~ Ben| Lyttleon ~

My gaze flickered from the boy, Vincenzo, back to Lily. "Yes. Well ... probably not, if you stuck with me." A look of distaste flashed across her features, and I sighed dramatically. "But I guess if you feel that way, you can just stay here."

Vincenzo shuffled nervously behind me, and I turned back to him. "Come on, you." He jumped slightly, startled, and I rolled my eyes. "I'll take you to the captain. Isn't that what you wanted?"
He hesitated, then nodded, glancing down for a moment. "Okay," he murmured quietly.

Lily coughed pointedly again. "I want to come too." She said, insistence evident in her voice. It wasn't really a tone of voice that I felt like arguing with anytime soon, so I nodded, shrugging lightly. What was the worst that could come of it? My gaze shifted back to the boy, and I fixed him with a stern expression.

"Just make sure you stick with me, both of you. There are others on this ship who-"

That was when I felt a thump to the back of my legs, and crumpled to the floor.

Kayin

I paused by the door to the captain's quarters, frowning slightly. Ben was in there, I recognized his voice easily enough. I was debating whether or not I would stay and listen in or continue on my way and let Ben do what he wished with the girls. The latter would have won over- the girls really weren't my concern, after all- when I heard another voice. Male, and definitely nobody from the crew.

That managed to grab my curiousity. Abi chirped and fell backwards off my shoulder, landing with a thump on the floor. She got up and shook her head, tipping to the side. I cringed at the noise and nudged her with the side of my foot before shoving the door open-- which drove it right into one of the girls' backs.

She fell forward with a yelp, head knocking into the back of Ben's leg. He collapsed with a loud thud, right at the feet of a man I failed to recognize.

My gun was out in a second, though I didn't aim it at anybody just yet. No need to frighten the girls or scare the boy into darting. I glanced down at Ben and bit my lip to keep from smirking. I'm not quite sure what I found amusing, but there was definitely something laughable about all of this.

Vincenzo|The Lyttleton

Ok, I got what I wanted, but I was suprised by the black haired girls actions, she wanted to work too? Or did she just see it as an excuse to run?

I then realized I was still calling her the 'black haired girl.' I supposed she'd feel more comfortable if I addressed her by her name. " I leaned over when we was walking towards the door and whispered "So, what's your name?" as Ben was shrugging.
She quickly whispered "Lily." When I turned back I saw Ben staring at me, again. I suppose I can get used to this...
BANG! There was a sudden noise and I noticed two things straight away. Ben was crumpled on the floor and Kayin, I think that was what I heard the ship mates called her, in the doorway, with a gun.

I stood straight and silent the only sound was Ben's muffled pain. I slowly spoke worried and said with a straight face. "Is this a.....Munity?" Kayin laughed out loud, I had no idea why, so waited for an explanation for this sudden mess.
