TwoFox "will": "Captn'!" The first mate called from the forward deck, "Got a band of cultists makin' their way sneaky-like along the skytrain track off the port bow! Looks to be some sort of raidin' party!"
The captain stood, tapped his pipe out the open window and quickly made his way to the top deck, vaulting over cargo and pausing for a moment only to rouse the large man sleeping in the hammock who fell to the deck with a loud crash and and an even louder string of curses. He spotted Finn near the bow, and took the spyglass the man stood holding out for him. There was certainly a sizable party making its way along the tracks, though he couldn't quite determine the affiliation from the great distance that lay between them. Finn only had one good eye, but the one he had was as sharp as an eagle's, and he had never been wrong in the many years the two had known each other.
"Have they spotted us yet?"
"Don't seem so."
He handed the eyeglass back to his first mate and made his way aft, shouting orders. The cultists were certainly a slimy bunch but train robbery wasn't something they were known for. The matter certainly warrented investigation.
[10/27/2013 5:08:17 PM] TwoFox "will": Plus, this was the most interesting thing they had spotted all week.
[10/27/2013 5:16:00 PM] Seth Bluemoon: The figure in the back of the cargo simply remained silent and waited, closing his amber eyes as he awaits the voyage.

[10/27/2013 5:17:33 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: The ship hovered below the railing of the ship, under the cover of the clouds. They were waiting long enough to get a good distance from the port. A few minutes passed, Before suddenly a Large explosion boomed throughout the sky train, followed by a quick second. Black smoke shrouded the windows of the train as the explosion successfully took out the balancing system of the train. Within moments The train began to teter totter on the monorail.
[10/27/2013 5:40:31 PM] Mr.Crow888: Just after exiting the first car Torarie sees the man in the bowler cap loading that brass bullet into a silver plated single shot Long-Barreled flintlock pistol and aim it at clasp between the two cars, she shouts "Wait hey what do you-", just before the man shoots the huge high tech lock, the lock bursting into an explosion of melted red hot metalic sludge, sending out sparks and white hot chunks of steel into the fast mooving wind, Torarie drew her revolver and took two shots at the man before he lept off the train falling a good distance before a hang glider sprouted from his back and he vanished into the wind*

[10/27/2013 5:53:34 PM | Edited 5:58:50 PM] Seth Bluemoon: The figure reacted like a bolt of lightening a split second after the loud explosion, his gloves lighting up and a blast of dark blue power shot out of them, blowing a hole in the side of the cargo hold. With a deft movement he leapt out of the new entrance, a gylph of energy forming under his feet for a moment in the air, before launching him upwards onto the top of the train, another glyph forming under him upon landing which anchored him to the train. His gloves runes turned green before he clapped them together, mumbling just two words.
"Spiorad Earraigh."
After which he thrust his hands forwards, a green symbol forming in front of his outstretched hands before a thin green draconic beast shot out of the symbol and slammed into the top of the train, forming a large green glyph with runes covering the outside and a draconic face in the centre. Just then long green vines shot out of the glyph, growing downwards and attempting to wrap around the train and the track to try and attain balance once again.
[10/27/2013 5:55:06 PM | Edited 5:56:55 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: Suddenly the Airship came into view directly next to the Sky train. Before before long Nearly a dozen cloaked figures jumped off the edge of the airship and onto the top of the train, magnetic boots snapping to the metal as they spread out, using metal cutters to carve holes in the ceiling of the train.
(reposted after seth's post)
[10/27/2013 6:00:09 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: Three of the Cloaked figures looked at the new figure where the vines came from. Standing up, two of them took out mid-range rifles with a yellow energy core as the third began to advance with a single-edged bronze sword with a similar yellow core.
[10/27/2013 6:21:38 PM] Mr.Crow888: Torarie sees the Green beast fly up to the passanger cars roof behind her, and turns, then using her large foreclaws she grips the trains metal haul and pulls herself up to the top of the sky train, once up there, she draws her pistol but the wind is too harsh for her to aim properly so she holsters it and holds her arms close to her chest as black triangles start overlapping all over her body like dragon scales, once the "armor" is completed shes covered in key spots with the black spikey energy and she stands up as if the wind didnt hamper her in the least, before she takes a full running sprint forward her wings appear to have disapeared into her back to keep them from catching in the wind, Once she arrives at the throwdown she draws her pistol and forms a black pyramid in her left claw, prepairing herself to move forward.
[10/27/2013 6:27:21 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: Three others of the invading party maneuver in front of Torarie as the rest of the boarders finish their holes, jumping into the passanger car and out of sight. The two gunners in front of the wolf figure aim with the wind, allowing the high speeds to their advantage against other long range defence.
[10/27/2013 6:29:00 PM | Edited 6:30:14 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: [R8] The first gunner takes fire at the wolf figure, but the wind catches his elbow and the bullet lands right next to the anthro wolf's foot, piercing the metal shell of the train.
[10/27/2013 6:42:25 PM] Seth Bluemoon: The figure raises his hand up, his gloves runes glowing green as a small glyph forms in his raised right hand and he speaks.
"Spiorad Earraigh, mé a thoghairm tú."
As he speaks, 5 vines grow out of the centre of the gylph with the others, but these vines twine together around the centre, forming a draconic face with branches for horns, only about 20ft long (R15) but it launches forwards and strikes at the centre man, biting hard into his side with wooden teeth. (R18) the Dragon flicks its head back, launching the one it bit clean into the air and lettting go, sending them flying, before then moving into a semi-coil where its blocking vision of the figure but is facing the oncoming enemies.
[10/27/2013 6:48:57 PM | Edited 7:06:09 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: [R3] The man hit by the draconic vines doesn't move in time and gets hit directly bitten. As he gets tossed, he shoots a Grappling gun at the train to try and get back on board. [R20] The figure manages to shoot the grappling gun into a window on the train, being forced to dangle precariously underneath against the wind. [R16] He recovers quickly and begins to pull himself up against the wind towards the window he latched onto.
[10/27/2013 6:51:54 PM] Brandon - DrakoEthnAegis: Narrative: [R10] The other marksman, while the other loaded his gun, Shot his rifle at Seth. The wind and the tottering train cause for his aim to be slightly off, but he grazes the anthro wolf on the leg, leaving a trickling trail of blood splattering against the wind as it simply pierced the surface of the skin.

[10/27/2013 7:30:55 PM] Seth Bluemoon: The figure lets out an anamalistic growl, before raising his hand once again, 5 more vines appearing from the gylph but these ones growing down the side of the train instead, the draconic head turns and faces its caster before shooting forwards, opening its jaws and swallowing the figure (me) whole (R11) without biting them. There's an auidible gulp and a buldge moves down the dragon's neck, vanishing into the gylph, before it re-appears and moves down the newly grown vines which twis up into a second dragon head. the dragon coils its head up behind torarie and opens its jaws, the figure launching out and landing (r18) on his feet, the gylph under his feet forming just as he lands to ensure a strong landing before he raises his hands up, the runes on his gloves turning red, and launches a ball of fire at the figures, using the wind to make a wall of flame as the fireball explodes. (r16+5 due to being downwind) and the wall of fire launches at the enemies on the train.

Twofox:
Crevan climbs up on top of the passenger car, recieving nods from the two teams from the men who set the charges. He moves awkwardly across the top of the train and grasps one of the mooring lines before signalling for his men to detonate the explosives. They do so immediately, weakening the clamps enough that the weight from the two cars sheared the links instantaniously, sending the engine and cargo car careening down to the desert below. The rapid descent began gradually slowing, the desert growing closer, and closer, and closer, untill finally slowing to a stop, car hanging only feet above the dune below.
"Can't believe that worked!" he said with a grin as he grappled onto the rigging, hoised himself up, and stepped calmy onto the deck of his vessel. "Gentlemen, and ladies" he added hastily, having noticed Torarie's presence, "welcome aboard the Risen Dawn."
