Katie shakes his hand firmly again. "Thank you, Commander," she says. "I am looking forward to your decision, and I hope to join your expedition tomorrow." She gives him the name and room number of the hotel where she is staying in Panama City, as well as the telephone number, so that he can contact her.

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
Evening, Tuesday, September 19, 1933
"Good bye, Miss Wright." Starkweather turned to Professor Moore and said, "Please come to see me when you've finished, William. There are a few things that we need to discuss." He then left the room.
Professor Moore asked Katie if she could linger for a few minutes, then instructed Ernest to seek out First Officer Turlow on the main deck for a quick tour of the ship and to be led to his cabin.
After Ernest left the room, Moore closed the door and turned to Katie.

The two men rushed into the adjacent room, to Øyvind. Paco knelt and gently shook the Norwegian's shoulder. "Øyvind," Paco said. "Padre Rucker is here. Tell him what is wrong, por favor."

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
Øyvind lies over to his side grabbing his throat 'Father' 'I think it was a dream' 'i dont know why but im not sure if it was' .... 'I woke and was going down the hall towards the toilets' 'it was in the mirror' ' some kind of leech' 'it borrowed itself beneath my skin' 'i was so terrified' 'it was so real' 'the pain the crawling made' 'God' ...... Øyvind starts to silently cry as he massages his neck should and throat. 'I tried to scream i even fired my gun' 'but none came' 'i think i fainted and awoke here' 'im not sure' 'it was so real' 'i cannot had been a dream' 'ive never had a dream like that'

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
Calm down son, calm down. God protects his children and your soul is among them.
Father Paul Rucker tries to comfort the panicked Norwegian.
Paco, water please.
He turns back to Øyvind and tries to check his neck and nape. In addition he tries to recall similar things from his knowledge of the occult and the mythos and his biological knowledge about parasite organisms. If he recalls none, he tries some common knowledge about tropical diseases that Dr. Watkins might be the help.

The priest does not see any physical damage; no wounds, bruises, or blood. Nothing, other than the psychological impact--probably temporary, he believes--that Øyvind apparently has taken from his nightmare.royya wrote:Let me see.

After Father Rucker completes his examination of Øyvind, he sees that Paco has returned with a pitcher of water and cups. Paco fills a cup with water and hands it to the priest. "Here is water, Padre. Está bien? Is he OK?
Father Rucker notices that Paco's hand is trembling as he passes the water.

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
From the Owner's Suite on the Boat Deck (where Katie met with Professor Moore), Katie climbs one flight of stairs, opening a stout wooden door at the top into a large, brightly lit room with captain's wheel, an array of desks, navigational equipment, and maps, along with two gentlemen in naval attire.Mr. Handy wrote:Katie heads for the stairway forward of the galley and ascends to the next deck.

An elderly officer turns as Katie enters, saying, "Good evening. Might I be of assistance?"

"Good evening, sir," says Katie. "I'm Katie Wright. Are you the captain? I'd like to look around the ship, with your permission, of course."

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
"Yes ma'am, I am Captain Vredenburgh and this is Arthur Ballard, my second officer," he said as he reached forward to shake hands with Katie.
"And your name is Katie Wright? I'm afraid that I don't recall you being on the ship's roster... I assume that you've been approved by James Starkweather or William Moore?"
Captain Vredenburgh sent Arthur to confirm Katie's assignment with Professor Moore and, upon his return, the Captain smiled and responded, "Welcome to the SS Gabrielle, Miss Wright. I believe that you'll find our ship is not only a strong, seaworthy vessel, but also one with comfortable accommodations and an excellent cook. You have my consent to explore the ship. If you have any questions about the Gabrielle, don't hesitate to contact either myself or First Officer Turlow."

"Thank you, Captain," says Katie, returning his handshake with a strong grip. "It's good to meet you. Is there anyone available who can give me a brief tour?"

Re: CHAPTER 5: IC - At Sea
At twenty-one hundred hours on the ninteenth of September in Panama City, Peter Sykes waits for his colleagues to gather outside the train station to begin their evening's adventure. He sits on a dark wooden bench under dim lantern light, smoking a large odious cigar, laughing with a few locals. As each member of the expedition arrives, he offers them a nip from his hip flask: a pleasantly-smooth, slightly-sweet liqueur which quickly warms each individual for the night ahead.
Peter grins and exclaims, "I can't wait to once again meet my Lovely Lolita! It's been a two years--no THREE years!--since I last came to Panama City and I miss her dearly. Our first stop is "El Zorro's", just down the road. You are in for a treat!" He winks slyly at you while drawing on his cigar, the tip glowing red, illuminating his deeply lined face. He slowly blew a stream of smoke from the corner of his mouth, away from you.

"Yes, you'll find First Officer Turlow on the main deck. He will get you oriented and squared away. While you're waiting for him, I recommend that you locate the ship's mess. You can't miss it; just follow the aroma of fresh coffee down the hall. There's always a pot brewing in the Ship's Mess, hot and strong."Mr. Handy wrote:"Thank you, Captain," says Katie, returning his handshake with a strong grip. "It's good to meet you.
