Nov 23 20:58:20 <lurkd>	*ALARM*
Nov 23 20:58:31 <Roget>	*Alarming intensifies*
Nov 23 20:58:38 <Roget>	Ralph walks into the sub bay
Nov 23 20:58:48 <Maddy>	Alice's getting to the sub bay intensifies.
Nov 23 20:58:55 <lurkd>	Researcher 1:  "LISA!  STOP!"
Nov 23 20:58:59 <Aphex_>	Collin arrives, slowing himself to a brisk walk, rifle in hand.
Nov 23 20:59:06 <lurkd>	There is a female researcher wading into the pool.
Nov 23 20:59:25 <lurkd>	Researcher 2:  "Adam, don't touch her!"
Nov 23 20:59:34 <Maddy>	"Woah, what's going on here?"
Nov 23 20:59:39 <Roget>	"... ?"
Nov 23 20:59:49 <Echo>	Jason stops what he's doing in the armory, locks the last lug in place, and grabs the nearest can of ammo as he starts pulling his gear on. He's got his weapon up as he moves through the corridor leading to the bay, ready to open fire.
Nov 23 21:00:05 <lurkd>	The female researcher continues into the pool, Glock drawn at people as she walks in deeper.
Nov 23 21:00:13 <Aphex_>	Collin heads towards the researchers, a look of concern on his face.
Nov 23 21:00:22 <lurkd>	Researcher 1:  "LISA!!!"
Nov 23 21:00:26 <Soots>	Chloe rushes into the sub bay, full speed ahead.
Nov 23 21:00:55 <lurkd>	Researcher 2:  "Shit!"
Nov 23 21:01:23 <Roget>	"What the hell is going on?"
Nov 23 21:01:29 <Echo>	6df+8 Jason opens fire on her as he catches sight of the gun pointed at people, ripping off a good 30 rounds from the machine gun's belt.
Nov 23 21:01:30 <Glacon>	Echo: Jason opens fire on her as he catches sight of the gun pointed at people, ripping off a good 30 rounds from the machine gun's belt.: 10 (6df+8=+, +, 0, -, 0, +)
Nov 23 21:01:58 <Maddy>	Alice flinches a little. "Jesus."
Nov 23 21:02:25 <lurkd>	6df+6  Almost submerged anyhow.
Nov 23 21:02:25 <Glacon>	lurkd: Almost submerged anyhow.: 5 (6df+6=+, +, -, -, 0, -)
Nov 23 21:02:42 <Aphex_>	Collin jumps rather violently at the sound.
Nov 23 21:02:50 <lurkd>	Lisa takes some hits and disappears into the pool.  *blub*
Nov 23 21:03:02 <Soots>	"...My God..."
Nov 23 21:03:19 <Echo>	"Down!"
Nov 23 21:03:29 *	Gara (Ding.dong@the.witch.is.dead) has joined #redpool
Nov 23 21:03:30 <lurkd>	the researcher yelling her name gets up and pushes Jason.  "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!!!"
Nov 23 21:03:56 <Maddy>	"Can we please gen an explination?"
Nov 23 21:03:56 <lurkd>	The other researcher gets up and restrains him.  "Stand down, he's doing his job!"
Nov 23 21:04:26 <Aphex_>	Collin looks around frantically, rifle at low ready.
Nov 23 21:04:32 <lurkd>	"It was so quick.  No warning.  Something came out and got a hold of her."
Nov 23 21:04:45 <Echo>	Jason stares at the person who just shoved him, almost incredulous looking. "DID YOU HEAR THE FUCKING ALARM. GUN WAVIN' AROUND?"
Nov 23 21:05:05 <Maddy>	"Jason, time for explinations."
Nov 23 21:05:25 <lurkd>	He doesn't care what Jason is saying, he's pretty frantic.  His friend is holding him and pulls him away.
Nov 23 21:05:33 *	Jekeled (jekel@mr.hyde) has joined #redpool
Nov 23 21:05:44 <Soots>	Chloe heads up to the nearest sane researcher. "What's going on?"
Nov 23 21:06:11 <lurkd>	"We don't know what it was.  There was a lot of them and then, it got Lisa and she wouldn't respond to us."
Nov 23 21:06:28 <Echo>	Jason faces away, weapon still aimed out toward the center of the pool, sights laid in about 10 meters away from the shore.
Nov 23 21:06:33 <lurkd>	"Black things flying around, and their eyes... "
Nov 23 21:06:52 <lurkd>	"...can you bring her back?"
Nov 23 21:07:19 <Roget>	Ralph just kinda... stands and watches. "Uh... possibly. Is this the emergence event, or did stuff just come out after the emergence happened?"
Nov 23 21:07:46 <Echo>	"We *might* want to back up a bit."
Nov 23 21:08:08 <Maddy>	Alice similarly points her gun at le pool.
Nov 23 21:08:31 <Aphex_>	Collin keeps sights trained on the pool, all the while taking a few steps back.
Nov 23 21:08:33 <lurkd>	"It's an emergence event alright.  And they took her."
Nov 23 21:08:57 <lurkd>	More personnel start rushing in.
Nov 23 21:09:08 <lurkd>	"It... it was just so quick."
Nov 23 21:09:22 <Soots>	Chloe aims her PDW at the Pool.
Nov 23 21:09:56 <lurkd>	The pool is very still now.
Nov 23 21:10:04 <Roget>	Ralph puts his hand to his side, looking for a sidearm.
Nov 23 21:10:35 <Echo>	Jason chances a glance sideways. "What *was* it?"
Nov 23 21:11:11 <lurkd>	"It's like trying to explain a shadow.  Black, amorphous, with bright eyes.  I couldn't get a good look."
Nov 23 21:11:50 <lurkd>	"There was, I don't know, 10 or so?"
Nov 23 21:11:51 <Maddy>	"Haunter of the Dark."
Nov 23 21:11:59 <Roget>	"what now?"
Nov 23 21:12:17 <Maddy>	"I don't knoe sounds like a thing from a book I was reading. But there's only one of that. And it's a book."
Nov 23 21:12:18 <Aphex_>	"Huh?" Collin looks over to Alice.
Nov 23 21:12:31 <Echo>	Jason looks around for shell casings on the floor. Ones that aren't his.
Nov 23 21:12:54 <Maddy>	"Nevermind."
Nov 23 21:13:11 <lurkd>	Jason, there are none.
Nov 23 21:13:28 *	Nightvale (Mibbit@synIRC-9608048E.ard.bellsouth.net) has joined #redpool
Nov 23 21:13:59 <lurkd>	"You have to get her back."
Nov 23 21:14:05 <lurkd>	"Please."
Nov 23 21:15:44 <Soots>	"...We'll try." If her promise is empty, well, only she knows.
Nov 23 21:16:16 <Echo>	Jason looks back at Chloe. "Uhhh. we got a protocol for casualty recovery in the Pool?"
Nov 23 21:16:36 <Soots>	"Uh," Do they?
Nov 23 21:16:42 <Roget>	"Last I remember something like this happening was when Corbette got attacked by a sub."
Nov 23 21:16:50 <Echo>	He waves her over.
Nov 23 21:16:57 <Echo>	"Alice, cover."
Nov 23 21:16:58 *	Puppetmaster (strings@pulling.them) has joined #redpool
Nov 23 21:16:58 <Roget>	"And I think Nolan, way back, he got sucked in... but he also got out on his own."
Nov 23 21:17:08 <Maddy>	"Got it." she does that.
Nov 23 21:17:09 <Soots>	Chloe heads over to Echo.
Nov 23 21:17:22 <Soots>	* Jason Or uh, redact?
Nov 23 21:17:49 <lurkd>	And just like that, Corbette walks in.  "What the shit is going on here?  I heard someone went AWOL."
Nov 23 21:18:07 *	PresidentEvil is now known as Pres|Shower
Nov 23 21:18:10 <Aphex_>	Collin lowers his guard, still staring in the pool's direction.
Nov 23 21:18:21 <Echo>	Jason leans close, shaking his head. "She had to take a dozen hits there."
Nov 23 21:18:49 <lurkd>	Bodies usually float.
Nov 23 21:18:57 <lurkd>	Dead ones that is.
Nov 23 21:19:01 <Soots>	Not after they decomposed after a while
Nov 23 21:19:36 <Echo>	"Fuck. Your show, Chloe."
Nov 23 21:20:04 <Echo>	He nods back at Corbette.
Nov 23 21:20:08 <lurkd>	Corbette gets the same briefing from the shaken researchers who witnessed it.
Nov 23 21:20:43 *	Bouncl (~noreally@do.u.even.steep) has joined #redpool
Nov 23 21:21:10 <lurkd>	Then he addresses them.  "Find the body.  If you find her alive, I leave it to your discretion whether to bring her back."
Nov 23 21:21:57 <lurkd>	The researcher barks back at him.  "You can't do that!  Lisa didn't do this!
Nov 23 21:22:37 <lurkd>	Corbette:  "Get them out of here for debriefing."
Nov 23 21:23:04 <Soots>	"Alright then."
Nov 23 21:23:05 <lurkd>	Personnel takes the witnesses away.
Nov 23 21:23:49 <Roget>	Ralph is kind of standing around, not sure what to do here.
Nov 23 21:24:05 <Aphex_>	Collin watches as the researchers escorted out.
Nov 23 21:24:23 <Soots>	Chloe chews on her lower lip, considering this. "Director, do you have any intel on the emergence event other than what the researchers have witnessed?"
Nov 23 21:25:20 <Roget>	"Corbette, what the fuck is going on?"
Nov 23 21:25:35 <lurkd>	"Negative.  Just that there were no prior signs leading up to this.  I know as much as you do at this point."
Nov 23 21:25:59 <Echo>	Jason's gone back to maintaining a field of fire on the Pool as he listens.
Nov 23 21:26:01 <Soots>	"Alright then...Do we take a sub or go SCUBA diving?"
Nov 23 21:26:36 *	TheRaven has quit (Quit: Sail away where no ball and chain can keep us from the roarin' waves, together undivided but forever we'll be free!)
Nov 23 21:26:39 <lurkd>	"Take the sub.  Be careful.  Recover what remains you can."
Nov 23 21:26:53 <Roget>	"Aye-aye, boss."
Nov 23 21:27:04 <lurkd>	"We need to figure this out so we don't get jumped like this again."
Nov 23 21:27:15 <Soots>	"Roger that."
Nov 23 21:27:30 <Maddy>	"Hear you there, loud and clear."
Nov 23 21:28:08 <Aphex_>	Collin nods, silently accepting his orders.
Nov 23 21:28:13 <lurkd>	He nods and tells the technicians to prep the sub.
Nov 23 21:28:14 <Roget>	Ralph heads to the sub
Nov 23 21:28:20 <Echo>	Jason starts backing off in the direction of the sub, still a little wary that something else is going to pop out.
Nov 23 21:28:52 <Echo>	"We got people that's gonna hold here in case shit pops off up here?"
Nov 23 21:28:52 <Soots>	Chloe walks to the sub, PDW up and ready.
Nov 23 21:29:01 <Maddy>	alice goes too!
Nov 23 21:29:04 <Aphex_>	Collin heads to the sub as well.
Nov 23 21:29:10 <Roget>	Ralph sits in the sub, and buckles up for safety
Nov 23 21:30:03 <Soots>	Chloe climbs in and secures herself in.
Nov 23 21:30:10 <Aphex_>	Collin climbs in and buckles up as well.
Nov 23 21:30:11 <lurkd>	Corbette addresses Jason.  "The bofor gun crews are trained and ready.  We will post here till you return."
Nov 23 21:30:13 <Roget>	"Hey Chloe."
Nov 23 21:30:33 <Echo>	"Copy that." Jason ducks into the sub and straps in.
Nov 23 21:30:36 <Soots>	"Hi Ralph, been a long time since I saw you last dive."
Nov 23 21:30:56 <lurkd>	Corbette walks off to review security footage.
Nov 23 21:31:04 <Maddy>	"If we turn into fish or somthing..."
Nov 23 21:31:29 <lurkd>	Assuming everyone is in the sub, it detaches and begins to descend.  *bloop* *bloop*
Nov 23 21:31:36 <Roget>	"Would you believe that, out of all the time I've been here, I've never SCUBA dived?"
Nov 23 21:31:59 <Maddy>	"I would."
Nov 23 21:32:05 <Maddy>	"Who would want to?"
Nov 23 21:32:27 <Roget>	"I'd much rather take the sub anyday, yeah."
Nov 23 21:32:37 <Aphex_>	"What, SCUBA?"
Nov 23 21:32:55 <Soots>	"On the first dive after the Pool opened up, we used SCUBA equipment."
Nov 23 21:33:07 <lurkd>	The sub dives and then starts to ascend, it's a relatively short trip.  As it surfaces, it bobs up and down gently.
Nov 23 21:33:30 <Roget>	"Looks like we're already here." Perc to look out the windows?
Nov 23 21:33:55 <lurkd>	yup
Nov 23 21:34:19 <Aphex_>	6df+6 Looking around, anything of interest?
Nov 23 21:34:20 <Glacon>	Aphex_: Looking around, anything of interest?: 10 (6df+6=-, +, +, +, +, +)

Nov 23 21:34:31 <Soots>	6df+5 Chloe looks out a porthole.
Nov 23 21:34:32 <Glacon>	Soots: Chloe looks out a porthole.: 3 (6df+5=-, 0, 0, -, -, +)
Nov 23 21:34:52 <Maddy>	6df+6 "Hmmm."
Nov 23 21:34:54 <Glacon>	Maddy: "Hmmm.": 9 (6df+6=0, 0, +, +, +, 0)
Nov 23 21:36:19 <lurkd>	Jason, Alice, and Ralph see that they are in a clearing in the middle of a dense forest.  The pool they emerged from is not bigger than a pond.  A mobile prefab building is right next to this pond.  The surrounding forest past the clearing is far too dense to see through.  There is a thick overcast ahead.
Nov 23 21:36:51 <Soots>	What does Chloe see?
Nov 23 21:37:00 <Echo>	How far away is the woodline?
Nov 23 21:37:13 <Roget>	Is it the same prefab as when the site was under construction?
Nov 23 21:37:44 <Aphex_>	Would Collin notice anything else?
Nov 23 21:37:53 <lurkd>	Jason, the clearing is about 100 meters in diamter.
Nov 23 21:37:57 <lurkd>	*diameter.
Nov 23 21:38:06 <lurkd>	The pond is in the center.
Nov 23 21:38:23 <lurkd>	Ralph, it's a different prefab.
Nov 23 21:38:46 <lurkd>	Chloe just sees the forest.
Nov 23 21:39:28 <Echo>	"It's tight out there. Woodline's close up on us. Got a buildin' not too far from the water."
Nov 23 21:40:00 <Echo>	Jason unbuckles from his seat and starts turning the topside hatch's wheel.
Nov 23 21:40:03 <Soots>	"Copy that, any suggestions for engagement?"
Nov 23 21:40:11 <Soots>	"Wait!"
Nov 23 21:40:17 <Soots>	"Someone check environment."
Nov 23 21:40:22 <Echo>	He freezes.
Nov 23 21:40:28 <Roget>	Ralph checks it. Does it look breathable?
Nov 23 21:40:36 <Echo>	"It'd be goin' off if it was fucked up, right?"
Nov 23 21:40:54 <lurkd>	Yes it is.  High humidity levels with a slight windchill.
Nov 23 21:41:11 <Roget>	"Yeah, yer good."
Nov 23 21:41:12 <lurkd>	Breathable that is.
Nov 23 21:42:16 <Echo>	Jason gives it a few twirls and pops the hatch. "Well..."
Nov 23 21:42:40 <Maddy>	Alice gets up, checking her gear again
Nov 23 21:42:43 <Echo>	"I'd suggest gettin' set up on shore as quick as possible, and gettin' some eyes on any entrances to that buildin'."
Nov 23 21:42:52 <lurkd>	The air smells musty outside.
Nov 23 21:42:57 <Echo>	"But, uh, keep yer eyes peeled on that woodline."
Nov 23 21:43:18 *	Nightvale has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
Nov 23 21:43:25 <Soots>	"Alright. I presume you'll take point. I can bring up the rear and keep an eye out on the woods."
Nov 23 21:44:10 <lurkd>	Someone can roll survival if they have it.
Nov 23 21:44:31 <Echo>	He drops the 60, letting his sling catch it, pulls his sidearm from its holster, and hauls himself up the ladder, leading up and out with the pistol in hand.
Nov 23 21:45:06 <Maddy>	Alice keeps her eyes peeled as she lookds ahead.
Nov 23 21:45:37 <lurkd>	There's a light haze in the air.  The wind rustles the tree branches.
Nov 23 21:45:44 <Aphex_>	Collin stands, checks his gear again, then climbs out after Jason.
Nov 23 21:45:50 <Roget>	Ralph climbs out after the people who are out climb out
Nov 23 21:46:02 <Echo>	"Quiet as hell out here."
Nov 23 21:46:03 <Soots>	Chloe just as she says, climbs out last.
Nov 23 21:46:44 <lurkd>	The building is up ahead.  It's small and looks like something that is built for quick deployment.  There's writing on the side.  'U.E.D. Mobile Research Outpost 01'
Nov 23 21:47:11 <Maddy>	"U.E.D?"
Nov 23 21:47:46 <Roget>	"Never heard of it."
Nov 23 21:48:00 <Soots>	"Same here."
Nov 23 21:48:28 <Echo>	"I got no idea." Jason looks down off the side of the sub. There a dock? Or is he going down into water?
Nov 23 21:48:36 <Aphex_>	Collin glances quizzically at the writing.
Nov 23 21:49:30 <lurkd>	Jason, there's no dock.
Nov 23 21:51:02 <Echo>	"We, uh... anybody see anything in the water?"
Nov 23 21:51:58 <lurkd>	There is nothing in the pond except the sub.  It looks fairly safe to everyone.
Nov 23 21:52:03 <Maddy>	"Looks ok to me."
Nov 23 21:52:17 <Roget>	"... who wants to go first?"
Nov 23 21:52:21 <Soots>	"Don't see anything suspicious."
Nov 23 21:52:48 <Echo>	After a few more checks, Jason slings the 60 around to his back and plunges in, knees bent and feet first
Nov 23 21:52:50 <lurkd>	In fact it looks surprisingly shallow.  Shallow enough to wade to shore.

Nov 23 21:53:18 <lurkd>	OOOH!  Cold!
Nov 23 21:53:46 <lurkd>	He makes it.
Nov 23 21:54:02 <Maddy>	Alice follows.
Nov 23 21:54:10 <Roget>	Ralph follows after them
Nov 23 21:54:20 <Aphex_>	Collin follows suit.
Nov 23 21:54:30 <lurkd>	Everyone makes it to shore.
Nov 23 21:54:35 <Soots>	After everyone goes, Chloe follows
Nov 23 21:54:46 <lurkd>	Roll survival for those who have it.
Nov 23 21:55:31 <Echo>	Jason comes up out of the water with the 60 at the ready, checking around for any obvious entrances into the facility. "Anybody see a body layin' around?"
Nov 23 21:56:08 <Aphex_>	6df+4 I have some
Nov 23 21:56:09 <Glacon>	Aphex_: I have some: 2 (6df+4=-, -, 0, 0, -, +)
Nov 23 21:56:12 <lurkd>	The door is off it's hinges.  There are no signs of blood, but it looks a bit trashed inside.
Nov 23 21:56:17 <Roget>	"I just see trees and a trailer. And water. And a submarine. No dead people, though."
Nov 23 21:56:26 <Soots>	"Don't see any bodies."
Nov 23 21:57:06 <lurkd>	Collin:  The air, trees, and soil.  If you had to take a wild guess, you'd say the team is in the middle of a Taiga forest.
Nov 23 21:57:32 *	Pres|Shower is now known as Pres
Nov 23 21:58:14 <Echo>	Jason shivers a little and moves toward the busted door. "Looks like there was some violence done here."
Nov 23 21:58:20 <Aphex_>	Collin neglects to say anything in regards to that, it's probably pretty obvious.
Nov 23 21:58:35 <Aphex_>	He follows the others.
Nov 23 21:59:00 <Soots>	Chloe does /not/ stand infront of the door. She's off to the side.
Nov 23 21:59:01 <Roget>	"Probably wasn't the chick who caught a few rounds in the face, right?"
Nov 23 21:59:20 <Echo>	"Buddy, you tell me."
Nov 23 21:59:32 <Roget>	Ralph has no such misgivings, and is standing more or less in front of the door
Nov 23 21:59:35 <lurkd>	Jason, it's quiet inside.  No bullet holes or signs of blood still.  Just overturned furniture and equipment.
Nov 23 21:59:39 <Roget>	Peering in
Nov 23 22:00:15 <lurkd>	Anyone looking in can see the same thing.  The windows allow enough light in.
Nov 23 22:00:39 <Roget>	What kind of equipment?
Nov 23 22:00:41 <Echo>	Any sort of specialized-looking equipment? Medical supplies, food?
Nov 23 22:00:52 <Echo>	Weapons?
Nov 23 22:00:53 <lurkd>	Research and medical equipment.
Nov 23 22:00:59 <lurkd>	No weapns.
Nov 23 22:01:01 <Roget>	Any stethoscopes?
Nov 23 22:01:19 <Echo>	"Alice, you wanna poke around?"
Nov 23 22:02:09 <Maddy>	"Sure." She steps forward, trying to dicern what they were researcing here.
Nov 23 22:02:32 <Echo>	He pats her on the back as she goes in, grabs her vest's drag handle, and follows behind her, dropping the 60 and pulling his handgun back out.
Nov 23 22:03:11 <lurkd>	Alice, it's broken apart.  Bunson burners, glass tubes, microscopes... it's trashed.
Nov 23 22:03:27 <Roget>	Ralph watches the surrounding woods. Anything moving?
Nov 23 22:03:31 <lurkd>	Alice does spot an open office though.
Nov 23 22:03:45 <lurkd>	Ralph, there's no movement.
Nov 23 22:03:54 <Maddy>	"Got an office back here."
Nov 23 22:04:11 <Aphex_>	Collin guards, watching the treeline.
Nov 23 22:04:26 <Roget>	"See anything, Collin? Maybe... a dead person?"
Nov 23 22:04:29 <Soots>	Chloe guards the inside, watching Jason and Alice.
Nov 23 22:05:07 <Aphex_>	"Nada. Have you seen anything?" He continues to scan, rifle in low ready, just in case.
Nov 23 22:05:40 <lurkd>	Alice, this office looks slightly less trashed.
Nov 23 22:06:03 <Maddy>	"Not as messy back here. Wanna check it out?"
Nov 23 22:06:07 <Echo>	Jason breaks off from Alice, letting go of her vest and holstering his pistol. There any papers laying around? Documents with headers, official-looking seals or letterhead?
Nov 23 22:06:25 <Echo>	"Let's go. Chloe, you got security?"
Nov 23 22:06:52 <lurkd>	Jason, you step on a piece of paper.
Nov 23 22:07:21 <Roget>	"Nope. Not even one dead body."
Nov 23 22:07:46 <lurkd>	Does Alice look inside the office?
Nov 23 22:08:04 <Maddy>	Alice heads into the office!
Nov 23 22:08:06 <Soots>	"Yep."
Nov 23 22:08:35 <Aphex_>	"It's like she just.../poof/." Still scanning.
Nov 23 22:08:38 <lurkd>	Alice, you see the desk in a messy state.  http://s2.postimg.org/f83056ng9/IMG_SCP.jpg
Nov 23 22:08:41 <Echo>	He snatches it up and follows Alice, pulling his handgun back out. <<We got *nothin* out there?>>
Nov 23 22:09:14 <lurkd>	Jason, it looks like a draft: http://pastebin.com/qqg7VWh8
Nov 23 22:09:19 <Aphex_>	<<A-firm.>>
Nov 23 22:09:43 <Maddy>	"Uuuhhhh...." Alice picks up one of the sketches. "Look at this hun."
Nov 23 22:09:44 <Roget>	"More like glug, since it was in water and all."
Nov 23 22:09:48 <Roget>	"Or splash, or something."
Nov 23 22:09:53 <Roget>	"Some water sound."
Nov 23 22:09:56 <Echo>	"..."
Nov 23 22:10:20 <Echo>	"Uhhhhh, fuck."
Nov 23 22:11:04 <Echo>	He shoves the document off to Alice. "Chloe! Stand to!" He mashes his radio again. <<Ralph, Collin, uh, be advised, there might be some shit out here with us. Stand by.>>
Nov 23 22:11:19 <Aphex_>	"Eh, whatever the noise, she's gone." Collin shrugs.
Nov 23 22:11:41 <Maddy>	She reads! she makes a face like OH DEAR!
Nov 23 22:12:00 <lurkd>	Everyone in the building, PERC!
Nov 23 22:12:09 <Maddy>	6df+6 "Shiiiiit."
Nov 23 22:12:11 <Glacon>	Maddy: "Shiiiiit.": 6 (6df+6=-, -, +, 0, 0, +)

Nov 23 22:12:28 <Maddy>	Alice does the light thing. *click*
Nov 23 22:12:32 <Aphex_>	Collin shoulders his rifle and flicks his taclight on.
Nov 23 22:12:36 <Echo>	6df+6 Jason taps his helmet light on.
Nov 23 22:12:37 <Glacon>	Echo: Jason taps his helmet light on.: 5 (6df+6=-, 0, +, -, +, -)
Nov 23 22:12:49 <Soots>	Chloe complies, putting on ear plugs and flicks her taclight on.
Nov 23 22:13:02 <Roget>	Ralph looks around. He has no earplugs or flashlights. "What's happened?"
Nov 23 22:14:22 <Aphex_>	"Something dangerous I'm sure."
Nov 23 22:14:33 <Echo>	<<Keep a lookout. We got a report looks like an SCP document. Predatory pack hunters, look like the heads'a barn owls, except bigger.>>
Nov 23 22:14:39 <lurkd>	All of a sudden, the sound around /everyone/ drowns out and nobody can hear shit except a light ringing in their ears.  Chloe, clear down at the opposite side of the building.  You see something.  Jason only catches a glimpse of it in his periphery. http://scpsandbox2.wdfiles.com/local--files/lurk-s-lair-ii/SHADOW_PERSON_2.jpg
Nov 23 22:14:42 <Roget>	"You don't happen to by chance have spare earplugs, do you?"
Nov 23 22:14:59 <Roget>	"Gah fuck!"
Nov 23 22:15:00 <lurkd>	You can't hear anyting.
Nov 23 22:15:03 <Soots>	!!!
Nov 23 22:15:25 <Soots>	Chloe cries out the location of the figure and points towards it.
Nov 23 22:15:34 <Maddy>	Alice signs for a second, stops, reallizing she's probably the only one who can do that. Damn.
Nov 23 22:15:42 <Roget>	Ralph looks at Collin and makes the most concerned hand gestures possible
Nov 23 22:15:48 <Echo>	"Gah, fuck!" Jason throws himself against the door frame, taking cover against it and getting mostly out of line of sight, just peeking around, weapon aimed in.
Nov 23 22:15:54 <lurkd>	Chloe, no one can hear.  But the pointing helps.
Nov 23 22:16:18 <Echo>	He hastily shoves in a pair of earplugs, then looks back around the corner, trying to spot his target again.

Nov 23 22:20:08 <lurkd>	Ralph, you see something rush out of the building and stops just in you line of view.  It opens it's eyes and stares you down, floating a foot or so above the ground.  Roll agility.
Nov 23 22:20:34 <Roget>	6df+6 well that escalated quickly

Nov 23 22:21:15 <Soots>	Chloe dives into cover.
Nov 23 22:21:21 <Roget>	Ralph does a fucking sweet roll to leap out of harms way

Nov 23 22:21:48 <lurkd>	It circles around for another pass.  Yes, roll what you need to for your turn.
Nov 23 22:22:01 <Echo>	Jason steps out of the office, moving towards Chloe.
Nov 23 22:22:17 <lurkd>	People inside the building can probably see commotion outside of the windows.

Nov 23 22:22:59 <lurkd>	Jason, you can't hear anything still.
Nov 23 22:23:14 <lurkd>	Shots miss and it swoops toward Ralph again.
Nov 23 22:23:47 <Soots>	Chloe hears gunfire. "Shit's happening outside!"
Nov 23 22:23:58 <lurkd>	Chloe, you can't hear anything.
Nov 23 22:24:16 <lurkd>	Nobody does.  They just see a lot of commotion outside.
Nov 23 22:24:16 <Soots>	Oh redact then
Nov 23 22:24:36 <Maddy>	Alice heads along with Jason.
Nov 23 22:24:46 <Roget>	Does Ralph need to dodge again?
Nov 23 22:24:57 <lurkd>	Ralph it makes contact with you and almost envelopes your entire body.
Nov 23 22:25:19 <Roget>	What to roll for struggle
Nov 23 22:25:33 <lurkd>	Mdef or STR for Ralphie please.
Nov 23 22:25:39 <Soots>	Chloe looks out a window carefully. Can she see what's happening?
Nov 23 22:26:06 <lurkd>	Chloe, yes.
Nov 23 22:26:14 <Roget>	6df+5 MY MIND
Nov 23 22:26:15 <Glacon>	Roget: MY MIND: 6 (6df+5=-, -, +, +, 0, +)
Nov 23 22:26:53 <lurkd>	Oooh not enough.  Something strange happens and it's all of a sudden gone.  The sound returns and everyone can hear agina.
Nov 23 22:26:55 <lurkd>	*again.
Nov 23 22:26:56 <Soots>	Chloe's eyes go wide but with the creature on top of Ralph, she can't shoot without risking Ralph
Nov 23 22:27:02 <Soots>	"RALPH!"
Nov 23 22:27:23 <Soots>	"Aww shit Jason!"
Nov 23 22:27:23 <Echo>	"GUYS. Bring it in! *Now*."
Nov 23 22:27:35 <Aphex_>	"FUCK." Collin nearly attempts something stupid.
Nov 23 22:27:35 <Roget>	*TERROR NOISES*
Nov 23 22:27:52 <Soots>	Chloe takes out her cord. Can she roll melee to subdue Ralph?
Nov 23 22:27:56 <Echo>	"Yeah, I know, I know." He stomps outside past Chloe, to stand in the daylight.
Nov 23 22:27:59 <lurkd>	Roget, you have a strange vinegar taste in your mouth, but otherwise you feel fine.
Nov 23 22:28:00 <Soots>	Well, after she exits the building.
Nov 23 22:28:27 <Roget>	"Get this goddamned motherfucker off my ass!"
Nov 23 22:28:54 <Aphex_>	"Gimme a FUCKING SECOND." Collin is now flipping his shit.
Nov 23 22:28:58 <Echo>	Jason looks out the door. "Oh, *fuck*!"
Nov 23 22:29:17 <Soots>	"Jason, what did you read in that document?"
Nov 23 22:29:25 <lurkd>	It's gone.
Nov 23 22:29:32 <lurkd>	No trace of it.
Nov 23 22:29:38 <Aphex_>	Can Collin roll to free Ralph?
Nov 23 22:29:41 <lurkd>	WTF, where did it go?
Nov 23 22:30:27 <Maddy>	"I don't like this at all."
Nov 23 22:30:28 <Echo>	Disregard that then.
Nov 23 22:30:41 <Echo>	"Alice, you wanna handle that?"
Nov 23 22:30:47 <Echo>	Jason heads outside, in the daylight.
Nov 23 22:31:12 <Soots>	Chloe does the same.
Nov 23 22:31:18 <Soots>	She watches Ralph very carefully.
Nov 23 22:31:27 <lurkd>	Who's looking at Ralph?
Nov 23 22:31:37 <Soots>	chloe
Nov 23 22:31:42 <Aphex_>	Collin is as well.
Nov 23 22:32:33 <lurkd>	Ralph's eyes... they are now lined with bioluminescent and photophoric tissue.  Very strange.  Ralph doesn't notice.
Nov 23 22:32:46 <Maddy>	"The doccument seems to detail the afformentioned predatory darkness." Alice explains as they head out. "Only really hang out in dimly lit areas, they seem to have scales and can do all kinda of freaky shit." she is also looking at Ralph
Nov 23 22:33:23 <Soots>	Chloe is begining to freak out, but outside she keeps a calm fascade
Nov 23 22:33:27 <Roget>	Does Ralph appear to be 'out of it' as the common vernacular goes?
Nov 23 22:33:37 <Aphex_>	"Ralph? You okay?" Collin attempts to calm the fuck down.
Nov 23 22:33:48 <lurkd>	Ralph, you feel alright.
Nov 23 22:34:17 <Soots>	"Can I see the document?"
Nov 23 22:34:18 <Roget>	"..."
Nov 23 22:34:38 <Maddy>	"Sonic concussions, partially intangible, sound canceling...mental subbordination, levitation." she hands it to Chloe.
Nov 23 22:35:01 <Roget>	Ralph sits down. He looks focused.

Nov 23 22:35:16 <Aphex_>	Collin waves a hand in front of Ralph's face.
Nov 23 22:35:22 <Soots>	Chloe quickly reads the document. "Alright. Jason, I'm going to tie up Ralph, you okay with that?"
Nov 23 22:35:32 <Soots>	She says this with a low voice.
Nov 23 22:35:36 <Roget>	Ralph shooes his hand away. "Fine. Give me a minute."
Nov 23 22:35:39 <Echo>	Jason still hasn't taken notice of Ralph. He taps the plunger on his weapon's taclight, turning on the high-power source. "Huh?"
Nov 23 22:36:03 <Soots>	"Jason. Look at his eyes."
Nov 23 22:36:10 <Aphex_>	Collin is now suspicious of Ralph's behavior.
Nov 23 22:36:37 <Soots>	Chloe is holding a bundle of parachute cord.
Nov 23 22:36:41 <Echo>	"We got somethin' in that build-" He stares down at Ralph. "Yo, Ralph, right here." He snaps his fingers off to his left side.
Nov 23 22:37:03 <Roget>	"Give me a minute."
Nov 23 22:37:18 <Echo>	"You ain't got a minute."
Nov 23 22:37:35 <Roget>	"It's talking to me."
Nov 23 22:37:41 <Echo>	"..."
Nov 23 22:37:54 <Soots>	"..."
Nov 23 22:38:00 <Aphex_>	"..."
Nov 23 22:38:02 <Echo>	Jason takes a few steps back. "All right. Then we give him a minute."
Nov 23 22:38:29 <Aphex_>	Collin stands near Ralph, on guard.
Nov 23 22:38:30 <Maddy>	"Seems fair."
Nov 23 22:38:46 <Roget>	Ralph looks like he's concentrating quite a bit

Nov 23 22:46:02 <Echo>	"Ralph, you need to put your weapon on the ground for us."
Nov 23 22:46:18 <Aphex_>	Collin watches Ralph closely, ready to do something if he must.
Nov 23 22:46:35 <Roget>	Ralph shakily puts his gun down, and clumsily slides it to them. He doesn't look at anybody
Nov 23 22:47:25 <Soots>	Chloe takes the pistol.
Nov 23 22:47:36 <Maddy>	"Alright. Guess we play ball for now?"
Nov 23 22:47:59 <Soots>	"Don't have much alternatives."
Nov 23 22:48:41 <Echo>	"You, uh, you wanna walk out front, Ralph?"
Nov 23 22:48:59 <Roget>	Ralph is sweating a lot, and shaking. He's gone a bit pale, and has his hands on his head.
Nov 23 22:49:13 <Roget>	".... Give me a minute."
Nov 23 22:49:26 <Aphex_>	Collin has a look of growing concern on his face.
Nov 23 22:49:53 <Maddy>	She takes this moment to jot a note and pass it to Jason. {Might be able to dicern a weakness of the creatures if we go along a little.}
Nov 23 22:51:14 <Roget>	Ralph shakily stands up. He still looks like he's in a super bad way.
Nov 23 22:51:17 <Echo>	He looks at the note, turns away from Ralph, and sets it alight with his Zippo.
Nov 23 22:52:11 <Soots>	Chloe takes a moment to breath in and calm down.
Nov 23 22:52:22 <Aphex_>	Collin watches the treeline again, rifle at low ready.
Nov 23 22:53:09 <Roget>	"Somebody... please, let it in you... I can't have it in my head. I can't. It's too much it's too much it's...." Ralph trails off.
Nov 23 22:53:47 <Soots>	Chloe glaces at Jason. ~What should we do?~
Nov 23 22:54:00 <Roget>	He's breathing heavily
Nov 23 22:54:21 <Aphex_>	~This is gonna be interesting...~
Nov 23 22:54:27 <Maddy>	"Why does it have to be in someone to lead us?"
Nov 23 22:55:23 <Roget>	"It won't leave... unless it's in someone. It wants... to be... safe."
Nov 23 22:55:36 <Soots>	"Safe from what?"
Nov 23 22:56:00 <Aphex_>	"I could try and take it off your hands."
Nov 23 22:56:01 <Roget>	"Interlopers.... we need to be safe from the interlopers..."
Nov 23 22:57:15 <Soots>	"You mean..." she glances back at the document at hand. "The Foundation that resides here?"
Nov 23 22:57:37 <Roget>	Ralph gives Collin the most grateful look he's ever had. There are tears welling in his eyes. He points to Collin. "There."
Nov 23 22:58:01 <Soots>	"Wait Ralph--"
Nov 23 22:58:12 <Aphex_>	Collin quickly sets his rifle and sidearm down, almost throwing them down.
Nov 23 22:58:21 <Maddy>	"Collins, dear- oh cool."
Nov 23 22:58:37 <Roget>	"Clear you mind, Collin." Ralph walks over and touches his forehead
Nov 23 22:59:04 <Maddy>	Alice collects Collin's GUNS
Nov 23 22:59:10 <Aphex_>	~Yeah, I may have fucked up just now. Ah shit. Okay, okay, clear.~
Nov 23 23:01:20 <lurkd>	A shadow quickly passes between them and it is now in Collin.  Collin's eyes become shiny and glowing like Ralph's was.  A layer of dead tissue sluffs off of Ralph's eyes as he normalizes.
Nov 23 23:01:42 *	salmander has quit (Quit: How can a robot think with his elbows in the sink?)
Nov 23 23:01:58 <Roget>	Ralph stumbles backwards, clutching his eyes and crying out.
Nov 23 23:02:31 <Maddy>	Alice goes over to him, incase he falls. "You're ok, you're ok."
Nov 23 23:02:44 <lurkd>	Ralph it doesn't hurt, but it feels like a thick layer of mucus is peeling off.
Nov 23 23:03:00 <lurkd>	Your eyes are blurry but only for a moment.
Nov 23 23:03:07 <Roget>	Ralph doesn't seem to be talking much. He's mostly not all there mentally, because things in his brain makes Ralphie a dull boy.
Nov 23 23:03:32 <Echo>	"Collin? Sound off."
Nov 23 23:03:48 <Soots>	Chloe just stands there.
Nov 23 23:04:10 <Aphex_>	Collin simply stands, unarmed.
Nov 23 23:04:12 <Echo>	Jason takes a few steps closer, trying to get a good look at the changes to the eyes.
Nov 23 23:04:24 <Echo>	"You all right, dude?"
Nov 23 23:04:27 <Roget>	Ralph weakly rubs his eyes
Nov 23 23:04:44 <Aphex_>	"Fine." He's briefer than usual.
Nov 23 23:04:53 <Maddy>	"You need water, Ralph."
Nov 23 23:05:06 <Roget>	"..."
Nov 23 23:05:07 <lurkd>	Collin it feels crowded in your mind.
Nov 23 23:05:23 <lurkd>	Ralph feels alone in his own mind again.
Nov 23 23:05:40 <Roget>	Ralph feels his head with his hands, making sure everything is okay there.
Nov 23 23:05:52 <lurkd>	Ralph, it feel ok.
Nov 23 23:05:59 <Maddy>	Alice is offering him water
Nov 23 23:06:18 <Soots>	"Collin, what does it say to you?"
Nov 23 23:06:21 <Roget>	Ralph takes the water, and drinks it. He coughs a few times, and stands up.
Nov 23 23:08:03 <Aphex_>	"I'm asking questions."
Nov 23 23:08:31 <Roget>	"I'm sorry... I just can't deal with... things being in my mind."
Nov 23 23:08:32 <Soots>	"Alright...take your time..."
Nov 23 23:09:10 <Maddy>	"I'm with you there, man. No one blames you for that."
Nov 23 23:11:05 <Roget>	Ralph drinks more water, and shakes his head. "Is Collin okay?"
Nov 23 23:11:16 <Maddy>	"Says he's questioning it."
Nov 23 23:12:39 <Soots>	"Okay."
Nov 23 23:13:25 <Soots>	Chloe paces around a bit, still holding Ralph's pistol and wrapping her head around the situation. She pauses, takes out the document, reads it again, then paces once more.
Nov 23 23:14:05 <Echo>	"So, Alice, Chloe?"
Nov 23 23:14:21 <Soots>	"Yeah?"

Nov 23 23:15:28 <Maddy>	"Yeah, seems a good plan, honestly. It's that or just leave, not knowing what these things really want or need."
Nov 23 23:16:50 <Soots>	"We don't really have any alternative. We gotta find out what happened to the researcher and shut down the connection here."
Nov 23 23:17:25 *	Roget has changed the topic to: Pool Status: Better dead than red
Nov 23 23:19:19 <Soots>	"Collin. We good to go yet?"
Nov 23 23:19:48 <Aphex_>	"Alright..." Collin draws out the L.
Nov 23 23:20:05 <Aphex_>	"We're okay, follow me." Still brief.
Nov 23 23:20:34 <Aphex_>	He heads to the left, into the treeline.
Nov 23 23:20:49 <Soots>	Chloe turns to Ralph. "You gonna be alright?"
Nov 23 23:21:00 <Maddy>	Alice slings Collin's gear, getting up to follow.
Nov 23 23:21:02 <Roget>	"Yeah... can I pretty please have my gun back?"
Nov 23 23:21:27 <Echo>	Jason brings up drag, letting Chloe take point.
Nov 23 23:22:42 <lurkd>	The forest is thick and moist.  Lots of dead leaves and branches litter the ground.
Nov 23 23:22:55 <Soots>	Chloe hands Ralph his pistol back and takes point next to Collin.
Nov 23 23:23:43 <Roget>	Ralph follows along, still shaking his head every few seconds
Nov 23 23:25:08 <Aphex_>	Collin mumbles a few words to himself, nothing distinguishable.
Nov 23 23:25:43 <lurkd>	Ralph, a -1 penalty to mdef and a -2 to perception because he really isn't focused.

Nov 23 23:26:25 <lurkd>	As the group walks through the woods, the clearing behind them gets harder and harder to see.
Nov 23 23:26:45 <Maddy>	Alice keeps looking back, trying to keep her barrings of where the shit they are
Nov 23 23:27:08 <Echo>	Jason cracks a chemlight.
Nov 23 23:27:11 <Echo>	Tosses it down.
Nov 23 23:27:19 <Echo>	Bright, bright green.
Nov 23 23:28:19 <Soots>	Chloe glances at Jason and takes note.
Nov 23 23:28:23 <lurkd>	It can be easily seen in the dim light.  Good work, Jason.

Nov 23 23:30:06 <Echo>	A few dozen meters away, he repeats this, giving them a point to point.
Nov 23 23:30:18 <Maddy>	Alice feels kinda dumb for not thinking of this.
Nov 23 23:30:40 <Echo>	Another minute or so later, he tosses another down, giving them a line to follow.

Nov 23 23:32:45 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe stops.
Nov 23 23:32:57 <Maddy>	"Kay."
Nov 23 23:33:13 <lurkd>	The forest is quiet but nothing is apparent around the group.
Nov 23 23:34:08 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe readies her PDW, just in case.
Nov 23 23:34:26 <Aphex_>	"It says...we're here." He pauses mid-sentence.
Nov 23 23:34:48 <Aphex_>	"Cover your ears." He does the same.
Nov 23 23:35:04 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe complies.
Nov 23 23:35:05 <Maddy>	Alice does\!

Nov 23 23:35:52 <lurkd>	Jason, you can't see anything, but your spidey senses are tingling that something else is among you.
Nov 23 23:38:47 <Aphex_>	Collin stands, stiff.
Nov 23 23:39:29 <lurkd>	The entity rises out of Collin half way and faces the woods.  It lets out an ear piercing bark that echoes for ages.  A slight shockwave can even be seen.  *BARK* *bark* *bark*
Nov 23 23:40:23 <lurkd>	One by one, in the woods ahead, they start to come out.  Again, all sound drowns out and nobody can hear anything.  http://i.imgur.com/bMq7DDz.gif
Nov 23 23:40:44 <Maddy>	"..."
Nov 23 23:41:09 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe is like O_O
Nov 23 23:41:28 <rogbrb>	Ralph looks very anxious
Nov 23 23:41:33 <Echo>	"Did it say anything else to you? While we were walkin'?"

Nov 23 23:41:50 <lurkd>	Jason, your talking goes unheard.
Nov 23 23:42:36 <lurkd>	The entity sticking halfway out of Collin begins to communicate by blinking it's eyes very rapidly.  The others respond in kind.  This goes on for about a minute.
Nov 23 23:43:29 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe watches.
Nov 23 23:43:54 <Echo>	Jason watches. And plans.
Nov 23 23:44:06 <Echo>	Yep. That's an idea.
Nov 23 23:45:37 <lurkd>	The entity shrinks back into Collin and the others woosh off and vanish.
Nov 23 23:47:32 <Aphex_>	Collin continues on.
Nov 23 23:48:11 <lurkd>	Everyone can see blinking eyes surrounding them, keeping close watch.
Nov 23 23:48:11 <Maddy>	"What's the word, Collin?"
Nov 23 23:48:24 <lurkd>	Though the eyes are fairly distant.
Nov 23 23:48:57 <Aphex_>	"We get the woman as long was we don't piss them off."
Nov 23 23:49:35 <Maddy>	"Hmm."
Nov 23 23:49:46 <lurkd>	Up ahead, another clearing.  As well as... another prefab unit.  This one is labeled 'U.E.D. Research Outpost 02'.
Nov 23 23:49:52 <Maddy>	"Think that's enough to close this connection?"
Nov 23 23:49:59 <Echo>	"And how do we not do that?"
Nov 23 23:50:11 <Echo>	"Did they say anything to you? What to do, what not to do?"
Nov 23 23:50:23 <Aphex_>	"Just don't get hostile, I'll ask more."
Nov 23 23:50:52 <Roget>	Ralph holsters his gun.
Nov 23 23:51:18 <lurkd>	As the team steps into the second clearing, PERC!
Nov 23 23:51:25 <Maddy>	Alice doesn't holster shit but she keeps her gun at a low ready.

Nov 23 23:54:39 <lurkd>	Jason, Ralph.  This time, there was a struggle here.  A big one.  The bodies of the 'interlopers' hang from the trees, gutted.
Nov 23 23:55:05 <Echo>	Style of clothing?
Nov 23 23:55:34 <lurkd>	Lab coats and security by the looks of it, though not the Foundation issued garb.
Nov 23 23:55:41 <Aphex_>	"Jason."
Nov 23 23:55:47 <Echo>	"Yeah?"
Nov 23 23:55:53 <Echo>	Jason freezes.
Nov 23 23:55:55 <Maddy>	"Fan-fucking-tastic."
Nov 23 23:56:09 <Aphex_>	"Got you specifics." Collin isn't looking at the bodies.
Nov 23 23:56:17 <Echo>	"What's up?" He keeps his voice low.
Nov 23 23:56:32 <lurkd>	A few entities stand guard around the prefab but don't seem interested in the group.
Nov 23 23:56:37 <Roget>	"Fucking hell." Ralph looks at the bodies. Medical to determine cause of death?
Nov 23 23:56:57 <lurkd>	Roll medical, Ralphie
Nov 23 23:57:00 <Aphex_>	"We're just here for the researcher, anything else risks it."

Nov 23 23:57:56 <lurkd>	Ralph, death by horrific lacerations.
Nov 23 23:58:34 <lurkd>	There seems to be power to the prefab and a humanoid figure is seen passing by the window.
Nov 23 23:59:12 <Roget>	"Jason, they died of lacerations... pretty gruesome." Ralph is whispering and has his best srs face.
Nov 23 23:59:13 <Echo>	Jason starts off in that direction. "Best if we stay together, Collin?"
Nov 24 00:02:04 <Aphex_>	"...Yes." He's /veerrryy/ hesitant to say that.
Nov 24 00:03:29 <Echo>	He nods to Ralph, then looks back to Collin. "Somethin' wrong?"
Nov 24 00:03:57 <Aphex_>	"No."
Nov 24 00:05:30 <Echo>	With few other options, Jason starts into the prefab, looking around. Description of the environment?
Nov 24 00:05:52 <Maddy>	Alice keeps up with the others, ready for mayhem should it come.
Nov 24 00:06:20 <Aphex_>	Collin is still steady-on.
Nov 24 00:07:43 <lurkd>	The prefab looks fairly operational.  You see Lisa near collapse, bleeding out in a chair.  Next to her is a containment chamber housing a few smaller entities.
Nov 24 00:08:12 <Echo>	"Oh, shit... uh, Alice? Ralph? Docs up."
Nov 24 00:08:27 <Roget>	"Shit." Ralph starts heading to her, then turns to Collin. "Is it okay to treat her?"
Nov 24 00:08:33 <lurkd>	Her breath s shaky.
Nov 24 00:08:49 <Maddy>	"On it." she slings her weapon, aproaching the lady too, stopping and waiting for an answer.
Nov 24 00:09:12 <Aphex_>	"Go ahead."
Nov 24 00:09:30 <lurkd>	Lisa:  *coughing*
Nov 24 00:09:50 <Maddy>	"You want this or should I?"
Nov 24 00:09:57 <Roget>	Ralph makes a beeline for her, and starts treating the injuries.
Nov 24 00:10:01 <Roget>	"I got this."

Nov 24 00:11:28 <lurkd>	Ralph is able to stabilize her and stop most of the bleeding coming from the exit wounds.  She's lucky to still be alive.
Nov 24 00:12:06 <Roget>	"Lisa, can you hear me? We're from 354."
Nov 24 00:12:55 <lurkd>	"Yes... you came for me..."  She smiles.  Her eyes have that same photophoric tissue that Collin's eyes have right now.
Nov 24 00:13:13 <lurkd>	*cough*
Nov 24 00:13:25 <Aphex_>	Would Collin notice this?
Nov 24 00:13:33 <lurkd>	Everyone would.
Nov 24 00:13:39 <Roget>	"... Yeah, we did."
Nov 24 00:13:58 <lurkd>	"It's inside me... it's keeping most of the pain away..."
Nov 24 00:14:08 <lurkd>	"I'm trying my best."
Nov 24 00:14:21 <Echo>	Jason faces away from her, so she doesn't have to immediately encounter the person who shot her half a dozen times.
Nov 24 00:18:38 <lurkd>	The containment chamber hums with electricity.
Nov 24 00:19:07 <Roget>	"So... you have an entity inside you?"
Nov 24 00:19:16 <lurkd>	She nods.
Nov 24 00:19:45 <Maddy>	"Collin, what do we have to do?"
Nov 24 00:20:48 <Aphex_>	"She's not finished." He's rather disheartened.
Nov 24 00:20:57 <Roget>	"Finished what?"
Nov 24 00:21:07 <lurkd>	*cough*  "Turning this off."
Nov 24 00:21:11 *	Bouncl has quit (Quit: take it and shove it)
Nov 24 00:21:22 <Aphex_>	"Freeing them." He points a bit weakly.
Nov 24 00:21:25 <lurkd>	She points to the containment chamber housing the smaller entities inside.
Nov 24 00:21:35 <Maddy>	"Tell us what to do then."
Nov 24 00:22:18 <lurkd>	"The power... should be a breaker on the side of the building."
Nov 24 00:22:57 <lurkd>	"I can't move to get to it."
Nov 24 00:23:07 <Roget>	"Will anything attack us out there?"
Nov 24 00:23:10 <Echo>	"Didn't they say not to touch anything else?"
Nov 24 00:24:39 <Maddy>	"If this is what they need Im sure they wont mind us helping." she turns to Collin. "Assuming they're gonna leave us alone now."
Nov 24 00:24:48 <Aphex_>	"All they want is their children, just do what she says..."
Nov 24 00:25:26 <Echo>	"All right. I mean, no disagreement here. Just don't wanna fuck with the wrong thing."
Nov 24 00:25:54 <Maddy>	Alice heads for the side of the building with le breaker.
Nov 24 00:26:50 <Roget>	Ralph stays with his patient
Nov 24 00:27:34 <lurkd>	Alice, you see it.  A big switch.
Nov 24 00:28:14 <Maddy>	<<Ok, everyon ready? Gonna throw the switch.>>
Nov 24 00:29:00 <Echo>	<<Get back in here quick after you throw it.>>

Nov 24 00:30:07 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe is totes there
Nov 24 00:30:09 <Aphex_>	Collin's been sitting with Ralph and Lisa, but he doesn't respond.
Nov 24 00:30:11 <Maddy>	She heads back to the others after she pulls and whatnot
Nov 24 00:30:13 <lurkd>	The building goes dark.
Nov 24 00:30:52 <lurkd>	Lisa: "Alright... open it... don't touch it directly."
Nov 24 00:31:43 <Echo>	Jason fiddles with the aiming module on his machine gun and pops it off.
Nov 24 00:31:52 <lurkd>	Entities start to slowly close in and enter the building.  They watch in anticipation.
Nov 24 00:32:00 <lurkd>	*clink*
Nov 24 00:32:18 <lurkd>	The containment cell opens and several small entities float out.
Nov 24 00:32:45 <lurkd>	Everyone just looks at one another for a bit.
Nov 24 00:33:14 <lurkd>	One of the little ones look directly at Alice.
Nov 24 00:33:21 <lurkd>	*blinking*
Nov 24 00:33:55 <Echo>	"Alice, come over here."
Nov 24 00:34:28 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe watches the strange entities
Nov 24 00:34:34 <Maddy>	Alice sidles to her better half
Nov 24 00:34:52 <Maddy>	"They're kinda cute in a terrifying way."
Nov 24 00:35:18 <Roget>	Ralph watches them, keeping one eye on Lisa
Nov 24 00:35:36 <lurkd>	The entity inside Collin and Lisa removes themselves.  Lisa winces in pain.  "A-ah..."
Nov 24 00:35:37 *	Puppetmaster has quit (Excess Flood)
Nov 24 00:35:37 <Echo>	He passes her a glowstick. "All right... you guys wanna, uh, get back to the sub?"
Nov 24 00:36:01 <lurkd>	Lisa nods.  "Yes.. please."
Nov 24 00:36:07 <Aphex_>	Collin falters backwards towards a wall.
Nov 24 00:36:07 <Tehpillowstar>	"No magical transition so I guess we have to."
Nov 24 00:36:07 *	Puppetmaster (strings@pulling.them) has joined #redpool
Nov 24 00:36:35 <lurkd>	All the entities with the exception of the one that was recently inside Collin woosh away very rapidly through the walls.
Nov 24 00:36:36 <Roget>	Ralph looks to Lisa. "Can you stand?"
Nov 24 00:36:50 <lurkd>	"Not really well, I'm afraid."
Nov 24 00:37:05 <Tehpillowstar>	"Jason, can you carry her?"
Nov 24 00:37:42 <Roget>	"I got it." Ralph picks up the Lisa
Nov 24 00:38:45 <lurkd>	The remaining entity floats a little ways from the group but not before depositing something on the ground at their feet:  http://media.liveauctiongroup.net/i/17608/17084563_3.jpg?v=8D0688CE0AB41F0
Nov 24 00:38:55 <Aphex_>	Collin recovers, then follows the others as they leave.
Nov 24 00:39:17 <lurkd>	It looks at everyone with a grateful expression in it's eyes.
Nov 24 00:39:55 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe glances a bit then approaches the object.
Nov 24 00:40:21 <lurkd>	Chloe, it looks solid and shimmers with iridescent colors.
Nov 24 00:40:29 <Tehpillowstar>	She glances at the group.
Nov 24 00:40:46 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe is wearing gloves, and tenatively picks it up.
Nov 24 00:40:48 <lurkd>	*blinking
Nov 24 00:40:51 <lurkd>	*blinking*
Nov 24 00:41:33 <Echo>	Jason starts back outside, carrying the 60.
Nov 24 00:41:41 <lurkd>	Chloe it's kinda heavy.  It's a little cold to the touch even through gloves.  The entity respectfully bows to everyone.
Nov 24 00:42:00 <Maddy>	Alice respectfully nods her head back and starts to follow Jason.
Nov 24 00:42:19 <Roget>	Ralph, carefully carrying Lisa, takes the caboose role in the back
Nov 24 00:42:20 <Tehpillowstar>	Chloe bows back

Nov 24 00:43:45 <Echo>	"You got 'er all right, Ralph?"
Nov 24 00:43:48 <Aphex_M>	Collin follows the others as they walk.
Nov 24 00:44:00 <lurkd>	Everyone follows the glowsticks, finds the sub, climbs in, and arrives back at #farrecon with Lisa.  Good work team.
Nov 24 00:44:01 <Echo>	Jason heads for the chemlights he left.
