Stowing away on an airship was never an easy task. Let alone one of the Southern Alliance of Sparks. Still, though, once she found a crate large and empty enough, all she had to do was wait.

The unfortunate part of this task is that crates get very hot and stuffy. As such, once she deemed it safe, she worked her way out of the thing, and up to an empty part of the airship's deck to cool off.

But, alas, it wasn't as empty as she believed. Near one of the windows stood a large, red and gold colored Clank with a familiar sigal plate on its shoulder. When most Clanks tend to be hand made, they have unique little intricacies about them. This one, in particular, had a single-lensed massive eye.

Bella blinked, "..Captain Copper?" The confused expression on her face was obvious.

"SUBJECT IDENTIFIED. ANNABELLA FENNIX." The Clank turned to face her with a loud clack clack of its clockwork mechanics. "ORDERS ARE: TERMINATE SUBJECT."

"Wait--WHAT." Bella blinked twice, "CLANK. HALT." She shouted, the Command reverbing into her voice with the anger.

Captain Copper, as its so aptly named, halted indeed. "ORDER FROM KINTOTECH HEIR CONFIRMED."

Her order, however, wasn't quiet. "--HEY! You aren't supposed to be here!" Several individuals had heard, and now had seen her presence. "GET HER!"

"Aw hell." She made a break for it.

Given that they're all on airships, the massive flaw in her plan quickly made itself obvious when she was trapped in a hallway. It disentigrated into a brawl, "You people fight like CONSTRUCTS." ... Safe to say, her insults could use a little work. All in all, though, it ended with her getting slung out the window.

She swore a lot. Raised her right arm towards the airship. CLACK-CLACK-HISS-BOOM! Her right hand on its chain flew towards the airship at a blinding speed.

A shout of "GIVE ME THAT" and "But--that's--!" And one of the men aims an odd looking gun down at her. And fires. In a flash of blue light and a surprised yelp, Bella is gone just before her hand reaches the edge of the window.

"..You know, considering all we've heard about her brother, you really sure that'll keep her gone?" One man asks the other.

The other responds, "Hell, if it does, we'll just shoot her with it again."
