"Look alive people, we have incoming" a voice was heard throughout the ship.
"Do we have a clue to who it is?" the ship's captain asked
"Familiar transceiver" the pilot said
"Zoe, Jayne get down to the cargo hold, Simon hide River" the captain said
"Should we be worried?" the pilot asked
"We should Wash, we should indeed" the captain smiled.
"What's going on?" the mechanic said scared.
"Kaylee don't move" the captain said as a woman came and placed her hands on the mechanic's shoulde.r
"Zoe, do it" the captain said as his second in command opened the door. Soon an orange blur rushed in heading for Kaylee.
"KAYLEE" The blur said
"HINANO!" Kaylee shouted happily hugging the girl as six more figures walked in
"Nagisa" the captain said
"Mal" Nagisa said handshaking as the rest of his crew happily meeting their counterparts, Soon a girl in a kimono walked in
"Inara" she said
"Yukiko, this way please"
"You got a companion too huh?" Mal asked as he entered the Galley with Nagisa.
"Yeah, well we saved her. We were on Planet Silao, and they were lynching a mansion there and at the gallows was the governor, his sons and her. So being the kind and overly noble type, I suggest we rescued her. Karma and Rink quickly rode in their on the mule guns blazing meanwhile Koki our pilot was coming in low. By this time the governor and his sons were goners; So we're heading on to this course when Karma shot the rope and she dropped into my lap while I was riding horseback while our ship landed on the outskirts of this little town. So Isogai and Hinano were standing there guns drawn as we entered holding a companion." Nagisa explained. "So you got yourselves a doc now do ya"
"Yeah, one on the run from the Alliance" Mal said
"Then you're not going to enjoy why I'm here" Nagisa smirked.
Once they walked back down into the hold they saw the two crews intermigling, Karma and Jayne were having a pissing contest about who had more kills. Zoe was inspecting Rinka's shotgun for proper maintenece, Wash and Koki were animatedly talk about crazy stuns they pulled, Kaylee and Hinano were acting as sisters, Yukiko and Inara went off to talk about companion matters. Isogai, Nagisa's medic stood with Book a Sheppard on Mal's ship.
"A Sheppard Mal, you've gotten soft"
"He's pulled us out of some scrapes in the past" Mal said "So what's the job"
They were seated by crew, on the left sat Mal, Zoe, Jayne, Wash, Book and Kaylee. On the right sat Nagisa, Rinka, Karma, Koki, Isogai, Ryunosuke and Hinano.
"So who's that next to Hinano?" Wash asked
"This is Ryunosuke, my ship's gunner" Nagisa said
"What's the job?" Mal asked.
"This" Nagisa said as he threw an projector on the ground "It's an important relic to a backwater village on the planet Polaria. It's to siginfy safe passage for traders and travellers, only a couple of bandits stole and brought it to Forst for an auction of the black market variety; what we plan to steal it back before the auction" Nagisa said
"Forst, isn't that on the boarder of the Alliance space?" Wash asked
"Yeah, it is. Which makes this more dangerous" Rinka said
"When's the auction?" Mal asked
"Five days, it will take a couple fo days to get there" Nagisa said
"Let's go" Mal said.
"Okay Me, Zoe and Jayne will come from my crew" mal said
"And I'll take Rinka, Karma, Ryunosuke and Isogai" Nagisa
"wait why me?" Isogai asked
"We need some class to case the joint, that's why you are coming" Mal said
"We have a small window people" Nagisa said
"Bad news" Koki said
"What?" Nagisa said
"We've got word of a corrupted Allaince officer going to be there" Wash said
"Shit" they all though
"It has to be *him*" Nagisa said
"Sosuke Suguya" Karma added "Let's do this"
Two days later the theft team landed on Polaria. They came upon a beautiful limestone and marble mansion. Nagisa nodded as Isogai walked up to the door.
"So who we stealing from?" Mal asked
"He's name is Gaku-something Asano" Nagisa said
"Shiny" Jayne said.
"Let's go" Mal said.
"So this is it huh?" Isogai aside
"Yes, the Traveller's Dawn. I acquired it on Polria" Asano said
"I heard it was special to the people there" Isogai said
"Just superstitious rumours" Asano said
"Really" Isogai said
"Yes" Asano said as an Alliance officer walked in
"Ah, Officer Suguya, here to keep an eye on my treasure?" Asano said
"You know it sir" Suguya said smiling.
"Well I must be going now, I'll be back in time for the auction" Asano said "May I escort you out Mr Isogai?"
"Go ahead" Isogai said. Whne he was lead out Isogai went left smiling "Got them"
That night the crew entered the house.
"Jayne, Karma stay here and guard the entrance" Mal said
"And stay quiet!" Nagisa said as the others walked into the yard. "Who knows where Suguya is" Nagisa said
"Zoe, take care of the security" Mal said
"Rinka cover her" Nagisa said
"Yes sir" the girls both said.
"This a lot easier than you made it out to be" Mal said
"I agree" Nagisa said
"Security's taken care of" Zoe said.
Once inside the job crew went to the area where the relic was held.
"Zoe, Jayne stand guard" Mal said
"Karma, Rinka you too" Nagisa said as Mal pulled out a bag
"Jayne?" Zoe asked
"Yeah?"
"Did you seriously bring Vera?" Zoe asked
"She's my best gun, and with that alliance creep around I'm not taking any chances" Jayne griped
"You mean that Alliance creep?" Zoe said pointing at Suguya.
"Intruders" Suguya shout
"Shit" Jayne said
"Oh gorram it Jayne you had one job!" Mal said as he shoved the relic in the bag, nearly making Nagis drop the bag
"OOPH!" Nagis groaned.
"Okay Run and gun; Jayne take the thing" Mal ordered. Jayne lifted the relic easily from Nagisa before running.
"But first" Karma said placing an item on the pedistal. "now we run" Karma said
"You didn't" Rinka said as they safely got away to Mal's shuttle. Once they took off, they all let out a sigh of relief.
"Now we'll take the relic back to the good people of Polaria" Mal said
"Thank you" Nagisa said as he and Mal's coat blew in the wind outside their ships.
"And Inara will take your Companion friend to a safe location" Mal added
"I appreciate it Mal, for that and everything you've done for us" Nagisa said shaking Mal's hand "Until we next meet"
"Agreed" Mal smiled as the pair departed and took off.
From in her bunk Hinano swung on a hammock humming something before softly singing
"Take my love Take my land
Take me to where I cannot stand
I don't care I'm still free you can't take the sky from me
Take me out to the Black
Tell em I ain't coming back
Burn the land and boil the sea
You can't take the sky from me"
"Goodnight Imoto" Nagisa called out as Hinano's bunker door opened
"Night Captain" Hinano chirped
G'day guys Grizz here bringing you a new chapter, and this time its the sci-fi western Firefly. Which I got into by seeing the movie first and then the seires; this also how I got into Joss Whedon's work, Now the ending here is the part of the main theme for Firefly and the Imouto title for Kurahashi is the same as the cast of Firefly calling Kaylee Mei-Mei which is chinese for little sister. So basically Hinano is the little sister of Mal's crew.
So until next time I'll catch you on the flipside, see you later
