DUSKHUNTER: Chapter Three... "The Prisoner"

[Gallahan]

I quickly cross the clearing and survey the beached Laura Celeste vessel. There is some Spanish Moss hanging from its bow and sides. I round the vessel and walk into the waters of the Appomattox River. I make my way to the rear of the vessel, where there is a ladder leading to a rear entry deck at the aft of the yacht. So far, I have seen NO ONE.

I climb the ladder and make my way into the interior of the LAURA CELESTE. I hear crying. I venture to a room adjacent to the engine room and discover a most beautiful lady with GREEN EYES tied to a chair. Her eyes widen in shock as she sees me.

WHAT DO I DO?

[Shawn Merrow]

Went with the first option since "Shoot her since she is a monster." was missing.

[Gallahan]

The lady is not gaged. She seems scared. Her eyes dart to and fro, and then fix upon Kolchan's. She is quietly whimpering, bordering on crying. She is scared out of her mind, but somehow maintains a tight control on her emotions. She makes eye contact with Kolchan and stage-whispers, "Please... please. Untie me before *they* come back!"

Kolchan hesitates for just a moment, and then she says, "I know things... I know where IT is. We have to take IT away from them before it's too late! Please..."

[Lord Z]

Sorry Kolchan, but you are in a lose or lose situation. If you untie her, she will be the monster who eats you. If you leave her, she will be the innocent who was killed due to your cowardness, and the police will probably arrest you for the crime. There is a Killer GM after you!

I agree with NT. Quietly searching the boat is probably the smart thing to do. If she screams and gets you killed, at least it won't be your fault.

[mrloucifer]

None of those outcomes would happen under my GM roof!

I'd give you just long enough to free the girl before the boat would sink, killing both of you via the sharks that circled the boat while it sank!!

What part of BWAH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!!!! dont you understand?

Now that's the spirit! KOBIASHI MARU. "Khaaaaaaaaaan! KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!!!!" (echo then pan across dead asteroid in space)

[Gallahan]

I voted for comforting the lady in hopes of gaining a wife, because all work and no play makes Kolchan something something

Well put. And, hey, ya never know. Of course, Kirk never did truly end up with any of the hot women he "romanced." And, where were they when the bridge gave way? No a single one there for support. Hmmmm....

LOL

[Mr. Jays]

Untie her, so you can get away quickly if you need to. As a reporter, quickly find out WHO, WHAT, WHEN, WHERE, WHY, and HOW. Possibly have her lead you to the "IT." If she doesn't feel safe at the moment, take her somewhere she feels safe to interview her (a coffee shop on the other end of town, a bar, your place, ect.) Determine what Kolchan's next course of action should be after getting info.
