<Ire> Time chart: May 23rd, 2222
<Ire> Location: Building 38
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: You hit on Selphie, I will purposely bring back Unoria to kick your ass!
<Ire> GM: Morning time.
* Ire sits in the lobby, writing out somethings. He's back in uniform.
* Firebird drives his fist into the trainer's stomach, sending it crashing backwards into the wall. It fades out as Firebird ducks the kick from the trainer behind him. He delivers a straight kick backwards, which crashes through its stomach. It fades out, leaving Firebird standing in the awkward stance.
* Selphie`Cao walks along the street in search of her new 'home'.
<Firebird> Urrgh... not fast enough. Three this time.
* Silouette sits quietly in the lounge, sipping her tea.
* Selphie`Cao sees the enterence and begins to walk towards it.
* Ire ignores the babbling of the holovid.
* Firebird goes into a fighting stance as three new trainers appear. Not waiting, he throws himself at the first. He plants his fist in its face, then ignites the other hand's claw and slices its head off.
* Firebird lies flat as trainer #2 swings a roundhouse kick in his direction, and spins upward in a helicopter kick. He flips to his feet and slashes across the trainer's chest with the already activated claw, then whips out a gun and blasts trainer #3 before it can act. All three trainers disappear.
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: there a gate or any security I gotta go through?
<Ire> NRP: No gate. Security, though.
* Firebird pants heavily for a moment
* Selphie`Cao reaches the men in uniform, she looks at them, then smiles and waves.
<Ire> Security: ...
* Firebird rubs the bridge of his nose and smirks, replacing his weapons
<Vile> NRP: SHE'S GOT A GUN! *blam blam blam* "..It's a purse!" "...She shot at me, you all saw it! I didnt have a choice!"
<Firebird> Pitiful. How about more of a challenge next time?
<Selphie`Cao> Hiya!
* Firebird walks out and heads for Building 38
<Ire> Security: ...
<Silouette> NRP: They're english guards!
<Selphie`Cao> ... Ummm, Do you know where I can find Ire?
<Ire> Security: ... Business?
* Ire glances up briefly at the holovid, some morning talk show on.
<Selphie`Cao> Well, I'm supposed to be joining his team today, mate!
<Ire> Security: Do you have identification and papers verifying this?
* Firebird glances at the entrance and the goings-on there as he passes it
* Silouette sips her tea quietly and slowly, not seeming to be doing much of anything else
<Selphie`Cao> I know the buggers are around here somewhere! *ruffles through her bag* Ah yes, here they are. Here you go, mate!
<Ire> Security: *check them out*
<Ire> Security Officer 1: *snort* She's joining that paranormal unit.
<Ire> Security Officer 2: Heh, maybe she'll meet some ghosts with tentacles.
<Selphie`Cao> Beg your pardon?
<Ire> Security Officer 1: I don't know, she might enjoy it.
<Ire> Security Officer 2: True
<Firebird> *hesitates* .oO{Where do I know here from...?}
<Ire> Security Officer 1: Heh heh heh. Go on in. The unit is located in Building 38
<Selphie`Cao> .... Bloody 'ell. Well, thank ya mates. Have yourselves a jolly good day!
<Firebird> *looks briefly at Selphie, then towards Building 38* <...I'm headed there. Follow me.>
* Firebird walks towards 38, ignoring Selphie completely
* Selphie`Cao picks up her bags, looks around for a moment then slowly beads towards building 38.
* Ire reaches over and grabs a glass of alcohol, sipping it as he gives the holovid a moments glance, then goes back to writing.
* Selphie`Cao walks up to the door of Building 38. Not exactly sure what to do, she knocks.
* Firebird walks in, leaving the door open
* Selphie`Cao blinks at Firebird as he walks in. " 'scuse me sir?"
<Firebird> *stops, but doesn't look back* <...Yes?>
* Ire leans back in his chair, finishing his report. He closes the folder and flops it on a glass table next to him. He sips more of his drink.
<Selphie`Cao> Was wondering if you could direct me to the chap they call 'Ire'. I'm supposed ta be reportin' to 'im. I'm new yah see mate.
* Ire glances over the chair at FB and the girl
<Ire> ...
<Firebird> *points at Ire* <You found him.>
* Ire turns back to watch the boring talkshow.
* Firebird heads for the stairs
<Selphie`Cao> To Firebird: <Glad I'm not the only one here.>
* Silouette doesn't look over. Just sips her tea, not looking at anything
* Selphie`Cao peaks in and spots Ire, she then steps in. " 'Ello mate!"
* Firebird ignores everyone and heads upstairs
* Ire grunts.
* Selphie`Cao holds her hand out. "Me names Selphie. I guess I'm yer newest recruit!"
<Ire> ...
* Ire eyes the hand, then her, then turns back to the holovid
<Ire> That's nice.
* Selphie`Cao blinks, then lowers her hand slowly.
<Selphie`Cao> ... Did I come at a bad time, sir?
<Ire> Sure did.
* Firebird rips a sign proclaiming that the room is "Dahok's Love Pad" off of the door, rips it to shreds, and walks into his room
<Selphie`Cao> .. Oh, I'm sorry sir. If I had of known.. *trails off*
<Ire> Eh.
* Ire finishes his glass of alcohol and sets it on the glass.
* Ire fishes out a key and throws it at her.
<Firebird> NRP: And it's PURE alcohol, too.
<Ire> You have Room 4
<Firebird> NRP: None of that wussy beer crap.
<Ire> To yourself.
* Selphie`Cao catches it with her left hand.
* Firebird leaves the door open and flops on his bed
<Selphie`Cao> Aight. And where might that be?
* Ire jerks a thumb upward, eyeing the holovid.
<Silouette> ......
<Selphie`Cao> Oh, I see. Well, thank yah!
* Selphie`Cao smile fades from her face as she walks upstairs with key in one hand and her single bag in the other.
* Ire glances briefly at Silouette.
* Silouette shrugs a little and sips her tea
* Ire goes back to watching the holovid, though it's obvious he's not really paying attention.
* Selphie`Cao eyes her room as she opens it slowly. She walks in and lays her bag down on her bed.
<Vile> *The Holovid screen suddenly goes dark, but a familiar voice chimes in thru the black, "Tired of finding nothing really good to want? Nothing that REALLY gets you going? Well prepare yourselfs, Tv Land...for.." *The screen goes green, then red letters appears, "Pain Tv."
<Vile> NRP: er watch
* Firebird blinks as his own TV switches to the same thing
<Firebird> NRP: Holovid. It's late.
* Ire raises his eyebrow
* Firebird leaps out of bed and pops off four shots through the holovid's image
* Ire eyes the roof as he hears shooting.
<Vile> *The screen changes to an anchorman's desk, where Ghoul sits, leaning back and feet propped up on the desk itself, "Greetings all, and welcome to Pain Tv. Ghoul here, your host for todays session. Reality shows are nothing new, we all know them...but what about a reality show that made YOU chose who lives and dies...to be God, in other words? You like?"
*** Vile is now known as Ghoul
* Firebird stares over the barrels of his guns at the vid
* Ire frowns as Ghol appears on the television. Infact, his teeth grind.
* Silouette calmly puts her tea cup down.
* Ghoul hops off the chair, the camera pannings to follow him as circles the desk and stands next to a young blonde woman, tied and gagged to a rolling chair. Tears drip down her face, "Tv land, meet Julie. Julie? Tv Land."
* Ire glances as his comm. is already beeping. He begins to speak quietly into it.
* Firebird begins shuddering
* Selphie`Cao hears the loud shots, but doesn't flinch. " That bloody guy downstairs was one big wanka... Crist Almighty..."
* Ghoul pats the woman on the head, "Julie here is a virgo, likes mexican good and enjoys long walks on the beach. She's also the next victum of our..." *His voice fades, replaced by a booming one* "WHEEL OF PAAAAAIN.."
* Ire clicks his comm. off as he eyes Ghoul's newest idea of entertainment.
* Ghoul pulls a throwing knife the shealth on the small of his back, and gestures off screen. The camera pans, and a large wheel is there with about 20 or so methods of mutilation, torture and death.
<Ghoul> *The camera then pans back to Ghoul as he continues, "So what will it be, folks? Judging by the ratings I'm seeing here, you all are JUST loving this...what do you YOU want to see? Mutilation? Torture? Straight up death? I do it all, folks - and make a hell of Latte, at that."
*** Firebird has quit IRC (Ping timeout)
* Ire taps the intercomm.
<Ire> All officers, report to the lobby.
<Selphie`Cao> ... Well, guess that's me now! *steps out of her room and locks the door, and walks down the stairs.
* Ire is seen sitting there, watching TV.
* Ghoul tilts his mask head, "Or maybe we'll just let the wheel decide..." *With a flick of his wrist, he hurls the throwing knife. The camera whirls around to follow it, stopping on the Wheel of Pain. It zooms in, to see the knife wedged in between Decapitation, and Disembowlment - right on the block marked Blood Drain.*
* Selphie`Cao watches from afar, the holovid.
<Ire> I have some people tracing the signal to it's origin. I should know in a moment.
* Ghoul laughs, and performs a cartwheel back to the desk, leaping atop it. The camera returns to him, "Well folks, the wheel has spoken! While we set Julie up, here, I'll return you to your regularly scheduled program. We'll be RIGHT back! Toodles!" *The screen returns to the talk show*
*** Firebird has joined #taw
*** ChanServ sets mode: +o Firebird
* Ire watches the normal talk show now on.
* Firebird continues staring at the screen despite the fact that the talk show has returned. He shakes his head quickly and runs downstairs.
<Silouette> ......... *sits looking straight ahead*
<Selphie`Cao> .. Who the 'ell was that freak?
<Ghoul> *Indeed, Ire's boys would latch onto the signal - the origin is the Paramount Films building. A highrise building, with multiple studios.*
<Ire> Ghoul. Our mission orders are to bring him in alive.
<Ire> The origin is at Paramount Films building. We'll find Ghoul there, if we're lucky.
<Firebird> *hears Ire's comments on Ghoul* <But it's becoming evident we may have to take him down to bring him in...>
<Ire> As long as we bring him in alive, I don't care how well off he is.
<Ghoul> *The screen suddenly changes back to Ghoul at the desk, "Well folks, that didnt take as long as we thought it would..but the results speak for themselves, I think.." *He gestures off camera, which slowly begins to pan away from the desk*
* Ire speaks into his comm., getting a van sent over.
* Firebird nearly whips out his guns again, but stops before he can get them out of the holsters. He slowly moves back to a normal standing position.
* Selphie`Cao turns to Firebird for a moment. "Yah know mate. Yah look kinda familiar."
<Ghoul> *The sound cuts off as it settles on Julie - completely naked now, but still strapped to the chair. Her body has been impaled by dozens of items looked to have been scrounged from just about anywhere - forks, knives, spoons, broken peices of microphones, pens, pencils, and glass. She's screaming and crying, hence why the sound is off. Blood flows from the wounds in torrents*
* Firebird forces himself to look away
<Firebird> Tell me again why we want him alive, Lieutenant.
* Ire stares emotionlessly at the screen, a flicker of guilt on his face.
<Silouette> ...maybe I should cut off a limb or two on the way in...
<Ire> If we don't, our unit is permenantly done.
<Ghoul> *The Camera is in a fixed position on her, and everyonce and while Ghoul will enter from the left, doing a cartwheel and waving, then vanishing out the right side. Then, he's back - pretending to be paddling a canoe as he goes.*
<Firebird> .oO{Argh... this is all my fault...}
* Ire turns from the holovid, lowering his head enough that his expression is hidden. He walks outside and to the van, which is pulling up. He opens the door, throws out the stoned teenager, and gets in, flipping on the holovid inside it.
<Selphie`Cao> BLoody Christ! That guy is frickin nuts! Lets kill the prick!
* Silouette heads after Ire, taking the passenger seat for once
<Firebird> Sorry, hon, no can do. *walks after Ire, hands in pockets*
<Selphie`Cao> Damn.. Well, I'm gonna brutally beat him to a bloody pulp then! *walks after firebird*
* Firebird slides behind the driver's seat and sits, leans back, and dozes off
<Ghoul> *The camera zooms in on the womans face, who is no longer screaming. Her head is bobbing down, every so slightly, eyes glazed over...she's bleeding to death. The sound cuts on, and Ghoul is suddenly beside her, his masked face inches from hers, "...This could be it, folks..I give her the count of 5....4....3.." *Her eyes roll back into her head, and she slumps forward, "..well, better off next time. We'll start again in a couple of minutes."
* Ire waits until FB and Selphie are in, accelerates dangerously fast, then does a quick half-circle, driving forward again.
* Selphie`Cao hops in, behind Firebird.
* Ire tears onto the street.
* Ire speeds dangerously fast along the streets, keeping an eye on the holovid.
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: Would I call the general population Americans?
* Ghoul spends the next couple of minutes showing off for the camera - a one-handed handstand on the desk, a couple of flips here, juggling throwing knives. All to corny circus music.*
<Ire> NRP: ... no
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: when talking about Mega City?
<Ire> NRP: America hasn't been around for a looooong time.
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: what would they be called then?
<Ire> NRP: Beats m.
<Selphie`Cao> You mega city chaps drive like we do over in Britian. haha.
* Ire jerks the wheel onto the next street
* Silouette is silent.
* Ire is fuming.
* Selphie`Cao mumbles something about being a friendly bunch....
* Ire sees the studio up ahead.
* Ire swerves around some Sunday drivers
<Ghoul> *The building is large, about 15-20 floors.*
* Ire drives into the parking lot, going over a yellow cement thing to do it.
* Firebird opens one eyes
* Ire drives straight for the doors.
<Firebird> *sighs* <It's never easy, is it...>
* Ire turns the wheel and hits the breaks, sliding sideways and coming to a stop 6 feet from the entrance.
<Ghoul> *A couple of people there scream and leap out of the way*
<Selphie`Cao> So this is where that arsehole is?
* Ire turns the van off and steps out of the van.
* Firebird yawns and steps out after Ire
* Ire marches forward, throwing open the door into the building. He moves inside.
<Ghoul> *The lobby is packed - security gaurds and executives all watching the pirated broadcast*
<Selphie`Cao> .... Guess that's a yeah. *steps out after Firebird, she draws a pistol from the holster around her thigh*
<Ire> What floor is he on?
* Silouette moves in, one hand resting on her sword hilt.
<Ghoul> *One exec looks to Ire, "...First things first, buddy. Who the fuck are you?"
* Ire pulls out a badge and slams it down on the nearest table, making it sound like a thunderclap
<Ire> What. Floor. Is. He. ON?
* Selphie`Cao walks in, and watches Ire.
<Ghoul> *The exec jumps, slighty, "....10...he's on 10...but he's got armed people up there watching the elevators and stairs..."
* Ire scoops up the badge.
<Ire> Where's the stairs?
<Selphie`Cao> Aww, no lift today. Aw well.
<Ghoul> *The exec points off to the right*
* Ire points at Selphie and Firebird, then points at the stairs
<Ire> You two take them.
<Firebird> <Sir.>
<Ire> Sil, with me.
* Selphie`Cao looks at Firebird. "Yes Sir."
* Ire walks up to the elevators, stepping inside.
<Firebird> <Follow me.>
<Selphie`Cao> Alright mate, that I can do!
* Firebird shakes his head. .oO{Business first, Steven... be friendly for a change...}
* Silouette nods and follows Ire into the elevator, casually eyeing the ceiling
* Firebird heads for and up the stairs
* Ire whispers something into Silouette's ears as he hits floor 10
* Selphie`Cao follows Firebird up the stairs.
<Ghoul> *The elevator starts up and up...*
<Firebird> <I hope you're ready for a fight... uh... I never got your name.>
<Selphie`Cao> <Selphie, me names Selphie.>
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: Did I catch his?
<Firebird> <I'm Firebird. Call me Steven, if you wish. It's good to have another psion around...>
<Ghoul> *The elevator passes 7....Firebird and Selphie pass 4...*
<Selphie`Cao> <I was bloody afraid I was gonna be the only one 'ere.>
<Selphie`Cao> <Nice to meet you Steven.>
<Firebird> <Likewise.>
<Selphie`Cao> <Blimey. You still look familiar.
<Selphie`Cao> >
* Selphie`Cao continues up the stairs.
<Firebird> <As do you... eh, we've got other worries right now...>
<Ghoul> *BING, the elevator stops. FB and Selphie pass 7...*
<Ire> *the doors...open?*
<Selphie`Cao> <Yeah, we might make time to talk with each other later.>
<Ghoul> *The doors begin to open, then automatic gunfire ensues, ripping into the opening doors*
<Ire> GM: *an empty elevator is shot up*
* Firebird hesitates at floor 9
<Ghoul> *2 thugs in gang colors with machine pistols approach, looking in, "...What the..?"
* Ire kicks in the elevator hatch and swings in upside down, aiming the handguns. He opens fire at them.
<Firebird> *to Selphie* <Get ready... this could get ugly.> *draws his guns*
<Selphie`Cao> *as she looks up at thr 10th floor, she lifts up her skirt and takes her other pistol from her holster arounf her other leg. <Ready?>
<Firebird> <Let's do it.>
* Selphie`Cao nods
<Ghoul> *The thugs scream, their boddies rippling with Ire's shots as they collapse to the ground. Down the hall, shouts can be heard*
* Firebird heads up the final flight of stairs and slowly opens the door into the hall
* Ire opens fire down the hallway, firing blindly from his upside down position
* Selphie`Cao quietly follows.
<Ghoul> *A thug has his back to Firebird, looking down the hall in the direction of the elevator. He's raising his pistol as Ire is shooting down the other side*
* Selphie`Cao eyes the thug for a moment.
* Firebird slinks up behind the thug and puts him in a headlock, wrapping his hand around the thug's mouth, and presses the barrel of one of his guns into the thug's back
* Ire stops firing suddenly.
<Firebird> *to the thug* <Now we can do this the easy way, or the bloody way... which is it gonna be?>
<Ghoul> *The thug goes rigid - nonetheless, down the hall, double doors marked Studio 10 silently open, and 2 thugs poke their heads out*
* Selphie`Cao hops out and lands beside Firebird and the thug.
* Firebird clocks the thug over the head with the butt of his pistol and looks down the hall
* Ire flips down into the elevator, glancing at it's bullet ridden walls. He steps into the hallway.
* Selphie`Cao begins to make her way down the hall.
<Silouette> *The 'on the air' sign above the door falls down onto the thugs at the door.*
* Firebird drops the thug's unconscious body and starts down the hallway
<Ghoul> *The thug cries out and collapses. The second blinks, looking to the sign, then down the hall at Firebird. He draws his pistol*
<Ire> NRP: Is he in my line of fire?
* Firebird spins his right gun and points it forward
* Selphie`Cao aims her pistol at the thug, she shoots twice.
<Ghoul> Nrp: yes he would be
* Firebird fires once, just in case Selphie missed
<Ghoul> *The fires off twice at FB before Selphie's shots take him in the shoulder and face. Blood and brains splatter on the wall as he jerks and collapses.*
<Ghoul> NRP: Thug
* Firebird bends backwards at the waist, letting the shots fly over him
<Ire> Not bad you three.
<Firebird> <No problem.>
<Selphie`Cao> <Nice.>
* Ire approaches the Studio 10 door.
<Ghoul> *The hallway is empty, the only sound is that of sobbing and crying.*
* Selphie`Cao walks further down the hall, behind Ire.
* Firebird straightens - his back pops at least five times
<Firebird> .oO{...Don't DO that, moron...}
* Firebird heads after Selphie
* Ire leans against the wall just to the side of Studio 10's door. He pauses, then makes a bird call.
<Selphie`Cao> .oO( Why did I ever agree to this...)
<Ghoul> *The Studio 10 door is open, slightly, giving a slight view of the anchorman's desk - no sign of Ghoul.*
* Selphie`Cao has her pistol aimed at the door.
<Silouette> *walks up behind the group* ...I didn't see anyone else... I expect some form of ambush still...
<Ire> Ghoul's in there. We're going to try our tactic again.
<Selphie`Cao> What tactic is that?
<Ire> I'll make like I'm opening the door and stepping in, you rush in unnoticed, Silouette.
* Silouette nods slowly.
* Ire glances through the crack in the door, takes a deep breath, and tenses his body.
* Ire moves forward, quickly, throws open the door, and steps partially into the room.
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: ALright, I'm sorry, but I gotta go. I'm drifting in and out of sleep in my chair. >.<
<Ire> NRP: Infidel!
<Selphie`Cao> NRP: Night guys! ^^
<Silouette> NRP: G'night!
<Ire> GM: *a random piece of roof lands on Selphie's head, KOing her*
*** Selphie`Cao is now known as Caladia
<Caladia> NRP: HA! *snickers*
<Ghoul> *It's a large room, with the cameras facing the desk, and behind them are the staff, all down on their knees, crying and sobbing, eyes wide. No sign of Ghoul.*
* Silouette isn't seem entering the room... but she's not with the group any more.
* Caladia is away -( Sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeepies. Zzzzzzz. )- at 02:40a -( P:On / L:On )-
*** Caladia is now known as Cally-Sleepies
* Ire motions for Firebird to come in, too
* Ire drifts towards the hostages, surveying everywhere.
* Firebird follows Ire
<Ghoul> *An older gentleman, in a janitor's uniform, looks to Ire...then his eyes pan up, slightly, then back to him*
* Ire pauses, spinning and aiming his handguns above him.
<Ghoul> *There is a mass amount of sparks erupting from the ceiling, then a large light is tumbling down towards Ire*
* Ire flips brilliantly out of the way.
* Firebird , following Ire closely, looks up as well - and dives aside awkwardly
* Firebird tries to recover from the bad leap, but instead lands flat on his face
<Ire> Firebird, free the hostages. I'm going ghoul hunting.
* Ire keeps his handguns trained above him, walking away from the hostages.
<Ghoul> *The light smashes on the floor, inches from the hostages - then Ghoul flips down, landing on the desk. Hands cross over his chest, holding 3 throwing knives between each knuckle of a fist. "Peekaboo!"
<Firebird> *to Ire* <Scratch that idea...>
* Ghoul whips his hands out, sending all 6 in a cloud at FB and Ire.
* Ire opens fire on Ghoul.
* Firebird fires at the knives
* Ire twists so the knives dig into his right side and arm.
* Ghoul flips off the desk - nonetheless, there is a splurt of blood as he does. 2 knives are knocked off course, the others stay on target.
* Ire grimaces in pain as he is wounded on his right side. He opens fire on Ghoul with his left handgun.
* Firebird does the bend-over-backwards trick again - and takes knife in the shin
* Ghoul lands in a crouch, right hand going to the small of his back, drawing 3 more knives in it. Blood oozes out of his left thigh as he quickly rolls to the side, dodging the shots. He hurls the knives, tho, this time his aim is at Ire's guns.
<Firebird> <Dammit! I just had that leg fixed, too!> *opens fire on Ghoul with both guns*
* Firebird spins one gun and tries to pick off the knives
* Ire turns so that if any knives make it past Firebird's shooting, they'll hit him in the back.
* Ghoul charges out from behind the camera, leaping into the air and performing a jump-kick to take FB in the head.
* Ire staggers a bit, blood staining his uniform. He turns back around, firing at Ghoul again with his left handgun.
* Firebird thinks back to earlier and goes flat on the floor, attempting to shoot upwards at Ghoul]
* Ghoul flies over FB, landing in the herd of hostages. He quickly grabs the janitor and pulls him into the way of the gunfire, letting the shots rip apart the man's chest.
<Ire> ...
<Ire> NRP: Nargh! How de hell! I was firing when he was in the air!
<Silouette> *Three stun charged Shurikens fly down at Ghoul from above and behind.
* Ghoul reaches around, manipulating the dead man's jaw, "Ouchie."
* Firebird whirlwind-kicks to a standing position and resumes fire, ignoring the corpse
* Firebird fires at a spot rather than Ghoul, so as to avoid another human-shield situation
<Ghoul> NRP:I figured that to go to the floor and bring yer guns up, he'd have already passed by over head, no?
<Firebird> NRP: I probably missed by a mile, yeah, but the shots went straight up.
<Ire> NRP: I think he meant my shots.
* Ghoul continues to hold the dead janitor, letting him take the shots - He doesnt even notice the shurikens slamming into his back, and the back of his head.
<Firebird> NRP: Whatever.
* Ire stands there, eyeing the dead man he shot. He drops his guns and grabs his head, groaning.
* Firebird snarls, and holsters his gun and ignites his claws in one quick motion
<Firebird> <I'm sure you remember this trick... FLARING CHEETAH TRANSFORM!>
<Ire> ....Ti...
* Ghoul steps back, dragging the corpse with him, "....Whoo..all this excitment.." *He blinks behind his mask, then reaches back with a hand and fingers the sheriken there, "..Aw shit.."
* Firebird throws his hands to his sides and changes forms - and blinks at Ghoul's actions
* Ire seems out of it.
* Ghoul drops the corpse and stumbles back. "..I seem to be...getting rather..." *He collapses to his knees.*
* Firebird ignores Ire, who is behind him, and rather haughtily walks to Ghoul
<Firebird> <So, that's it?>
* Silouette flips down from the ceiling
<Ire> ...
<Firebird> <Good shot, Sil.>
* Ghoul falls into a sitting position. His head slides forward, then back, turning his head to look at Sil as she drops, "...Oh thats..right...there was...3 of ya.."
* Ire walks silently over to the corpse.
* Firebird slides back into human form, but leaves his claws ignited
<Silouette> ......I should have used standard ammo on him...
* Ghoul reaches to the back of his head and tears the shuriken out, "...Could have danced....all night.." *His eyes, seen thru the slits in his mask, glaze over and he collapses face first to the floor.*
<Firebird> <You have your live captive, Lieutenant. ...Lieutenant?>
* Ire pauses, then proceeds to kick Ghoul in the side while he's out of it. He reels back and kicks him again.
<Firebird> Yeah! Let 'im have it! Give him one for me!
* Ghoul 's body jerks with every kick, he makes no sound.
* Ire kicks him against the wall and keeps kicking him over and over.
* Ghoul 's body continues to jerk - somewhere, amidst the beating, a sharp snapping sound is heard. He only grunts.
* Ire stops, panting.
<Silouette> .........
<Firebird> <...Ok, Lieutenant, we do have to go home some time today. You can kick him back at headquarters.>
<Ire> Cuff the bastard and get him out of my sight.
* Ire sounds harsher than normal
* Firebird pulls a pair of cuffs out of his jacket pocket
<Firebird> .oO{Eww. Leave the boss-man alone for a few.}
* Firebird rolls Ghoul over and snaps the handcuffs on his wrists, then hauls him up and slings him over his shoulder
* Ire walks calmly over, ignoring his wounds, and grabs his handguns, holstering them.
<Ire> Silouette, free the hostages. Alert them what happened to the one.
* Ire turns and walks out and into the hallway.
* Firebird walks out into the hallway himself, choosing to take the elevator this time
* Silouette nods slowly and goes to cut the hostages binds
* Ire walks down the stairs. One...step...at ...a...time.
* Ghoul mumbles, slightly, "...no more needles...let me sleep..."
<Firebird> <Shut up, you, or I give your four needles of the plasma variety.>
* Firebird takes the elevator to the ground floor
*** Firebird is now known as Sherin-Sleepin
<Ire> GM: *some people take Ghoul from FB and whisk him away*
* Ire doesn't take the van, but instead opts to just walk back to HQ.
