Standing upright, Cam shrugged his shoulders. Looking down at the snoring man on their couch, he crossed his arms over his chest lost in thought for the moment. "If the guy's nae gonnae wake up, ah may as well have some fun." he thought to himself as he held out his hand over the couch. His fingertips began to glow subtly as arcane energies flowed outwards and downwards towards their sleeping guest. As they brushed over the strangers hand, they coallesced into a small metallic bowl, filled with water. "Hope he disnae have a weak bladder!" thought Cam as he turned away, chuckling, and headed for his room. Even the small growl he received from Vicki as he passed did little to darken his mood. "Oh haud yer weisht!" he said brightly to her before heading on. Passing AJ's door he rapped on it smartly three times, then called out. "Ah'm headin' for a shower. See ya in 15 darlin'!"
A shower, a shave and a sh..ift of clothes later and he was back in the control room. As he dropped his long coat over the back of the chair he had occupied earlier, there was a soft clink of metal from a concealed blade on the metal of the chair. Leaning on the desk, he looked down at the message on the screen. "Land o' the risin' sun eh?" he smiled to himself. It had been far too long since he had last been there. Raising his gaze from the screen Cam looked out of the window at the peaceful scene of their little island hideaway. "Ach well, ah should have known the peace wouldnae last forever. Naebody was gonnae gie us all this for nae return." With a shrug of his shoulders he pushed himself upright, and began to do a final check on his own equipment. Although his long sword had much greater reach he had decided to pack his katanas instead. They were much easier to conceal within in his jacket, plus he thought it fitting given their destination. Reaching behind him, Cam unholstered his pistols from their custom mount at the small of his back. They released smoothly, silently. He smiled again as he replaced them carefully. Satisfied that his weapons were secure Cam stretched his arms over his head, a small yawn escaping his lips. "Suppose ah should check up on the others." he said to himself, reaching for the microphone.
"Hey Chandi! Have ye picked up De yet? Ah think we are almost ready tae hit the road tae Japan."
