Chapter 2

Blut, Metall, und Stein

'Where am I?'

'What am I doing here?'

'Why can't I move?'

'Why does my head hurt?'

The young man questioned himself inside his head, not wanting to open his eyes, 'What will I see? Well, no point in asking myself if I don't know...' He slowly opened his brown eyes and looked up to see the face of a young woman. He blinked a couple of times in confusion then looked down to see the fact that his face had landed into her cleavage. The words, "Oh shit!" repeated themselves over and over in his head as he tried to move, but couldn't. The old man looked at the two, a grin on his face as he slowly walked a couple of feet to the side, knowing this wouldn't end well. The woman moved her hand to the back of her head with a cringe on her face.

"What happened?" She said softly to herself, "Where am I?" She then opened her eyes, reveling that they were emerald green, and looked around seeing all the engineers looking at her. The woman lifted an eyebrow at one of the engineers who was pointing at something on her. When she looked down to see the young man's face in between her breasts, she quickly kicked him across the room and yelled out, "Blitz!' A bolt of lightning then came from above the man, striking him on the right hand.

After a couple of seconds of spasms, between him being electrocuted and getting a concussion, the only thing he could say was, "I and electricity no mix good..." He then fell to the ground, still having slight spasms.

The woman looked to all the engineers staring at her and the only thing she could think of saying was, "Umm ... oops?" She then began to chuckle, but as no one else laughed, she realized it wasn't very funny. They all just stared at her like as if she was some kind of freak, "What!? Why are you all staring at me like I'm crazy!?" She yelled at them, wanting to know what was so odd about her.

The old man looked to her and said, "Well, I don't know about you, but if I appeared out of nowhere, usually people would look at me strangely..." He then smirked at her, then looked to the young man and said, "I assume you would like some medical attention..."

The young man blinked at the old man and said, "Since when did cowboys have the ability to not sound like idiots?"

The older one glared at him and said, "Hey, if I was drunker that wouldn't be a concern of yours now would it?"

"Oh, and what do you want me to do about that?" He said raising an eyebrow at him, "Let me guess, you're going to say, 'Fix it!' or, 'Give me all your alcohol' Right?"

"Actually..." The old man started out, "I was just going to ask you where the closest saloon is, but that's good too..."

The younger one slowly rose to his feet and said, "Oh, well, you just go that way..." He then pointed down the corridor and continued to say, "You see, when you get to a wall, you run straight into it, now here is the important part, you need to go head first and as fast as you can go or else it won't work, you got that?"

"Gotcha, thanks for the help kid..." the old man said as he began to walk off down the corridor.

"I was being sarcastic you moron!" Yelled the younger one, "You think I know my way around here? I just got here like you! What makes you think I know anything!?"

The old man smirked and said, "Well I saw you there with your face in her bosoms and some time ago, I saw the same thing, now the person told me to do something, and I thought he was crazy, but later I found out if I had done what he had said, I would have been rich! So I swore to myself that I would never make the same mistake again. I'll tell you more about it if you get me some alcohol..."

"Look old man..." The young one started out, "I don't care for your story, but I would like to know, where the hell I am!" He then glared at one of the engineers and said, "Could you please tell me where we are, because I am losing my patience!"

"Y-you're on the Nirvana..." She said, very nervously and not knowing what to expect.

"Thank you; now tell me, what is the Nirvana?" He said in a much calmer voice.

"It's a colonization ship..." She was a little less nervous, but still didn't know what to expect from the young man.

"Colonization? But all of earth is ... We're in outer space aren't we?" The engineer nodded to his question, but didn't say anything because the young man then yelled out, "Damn it! Okay, now I can't be in the future because time dose not flow! So logically, you must be aliens!" He then nodded to his own comment even thought he had no logical evidence to back it up.

The red haired woman looked to him and said, "Okay, now please explain Mister, 'time does not flow' how I am here, because I have never seen anyone dressed in clothes made of that material, and I have traveled to a lot of places before so you can't possibly tell me that I'm from the same time as you!"

The young man looked to her and said, "My name is Leahtt MacGregor not, 'Mr. Timedoesnotflow'! And you could be from a different planet then me! Huh? Ever think of that!?"

The drunkard then blurted out, "I'm Solin Zenith from Texas! Texas is like a planet right?"

"Okay, there goes my argument..." Said Leahtt, now feeling like an idiot, he then looked over to the young woman and said, "So who the hell are you?"

The woman rolled her eyes and said, "Well, don't you cut to the chase, I am Nido Melyog, but here is an even more important question, who are these people?" Nido then pointed to all the engineers who were still staring at them.

Leahtt looked at Nido and said, "Nido!? What kind of name is that? Isn't that Odin backwards? Man, your parents must have had been really drunk to think of that name!"

"Blitz!" Yelled Nido, as a bolt of lightning came down and struck Leahtt once more.

After a while of spasms, Leahtt then mumbled. "I hate mages...." He then blinked and asked Nido, "Wait, how could you be a mage? Mages don't exist! They are fictional!"

Nido sighed and said, "You have to be the biggest idiot ever, all fiction was based off some truths..."

Leahtt blinked and said, "Wow, that was really deep, and true, and I don't care..."

"Ahem..." Came a cough from behind them, as they all turned around they saw a woman with long black hair and brown eyes in a green and white guard's uniform holding a gun that had two blades at the end, also making it look like a melee weapon.

Leahtt looked to the others and said, "Did you see her sneaking up on us? Cause I sure as hell didn't!"

Solin looked to Leahtt and said, "I'm too drunk to talk! What makes you think I could see her coming?"

Leahtt blinked at him and said, "What!? Wait, but ... GAH!"

Nido looked to Leahtt and said, "I didn't see her, maybe she was using an 'Unsichtbarkeit' spell..."

"Or maybe..." Leahtt said, "She's just a ninja..."

"Ahem..." She coughed again to get their attention and said coldly, "I suggest you follow me if you intend to stay on this ship..."

Leahtt looked to her and said, "Well aren't you just full of cheer and joy..."

The woman glared at him and he jumped back an inch, he didn't think she would take it so personally. The woman then began to walk off down the corridor, followed by the three. Parfet then sighed and said, "Paiway sure has become a lot colder over the years, I miss when she was just a nurse..."

The engineer that Parfet was talking to before then looked to her and said, "Yeah, but it was her decision to become a guard, so we can't really force her to become a nurse again..."

One of the other engineers then smirked and said, "Well we could, but it just wouldn't be very nice!" Some of the engineers then chuckled a little at the joke.

Parfet then quickly said, "Okay, back to work everybody!"

They all quickly went back to their work stations and began working like as if nothing had happened.

To be continued...

Well, that takes care of Chapter 2...

I think I might have rushed the ending, but what ever...

What do you think?

Anyway, over all, I think it was pretty good...

Please review, I need as much help as I can get...
