The stars aren't right!(Helena/Courage Wolf)


Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Willow and Helena quickly reach the shipwreck with Aqua trailing behind them, smartly dragging an airbubble with her. Apart from the hullbreach, there's an open door and a closed latch leading under the deck.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena points and starts moving towards the door, shedding her fuzzy form and using her wings to propel her through the water faster and with a little more control, treating everything as if she was in 0G again. *Lets get a lookin~! And thanks for the air bubble Aqua* Helena sent to the two cheerfully, clearly excited.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Behind the door there's a small staircase followed by a dozen doors arranged on a hallway, only the left one at the back open. Willow and Aqua both follow Helena, Willow slower due to lack of wings and Aqua slowed by the air.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena pointed at the doors, telling them to search at this end while she headed down to the open door at the end to give it a look since she was currently the fastest here. Pushing off a wall and tucking her wings in, Helena moved like a shot down the wall to stop herself on the wall and taking a look through the open door. If she saw nothing of interest, she would start searching the others systematically, meeting the pair hopefully in the middle.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Willow nods at Helena and braces her legs against a wall before trying to pull the first door open. The door swings open slowly, and Willow sticks her head inside Aqua to draw breath before swimming in.

The cabin Helena swims into looks like an ordinary crew cabin, with not much in the way of furniture apart from a desk, a bed and a heavy chest in one corner.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Chest! Bingo~! Swimming over to the chest, Helena tried to open it, if that didn't work, she would draw a line of acid across the hinges and lock, working until either the metal, or the wood surrounding it gave way and showed her what was inside. She wondered if Magic was a cheat code for the universe, chuckling mentally at the thought as she worked.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The lid of the chest refuses to budge at first, but as the hinges corrode, a burst of air comes from inside and the lid comes loose. The chest is filled with clothes and other misc items, and Helena's lungs are starting to feel the burn from lack of oxygen.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena doesn't waste any time looking for a purse or anything shiny before heading towards Aqua for a breath, thankful she could push her luck a little because of the extra speed her wings gave her under the water. After getting her fresh lungful, she would head to the next door. It seemed the chests were basically footlockers, but that wasn't going to stop her from searching all of them.

*You two found anything good yet?* She asked as she worked, wondering how much air Aqua had managed to grab.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

*Nothing in here.* Willow is has just finished searching a chest as helena comes in, taking a lungful of the stale air Aqua has stored. Helena manages to pull open the door, though it strains her muscles to do that, while Willow struggles to open her second one, before finally managing it with Aqua's help. The second room is much like the first one, except there are writing supplies on the desk and two chests instead of one.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena does the same as before, opening both of the chests in a similar manner, this time skipping the fancy and working on the wood itself, hoping to just melt a hole in the top of the chest to get a look inside. afterwords searching the desk as well. *Doesn't seem to be much in here* Helena sent across with a mental chuckle. How much air do you still have in there Aqua?*
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

These chests have some more expensive looking clothes, but little else of value. *Same here*

Aqua hesitates before answering: *A couple lungfuls. We should get back soon.*
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

*Or speed up~* Helena teased as she moved to the next door and just blasted her way through it, not wanting to bother with yanking the damn thing open and being a demon had it's perks after all. She had been being gentle when she worked on the crates and chests, not for doors, doors could go to hell. Rather then search this one however, she just blew it open and then moved to the next, blowing open each door to speed up the process for the others as well. This was helpful because they could search faster without having to use up what air Aqua could use. After this was all done, Helena headed to Aqua for more air before moving to another door and picking through it, opening any chests and more specifically, looking for any room that stood out from the others.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Most of the rooms seem mostly empty, and only one of them really stands out with noticeably richer atmosphere. There is even a large silver mirror there. However, all other valuables seem to be gone from the ship. Willow and Aqua head for the surface, and soon Helena feels the need for fresh air as well.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Bursting through the surface of the water and breathing deeply, Helena immediately dropped below the surface again and headed for the closed latch that led below. It seemed searching the crews quarters was going to be fruitless, but maybe... heading to the latch, Helena was just as brutal opening this as well. The ship was already sunk, what was it goin to do? Leak?!
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Willow stays at the surface while Aqua follows Helena back down with another air supply. The latch leads down to another hallway, with an open door leading to the hold and another to a kitchen, while a third door seems to be closed.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The Hold had been cleared, the Kitchen would have nothing they needed really, and the third door was.... A Mystery... Catfacing under the water, Helena moved towards it and set about melting the thing out of the way. Who knew, maybe they would have some luck~
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

The third door bursts open to reveal a small storage space filled with jars and bottles and barrels filled with foodstuffs. Some of the bottles are decorated and appear to be wine.
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena grinned widely. *And we have booze!* She declared happily, starting on clearing out the small space of anything sealed and protected from the water. A night of drunken debauchery? Yes please. But if the food was here..... What was in the kitchen?

Stopping what she was doing immediately, she grabbed a fresh lungful from Aqua and headed there, starting to systematically pick over the entire room from top to bottom. Why would someone... On a whim, Helena started suddenly looking for any wood that seemed a slightly different color or grain as she searched...
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

Helena finds a small secret compartment under the table, containing several heavy ceramic bottles. Meanwhile Aqua collects a number of winebottles. *Anything else you want to take from here? We might have to make another trip.*
 
Re: Are the stars right?(Helena/Courage Wolf)

*Ya, We're going to have to go over this again, They have secret stashed goodies* Helena sent over to Aqua, holding up one of the bottles. Carefully collecting them all, sprouting tendrils if she had too, Helena made her way back to the surface for now. Inhaling deeply as she breathed fresh air, she headed to shore with her prize and hopped out of the water, setting the jars down and drying herself with a word and a gesture, going back to being fluffy and warm. She really did like this form, it was snuggly.
