Tri-Edge
Kite sat down in another chair, simply laying her hand over the command board as Duke was trying to get the ship started. She looked around and ha already analyse the ship, she turned her head toward her companion.
-Do...you need me...to take care of the rest?-
She asked in a low tone voice, almost hesitant. As if she hadn't spoke in years, wich was the case.

Duke Nukem
"Don't worry... it's a bit unlike what I'm used to, but I've seen and done worse. I can pilot this thing by myself no problem most of the time, although I might need some help if the situation gets... complicated."
Duke said, seemingly calmer and a bit happier than before now that she had a way to come back home and away from crazy planets with crazy aliens crazily bent on devouring her or transforming her into a slave girl.
"...If you do want to help anyway, however, sure, no problem." She looked at the data indicating by the screens by her side. "Let's see... That station over there, as I'm guessing you may already know... is the Operations Station. If you want to, I can leave the Sensors/Communications/Navigation duties to you, which you can handle there", she said indicating a semi-circular station a couple of yards to the side of the Captain's chair.
"Once we're out of this hole and in space... your first job is to calculate a trajectory to the nearest human-controlled sector. Not just planet... I want it to be a big area not-controlled by a Corporation of assholes just waiting to interrogate us like that other time. As for me..."
She powered up the ship's systems, aiming the Phaser Emitters at the wall around the hole she had opened to enter the Armory, to make a bigger hole to exit it!
"...MY job is to get us out of here." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5 stones into Vehicle Operations (Defiant-Class Starship) to power the ship up...
12 stones (Ef.) into Ranged Combat plus 3 from Targeting, plus 6 from firing two Phaser Emitters, into a 21 stones (2x damage, Automatically cause collateral damage if Normal Damage) attack meant to make a hole in the side of the mountain big enough for the Defiant-Class to fly through and get to the skies.
...If I succeed, I'll then maneuver the ship using my stones in V.O, plus 7 from the Ship's Maneuver modifier, to get us out at a Flight speed of 1-2 (depending if it's easy) until we're out of the mountain.

Tri-Edge
Kite nodded once again and went to sit at the Operation station. He started up the functions and got ready to get the informations needed that Duke asked for. A human controlled sector huh. Well, if something like this exist near the place, that'd be great.
-Understood...-
She said roughly as her fingers started moving across the board in order to gain the informations. She started to scan across the galaxy and use informations stored on the ship data base to set their course on their next destination.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- 6 in computers, +3 PCPT, help with the 6 in scanning from the ship, to find a place control by human and a sector not regulated by any Organisation or thing of the sort.
help with 4 in bio-computing to get access to the data more easily.

You blast out, and fly out the mountain as Tri-Edge calculates the location of a planet called Rimwater a recently colonized planet designed with an old western look, and feel.

Tri-Edge
Kite looked at the data for a moment then relayed the information to Duke.
-I found this place...-
He said, transfering the information so it would appear on a screen near Duke. But he kept looking at the surrounding of the planet, so to know more about others planets, system and if any other living beings inhabitated the area.

Duke Nukem
"Seems fine for now", Duke said as she thoughtfully considered the location. "I just want a place to stay down for a bit and relax. Deal with... all that, you know?", she said, pointing at her body. "Then again... I figure it isn't bothering you too much, huh? Being a... how did you say it again, a program? How does that even work, anyway? ...You're a computer program, materialized into a living body?", she asked, curious.
As she discussed with Tri-Edge, she set a course for Rimwater, entering its coordinates as the ship headed towards space at a greater speed. When the Defiant exited the atmosphere, Duke said:
"...Okay, coordinates, set. Let's see if this pretty little thing's got guts. Let's start reasonably fast. Entering Warp factor 4."
As she did, she checked the data to adjust speed if necessary. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5 stones into Vehicle Operations (Defiant-Class Starship) to pilot the ship; first we'll use Flight 5, increasing steadily to 8 to exit the planet's atmosphere; once out, I'll increase it to Warp 4; which is Flight 17 (max 102 times the Speed of Light), to get us on our way to Rimwater.
Also, 6 stones into Technology (Computers, Vehicles) plus 6 from the ship's Cybernetic Senses, to calculate how long it'll take to get us there at that speed, so I can increase or lower it accordingly.

Tri-Edge calculates that the planet is secluded, but well populated with over half-a billion people.
Duke calculates that it will likely take about a day to reach Rimwater at current speed.

Tri-Edge
He kept note of it but apparently that place would do for the time being. Duke didn't knew, but he was asking a lot of Tri-Edge right now. For her to answer was really killing her troat, even tough she was a program, her voice sounded raspy.
-I don't think this is what you call a living body...-
She paused after that. Then, put her hand on the board and used the computer voice to speak again.
-I may seem alive, but I never had a human body, it is a complexe situation...-
She said once again. She had looked at the planet data for a while and see how they look, her and Duke would most likely stand out, not that she did care, but for the sake of it, she decided to transform her clothing a little to fit the place. They soon turned into more western style clothing tough keeping a bit the feeling of what she wa actually wearing.
-Would this be fine?-
She asked Duke after the change.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4 in reality hacking, to transform my clothes to fit the style on the planet.

Duke Nukem
Duke nodded distractedly as she listened to Tri-Edge's answer which wasn't exactly an answer. The girl didn't seem to know herself, so she seemed to have trouble explaining it to her companion.
"Bah. As long as you're okay with it, I guess... although you really should try speaking by yourself more often. There won't always be a computer next to you, you know?", she said with a smile.
When Tri-Edge asked if her clothes were fine, she raised an eyebrow.
"...I... guess. It's not like I've seen the locals yet. Still, it's better than those go***mn bikinis. Now, let's see... at Warp 4, we have for a whole day of travel. Let's get it to Warp 8, still within the ship's cruising speed... this'll make this trip a 2 hours and a half thing." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5 stones into Vehicle Operations (Defiant-Class Starship) to pilot the ship; boosting the ship to Warp 8; which is Flight 20 (max 1024 times the Speed of Light), to get us to Rimwater in two hours and a half, so I can have some time to do a couple of things and chat with Tri-Edge before we get there.

Tri-Edge changes her outfit to a white Stetson, white button shirt, black vest, shin-length denim skirt with knee-high slits on each side, and loose comfy ankle-length cowboy boots with no socks.
Dutchess meanwhile gets the ship up to warp 8.

Tri-Edge
-Should I change your clothes as well? If not, there is also this device in the ship that allow you to re-create thing and probably clothes located..*She gave the location of said function*.-
She said, sitting down in her seat, looking at her new hat with curiosity. Of course, her blue-aqua hair would still stand out but she didn't feel like changing that at all.

(OOC: Replicators are actually many, and located in several areas of the ship, in fact. Actually, there is one in the bridge area itself.)
Duke Nukem
"...Dammit... I promised myself I wouldn't let anyone around try to change things on me anymore, but I gotta admit... those clothes look darn good on you", Duke sighed. "Alright... fine. Go ahead and change them... but please be careful! I've gone through enough physical changes as it is, okay?", she said, seemingly feeling pretty uneasy about the whole thing.

Tri-Edge
(OOC: I didn't knew that, thanks!)
Kite nodded, was she just praised? She approached Duke and put her fingers on her shoulder and changed her clothes to something similar to her's but different so they wouldn't be copy cat.
-Don't worry, it's just the clothes...-
She said. Giving Duke a western styled outfit, the color and lenght of the clothes were a bit different and the design differed a bit as well but in all, it turned out quite nicely.
--------------------------------------------------------------- 5 in reality hacking to change Duke's clothes to something fitting, mostly based on my own clothes but with different colors and little change in shape.

You change Duke's outfit. The shirt is red, the hat is black, and the boots go up to just under her knees, otherwise it's the same.
