[Garland] NRP: in a min......
[Ripple] NRP: I would play hero of the day, but you see..... not fitting till END of missions..
* Snipe the base turns around in circles and many points light up that they may try to enter
[Snipe] ....Alright....We can try to enter through the base and enter the tower up on the 9th floor, or just enter the tower directly.  Probably be more security directly.
* Snipe leans against the jeep, glancing at his group

[Snipe] ....Alright....We can try to enter through the base and enter the tower up on the 9th floor, or just enter the tower directly.  Probably be more security directly.
[Ripple] Best bet would be going through the 9th floor
[Ripple] And having distractions along teh way
* Ripple points to 3 of the corners
[Ripple] Arnt those guard towers?
* Spirit listens to the other make plans, since she isn't too great at that herself
[Snipe] Yes.
[Ripple] Anyone have gernades/rockets around here?
* Garland looks closly at them
* Gravedigger sleepily walks up behind the others
[Snipe] ....Er, are we preparing for World War IV here?
[Ripple] Just a little distraction...
[Garland] I could do that.
[Spirit] I don't know, but I think it might be best if they don't know anything is going on.
[Snipe] ....That would give us away, wouldn't it?
[Ripple] It might, then again, it also could clear the way to get in...
[Garland] Maybe so, but they won't know you got in.
[Snipe] ....*decides to let the team make the decision on their own*
[Ripple] Ahh hell.  Lets Jet....

* Snipe they arrive at the base
[Snipe] ....Okay, there it is....
* Ripple looks at it, seeing...?
[Snipe] NRP: A normal looking every day villianous base with a huge satalite tower next to it, the satalite on the very top
[Garland] I could distract them...... at your dicresion, Snip.e
[Snipe] ....It could also alert them to us
[Garland] Not if they chase me in the oppisite direction as your entrance to the base.
[Snipe] Eaaaah, alright, I'm not one to make stragies...where's Spirit?
[Spirit] I'm here.
[Snipe] Alright...I want you to keep a mental lock on Garland's location at all times, okay?
[Spirit] Alright.
[Garland] right, and you can give me the teleport coordinaces, so I can join up with you guys.
[Ripple] If you need to pull him out, give his location mentally to me, and I'll pull him to use *pats warp generator on his belt*
* Snipe hands Ripple one of the warp blades

[Garland] .....Will you answer my question?
* Maki doesn't budge
[Snipe] Cain: About what?
[Garland] Snipe: I have no intention!
[Garland] Why did you hurt my son?

* Snipe charges rifle
[Garland] I see....
* Garland looks at him
[Ripple] *To Spirit* [Then hang on *closes eyes and concentrates* Im coming through you..]

* Gravedigger grabs Rip's leg
[Gravedigger] NRP: Or not....
