[20:02] <13@DeathStar> -Immediately Thereafter-
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> Location: Mega City?
[20:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* The team has found themselves surrounded by a group of people they thought to be dead - William Spade, Alpha Ariel, Alpha Cheryl, and Erevis
15[20:03] * 13@Marcus looks around, a frown on his face. "Anyone else as confused as I am?"
[20:03] <13SPoC> 6Dias shakes his head as he stands up. 1"Is that even possible?"
[20:03] <13@Marcus> * Theron peers at them silently.
15[20:03] * 13@Jennifer` does the only logical thing a girl her age and skill can do, she clings gently onto SPoC.
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* William Spade crosses his arms. "We were expecting you."
15[20:04] * 13SPoC looks at Jennifer than shifts infront of him.
[20:04] <13SPoC> NRP: Her
09[20:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Expecting us...?"
[20:04] <13SPoC> 6Dias blinks than looks at Spade. 1"Now is that even possible?"
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin goes to shift his hand to his gun, when William pulls his own weapon at Paladin's head. Around them other soldiers in EarthGov uniforms move in to support the four.
[20:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl makes a tch sound.
15[20:05] * 13@Marcus lets out a breath. "Of course, expecting us." He just snorts, shaking his head. "Uh. We surrender?" He holds up his hands.
[20:05] <13Kuroichigo> <Chii> Busted before we even begin... tch
[20:05] <13SPoC> 6Dias eyes them all, contemplating to himself on how many he can take down before he's taking out
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* William waves his gun at the ground. "Put down your weapons."
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* There appears to be about 15 soldiers, in addition to the four
[20:06] <13@Marcus> Or you'll shoot us and all that?
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> <William> Perceptive.
09[20:06] <13@Jennifer`> "I-I think that might be implied..."
[20:06] <13SPoC> <Dias> I can't, there connected to my forearms. 6He smiles
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other Cheryl eyes the real one, moving in a bit closer, examining her. She peers at Chii a bit.
[20:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* William smiles back, then aims and fires a stun shot at Dias' chest
09[20:07] <13@Jennifer`> "Dias!"
03[20:07] * Kulix is now known as Sardis
[20:07] <13@Marcus> What can I say. *he slips the shotgun off of his back and drops it down in front of him, then drops his blades down as well, glancing at Dias* Well that was just stupid.
[20:07] <13@Marcus> * Theron frowns and glances at Paladin.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin frowns a bit, then takes his gun, setting it down.
[20:08] <13SPoC> 6Dias falls to his knees, than hits the pavement
15[20:08] * 13SPoC tenses, than unholsters her pistol, setting it on the ground
[20:08] <13@Marcus> * Theron lays his rifle down, then drops the Katana down as well, not looking pleased.
15[20:09] * 13@Jennifer` is an unarmed kid! She continues being one.
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs, and removes her own weapon
15[20:09] * 13Sardis eyes Dias as he hits the ground, tossing down his pistols " That looked like it hurt. "
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> <William> Now, if yo--- Move now.
09[20:09] <13@Jennifer`> "Wha...?"
03[20:09] * Jackieness (Psy@h101.239.140.67.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) has joined #taw
03[20:09] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other three react and leap back, as does William. A blast attack slams into the ground where the four were
15[20:10] * 13@Marcus pauses. "Say what?" He glances around, then jerks, shielding his eyes.
15[20:10] * 13SPoC glances around, her eyes darting about
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> <William> Subdue the group now!
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* The soldiers begin to panic and look around for the attackers
15[20:10] * 13Sardis glances at Paladin " We could make a run for it. "
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Yes. Move people.
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other Cheryl flips and lands beside the real one. She activates her whip, and begins to attack her.
[20:11] <13@Marcus> * Theron retrieves his Katana and rifle and nods, moving to run away in the opposite direction.
15[20:11] * 13SPoC slides out her combat knife and grabs for her pistol
[20:11] <13@Jackieness> 6<12Myria6> *starts running just behind Theron*
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin snatches his weapon, right as Alpha Ariel aims and fires a beam blast at the group, trying to hit them as they're bunched up
03[20:11] * Jackieness is now known as Myria
15[20:11] * 13Sardis dives to scoop up his pistols, and a Dias, hefting him to his shoulder
15[20:11] * 13@Marcus jerks to grab Kat and fall to the side.
15[20:12] * 13SPoC twists and grabs Jennifer, leaping away with her
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina blinks as she's grabbed, unable to grab her own weapon
15[20:12] * 13@Jennifer` clings to SPoC as she's grabbed.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* William Spade begins to move off to the side quickly. Alpha Ariel pursues, dashing in at Freyja. She slams her fist into the woman's gut, then unleashes a beam blast into her.
15[20:13] * 13@Marcus jerks to pull them both up. "Get moving." He moves to retrieve her weapon for her, and his own blades.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Since they're on a street, they can get onto a side street, or an alley way.
15[20:13] * 13SPoC quickly stands up, pulling Jennifer up.
15[20:13] * 13@Jennifer` gets up and steadies herself, looking to Natalie on where to go.
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin's eyes widen and he moves over to grab Freyja, throwing her over his shoulder. He begins to move. As the two Cheryls attack each other, the enemy Cheryl breaks off, flipping to grab Chi, and teleports with her.
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Chii!
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina nods, and begins to run
15[20:14] * 13Sardis ducks into an alleyway with Dias, cursing at the situation
[20:14] <13@Marcus> * Theron attempts to slip down an empty alley way.
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel aims at Marcus and fires a beam
[20:15] <13SPoC> To the alley after hte others. 6She aims her pistol at Ariel and fires a shot
15[20:15] * 13@Marcus widens his eyes and attempts to fall to the ground.
15[20:15] * 13@Jennifer` nods and rushes into the Alley.
15[20:15] * 13@Myria ducks into the alley with Theron.
03[20:15] * Kuroichigo is now known as Freyja
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ariel dashes in at Marcus afterward, forming her energy blade.
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves into the alley, after the others
15[20:15] * 13SPoC shifts her aim and fires another shot at Ariel as she dashes in at Marcus
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ariel pause and deflects it. During all this, Erevis hasn't moved an inch, either way.
[20:16] <13@Marcus> Oh fuck me. *he shifts Kat's hilt into his pocket and pulls himself up holding his blades*
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* As the group runs through the alley, they would see a van pull up at the other end, the back doors opening up. John McCormick leans out. "Get in!"
15[20:16] * 13@Marcus shifts his foot under his shotgun and jerks to toss it up, where he could catch it and run away from the evil ariel.
15[20:17] * 13Sardis skids to a stop, eyeing John suspiciously
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel pauses, then lets Marcus go.
[20:17] <13SPoC> You should retreat. 6She begins backing up then turns, moving into the alley
[20:17] <13@Marcus> * Theron pauses and nods, getting into the ban.
[20:17] <13@Marcus> NRP: van*
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* She leaps straight up onto a building roof.
09[20:17] <13@Jennifer`> "John!" *she smiles and gets in, looking back to see Natalie and wave at her to get in too*
15[20:17] * 13@Myria climbs into the van.
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin gets in, dumping Freyja into it
[20:17] <13Sardis> Damnit.. No other choice I guess *gets into the van
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* John moves past someone else, Kane, and gets back in the driver's sear.
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl stomps her foot, pissed
[20:18] <13Freyja> .... Interesting... People
15[20:18] * 13SPoC moves into the van.
[20:18] <13@Marcus> Cheryl let's go!
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snarls and runs after Marcus
[20:18] <13@Marcus> * Kane eyes his datapad carefully, probably monitoring EarthGov chatter.
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes his watch. "Tick tock, tick tock."
15[20:19] * 13@Marcus waits enough for Cheryl to catch up and dashes for the alley.
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina gets into the van, and John and her share a wide eyed look
15[20:19] * 13@Jennifer` moves to sit with SPoC when she gets in.
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl runs in the alley after him, holding her chest
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... 6* He forces himself to look ahead, clearly freaked. Suddenly something lands on the roof of the van, causing it to indent slightly. Alpha Ariel kneels there
15[20:20] * 13SPoC raises her pistol and fires upwards into the indent
15[20:20] * 13@Jennifer` yelps and covers her head instinctively.
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* John looks up. "Kane. There's someone uninvited."
[20:20] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Noted. We have little time. We need to go.
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel blinks as a shot hits her. She fires back down into the van with a beam blast
[20:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl and Marcus would reach the van
15[20:21] * 13SPoC grabs Jennifer and rolls to the side.
[20:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin leans away as a searing blast flies in. He fires up through the hole.
15[20:21] * 13@Marcus jumps onto the back of the van and turns to reach out a hand to Cheryl.
15[20:21] * 13Sardis stands, moving under the hole in the ceiling as he aims both pistols towards Ariel, firing in rapid succesion
15[20:22] * 13@Jennifer` cries out in surprise and looks at SPoC, then the hole. "S-Scarey..."
[20:22] <13Sardis> What a day, huh!?
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl just leaps onto the side of the van, activating her whip and attacking Alpha Ariel's legs.
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel goes to dodge, but is tripped up. She falls on the van, and Cheryl climbs up the side with her, pulling hard to try to dislodge her
[20:22] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts slightly and aims up at Cheryl from the hole. Shooting stunning shots upward at Ariel.
[20:22] <13@Marcus> * Theron pauses to make sure he doesn't hit Cheryl.
[20:22] <13SPoC> Yes. 6She get's up and aims back upwards, looking
[20:22] <13@Marcus> MRP: Ariel the first time. :(
[20:23] <13SPoC> 6Dias groans, his head shaking. 1"Guh...Stupid stun shots."
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hits the gas, driving ahead now quickly, and begins to swerve the van. "Get off. Get off."
15[20:23] * 13@Jennifer` hold onto the side of the van to not get banged about.
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is hit by the stun shots, then looks annoyedly down at Theron
15[20:23] * 13@Marcus attempts to pull himself up through the hole in the rood, to try and pull Ariel's leg out from under her.
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin balances himself. Katrina reaches over, taking her sword from Marcus
[20:23] <13Freyja> Get Cheryl inside. I'll remove the guest...
[20:24] <13@Myria> Theron, be careful! You got her attention!
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is pulled. She swings her foot to kick at Marcus' face. Cheryl jerks and makes the kick miss
[20:24] <13@Marcus> * Theron holds his rifle calmly. "It was my intention."
15[20:24] * 13Sardis jumps up through the hole, propping his elbows on the roof to keep himself up as he thrusts the gun barrel forward at Ariel, attempting to take a point blank shot for anything vital
[20:24] <13SPoC> Theron, where is she? 6She raises her pistol up.
[20:24] <13Freyja> Get her inside!
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John just hits the gas, making them go faster.
15[20:25] * 13Freyja holds up her hand, beginning to chant quietly
[20:25] <13Sardis> ACK! *Falls back as John hits the gass
15[20:25] * 13@Marcus jerks anyway, but is glad Cheryl is helping, he attempts to pull himself up enough more to punch for Ariel's face.
[20:25] <13SPoC> 6Dias tumbles back. 1"Jesus christ, who's driving?"
15[20:25] * 13@Jennifer` lets out a little yelp and holds on more. "N-Not how I pictured coming home!"
[20:25] <13Sardis> This entire situation is a BRILLIANT demonstration of what lack of coordination does for a team!
[20:25] <13@DeathStar> <John> Look, no hands. 6* Holds up his hands
[20:25] <13SPoC> <Dias> JOHN?!
15[20:26] * 13@Jennifer` peers at John.
[20:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel frowns and dodges the punch. Cheryl punches at her kidney, stunning her
[20:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin leans around the back of the van to shout up. "Get back inside."
[20:26] <13@Marcus> <Theron> The roof. *he says, eyeing SPoC*
09[20:26] <13@Jennifer`> "It's Cheryl, you're gonna have to make her!"
[20:27] <13SPoC> I am aware of that. But I would like to shoot accurately.
15[20:27] * 13@Marcus attempts to grapple Ariel and throw her off.
[20:27] <13@Marcus> * Theron shakes his head, unsure not that there are multiple targets up there.
[20:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is grappled, but she holds her ground. She twists to hang Marcus over the side
[20:27] <13@Marcus> NRP: now*
15[20:27] * 13SPoC frowns, lowering her pistol now.
15[20:27] * 13Freyja holds up her second palm. "Fine." She begins another chant
[20:27] <13@DeathStar> <John> Everyone, hold on.
[20:27] <13SPoC> 6Dias stands up finally. 1"Onto what?"
15[20:28] * 13@Marcus lets out a whistle. "She's fucking strong." His body tenses and jerks as it begins to tranform, his amrs jerk upward to grab for her neck.
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hits the breaks hard. Cheryl grabs the hole to keep from being thrown off, but that does little for Alpha ARiel and Marcus
15[20:28] * 13@Jennifer` grabs tighter to the side, her fake hand bending metal a little. "T-Tight as it gets!"
15[20:28] * 13Freyja sprawls vines from within the van outside, aiming to ensnare Cheryl at the same time she forms a torrential wind across the van
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina holds onto the seat.
[20:28] <13SPoC> 6Dias tumbles and slams into a seat infront of him.
[20:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin slams into a seat.
15[20:29] * 13SPoC shifts forward, her feet bracing herself.
[20:29] <13@Marcus> * Theron jerks, trying to keep himself upright, but it does land on Dias.
[20:29] <13@Marcus> NRP: he*
15[20:29] * 13@Marcus urks, being throwng with Ariel.
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> Now that is a new record distance.
[20:29] <13SPoC> 6Dias begins muttering.
15[20:29] * 13Freyja blinks and adjusts to try and grasp Marcus as well
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl breaks the vines off, and pulls herself into the van
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Freyja would fail.
[20:29] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts and moves to pull himself upright. "My Apologies. Dias."
15[20:30] * 13Sardis readjusts himself " Ok- WHAT the FUCK just happened? "
15[20:30] * 13@Marcus attempts to use his hind legs to claw upward to knock Ariel off of himself, after they roll for a bit, at least.
[20:30] <13@Myria> We lost Marcus.
[20:30] <13SPoC> <Dias> it's alirght. It's just me. Dias the pillow. 6He grabs the seat back and pulls himself up
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel lets go, sliding to a stop. John hits the gas again, driving at the two
15[20:31] * 13@Marcus glances over his shoulder and attempts to jump back, shifting enough to land on the van. Despite what injuries he may have got from the fall.
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina eyes John, like he's insane. Marcus would land successfully
[20:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel begins to rise when John runs her over
15[20:32] * 13Freyja moves her hands toward the front of the van, starting another chant
[20:32] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Hmmm. It would appear we have hit something. *he notes, glancing up*
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> I can see why you're the team genuis.
15[20:32] * 13@Marcus skids across the top, then shifts to climb back inside, transforming back after he does so.
[20:32] <13SPoC> <Dias> So anyone care to tell me what happened while I was rudely stunned?
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pants heavily, holding her chest
[20:33] <13@Marcus> <Kane> There is a roadblock 4.3 miles ahead. *he says now, eyeing John*
15[20:33] * 13@Jennifer` looks around, "So are we safe now? Hey Marcus is back!"
[20:33] <13Sardis> No. No one cares to tell you.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> <John> Define 'roadblock'
[20:33] <13Freyja> Cheryl, come here...
[20:33] <13SPoC> <Dias> You, you don't count anymore. 6He looks over at Cheryl, raising a brow. 1"You good?"
[20:33] <13@Myria> What is the plan now? And why did we materialize in the worst situation possible?
[20:33] <13@Marcus> There is a line of policemen and military waiting to blow us up.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> I'm pissed
[20:33] <13@Marcus> NRP: Kane*
[20:33] <13SPoC> <Dias> So...Nothing unusual?
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Freyja. "Can't move just yet."
15[20:34] * 13Freyja nods and shifts unsteadily toward her
15[20:34] * 13@Marcus reahces out to close the doors to the back of the van, he lets out a breath. "Alpha Ariel is fucking scary."
09[20:34] <13@Jennifer`> "How long have we been gone...?"
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh, that type of roadblock. I'm sure we can just...you know. Run through it.
[20:34] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...I want front row. 6He begins climbing over the seats to get to the front
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* As Marcus does so, ALpha Ariel leans up from under the van, grabbing him
15[20:35] * 13@Marcus widens his eyes. "What the fuck!? She's like a machine!" He pauses. "Right." He grabs onto her hand, trying to fall back into the van with all his buddies.
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina jerks in shock. "Marcus!"
[20:35] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I wouldn't attempt it. But that is me.
15[20:35] * 13Sardis looks over surprisedly, lunging to Grab Marcus's leg or anything else
15[20:35] * 13@Jennifer` mvoes to sit with Natalie again, looking over at the source of renewed chaos.
15[20:35] * 13SPoC looks behind herself at the happenings, but doesn't make a move with too many people in the way
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sighs, and twists the wheel to move into an alley. His driving is rather shoddy, so the back of the van slams into the wall. Alpha Ariel is roughly ripped off the van
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sorry. Turned too fast.
15[20:36] * 13Freyja eyes toward Marcus and drops her palm, bringing up earthen spires from the street toward Ariel
[20:36] <13SPoC> 6Dias sticks his head between John and Kane than slams his head into the side of the seat.
09[20:36] <13@Jennifer`> "I-It's fine, I think you just saved us again."
15[20:36] * 13@Marcus lands in the back of the van roughly, breathing heavily.
15[20:36] * 13Freyja kneels, quickly shifting focus to Cheryl
[20:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel destroys the spires, standing there and watching the van move away
15[20:36] * 13Sardis moves to close the back doors once Marcus is safely inside
[20:37] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Forces are moving. If we are quick, we can outrun them.
[20:37] <13Freyja> Quite the mother you have.
[20:37] <13SPoC> 6Dias curses as he shakes his head, he looks ahead. 1"Wait? You're not gonna break a blockade?
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Tch. That's not Ariel.
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> You see this crappy model we're in?
[20:37] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Perhaps next time you should aquire a faster one?
[20:37] <13SPoC> <Dias> You couldn't have stolen something better? 6He looks at John, wide-eyed
[20:38] <13Freyja> I know that. I met your mother-- quite intimately at one point.
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <John> I needed the room.
15[20:38] * 13@Jennifer` looks aroud at the ruined van. "Next time you should steal a tank or something."
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> That's Alpha Ariel. One of the deadliest Alphas.
15[20:38] * 13Freyja focuses on trying to slow Cheryl's condition
[20:38] <13@Marcus> The first to be made from Mother, right? *he glances at Cheryl*
[20:38] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...Oh. Yeah, we appreciate room.
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> That would be her. *winces* If this reality is like ours
[20:39] <13Freyja> Try to take it easy.
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin leans toward the front. "Can you tell us what is going on?"
[20:39] <13@Myria> John McCormick, how did you know to rescue us?
[20:39] <13@Marcus> Yeah, she's scarier than you. Sorry. *he sits up, rubbing his neck slowly*
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Like hell. They took Chii.
09[20:39] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah... what's going on exactly?"
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> <John> It was accident, really. We sorta spoted you guys appearing and sorta ... you know. Improvised.
[20:39] <13Freyja> I know. I'm counting on you, so take it easy for now
09[20:39] <13@Jennifer`> "Well we're lucky then."
[20:40] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I had a plan. *he notes with a sigh*
09[20:40] <13@Jennifer`> "How long has it been since we attacked the building?"
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> <John> About 2 days.
[20:40] <13SPoC> 6Dias glances at Kane than leans close to John, covering his mouth. 1"Psst, who's the nerd sidekick?
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes the rearview mirror. "Son of a bitch. She's still after us."
[20:40] <13@Marcus> <Theron> William Spade knew that we would arrive. Do you know how that is possible?
09[20:40] <13@Jennifer`> "N-No wonder they said so soon... it's been a lot longer for us."
[20:41] <13SPoC> 6Dias glances behind them. 1"Really?"
[20:41] <13@Marcus> * Kane pauses and glances over his shoulder.
[20:41] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts to peer out the window, is Ariel running?
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel runs on foot after them
15[20:41] * 13@Jennifer` looks back at Ariel. "She's creepy."
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> A lot longer, eh? That explanis why you have boobs now.
15[20:42] * 13SPoC looks up at John, eyeing him dangerously
[20:42] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Go faster, John.
15[20:42] * 13@Jennifer` blushes and looks back at him. "I-I... well yeah..."
[20:42] <13@Myria> And why our roster is a bit different than ot was before.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah, that too.
[20:42] <13SPoC> <Dias> How far behind us is she?
[20:42] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts to lift himself up out of the hole, so he can aim with his rifle and fire stunning shots at Ariel.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> Uh, I don't know. ... objects appear closer than they really are?
[20:43] <13SPoC> <Dias> What if you slammed the breaks?
[20:43] <13@Myria> Then she would probably kill us.
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... 6* He does so without warning. Paladin hits the seat, and Katrina does as well. She curses
09[20:43] <13@Jennifer`> "She'd catch up to us really fast?"
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Johnathan!
09[20:43] <13@Jennifer`> "EEEK!"
[20:43] <13SPoC> 6Dias tumbles forward, hitting the dash with a loud thud
15[20:43] * 13@Jennifer` holds onto something, SPoC.
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel slams into the back of the van, denting it
[20:43] <13@Marcus> * Theron urks and falls backward, trying to catch himself before he goes flying.
15[20:43] * 13Freyja shifts to cushion Cheryl
15[20:43] * 13@Marcus slides up to the front, grunting.
[20:44] <13@Marcus> * Kane jerks. "I am going to have wiplash."
[20:44] <13SPoC> 6SPoC hits the seat behind her, wincing
[20:44] <13@Myria> EEEEEE!
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hits the gas again.
15[20:44] * 13Sardis grabs the seat infront of him, retreiving a pistol
[20:44] <13SPoC> 6Dias tumbls back, flaling on his ass.
15[20:44] * 13@Jennifer` is cushioned by Natalie.
[20:44] <13Sardis> Like this damn thing will do any good..
15[20:44] * 13SPoC looks down at Jen. 1"I believe it would be wise if you buckled your seatbelt
15[20:44] * 13@Jennifer` nods and buckles up now. "Kay."
[20:44] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts to get back inside. "I do not think I will be getting out of this van anymore."
[20:45] <13Sardis> So how do you kill these Dragoons anyway? Surely one of you must have an idea. *he looks over the group
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> <John> So, yeah, apparantly most of them got out of the building before it blew up. And somehow they managed to either retrieve Erevis, or made a new one. Either way, they're controller her somehow.
[20:45] <13@Marcus> Made a new one?
[20:45] <13SPoC> 6Dias shakes his head, dazed
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> <John> I don't know! I thought she went boom
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* The back doors of the van rip open and Alpha Ariel aims inside it
[20:45] <13@Myria> It must be Spade. He's controlled people in our reality. Look out!
15[20:46] * 13@Marcus jerks. "Fuck! Fuck!"
15[20:46] * 13@Jennifer` looks back, "TROUBLE!"
[20:46] <13@Marcus> * Theron pulls up his rifle and fires an full auto barrage.
15[20:46] * 13Sardis turns quickly, aiming and firing his pistol at Ariel's head
15[20:46] * 13SPoC raises her pistol and fires a shot for Ariels hand
[20:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is shot off and falls down again on the street
[20:46] <13Freyja> Enough... Jeez
[20:46] <13@DeathStar> <John> So yeah. Oh, by the way kiddo, your mom kinda got arrested.
15[20:46] * 13Sardis continues firing at Ariel even after she hits the pavement
[20:47] <13Sardis> We need explosives.
09[20:47] <13@Jennifer`> "My mom...?"
15[20:47] * 13Freyja lifts both palms and chants angrily, bringing both down, casting wind and ice upon Ariel
15[20:47] * 13@Jennifer` looks forward. "Why'd she get arrested?"
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'd say because you helped us take on Cran's people.
[20:47] <13SPoC> If they were expecting us, they most likely have her for leverage.
[20:47] <13@Myria> Guilt by asssociation is my guess.
[20:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina lets out a breath of air. John does his best not to meet her glare
15[20:48] * 13@Jennifer` looks down, "It's my fault..."
[20:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin shakes his head. "Our Alphas are dying. We need to find Alexander Cran to find out how to stop the process."
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* John lets out a whistle. "Going after the big man. You got balls."
[20:49] <13SPoC> <Dias> I gotta question. 6He raises his hand.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah?
[20:49] <13@Myria> We were sent by our reality's clone of Alexander Cran.
[20:49] <13SPoC> <Dias> What did they make your alpha's from?
[20:49] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I don't believe balls has anything to do with it. That is just moronic."
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <John> I don't really know.
15[20:49] * 13Freyja attempts to either freeze or bury Ariel while they escape
[20:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Sadly, poor Ariel was left far, far behind
15[20:50] * 13Sardis watches the street disapear behind them as he waits on guard
09[20:50] <13@Jennifer`> "Probably the same thing... we have all the same Alpha's in this reality... Dad was Zephyr's pilot."
[20:50] <13SPoC> <Dias> Well, maybe I'm just having a moment of intelligence but couldn't we just get a dna sample from their Cheryl instead?
[20:50] <13@Marcus> * Theron glances at Paladin, then Dias.
[20:50] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Her DNA is different than our Cheryl's.
[20:51] <13SPoC> I do not believe that will help the others.
15[20:51] * 13Freyja huffs and leans back to recover
[20:51] <13SPoC> <Dias> It is?! How?
15[20:51] * 13@Jennifer` sits back looking terribly depressed, she gently leans against Natalie.
[20:51] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> The different reality markers.
15[20:51] * 13@Marcus rubs his face and moves to sit up fully now. "Different DNA markers for this reality, don't you remember?
[20:51] <13@Marcus> * Theron looks down, it seemed he was hopeful that Dias was on to something.
[20:51] <13SPoC> <Dias> It's just a marker. 6He shrugs "I figured it was like a green shirt from a blue shirt
[20:51] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Perhaps.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> It might could be used as as another option, though. Maybe our Alexander Cran could figure something out from her DNA
[20:52] <13@Myria> If I had a sample of the genetic material of both Cheryl's, I could run an analysis.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Myria
09[20:52] <13@Jennifer`> "It's nto like we have to look for them... Cran's after all of us..."
[20:52] <13SPoC> It would be nice. But I do not see how that would cure the other Alphas.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Natalie is right
[20:52] <13SPoC> <Dias> Well either way, I'll get into a fight.
[20:52] <13@Myria> What? I'm not an expert, but I could at least get some data.
[20:53] <13Sardis> Well- why dont we just turn around and go punch the other Cheryl in the mouth? Collect the blood from the split lip? You know. It'll be just that easy. right?
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* As Dias says this, a missile slams into the ground in front of them. John jerks the van around the hole
[20:53] <13@Marcus> <Theron> We do not have time for something so time consumin, Miss Myria.
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> <John> Kane! Kane, I'm being shot at!
15[20:53] * 13@Jennifer` doesn't move or react to the jerking about, she just keeps looking down.
[20:53] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I'm working on it.
15[20:53] * 13Sardis sighs " What is it now.. "
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* John leans his head out the window, peering up. "Attack shuttle is following us."
[20:54] <13@Myria> I was talking about a hypothetical.
[20:54] <13SPoC> 6Dias braces himself. 1"Don't you guys have any missiles?
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> <John> Of course. Where ever did I put my missile button.
[20:54] <13Sardis> Then we need to be in a heavily populated area- they wouldnt fire on civilians.
[20:54] <13@Marcus> * Kane pauses and glances out the window. "Ah yes, it blended in with our blip on my screen."
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Sardis, then jerks the wheel. "Hold on."
[20:55] <13SPoC> <Dias> That's if they care about civilians.
09[20:55] <13@Jennifer`> "Don't count on that..."
[20:55] <13@Marcus> And if it's Cran. Yeah right. *he lets out a laugh*
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> <John> So anyway. Getting the President would be difficult. Even for you guys.
[20:55] <13SPoC> <Dias> What? I'm here.
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> <John> Don't suppose you guys brought Carmichael with you. He'd be helpful.
[20:55] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Mr. Spade most likely already knows our plan. If the rumors of his abilities are true.
[20:56] <13SPoC> <Dias> In spirit.
09[20:56] <13@Jennifer`> "Dad's dead..."
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* John blinks.
15[20:56] * 13SPoC looks at Theron. 1"If that is true, I agree.
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* John just revs the engine, as the attack shuttle opens fire at the van from above.
[20:57] <13@Marcus> * Kane works on trying to remote hack the shuttle in the meantime, but that's not an easy task.
[20:57] <13@Myria> If we had Setsuna around, we could put up a screen against Spade's mental abilities. Unfortunately, that option is an impossibility.
[20:57] <13Freyja> ... His heart... Heheh. Anyway, I won't be able to borrow Cran or take you to him. That man would know where I come
[20:57] <13@DeathStar> <John> Hmmmm.
[20:58] <13SPoC> <Dias> We could always just drop a big bomb on him.
[20:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* John drives through a park - it seems especially crowded today, with people jumping left and right
[20:58] <13@DeathStar> <John> Move. Move. 6* He holds down the horn. The shuttle does indeed stop firing
15[20:58] * 13@Jennifer` closes her eyes and sighs deeply.
[20:58] <13SPoC> 6Dias acts casual. 1"Nice park you guys got here."
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> <John> First thing's first. Escape, then have Kane come up with a plan that I'll totally disregard.
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances at Dias instead of the road. "I think so, too."
09[20:59] <13@Jennifer`> "Same base as before or a new one...?"
15[20:59] * 13Sardis eyes the Shuttle " If anyone has a high calibur rifle, I'd suggest using it on the missile just before it disengages from their firing port. Might destract them long enough to make some headway if not disable their missile system. "
[20:59] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Yet somehow you manage to succeed. *he notes with disdain*
[20:59] <13@Myria> Theron, your rifle!
[20:59] <13SPoC> It would not be an easy task.
[21:00] <13@Marcus> * Theron shakes his head. "If the shuttle were to crash, innocent would be killed. I will not do it."
[21:00] <13SPoC> 6Dias suddenly leans forward, staring past Kane at a girl.
[21:00] <13Sardis> Then give it to me- I will.
[21:00] <13@Marcus> NRP: innocents.
[21:00] <13SPoC> <Dias> She was kinda cute.
[21:00] <13@Marcus> <Theron> I will do no such thing.
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Sardis, we are not going to endanger innocents.
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* John jerks the wheel, moving to get out of the park and away from people again.
15[21:01] * 13Sardis pulls a gun on Theron, moving to thrust it at him then stops, lowering it as Paladin speaks up
15[21:01] * 13Sardis smirks at Theron " Got lucky. "
[21:01] <13@Myria> Don't you dare pull a gun on Theron!
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin eyes Sardis. "And if you ever pull your weapons on another of my members, I will kill you myself. Understood?"
[21:01] <13@Marcus> * Theron narrows his eyes. "The next time you aim your weapon at me. It will be your last."
15[21:02] * 13SPoC stares at Sardis.
[21:02] <13@Marcus> * Kane glances at Dias with a frown, since he distracted him slightly, but gets back onto his task.
[21:02] <13Sardis> Fine- fine. Get us all killed Mr. General. *He leans back in his seat, detached.
15[21:02] * 13@Jennifer` just flops against Natalie and closes her eyes.
[21:02] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...Don't like chicks? 6He tilts his head at Kane
[21:02] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Upon our return, perhaps you could request another Tsiv for our team. *he asks Paladin*
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The shuttle begins to fire again now that they're away from people
15[21:02] * 13@Jennifer` looks at Dias. "He's got a girlfriend."
[21:03] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Busy. Working.
15[21:03] * 13Sardis places his weapon away, eyeing Theron with amusement
[21:03] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...Like a Dawn kind of girlfriend? 6He looks back at Jennifer
09[21:03] <13@Jennifer`> "Theyw ouldn't stop making out last time we were here. And no, it's Angela."
[21:03] <13@Myria> Theron, I think they are all pretty much like this...
[21:03] <13SPoC> 6Dias coughs.
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Alright, Theron. Take it down
[21:04] <13@Marcus> * Theron nods and pulls up his rifle shifting to climb halfway out of the hole.
[21:04] <13@Marcus> * Theron takes aim, while Kane continues to work on hacking it, just in case Theron fails.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* John keeps the van as steady as he can with them being shot at.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The shuttle begins to fire a missile
[21:05] <13@Marcus> * Theron would fire at that missile.
[21:05] <13Sardis> Aim carefully.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The missile explodes, taking out the shuttle. It spins wildly and explodes in the air, sending pieces of scrap metal flying outward. John lets out a sigh of relief
[21:05] <13@Marcus> * Theron drops back into the van and moves to his seat without a word.
[21:05] <13SPoC> That was a nice shot. 6She nods to Theron
[21:06] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Thank you. *he bows his head*
15[21:06] * 13@Jennifer` looks at Dias, then Kane and shrugs, the subject enough to get her mind off the obvious for now.
[21:06] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I was almost there. *he says with a frown*
[21:06] <13SPoC> <Dias> Huh...If that doesn't beat all.
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin nods to Theron
[21:07] <13@Myria> Thank you, Theron...
[21:07] <13@Marcus> * Theron nods slightly to Paladin.
09[21:07] <13@Jennifer`> "Different realities... not everything turns out the same I guess..."
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances at Katrina, then ahead. "I guess not."
[21:07] <13@Marcus> * Kane checks to see if they are being followed or traced anymore.
[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Kane would pick up a tracer under the van
[21:08] <13@Marcus> <Kane> There is a tracer under he van. Dias could you remove it?
[21:08] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...How?
[21:08] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Climb under the van and remove it, of course.
[21:08] <13SPoC> <Dias> While we're driving?
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> <John> Too much for you?
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* John gives him a grin
[21:09] <13@Marcus> <Kane> It would appear he is afraid.
[21:09] <13SPoC> <Dias> No, I'm just amused. 6He stands up and moves to the side door, sliding it open. He sticks his head down and looks under the van
[21:09] <13@Marcus> * Kane checks to see the general location so he can give Dias the heads up.
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* In the middle of the van is a blinking red device
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Dias. "That looks dangerous, Dias."
[21:10] <13SPoC> <Dias> And? 6He leans grabs the edge of the van and starts to shifts
15[21:10] * 13@Marcus glances at Kat, then looks at Dias. "Pride."
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> <John> Speed bump!
[21:10] <13SPoC> 6Dias hooks his foot onto the van floor and his hand then pulls himself up suddenly
[21:11] <13SPoC> <Dias> What?
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The van bounces
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> <John> I said good luck.
15[21:11] * 13@Marcus shakes his head, laughing slightly.
[21:11] <13SPoC> <Dias> Oh. Thanks. 6He swings himself under the van, holding onto the floor edge as he reaches for the tracer
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> <John> Damn that was close. 6* He mumbles, clearly not doing that intentionally
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias would grasp the tracer
09[21:12] <13@Jennifer`> "Smooth John."
[21:12] <13SPoC> 6Dias yanks it off and starts to pull himself back inside
[21:13] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Other than that tracer, it would appear we are home free. Your plan worked, yet again
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> <John> Don't they always>
[21:13] <13SPoC> <Dias> So...About the tracer? 6He holds it up
09[21:13] <13@Jennifer`> "Shouldn't we like... throw it away?"
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> <John> Throw it away.
[21:13] <13SPoC> 6Dias leans out the doorway, looking for something to throw it at, then just hurls it
[21:14] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Hmmm. *he refuses to comment any futhur on John's luck*
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> <John> Alright, lets get back to base, where we can talk without people trying to kill us
[21:14] <13@Marcus> I like that idea.
09[21:14] <13@Jennifer`> "That'd be nice."
[21:14] <13SPoC> <Dias> Is there going to be ice cream?
09[21:15] <13@Jennifer`> "That'd be better."
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at Dias slowly. "We don't have ice cream in this reality"
[21:16] <13SPoC> <Dias> You've got strippers atleast, right? 6He looks worried
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> Strip-what?
[21:16] <13SPoC> 6Dias' eyes go wide.
09[21:16] <13@Jennifer`> "Nope, none of those either."
15[21:16] * 13Sardis shakes his head and looks out the window
[21:16] <13SPoC> <Dias> You're reality sucks.
[21:16] <13@Marcus> * Kane peers at John and then Dias, looking ahead.
[21:16] <13@DeathStar> <John> Also, in this reality, there's only one sex position
[21:17] <13SPoC> <Dias> Please don't tell me it's missionary. It's the most boring position
09[21:17] <13@Jennifer`> "We also don't have beer."
15[21:17] * 13@Myria covers her mouth to stop a laugh from Dias' reactions.
[21:17] <13@Marcus> * Theron looks at Dias, amused.
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'm afraid so, Dias, I'm afraid so
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head, a tiny smile on her face. A bit sad, but a bit amused
[21:17] <13SPoC> 6Dias slams his fist onto his palm. 1"Than it'll be my secondary mission to teach all woman what real sex is like around here.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> <John> Shit. Speaking of women, I hope Zephyr got away.
15[21:18] * 13@Marcus glances at Kat slightly, looking ahead at Dias.
09[21:18] <13@Jennifer`> "I-I hope she did too..."
[21:18] <13Freyja> Zephyr was there...?
[21:18] <13@Marcus> * Kane pauses and looks annoyed, attempting to get a fix on her location, though that may be impossible.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah. We had her shoot and distract Spade for us.
[21:18] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yeah. That giant beam attack.
[21:19] <13@Marcus> Thought that attack seemed familier.
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> <John> I'd have done it myself, naturally, but I can't do beam attacks. ... In this reality. 6* He adds.
[21:19] <13SPoC> <Dias> I used to. 6He crosses his arms, huffing
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer`> "Yeah but you get those creepy black lines all over."
[21:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She looks asleep, but clearly is listening in
[21:20] <13@Marcus> In our reality all the cool kids can shoot beams.
[21:20] <13@DeathStar> <John> Then where's the fun of a good ol' fist fight?
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer`> "But you two can't anymore... d-does that mean you're not cool now?"
[21:20] <13SPoC> <Dias> I get reality like powers and I can't even shoot a beam from my finger
15[21:21] * 13@Marcus shrugs. "Guess so."
[21:21] <13SPoC> <Dias> Atleast my lesdar still works.
[21:21] <13Sardis> I get this pistol... I uh.. I use this pistol.
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pulls up into a garage of a rather run down looking building complex
[21:22] <13SPoC> <Dias> Nice shanty.
[21:22] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Inside it is a luxurious hotel.
09[21:22] <13@Jennifer`> "Better then Cran's cells."
[21:22] <13SPoC> <Dias> I'd of made it a house of burlesque
[21:23] <13@Myria> As long as we are safe for the time being.
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> <John> Safe as can be.
[21:23] <13@Marcus> Why do I not feel very safe, then?
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin lets out some air through his nostrils, then moves to get out, holding a hand out to Freyja
[21:23] <13SPoC> <Dias> Because you're a wuss now.
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> <John> Because you're pessimistic.
[21:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* John climbs out.
[21:24] <13SPoC> <Dias> That's what I keep telling him. 6He climbs out himself
15[21:24] * 13@Jennifer` looks at SPoC and gets up, climbing out.
[21:24] <13@Marcus> Jeez. Screw you guys.
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina gets out as well now
15[21:24] * 13SPoC gets out after Kat
[21:24] <13@Marcus> * Kane shifts to get out of the van.
15[21:24] * 13Sardis follows them out of the van, raising a brow at the garage
15[21:24] * 13@Marcus hops out of the van. Theron gets out as well.
[21:24] <13Sardis> This. Is your base?
[21:25] <13SPoC> <Dias> He's quite the observer. 6He notes to John
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> <John> .... 6* He moves to the door that leads to the building complex.
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> <John> He's Tsivrixsh. They don't have much thinking cells
15[21:25] * 13@Jennifer` moves after John. "Maybe he thinks garages make good bases."
[21:25] <13SPoC> <Dias> Not really, no. 6He rests his hands behind his neck as he moves after John
15[21:25] * 13@Myria climbs out of the van.
[21:25] <13@Marcus> * Kane moves by John, putting the Datapad away.
[21:25] <13Sardis> Ow. That one hurt. I think I need medical attention *he drones in John's direction
15[21:25] * 13SPoC follows after Jennifer, her eyes curiously looking around
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl slides out, her breathing controlled agian
15[21:26] * 13@Marcus glances at Cheryl, then moves forward now that she looks ok enough.
[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* The building seems to be an old school like building, judging by it's layout, once upon a time. As they move into the area, they are quickly brought into what was probably the cafeteria
09[21:27] <13@Jennifer`> "This is what I get for skipping school to see realities right?"
[21:27] <13@Marcus> * Theron glances about curiously.
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> <John> My motto is to stay in school. Literally.
[21:27] <13SPoC> <Dias> Nice.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> <John> Thanks! No one else where seemed to appreciate it
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> *here
[21:28] <13@Marcus> * Kane eyes John and moves for his computer area.
[21:28] <13SPoC> <Dias> They don't understand your genius like I do.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves after them. "What can you tell us about Cran?"
09[21:28] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "We've heard it too much Johnny." *Angela meets kane halways to his computer area*
[21:29] <13@Myria> *whispers to Theron* Dias is such a poser.
[21:29] <13@Marcus> * Theron nods lightly.
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* John sits down. His outfit, upon closer look, is a brown long coat, with a reddish rust color shirt, and jeans
[21:29] <13@Marcus> * Kane shifts to kiss her on the cheek, moving over to upload the data from the mission. "Any word from Alpha Zephyr?"
09[21:29] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Not a peep... but you know her."
[21:30] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Hmmm.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well, the President mostly stays in his primary new base, in the middle of the city. Place is like a fort.
[21:30] <13SPoC> 6Dias grabs a chair and plops onto it, resting his hand on the back of it.
15[21:30] * 13@Marcus rubs the back of his head. "This place makes me want a chicken pattie sandwich."
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances at Marcus with a look
09[21:30] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela kisses him back and sighs a little, sitting back with him.
09[21:30] <13@Jennifer`> "Me too..."
[21:31] <13@Marcus> * Kane studies the information, probably trying to scientifically prove how John's plan worked.
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sits down as well, a bit away from John, whjich seems fine by him
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer`> "When did we last eat?"
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> About 5 hours ago
[21:31] <13@Marcus> We had chicken pattie sandwiches like every day for lunch. That and mashes potatoes. Go figure. *he shrugs*
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin sits as well. "Do you have a layout of the base?"
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> <John> 'fraid not.
[21:31] <13SPoC> <Dias> We should just go through the front door.
09[21:32] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Dear, you forgot to factor in chaos theory and the planetary alignement."
[21:32] <13@DeathStar> <John> I said that, but Kane told me it had a .000000001% chance, and that he only added the 1 so it wouldn't be an indefinite amount
[21:32] <13SPoC> <Dias> Fine, we'll go for the back door. They always love that.
[21:33] <13@Marcus> * Kane glances at Angela and makes a face. "The alignment should have little consequence."
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl plops down as well now
[21:33] <13@Marcus> Unless you catch them by surprise Dias. Then they won't like that.
15[21:33] * 13SPoC stands, watching them too
09[21:33] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela grins at him and kisses him again. "How about the weather in Hong Kong?"
[21:33] <13SPoC> <Dias> Sometimes that's the only way to do it.
[21:33] <13@DeathStar> <John> We were actually looking into ways to get Mrs. Carmichael out of jail
[21:33] <13@Marcus> * Kane rolls his eyes, but smiles.
15[21:33] * 13@Jennifer` looks over, snapping to attention. "You were?"
[21:34] <13SPoC> 6Dias slowly looks at Kat. 1"Watch that man. He's a tricky one."
15[21:34] * 13@Marcus holds up his hands in surrender. "He lies."
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina raises a brow. John gets distracted now by Dias, Kat, and Marcus, staring at Katrina
[21:34] <13SPoC> <Dias> I could so many a doggie style joke right now.
[21:35] <13@Marcus> Cut it out, man. Sheesh.
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs, eyeing the ground now
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... Right
09[21:35] <13@Jennifer`> "You can get her out... right?"
[21:35] <13@Myria> Ummm, shouldn't we talk about the plan?
[21:35] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yes. Back to the impossible fortress or whatever. 6He waves his hands. 1"Let's just crash a shuttle into it.
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Jennifer. "We don't really have the man power right now."
15[21:36] * 13@Jennifer` looks around the room. "You don't?"
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well, now we do.
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> We should focus on Cran first.
[21:36] <13@Marcus> <Theron> I concur. Miss Cheryl has little time.
09[21:36] <13@Jennifer`> "R-Right... the mission..."
[21:37] <13@Marcus> * Kane pauses, getting a blurb of information, his face slides into a frown. "We have a problem."
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> Define 'problem'.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances at Kane, as does Paladin
09[21:38] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> *peers over at it* Oh joy.
[21:38] <13SPoC> 6Dias looks over at Kane
[21:38] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Jennifer's mother will be executed at 8 this evening.
15[21:38] * 13SPoC tilts her head at Kane
15[21:38] * 13@Marcus arches a brow and glances at the time.
15[21:38] * 13@Jennifer` slowly looks over at Kane.
[21:38] <13SPoC> <Dias> Oh that's such a total bait move.
[21:38] <13@Marcus> <Kane> I agree. They are luring us out.
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Marcus' watch claims it's 11 A.M.
[21:39] <13SPoC> <Dias> Well I hate to disappoint. 6He stands up.
[21:39] <13@Marcus> My watch says 11. What time is it in this palce?
15[21:39] * 13Sardis sits back, listening to the humans
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> ... which means if we focus on this, the less time Cheryl has
[21:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl waves her hand. "Forget about it. Save the kid's mother."
[21:39] <13@Marcus> <Kane> We have 5 hours until execution.
15[21:39] * 13@Jennifer` nearly falls over taking a seat. She looks like she's going to snap.
[21:39] <13SPoC> <Dias> That's my Cheryl. The super heros code burns brightly in her.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts
[21:40] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Why don't we split into two teams?
[21:40] <13SPoC> That would be unwise.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> <John> Bad idea
[21:40] <13Sardis> Depletes our forces.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> They're right
15[21:40] * 13Sardis chuckles at the upheavel of responses
[21:40] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Hmmm. Very well. I sense they would not expect such a move though.
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> <John> They got William Spade. They'll probably guess any move we make
[21:41] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Ah yes. I had forgotten about him. *he bows his head*
[21:41] <13SPoC> 6Dias claps his hands together, than rubs them. 1"So we'll just have to take him out.
09[21:41] <13@Jennifer`> "Momma..." *she says quietly, staring at the floor*
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> <John> I could use a good fight.
09[21:41] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela frowns, "Well, whatever we do we better decide fast, we need time to plan if we're going to save her."
[21:41] <13SPoC> <Dias> I always love a good fight.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> Plan? What is this 'plan'?
09[21:42] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "What kane thinks up and you twist into a chaotic ball of luck."
[21:42] <13SPoC> <Dias> Plans are for people who don't trust in their own senses.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> <John> That plan. Right. We'll give him 3 hours to make his plan. It'll make him feel better.
[21:43] <13@Marcus> * Kane eyes John. "Why don't you just go bumrush the prison right now?"
[21:43] <13SPoC> <Dias> ....I like his plan
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> <John> I would never deny you the joy of making a plan.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin sighs, crossing his arms.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Same ol' John
09[21:43] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "...It'd actually be a plan, wouldn't it? We give them less time to set up an ambush."
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* John glances at Katrina, clearing his throat. "Well. You know me."
[21:43] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Hmm. Alright. *he gets onto that, pulling up blueprints and such to figure out where the execution will take place*
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> Ut. I'm not moving until 3 hours
[21:44] <13SPoC> <Dias> What if you have to pee?
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> <John> Nice,
09[21:44] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela yawns and looks at Kane. "Want some coffee hun?"
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pats Dias once, then moves out of the room. "I suggest you all bunker down and relax."
[21:44] <13@Marcus> <Kane> No need. John drove the van.
09[21:45] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Great, you won't sleep for days. I may need to take advantage of this."
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin lets an annoyed sigh and moves to find a place to sit
[21:45] <13SPoC> 6Dias smiles widely, he suddenly loses it as he looks at Angela. 1"Missionary...Blah."
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina watches John go, then speaks to Marcus. "It's strange, seeing him again."
[21:45] <13@Marcus> <Kane> ...*he says nothing, probably not that open about their lovelife*
[21:46] <13SPoC> You're mother will be fine, Jennifer. 6She rests her hand on her shoulder
09[21:46] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela rolls her eyes and turns her attention to a computer screen.
15[21:46] * 13@Marcus nods once. "I'd say so. You don't want to...talk to him or anything though" He notes the fact John is probably alone now.
15[21:46] * 13@Jennifer` juumps a little and looks up at Natalie, then hugs onto her.
15[21:46] * 13@Myria lets out a breath and sits down.
[21:46] <13SPoC> 6Dias puts his hands behind his head as he glances around. He moves off into a hallway, exploring for now.
[21:46] <13@Marcus> * Theron peers at Myria curiously.
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Maybe later.
15[21:48] * 13@Marcus nods and rubs his face. "Well. That's your choice, really." He gives her a half smile.
[21:48] <13@Marcus> * Kane tchs and scratches the side of his face.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina just nods slowly, not really returning the smile
[21:49] <13SPoC> 6Dias moves along the halls, peering about.
[21:49] <13@Marcus> Well, if there's anything I can do for you. Don't hesitate to ask. Alright?
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias would seem various classrooms that are empty of desks. One is set up like a bedroom, and John is laying on a futon
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela leans over a little and rests against Kane. Smiling a bit. "You'll come up with something."
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Okay.
[21:50] <13@Marcus> <Kane> It would better if I knew Alpha Zephyr's location. Her abilities would increase out chances by 5%.
[21:50] <13@Marcus> NRP: Be Better*
[21:50] <13SPoC> 6Dias skips to a stop, poking his head into the room. 1"Sweet room."
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl leans on a wall, her eyes closed, looking annoyed.
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* John peers at him, hands behind his head. "I find it homey."
[21:50] <13@Myria> What is it?
09[21:51] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "I can try to contact her again. She might be a bit more responsive knowing it's Carmichael's wife and kid on the line."
[21:51] <13SPoC> <Dias> You should put more...shiney things in here.
[21:51] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Hmm. Nothing. *he shakes his head slightly*
[21:51] <13@Marcus> <Kane> If perhaps she is in a situation where stealth is key. Your communication would put her at risk.
[21:51] <13Sardis> Whats got you so pissed? *Asks Sardis, taking to the wall beside Cheryl
[21:51] <13SPoC> It would be best if you sat for awhile and tried to relax, Jennifer.
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> They took Chii. 6* She states flatly.
09[21:52] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "You're right... bleh... I could always try building something to help out... though we're short on time."
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> <John> Shiney...things
[21:52] <13@Myria> Come on, tell me.
15[21:52] * 13@Jennifer` just hold onto Natalie, not letting go.
[21:52] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Too short. *he notes*
[21:52] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yeah, like I just had a gold statue made of my defeating a planet sized Ridarium.
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John stares at him now.
15[21:52] * 13@Marcus lets out a breath, sitting by Kat, he puts a hand on her shoulder.
[21:52] <13Sardis> The good news is we're about to break into their holding facility. We'll get her back, surely.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> If they took her there
[21:53] <13SPoC> <Dias> Or was it planet eating. 6He shrugs. 1"Let's just say it was huge.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> <John> You're a trip, alternate Dias
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina glances toward Marcus
[21:53] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...Oh! 6He snaps his fingers. 1"I defeated a guy who felt like Death."
[21:53] <13Sardis> If not you'll destroy the whole base untill you find her right? So whats to worry about.
09[21:53] <13@Jennifer`> "This is all my fault..."
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Plenty.
15[21:54] * 13@Marcus isn't really looking at Kat. But it would appear this is his half-assed attempt to comfort her.
15[21:54] * 13SPoC frowns slightly. 1"It is not your fault Jennifer.
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> <John> Yeah? Well, I defeated...uh... ... God!
15[21:54] * 13@Myria looks at Theron.
[21:54] <13SPoC> <Dias> Really! I missed out on that fight. 6He scuffs his foot, actually mad about it
09[21:55] <13@Jennifer`> "But I ran away... I helped all of you and now they're gonna kill Mom..."
[21:55] <13@Marcus> <Theron> You stood up for me. *he notes finally, referring to the gun being pointed at him thing*
[21:55] <13@Myria> Mmm-hmmm.
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> <John> Better luck next time.
[21:55] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Thank you. *he nods his head slightly*
[21:55] <13SPoC> I believe that they would've done something like this irregardless if William Spade knew we would return.
[21:56] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yeah, well I don't know if I can defeat anything stronger than a human right now.
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well, you know how I look at it?
15[21:56] * 13@Jennifer` looks down a little and hugs onto her more.
[21:56] <13Sardis> Yeah. Probably why I never kept a woman. Hostage situations and the like.. too much damn trouble.
[21:56] <13@DeathStar> <John> If I can't beat down my opponent with my own two hands and strength, then the fight just ain't worth it
[21:56] <13SPoC> <Dias> If you're gonna lose, go down fighitng?
[21:56] <13@Myria> Sit down and try to relax a bit.
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Sardis now. "That right?"
[21:57] <13@Marcus> * Theron nods and sits, though him relaxing doesn't really seem possible.
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> <John> Though my motto is, If I'm gonna lose, bring a really big nuke
[21:57] <13SPoC> <Dias> You always did like your explosions.
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina leans into Marcus, resting her head on him
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> <John> What man doesn't?
15[21:58] * 13Sardis eyes Cheryl back " Thats right. "
[21:58] <13@Myria> Theorn, you're always so intense.
15[21:58] * 13@Marcus shifts his arm to put it around her, rubbing her opposite arm slightly.
09[21:58] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela keeps working, occasionally glancing at Kane.
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hmrmph. I was suppose to be dead by now. I didn't really consider long term in relationships
[21:58] <13SPoC> You should have more trust in us. We will do everything in our capabilties to rescue your mother.
[21:58] <13@Marcus> <Theron> I find it best to be ready at all times.
[21:59] <13@Marcus> <Kane> You are distracting me. *he says after a moment, looking over at Angela*
[21:59] <13Sardis> How ironic you may outlive your lover..
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah. Ironic. 6* She's bitter
09[22:00] <13@Jennifer`> I do trust you... I trust you with my life... I'm just... I can't help but be worried right now."
[22:00] <13@Myria> Its not going to help if you are too busy worrying about the future that the present passes you by.
09[22:00] <13@Jennifer`> "That creep Cran has my Mom..."
[22:00] <13SPoC> <Dias> Well, just because I can't launch of giant beams of black energy, I'll still fight ever fight with my best foot forwrd.
[22:00] <13@Marcus> * Theron tilts his head, glancing at her. "I do not understand.
15[22:01] * 13Sardis wordlessly slides away from the wall, finding a seat to relax in, sensing Cheryl is done talking.
[22:01] <13SPoC> In a way, he does, yes.
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> <John> That's what I like to hear. Maybe after this is over, we can go to a strip bar together
15[22:02] * 13@Jennifer` hugs her more and looks up at her. "Yeah..."
[22:02] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...I thought you said there weren't any strippers here.
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> <John> Oh. Right. I meant. In your reality. YOU know. After we finish here.
[22:03] <13SPoC> <Dias> Oh, I love my strip clubs. 6He beams proudly. 1"I've got my own reserved seat.
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Zephyr stumbles into the room, kneeling there after she half-collapses. She's wearing a black trench coat, and her dark hair is long, almost down to her behind. She pants violently.
[22:03] <13@Myria> There is a tradeoff for every decision. Focusing on the future with all the fears that go along...well, you miss the here and now.
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl blinks, leaning forward as she eyes the 15 year old Zephyr
15[22:04] * 13SPoC quickly ooks over at Zephyr. 1"Zephyr appears to be injured."
15[22:04] * 13Sardis raises a brow at Zephyr, not moving from the chair
[22:04] <13@Marcus> * Theron nods. "I will take that into consider-" He jerks and jumps to his feet moving over to kneel beside the younger Zephyr.
[22:04] <13@Marcus> * Kane jerks his head up. "See to her." He says to Angela.
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> <John> Good man.
09[22:04] <13@Jennifer`> * ANgela gets up, grabbign her medical kit and goes to Zeph. "Yikes you took some damage!"
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin stares, and Katrina rises, to check on her
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Yes. I ran into William Spade. 6* She notes flatly.
15[22:05] * 13@Marcus shifts to let Kat rise, peering down at Zephyr. "Yeah? I fought Alpha Ariel. She's scary."
09[22:05] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela grumbles, "That asshole... did you get him good?"
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> No. I couldn't touch him.
[22:05] <13SPoC> <Dias> It'll be good to fight alongside you...again.
09[22:05] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela starts to treat her wounds. "One day he'll slip up."
[22:05] <13@DeathStar> <John> Back at you. 6* He glances at a datapad. "Zephyr's back."
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hops to his feet, moving for the cafeteria
[22:06] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...Wonder if she wants to learn something else besides missionary. 6He moves after John
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> <John> You can try with her if you want.
[22:06] <13SPoC> <Dias> She get any older?
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hunh. 6* She notes
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> <John> She doesn't age. Like any of the Alphas.
[22:06] <13SPoC> <Dias> Our Zephyr did-does.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> <John> Sweet. I have to go back and meet her personally.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lets herself be treated, eyeing Cheryl as if sizing her up
[22:07] <13SPoC> <Dias> She's legal. 6he notes
[22:07] <13@Marcus> * Theron rises. "I believe I do not look forward to the confrontation with Spade."
09[22:07] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela keeps working, "Glad you made it back mostly in one peace... we got problems. Carmichael's wife is on the chopping block."
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* John steps into the cafeteria
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I see. 6* She glances at Jen
[22:08] <13SPoC> 6Dias steps in after him, looking over at Zephyr. He whistles.
15[22:08] * 13@Jennifer` is starting to calm down, letting SPoC get a little air.
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr forms her gun, aiming at Dias
09[22:08] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "The kid's taking it bad. Apparently the other Warren she ran off with is dea--- he's good."
[22:09] <13SPoC> 6Dias eeps and points at John. 1"It was him."
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sighs, and lets it vanish
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> <John> Wow. Some super hero
15[22:09] * 13@Marcus leans forward, glancing from Zephyr to Dias. "So close." He makes a motion with his fingers.
[22:09] <13SPoC> <Dias> I don't like guns pointed at me.
[22:10] <13SPoC> Will she be ok? 6She studies Zephyr
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina shakes her head, standing moving to sit on a stool
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> <Katrina> Whistling at a 15 year old, Dias. Really
09[22:10] <13@Jennifer`> Angie> "She's gonna be fine, I'm the best we got in terms of treating Dragoons..." *she sounds a little bitter about that*
[22:10] <13SPoC> <Dias> What?! 6He looks hurt
15[22:11] * 13@Marcus looks amused at Dias.
[22:11] <13SPoC> <Dias> I can't help it I know how good she looks when she grows up.
[22:11] <13@Marcus> * Theron moves back to his seat after seeing Zephyr is alright.
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Keep talkin' like that, and I'll shoot you in the kneecap.
[22:11] <13SPoC> <Dias> Plus I'm technically...6He starts counting on his fingers. 1"Like...5"
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <John> Like 5, eh? Well, I can't be seen hanging out with a kid
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* John moves off
[22:12] <13SPoC> 6Dias' jaw drops.
09[22:12] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela giggles a little, "That's our Zeph."
15[22:12] * 13@Myria looks over at Theron once he sits down again.
[22:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* The ceiling crashes inward and Alpha Ariel lands there.
[22:13] <13SPoC> <Dias> That's five in weapons yea-rs...6He blinks, looking over at Alpha Ariel
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl's eyes widen, and Zephyr jerks
[22:13] <13@Marcus> * Theron sits down and goes to say something and then jerks, peering at Ariel. "This is why I do not relax."
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> <John> Shit.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel rises
15[22:13] * 13SPoC pulls out her pistol, shifting infront of Jennifer
15[22:13] * 13@Marcus jerks to his feet quickly. "Oh hell."
[22:13] <13@Marcus> * Kane peers up quietly, making a face.
09[22:13] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela leaps up and turns. "Shit... how?"
15[22:13] * 13Sardis watches Ariel from his seat, unmoving
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel forms an energy blade, and charges energy with her hand, unleashing it toward the computers and Kain
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin jerks to get his weapon, aiming at Ariel and firing. She expertly dodges.
09[22:13] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "CHRIS!"
[22:14] <13SPoC> <Dias> This'll be fun. 6He cracks his neck and starts moving in towards him.
[22:14] <13@Marcus> * Theron widens his eyes and attempts to dive out of the way, if he has the time.
[22:14] <13@Myria> Errr...we'll talk later. *leaps to her feet*
[22:14] <13@Marcus> NRP: Kane! LOL.
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* John growls and rushes in at Ariel, throwing punches at her again adn again. She dodges each one.
15[22:14] * 13SPoC fires a shot after her.
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina activates her energy sword, and Zephyr forms her guns
[22:14] <13SPoC> 6Dias hops forward and dashes in, coming in from the side for Ariel
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel deflects the shot with her hand
[22:14] <13@Marcus> * Theron rises to his feet and brings up his Katana, holding it ready.
15[22:15] * 13@Marcus shakes his head. "Shit she's fast."
09[22:15] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela pulls out a rifle from under one of the seats.
[22:15] <13SPoC> It would appear so.
15[22:15] * 13@Jennifer` hides behind SPoC.
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel flips and kicks John in the chin and knocked upward. The computer area is now completely demolished
[22:15] <13SPoC> 6Dias slides in, throwing a punch for Alpha ariel as she kicks John upwards
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Ariel twists with her elbow to block it
[22:16] <13SPoC> 6Dias presses against it, then swings his other fist in to hit the elbow from below
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr fires at Ariel with her guns
09[22:16] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela fires at Ariel with the rifle.
[22:16] <13@Marcus> * Kane is lost amongst the computer debris.
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is hit again and again. She backflips away, and Katrina moves in, slashing at her back. She twists to flip over the blade.
09[22:17] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela rushes over to Kane.
[22:17] <13@Myria> Theron, please be careful. She's very strong.
[22:17] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts to move in, slashing out at her waist as she lands.
[22:17] <13SPoC> 6Dias kicks off and moves after Ariel, twisting around Kat and spin kicking upwards as she flips
[22:17] <13@Marcus> * Theron pauses to not cut Dias.
[22:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel blocks with an energy shield, but is knocked back. John dashes in
15[22:18] * 13@Marcus rubs his head, holding his blades ready, waiting for his chance to move.
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr lines her up
[22:18] <13SPoC> 6Dias scowls slightly as he drops his foot and he moves off after her.
[22:18] <13@Marcus> * Theron moves around Dias not, cutting out for her left leg. Aiming to immobilize.
[22:18] <13@Marcus> NRP: now*
15[22:18] * 13Sardis stands, kicking the chair he was sitting in towards Ariel's legs as she stumbles backwards
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel uses the chair, knocking it into Theron's cut
09[22:18] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela looks for Kane. "Chris? Are you okay?"
[22:19] <13SPoC> 6Dias shifts around Theron and flips onto his hands, spinkicking at Ariel
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr forms her dragoon bustah
[22:19] <13@Marcus> * Theron shifts back to jerk and throw the chair away.
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is kicked, and stumbles back. John ruses in and elbows her in the back
15[22:20] * 13@Marcus dashes in and leaps, throwing out a kick for the side of her face.
[22:20] <13SPoC> 6Dias flips onto his feet and steps in, throwing a punch for Ariel's gut
[22:20] <13@Kit> 6Freyja rests a hand on Paladin's shoulder, holding her other out toward Zephyr, drawing out the enchantment effect.
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is kicked and punched. She grabs Marcus' leg and swings him around to knock away the other two
[22:20] <13@Marcus> Oh fu-*he's used at a bat*
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* She then spins and slams him into the ground
[22:20] <13SPoC> 6Dias is hit by Marcus and sent flying back, landing with a thud
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* John is knocked back
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin looks at Freyja, then at the batle
15[22:21] * 13@Marcus is slammed into the ground, hard. He lays there.
15[22:21] * 13Sardis dives in to tackle Ariel as she slams Marcus
09[22:21] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela keeps up her search.
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr fires at Alpha Ariel while she's doing this, but it misses as Sardis tackles her aside
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* She does blow a large hole in the wall, however.
[22:21] <13SPoC> 6Dias groans, shaking his head as he stands up. 1"Ok body, if you're going to start working. Now would be the time."
15[22:21] * 13Sardis grunts, attempting to hold her down while the others regroup
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is tackled along the floor by Sardis
15[22:22] * 13@Jennifer` hides behind something for cover.
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* John gets to his feet
[22:22] <13@Kit> 6Freyja keeps the enchant on her, so she's not completely worn out afterwards-- if she's anything like the other Zephyr. 1"Nobody likes a persistent woman like her..."
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr aims at Ariel again. She fires again
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Sardis, MOVE
15[22:22] * 13Sardis braces himself not to be shifted into the blast
[22:22] <13@Marcus> * Angela would find Kane, buried. He's unconcious, but not dead at least.
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <PAladin> It's too strong!
15[22:23] * 13Sardis yelps as he relizes whats happening and dives backwards off of Ariel
[22:23] <13SPoC> 6Dias jerks towards Ariel, rotating his left cuff.
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* The blast slams into Ariel and causes a large explosive mass of energy
09[22:23] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela works at unburying him. "Damnit... hold on Chris."
15[22:23] * 13@Myria runs over to where Angela is digging out Kane to help with first aid.
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> <John> Tell me she's dead.
[22:23] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Can't tell yet..
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel begins to emerge, sparking
[22:23] <13SPoC> <Dias> She's dead. 6He starts moving towards the Alpha Ariel.
15[22:23] * 13@Jennifer` peeks up from her cover to watch. "W-Wow..."
15[22:24] * 13@Marcus groans, trying to push himself up.
[22:24] <13SPoC> I believe it would be wise to start retreating.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dashes in at her, and Katrina moves in as well
[22:24] <13SPoC> 6Dias kicks off, moving in at full speed.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin fires a single shot at her, which she dodges.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John throws a punch at her face, and she dodges, right into Katrina's slash. The two seem to be in tune with each other
[22:24] <13@Kit> 6Freyja brings down her unoccupied left hand and tries to deluge Alpha Ariel with water since she's sparking
[22:25] <13SPoC> 6Dias pulls his left fist back, trying to will it into becoming denser.
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel seems immune to water
[22:26] <13SPoC> 6Dias leaps onto a table and kicks off it, towards Ariel
[22:26] <13@Marcus> * Theron holds his katana ready, moving to strafe around Ariel.
[22:26] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Even exposed grounding. Geez.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel turns toward Dias
[22:26] <13SPoC> 6Dias swings his fist towards Ariels face as he comes down at her.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is hit and staggers
[22:27] <13SPoC> 6Dias lands in a crouch and kicks off, throwing an uppercut with his left hand
[22:27] <13@Kit> 6Freyja twitches slightly and holds the free palm to Dias-- enchanting him as well, leaving her out of offensive mode
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is hit agian and stumbles into John's foot, as he strikes her back. Katrina stabs her again, pinning her to the wall
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel frowns, then begins to glow and charge up energy.
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> She's self-destructing!
[22:28] <13SPoC> It would appear she is going to self destruct.
[22:28] <13@Kit> <Freyja> ...What?" 6Deadpans
09[22:28] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "That would be bad."
[22:28] <13@Marcus> * Theron jerks forward to stab her through the chest with hsi Katana.
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> <John> I suggest retreat.
09[22:28] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Put her out of commission!"
15[22:28] * 13Sardis moves out of the room while everyone panics
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alpha Ariel is stabbed again
09[22:28] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela tugs Kane free.
[22:29] <13SPoC> 6Dias clicks his tongue and starts backign up.
[22:29] <13@Myria> Miss Angela, I'll help you evacuate your friend.
15[22:29] * 13SPoC grabs Jennifer and starts movign out of the room
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin moves for the garage
[22:29] <13@Marcus> * Theron tilts his head and frown, jerking the katana out and attempting to strait up lob her head off.
15[22:29] * 13@Jennifer` moves with SPoC
15[22:29] * 13@Myria moves to help Angela get Kane out of there.
09[22:29] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela nods and evacs Kane with Myria's help.
15[22:29] * 13@Marcus groans and stumbles away from Ariel.
[22:29] <13SPoC> <Dias> Come on Kat. Theron. Let's go.
[22:29] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Get away from her!" 6She ends the enchants and holds up both hands, chanting quickly and dropping her hands, performing a water and ice combo that would solidify as she turns to retreat
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Theron cuts the head off. Zephyr rushes in and slams her fist through the ice and into her chest
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl gets to her feet, watching. Zephyr rips out her core
[22:30] <13SPoC> 6Dias tenses, eyeing the core.
[22:30] <13@Marcus> * Theron takes a step back, holding the katana up carefully. "Hmmm. I did not think of that."
[22:30] <13@Kit> 6Freyja pauses, glancing back in disbelief
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Crisis over. 6* Her hand is bleeding from punching ice
[22:31] <13@Marcus> * Theron bows his head. "Excellent work."
[22:31] <13SPoC> <Dias> Nice. 6He gives Zephyr a thumbs up
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* John stops, coughing into his fist. "Totally wasn't worried."
09[22:31] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela sighs and starts treating Kane's wounds.
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs with relief, turning the sword off
15[22:31] * 13@Marcus stands there rubbing his head. "I feel like I was hit by a truck."
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> At least won't have to deal with her later.
[22:32] <13SPoC> <Dias> You think you'd be used to that by now
15[22:32] * 13@Myria pulls out her medkit and starts helping with the first aid.
15[22:32] * 13SPoC stops, looking back at the others. 1"It would be wise to relocate
[22:32] <13@Marcus> Those trucks never get any softer man.
09[22:32] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "We may wans to make sure she's dismantled before we leave."
09[22:32] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Or on our current luck we'll see her again."
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> <John> Right. Lets clean up and move.
09[22:33] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela uses some smelling salts on Kane, "Wakey honey."
[22:33] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Well, be my guest Angela II. I... want nothing more than to stay away from that ...thing."
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr sits down, eyeing her hand.
[22:34] <13@Marcus> * Kane opens his eyes slowly.
[22:34] <13SPoC> 6Dias moves over to Zephyr, eyeing her hand. 1"You gonna be ok?"
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I'm fine. She won't be our main problem.
[22:34] <13@Kit> 6Freyja kneels beside Zephyr. 1"Who is..?"
[22:34] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Spade and Erevis are both still working for Cran.
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> It's Cheryl and Spade we need to be wary of.
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr peers at Cheryl when she says this
[22:34] <13@Kit> <Freyja> That man again, huh..? Hmm.
09[22:35] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> There you are, we need to run now Chris.
[22:35] <13@Marcus> <Kane> ....*he attempts to sit up, wincing*
[22:35] <13SPoC> <Dias> I can take Cheryl no problem.
09[22:35] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela helps him up.
[22:35] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> ...
[22:35] <13@Marcus> Yeah. We'll probably have to team up on Spade.
[22:35] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Maybe I can help with that man after all.
15[22:35] * 13@Jennifer` looks around at everyone and frowns, likely having tripled her teenage martyr complex since the fight began.
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Hrm...
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> -TIME JUMP-
[22:36] <13@Kit> <Freyja> It's ...a bit of a longshot I'd need to save up for, though." 6She sees if she can attend to Zephyr's hand.
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> Location: New Van
[22:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyeing a map on his datapad. "Okay, I'm lost. Which way to the prison?" 6* After securing a new van, the team has been on the move for the past few hours
15[22:37] * 13@Jennifer` holds her head.
[22:37] <13@Marcus> <Kane> ...I told you to give me the map.
09[22:37] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "Oi vey..."
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> <John> Fine. 6* He tosses it at him.
[22:37] <13@Marcus> * Kane catches it and peers to see where they are, pointing out the right direction to take.
15[22:37] * 13Sardis is leaning back in the seat, he appears to be sleeping
[22:37] <13SPoC> <Dias> You know, if Spade can see things. It makes you wonder if he knew we'd beat Alpha Ariel.
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jerks suddenly, banging her head
[22:37] <13@Kit> 6Freyja blinks toward Cheryl. 1"Something wrong?"
15[22:38] * 13@Marcus pauses and glances at Cheryl. "Hey you ok?"
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr eyes her. "Should I shoot her?"
[22:38] <13SPoC> It would not be wise.
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina blinks. "Her mind is....really getting jumbled."
[22:38] <13@Marcus> <Theron> You would waste your energy. She is dying.
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl grinds her teeth. "Son of a bitch. The bond is..."
[22:38] <13SPoC> They are doing something to Chii.
[22:38] <13@Kit> 6Freyja jerks now. 1"The bond is..?"
[22:38] <13@Marcus> The bond? Oh shit, Chii?
[22:38] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> It's being hijacked! 6* She grabs her head.
[22:39] <13SPoC> <Dias> How the hell is that possible.
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Hijacked?
[22:39] <13@Marcus> Hijacked?! Uh, do we...stun her?
09[22:39] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "What the hell... can that be done?"
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... I can't sense Chii at all anymore... 6* She notes in dismay.
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl drops her hands
[22:39] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Wh-what..!?
15[22:39] * 13@Marcus makes a face. "Son of a bitch."
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I would say our Cheryl has a hand in it
[22:40] <13@Marcus> How is that possible?
[22:40] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yeah. I'm totally lost at this hijacking thing.
[22:40] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Your Cheryl has a bond with this ... Chii, right?
15[22:40] * 13@Marcus pauses and realizes Dias just said that, he just nods. "At least we can be dumb together."
[22:40] <13@Kit> <Freyja> ...Why would you say that..? Being a different reality, ...She couldn't be manipulated in that manner, could she?
[22:40] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> *shrugs* Who knows. It could be possible that our Cheryl's bond wavelength is the same as yours.
[22:40] <13SPoC> <Dias> Speak for yourself. 6He looks at Zephyr
15[22:41] * 13@Jennifer` looks at Zephyr, "You mean... the bad Cheryl took it over?"
[22:41] <13SPoC> <Dias> So besides screwing with our Cheryl. What good is taking the bond with Chii? All it'll do is make her super horny
[22:41] <13@Kit> 6Freyja looks to panic slightly. 1"Wh-what does that mean..!? She's the pilot, isn't she? She can't be used like that..!?"
[22:41] <13@Marcus> Maybe this Cheryl could control Chii.
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... Goddammit
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* She slams her fist into the wall of the van
[22:42] <13@Kit> 6Freyja eyes Cheryl.
[22:42] <13SPoC> Drugs and mental manipulation can be used.
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* John points. "So a left?" 6* He seems tuned out on the convo in the back
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> It would depend on our Cheryl's will, I guess
[22:43] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> She is Cran's personal lapdog.
[22:43] <13@Marcus> <Kane> No. Right.
[22:43] <13SPoC> <Dias> It can go both ways? Cool.
[22:43] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I still don't understand. With beings like Cheryl and Alpha Ariel, what good would come of making Chii their puppet..?
[22:43] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Technically - no. I can only assume that Cheryl was modified.
[22:43] <13SPoC> <Dias> Oh. That's lame.
09[22:44] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> 'It'd make sense for Cran to modify and enhance his brats."
[22:44] <13@Marcus> They can use Chii against us. Because we won't hurt her.
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Marcus is correct. Plus, they can learn why we're here
[22:44] <13@Kit> 6Freyja looks skeptically at Marcus. 1"You won't?"
[22:44] <13@Marcus> Course I wouldn't hurt Chii-Chii.
[22:44] <13SPoC> <Dias> Well I could if I had to.
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl glares.
[22:44] <13SPoC> <Dias> What?! Only if I had to.
[22:44] <13@Kit> 6Freyja leans back, as if Dias is proving something to her.
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I do have one personal fear
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> That they will then use Chii to control your Cheryl
[22:45] <13SPoC> <Dias> Like if I needed to knock her out.
[22:45] <13SPoC> It is possible to do that? 6She blinks.
[22:45] <13@Marcus> Well we could stun Cheryl now.
[22:45] <13@Kit> <Freyja> A dualistic channel due to the shared wavelengths.
[22:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Marcus
[22:46] <13@Marcus> Or not. *he glances up, rubbing his chin*
[22:46] <13@Kit> 6Freyja looks distraugthly at Marcus. 1"If we did that, and they're able to use Chii for the same intensive purposes, theirs could very well decide to become the other form."
[22:46] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> I don't know. It might be. Chii is still her pilot
[22:46] <13@DeathStar> <John> So no left?
[22:46] <13@Marcus> Right.
[22:46] <13SPoC> <Dias> No offense, but I'm sure they could find a better pilot than Chii.
[22:47] <13@Marcus> NRP: Kane.
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Chii is connected to our Cheryl.
[22:47] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I imagine that would be far more encumbersome than Alpha Ariel's human form to fight a gear with Chii inside-- if you're holding to not harming her, Dias.
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* John nods, as he drives
[22:47] <13SPoC> <Dias> Sometimes you gotta crack a few eggs to make a biscuit. 6He shrugs
09[22:48] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "We really won't know what's up until we see for ourselves."
15[22:48] * 13@Jennifer` remains quiet, no longer in a talkative mood.
[22:48] <13@Kit> <Freyja> No, you always have to break eggs for that... or the recipe wi--- ungh.
[22:48] <13@Kit> 6Freyja sits back, holding her head now.
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* They arrive outside the prison area. There's already a ton of tanks outside the gates, and three attack shuttles fly around
[22:48] <13SPoC> <Dias> Hey, the welcoming committee
[22:49] <13@Marcus> * Kane eyes the scene slightly with a frown. "This is more than my calculations."
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Cheryl, if you feel yourself being influenced at any time, let me know.
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> <John> Define 'more than'.
09[22:49] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "This is bad."
[22:49] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Hmm. Our chances just dropped 15-20%
[22:49] <13SPoC> <Dias> But we still have chacnes.
[22:50] <13SPoC> <Dias> Right?
[22:50] <13@Kit> <Freyja> And our chances were originally what?
15[22:50] * 13Sardis eyes the prison out of the corner of his eye, still in a sleeplike posture
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Right. Alright, I got a plan. Everyone out of the van. You guys will need to find a way to scale the wall out of sight
[22:50] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Enough that I would come. *he glances at John*
[22:50] <13SPoC> <Dias> You're gonna run the van into them aren't you?
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Well .... yeah.
[22:50] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I can get to the other side of the wall without being seen from here.
[22:50] <13SPoC> <Dias> Nice.
[22:50] <13@Kit> 6Freyja frowns. 1"Then what?"
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> <John> Then I---run.
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> Look, just get yourselves over the wall
[22:51] <13SPoC> <Dias> He's good at running.
09[22:51] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela rolls her eyes. "A Johnny Plan."
[22:51] <13@Marcus> <Kane> Perhaps I can stay back and attempt to take control of one of the attack shuttles.
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin nods and gets out of the van
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> <John> Good idea. Find a place to hide, Kane.
15[22:51] * 13SPoC moves out of the van herself now.
09[22:51] <13@Jennifer`> Angela> "I may as well help you."
[22:51] <13@Marcus> * Kane nods and gets out of the van, moving to go do just that.
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina hops out, and Zephyr climbs out next
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl lumbers out
[22:51] <13SPoC> 6Dias holds his fist out towards John.
[22:51] <13@Marcus> * Theron gets out of the van.
15[22:52] * 13@Jennifer` hops out with SPoC.
15[22:52] * 13@Marcus steps out as well.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* John does the terrorist jab
[22:52] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Shall I perform an encore of the kitten train?
15[22:52] * 13Sardis stirrs " Alright.. everyone out. Onward and upward and all of that. " he says, crawling out of the van
09[22:52] <13@Jennifer`> * Angela moves after Kane, clearly not wanting to be away from him after he nearly died!
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> <PAladin> Freyja, can you get us all on the other side of the wall?
[22:52] <13SPoC> <Dias> Remember to zag when you want to zig. 6He climbs out quickly
[22:53] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Expending lots of energy one by one. But not all at once. On the other hand if one of you is carrying rope we can create an illusionist veil and climb. Just make sure no one enters the afflicted zone or they'll be alerted.
[22:53] <13SPoC> <Dias> I wish I could teleport. 6He kicks the at the ground.
15[22:53] * 13@Myria hops out of the van.
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Then we find other ways over the wall
[22:54] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Lightstep isn't as convenient as you would think. Especially when you're learning how to do it without a mentor...
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin examines the wall, as the van speeds off toward the tanks
14[22:55] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
15[22:55] * 13@Marcus tilts his head and then pulls out his blades, trying to drive them into the wall to use them to climb.
[22:55] <13SPoC> 6Dias eyes the wall then just runs upto it trying to run up it.
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias falls back down
[22:55] <13@Kit> 6Freyja grabs Paladin and brings them to the other side-- where hopfully no one is standing, then holds up a hand to bring a veil of the ordinary scene of the corner wall over it.
[22:55] <13Sardis> We've got enough people here.. couldnt we create a ladder of bodies? Then have the lower rungs climb while someone holds them up from the top?
[22:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin blinks.
[22:56] <13SPoC> 6Dias scowls and takes several steps back. He scrunches his face and leaps upwards, trying to will his body in super jumping.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr forms a gun and just shoots a hole in the wall'
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> <Zephyr> Problem slved
[22:56] <13Sardis> Ok- holes in the wall work too.
[22:56] <13@Kit> 6Freyja eyes Zephyr. 1"...Now if I don't maintain the illusion the hole will be noticed..."
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina sighs. "Probably everyone heard that."
09[22:56] <13@Jennifer`> "Simple is sometimes best."
[22:56] <13@Marcus> * Theron pauses and tilts his head. "They probably heard that."
[22:56] <13SPoC> An effective method. 6She starts moving for the hole.
15[22:57] * 13@Jennifer` moves for the hole as well.
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* John begins to drive around the tnaks, causing them to hsoot at them
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> *him
15[22:57] * 13@Myria sighs and heads for the hole.
15[22:57] * 13@Marcus shakes his head. "Well, I was doing good too." He drops down, putting his blades away.
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina and Cheryl go through the hole, with Zephyr moving in next
[22:57] <13SPoC> 6Dias sighs, grumbling now as he walks through the hole.
15[22:57] * 13@Marcus steps through, so does Theron
15[22:57] * 13Sardis follows after them, glancing to the sides as he emerges on the otherside
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* John's van is shot up into the air, but it lands on it's wheels, so it's fine, GTA style
15[22:58] * 13@Myria moves through the hole to the other side.
03[22:58] * X1 (scoutx1@66-227-210-222.dhcp.trcy.mi.charter.com) has joined #taw
15[22:58] * 13@Jennifer` sticks with SPoC once on the other side.
[22:58] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Should I remain here, Gordon?
[22:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other side of the wall is the prison courtyard. At the front of the prison, a group of people are gathered. Tons of soldiers, with Jennifer's bomb on a platform - it seems they're have her hung up like an old fashion hanging
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> No. Come with us. We probably won't get far without being detected anyway.
[22:59] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Faith, eh?
15[22:59] * 13@Jennifer` grips at SPoC's shirt a little as she stares at the scene, horrified.
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Her mom, too. Like a bomb.
[23:00] <13@Kit> <Freyja> ...On second thought, I could retrieve our target and make a hasty retreat..
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin examines the area. So far none of the soldiers have reacted, so he pulls out his binoculars
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Bad idea. She has explosives strapped on her.
[23:01] <13SPoC> <Dias> Explosives. I can't handle explosives.
[23:01] <13@Kit> <Freyja> *pause* ...Yeah, bad idea.
15[23:01] * 13@Jennifer` grips onto SPoC more.
15[23:01] * 13SPoC remains quiet.
15[23:01] * 13@Marcus sighs. "Can you tell if they have a remote detonator, or is it a timed thing?"
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* William Spade steps out onto the platform, spreading his hands. "I know you all are here. I give you one minute to give yourselves up, before I kill this woman."
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> Hard to tell.
[23:02] <13SPoC> <Dias> ...How inviting.
[23:02] <13@Marcus> Tch...Spade is a prick.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin frowns. Zephyr frowns now.
[23:02] <13@Marcus> <Theron> Orders, sir?
15[23:02] * 13@Jennifer` looks at all of them worriedly.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> We give ourselves up, they'll likely kill us anyway.
[23:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* John's van is finally blown up by the tanks
[23:02] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I have one option to offer, but it'll leave me all but useless.
[23:03] <13SPoC> 6Dias tisks. 1"This is so unfair
[23:03] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> What option is that?
[23:03] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Want to see how William Spade ticks?
15[23:03] * 13Sardis stands silently, waiting for them to make a dicision
[23:03] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> I think that would be dangerous.
[23:03] <13SPoC> Do we have any other choice?
[23:03] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Could buy us far more time within one minute realtime, however, as well as incapacitate him from a second group recovering Miss Carmichael.
[23:04] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> There's no guarantee they won't blow her up even if he's down
[23:04] <13@Kit> <Freyja> We don't have that to begin with
[23:04] <13Sardis> All we need is DNA right?
09[23:04] <13@Jennifer`> "Save her please..."
[23:04] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> ....
[23:05] <13@Kit> <Freyja> I'm sorry, Paladin. I leave it to you-- my methods are... not correct for Jennifer.
[23:05] <13@DeathStar> <Paladin> I cannot in good conscience have us go into that man's mind, or heart. He's too dangerous mentally
[23:05] <13@Marcus> Alright. Alright. Let's just surrender already, shit. *he moves to step forward*
[23:05] <13SPoC> Than is there nothing we can do?
[23:05] <13SPoC> 6Dias clicks his tongue, eyeing Marcus and moving to step forward.
[23:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl frowns and walks forward
[23:05] <13@Marcus> * Theron tilts his head then moves forward as well.
15[23:06] * 13@Myria glances at Theron and then at Paladin.
15[23:06] * 13@Jennifer` lowers her head and starts to follow example, moving forward.
[23:06] <13@Kit> <Freyja> ...It's sad, since we have a peaceful intent on being here. This fighting is..
[23:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin curses and moves forward. Katrina moves with the others
15[23:06] * 13SPoC frowns and moves forward
[23:06] <13@Kit> 6Freyja holds her sides slightly. 1"If it's your decision, Gordon, I'll go. But I express no wanting in being within that man's grasp nor Alexander Cran's."
15[23:06] * 13@Myria sighs and steps forward as well.
[23:07] <13@Marcus> Hey, ease up, we surrender. We surrender. *he holds up his hands as he steps out of Freyja's veil.
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Zephyr hangs back, then leaps up onto the wall and moves out of sight
[23:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* William peers at them as they approach. "How predictable."
[23:08] <13@DeathStar> 6 *The soldiers move to take up arms on the team.
[23:08] <13SPoC> <Dias> Yeah yeah. 6He waves his hands dismissively.
[23:08] <13@Kit> 6Freyja waits for Paladin to say something before walking out herself.
15[23:08] * 13Sardis watches Zephyr go "I was wondering who was going to take that roll.."
[23:08] <13@Marcus> Sorry we didn't do something amazing for you, buddy.
[23:08] <13Sardis> I was amazed. *Says Sardis, making himself seen
[23:08] <13@DeathStar> <William> Now kill them.
[23:09] <13SPoC> <Dias> Wait.
09[23:09] <13@Jennifer`> "W-Wait..."
[23:09] <13@Kit> 6Freyja winces, then holds up a hand and distorts her field-- making it far less than realistic now, but intensely hard to aim as it warps.
[23:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* The soldiers take aim and suddenly Paladin aims at the explosive on Jennifer's mother's neck and fires, causing even Spade to go shocked, despite his abilities
15[23:10] * 13@Marcus drops his mouth open, his eyes wide.
15[23:10] * 13@Jennifer` stares in utter horror, eyes going wide.
[23:10] <13SPoC> 6Dias' eyes go wide.
[23:10] <13@Kit> <Freyja> Retreat now," 6She hisses.
15[23:10] * 13Sardis smiles at the explosion " Now thats what I was thinking! "
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The explosives go off, causing a massive explosion that takes out the soldiers and Spade
15[23:11] * 13@Jennifer` just starts to scream, falling to her knees.
15[23:11] * 13SPoC quickly pulls out her pistol and aims it at any guard. that isn't taken out
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Katrina's jaw drops as she stares
15[23:11] * 13@Marcus just stares, completely in shock.
[23:11] <13@Myria> ...I...I...I...
[23:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* A few guards crawl, badly damaged.
[23:11] <13@Marcus> * Theron frowns and aims to take them out.
09[23:12] <13@Jennifer`> "Mom... Mommy... NO!!!"
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* The attack shuttles begin to turn and fire at the group.
15[23:12] * 13SPoC puts an arm around Jennifer, lifting her up. She begins to retreat back for the hole they created
[23:12] <13SPoC> 6Dias jerks up wards and leaps to the side, rolling
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl jerks and moves back the way they came.
[23:12] <13Sardis> "Now we just need to get a bloody scrap-- damn there is too damn much of them" he calls, wading forward into the chaos
15[23:12] * 13@Marcus shakes his head quickly and turns to run away.
[23:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Spade rises, looking badly burnt.
[23:13] <13@Marcus> * Theron backs up, diving if he has too, but otherwise moving with the others.
15[23:13] * 13@Myria heads back for the hole in the wall!
15[23:13] * 13Sardis pulls out his pistol, firing on the leader of his enemies as Spade moves
[23:13] <13@Kit> 6Freyja looses a light arrow at Spade. 1"Gordon..!"
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* As they move for the hole, a tank pulls up, blocking their way out, and more soldiers begin to come out of the prison, having been waiting in leiu
[23:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* Spade dodges the shots, despite being injured
15[23:13] * 13@Jennifer` is carried limply, in all likelyhood mentally broken now.
15[23:13] * 13SPoC slides to a stop, eyeing the tank
15[23:13] * 13@Marcus stops, as does Theron.
[23:14] <13@Marcus> Even after that we're still trapped. Great.
[23:14] <13SPoC> 6Dias shifts, rising up again.
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Paladin grinds his teeth
[23:14] <13@DeathStar> -To Be Continued-
[23:14] <13Sardis> Nice progression
03[23:14] * Sardis is now known as Kulix
[23:15] <13@Marcus> I'm a horrible person. Because I can't stop laughing.
03[23:15] * Myria is now known as Jackieness
03[23:15] * DeathStar changes topic to 'TAW 4: TEP (251-present) | TAW 4: PAX has ended (1-250) | Season 17 (Judgements): 5 of 20 complete | Overall Session #336 (886) | Episode Six: The Bonds That Tie Us | 6 of 7 | Sessions occur T/Th at 8 EST | Please visit our sister RPG #Erevis'
