(5:01:38 PM) Gold is now known as Cold_Fusion
(5:07:14 PM) GreenBankGM: When we last left our band of intrepid mares, they had been given a new plan by the Overmare to liberate the Stable from the invading changeling 'army'.  With only a short time to prepare and limited materials to prepare with they must attempt to remove the emergency charges from the atrium to destroy their nest underneath cryogenics.
(5:07:36 PM) GreenBankGM: Our story, resumes.
(5:07:58 PM) mode (+vvvv Zenith Spark_Plug Cold_Fusion Checklist) by GreenBankGM
(5:08:50 PM) ***Checklist sits silently, staring at a gray, gray Stable wall.
(5:09:53 PM) ***Spark_Plug is field striping her pistols, still looking like an absolute train wreak.
(5:10:15 PM) ***Zenith is darting around making preperations
(5:10:43 PM) ***Cold_Fusion fidgets a bit nervously. "Well...I guess it's all on us." She swallows.
(5:11:04 PM) Checklist: "... I'm going to need something to protect my hooves from damage."
(5:11:27 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I...can help with that I think..."
(5:11:27 PM) Checklist: "I have a feeling they will be seeing much use very soon."
(5:11:36 PM) ***Spark_Plug nods, "I have enough Barding for us all... Even grabbed a small on for Zennith."
(5:11:47 PM) ***Cold_Fusion shakes her head a moment and swallows. "Yes I can help with the hoof protect."
(5:11:52 PM) Spark_Plug: *one for
(5:12:09 PM) ***Checklist looks to Cold_Fusion, eyes inquisitive.
(5:12:12 PM) Cold_Fusion: "We'll need some metal for them though."
(5:12:29 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I'm pretty good at shaping simple objects."
(5:14:41 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Does anypony else need anything?"
(5:15:09 PM) ***Zenith unlocks the door to the storeroom after telling Rag Doll she was taking some supplies and starts gather a very small pile of stuff they might need
(5:15:11 PM) ***Spark_Plug inhails and takes her helmet off, "I do."
(5:15:20 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Alright what do you need?"
(5:15:33 PM) GreenBankGM: The Doctor tells her to take everything she needs.
(5:15:52 PM) Spark_Plug: "Theres something wrong with SATS on my pipbuck. if this is gonna be a big fight... I'll probably need it."
(5:16:09 PM) GreenBankGM: Inside the closet is an assortment of Healing Potion boxes, healing bandages, regular bandages, powders, and regular pain medications.
(5:16:10 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I'll have to take a look at it, but I might be able to help."
(5:16:25 PM) Cold_Fusion: "You probably over used it..."
(5:16:48 PM) ***Checklist slowly gets to her hooves, then goes in search of somewhere nice and quiet.
(5:16:59 PM) ***Spark_Plug shrugs, "I /really/ didn't want to get raped by that bug."
(5:17:14 PM) ***Cold_Fusion watches Checklist. "Try and find a sheet of metal or something heavy that doesn't look important."
(5:17:33 PM) Checklist: "... alright."
(5:17:39 PM) ***Cold_Fusion sighs to Spark_Plug. "I...don't really blame you there....here I'll at least take a look at it."
(5:18:28 PM) ***Spark_Plug rolls her sleeve up and holds her pipbucked leg out to Cold_Fusion as she lays down on her back, "this is so fucked up..."
(5:18:32 PM) ***Checklist starts looking for suitable metal for whatever it is Cold_Fusion is going to do.
(5:19:48 PM) ***Cold_Fusion gets her tools out and sets them down. Before anything else she runs through a quick diagnostic checklist to see what if it can detect what is wrong.
(5:21:04 PM) ***Spark_Plug stares at the ceiling, "You think Everything will get better after we kill all the bugs Cold?"
(5:21:23 PM) ***Cold_Fusion sighs. "Truthfully?"
(5:21:59 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Not entirely. The changelings have changed quite a lot."
(5:22:26 PM) Cold_Fusion: "The foals here being something we're going to deal with...not to mention the revelation...that several...ponies here were changelings."
(5:23:07 PM) Spark_Plug: "Not really, their here to try and rape us and turn this place into their little breeding ground where we're their live stock."
(5:23:38 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Not all of them tried to rape us...Generous put herself at pretty considerable risk I suspect to help us."
(5:23:59 PM) ***Spark_Plug blinks and looks at Cold_Fusion, "What?"
(5:24:33 PM) Cold_Fusion: "apparently my boss was a changeling...and has been working to save the stable."
(5:25:13 PM) ***Spark_Plug didn't know Generous was a Changling... "Bull shit. I'm not buying that crap."
(5:25:13 PM) ***Checklist asks around for metal scrap.
(5:25:37 PM) Cold_Fusion: "She confessed herself."
(5:25:45 PM) Cold_Fusion: "and overmare confirmed it."
(5:25:56 PM) ***Cold_Fusion sighs. "Just take my word I believe it."
(5:26:00 PM) GreenBankGM: One of the Petals sisters helpfully offers Checklist a couple of meal trays.
(5:26:31 PM) ***Checklist thanks them and heads back to Cold_Fusion.
(5:27:10 PM) ***Spark_Plug squirms, "Excuse me if I'm not very trusting of the things that did this to my face" she brushes her bangs aside
(5:27:53 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Then at the very least, trust me."
(5:28:01 PM) Cold_Fusion: "apparently everypony else does..."
(5:28:12 PM) GreenBankGM: Cold's basic check shows it to be a matrix power issue.
(5:28:28 PM) Checklist: "Excuse me."
(5:28:37 PM) ***Checklist taps Cold lightly.
(5:29:42 PM) Cold_Fusion: "give me a second I've just got to reset this matrix and I'll get to you."
(5:29:57 PM) ***Spark_Plug gives Cold_Fusion her best shooty look, then sighs, swishing her tail around a little. " I feel fucking useless right now Cold..."
(5:30:14 PM) ***Cold_Fusion starts with the repairs taking her time since she didn't want to mess it up further.
(5:30:51 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I wouldn't say useless."
(5:31:02 PM) ***Cold_Fusion starts closing up the pipbuck.
(5:31:14 PM) GreenBankGM: Cold discovers that all the fuse gems in the SATS array have burned out; she'll need to jury rig replacement.
(5:31:26 PM) Cold_Fusion: "You kept your head togeather when we were saving the security ponies and went for help.
(5:31:27 PM) Cold_Fusion: (redact the closing up then)
(5:31:36 PM) ***Checklist balances the trays on her back with little difficulty. She's like a walking table made of meat...
(5:32:30 PM) Cold_Fusion: "if you didn't...pretty sure Teflon and I wouldn't have been able to make our retreat safely."
(5:33:41 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs, "Cold I freaked the fuck out... You saved Teffy and I just hauled ass back here like a coward... and came back becuase I was Ashamed..." she looks back at the ceiling "Fuck, I can't even do any lightning magic properly."
(5:33:52 PM) ***Cold_Fusion looks at the gem array and curses under her breath. She considers her options...and started to open up her pipbuck for now this seemed like a much safer option. She wasn't likely to need her gems...and She didn't think a jury rig would do at the moment.
(5:35:02 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I can't speak on the lightnign magic thing, but a good survival instinct isn't something to be ashamed of...,and the important thing is you DID come back.."
(5:35:28 PM) ***Cold_Fusion looks to checklist. "Sorry this is taking so long. She fried her Gems."
(5:37:06 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs, "No... Its my talent... its how I got my Cutie mark." she nods down at her flank, "Its what I'm supposed to be good at..."
(5:37:35 PM) ***Zenith trots out of the storeroom and locks it behind her, trotting over to the others. "I grabbed some more healing potions and healing bandages to augment my magic...hopefully it's enough..."
(5:37:38 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Well I seem to recall you fried that changeling with lightning didn't you?"
(5:38:02 PM) ***Cold_Fusion nods. "Thank Zeni...I'm sure it will be."
(5:40:13 PM) Spark_Plug: "And I fired like 6 bolts befor I actuelly hit it."
(5:40:41 PM) Cold_Fusion: "And? Aiming magic isn't exactly easy...hell you saw how I screwed up my magic."
(5:40:46 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Damn near got you killed."
(5:41:03 PM) ***Checklist just looks on.
(5:41:09 PM) Cold_Fusion: "and proved the age old saying Guns don't kill ponies."
(5:45:14 PM) ***Cold_Fusion ends up screwing up and damaging her own crystals severely in the process of removing them. "Damn it." She really regretted not floating her tools, but she was trying to conserve energy...and that bit her in the flank
(5:45:25 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs, "I just wish I knew how to do more then levitate stuff and shoot lighting from my face..."
(5:46:16 PM) Cold_Fusion: "at least your talent is something you can actually use. Mine's related to Psuedo science that's be a proven failure time and again."
(5:46:59 PM) GreenBankGM: Cold's Pipbuck screen flares, then dies.... the after image slowly disappearing from the below the glass.
(5:47:17 PM) ***Cold_Fusion had turned her pipbuck off before working on it
(5:48:00 PM) GreenBankGM: Cold_Fusion's screen just burned out.
(5:48:43 PM) Spark_Plug: "I mean, You know a dozen spells, how do you do it?"
(5:48:48 PM) GreenBankGM: The group is now down two Pipbucks.
(5:48:48 PM) ***Cold_Fusion sighs. She knew how to use it without the screen...well mostly...just how to answer calls...since that was just press the center button when it rang.
(5:49:22 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Sorry I can't fix your Sats...and I probably fried my pipbuck trying it."
(5:49:33 PM) Cold_Fusion: "good thing we're heading to maintenance."
(5:49:40 PM) ***Spark_Plug groans, "Well FUCK!"
(5:49:49 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I only know a few it's just knowing how to use them..."
(5:50:11 PM) Checklist: "Oh."
(5:50:25 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs, "I'm just thinking with electricity."
(5:50:34 PM) ***Zenith fidgets
(5:50:45 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Try treating your magic like it's a battery I guess. Experiment."
(5:51:37 PM) ***Checklist looks down at her PipBuck, then turns and takes her metal trays in her mouth.
(5:51:37 PM) Cold_Fusion: "It's how I learned what I could do."
(5:51:53 PM) Spark_Plug: "Well... I know um... this one spell that does stuff with nerves..."
(5:51:54 PM) ***Cold_Fusion closes her eyes and takes a moment to calm down. she was a little rattled by her fuck up.
(5:52:17 PM) Spark_Plug: "The nerves in your body I mean..."
(5:52:30 PM) ***Zenith pats Cold_Fusion's back
(5:53:04 PM) Cold_Fusion: "You do both sometimes." Cold smiles and nuzzles Zenith a little. "Thanks Zeni..."
(5:53:41 PM) Spark_Plug: "Hey Zenith, I grabbed you some barding."
(5:54:06 PM) ***Cold_Fusion looks to the trays Checklist had aquired and taking a deep breath slowly started to shape and mold them into horse shoes. "Do you have any kind of prefrence what you want these to look like?"
(5:54:22 PM) Cold_Fusion: "also bring your hooves over I want these to fit snugly"
(5:54:28 PM) Spark_Plug: "And Cold, Is there, like, any way I could use Electricity any other way?"
(5:55:39 PM) ***Zenith hm's?
(5:55:40 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Let's see Could probably charge things, maybe mess with magnetism, and probably use it to as you mentioned mess with ponies nervous systems, but I'm no medical pony so don't ask me how."
(5:55:42 PM) Zenith: "Barding?"
(5:56:36 PM) ***Spark_Plug holds up a suit of Security Barding like her own, Except its really small, "Smallest size we had in there, try it on, see if it fits."
(5:57:16 PM) Checklist: "Hm."
(5:58:09 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Hooves put them here."
(5:58:18 PM) ***Cold_Fusion pats the slowly molding trays.
(5:58:28 PM) ***Checklist places her hooves as indicated.
(5:58:37 PM) Checklist: "Perhaps... add spikes?"
(5:59:21 PM) Zenith: "Oh...um...Thank you?" She takes the barding carefully
(5:59:26 PM) ***Cold_Fusion giggles softly. "It'll totally look cool."
(5:59:37 PM) ***Cold_Fusion adds spikes to her slowly molding metal shoes.
(6:00:03 PM) ***Spark_Plug smooths her spiky mane out and puts her helmet back on, "I got some for you too Cold, and a helmet."
(6:00:36 PM) ***Zenith puts it on with a little grimace
(6:01:30 PM) ***Checklist watches the metal warp itself to Cold's will, fascinated.
(6:02:37 PM) ***Spark_Plug whatches Cold work, then takes out her baton and hmmms... she'll wait till Cold_Fusion is done to voice her idea.
(6:02:39 PM) ***Zenith turns to watch Cold
(6:03:42 PM) ***Cold_Fusion smiles to Zenith a little and then closes her eyes as she works working from a mental image only she could see
(6:04:52 PM) Spark_Plug: "So... Zenith... uh..."
(6:06:42 PM) Zenith: "Hm?"
(6:06:45 PM) ***Spark_Plug fidget a little, "You're good at Medical magic right? I was wondering if you could... um... help me with something..."
(6:06:58 PM) ***Zenith blinks "Um...what?"
(6:09:13 PM) ***Cold_Fusion opens her eyes and looks at her work. "what do you think Check too tight, Too spikey? Make any comments now while I'm still shaping it."
(6:09:17 PM) Spark_Plug: "Uh... well... I know a little Spell that involves um... the nerves in Ponies bodies... uh... I was wondering... um... is there any way I could use it to help us with what We're about to do?"
(6:09:44 PM) ***Checklist inspects the spiked ponyshoes.
(6:10:12 PM) Checklist: "Just so long as it doesn't make it difficult for me to walk."
(6:10:25 PM) ***Zenith fidget "Like...well.../what/?"
(6:10:26 PM) Cold_Fusion: "oh!"
(6:11:04 PM) ***Cold_Fusion started to remove the spikes on the bottom of the hoof but then got the idea to instead make them more even and spread them out kind of like a tenderizer.
(6:11:38 PM) ***Spark_Plug shrugs, "I dunno... but I don't think making things climax in the middle of a fight is gunna help us much."
(6:12:05 PM) ***Zenith blushes "W-what?"
(6:12:58 PM) ***Spark_Plug blushes and fidgets, "nothing!"
(6:13:20 PM) ***Cold_Fusion shakes her head and looks over. "What was that? I wasn't paying attention."
(6:13:43 PM) Spark_Plug: "Nothing!"
(6:15:41 PM) ***Zenith squeaks "Nothing!"
(6:15:58 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs and looks at the floor, "I suck at magic is all..."
(6:16:46 PM) Cold_Fusion: "if I heard what I thought I heard...you've got a surprising amount of control...and a pretty perverse mind."
(6:17:35 PM) ***Spark_Plug fidgets. she is blushing really hard under her helmet.
(6:18:08 PM) GreenBankGM: Checklist finds one of the suits of Barding marked '53' is large enough to fit her bulk.
(6:18:28 PM) Checklist: "... oh dear."
(6:19:02 PM) Checklist: "How do I wear the armor and the spiked shoes at the same time?"
(6:19:06 PM) Cold_Fusion: "seriously that's kinda dangerous, and you've apparently not fried yourself."
(6:19:13 PM) ***Cold_Fusion looks over. "hmm"
(6:19:29 PM) Cold_Fusion: "well I'm still molding it...so put the armor on."
(6:19:34 PM) Cold_Fusion: "and I'll just refit it."
(6:20:13 PM) ***Spark_Plug gulps, "Well..." she blinks, "How much voltage would I need to fry something like that?"
(6:20:17 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Sorry If I had more time to work I'd make something to make it easier, but this should do for now."
(6:20:31 PM) Checklist: "Yes."
(6:20:40 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I have no clue, but you should be proud you've got the control to maintain...that...during a umm...climax."
(6:21:03 PM) ***Checklist is either deaf, or selectively ignorant.
(6:21:14 PM) ***Checklist ... or shameless.
(6:24:13 PM) ***Spark_Plug hmmms, "What if... I did it to another pony?" she rubs her chin, and used slightly more electricity?"
(6:24:23 PM) Spark_Plug: *"And
(6:24:47 PM) ***Zenith scampers off. Embarassing conversation is embarassing
(6:25:28 PM) ***Checklist slips into the XXL-sized armor.
(6:25:44 PM) Cold_Fusion: "it...depends if they like such a thing...,but I think you want to know...if you could hurt somepony yeah...you wouldn't even need to hit right there."
(6:26:59 PM) ***Spark_Plug shacks her head, "No, I mean... Like Could I hurt the Bad changlings like that."
(6:27:09 PM) Cold_Fusion: "Probably."
(6:27:27 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I don't know exactly how your spell works."
(6:27:42 PM) ***Cold_Fusion waits for Checklist to finish so she can mold the shoes to her suit.
(6:28:09 PM) Cold_Fusion: "and so help me if you suggest showing me personally I'll thwap you."
(6:28:18 PM) ***Spark_Plug shrugs, "won't know until I try it." She pulls out her Baton, "I also had an idea for this."
(6:29:07 PM) ***Checklist fiddles with the back of her armor, trying to seal it closed.
(6:29:24 PM) ***Cold_Fusion helps Check with that.
(6:30:27 PM) ***Zenith scoots back over from a short conversation with another nurse "Are you done with that conversation now?...
(6:31:16 PM) ***Spark_Plug nods, "You think You could make this thing more... Stabby n' cutty? like a big knife?"
(6:32:11 PM) Zenith: "If she did it would either break the shocking part of the baton...Or it wouldn't be able to..." She fidgets and grimaces "Cut very deep because of them..."
(6:34:07 PM) ***Spark_Plug sighs sadly then blinks, "wait, shock?." she looks at her Baton and hmms Idea forming in her head.
(6:35:27 PM) Zenith: "Hm?"
(6:35:51 PM) ***Cold_Fusion nods. "Zeni has it right....although I thought it'd be more a problem with folding mechanism."
(6:36:52 PM) ***Spark_Plug nods, "Hey Cold, We should Probably borrow Pipbucks from the security officers who are stuck here. since ours are kinda... busted."
(6:37:57 PM) Cold_Fusion: "That...is actually a good idea...except I need mine so they can contact me...,but you should definitely."
(6:38:36 PM) ***Spark_Plug nods and gets up, "Zenith, Mind showing me where they are?"
(6:39:30 PM) Zenith: "Um..." she points "Over there. They were getting um...'
(6:39:36 PM) Zenith: 'De-goo'd'."
(6:40:02 PM) ***Checklist tests the heft of her metal-shod hooves.
(6:41:00 PM) ***Checklist It's a weird feeling, but not really that obstructive.
(6:41:10 PM) ***Spark_Plug nods, "I'm sure a few of them are done by now, come on." she gets up.
(6:41:29 PM) Cold_Fusion: "How's it suit ya Check?"
(6:42:14 PM) Checklist: "I don't believe I'll be trying any grappling with them anytime soon."
(6:42:21 PM) Checklist: "... but they'll serve."
(6:42:35 PM) Cold_Fusion: "That's good...never made a set of shoes."
(6:42:44 PM) GreenBankGM: A couple of nurses are ferrying buckets away from the emergency ward
(6:44:06 PM) Checklist: "Hm."
(6:44:26 PM) ***Checklist finds a nice, clear space where she can practice her hoofstrikes.
(6:44:35 PM) ***Spark_Plug looks to Zenith to lead the way.
(6:44:38 PM) ***Zenith sighs and sits down "All this waiting...is making me more and more nervous..."
(6:46:30 PM) ***Cold_Fusion hugs Zenith. "Yeah...,but...I needed the additional rest...and prep time..."
(6:46:49 PM) Cold_Fusion: "I think we're ready now..."
(6:47:56 PM) ***Zenith hugs back, nuzzling Cold's neck a little "I know...but it doesn't make it any easier..."
(6:49:54 PM) GreenBankGM: The hall outside has been silent for some time...
(6:51:55 PM) ***Checklist is ready to push little ca-- er, get those explosives.
(6:53:44 PM) ***Cold_Fusion nuzzles back and slowly stands. "let's get going."
(6:54:59 PM) ***Spark_Plug clears her throat, "Theres armor for you too Cold, and a helmet."
(6:55:37 PM) Cold_Fusion: "You already gave me the armor while in the office."
(6:55:45 PM) Cold_Fusion: "It's...kind of in the lab though."
(6:57:03 PM) Spark_Plug: "Go get it and put it on then silly, We'll wait by the door for ya!"
(6:58:47 PM) GreenBankGM: As the mares begin to stack up on the clinic exit, the screen fades to black....
