Happy Hunter Adventures: updated

The Chocolate Bane drifted through space; it was carrying cargo to a nearby planet. The Chocolate Bane was in the possession of an adventurer named Happy Hunter and a reptilian creature named Dino.
Dino was about the size of a small velociraptor, his scales were a dark tan with green stripes near the top. Although he was not a humanoid he got along fine in a humanoid world, in fact he even piloted the ship! They had customized the control room so that it was comfortable for him. Instead of a pilot's seat there was a bicycle seat and to large pedals on the floor, the wheel and control panel or dashboard slid forward and locked in so Dino’s small arms could reach it.
All of a sudden another ship sped up behind them, way over the speed limit up. It was a small attack ship with the words Dark Suns written on it.
“Aw great! Some dumbass who thinks he a badass just waiting for someone to give him a ticket.” grumbled Dino.
Without a warning the attack ship opened fire. This outburst took our reptilian friend completely by surprise, he tried to swerve out of the line of fire, but was not altogether successful. Happy Hunter was awoken from his dream about unicorns, pixies, and leprechauns having an epic battle over a rainbow, started run quickly down that led to the control room. Happy Hunter had almost shoulder length brown hair. He was wearing his usual clothing a white button down short sleeved shirt, with a light tan jacket full over but not buttoned. He put on his gun bullet and pulled his bullet belt over his, then he walked into control room.
“What the heck was that?” he demanded loudly.
“Someone’s practicing target shooting” Even in high stress situations Dino could always come up with a humorous reply.
“Are we damaged badly?” Happy fell backward and smacked into the wall.
“Yup, appears so let out the smoke screen so we might be able to crash land and not explode in midair.”
“Where are we going down?” questioned HH ignoring Dino’s remark, he pressed a button letting out gas so the attacker couldn’t see to shoot at them.
“We might be able to make it to that planet” pointing at a screen a similar to an GPS .
“What level?”
“3”Answered Dino glumly
The levels Happy referred to were a way of classifying what “age” it was in 7 was current times. A ships could not land on a planet below level 5 unless it was an absolute emergency. The A.P. (Allegiance of planets) had made up this way of classifying and protecting “young” planets, if the A.P.’s rule were broken you’d be lucky to be able to say “bob's your uncle” before you were silenced permanently.
With this in mind Dino aimed for a forest near a small town. Happy Hunter went to the weapons closet. He took his ray gun out and put it in his holster, he took a shotgun and slung it over his shoulder, then he took his sword in its sheath and attached it to his bullet belt. He look longingly at the machine guns.
“Just the essentials no Advanced Assault Rifles, no laser snipers or any of that” Warned Dino “I’ll take my Classic Sniper”
They started to come through the atmosphere.
“Goodbye civilization,” Whimpered Dino.
They hit the ground. About five minute passed before Happy pointed out they were not dead. HH opened the door and walked out Dino followed him. They had landed in a dense forest, nothing but trees and leaves were visible.
“Location, location! We’re stuck out here with little food or water, no transport and we don’t know where the nearest village is! Couldn't have picked a better spot!” Exclaimed the very unhappy Hunter
“Maybe they could give us a ride!” pointing behind. Looking Happy saw an airship flying low, maybe to pick them up. Happy had heard of airships before, he had toured one before at The Steampunk Museum of History, but he had never really seen one in action.
“Lets steal their ship!” Suggested the now very Happy Hunter
“Brilliant! First thing make friends with the natives!” Exclaimed Dino with a hint of sarcasm!
The airship landed right in front of them. A large door folded down and a group of seven got out, and pointed guns at them. Their weapons were cowboy weapons.
A person who appeared to be the leader started to talk “Hello Alien! Welcome to nova! You give us your spaceship and-”
“Drop your weapons now or i’ll drop you all with a single shot.” cut in Happy briskly fingering his raygun. Immediately all the men dropped their weapons.
DIno went inside the airship and located the prisons cells. The unimpressive seven were then locked up in the cells.
Happy Hunter and Dino then went to the top deck to figure out how work the ship. It was controlled by a steam engine that let hot air into three tubes. Two of the tube went to propellers and the other went to the large balloon that lifted the ship.
The two partners in crime shoveled coal into the engine. And they were off!


After they had gotten high into the clouds the captives were let out and Happy asked them some questions about them and their planet.
As it turned out the men they had captured were small time pirates trying get a breakthrough in the business by capturing aliens and using the ET’s technologically advanced weapons they would obliterate any rivalry opposition. With further interrogation into the planet history and government type, Dino wrote this in his journal/autobiography:
In spite of my incredible aviationary skills, we have been shot destroyed another ship yet another ship (The 7th during our partnership). This time our maroon may be more permanent were forced the land on a level 4 planet after being shot at by a ship called the Dark sun. After crashing, Happy immediately to would ingratiate himself by stealing a rudimentary air traveling vehicle called an air ship.
From the incompetent members of the le pet en colère (a name meaning the angry fart, i doubt the person that name the ship knew that!) i managed to learn some things about this planets geography and government system(s).
This planet is not just average “crash land planet” (trust my thanks to Happy's life choices i’m an expert!) but has a singular type of terrain, this “tera” has floating mountains! and not just a small cluster but large deposits all over!
Because of this they’re way of travel is mostly aerial; they ride pegasi, move large groups in pegasus pulled air balloons, steam propelled balloons ranging from small ones with one one balloon and a small engine too large titanics with as many as 20 balloons these are usually for aircraft carriers.
The planet anarchist. There are lots of pirates, some of the rich ones start empire. Happy hope to start a gang of pirates and maybe start an empire too. I must be off, we are near a small city and hope to land.

About three years later.
Happy and Dino had by now built a small fleet of 8 airships. They were currently working as privateteirs. Their current job was to protect a train from raidings and attacks. The train was going over a long bridge between two (floating) mountains. When the got to the train Happy looked at the roof of all the cars with a telescope.
“We've got red on that car there” Captain Hunter pointed to a car which was near the front and was already on the bridge, 10 people were on the roof. “I’ll take 5 of you, Dino shoot out the zip line 2 cars behind”
The airship flew about 500 feet away from the train, this meant that all of them could at once leaving a 10 foot gap. The ship was there fastest and easily matched the trains speed. Dino fired the grapple, it attached to the train. Happy grabbed a (rollything) and rolled off. The other five followed every 100 feet. Happy Hunter was about to land on the train, when he suddenly found himself /backwards, he let go of his roller and started to climb up the rope, he managed to grab onto the dart that was hold the line and pull himself up. He stood up and looked for the raiders, there were none to be seen. All of a sudden a person in a black trench coat landed right in front of him, this figure pulled out a machine pistol (ilegal on level 4 planets), and opened fire. Happy stepped to one side and drew his dual dao swords and he blocked the bullets
1..2..3 magazine was empty happy lunged and knocked the gun out of this assassins hand. The trenched assassin leaped over Happy and drew his black tactical sword, lunged and with quick intricate maneuvers knocked both swords out of Happy hands and land him on his back then this cloaked enigma leaped of the train. As if that wasn't enough the train exploded!
