Joker
Joker taps and swipes, storing this new data in the cloud, then turns to Stanton. You saved my friend's life tonight. Thank you. I cannot repay what you did- but I am ready to help, if you need something.

Roy thanks the ghost marshall's ghost before it is too late "Thank you Marshall. I am sorry that we did not heed your advice fast enough to avoid this." turning to Jeniveve "Thank you, for your help Jeniveve." then finally to Mac "I'm glad you're alright Mac. I was getting really worried." and then to Joker "Whatever you did Joker thank you it really helped."

Mac

"Thanks Roy, as always a group effort."

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Looking around, Lionel counsels a hasty exit. Uh, maybe we should get out, now, if you're good to go Mac. Jeniveve, we'll drop you off if you're ready. Looking at the ghost of her grandfather, he continues, If you want to stay a while longer, though, I understand

Mac

"I am good to go, but probably shouldn't be driving."

Roy nods his head agreeing to leave and starts towards the Jeep helping Jeniveve if she needs the assistance.

Dark, Cool.

Jeniveve looks towards both Roy & Lionel as they speak to her and smiles that oddly knowing smile that was so creepy. We're not done yet, thank you... she holds her finger up to wait.

Drake Harris growls and goes for his gun. How about out-shoot!

Marshall Reeves already has a bead on him. He fires the long barreled gun and the world seems to stand still for a moment as thunder booms in and around the tavern and a flash of what could only be described as hell-fire explodes forth as a bullet screams into the ghost of Drake Harris. The ghost screams as time slams back into the correct current and you watch him go up in ashes as the bullet wound erupts and quickly begins consuming him until there is nothing left a short second later but an old rusted revolver, a bag of silver dollars, and the shot glass he was holding.

The Marshall growls lowly and twirls the pistol before putting it back into the holster at his hip where the hellish glow is extinguished. He sighs and nods, then looks over at the ghostbusters and holds up a hand. Stay right there... you're not excused and we have just enough time...

Stanton smiles a little at that and nods. I am ready.

Marshall Reeves takes in a deep breath and the world holds still a moment until he lets it out and everything seems to go past them in fast forward as their vision blurs. When everything finally stops, they are no longer in the tavern, but...

Mac

Mac says in a very slurred and wobbly manner, "We were trying to help your honor."

Edited for being drunk.

Rex wrote: ↑Mon Jul 18, 2022 4:04 pm Mac

"It wasn't intentional your honor. There are some serious problems in the town being caused by the supernatural, possibly even a demon and we are trying to figure out a way to stop the demon. We certainly didn't mean to cause any additional problems anywhere."

Remember you're drunk

Roy sighs "We were trying to help your honor, we did not mean to cause any harm we were but trying to go good for the people by getting rid of the ghosts that were disturbing the peace. Honest we tried to leave but one of the spirits of ill nature took control over our friend here. Thankfully we found someone to help remove the curse so that the good Marshall could do what he does best."

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Yeah, what they said. Our job is to...bust...ghosts- trap and destroy harmful spirits. There's a lot of ghosts in this area- well, obviously you know that. There's plenty of bad things in town, and our job is to get rid of them, helping the living. And the dead, too! We've helped ghosts who were being attacked by evil, stronger ghosts, draining them of their energy. We've helped ghosts finish things they couldn't do in life so they could rest peacefully. So, yeah, maybe we've caused some disruption. But we're helping, so I'm gonna keep doing it. Your honor.

Mac

"Yup, Burp."

"Yup, Burp."

The Judge looks over you all and then eyes Jeniveve and Stanton And the two of you have caused more than enough grief for this court. But with the laws being what they are and the jurisdictions as they are drawn, you are dismissed but don't give me reason to put a warrant on you, Miss. Joliet.

Stanton smiles and looks at his so many greats granddaughter before closing his eyes and disappearing in an upward cascade of white lights through the ceiling while Jeniveve herself disappears at a wave of Marshall Reeves's hand.

The sun was growing brighter through the courtroom windows as Judge Parker addressed you and everyone inside began to look less substantial than they did on your entrance. The court will table this discussion for a future date as the time for night court draws to a close. You are all required to answer a summons when given under penalty of contempt. he bangs the gavel and rises. The gavel blow reverberates through the old courtroom and feels like a punch in the gut as all the ghost before you disappear and you are standing in a very ordinary looking room once more, all your PKE equipment still registers high readings but are no longer off the charts like they were when you appeared here.

Joker
Joker hasn't spoken- he's too gorked out by the whole process. He taps a few icons on his phone, trying to make sense of the readings.
When he looks up, he's obviously irritated and worried. Wonderful. Now we've got Q judging us...

Roy having been through a new experience sighs "Well that was something. Ghost court, new experiences every day in this job."

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Lionel looks to see if Jeniveve is still there, or if she really disappeared when the judge dismissed her. If not there, he will head outside and try to spot her.

Sunrise, Cool.

Jeniveve was indeed outside at the foot of the stairs, her face turned towards the rising sun. She turned her head as the courthouse doors opened. Someone there? Apparently, she really was dismissed. After they exit the courtroom, the doors slam shut and there is a heavy echoing clank as the old oak and iron doors lock behind them.

Jeniveve nods. I'll take that ride home now, please.


Feel free to post any other comments or actions from your characters here if you feel it necessary. But I am going to begin wrapping this up.
Sorry it took so long, this summer has been a busy one.

We will be going back to the Firehouse thread for anything after this scene.

Mac

"Thanks for the help Jeniveve, I wasn't sure if I was going to make it for a bit there."

Roy to Jeniveve "Yes it is us Jeniveve. Apparently the spirits have more control over the living than I previously thought." to Mac "You and me both Mac. I was certain this was going to end worse off and that is why I felt like we needed all the help we could get. So I'm very glad Jeniveve was able to help us."
