Session Start: Thu Jul 22 21:19:32 1999
* Logging #taw to '#taw.log'
[DeathStar] Time Chart: Less than 12 Hours Later
[DeathStar] Location: Hanger Bay
* Arono sets on a wing of a ship
* Dakota is sittin on a crate near by
* DeathStar runs the single fighters through a checklist
* Paladin walks in
* Garland is standing there in his armor, even though it's ruined anyway, and provides very little protection now.
* Ariel is playing with some metal blob thing called 'Strife'
[Paladin] So, who slept well?
* DeathStar is still hurting from the last few missions
* Dominator looks over some fighters, checking their condition, etc.
*** Ridge (Ridge@gc-digital62.pathway.net) has joined #taw
* Garland walks up to Dom.
[Ridge] (phew....)
[Dominator] Garland?
* Ridge walks into the bay
[Paladin] . . .
[Garland] How goes the checking?
[DeathStar] Alright, it seems the game has gone to a new level folks.  Xevil has launched a counterstrike to Exodus' grabbing Wily's things, in order to slow us down in finding Exodus.
[Dominator] What kind of counterstrike exactly?
[DeathStar] We have reason to believe Crucifixtion is currently looking over the stuff, so that means the things would probably be at the Maverick HQ.  However, we don't know were that is.  So we focus on Xevil's bold attack.
[Dominator] Fine, Garland. Most of them meet up to standards...
[DeathStar] He's launched a fleet of invisible fighters from somewhere in Alien Nation.
[Dakota] you sure it isn't another distraction DS?
[Garland] Good. 6*the right shoulder armor, which is half gone anyway, falls off* Damnit...
[DeathStar] Perhaps, but one we can't back down from. 
[Ridge] yeah really
[DeathStar] Who all can fly?
[Dakota] true...
[Dakota] I can
[Dakota] fighter or mont it don't matter
[DeathStar] Mont would probably be eaten alive.
[Dominator] Invisible fighters? ... I thought you said cloaking devices were too difficult to make
[Garland] I can...[WAR] But not very well.
[Ariel] I can... sorta...
[Paladin] I can, though not in a fighter . . .
[DeathStar] I did, didn't I.  Looks like the aliens are better than we thought.
[Dominator] I can fly fairly well.
[Dominator] I also have experience commanding capital ships
[Ridge] me too
[DeathStar] Well, those who feel lucky, get into a cockpit.  If not, head to the Avenger.
[Ariel] I can fly really well... but landing on the other hand...
[Ariel] Well, I'm almost as bad as Cheryl

* Dominator checks ETA
* DeathStar is at Earth himself
* Dakota arrives with ds
* DeathStar scans for the ships but sees none
* Paladin clutches his seat desperately
* Ridge follows behind the Avenger
[DeathStar] X1: YEEEEHA---now how does that go?
* Ariel hears a noise and notices that Strife is in the cockpit with her
* Dominator runs his own scans
* Garland enters hyper space but over shoots the landing zone by a mile or two.
[DeathStar] ....I see nothing....
* Paladin closes his eyes and breathes deeply
* Arono flys around stupidly with his fighter
[Garland] Comm: Whoops......
* Arono turns upside down

[DeathStar] X1: Thankee
[Dakota] Gah where's azuls when you need him....
[Dominator] NRP: Matter shields or just energy shields?
[Ariel] Off with the sane people
[Dominator] I doubt Azuls could kill three battleships
[DeathStar] I say, let the titans battle it out.  We have more ships here.  They'll deal with them.  I located the base that launced the fighters.  We all board the Avenger and head there
[Dominator] Got it. All Hunters, you heard DS
[Dakota] sounds good
* Arono ok
[Garland] Aye sir.
[Ariel] Aww, and I wanted to go get blasted by the big boys =P
[Ridge] right but we need to live through these 3 first

[Ariel] Just kidding DS, I'm coming in

* Dakota heads for the shuttle before ejecting
* DeathStar activates jetpack and flies towards the Avenger
[Ariel] . . .
* Garland raises his brow, but no one sees it through the hull of his shuttle
[Garland] Meh.

* Dominator goes close to the Avenger (and docks with it temporarily to get in?)

* DeathStar watches Arono fly around in circles
[Blackjack] Good to see everyone's ok...
[DeathStar] Oh for pete sake...
[Blackjack] I think.
* Ariel frowns because she forgot a flight suit
[Dakota] why did you let arono fly a fighter?
[Garland] Oh well... *ejects*
* DeathStar raises ramp
* Blackjack was aboard the Avenger with X1
[DeathStar] I wanted him on the Avenger; he didn't listen.
[Dominator] How well can you fly Blackjack? Well it doesn't matter... Next time make X1 let you fly
[DeathStar] I see BJ and Paladin survived X1's flying.
[Ridge] you coulda ordered him
* Garland isn't wearing a flight suit..... or a space suit... it just... in space. (would kill a human)
[Blackjack] It's a miracle, DS...
[Paladin] I'm gonna hurl
* Ariel goes to tell everyone that, but Strife takes the initive and acts as a temperary one and she ejects too
* Arono flys around the avenger"how do i dock this thing?"
* DeathStar grabs the pilot controls
* Garland suddenly teleports into "his" seat on the avenger
[Dominator] Just eject your fighter and leave it on standby. The Justic 'll pick it up. FLy into the hanger
* Ariel climbs into the avenger
[DeathStar] How much longer is he going to survive out there?
* Dominator sits down at the weapons consol
[Arono] but wount that kill me?
* Blackjack maintains his position at the port weapons
[DeathStar] Alright, here's an idea...you just stay in the fighter.  
* DeathStar flies towards Earth
[Arono] uh....ok
* Ariel * Strife retreats back to Ariel's shoulder
[Dakota] you honestly think he can land that thing ds?
[Dominator] He could escort us. Save time snice he wouldn't have to dock
[Garland] Who me? I held my breath for 20 minutes in space once.... (Session a while ago..... dont remember the #)
[DeathStar] Escort?  Him?  Gimme a break.
* Dominator checks the Avenger's system (it was unharmed, right?)
[Dakota] soo... what are those ships doing outside just sitting there?
[DeathStar] NRP: Almost.
* DeathStar watches the six battle ships pound each other
* Ridge sits down
* DeathStar enters the Earth's atmosphere and flies towards Ireland
* Dominator checks the sensors to see their conditions (basically to see who's winning0
* Garland runs up to the front to watch the battle too
[DeathStar] NRP: The Hunters
* Ariel pats Strife affectionately and takes her usual sear
[Garland] NRP.. or I can see the earth , that's fine
[Dakota] Hey ds should i call... meh n/m he wouldn't fit probably
* DeathStar flies over Ireland, and soon a huge base complex can barely be seen, hidden below
[DeathStar] There's Xevil's little Fighter Complex.
[Dominator] Most likely heavily guarded
[Blackjack] And our target...
* DeathStar brings the Avenger down outside it.
[Dakota] oooo
[Dominator] From the size of it there could be alot of fighters in there
[Garland] NRP: X1: Tis the luck of the irish!
[Dakota] maybe arono could figure out how to shoot missiles at it?
[DeathStar] Dominator's right.  Isn't that just make us all happy?
[Dominator] Funny no fighters intercepted us...
[Blackjack] Arono? I doubt it.
* Arono almost crashes into the swooshes up just missing it
[Blackjack] What did I tell ya...
[Dominator] Why do I feel like this might be a trap orchastrated by Xevil?
[DeathStar] .....Think maybe he could hit those trees over there?
[Blackjack] Because it's obvious?
[DeathStar] Maybe because it is?
[Dominator] That was probably why...
[Garland] We already know it's always a trap.
[Paladin] So, we gonna walk right into this one just like last time?
[DeathStar] Alright, normal mission objectives: go to core, see core, put mines on core, run from core, core explodes. Any questions?
[Blackjack] Yeah. Who comes up with such incredible plans?
[Garland] That's what we did last time....
[DeathStar] X1: I do dammit!
[Blackjack] Figured.
[Garland] And look what it got us.
[Dominator] Well, not always... There was the time when we went to save the city... no that was a trap... Okay, when we found the strange alien ship over the wastelands... er... trap too... When we went to the sta-... You know, you';re right
[Garland] Well orders are orders.
* Garland gets ready
[Blackjack] Whether we die or not...
[DeathStar] Boy, Dom's on a roll with the sarcasim...
* Blackjack shrugs
[Dakota] (another well made plan...)
[DeathStar] Alright, anyone ELSE have a better idea?
[Blackjack] Nope. Let's get this done.
[Dominator] Not really... Has Arono landed yet?
* Garland wonders why Dom
[DeathStar] No, he's still going at it...
[Paladin] Send an airstrike?
* Dominator mutters something
[Garland] 's acting with sarcasm so muc
[Dakota] have arono Kamakazi the base?
[Blackjack] Knowing Arono, he'll do the work by crashing into the place...
[DeathStar] That would be nice, but it would probably be blown up by invisible fighters.
[Garland] NRP: DAMN ENTER KEY!!!
[Dominator] They have more than enough fighters to intercept a strike
* Arono flys up and down up and down
[Arono] how do i get outa this thing?
[Ridge] oy arono....
[Paladin] But not enough to intercept us?
* DeathStar presses comm button
[Dominator] Lets get going... We're giving them a chance to prepare for us
[Blackjack] Comm] You could try landing for starters...
[DeathStar] Hit that red flashing button
[Ridge] um...
* DeathStar just told him to hit self-destruct
* Dominator glances at DS
[Dakota] NO ARONO!
[Arono] ?
[Dominator] You realize that would destroy us too...
* DeathStar shrugs
[Dakota] Can you fire at the base... *waits for criticizm
[Ridge] Dak you moron!
* DeathStar decides to give it
[DeathStar] Him?
[DeathStar] Are you out of your MIND?
* DeathStar lowers the ramp
[Garland] Dakota, they probably have sheilds.
[Dakota] once in a while....
* Garland jumps out
[Dakota] true
* DeathStar walks out
[Ariel] You can fly around in circles until you run out of fuel
[Blackjack] Ah, who cares. Let's just get in there, do our job, and get out.
* Dominator charges weapons
[Dakota] LAND FOR crying out loud Arono
* Dominator follows DS
* Ariel gets out
* Dakota walks
* Ridge goes behind the group as usuall
* Blackjack jogs out
[DeathStar] Boy, this is nice and...quiet...
* Arono skinds the ground and crashes.....not realy violently,and stops bye the hunters
* DeathStar sees that the land is nicely mowed.
[Blackjack] Quiet... why is it that silence is never golden...
* Arono jumps out
[Dakota] well any landing you can walk away from....
[Garland] They.. mow the lawn..?
[Arono] that was awsome!
* DeathStar the fighter explodes
[DeathStar] GAH!
[Blackjack] Nice landing, Arono...
[Ridge] ...
* Blackjack mutters something about wishing the landing had been a little worse
[Ridge] !
[Paladin] Cuz there are probably motion sensors, infared scanners, and all sorts of early warning systems all over this place
[Garland] NRP: THE CADS! LANDSCAPING CADS!
[Dominator] ....!
* Arono looks at the fighter
[DeathStar] .....
[DeathStar] Lets...go....
[Dakota] well at least he walked away...
[Ridge] um... yeah
* Blackjack laughs at a private joke
[Ariel] And landing you can walk away from is a good landing eh?
[DeathStar] What a ham..
* Ariel sighs
[Blackjack] Let's get this over with...
* DeathStar walks across the lawn.
[Dakota] or is it a turkey? (if)
* Dominator walks by DS going slightly faster
[DeathStar] I personally thought it was a cow....
* Blackjack plays cautious as he follows DS, rifle at the ready
* Arono fallows
[Ridge] nah it was pork the enitre time...
[DeathStar] The smell of fresh cut grass.
[Blackjack] NRP: ...I knew that.
[DeathStar] NRP: Heh.
[Paladin] Is this some sort of code I don't know?
[Dakota] nah paladin this is the norm....
[Garland] Um.... Kel?
* DeathStar keeps walking across the...uh...grass
* Dominator considers walking across the grass
* Ariel continues walking
* Garland looks around
[Dakota] (heh)
[Blackjack] NRP: I think everyone will have a different view of the grass from now on
* Dominator and not just the grass, THE grass
* Garland flies over the grass (not touching it)
* Blackjack glances around as we walks, watching the grass
[Paladin] NRP: The grass . . . that TIME FORGOT!
* Ridge looks at the grass suspiciously

[Blackjack] Dammit... gotta watch my step.
[Dakota] oy 
* Dominator follows DS
* Blackjack looks back where he tripped and shudders for some reason
* Dakota hovers over the grass
[DeathStar] Xevil: I have to say, you people are quiet amusing....
* Ariel makes sure she doesn't stand on the welcome mat
[Paladin] NRP: SOme sort of proto-grass?  With abilities far beyond that of normal grass?
[Garland] NRP: THAT'S one for the funnies
[Dominator] NRP: *is laughing alot*

[Dakota] NRP: *so am I i can't stop...
[Paladin] NRP:  I just like to make NRP msgs
[Blackjack] NRP: *snickers* Even Xevil!
* DeathStar blinks and laughs too
[Garland] Xevil? We have to know... is your grass evil too?
* Dominator glances at DS
* Blackjack raises an eyebrow and snickers
[DeathStar] Xevil: *is too busy laughing to respond*
[Ridge] Don't give him ideas DS
* Ariel checks the welcome mat for a trap door
[Garland] I ASKED YOU A QUESTION!!
* DeathStar stops
[Dakota] um Xevil is going insane...
[Paladin] What, you think he'll begin to take over the world with evil grass?
[Dominator] Possibly...
[Paladin] The wacky weed?
[Ariel] It's possible
[DeathStar] I don't like his laugh....
[Dakota] grass covers the ground...
*** Blackjack has quit IRC (Connection reset by peer)
[Dakota] meh enough about gras
[Garland] *sighs* Our arch foe for the day is an idiot.....
[Dominator] ... *tenses up, listening better* Neither do I..
[DeathStar] Xevil: Ooooo, you foolish Earthlings...it'll be so easy to crush you....we'll meet soon...
[Dominator] NRP: Question is this a booming voice version of Xevil, or him in person?
[Ariel] NRP: The grass has already taken over the world!  We just haven't realized it!
[DeathStar] NR{: Booming Oz version
[Dominator] NRP: See what happens when you make us take a great BJ?
[Dakota] NRP: *throws crab grass at Xevil
[Paladin] NRP: Hmm, grass shuns me for some reason . . . I am the anti-grass
[Dominator] NRP: great=break
[Ariel] NRP: It's everywhere!  You can't stop it!
[Garland] NRP: ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS CHOSEN PEOPLE.....

[Ariel] NRP: Ahhhhhhhh! *runs in terror*
[Dakota] NRP no kidding
[Arono] NRP:huhuhuhuhuhuh....cool...huhuhuhuhuhu
[Garland] NRP: like "no laughing matter"
[DeathStar] NRP: Should we...like save the world?
[Dominator] NRP: *dubs this session "NRP" as it has more NRPs than RPs*. Lets just forget the "NRP" prefix, and title anything related the RPGing "RP: "
[Paladin] NRP: Keep the streak alive!
* Dominator glances at the surroundings
* DeathStar steps into the hallway.
[Dakota] NRP YEAH!
[Ariel] NRP: Save the world? What are you thinking?!  There's grass!
* Dakota follows ds
* Paladin does something rpgish
* Ridge follows behind equiping the rig...
[Garland] Hey Xevil! Do we have to go through your base just to find you, or are you just gonna come out and save every one some time?
* Ariel steps over the trapdoor under the welcome mat and follows Dak
[DeathStar] Okay, I was jus thinking some weird thoughts here....and now my brain is slow.
[Paladin] NRP: Upgrade to a pentium III
[Dominator] ... Lets consintrate on the task at hand
* Arono walks in
[Garland] NRP: nono, those have goverment monitoring.
[DeathStar] Alright, we need to blow this base up so they can't launch anymore fighters.
[Garland] NRP: *watches X1 talk to the grass*
[Dominator] Right... Standard procedure? AKA head to either the control room or the engine core? Since this is a base, I presume it's the ocntorl room
[Ariel] Spring a trap...
[Paladin] Unless there's a generator . . .
[DeathStar] Lets do the Control room.  The Core is like always a trap these days
[Ariel] Barely get out with our lives...
[Dakota] then we go to the core anyway...
[Ariel] And get Xevil ticked off.
[DeathStar] Xevil can kiss my ass.
[Paladin] He's so cute when he's all furious.
[Ridge] and meet azuls...
[DeathStar] Paldin...you scare me.
[Garland] Isn't he already ticked? (I mean we walked on his [gr]ass!
[Paladin] Sorry, I'm in a weird mood for some reason
[Ariel] Yeah, sounds about right... *OOCLY checks the script*
* Dominator starts forward ignoring all the conversation
* DeathStar spikes fly at dominator
* Dominator ducks barely in time
[Dominator] ...!
[Ridge] whoa!
[Ariel] Wow... that's original...
* Ridge hits the deck
[DeathStar] You know, that spikes gimick is getting old in these bases run by Xevil
[Paladin] NRP: More mystery spikes!  Maybe they'll kill the grass . . .
[Garland] NRP: ZARDOZ COULD HAVE STOPPED THAT!
* Arono looks at the same spikes that flew at him yesterday
[Dominator] Remind me to let someone else go first next time
* DeathStar walks down the hallway, snickering
* Dominator cautiously continues forward
[Ridge] uh heh
* Ariel notices that they are the EXACT same spikes from the other base
* Ridge follows
[Garland] Ugh.... can't he use something new? Like lava pits, or even some big robots?
* Dakota continues on
* Ariel falls in beside Dak
* Arono fallows like evryone else
[Paladin] Big robots . . . like that spider bot?
* Garland follows closely
[DeathStar] How about a Garland clone?
[Dakota] or aligators under draw ..... wait wrong time period
[Paladin] Or the skull bot
[Dominator] NRP: Uh guys....
[Ridge] Or wily himself...
[Garland] ....... What? How would he do that?
[Dominator] Or an... *shudders*... X1 clone
[Ariel] Or some alien or maverick boss...
[DeathStar] That would be the end of us
[Ridge] Perish that thought Dom
[Garland] Why's that?
[Dakota] where is x1 anyway?
[Ariel] Or even some cannon fodder
[DeathStar] You know, if we keep this up, we'll probably be kicked out of the base.
* Dominator looks to see where they are
* DeathStar same hallway, nearing the Control Room door
* Paladin carefully looks for grass
[Ariel] I don't think Xevil takes well to criticizing
[Dominator] No guards yet... *draws Rune Sword*
[Ariel] He might go crying to his mommy
[DeathStar] I wonder why....
[Garland] Nah, I'm pretty sure Xevil's hyped for a breif battle.
* Garland pulls out the gospel
* DeathStar reaches the door
[Ridge] he probably has some giant robot he's sure will kill us all....
* Arono draws crossbow and loads a lazer tiped arrow
[Ariel] And we'll blow it to pieces
* Ariel sighs
[Garland] No, that was last time.
[Ariel] Same old, same old...
[Ridge] that's my point
[Ridge] He's not original
[Dakota] sometimes
* DeathStar sees BJ is pretty quiet during all this
[Paladin] Maybe he'll try something differant?  Like killing us?
[Garland] Now I think it's Him with a really big gun.
* Dakota notices bj has disapeared
* DeathStar BJ bonks Dakota
[Ridge] maybe....
[Garland] This tiem I think.
[Dakota] ouf sorry i didn't see y
[Dakota] ya
* Ariel giggles
[Slasher_Away] NRP:Boohoo
* DeathStar opens the door and steps into a huge circle room
[DeathStar] ...Hmmmmm...
* Dominator looks around
* Dakota walks in
* Ridge follows
[Garland] Hmm.. *looks at the room*
[Ariel] Hello?  Anybody hooome?
[Arono] circle?
* DeathStar sees door on other side and walks towards it
[Paladin] Hmm, Xevil has a nice sense of aesthetics
[Arono] this is new
[Dakota] let's see
[Ridge] want me to hack in DS?
[Ariel] The door was open, so we just let ourselves in...
[DeathStar] Hack in what?
[Ridge] computers when we find them
* Garland goes up to the door
[DeathStar] IF we find them.
* Dakota follows
[Ridge] right
* DeathStar suddenly all the Hunters are in the room and the other door locks itself
[DeathStar] What the?!
[DeathStar] *spins around*
[Ariel] Wow... a trap
[Paladin] A trap . . .
