Bar Battle Royale?

Posted on Tue Dec 23rd, 2014 @ 6:13pm by Staff Warrant Officer Nexi & Lieutenant Ventarus Nosplet & Petty Officer 2nd Class Amelia Takethen

Mission: Devotion of Time
Location: Ship's lounge, Deck 9

Nexi sat at the bar of the ship's lounge nursing maybe the eleventh glass of some exotic alcohol the bartender had offered her. She had no clue what it was, but it was making her blissfully numb. She knew shouldn't be getting drunk right now, she had to go pick up Aewia from her therapy soon! But that was part of the reason she was getting drunk; Nexi didn't know how to deal with the pressure of being a good sibling. She'd never had to take care of someone else before and the responsibility of Aewia's care, while rewarding, was also incredibly frustrating. She did her best not to let her sister see it, Aewia already had enough to deal with, but Nexi had to deal with those emotions somehow, and tipping her glass to the bartender for yet another drink seemed to be the reasonable solution.

Amelia, seeing Nexi at the bar, sat next to her and waved for the bartender. "Andorian ale, please." After getting her drink and sipping a bit of it, she turned to Nexi and considered what to say to the other woman. At a loss, she turned back to her drink.

Nexi looked over to Amelia. "What?" she asked simply, not really caring if Amelia actually answered, she just kind of wanted to be left alone for a little while.

Amelia thought a moment, wondering if she shouldn't say anything after all. This would be a short story if she didn't though, so she contrarily decided to. "I saw you drinking alone so I was wondering if you were ok."

"Maybe I like drinking alone," Nexi countered. Then again, it wasn't like she had an abundance of people to drink with. "What about you?"

"Waiting on Ven," Amelia said with a soft smile. "We're going on a date tonight."

And on the note, Ven came strutting into the lounge with a huge grin on his face. He was going on a date with his girlfriend, both were very new to him and he was excited and proud.

"Huh... you and Ven?" Nexi said, looking over her shoulder at the naive young Xenexian... with an Andorian? Wow, she never would have guessed that one! Though maybe it should have been a no-brainer, they both nerd-gasmed over her cloaking device. "How's that working out for you? I was thinking of giving him a try next time he worked on 'Star."

Amelia's antennae rotated forward aggressively, her head tilting forward a bit. "What do you mean by 'giving him a try'?" She shouldn't think anything of it, but for some reason it raised her hackles a bit, her Andorian blood heating a bit. Setting a package she had had in her lap on the counter, she turned to Nexi, awaiting clarification.

Nexi suppressed the urge to smile, her face remaining relaxed and passive as she took another sip of her drink. "Dunno... Just been a while since I've had a good throw down, and he must like it rough if he's willing to date an Andorian so that's right up my alley..." Then she looked to Amelia like she just had a moment of brilliance. "Hey! Maybe we can have a threesome!"

That confirmed Amelia's suspicions. She was after Ven too? So be it. Grinning widely, she finished her drink in one swig. "Why not a foursome like other Andorian couples?" she spat out. That sort of thing was something Amelia definitely didn't want to share Ven like that.

"Nah," Nexi replied after considering the offer. "A four-way gets too complicated for my liking, though I'll do it if I had to, but really it would just distract me from Ven. I just thought you might be interested seeing as you're dating him and I thought you looked feisty."

Amelia stood and stretched a little, motioning towards Ven to join her. "I'm not really willing to share like that."

Ven saw Amelia across the room and his face brightened. He quickly made his way over to her. It was then that he saw Nexi. "Hey." He said to Ameilea. Then he smiled to Nexi. "Hello again..." and then he noticed the tension between the two ladies.

"Oh hey, Ven," Nexi said with a grin. "I'm bored. Whadya say we go back to my shuttle for a few hours for some rough sex?"

That really got Amelia's hackles up. "I still owe you a massage. I might need to be a little rough with it." What was she thinking? Nexi was her friend, wasn't she? But then again, this was an opportunity to prove to Ven that she would stand up and fight for him. Was that Nexi's intent? or was she serious?

Ven gave Nexi an odd look but assumed she was joking around. I mean why would someone like Nexi even be looking at Ven. "Oh yeah sure, let's go do that." He said with a little chuckle and a roll of his eyes. But he could see something was up between the two ladies. "You ready to go?" He asked Ameilea. He knew he was ready to get out of there.

"Hey, sounds awesome! where are we going?" Nexi said, playing up her drunkenness a bit as she put her arms around both Ven and Amelia's shoulders.

'Tenderly,' Amelia removed herself and Ven from Nexi's arms as she pulled Ven to the side and placed herself between them. "You're too drunk to fuck anyway so how about you go find a bed to crawl up in and sleep it off."

Ooooh, that was a low blow! But it was the perfect excuse Nexi needed to pull her arm back and throw a punch at Amelia, and she definitely didn't look drunk when she did it.

Amelia didn't even have time to dodge as the punch hit her right in the side of the face. Amelia did however have time to reply with a swift throat jab as she stumbled back a step.

Ven had no idea what to do about the two friend throwing punches at each other. But it was NJ it another guy messing with Ameilea so he didn't feel it was his place to jump in. Hell, even Ven would admit with out hesitation that Ameilea was way tougher then him, so he just stepped out of the way and up to the bar. Might as well enjoy a drink with his show.

Amelia's strike just barely grazed Nexi's throat, but it was still a good indication of just how strong Amelia was. Shit, Andorians... But Nexi was fast and the more skilled fighter, and she countered with a series of quick jabs at Amelia.

In reality, Nexi was a lot faster than Amelia's engineering trained muscles. She pretended to just take the hits and brush them off though they really hurt. "Ha! Is that the best you've got? I've felt harder kicks from a tribble." with that taunt, she didn't even bother swinging back, instead taking a slightly more defensive posture and advancing a step.

They were definitely making a scene now and Nexi grinned wide, the numb feeling from the alcohol making her feel a bit high with the rush of adrenaline. But Amelia's words were like a bucket of ice water. Fucking bitch! A few more jabs to force Amelia to focus on Nexi's upper body, and then threw a scissor kick at Amelia, throwing her to the ground in a rather humiliating display and subduing her in a leg lock.

Amelia hit the deck hard, her head spinning from the impact before realizing Nexi was trying to keep her in a leg lock. In this, Nexi had made a mistake. Amelia easily broke the lock and grabbed Nexi's arm and pulled hard, trying to dislocate the woman's shoulder at the very least. Nexi may have been more experienced and a better fighter, but Amelia had her strength and now that she had a grip on Nexi's arm she wasn't about to let go.

"Fuck!" Nexi cried out as she felt the pressure on her shoulder. She tried to get out of the hold, and she might have been able to if her opponent hadn't been Andorian, but she was very near to wrenching her arm out of socket.

Nexi wasn't able to struggle for long as a couple of security officers, who had been on break in the lounge and witnessed the entire fight, moved in to subdue Nexi. They pulled the two women apart and hauled Nexi to her feet, not even giving the Brekkian woman a chance to check her shoulder.

Ven sat at the bar. With all that was going on he had not been able to order a drink, so he sat there sipping on Nexi's drink while he watched. To bad the security guards were breaking things up, looked like Ameilea was just starting to get her grove.

As soon as the security guards grabbed her, Amelia let her grip go as they pulled the two women apart. Her Andorian blood was still pumping hard though so she had to say something else as she wiped a trickle of blue blood from her grinning face. "I was wrong. You're stronger than a tribble. You're as strong as a tribble fucker."

Nexi had pretty much started this fight purely because it amused her, but she was not going to let that insult go unpunished. She built up a charge within her body and let it loose on the officers restraining her. It was just painful enough for them to loosen their grip on her and Nexi lunged on Amelia with a feral cry. They both went down hard and Nexi grabbed Amelia by the hair, right by one of her antennae. In fact, Nexi was quite mindful to not harm the delicate appendage, and she could quite easily if she was just a little bit more rough or if she decided to give Amelia a jolt.

"I never wanted Ven, I just wanted to blow off some steam, and I though it would make you look good for your boyfriend if you kicked my ass a little, but even I wouldn't call no one a 'tribble fucker'!" Nexi growled into Amelia's ear. Amelia could feel that static of a charge building up within Nexi as she prepared to release another jolt, but one of the security officers drew his phaser and fired a shot at Nexi to stun her, and Nexi went limp atop Amelia.

That tackle terrified Amelia and with Nexi being in direct contact with Amelia, She got some of the stun effect herself. Her head was spinning and she felt like she was going to throw up. Then there was what Nexi said. Was she really trying to do this for her? She didn't use her electric shock thing until the end and she never drew her knives. Amelia had forgotten about those but with Nexi passed out on top of her, she could feel dozens of them at least through her clothes. She had no doubt Nexi could have cut off both her sensitive antennae with ease if she had wanted to.

The Security officers eased Nexi off of Amelia. "Do we need to call Sickbay?" one of the officers asked Amelia when he noticed that she was slightly disoriented.

Ven was at the security officers side. "Unless she needs to go to the brig, I can take care of her." He said looking down at her. He still had Nexi's drink in his hand and had found a crazy shaped straw somewhere that he was now using to suck up the exotic drink. He didn't know what it was but it tasted really good.

"At this time, we don't think it's necessary to take her to the brig since she wasn't the instigator, but her superior may have to have a talk with her," the Security Officer replied. "Keep an eye on her in case she shows any adverse effects of the stun." Then the two officers picked up Nexi and took her out of the lounge.

Ven held his hand out for Amelia to help her off the floor. "So is that how Andronians keep friends?" He asked her honestly wanting to understand what just happend. He slumped the last of the drink through his straw once she was back on her feet.

Amelia put a hand to her forehead and leaned against Ven as she got her bearings. "No, I'm not entirely sure what that was now. Your present is on the bar, by the way." she said as she motioned to the package she had left there.

Ven looked at her with a side way glance. "What do you mean you don't know what that was about. I mean, I have never had two girls fight over me before but it seemed kinda straightforward." He helped her back over to the bar.

Amelia just shook her head and tried to avoid talking about it further, sliding the package over to Ven. "Open your present."

Ven grabbed the package and tore into it, curious to see what she had gotten for him.

Inside was a flabbjellah, the antique Andorian sidearm that had doubled as a musical instrument. The finish was worn in a few places, but it looked completely intact and functional. It even had some dummy ammo to use for music purposes.

"Wow!" Ven said, then looked up at Amelia. "I would be lying to you if I said I knew what thus was."

Amelia smiled warmly as she explained the strange device. " it's a flabbjellah. An old Andorian sidearm that doubles as a musical instrument. The ammo with it is only good for making music."

"Wow!" He repeated but this time there was more awe in his voice. "Can you show me how it works?"

Amelia picked it up and loaded it, playing a few notes. The lyrical tune danced through the air, sounding a bit like ice cracking and shifting. Finishing, she handed the device back to Ven.

"That's awesome!" Ven said in wonder as he took instrument back from her. "I have two gifts for you." Ven said with a grin as he pulled a data chip out of his pocket. He set it on the bar and slid it to her.

Amelia picked up the data chip and looked it over with a smile. "What's on it?"

"It's an exact simulation of the Kumari. You can mess with it and upgrade it until your heart is content. If you need any help I happen to know someone who would be very excited to crawl around in there with you." Ven said with a smile. "That's the first gift."

Tucking the chip into her pocket, Amelia leaned against Ven with a smile. "What's the second?"

"This..." he said as he turned his head and pressed his lips to hers. It was a quick kiss, but Ven could not believe he had worked up the courage to do even that.

Amelia actually blushed a bit from the kiss, her blue skin deepening slightly. Pulling him closer, she kissed him back. "I think that's a perfect gift."
