* Paladin` rubs his shoulder and waits
[Dias> Huh?
[Diamondback> [I have a feeling that Steel won't really approve of this, but hey, if we did everything by the rules, life would suck around here, right?>
[Paladin`> I don't think Steel approves of anything.
* Garland talks to the counsellor, and a few minutes later, walks into the training room.
[Matsuoka> yup
[Dias> Steel, that over egotistical fart eater
[Diamondback> [That's the way things go around here, I guess...>
[Matsuoka> ...
* Diamondback glances at the newcomer
* Dias looks at the new guy
[Dias> Hey I know you..
[Paladin`> Hello Garland.
[Paladin`> It's been a while.
[Matsuoka> NRP: Orion can join in right?

* Garland looks closely at DB
[Garland> Your...... Jared's son, right?
[Dias> Slasher, you remember him?
* Garland laughs
[Diamondback> [Right. Chris "Diamondback" Carter.>
[Garland> Slasher? He's still alive? *laughs jokingly*
* Paladin` chuckles
[Dias> Alive, I don't care if he's alive, for all I care he could be in some ally half-ass drunk
* Garland looks at Dias
[Diamondback> [Never heard much good about Slasher... Apparently what Dad said about him was all true.>
[Matsuoka> ...
[Garland> My father was no better, but I loved him.
[Dias> He left me to fend for myself
[Dias> He disapeared one day after I came home from school
[Diamondback> [Geez, am I the only guy here that likes his father?>
[Dias> And he ain't my real father. He found me 
[Matsuoka> I think I had a fairly good father... strict, yet fair
[Matsuoka> I sure miss him...
[Garland> I liked my Father, I'm sure Jared told you about him.
* Paladin` coughs
* Dias the ball starts wavering at the name Slasher
[Paladin`> Is this some sort of psychological care meeting?
[Diamondback> [Yeah, I've heard a lot about Ultra Omega.>
* Diamondback glances at Paladin
[Garland> Anyway... The Counselor said you guys were on training?
[Dias> Db, can we get started
[Paladin`> Or were we actually going to do something?
[Diamondback> [Oh yeah, the sim! Damn, forgot all about it...>
[Dias> Got some anger pent up after talking about Slasher.
[Diamondback> [Yeah, Garland, that's right.>
* Garland laughs happily
[Diamondback> [You want in? I've been wanting to see if your fighting skills are as great as I've heard.>
[Garland> Well I don't want That Steel guy mad at us!
[Dias> Screw that fart eater
[Diamondback> [Steel? We could sneeze and he'd fly off the handle.>
[Garland> I signed up... yeah, I joined up.
[Dias> You even blink and he'll tear you a new one
[Garland> I'm in your ranks now, I have to look out for Garland.
[Dias> You shouldn't have given him such a big sword
* Diamondback nods and turns, hitting a few keys on the console
* Garland holds out the Gospel
[Diamondback> GM: The training room dissipates, replaced by a snowfield on all sides.
[Paladin`> I didn't think letting a child into this group was such a hot idea.
[Garland> Oh, well he has to get used to it.
[Dias> It had to be snow
* Matsuoka looks around
[Matsuoka> brr!
[Garland> I know it's hard...but... I have to be hard on him for reasons.
* Dias starts shivering and the ball latches onto him forming his armor
[Diamondback> [Ok, our mission is to find the Maverick base located somewhere in this area, and take it out.>
[Dias> Ahh, much better
[Diamondback> [The location is random, so I don't know where it is.>
* Matsuoka does a little dance to keep warm
[Dias> Someone scan for heat signs
* Dias walks over to Mats
* Garland looks around and sniffs the air
[Paladin`> NRP: Is snow falling?
[Dias> We could hug and share heat
[Diamondback> [I would if I could, Dias. Anybody else got a scanner?>
* Paladin` begins searching for tracks
[Diamondback> NRP: Yeah, very slightly.
[Matsuoka> that's okay ^^¡
[Dias> Heh..
[Paladin`> If anybody sees any marks, they're pretty recent.
[Dias> Damn't, the old fart rubbed off on me
[Matsuoka> .oO(now if Snipe were here! ^-^)

* Garland 's clothes are white, so they blend in as well
* Diamondback follows the tracks
[Diamondback> [Everybody, this way.>
* Dias follows the tracks while looking around
[Paladin`> Be sure to watch for any mavs people.
* Matsuoka sticks close to the group
* Garland walks along the tracks.

[Dias> Now everyone remember, stay away from the yellow snow
* Diamondback sighs
[Matsuoka> Dias...
* Dias grabs some snow and makes it into a snowball
* Garland looks at Dias again, looking at him in the eyes
[Paladin`> We can barely see the tracks from a few feet away . . .
[Paladin`> I'm open to suggestions Garland.
* Dias tosses it at Garland
[Diamondback> GM: A snowstorm suddenly picks up, covering up the footprints more quickly.
[Garland> I'm as open as you are, but.... *glances at Dias*

* Paladin` flicks his eyes from the ground to the horizon constantly

[Diamondback> GM: Footsteps other than those of the group are heard, though faintly.
[Dias> I hear something..
* Matsuoka keeps one hand on DB's shoulder so she doesn't get lost
[Diamondback> [What the... Mavericks! Lay low... Keep quiet..>
* Garland picks them up
* Garland sprawls out onto the ground, aiming his hands
* Dias crouches and looks around
* Diamondback concentrates in the direction of the sounds, and picks up the Mavericks
[Garland> NRP: I meant pick up as in hear
* Paladin` begins sneaking quietly forward through the snow, towards the sounds
[Diamondback> [About 100 meters that way...> *points*

* Dias touches the metal area
* Garland walks over to where DB fell in
[Diamondback> GM: It gives slightly.

* Paladin` shakes his head
[Matsuoka> ...
* Paladin` kneels by it and pushes slightly

[Matsuoka> Hey people!
[Paladin`> Ok . . . I guess the direct approach is always good
* Paladin` jumps on in
[Matsuoka> @_@
[Matsuoka> Wait for me! *follows*
* Garland coughs

[Garland> Why do you not use your mouth for talking?
[Dias> OUCH!
[Matsuoka> Get a better pick up line
[Diamondback> [Hey, no fighting between the members! No sense drawing attention to us!>
[Dias> I was going to ask if you wanted to borrow my armor?
[Matsuoka> sure...
[Diamondback> [I'm a member of an enhanced line of humans. Telepathy is my natural way of talking.>
[Garland> I find it.... slightly annoying, sorry.
[Paladin`> Just wondering, could you people quiet down?  They probably patrol this area . . .
* Dias the ball unattaches itself and attaches itself on mats forming a heavy cloak
[Diamondback> [You're not the first.>
[Paladin`> As it IS an entry point
[Matsuoka> ...

[Matsuoka> hmm...
[Dias> Someone mind snipering that thing
* Diamondback raises his rifle and picks it off easily
* Garland walks up to it, and breaks the wire
[Garland> No!
[Diamondback> [That'll work too... oops?>
[Matsuoka> huh?
[Diamondback> [Glad the bullet passed after you snapped the wire.>
[Dias> I'ld expect company
[Garland> It might have had a tamperment device, they may know were here now, not to mention the explosion!
[Paladin`> Not to mention weapon noise.
[Dias> Well, so we get some action
[Diamondback> [Gah... Yes, I'm a rookie... If we keep moving, they won't find us. Let's find an elevator or something.>

[Slash> Left

[Dias> NRP: Surprise you haven't yelled at me for my wav which wont be happenen
[Garland> Garland told me you took care of him the other day, when you all faught "Cain"
[Slash> Dont split up.
[Diamondback> [No splitting up. Dad said he had some bad experiences with splitting up.>
[Matsuoka> hmm... good idea
[Slash> NRP: i leave you out.  My friend "Blade" took your place.

[Slash> NRP: Blast, outta here. mom wants phone
[Matsuoka> then should we go right?
[Paladin`> If you're in an enemy base . . .
[Paladin`> Any direction is the wrong way.
[Garland> So, let's pick, and then go the oppisite way.

[Diamondback> [Probably the weight of the elevator.>
[Paladin`> They probably already knew we were down there . . .

[Diamondback> Intercom: One minute...

[Matsuoka> ...
[Diamondback> GM: The base explodes in a brilliant flash of light. The ground is blown up for a mile on either side, but the shockwaves to not reach the group.
[Matsuoka> NRP: *punt*
* Dias flaps away
[Garland> NRP: Heh
[Diamondback> [Phew... Good thinking, Garland.>
[Dias> What about me. IF i wouldn't have mentioned the whole big base idea
[Garland> Thanks.
[Diamondback> GM: The sky and snowfield dissipate, replaced by the training facilities.
* Diamondback reverts to human form
[Diamondback> <Yeah, Dias, good thinking.>
* Dias the wings form back into a ball and he drops to the ground with a big thud
[Paladin`> You alerted a whole base of mavs to our prescence as well.
* Garland lands on the ground, while he was only a few inches up, anyway
[Dias> OUCH@@
* Matsuoka slumps onto the ground out of breath
[Dias> Damn ball..
[Matsuoka> Good...Sim...DB...
[Garland> I have to say, I was impressed.
[Paladin`> Yes, it was good.  Was this your first?
* Dias the ball forms a face and sticks it's tongue out
[Diamondback> [I think we're ready for whatever is thrown at us. That proved it.>
* Matsuoka grins
[Dias> Maybe in our eyes, but what a but ol FartHead
[Diamondback> [Thank you, everyone. Yes, that was my first programmed sim.>
[Matsuoka> I wonder...where steel...is
* Garland walk up to Dias
[Diamondback> [Heh. Yeah, ready for everything except General Asswipe.>
* Dias looks at Garland
* Matsuoka laughs
[Garland> Your going to respect Steel.
[Dias> Yes..how may I help you.
[Garland> I respect him. You should.
[Paladin`> There probably is a reason he is a general.
[Dias> And you didn't hear what DB just said?
[Diamondback> [I do respect him. I just don't like him.>
[Diamondback> [Two different things.>
[Matsuoka> me too...
[Paladin`> I don't respect him.  I don't think he's fit to lead.
* Garland looks at DB, resenting the meaness (if thats a word) from his comrades
* Dias looks at Garland
[Dias> Sorry...your right.
* Garland nods to Dias
* Matsuoka stands up and stretches
[Diamondback> [You know, Garland... You make a lot of sense...>
[Dias> Now give me a big ol hug
[Garland> Not many people liked DeathStar at first. Then he saved all of hour lives countless times.
[Dias> And from what I heard they saved his ass countless times too
[Garland> I'm positive the same is with Steel.
[Diamondback> [No matter how rough he is, he's only... um, Reploid.>
[Paladin`> I don't think so.
[Dias> Garland, give me a hug!
* Garland corrects DB, "No, a person."
* Garland hugs Dias quickly
[Diamondback> [You know what I mean, sir.>
* Matsuoka giggles
* Dias steals Garlands money while he's hugging him
* Garland has no earth money to use.
[Diamondback> [Anyway, everyone's free to leave. Thanks for coming.>
* Dias looks at what he looted and drops it with a scream
[Matsuoka> No problem DB... it was fun!
* Paladin` walks out of the sim room
[Dias> You shouldn't be carrying one of these...
[Dias> DB, can i have that remote for a sec
[Diamondback> [Steel's going to be pissed. Maybe I can show him the log of the sim and change his mind...>
* Garland picks up his money bag
[Garland> .... I'll remember this.
[Diamondback> [...What remote?>
* Dias takes the remote from DB and starts pressing button
[Dias> The one you used to activate this place..
[Garland> Chris... buy you a drink?
[Diamondback> [Oh, that remote.>
