<Dias> -0-
<Dias> Stardate 10-584.4.19
<Dias> 6The Aquarius is on it's last leg of it's trip to Cartel Space to discover something that the recently deceased Red discovered.
<DeathStar> 6* John leans back in his seat, holding a hand of cards. "...go fish." 6He tells Dias.
* Myria is not around....but she has to be somewhere on the ship!
* Dias scrunches his face together in defeat. He reaches his hand out and pulls a card out and then places it in his hand.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru wanders the ship, deep in thought
<DeathStar> 6* John narrows his eyes as he looks at Dias' face. "Give me a ..... 5."
* Dias grumbles slightly as he pulls a five from his hand and tosses it at John.
<Dias> Why do you always get the lucky chair?!
<DeathStar> <John> The... lucky chair? 6He takes the 5.
* Myria is in fact in the room where the teleporter is, tinkering with the machine.
<DeathStar> 6* John narrows his eyes again. "Give me a 7."
<Dias> Yeah, everytime you sit on that site you always wi....6He grabs yet another card from his hand and tosses it at John.
<Dias> NRP: That chair.
<DeathStar> 6* John takes it. "Sorry, kid, but this is Johnny's chair."
<Dias> I think Johnny's cheating. Give me an ace.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh ho ho. ME? CHEAT? 6He slams his hand down in indigiation. "Never."
<DeathStar> 6* John watches a card from his sleeve.
<Dias> You've won the last 6 games we've played. You even beat me at...6His eye's flashes to that card. 1"Why is there a card in your sleeve?
<DeathStar> <John> ... Um, I keep it there. You know. In case we lose a card.
<Dias> Oh...Well that's good to know. As I said. You even beat me at War.
<DeathStar> 6* John sighs in relief.
<Dias> Do you have any aces?
<DeathStar> <John> Um, you know what? I think we're almos there. I should go check on the bridge. 6He stands up and hurries off.
* Dias watches John leave then moves over to look at his cards.
<DeathStar> 6* He has four Aces
<Dias> .....
* Myria mumbles as she tinkers with the innards of the teleporter.
<DeathStar> 6* John sits down in his seat, glancing at how much time is left.
<Dias> 6 3 minutes till they drop.
<DeathStar> 6* John hits the intercomm. "This is your Captain speaking. We will be arriving in Cartel space in 3 minutes."
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru wanders to the bridge
<DeathStar> * John glances over his shoulder as Hotaru enters. "Greetings and salutations, Hotaru-san."
* Dias throws his cards on the table and walks out of the room.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru smiles, half-heartedly. "Greetings to you, also. Do you know what we're looking for?" *speaks respectfully, but with a hint of sadness*
<DeathStar> <John> We'll see when we get here. 6He notes with a shrug, putting his hand on the hyperspace lever, eyeing the clock.
<Dias> 6 It hits 10 seconds then suddenly leaps to an hour.
<DeathStar> <John> ...the HELL?
<DeathStar> 6* John brings his fist down on it
<Dias> 6It jumps from an hour down to 2 seconds, then 1 second.
<DeathStar> 6* John grabs the lever, then pulls it back slowly.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I... think you should check the instruments next time you get a chance."
<DeathStar> <John> I don't have the money to rehaul this damn thing.
<Dias> 6They slowly drop out of Hyperspace and into a bustling Solar System, Transport shuttles are lined up in wait to register their cargo while other Cartel Fleet patrol the area.
<DeathStar> 6* John begins to input Shiva's number into his comm. system, hoping it's up to date.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Lets hope nothing goes wrong."
<Dias> <Shiva> "Ahhh if it isn't John McCormick, I heard you dropped in but to contact me so quickly...What do I owe you the pleasure of?
<DeathStar> <John> I need to speak with you. 6He notes seriously. "About Red."
<Dias> I see, how is he doing?
<Dias> <Shiva> I see, how is he doing?
<DeathStar> <John> He's dead.
<Dias> <Shiva> I'm sorry...What?
<DeathStar> <John> He's dead, Shiva. 6He repeats. "A pro-hit."
<Dias> <Shiva> I see, I'll send out the proper information to get you here right away. Dock in the dead stall my dear.
<DeathStar> 6* John ends the convo. He sits there queitly a moment, then grabs the controls, bringing the Aquarius around.
* Myria walks into the bridge, wiping her hands on a towel.
<DeathStar> <John> We're going in. 6He shoves his controls forward and sends the Aquarius ahead.
<Myria> This ship is a mess.
<DeathStar> <John> Just like me. 6He notes to Myria.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru looks to John, feeling guilty for all her earlier comments suddenly
<Dias> 6They make it towards the planet without any problems and begin to enter atmo.
<DeathStar> 6* John adjusts the controls, ignoring a warning alarm telling him about his entry.
<Myria> It will take time to fix. Teleporter was miswired.
<DeathStar> 6* John looks a little pale.
<DeathStar> <John> Miswired?
<DeathStar> 6* He grips the controls as the ship shakes a little. "Oh hell. I hope that panel wasn't important."
<Myria> Mmmm-hmmmm!
<Dias> 6The Aquarius enters the planets atmospher.
* Myria eyes John...
<DeathStar> 6* John grins at Myria.
<Myria> I can fix...
<DeathStar> <John> You're an engineer?
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru breathes a sigh of relief
<Myria> I know...mmm...Progenitor technology.
<DeathStar> <John> ... do you know junk technology?
<Myria> I can fix.
<DeathStar> <John> Baby, I think I'm in love with you. 6He lets go of the controls to hug and the Aquarius plummets.
<Dias> 6Various Shuttles and Shuttlecars begin weaving around in panic
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru grabs the controls
<Myria> Controls! Fly!
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru flies the ship quite adequately
<DeathStar> 6* John glances at Hotaru, then leans forward. "Hmmm. Are you pilot?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I do have some skill in that area."
<DeathStar> <John> Awesome. 6He points out the landing pad they're going to use.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru heads for that
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: Wow, the team is well rounded
* Dias runs into the bridge, he stops staring in shock at Hotaru
<DeathStar> <John> From now on, Hotaru flies. 6He announces.
<Myria> and I fix. *nods*
<DeathStar> <John> And Myria fixes things. 6He rubs chin. "Man, I can put you in sexy engineer cothing."
<Myria> Sexy engineer clothing?
<Dias> MY JOB! 6He thrusts his finger at Hotaru*
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Glad you're feeling better, John."
<DeathStar> <John> I try to remain uncomplicated.
<DeathStar> 6* John eyes the landing pad as they get closer. "I leave it in your hands to land." 6He hurries for the hanger, grabbing his brown coat and pulling it on.
* Dias growls at Hotaru and runs after John. 1"I thought I was going to be back-up pilot!
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru sets down on the landing pad, then heads towards the hangar herself
<DeathStar> <John> Maybe when you grow facial hair, kid.
* Myria nods and goes after Hotaru.
<DeathStar> 6* John slides down the railing of the stairs and lands on the bottom floor of the hanger. He hits the ramp button.
<Dias> And how do I do that?
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru follows, but without the sliding
<DeathStar> 6* John slips off the Aquarius hanger, and onto the landing pad. He looks around, wind blowing past his red hair.
* Dias slips down fter him.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru follows
* Myria steps off of the ship.
<DeathStar> 6* He begins to walk along toward the building, his face set in determination.
<Dias> Why are we here?
<DeathStar> <John> We're here to learn the truth.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: You can't handle the truth!
<DeathStar> 6* John stops at the door, then hits the button to get it to open.
<Dias> 6The door slides open.
<DeathStar> 6* He then steps inside, glancing around.
<Dias> 6It's late at night so there's a few secretaries at the front desk, but otherwise it's dead.
<DeathStar> <John> Come on. 6He begins to move for where Shiva's office would be located.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru starts inside
* Myria follows.
* Dias follows inside.
<Dias> 6The secretaries glance at John and the others but make no move to stop him.
<DeathStar> <John> THAT'S RIGHT BITCH! YOU KNOW WHO THE MAN IS!!!
<DeathStar> NRP: Kidding.
<DeathStar> 6* John as he walks by the secretaries tries to remember if he had sex with them.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru as she walks by the secretaries wonders if John had sex with them.
<Dias> 6One secretary winks at John and blows a quick kiss.
<DeathStar> 6* John gives a thumbs up as he passes.
* Myria looks between John and the secretary.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps into an elevator, waiting for everyone to get on before he hits the top floor button.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru guesses that one did
* Dias hops onto the elevator
<DeathStar> <John> ... So... 6He looks at everyone. "Fancy place, huh?"
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru heads on
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "It is kind of extravagant."
<DeathStar> <John> You wouldn't believe the amount of money they blow in one day here.
<Myria> Ahhhh...
<Dias> Fancy yes.
<DeathStar> <John> They have beds here where there's no friction. It's like... 6He stops, remembering who he's in here with. "It's like...neat."
* Retrieving #PAXSeason7-4TeamCool modes...
* Myria looks at John.
<DeathStar> <John> ... What? 6He asks, eyeing Myria.
<Dias> I want a bed like that.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Wouldn't you fall off?"
<DeathStar> <John> Well, the point is to have.... .... really great... leverage...
<DeathStar> 6* He quickly steps off as soon as the doors open, tugging at his shirt collar.
<Dias> 6The elevator continues to rise, passing the 28th floor now.
<DeathStar> NRP: DAMN
<Dias> NRP: HAH!
<Myria> What is the purpose of such a bed?
<DeathStar> <John> Um, no real purpose. ....
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Lets find Shiva."
<DeathStar> 6* John tugs at his shirt collar, wondering how long this ride will take.
<Myria> I think I would like to experience this bed.
<DeathStar> <John> R-Really? 6He jerks his head toward Myria.
<DeathStar> 6* John looks at Hotaru. "How about you?"
<Dias> 30,31,90,91,92.
<Dias> 6 30,31,90,91,92
<DeathStar> <John> You don't have to count the numbers, Dias.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... not right now, anyway.."
<Dias> ...It skipped from 31 to 90 tho.
<Myria> Yes, it would be interesting. *nod nods*
<DeathStar> <John> Those other floors are not important.
<Dias> Oh...
<Dias> DING! 100th floor.
<DeathStar> <John> ... did you have to include ding?
<Dias> ...Yes.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps out, shaking his head.
* Myria steps out as well.
<Dias> 6As they step out, they appear to enter a very extravagent entryway, before them are two gold laced doors begging to be opened.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru heads to the doors
<DeathStar> <John> It seems Shiva's added in the "filthy" to "filthy rich".
<DeathStar> 6* John moves to the doors, grabbing the handles and pushing it forward.
<Myria> This is too much...
<Dias> 6The doors swing open easily, despite their size. Before them is a ritzy decorated office, two of those beds are on their sides and in the back, behind Shiva's front office is a huge round one.
<Myria> Round...bed?
<DeathStar> <John> Frictionless.
<Myria> Why so many beds...?
<DeathStar> 6* John rubs the back of his head, as if embarassed. He opts to call out for Shiva. "Shiva?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I wouldn't have thought that you'd need more than one.. unless the other is to sleep on."
<Dias> 6Silence.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps along, moving toward Shiva's office desk.
<Myria> Such a strange place...
<Dias> 6Several peeing boys line the sides as they move further in along a gold laced spider silk walk way.
<DeathStar> (THE FUCK?)
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "..."
<Dias> NRP: Statues, not real boys.
<DeathStar> 6* John whistles. "Creepy."
<Myria> ...ahhh...this person is...strange...
<DeathStar> 6* John nods in agreement. "This is weird. Where the hell is Shiva?"
<Dias> 6A gun can be seen sitting on the edge of her desk.
<DeathStar> 6* John sits down in Shiva's chair, picking up the gun.
<Myria> I do not like this...
* Dias looks around the room and moves over to one of the peeing boys, eyeing it oddly.
<Dias> <Shiva> 6A concealed door suddenly opens up off to the side of her desk and Shiva steps out, only to be surprised by everyone there.
<DeathStar> 6* John eyes Shiva. "Well, hello, Shiva."
<Dias> <Shiva> Jesus John...Scare the living piss out of me...
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "You have reason to be scared?"
<DeathStar> <John> Oh re-heh-ly? 6He pockets the gun silently in his coat. "So, Shiva..." 6He gets up.
<Myria> Weird place.
<Dias> <Shiva> You should see my house. 6She moves over to her desk, taking a seat in her chair and leans back.
<DeathStar> 6* John turns to face Shiva, placing his hands on her desk's surface. "Why did the Cartel kill Red?" 6he asks bluntly.
<Dias> <Shiva> Excuse me?
<DeathStar> <John> Why did the Cartel kill Red?
<Dias> <Shiva> I see then...What did he tell you?
<DeathStar> <John> Everything. All about the Cartel. I even got proof. 6He motions around him. "But I want to hear it from you, Shiva."
* Dias mimics the position of the peeing statue.
<Dias> <Shiva> Red stole something from us that wasn't his John. He was on the run, the last we heard he left our galaxy and headed to the Verian Solar System.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Something worth killing him over?"
* Dias eyes Hotaru. 1"Dragoon Hotaru...No, sorry that's not our policy since it creates bad pr.
<DeathStar> 6* John shrugs his hands. "So I don't have to worry about my life when I give this data over to people who would pay big bucks for it?"
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> NRP: Nice to know that, Dias
<Dias> NRP: BAKA!
<Dias> <Shiva> Have you read what's on it yet John?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "..."
<DeathStar> <John> Yes. 6Holds out his hand. "Want to see if I'm telling the truth?"
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Her face flinches slightly, a mournful look on her face. 1"I don't believe you John. You've never been good with encryption codes. Just hand it over to me and go on your merry way.
<DeathStar> 6* John motions at his party. "But I got hackers with me."
<Myria> Ummm...I fix.
<DeathStar> <John> She's REAL good.
* Dias tilts his head, studying his group. "The boy Dias, one of Janus' toys, feeble at most with the mindset of a 14 year old. He'd be lucky enough to crack a walnut. Dragoon Hotaru is specialiced in weapon based martial arts, her signature is an Energy Scythe. She dabbles a little in piloting among other Dragoon abilties...
<DeathStar> NRP: SHIVA IS A MAN
<Dias> NRP: Bite me.
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah. But you ain't got nothin' on what they can do. 6He holds up his hands. "I'm going to only ask you one more thing, Shiva. Where art thou loyalities?"
<Dias> <Shiva> This other one is a Erusian, someone who's not familiar with outside technology by her awe and wonder at my office.
<Myria> Oh, I know technology. Just...your office is kind of...tacky.
<DeathStar> 6* John grins.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Agreed.. it's a little overdone."
<Dias> <Shiva> You use a translator. And the coding on that data isn't cracked easily.
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Clasps her hands before her. 1"My loyalties John, have always been the same. Nothings' changed since the day we met.
<DeathStar> 6* John holds up his hands, taking a step back. "Well, that's all I needed to know. Time I go play hero, Shiva. And we both know what that means. See you around." 6He winks at her, turning to go. "I'm bringing down this house of cards."
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru turns to follow
<Dias> <Shiva> John, I suggest you leave this where it as it is now. I don't want to see you get hurt in the crossfire.
<DeathStar> <John> Red was my friend. Family, even. And trust me. 6His voice is strangely dark. "A lot of people are about to get hurt."
* Myria moves over to one of the beds and flops on it just to try it out!
<DeathStar> 6* John sighs, holding his forehead. "And she ruins the mood." 6He turns to go.
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Stands up from her desk. 1"And more may be hurt by your actions John. Do you want another Erusian War?
<DeathStar> 6* John looks at Shiva. "Baby, if it's war you want, consider the first shot already heard around the universe." 6He walks off.
<Dias> <Shiva> You know I can't let you leave her if this is your action.
<DeathStar> <John> Try to stop me. I dare you. 6He keeps walking.
* Cole steps into the office, "Miss Shiva, sorry i'm..." He looks at John's crew oddly.
<Dias> 6Myria hits the bed and is suddenly flung off the bed and onto the floor.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru looks to Cole silently
<Myria> Owww... *stands up and follows after John*
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Scowls slightly as Cole walks in. 1"Apprehend this man on accounts of treason."
* Dias looks around oddly.
<Cole> Who? *he looks from Dias to John.*
<DeathStar> 6* John claps his hands. "Lets move it, people." 6He rushes forward.
<Dias> <Shiva> John.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru follows John, taking the rear guard
* Myria nods and darts after John.
* Dias dashes out after John.
* Cole moves to step in John's way. "Sorry, I gotta arrest you."
<DeathStar> 6* John, already having a distance, is way past Cole.
* Cole makes chase then, running along after him.
<DeathStar> 6* John stops, then kicks out a window, shattering it with his boot.
<Dias> <Shiva> Follow after them Cole, don't let them escape. 6She sits back down in her seat, running her hands through her head.
* Cole covers his face with his arm, shards of glass digging into it. He continues forward without hesitation in his step.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps with his back to the window, balancing on the edge.
<DeathStar> <John> Hey, Cole. You enjoy being the lap dog once again? You seem to get caught up with traitors.
* Cole slides in front of him. "...What are you talking about?"
* Dias slides over besdie John.
<DeathStar> <John> You're with the bad guys yet again.
<Cole> How do you figure that?
<DeathStar> 6* John hits something in his coat pocket as he stands there.
<DeathStar> <John> The Cartel murdered Red.
<Dias> Can I beat him up? 6He looks at John eagerly*
<Cole> Red? You mean...that really horny guy? Why did they do that?
<DeathStar> 6* John grins wickedly. "Well, you know Cole, I'll let you figure that one out yourself." 6He waits for Hotaru and Myria to catch up.
<Myria> ...why are we out here? *climbs out after them*
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru climbs out shortly after Myria
<DeathStar> <John> Because I like the wind in my hair. 6He looks over his shoulder at the 100 foot drop.
<Cole> The fall will kill you. *he notes to John and the crew*
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah. Grand, ain't it? 6He falls straight backwards, spreading his arms.
* Dias waves at Cole and leaps out behind him.
<DeathStar> 6* John lands on top of the Aquarius
* Cole rushes forward to look over the edge, he would leap off after them now.
* Myria jumps over to the ship as well!
* Dias lands beside John awkwardly, then looks upto see Cole falling towards him. 1"AHHH!" 6He moves off to the side to dodge him.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru leaps onto the Aquarius
<DeathStar> <John> Lets move it! 6The Aquarius begins to move forward as Cole jumps. John catches Myria's hand, swinging her on as they move out of range of Cole's jump.
* Cole spins in the air, igniting his katars and digging them into the side of the ship to keep from falling to his doom.
<DeathStar> 6* John steps over the edge of his ship, glancing down. "You got ten seconds to jump back for your building, Cole, or we'll drop you."
<DeathStar> 6* He points out the emergency hatch to the others to get in.
<Cole> I don't think so John, I want answers. *he begins to pull himself up*
<Dias> 6Off in the distance at where John's normal landing spot is, numerous flashing lights can be seen swarming
<DeathStar> <John> 5 seconds. 6He says outloud.
<DeathStar> <John> 4 seconds.
<DeathStar> <John> 3 seconds.
<DeathStar> <John> 2 seconds.
<DeathStar> <John> 1 second.
* Dias eyes John and moves over to the hatch and climbs inside
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru climbs in
* Myria enters the ship.
* Cole uses his strength to leap up to tackle John.
<DeathStar> NRP: You're not close enough.
<DeathStar> NRP: John would never have given you time to reach him
<Cole> NRP: Alright.
<DeathStar> 6* John hits a button and a turrent activates from his ship
* Cole slams a fist into the side of the ship. "Fine. I'm going, don't shoot."
<DeathStar> 6* John walks off, holding up a hand as he moves to the hatch. The turrent begins to power up.
* Cole positions himself then jumps off onto the other building.
<Dias> 6Cole lands on an office balcony.
<DeathStar> 6* John climbs down, closing the hatch. He eyes the others. "The Cartel is going down. Anyone who wants out of this, let me know now."
<Dias> I'm with you the whole way captain!
* Cole turns to watch the Aquarius. A frown on his face.
<Myria> I think she meant I was dumb. *crosses her arms and pokes out her lips*
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Steps out of her office and onto her balcony, she moves to the edge leaning against and looks down at the Aquarius.
<Cole> He's a tricky one. *he comments with a frown*
<DeathStar> 6* John heads for the bridge, sitting down and grabbing the controls. He begins to fly the Aquarius forward.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I... want the truth... but I'm with you."
<Myria> What do we do then?
<DeathStar> <John> We decode the disk.
<Myria> Ok!
<Dias> <Shiva> 6Watches the Aquarius fly away
<DeathStar> <John> And I know just the man.
<Myria> Who?
* Cole glances at Shiva. "Just what the hell is going on?"
<DeathStar> 6* John grins. "Oh, just a little someone who owes me a favor."
<Dias> YAY!
<Dias> It's not...sexual is it?
<DeathStar> <John> ... 6He eyes Dias.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "You're not 'that way', are you?"
<Dias> <Shiva> Somethign was stolen from tthe Cartel, John prefered to ignore the terms of exchange.
* Dias looks at John. 1"WhaT?
* Myria stares at John.
<DeathStar> 6* John shakes his head. "Right now, we need to get out of system and hide the Aquarius."
<Cole> And was Red killed because he stole whatever it was that was stolen?
<Dias> We could pain it black?
<Dias> <Shiva> Red was accidentally murdered in a bar brawl Cole. Nothing more than that.
<Myria> But where?
<DeathStar> <John> Leave it to me. 6He says confidentally.
* Myria nods.
* Cole looks to Shiva. "Shiva, I don't like feeling uncertain. Why don't you tell me what is seriously going on around here. And not feeding me some report."
<DeathStar> 6* John gets them up and out of Cartel airspace, then sends them into hyperspace.
<Dias> <Shiva> I'm telling you what I know Cole...Look, you're a shitty secretary, you're fired.
<DeathStar> <John> ... 6He begins to send a message over the HoloNet.
* Cole eyes her. "Are you serious?"
<DeathStar> <John> Well, Shiva. ... Lets let loose the dogs of war.
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru sighs quietly
<DeathStar> 6* John stands up and walks off the bridge.
<Dias> <Shiva> Just...get the hell out of here. Go home, go jump around space. I don't care.
<Cole> Fine. The hell was I thinking, trying to stick around and be your friend since you had no one...*he turns to leave*
<DeathStar> 6* John steps into his room, running his hand over his face. He suddenly begins to kick his bed
<DeathStar> <John> GOD. DAMN. YOU. SHIVA.
* Myria knocks on John's bed...
<Myria> NRP: Errr
<DeathStar> NRP: Oh, you know you want to
* Myria knocks on John's door.
<DeathStar> 6* John stops kicking the bed, taking a deep breath. He moves over and opens the door.
<Myria> Are you alright?
<DeathStar> <John> Just making the bed softer. 6He notes casually.
<Myria> Strange way to do it...
<DeathStar> <John> Yeah. ... 6He runs his hand through his hair. "You want something to drink? Because man I could use one." 6He opens up a cabinet and grabs a fine wine.
<Myria> Ok.
<DeathStar> 6* John grabs paper cups, then pops open the wine, pouring them each a cup. He hands out one to Myria.
* Myria takes the cup.
<DeathStar> 6* John tosses it back like a shot, then pours himself another glass.
<DeathStar> <John> Shiva was my friend. Katrina's friend. And now she's killing people off I know. 6He sighs, sitting down on the bed.
* Myria blinks then tosses it back in imitation of John!
<DeathStar> 6* John fills up Myria's glass automatically, then throws back his second glass.
<DeathStar> <John> I'm about to pick a fight with the Cartel. I mean, they're huge. Everywhere. I mean, hell, they're on YOUR planet these days. 6He mutters in disbelief.
* Myria does so again!
<DeathStar> 6* John fills up both their glasses, then pauses, grabbing Myria her own wine bottle. He pops open his, pouring back the contents, as if he desperately needs to be drunk before he does this.
* Myria is already a little off balance...
<DeathStar> 6* John motions about. "I mean, they could hire a gazillion bounty hunters to smash out. They could send fleets of ships after us."
<DeathStar> <John> Half the components on this ship were probably BUILT by them.
<DeathStar> 6* John keeps chugging the wine, then looks at Myria. "Here, have some more."
<Dias> 6As if to mock John, A Cartel logo falls off the box of wine he's drinking.
<DeathStar> <John> Fuck. They even help me get drunk!
* Dias looks over at Hotaru. 1"Hi."
* Myria nod nods and drinks more!
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru looks over to Dias. ".. Hello."
* Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru sounds... distracted
<DeathStar> 6* John lays back on the bed. "But I can't drop this. Red deserves justice."
<Myria> ...muuuuuh...
<DeathStar> 6* John sits up, glancing at her. "Say, you okay"
<DeathStar> (?)
* Myria looks unsteady on her feet...
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "I can't stop thinking about this..."
<DeathStar> 6* John puts a hand on her shoulder. "Oh, man, you're wasted."
* Myria starts to tumble backwards...
<DeathStar> 6* John catches her. "Whoa, steady there."
<Dias> Why are you staring into space?
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "Everything is messed up... I don't know how the Cartel could order an execution like that..."
<Dias> I hear sex can heal any wound.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... John said that, didn't he?"
<Myria> Muuuuuuurrrrrh!
<Dias> No, I heard it on the radio.
<DeathStar> <John> Oh hell. 6He looks around, then lays her on the bed.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "This isn't the sort of thing that... well..."
* Myria is flopped on the bed.
<Dias> Well what?
<DeathStar> 6* John sits down beside the bed, still drinking his wine. "...You're right, though. I can't back down. Even if it is Shiva and the Cartel. I gotta know who in that organization ordered the hit."
<DeathStar> 6* John reaches over, brushing back some of Myria's purple hair. "I know how it ends, you know. You're there. We're all there." 6He notes, holding the wine. "I always heard it ends in fire. It doesn't."
<Myria> Murrrrrrrr...
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "It doesn't heal so easily."
<DeathStar> <John> It's a fuckin' whirlwind. 6He notes, laying his head back.
<Dias> We can try.
* Myria rolls over.
<DeathStar> 6* John closes his eyes, setting the bottle next to himself.
<Dragoon_Alpha_Hotaru> "... no thanks... I couldn't.."
<Dias> Oh...6Dances away.
<Dias> SESSION ENDS ON WETHER JOHN GET'S LAID OR NOT!


Session Start: Thu Sep 07 20:03:10 2006
Session Ident: #PAXSeason7-4TeamDarien
* Now talking in #PAXSeason7-4TeamDarien
* Cassandra_Arakawa has joined #PAXSeason7-4TeamDarien
* Kane has joined #PAXSeason7-4TeamDarien
* Alicia has joined #PAXSeason7-4TeamDarien
* Alicia is now known as Ceilidh
<MiniGM> Stardate 10-584.4.19
<Ceilidh> NRP: We're missing Elayne. Is this important?
<MiniGM> NRP: Is Elayne important?
<DeathStar> NRP: She got shot . Her story is over.
<Ceilidh> NRP: To this plot? Looks like it.. but she's just a McGuffin
<Xanatos> NRP: We aren't picking up from that last session, I was under that impression anyway.
<MiniGM> NRP: GAH!
<MiniGM> 6The sun has fallen as they team waits in the conference room for their next mission briefing.
* Xanatos sits there, arms crossd as he waits for Darien to come in and do his thing.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien sits at the table, having already been there.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> ...well...
* Ceilidh sits and quietly waits
<DeathStar> 6* Darien slides the folders around to everyone.
* Kane taps his fingers on the table, pulling up his folder to look at it.
* Xanatos grabs his folder to to look through it.
* Ceilidh starts to read
<MiniGM> 6Within the folder are various maps of a manufacturing base, several pictures of key people, and notes on drugs with one being specifically labelled as Hyper.
* Cassandra_Arakawa takes a look at her folder...
<DeathStar> <Darien> After combing over Ivan's HDD, we found out that V.I. has been mass producing a drug called 'Hyper'. This drug has a samiliar effect as steroids, however it increases a person's strength and durability. The drawback is that it destroys one's brain cells. Despite this flaw, it appears V.I. plans on using it to create super soldiers.
<Ceilidh> .oO(I guess they are as bad as Elayne said..)
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at the photos.
<Xanatos> Hmm. Super soldiers, eh?
<DeathStar> <Darien> Your mission is to use the maps and to inflitrate the three areas circled in red. You'll need to place bombs at each of these locations, then get out and detonate them to destroy the factory.
* Ceilidh nods, looking a little worried, but determined
<Kane> So we'll have to split up then?
<DeathStar> <Darien> I'll leave that up to Cassandra. Cassandra, you'll need to decide if you want to move in a single group, or split up. The call will be yours to make once you arrive.
* Cassandra_Arakawa nods.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> That will depend on the situation on the ground.
* Xanatos pulls himself up to his feet, placing the folder under his arm. "Time to go then." He turns to go toward the shuttle.
* Ceilidh nods quietly, trying to memorize the map as she goes
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr stands up, following after Xanatos.
<DeathStar> 6* Darien leans back in his seat. "Go get them, team."
* Kane stands and follows Zephyr.
* Ceilidh heads to the shuttle
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Has any of this crap been shipped out to VI yet?
<DeathStar> <Darien> A little. Test samples. The main shipment not yet.
<Ceilidh> "That's a relief."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Then we have to work fast.
* Xanatos gets on the shuttle and begins to power it up.
* Kane takes a seat on the shuttle.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits in the shuttle.
* Ceilidh continues to the shuttle, getting on board
* Xanatos waits for Cass.
* Cassandra_Arakawa heads out to the shuttle.
* Xanatos lifts up and blasts off for their destination. "So are we hitting 3 different bases, or three spots in the same base?"
* Kane pulls out his folder to check.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> There is clearly only one base.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> The latter.
<MiniGM> 6It appears to be one decent sized based in middle Slovokia, and it would appear if he remembered what he seen and was told, that it's 1 base with 3 locations to blow.
<Xanatos> Yeah...I forgot. *he continues to fly toward the base, passing over the ocean right now*
<Ceilidh> "Hopefully, we can get in and out without too much trouble... but something tells me it won't be that easy."
<Kane> It never is. *he says, looking up*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr tilts her head.
<MiniGM> 6Dark falls quickly as they travel towards their destination as they reach the European continent and head towards miidle Slovokia.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Blast the place, clean up afterward.
<Ceilidh> .oO(That's a crude way of putting it.)
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ... Are we really cleaning up? 6She asks in confusion
* Xanatos glances at Cass, then slows down the shuttle whenever the base gets in sight. He lowers it to land, "We can do recon from here. And see how you want to do things, cass."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Recon it is.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> And by clean up, I mean we take out the guys that know how to make this stuff.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Ah. Affirmative.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I want a sitrep of what's going on groundside. Do not engage the enemy.
* Xanatos opens the ramp, "I think Zephyr would be the best for that."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I agree.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr blinks.
<Ceilidh> "What should I do?"
* Kane looks at the maps, seeing what would be the best locations for their sneak entrance.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Ceilidh, you're our support.
<Ceilidh> "Roger."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr gets to her feet.
* Xanatos slides to his feet, "
<Xanatos> NRP: Piss.
* Xanatos slides to his feet, "I can do some recon with this eye too." He moves to step down the ramp.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr follows Xanatos down the ramp, glancing out at their surroundings.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Keep it quiet. We don't want them to know we're here.
<MiniGM> 6It's another forested area with mountain off in the distance
* Xanatos glances down at the map, then turns in the direction of the base, he zooms in with his synthetic eye, glancing around to see how heavy the guard is.
<MiniGM> 6The building is built in 2 wings with a central building. A perimeter of barbwire runs around it with towers every 25 feet with 3 guards on each tower with 2 spotlights. They apparently aren't afraid to let people know to stay away from this place.
* Xanatos glances at Zephyr. "What do you think? We going to have a chance at this?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> The odds are not in our favor of getting in quietly.
* Xanatos continues to look for any specific spot they can use to their advantage. "Can you think of anyway to actually accomplish that?"
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Negative.
* Ceilidh considers the terrain, looking for good spots to hide from the spotlights
* Cassandra_Arakawa sits, waiting for their report...
<MiniGM> 6One truck can be heard about 40 feet to their side heading towards the base, which is about a mile out.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* I want that truck stopped.
* Xanatos glances at Zephyr and nods, he ducks down low and begins to move toward the truck, using the forest to his advantage.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to move along the ground, matching pace with Xanatos.
* Kane looks at Cass. "You think just the two of them can do it?"
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Its Zephyr.
<Ceilidh> "Won't stopping the truck alert the guards to our presence?"
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Leave it intact. That may be our ticket in.
* Xanatos looks out through the trees at the truck moving closer towards them. "How do we stop it?" He asks Zephyr.
<MiniGM> 6 Zephyr and Xanatos reach the edge of the road and down the road two headlights can be seen coming towards them.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> It would be unwise to stop the truck. They could alert the others. We must take control of the truck.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* That's why I said leave it intact. Ticket in.
<Xanatos> ...How? *he glances at it getting closer* We're running out of time to think.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr climbs up a tree, balancing herself on a branch.
<DeathStar> 6* Timing the jump, Zephyr leaps out to make a silent landing on the truck.
* Xanatos watches Zephyr, knowing that if he tried to help, he'd make to much noise.
<MiniGM> 6Zephyr succeds as the truck drives past Xanatos who is hiding on by a tree
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to move along the top of the truck. She tilts her head to see how many are in the truck
<MiniGM> 6Only two, the driver and a guard, both of their weapons are hanging around their shoulders and they're chatting to each other.
<Xanatos> <Comm> Zephyr is getting ready to capture the truck now. *he informs Cass as he watches Zeph do her thing*
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Roger. Call in when you hve it under control.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr reaches in and grabs the guard first, slamming his head roughly into the ceiling to knock him out. She'd then swing in and attempt to punch the driver, while grabbing the controls to keep the truck steady.
<MiniGM> 6The guard is taken by surpised quickly while the second fumbles for his comm only to be knocked out before he can click it.
<DeathStar> 6* Shifting, Zephyr brings the truck to a stop.
<MiniGM> 6The truck comes to a stop right before the final bend to the base.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hops out, waiting for the others.
<Xanatos> <Comm> She has it, come to my position.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Roger.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Alright, we're moving out.
* Ceilidh starts down the ramp towards the truck
* Kane moves with Cass and Ceilidh.
* Xanatos waits for the others to reach him before moving on to meet up with Zephyr.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Alright, got the uniforms off these guys?
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Um. No. 6She blushes a bit.
<Ceilidh> "I'll.. umm... wait."
* Xanatos moves over to one of the guys and begins to switch out to the uniform. "Kane, grab that other guy."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Strip them. Xan, Kane...you guys are up front. Rest of us in the back.
* Kane nods and moves over to switch out uniforms as well.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr turns her back to the stripping.
* Ceilidh climbs into the back, keeping her back to the stripping
<Ceilidh> NRP: Why do I get the feeling that Sera's characters would watch?
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slides into the back as well.
<MiniGM> 6The back is fool of crates, there's some space between the crates as well, but it's little.
* Cassandra_Arakawa climbs into the back.
<Ceilidh> .oO(Full of boxes. This bodes well for our stealth.)
<Xanatos> NRP: Because they would.
* Xanatos gets finished and pulls some cuffs out of his back pocket to restrain his guy, then sets him off to the side so he wouldn't be discovered. Then he slides into the truck.
<MiniGM> NRP: *conts the time it takes you guys to get to the base*
* Kane does the same as Xan and slides in the passenger seat.
* Xanatos starts up the truck and moves on out for the base.
* Ceilidh waits, edgily
<MiniGM> NRP: Where's everyone hiding?
* Kane looks at the ID cards, "How we going to pull this past them?"
* Ceilidh hides amongst the crates
* Xanatos frowns, looking at his own. "I'm not sure, anyway you can change them?"
* Cassandra_Arakawa hiding in that back of the truck.
<MiniGM> 6They have about 1/2 a mile to go now.
* Kane takes both cards and works on rewriting them to fit Kane and himself.
<DeathStar> NRP: Kane and himself?
<Kane> NRP: Shit I meant Xan and himself. :S
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at the two in the back with her, offering a smile.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> Not very comfy.
<MiniGM> 6The crates rock back and forth from the dirt road.
<MiniGM> 6The front gate appears infront of them and approaches fast.
* Kane hands Xan his card, it would be completely changed with Xan's picture now in place of the driver's picture. Kane also finished with his ID card as well.
* Xanatos slows to a stop at the check-in station outside the front gate.
<MiniGM> <Guard> 6Steps out from his booth and moves over to the truck, waving them upto thegate.
* Xanatos slows the truck to stop at the gate beside the guard.
* Ceilidh stays absolutely silent
<MiniGM> 6The guard walks upto the truck. 1"You boys are running a little late..."6He looks up at who's in the truck. 1"New guys huh?
<Xanatos> Yeah, sorry about that. Got a little lost. But we're here now.
<MiniGM> <Guard> "Lost? Hah...You must be new, there's only one friggin road out here...I swear we've hired some of the biggest idiots lately."
* Xanatos frowns, "Sorry about that.."
<MiniGM> <Guard> Cheer up chum, it just means you'll fit in real well around here. My list says you got about 12 crates of materials, correct?
<Xanatos> Hold on, we have it wrote down here somewhere. *he motions to Kane, who begins looking through his datapad as if trying to find out how many crates were in the back*
* Cassandra_Arakawa counts the crates and then tells Xan via comm...
<Xanatos> Yep, I believe that is right. *he finally says after Kane nods to Xan*
<MiniGM> <Guard> 6Waits patiently. 1"Well?"
<Xanatos> Yes, we have it right here. *gestures to the datapad*
<MiniGM> <Guard> *eyes the datapad* You could've just told me there was 12 you know...
<Xanatos> Oh...well I just wanted to be sure...first night on the job. Don'
<Xanatos> Oh...well I just wanted to be sure...first night on the job. Don't want to screw anything up.
<MiniGM> <Guard> Well, I just gotta check the back to make sure you got what's you say you gots. 6He moves off to the back and slides the curtains open to peer inside.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr remains very still.
* Kane crosses his fingers.
* Xanatos justs sits there, staring ahead at the base.
* Ceilidh remains very still, and silent, between crates, not visible from the back of the truck
* Cassandra_Arakawa is operating under her camo cloak...
<MiniGM> <Guard> *turns away and heads back upto the front* All clear sir, just pull into the right wing loading dock. 6He taps the hood of the truck and moves over to the gate, opening it.
* Xanatos nods to him and pulls towards the right wing loading dock after the gate opens.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr glances at Ceilidh to see how she's holding up.
* Ceilidh seems a little scared, but otherwise fine
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr shifts as Xanatos pulls up, moving her way past the crates.
* Xanatos pulls into the docks, glancing around to see how many people are in the area.
* Ceilidh follows Zephyr cautiously
* Kane looks around to the right side for guards and such.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *whisper* Wait... *moves into the docking area under stealth*
<MiniGM> 6There are several people moving about, but very few.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* "Security is light here. Watch yourselves."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hops out of the truck when no one is looking, then slides under it to get a good look around.
<Xanatos> <Comm> You should take them out while we get busy unloading our crates. *he whispers into the comm before moving out of the truck and moving around the backside with the crates.*
* Kane gets outside of the truck as well, moving back with Xanatos, he looks around for any immediate threats.
* Ceilidh eyes the area for good spots to hide, then darts out to one when no-one is looking
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* "Ladies, let's go. Kane, transfer the explosives to Zephyr. I'll take point. If your cover is endangered, you have permission to terminate threats."
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr slips over toward Kane.
* Kane kneels down to tie his shoes, and slips the explosives to Zephyr.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr takes them, then moves behind some boxes to get near where she senses Cass.
<MiniGM> 6Two of the guards move around a corner and pick upa crate
* Xanatos glances to the guards, he and Kane start to help unload the crates.
<MiniGM> 6The 3rd guy scratches the back of his head as he leans against a crate, his head nodding off.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* I'm proceeding to the first blast point. Zephyr and Ceilidh, I'll keep you informed as to your path. *heads off*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr, having memorized the layout, waits until the guards in the room aren't looking, then follows the route.
* Ceilidh does likewise
* Xanatos continues to do the unloading, waiting for a perfect oppurtunity to catch the guards off-guard.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves along, keeping her eyes out for any signs of things Cassandra fails to report.
* Cassandra_Arakawa continues ahead of them along their path...
<MiniGM> 6One of the guards stops and grabs his back and begins grumbling as the other walks away
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr taps her comm. "Is everything okay, Cassandra?"
<Xanatos> He going to be ok? *he asks the other guards*
<MiniGM> <Guard3> Eh, he's just milking it.
<MiniGM> 6Cass reaches her area with ease.
* Xanatos watches him move off then looks at the guard asleep. "You care if we take a break? I'm beat.' He tells guard3.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> You've been working for like 10 minutes, don't be a pussy.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Im at the target point. All clear.
* Ceilidh keeps moving, staying alert. Very alert.
<MiniGM> 6Zephyr makes it to her point.
* Xanatos sighs. "Fine, fine." He moves over to keep working.
<Kane> Hey were's the can? I got to piss.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr scans the area, looking for the perfect bomb deployment spot.
<MiniGM> 6There's a gas line waiting to be exploded.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> 6Shrugs and motions to the corner.
* Ceilidh moves along, still, wondering how much further
* Kane moves over to the corner and begins to piss, his eyes move over to the guard asleep.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr moves to the gas line, attaching the explosives.
<MiniGM> <Guard1> *snorts as he rubs his nose*
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Bomb 1 deployed. 6She whispers to her comm.
<Ceilidh> NRP: Do I make it to my point?
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* I'm moving for the next target point.
<Ceilidh> NRP: Oh, right
* Ceilidh sticks near Zephyr for now, then
<MiniGM> 6Ceilidh finally reaches her point.
<DeathStar> NRP: Technically, they're all moving together.
<MiniGM> NRP: Crazy cooks!
<DeathStar> NRP: Cass is playing point.
<Ceilidh> NRP: Ah, right
<MiniGM> NRP: Thought they split up.
<Ceilidh> NRP: Oh. So...
<DeathStar> NRP: Pretty sure Cass is taking point.
* Kane leans over to tie his shoe, waiting for guard3 to turn his back to him.
<Kane> NRP: Shit, Xan did that.
<Ceilidh> NRP: It seemed that way at first, then I got unsure
<DeathStar> NRP: Zephyr's holding the bombs!
<MiniGM> <Guard3> *leans against the wall, his arms crossed*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to follow Cassandra toward Area 2.
* Ceilidh begins to follow Zephyr toward Area 2
* Xanatos straitens up. Then turns, waiting on Kane to return so they can finish unloading the truck.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> NRP: Yes, Cass is on point.
* Kane gets done peeing and turns around, walking back over to Xan, his face curls up in anger. "Damnit, hold on a second, let me collect myself before you start pulling shit around."
* Xanatos snarls, "Why don't you hurry up so I can get home, jeez you're such a slow ass."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* All clear so far.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> Both of you shut the hell up and get the last of the materials unloaded. We have deadline to meet.
<Ceilidh> *comm* On my way.
<MiniGM> 6the three make it to point 2 and find a main structure point.
<Kane> You only want to get home to that stupid whore, who takes all your cash! *he shoves Xan*
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr, unhooking a bomb, makes her way toward the main structure point to set it up.
<MiniGM> 6<Guard2> 6Eyes the commotion and moves over to the two. 1"What the hell's the problem?
<MiniGM> 6A man begins walking down their hallway.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> *comm* I need more time to set this up. 6She notes to Cassandra, in regards to the man.
* Ceilidh tugs quietly on Zephyr's shoulder, then darts into a niche to hide
<Ceilidh> NRP: Forget the tug in that case
<Xanatos> This asshole just called my broad a whore!
<MiniGM> <Guard2> Well is he right?
<Xanatos> What!? FUck you man, you don't even know me!
<MiniGM> <Guard2> 6Looks at Kane. 1"Well is she?"
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Roger. *moves down the hall to intercept the man*
<Kane> She asked to suck my cock the other day!
<MiniGM> <Guard2> I'd say that makes her a whore.
<Xanatos> THAT'S IT! *he swings his fist out for Kane, who ducks which would be sending the fist for Guard2.*
<MiniGM> <Guard2> *is caught by the dastardly trickery and falls to the ground knocked out.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> Hey you fucktards...
<MiniGM> 6The guy stops to get a drink of water.
* Kane ducks another swing, backing his way towards Guard3, "Come'on you little bitch!, Hit me!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr finishes the bomb while Cassandra dreals with the guard. "Finished."
* Cassandra_Arakawa shadows the guy, waiting to move only if there is a danger of Zeph and Ceil being caught.
<MiniGM> 6The guy finishes the drink and moves down towards Zeph and Ceil
* Cassandra_Arakawa then moves, grabs the guy and twists his head sharply.
<MiniGM> 6The man twitches and falls to the ground
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Could you not have ... made him unconscious?
<MiniGM> <Guard3> Hey man if you two want to fight take it outside. 6He steps off to the side moving away.
* Ceilidh winces a little, stepping out of the niche
* Xanatos grabs Kane by the collar and growls, tossing him toward Guard3.
* Cassandra_Arakawa drags the guy back over and stuffs him into the niche.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> I'm moving ahead.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Affirmative. 6She notes sadly, eyeing the dead man
* Cassandra_Arakawa then proceeds forward to the third and final point.
<MiniGM> 6The man catches Kane and shoves him back towards Xanatos. 1"Kick his ass dude."
<MiniGM> <Guard1> 6Hearing the commotion comes over to enjoy the fight.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr begins to move along as Cassandra takes point, motioning for Ceilidh to follow.
* Kane jerks around to face the Guard3, "Oh he's a pussy, I'm just playing with him."
* Xanatos growls and dives at Kane, who jumps up into the air over Xan, who would be coming in for Guard3.
<MiniGM> 6They three enter the main factory for Hyper, huge vats line the walls with people working off to the side packaging the finished product.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr pauses outside the room, not going in until Cassandra gives the clear.
* Ceilidh likewise waits outside, looking uneasy
<MiniGM> <Guard3> 6Steps to the side, letting Xanatos slam towarsd the wall beside him. 1"Hey mate, this runt's a little stronger than he looks. Kick him in the balls.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* We've got production line workers here...be careful.
* Xanatos pulls himself up to turn to face them. "Damnit he keeps moving too much!"
* Kane laughs at Xanatos. "Every fucking time!"
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr scans the room, picking out the location for her last bomb.
<MiniGM> 6The perfect bomb spot for this last wing would be one of the vats.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> I could use a distraction. 6She whispers to the comm.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> What kind of chicken shit fight is this?
<Xanatos> Psh. Like you could do better! *he scoffs at the guards*
<Kane> Psh, I bet none of you could beat me. *he laughs, looking proud that he hasn't even been hit*
<MiniGM> <Guard3> I don't have time to fight. Now get back to work you three!
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* One of the vats. I'll set it.
* Ceilidh points to the vat that seems the best place for the bomb, although Zephyr probably already knows
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr nods, holding out the bomb to where she believes Cassandra is at.
<MiniGM> <Guard1> *grumbles and moves back to work*
* Xanatos grumbles as well, moving back to get to work, he flips Guard3 off as he moves over.
* MiniGM rolls his eyes and moves back to his post, watching.
* Cassandra_Arakawa takes the bomb and moves in to the vat.
* Kane shakes his head. "See why you can't hire dumbasses like him." He notes to guard 3, standing close to him.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> Get to work.
<Kane> Fine. *he turns to walk away, then stops and spins around, swinging his pistol for guard3, aiming to pistol whip him.
* Xanatos attempts double axe handles Guard2 in the back of the head.
* Cassandra_Arakawa goes about setting the bomb.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr keeps an eye out as Cassandra works.
<MiniGM> <Guard2> *already knocked out is punched in the back of the head*
<Kane> NRP: Oh damn I thought Guard2 was the one walking back to the truck.....
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* You two start clearing out. I'll meet up with you.
<MiniGM> <Guard3> 6Is pistol whipped and he stumbles off to the side grabbing the back of his head. 1"What the fuck you little runt?!" 6He reaches for his gun and pulls it out firing on Kane.
<DeathStar> <Zephyr> Understood. We leave now, Ceilidh. 6She begins to retrace the route.
* Ceilidh starts back
* Xanatos jerks around to slam guard1's head into the side of the truck.
<MiniGM> <Guard1> *turns as he hears the gun shot, having been farther away by now and eyes Kane. 1"What the hells going on..."6He begins moving towards the Alarm.
* Kane moves forward, swinging the gun for the guard3's face before he can fire the gun*
<Ceilidh> .oO(Too late...)
<Ceilidh> NRP: Oh wait, nope
* Xanatos pulls his gun out to shoot the Guard1 in the back of the head.
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Hell...evac, now.
<Xanatos> NRP: No alarm sounded off yet.
<DeathStar> 6* Zephyr continues a steady pace through the hallways, reaching out to take Ceilidh's hand so she can use her speed to help out.
<MiniGM> 6Guard1 drops like a rock, his brain splattering everywhere. Guard3' shot it misplaced, but he brings his other hand out, punching Kane right in the nose.
* Kane stumbles back and pulls his gun up to fire at the man's neck.
* Ceilidh takes Zephyr's hand, keeping up
<MiniGM> <Guard3> 6Has his gun pressed against KAne's throat already too.

<Ceilidh> "..."
<Cassandra_Arakawa> *comm* Ladies and gents, all packages have been delivered. Withdraw.
<Xanatos> Damnit they should have just took a hit and went down...*he moves over to secure guard2 before moving over to drag guard1 to a secure place*
<Ceilidh> .oO(That's disgusting..)

<MiniGM> <Guard> You're not scheduled to leave till tomorrow night.
<Xanatos> But we're finished unloading. *he scratches his head*
* Kane begins to silently work to make a fake form showing they were scheduled to leave tonight.
<MiniGM> <Guard> Yeah but you guys are scheduled to sleep over night and take the finished product back to the city.
<Xanatos> Are you sure? THey just told us to come drop the stuff off and then leave...we have the forms here if you'd like to look at it?
