether she would really be up to the task at hand. "Hey..." She nudged her elbow...Danielle jerked awake. "Please just have a simple pistol then, just aim and shoot. If you're really that fussed I'll mantain it for you, just DON'T loose it ok, that's expensive shot there.." She tried to smile as Danielle yawned.. "God, I could do with a drink right now.." The sleepy eyed girl groaned. "I second that!" Nova smirked...longing for her flask...

Matthew, forgetting to tell the rest of them how long the ride will take, returned to the room.
Opening the door, he noticed Nova had spread a large display of guns on the table. Just what we need... Matthew by now was starting to wonder who this Nova woman actually was.
Soon they were continuing where they had left off, discussing who did what and so on.

Shiraz stared at Nova stand if front of the table, giving away weapons to everyone.
"Guns... you have got to be kidding me... Is that the best you got?" she said with a disappointed tone in her voice. It was true, she hated the Light Side, but they had taught her well and avoiding bullets when she knew magic was a piece of lie. "Give me a sword," she finally decided, "the best one you got."
"So I take it you've trained before?" Nova asked interested.
"Oh I've trained alright... THEY've looked to it..." she mumbled, loud enough for the other woman to hear.

Drake took a pistol and examined it.
This thing is nice... Damian said I know...Drake replied
He tried spinning it, like in those old cowboy movies, but dropped it and it fired when it hit the floor.
"Oops...Sorry bout that, we won't do it again...." he said, incredibly embarassed

Nova looked inscensed. "You do realise these are the best of the best guns?!?!" She raged at the split personality... He looked sheepish. "Shiraz, these are only the basics I want everybody to have; I've got bows and crossbows and swords and daggers and basically any weapon you could think of in my cabin..."

OOC: Jenny-Tundra: Does she own an RPG? Alexandra-SD: I don't think I have understood your hint...
Danielle was back in the conversation, which rolled to weapons. It seemed everybody was making such a big fuss around those pieces of metal, as if they could save their lives in a time of need... One of them even wanted a sword! Even with the weapon knowledge they got in the Academy she knew that swords are not much more than a ceremonial or a powerful artifact.
"Say, what do you got in that flask of yours?"
Novaris looked at Danielle, surprised of the sudden question.
"Anyway Nova" Shiraz started "Show me your swords. I want to get used to it."

OOC: Does who own an RPG???
Nova grinned at Shiraz' enthusiasm. "Right, heeere;" She plonked a large sheathed sword upon the table. "You've got your bog standard sword, well balanced, strong and fast...but if you're lookijng for something a little lighter then THIS" She brough a slightly slimmer, smaller sword out. "THIS, is probably the one you're going to want..."

OOC: at TD – read my character's profile. She was brought up in the Light Side quarters, they've pushed her to train all her life but she eventually ran away.
"Where did you ever get this...?" Shiraz exclaimed in amazement as she lay her eyes on the sword Nova pulled out. It was as light as a feather, its blade was thin yet sharper than any of the others. She picked it up and performed a few basic fighting moves, to try it out. "This sword... only the elite Light SiDers have it... It's light so it allows them to move around more swiftly and circle their foe before finishing him off... How...?"
There was a slight look of surprise on the woman's face. How come she knows the Light SiDe's combat tactics...?

Nova's smile at Shiraz' excitement vanished. "Now, I don't think that's any of your business do you?" She said; monotonously, but with a slightly threatening hint. "Either way, you are more than welcome to use it as long as you clean it daily, keep it sheathed and keep it safe, ok?" She handed Shiraz the sword.

Woah... Damian thought What? Those swords look awesome.. Dude, guns own swords But they're so cool So? Just lemme get control for a second Whatever...
Damian walked over to the woman handing out weapons and asked for a sword as well, a large one.

Nova looked at Damian...she scrutinized him for a moment, as if she was trying to see who he was...she snapped out of it. "You know the larger the sword, the less agile you'll be..." She warned. "But if you're sure, THIS one should be a beauty." She plonked a huge sword into his arms, for a moment he staggered underneath the weight.

Once Damian had gotten used to its weight, he quickly took a liking to it, and admired it's 'elegance' despite it being so large. He swung it around himself a bit, as the other's flinched, thinking he would drop it again.
I think I'm in love.... Pff... i still dont get what's the big deal with swords... Drake responded
"Shut up..." Damian said out loud. Everyone stared at him. "...That was... the other... ima go sit down..."

Nova cringed when Damian kept dropping the sword, but she could see he was getting used to it, he could become a really good swordsman if only he looked as if he knew where he was going to put it next, as if there was a little voice inside of him telling him to go the other way. "Practise with that ok? If you hesitate then you'll be dead before you can finish the swing..."

After everyone settled down and got everything they wanted, everyone went to sleep in their cramped bunks. It wasn't a comfortable place, but it was the promise of adventure that kept everyone up at night.
During the night, when some people finally got to sleep, the boat shook violently as it seemed to be pulled by the waves in one direction. After a horrid few minutes of dizzying rocking, the passengers heard a crash, and got out of their shipwrecked boat. They seemed to be on some sort of Island...
