- [18:35:50] Rabtar after following a the trail of somepony to a large walled off settlement of some kind called 'Newton' our group decided to make camp for the night after some of there members started to suffer from heat exhaustion. But due to there new robot 'friend' only Long-shot was able to get a night of sleep. Long-shot had avoided the robots wake up routeen by viewing a memory orb... It is now the...
- [18:35:50] Rabtar ...morning after
- [18:36:13] Rabtar it is now the next morning and the group is groggy from lack of sleep
- [18:36:36] Saddle_Burr proceeds to sleep past wakeup time as usual.
- [18:37:02] Project_86 equips his groggy primary operative atop his head
- [18:37:44] Ragebrew groans as he tries to cover his eyes to block out the light of the breaking dawn. "Swear to the Sisters, gonna fix that..." He rose slowly, uncovering Long-shot from his mass of fwuff, before heading off for his morning rituals of relieving himself and rebraiding his coat.
- [18:38:05] Merciful_devotion had tossed and turned through the few hours between the robots wake up and morning, having snuggled up against Long-shot.
- [18:39:45] Pocket_Lint yawns as he is moved over a robot's head... the pegasus is quite tired, but...otherwise okay. "86, delete the wake up routine, please."
- [18:40:36] Project_86 I am sorry primary operative, But you forbaied me for allowing that command from anyone telling me to make sure you always get up."
- [18:41:11] Saddle_Burr pulls his cloak tighter around himself, rolling onto his other flank.
- [18:41:24] Pocket_Lint "Belay that forbition."
- [18:42:12] Ragebrew trots back, his coat rebraided, although the lines were slightly zigzagged along his neck and flanks. He glared dagger at the battle bot, before sitting down to make a quick breakfast, letting the others try to get as much sleep as they could after last night.
- [18:42:16] -->| TGFTP ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
- [18:42:36] Project_86 I am sorryButy that still interfears witht eh other command to not allow the wakeup call to be disabled.
- [18:42:54] Long-shot wakes up with a yawn finding Mercy against her, she smiles and nuzzles into her
- [18:43:51] Pocket_Lint "Then, disable the command that is interfering."
- [18:44:05] Saddle_Burr groans and sits up, yawning. "Just turn the volume down when it happens next, bot..."
- [18:44:06] Merciful_devotion shifts and grumbles under her breath. Something about a blowtorch and sledgehammer.
- [18:44:23] Ragebrew cuts, slices, and grills up some tender grass shoots and a single piece of cactus fruit, making a rather unappealing looking gruel out of the mess. He set a tray next to everyone, chewing on his as he hunkered down on a hill, watching the town in the distance.
- [18:44:43] Project_86 holds up a hand "Ah there we go! I may be able to turn the volume down for the wake up call!"
- [18:45:28] Pocket_Lint shakes his head. "Set it to zero...and set movement rate to the same digit while the wake up call is on progress."
- [18:45:29] Saddle_Burr smiles. "Wonderful." and flops back down.
- [18:45:37] Ragebrew looks back at Project_86 "You may also want to remember that blaring loud noises in the middle of the night attracts attention. You'd be putting Primary Objective at risk if you do that while we are in the wilds."
- [18:46:13] Pocket_Lint looks at Ragebrew with a little pout. "Its primary operative."
- [18:46:28] Project_86 nods a bit "Aye! Primay operative's safity is my first consern!"
- [18:46:33] Ragebrew shrugs, and points to the plate of food next to 86. "Whatever. Eat yer breakfast."
- [18:47:01] Pocket_Lint does eat his breakfast...as manly as a stallion wearing a pink armor atop a robot could EVER be.
- [18:47:24] Merciful_devotion rubs her face and sits up. "Ugh... Kill me..,"
- [18:47:54] Saddle_Burr opens his eyes at the sound of "breakfast" and gets up, shaking the sand off his mane. While he's munching on the stew, he looks at Merciful_devotion. "Not used to outdoors living, miss?"
- [18:48:30] Long-shot rolls over to her food to eat it, she watches 86 as she eats also keeping an eye on Mercy wondering what happened to upset her
- [18:48:38] Ragebrew grumbles and slides back down off the hill. "Can't see shit from this distance. Figure they might have some folks coming out to see what that ruckus last night was though."
- [18:49:04] Merciful_devotion glares at the robot. "No... Nor to waking up to that damn robot..."
- [18:49:31] Saddle_Burr looks up at Rage. "Let me get my rifle. I can use my scope to see if anything's up with them."
- [18:49:36] Long-shot itches her mane confused "What ha..wha.. did I miss something?"
- [18:49:52] Ragebrew licks his plate clean before putting it away, pointing a hoof to Long-shot. "Well, ya could take a page outta that lass's book. She slept through the entire ordeal. How'd ya do that, by the way?"
- [18:50:47] Saddle_Burr starts checking the sights on his rifles. "Yeah, that is weird..."
- [18:51:14] Merciful_devotion grumbles more and eats her dinner.
- [18:51:31] Pocket_Lint finishes his meal and starts to make a quick inventory of his blade, his eyes examinating the flank shaker longly.
- [18:51:44] Long-shot blinks "Um.. I was.. concentrated on something.. I also may be kinda used to those bots anyway, I don't really know"
- [18:52:44] Saddle_Burr gets up and looks at Long. "Concentrated? In your sleep? Is that something you unicorns do?"
- [18:52:51] Ragebrew chuckled, and gave mercy a pat on the back."Aye, least ya didn't wake up to something nibbling on yer hooves." He gave a short laugh. "Hate it when that happens." He looked back to Long-shot, giving her an odd look before shrugging. "Well, don't sleep too soundly while we are in the wilds. Nocturnal critters love to come upon sleepers."
- [18:54:23] Long-shot grins and nuzzles Mercy "Don't worry, I had somepony watching out for me while I slept"
- [18:54:29] Pocket_Lint looks over the group, searching for something. "Speaking about nibblers, where is your gecko?"
- [18:55:08] Saddle_Burr shrugs and starts making his way up a dune to get a look at the surroundings through his scope.
- [18:55:35] Ragebrew cracks open Amethyst's carrying case, looking at the sleeping little gecko gal. "Right where she should be."
- [18:56:24] Ragebrew looked at Long-shot and chuckled. "Aye, that ya did."
- [18:57:38] Pocket_Lint idly taps his hoof over 86' hull, his wings flickering lightly. "So, folks...anything about that compound?"
- [18:58:35] Ragebrew gathers up the plates, setting them aside. "Looked pretty well guarded. Had a couple sentries on the walls."
- [18:58:58] Merciful_devotion finishes her meal, then flops with her face in the dish.
- [19:00:23] Ragebrew laughs as he gives Mercy a hoof getting out of her breakfast. "Aye, no sleeping just yet, young lady. We got fillies to free. Or at least avenge."
- [19:01:54] Saddle_Burr climbs back down from the dune. "There doesn't seem to be much activity around here. Just a few patrols on the walls. Maybe they thought it was a spritebot?"
- [19:02:13] Pocket_Lint nods and looks off to it...a bit thoughtful. "They must be lacking in numbers...probably lost quite their share during the assault at the bunker...still, I'd rather go for another approach than flat out offense."
- [19:02:44] Saddle_Burr nods. "Me too. Maybe we can talk our way in?"
- [19:02:50] Ragebrew "Figuring we pose as interested buyers to get inside. We find the head pony who handles that. Then we begin the cleansing."
- [19:03:34] Merciful_devotion grumbles, still looking exhausted.
- [19:04:12] Ragebrew "Sorry Mercy, but we're gonna need yer silver tongue and golden flank to get in. After that we'll find ya a nice spot to get some sleep, without an alarm bot close by."
- [19:04:37] Pocket_Lint "Yeah, yeah...we just find their boss and begin to purge their guts from it forward...that sounds helluva easy."
- [19:05:05] Saddle_Burr grins at Mercy. "I'll give you a Sparkle~Cola if everything goes alright."
- [19:05:21] Merciful_devotion "Alright, but if one of them hits in me, I'm gonna put my hoof so far up their ass..."
- [19:05:22] Pocket_Lint shakes his head, sighing. "Let us just go there, see what we are up against and then, only then, act from that."
- [19:05:51] Pocket_Lint "I'm still not sure how this is any of out business."
- [19:06:14] Long-shot shakes her head "Somethings not right, I think those ponies were after something, not attacked by another group of ponies cause that bunker was having certain issues..." turns to project 86 "86 can you please tell me about any files involving test: Mr. Gutsy MKill B?"
- [19:06:14] Pocket_Lint *our
- [19:06:19] Ragebrew laughed "Mercy, my dear, I doubt ya could talk to a celebate monk without them hitting on you."
- [19:07:24] Saddle_Burr turns back to Pocket_Lint. "As far as we know, they're enslaving little foals. We should at least see if there's anything we can do."
- [19:07:25] Ragebrew looks over at Pocket, a feral grin on his face. "They are the worst the waste has to offer in the way of ponykind, Pocket. No way in the nine hells am I letting them continue their trade in living fles."
- [19:07:44] Pocket_Lint shakes his head. "As far as we are concerned, raiders."
- [19:07:48] Merciful_devotion grumbles, wiping her face clean. "Then some pony's gonna be walking funny before we actually start taking names...."
- [19:08:17] Ragebrew shrugged. "Just don't get violent until we find the head of this snake. Then, ya have my blessing to go kill crazy."
- [19:08:22] Project_86 tilts his head a bit looking towards Long-shot "Hmm, Mr gutsy Mkill B. I don not know of a project like that
- [19:08:36] Saddle_Burr looks worriedly at Rage. "Rage, just remember to play it cool when we go in there. I don't want to get into any more trouble that we have to."
- [19:08:55] Ragebrew "I will be so cool, ya'd think I was a glacier."
- [19:09:15] Ragebrew "Until it's time to remove this cancerous lot from the Waste."
- [19:09:18] Pocket_Lint gestures dismissively with his hoof. "Well, I can't see much fault on doing that to raiders and other scum, but...I'm the one coming from up there, so...I'm outvoted in any way." The pegasus voices, a little displeased by that.
- [19:09:45] Long-shot thinks "Really, it was another prototype robot, what about Subject 'G' which we eliminated? Anymore info we should know about magic radiation?"
- [19:09:55] Ragebrew "Pocket, there is nothing more scummy that clapping an explosive collar on a pony, then working them to death."
- [19:10:15] Pocket_Lint "What is an explosive collar?"
- [19:10:55] Saddle_Burr blinks. "Um...it's a collar that explodes if somepony hits a button elsewhere. They're used to keep slaves in control."
- [19:11:24] Pocket_Lint blinks, trying to imagine that. "Oh...yea." He nods slowly. "That does sound pretty bad."
- [19:11:29] Ragebrew "Or it explodes if ya get too far away from the transmitter. Whoever made those collars should be burning in the underworld."
- [19:12:13] Merciful_devotion "Or a feral ghoul somewhere..."
- [19:12:54] Pocket_Lint "Aaaand, are we waiting for an invitatior or something?"
- [19:12:59] Pocket_Lint *invitation
- [19:13:10] Ragebrew "Waiting till we got a plan. And it sounds like we do."
- [19:13:52] Saddle_Burr "Yeah, let's go in, check the place out and decide what we do before they find out we're bluffin."
- [19:13:59] Pocket_Lint nods, shifting a little over Project_86. "Yeah, I can agree with that...either buyers or ponies looking for mercwork."
- [19:14:02] Ragebrew lifted himself from the ground, shaking some of the sand and grit out of his coat, before putting on his duster. Had to look snazzy for this. "Alright. Mercy, yer gonna be our way in. Lay on the char as heavily as ya can. We wanna meet the boss pony."
- [19:14:55] Merciful_devotion rubs her eyes a bit. "I'll need to use magic for that... Thank the goddesses I know illusion..."
- [19:15:25] Pocket_Lint flops off from the robot, stretching his legs a bit and cheking if everything was in order...the pegasus trots around for a little, flopping his tail.
- [19:15:26] Ragebrew "Long, could ya let her get those sunglasses ya found? I don't think she'd look as alluring with beet red eyes."
- [19:16:40] Ragebrew "At least till we're done with this ordeal."
- [19:17:03] Long-shot nods to Rage and looks back to 86 "Well if you don't know those what do you know? You have been there a long time, don't you know about any of the projects or professors there?"
- [19:18:21] Saddle_Burr yawns. "Come on, let's get this done. The sun's getting higher."
- [19:18:46] Pocket_Lint rolls his eyes at the mare. "Long, stop bothering him...he is not a toy."
- [19:19:14] Ragebrew "Aye." He spun the cylinder on the Samaritan, double checking it's four rounds. "Mercy, yer gonna be doing the talking. We're just yer body guards."
- [19:19:28] Project_86 "It has been soo long since the professors were there..>I dont really remember their names sadly If i heard one I might be able to pick up on it. And I do rember some of the projects that happened there. but there were alot of them
- [19:20:02] Ragebrew "We'll pick yer... brain? For info later. Namely about something called project 42. But that can come later, when we're not in the wilds."
- [19:20:07] Long-shot nods ignoring Pocket "Dr. Windbreaker, he was a pegasus who had an assistant, that help?"
- [19:20:42] Merciful_devotion stretches a bit. "Fine... And I expect that cola to be cold, Saddle."
- [19:21:01] Saddle_Burr chuckles. "As cold as it can be in the desert..."
- [19:21:05] Ragebrew "I'll bury it for a day or two. That should make it nice and cool."
- [19:21:56] Ragebrew "Now lets get moving. Daylights burning, and I feel today I am going to need to dig many new graves."
- [19:22:01] Long-shot "There was a funding cut for the base for Project 42 Tartarus as well..." she looks to him hopefully
- [19:22:27] Saddle_Burr nods at Ragebrew and starts walking towards the town.
- [19:22:36] Pocket_Lint facehooves, sighs and starts trotting off to the compound with the others.
- [19:23:16] Project_86 "Project 42? ....What is your clearnce! level....And Yes I do know a bit about it...As wells as the other projects it was connected to...but I need your clearence to be allowed to disclose information
- [19:24:05] Merciful_devotion nudges Long-shot. "Ask him when we're done spreading chaos and destruction..."
- [19:24:50] Saddle_Burr ponders as he walks. "...what if they're not slavers? We should have a plan for that too."
- [19:25:15] Ragebrew nods. "Agreed. We might be able to at least figure out where that MAS hub is. But that can come later." He looked to Saddle "If they aren't slaver, I will be surprised as all sin."
- [19:25:27] Long-shot prays "Level 5, Pie Squared" she bites her lip following the group
- [19:25:28] Pocket_Lint chuckles. "If that's true, we'll just invite them for tea and cookies."
- [19:25:54] Merciful_devotion "I'm still gonna buck something through a wall if I can..."
- [19:26:27] Ragebrew started to say something, but bit his lip and just laughed. "I am sure ya'll get the chance to, Mercy."
- [19:26:36] Project_86 "Clearence Is incorrect! Please reconfirem authroization request!" he says as his middle eye glows a little bit red.*
- [19:28:32] Pocket_Lint turns back to Project_86 and Long-shot. "Shut it, BOTH OF YOU!" He roars, cringing his teeth. "We are on a mission, we'll have time for that LATER." As he gazes off to Project_86 he says calmly. "Ignore her request, she is just a bit off her nails."
- [19:28:42] Ragebrew looks to 86 then Long. "Stop poking the bot. We'll figure out something about it later." He leaned over and whisper to Long-shot. "Plus, looks like he might go bonkers if ya keep asking..."
- [19:29:22] Merciful_devotion winces at Pocket's yelling.
- [19:29:31] Ragebrew "Namely, who did this leg belong to?" He pulled out the stone leg he looted back in the gecko cave. "Might have something to do with this. Maybe 42 is a project for alternative cyberware?"
- [19:29:55] Long-shot growls "I'm and O5-7 Project 86, can we discuss this later?"
- [19:30:02] Long-shot I'm an*
- [19:30:28] Ragebrew quickly put it away as they continued heading towards the town. He squinted his eyes against the morning glare, looking out for patrols.
- [19:30:35] Saddle_Burr smirks. "Or maybe it's a codename for life-sized pony statues?"
- [19:30:48] Pocket_Lint turns back front, grumbling something about ponies droving off their missions to talk to geckos or robots at the most inconvenient of times.
- [19:30:59] Ragebrew "Statues don't wear dusters, or use guns, Saddle."
- [19:31:14] Project_86 Please offer the request credintials. Count down Comencing In 20 seconds...You Must offer confirmatiion for the requested information. This is not a warning.
- [19:31:48] Ragebrew "86, do you accept hoof print scans for confirmation?" Did not like the sound of that...
- [19:31:49] Saddle_Burr blinks at Project_86 and facehooves. "Oh no.."
- [19:31:56] Project_86 !(
- [19:32:01] Project_86 "19"
- [19:32:24] Ragebrew "86, please answe the question." He quickly pulled the leg back out.
- [19:32:34] Merciful_devotion resists her urge to scream in frustration.
- [19:32:40] Saddle_Burr glares at Long-shot! "What did you do now?!"
- [19:32:46] Pocket_Lint sighs and turns back to Project_86 yet again. "86, this is primary operative, abort the the operation."
- [19:33:17] Long-shot eeps "What about M.O.M.?"
- [19:33:31] Pocket_Lint shoves Long-shot "SHUT IT."
- [19:34:11] Long-shot "We MUST Pocket!"
- [19:34:21] Project_86 shakes his head "No hoofprint is accepted...Voice confirmatiuon is required to proceed! you have 10 seconds left. Primary operative command Can not be folled at this time
- [19:34:50] Saddle_Burr groans. "Just do something already! Give it what it wants!"
- [19:35:17] Project_86 "You have 8 seconds remaining"
- [19:35:20] Pocket_Lint shakes his head. "You dug your own grave." The pegasus takes flight and flies high above the group.
- [19:35:51] Saddle_Burr gahs and trots behind a small dune. "Duck and cover!"
- [19:36:01] Long-shot whines "TPS, I am Senior Staff Shadows!"
- [19:37:03] Ragebrew just stands his ground and loads the remaining slug rounds into the Samaritan. "I knew that thing was gonna go bonkers eventually..."
- [19:37:22] Project_86 All requests incorrect! primary derictive to be folloed through now...protection of project 42. You have all been deemed in inflection and conspericy to steal information.!
- [19:38:06] Long-shot "Wait, I am not a zeebra like the spy, check!"
- [19:38:57] Ragebrew "Considering it's been 200 years since that information became nothing but war relics, figures it wouldn't matter..." He snapped his Samaritan closed. "Also, chain of command." He pointed to Long-shot. "She is the only remaining military officer for 100 miles."
- [20:08:31] Saddle_Burr ducks and covers behind the dune, waiting for the bot to explode.
- [20:11:36] Project_86 takes a stance reaiding his weapons but not moveing to attacy just yet. He holds up the flamer and his buzz saw letting it spin up and takeing out a corn cob as he watches the Criminals in front of him. One of his robotic hands placeing an afro on his head~
- [20:13:29] Merciful_devotion steps back and readies her carbines.
- [20:16:05] Pocket_Lint flies above, wondering why the hell they aren't burning and shooting eachother yet...he fights the instinct to swoop down, being flamed off thought him well...the pegasus keeps airborne, eyeing the "fight" from above...he prepares his shiv, in any case.
- [20:17:18] Ragebrew stares at the robot for a long moment, the Samaritan leveled at it. "Please cease hostilities. We stumbled upon information about project 42 in the wastes. If yer supposed to guard it, we will not attempt to learn more about it. Provided ya put yer weapon down. Hell, all we know about it is from some papers and a note I found in my duster. Can we have this not end in bloodshed and motor oil?"
- [20:18:22] Rabtar a small gust of wind blows a single tumbleweed between the crazed robot and the ponies
- [20:20:31] Long-shot "P86, you take orders from superiors even though primary directives? I am your superior in rank being the last one alive to report. I am not going to attack you, I am not the enemy"
- [20:21:49] Project_86 "Incorrect! My orders come from the highest of commands. Your credintials are incorrect!. You are the enemy. You failed the check mutiple times."
- [20:22:09] Ragebrew "Yet ya have yet to attack us. Reasoning?"
- [20:23:10] Project_86 "Calculating attact patterns for optimal destruction of enemys!"
- [20:23:23] Saddle_Burr blinks, opening his eyes as he heard no explosion. He grabs his Varmint Rifle and lays it on the ground, aiming at Project_86
- [20:23:25] Long-shot "I merely asked a question out of pure curiosity, not trying to purge or get information, if I am not able to access it tell me you don't know, don't attack me for it, and if what you say is true tell me who is currently alive ranking above me in the vicinity!"
- [20:24:27] Ragebrew "There are no optimal patterns. Yer outnumbered, out flanked. To engage in hostile actions would result in permanent shutdown. After 200 years underground, ya wanna end yer wait because we're a bunch of stupid wastelanders looking for a haul?"
- [20:24:41] Merciful_devotion keeps her aim, honestly wanting nothing more than to shoot the mechanical demon who woke her up so early.
- [20:27:16] Project_86 Nonsence!, It does not matter if they still exist! The directive was Inset and set to last untill decomissioning. And you do not have the authority to do that!" He yells out Before tossing the corn cob at Pocket_Lint "Gental ponies! Behold!" he yells out at the top of his speakers.
- [20:27:49] Ragebrew "Directives can not be upheld if yer shutdown."
- [20:28:02] Pocket_Lint dodges it, but comes at a halt, hearing out Project_86.
- [20:28:08] Long-shot "Tell me, when officers die, others take their place, it has been like that for forever! I am the leader now!"
- [20:28:41] Long-shot "It is a directive to not attack allies or superiors!"

- [20:33:33] Rabtar despite it only being corn it sinks into Pocket_Lints chest!
- [20:33:38] Project_86 laughs minicaly throwing his arms in the air! "Muhahaah Its not diffrent at all is it Primary operative!"
- [20:35:02] Ragebrew "Right then. I am gonna rip yer memory banks out and turn 'em into an ash tray."
- [20:35:08] Long-shot "Your corrupt! Cease attack immediately, you still have yet to confirm my rank!"
- [20:36:50] Saddle_Burr takes a shot at the bot!
- [20:37:02] Ragebrew "Doesn't matter Long. Looks like purging starts early today."
- [20:37:24] Project_86 "Lies! I'm not the one trying to steal equestria's secreats to the evil zebra skum!"
- [20:37:38] Pocket_Lint grunts and flails a bit...stupid thing....he looks over at project, perhaps...
- [20:38:58] Long-shot yells "Do I look like a zeebra to you! Did I attack you when we found you!?"
- [20:39:13] Rabtar Saddle_Burr's shot misses by a wide margin
- [20:41:22] Merciful_devotion aims and fires at the crazed robot's head.

- [20:45:41] Rabtar the twin rounds slam into one of the robots eye stocks, blowing it clean off
- [20:48:27] Pocket_Lint picks his rifle and shoots at the moronic robot from above, it was good as scraps now.
- [20:49:32] Rabtar both of Pocket's shots hit the ground harmlessly
- [20:50:38] Ragebrew "By the way!" He pointed to Pocket "I killed yer primary operative a week ago! I blew her head clean off! He just took her armor, ya dim witted bucket of bolts!" He lined up the Samaritan, and quickly fired a pair of rounds at the machine.
- [20:53:12] Long-shot went pale and stood there confused at what exactly to do, she looked to 86 and waited for something particular "Please don't..." she begged
- [20:54:37] Rabtar both rounds from the large pistol slam into the crazed robot, punching a hole in it's hull and blowing the rest of the stock off of the eye from before
- [20:56:58] Ragebrew "YER HARD DRIVE SHALL BE AN ASH TRAY!" His ears were ringing after that pair of shots....
- [21:00:55] Project_86 yells out loudly in a rage "FOOLS YOU WILL ALL BE EXTERMINATED!" He takes aim with a Magical energy riftly, takeing aim at Pocket_Lint and fireing 4 shots.
- [21:01:20] Rabtar *3
- [21:08:55] Rabtar Pocket_Lint drops from the sky as two of the bolts hit him, vaporizing two of his legs...
- [21:09:26] Pocket_Lint hardlands and stays grounded...
- [21:11:23] Merciful_devotion growls and fires two more shots.
- [21:18:05] |<-- TGFTP has left irc.canternet.org (Quit: Page closed)
- [21:20:45] Rabtar Mercy once again hits the robot, doing a large amount of damage. It isn't quite down yet but close.
- [21:23:11] Ragebrew watches as Pocket fell from the sky, eyes going wide as he saw the pegasus's legs turn to glowing dust. The litany of profanity that spewed through the grip of the Samaritan could make even the most hardened of raiders blush. BLAM BLAM, two more for the robot.
- [21:24:23] Rabtar both of the large rounds miss the robot by mere inches
- [21:30:11] Long-shot looks down sad at the scene of everything, she sighs and teleports getting a more comfortable distance and pulls out her rifle readying herself
- [21:31:43] Saddle_Burr takes another well-aimed shot at the bot.
- [21:34:42] Project_86 takes the fire from the team before turning to rage bre, the own that announced that he had killed his primary operative, He rushes for the pony his letting off a blast from his flamer before grabing at the pony's neck and pulling him in front of his body as a shield
- [21:42:35] Rabtar Ragebrew is set alight and chockes him, lifting him up and using him as a shield
- [21:44:30] Merciful_devotion fires off a pair of rounds from each carbine, trying to aim around Rage.
- [21:48:17] Rabtar twin rounds strike the robot, bouncing harmlessly off of his armor plating

- [21:50:13] Ragebrew 0x01ACTION screams, not in pain, but anger, as he is lit ablaze, only to have it silenced a moment later as he had a mechanical gripper wrap around his throat and houst him from the ground. Whatever he had to say was reduced to a choked gurgle, before out from the pocket of his duster came a single shiny steel apple. With everything going fuzzy around the edges, he lifted it to his mouth and pulled the pin, letting it drop to the ground
- [21:59:41] Rabtar the robot explodes with a fiery explosion, if it had anything valuable it was destroyed, Ragebrew is sent flying by the blast, landing face first and bloody in the dirt, hurt but alive
- [22:00:17] Ragebrew is a sailing fireball for a brief moment before crashing into the dirt and franticly rolling around, screaming "FIND POCKET! NOW!"
- [22:01:00] Saddle_Burr gasps, looking up from his rifle sights! Getting up, he starts frantically looking for Pocket Lint!
- [22:01:16] Merciful_devotion winces, shards of hot metal striking her hide. "Yeouch!!"
- [22:01:21] Saddle_Burr "Mercy and Long! Take care of Rage!"
- [22:01:36] Pocket_Lint blurrburbs...
- [22:03:03] Long-shot listens and hurries over following Saddle not knowing exactly what to do
- [22:03:27] Ragebrew lifts himself off the ground, his hair already regrowing where it had been burnt off. Blood was pouring profusely from under his coat, but he only turned and charged after where he think he saw Pocket land. "NO! I WILL LIVE! HE WILL NOT! FIND HIM NOW!"
- [22:03:57] Saddle_Burr runs toward the smoking crater that used to be Long!
- [22:04:01] Saddle_Burr *Pocket
- [22:04:17] Pocket_Lint doesn't feel...whole.
- [22:04:38] Merciful_devotion quickly pulls out her canteen and dumps it on Rage to keep him from smoldering as he ran by, then tried keeping up with him.
- [22:04:55] Ragebrew looks at Pocket, and crams a pair of healing potions down the poor pegasus's throat. "No dying! Not today!"
- [22:05:20] Saddle_Burr gets two more potions from his bandoleer! "Here, take these too!"
- [22:05:26] Pocket_Lint finds the irony rather palpable...and yet...he doesn't complain, he just chugs it.
- [22:06:01] Ragebrew "Hold 'em! I got plenty!" He began to bandage the... seared stumps that where once Pocket's legs. "Sisters no... No no no no no..."
- [22:06:47] Long-shot stares in shock, watching ready to help in any way she can.
- [22:06:54] Saddle_Burr digs through his bags to see if he had something that could help. "Is there anything I can do, Rage?"
- [22:07:18] Ragebrew "The blood of a hydra!"
- [22:07:37] Saddle_Burr "What?"
- [22:07:52] Merciful_devotion "I-I don't think we have that..."
- [22:07:53] Ragebrew "If ya by any freak chance got a few drops of that lying around, it'd be a blessing from the Sisters... Otherwise... Nothing I can do now."
- [22:08:21] Saddle_Burr "Damn, where are we gonna find a hydra right now?"
- [22:08:59] Long-shot "I thought we had some earlier from the buggy wreck!" checks her bags frantically
- [22:09:05] Merciful_devotion "More important, how would we /kill/ one?"
- [22:09:20] Ragebrew lifted the pegasus onto his back, looking to the others. "Where is beyond me. But we might be able to find some hydra chem, somewhere. Obviously rare as all sin, but unless we find some cyberware, Pocket's gonna be flying everywhere for a while..."
- [22:09:42] Rabtar the corn cob lodged in Pocket's chest falls out as the wound is healed by the magic, but his missing limbs will need more than a healing potion
- [22:09:52] Saddle_Burr stops suddenly. "We could ask those slavers!"
- [22:10:26] Ragebrew gulps down a couple potions himself, grimacing. "Odds are slim to none, but better than what we have now..."
- [22:11:05] Merciful_devotion "I got my tongue. We can at least get enough stuff from them to at least /try: and help."
- [22:11:37] Saddle_Burr "Or...or, we could ask the dragon!"
- [22:12:21] Ragebrew "She told us not to disturb her for a few days. I think it's wise to obey that command."
- [22:12:28] Long-shot "It is quite far, me and Rough would have a better chance with the slavers"
- [22:13:10] Saddle_Burr "Alright! Let's get moving!"
- [22:13:52] Long-shot Mercy*
- [22:13:56] Ragebrew "I am not letting two pretty young mares go into a slaver den without something scary to watch over them." Bits of sharpnel fell out of his skin as the potions worked through him. "Someone carry some of his stuff. I can't carry him plus his gear."
- [22:14:09] Saddle_Burr "I'll take them."
- [22:14:13] Merciful_devotion nods. "Lets be quick about this, we can't risk anything."
- [22:14:46] Ragebrew "Aye. He won't bleed out any time soon, but... Yeah, lets move."
- [22:15:26] <--| Heartshine_PnP has left #piss_poor_group
- [22:18:51] Rabtar the group rushes toward 'Newton' hoping that they could help Pocket
- [22:19:47] Ragebrew pauses from time to time to wrap himself in even more bandages. Not only was he FWUFFY, without time to rebraid his coat, but he was also kinda mummified...
- [22:20:38] Saddle_Burr "Alright, stay alert when we get there. They might just try to kill us and take our stuff."
- [22:20:53] Rabtar as the group come up to the gate a pony standing watch from the wall calls out "What's your business hear!"
- [22:21:06] Ragebrew nudges Mercy. "Yer up darlin'"
- [22:21:17] Saddle_Burr slows down, nodding at Mercy encouragingly
- [22:22:55] Merciful_devotion saunters up, her horn glowing softly. "Hello! We need serious help! A friend if ours is really hurt!"
- [22:29:41] Rabtar the gate opens with a loud creak, a lone guard poking her head out taking one look at the burned and bloody group "Holy shit! Get in hear!" she pushes the gate open and turns, calling out "Tell the doc he has incoming! Looks bad too!" she points at the three story building, a few ponies running about, most just watching...
- [22:30:10] Rabtar the guard starts to trot towards the building "Follow me!"
- [22:30:38] Merciful_devotion waves the group in, praying that they could help.
- [22:30:43] Saddle_Burr thanks the guard quickly, then follows her, glancing around as he gallops.
- [22:30:45] Ragebrew quickly follows after the mare, glad for once someone didn't break out laughing at the first sight of him.
- [22:31:08] Long-shot trots behind them, rifle on her back, she keeps an eye out
- [22:32:17] Ragebrew does a quick look around at the various ponies around them, keeping an eye out for cutie marks as they husted to the doctor.
- [22:33:00] Rabtar Newton looks as if it was built around an old shopping center, a pair of small strip malls to either side of a small office building that was the main building. An amount of small tin shacks scattered about. Ponies of every color wander about trading and talking, even a few griffins scattered about. This is no slaver fort, it's a 'thriving' wasteland community
- [22:33:44] Ragebrew "Well, I am offically surprised as all sin now..."
- [22:34:06] Saddle_Burr feels about as relieved as he can in the situation, and keeps on running. "Yeah...don't waste your breath now...gotta run!"
- [22:34:37] Merciful_devotion giggles a bit at Rage's comment. "Hey, could've been stranger."
- [22:35:08] Ragebrew chuckled as best he could. "Come on... Ya can't be winded now. We ran for hours last night..." He checked to make sure Pocket hadn't ended up on the ground from time to time.
- [22:37:36] Long-shot eyes went wide feeling a bit.. claustrophobic from the mass of ponies, she followed watching out for ponies
- [22:39:47] Merciful_devotion grins at all the ponies, feeling almost at home here.
- [22:40:22] Long-shot stays close to Mercy head low hiding behind her some
- [22:43:19] Rabtar it looks as if over hundred ponies live here! But that isn't important right now, only the doctor is. They follow the guard into the old office building, it seems to have been converted into a shop of some kind, but they don't get a god look as they are running
- [22:43:45] Ragebrew just ignores the mass of ponies, ever so often yelling "Outta the way! Freshly wounded, coming through!"
- [22:44:21] Merciful_devotion occasionally looks back worriedly at Pocket.
- [22:45:33] Long-shot is definitely reminded of home underground, lotsa ponies in a hallway, sticks close to the group
- [22:47:47] Rabtar ponies jump out of there way seeing the emergency. They shortly reach the doctors office. It looks to have been a pre-war clinic of some kind. A white stallion with a dark green main is waiting for them "Bout time! I got a call about some emergency...." and he sees Pocket "Get him on the table! NURSE! Prep for surgery! Looks like energy weapon wounds!" the office explodes into activity a...
- [22:47:47] Rabtar ...pair of mares rushing out with all kinds of medical implements "Now get out unless you're dieing too" shooing the others out as he gets to work...
- [22:49:18] Saddle_Burr doesn't move for a moment. "Is he gonna be alright?!"
- [22:49:52] Long-shot shoos out quickly taking a seat by the door
- [22:49:54] Rabtar "He mite if you all GET OUT!" and he slams the door
- [22:50:09] Ragebrew carries Pocket to the table, setting him down. "Did the best I could with potions and bandages... But I ain't a doctor..." He turned and stepped back. "Don't care the price, don't care what tasks ya tell us to do. If ya can get him his legs again, I'll drag myself through another pool of taint for ya." He turned and stepped outside.
- [22:50:21] Saddle_Burr backs off a little as the door slams shut in from of him!
- [22:50:44] Merciful_devotion steps outside, keeping the clearly nervous Long-shot close by.
- [22:51:13] Ragebrew promptly sat down infront of the clinic, and began to rebraid his hair, all the scorched bits long since been repaired. "Now we wait, kids. Now we wait."
- [22:51:31] Long-shot keeps her eyes close and head near the floor trying to hold still
- [22:51:38] Rabtar the guard who led you up hear turns panting a little "What the hell happened? Was it you guys who caused that ruckus we heard?"
- [22:53:00] Ragebrew looked up and nodded. "Aye. We ran afoul a mental pre war combat bot. Did a number on our friend."
- [22:53:18] Saddle_Burr lets out a sigh, turning around only to see Long-shot cowering on the floor. "It was this little dash-head who caused it all! We told you to stop bugging the bot, Long!"
- [22:53:21] Merciful_devotion nods at the guard. "Robot went nuts. Fluffy blew it up." She rubs a sore, gently bleeding spot where shrapnel had dug into her pelt.
- [22:55:03] Ragebrew looked at Saddle, and snorted. "Don't be blaming her for something that woulda happened eventually."
- [22:55:08] Long-shot shakes looking down as a tear rolled from her cheek "I-I'm so sorry.. I didn't know..." she mutters
- [22:55:19] Ragebrew "I was gonna ask about P-42 myself, she just beat me to it."
- [22:55:37] Ragebrew "At least she had some chance of getting the info out of it. I woulda been piss outta luck."
- [22:56:00] Merciful_devotion nuzzles Long. "Shh... It wasn't all your fault..." She hums softly, trying to calm the other mare down.
- [22:56:57] Saddle_Burr snorts, stomping around in the waiting room. "What were those names you kept telling it? Commander Shadows? Pie squared? What was that all about?"
- [22:57:09] Long-shot cries curling on the floor "N-no.. you should stay away before I kill you too.." shakes
- [22:57:13] Rabtar she whistles "A bot did all that? Must of been some bot."
- [22:58:22] Ragebrew chuckled, putting a fwuffy hoof on Long's shoulder. "Darlin', I'm more a threat to myself than ya could ever be. At least by hanging around ya, I know I got someone covering my plot. Even if ya like to take pot shots at it." He gave a hearty laugh, before wincing and coughing a few times. A small bit of blood came out of his mouth, along with a sliver of metal. "Oh... Ow..."
- [22:59:27] Saddle_Burr nickers frustratedly. "I need to be alone for a moment..." he mutters and trots out of the room.
- [22:59:36] Ragebrew "Aye. Was one of those war bots ya see on posters from time to fime. We found it in a bunker, it seemed peaceful. Then we asked the wrong question, and it flipped out."
- [23:00:03] Ragebrew looked to Saddle and nodded. "If ya feel the need. Sure this is gonna take a while."
- [23:00:31] Merciful_devotion continues to nuzzle and comfort the mare. "You couldn't have meant for that to happen... None of us could have seen it coming anyways..."
- [23:00:33] Long-shot nods but stays curled on the ground "P-Pie squared was the terminal password for the base we went into..."
- [23:00:43] |<-- Pocket_Lint has left irc.canternet.org (Connection closed)
- [23:01:09] Rabtar "Crazy pre-war tech. We'll I'll leave you bee. Merchants are down stairs." and she trots off, but call over her shoulder "Oh and welcome to Newton" and disappears
- [23:01:22] Ragebrew nodded. "Seems it wasn't the right one for that bot, sadly. Aye, least ya had a reason to try. I was just gonna flat out ask it "Hey, ya know anything bout P-42?" which woulda resulted in the same damn thing."
- [23:01:28] -->| Ignis ([email protected]) has joined #piss_poor_group
- [23:02:31] Saddle_Burr trots out of the building and around the corner, kicking a can on the way and sitting down with a frustrated sigh.
- [23:02:36] Ragebrew "And even if Pocket lost some legs... We can find a way to get 'em back. Just glad neither of ya got too hurt from the fight. Oh, Mercy, lemme tend those wounds. Ignored 'em cause, well, they are petty."
- [23:03:45] Merciful_devotion winces a bit as she moves. "Sure hurt like hell though... Shouldn't complain..."
- [23:03:46] Long-shot stays on the ground not really wanting to move
- [23:04:45] Ragebrew grins and begins the slow process of plucking out all the bits of shrapnel and covering them seeping wounds in mostly clean linen. "Sorry ya got caught in the blast... But I didn't want that bastard to take shots at anyone else."
- [23:05:18] Ragebrew has to use his teeth for this unpleasant task. "I need some tweezers..." He says, spitting out the last bit and wiping the blood from his teeth.
- [23:05:48] Merciful_devotion "'S okay..." She rubs her head a bit.
- [23:06:46] Ragebrew leans back against a wall, removing his duster so he could get to the coat beneath it. "Still. I keep forgetting I'm not the only one I can hurt when I go mental. Kinda hard to think straight when yer on fire..."

- [23:09:42] Ragebrew finishes off the last braid, tying it off with a piece of string before lifting himself up. "Pocket is gonna be a while. We'd best make the most of our time on our plots. Mercy, if ya'd do the me the honor of joining me in a gallop back to the buggy. Long, want ya to get a look at what merchants have to offer for when we get back. Gonna take a while, but I figure Pocket will take longer..."
- [23:10:43] Ragebrew "Plus, I am fucking parched... Wonder if there are any good puddles I could get a drink from..."
- [23:10:48] Long-shot nods slowly and gets up wiping her tears away
- [23:12:43] Ragebrew redons his duster, brushing off some of the sharpnel that got stuck in it. "This poor things shot to hell..." He looked at Long-shot and gave her a hug. "I ain't blaming ya for what happened. It woulda happened on way or another. Sometimes ya poke yer nose in the wrong hole, and ya get bit for it."

- [23:15:08] Long-shot puts on her glasses to hide her eyes, she felt a bit better
- [23:16:39] Ragebrew grinned and patted her lightly. "There ya go missy." He looked over the stock quickly, only looking for one particular thing before heading outside. He looked over at Saddle, and simply said "Woulda happened one way or another, my friend. At least we all lived to tell the tale, even if one of us is no longer whole. I am heading off to fetch the buggy."

- [23:22:45] Ragebrew clicks his tongue and turns back around, pointing to the merchant. "Aye, last couple days, did a pair o' ponies show up here with a boatload of stuff to hawk?"
- [23:25:20] Global [Network Notice] Colgate - There is a faulty router on the route between Luna and Derpy causing ~25% packet loss and dropping out completely for 30+ seconds at a time.
- [23:26:24] Rabtar the merchant responds with a shrug "Had somepony sell of a bit of raider gear last night but other than nothing out of the norm"
- [23:27:14] Ragebrew "Any pony ya happen to know? Cause that raider gear came from a pretty bloody fight between raiders and slavers, if the corpses were any clue."
- [23:28:05] Ragebrew "And I'd like to find the scum suckers who butchered a band of fillies, and most likely took any survivors to go live in irons."
- [23:28:14] Rabtar "Na. We get a fair bit o trade here. We are in the middle of the desert sittin on the old roads"
- [23:28:55] Ragebrew nodded. "Sorry to grill ya, my friend, but did ya get a good look at 'em? Coat and mane color, maybe their mark?"
- [23:29:48] Ragebrew "Cause I got a feeling that was a survivor from the slavers who wiped out the fillies. Lot of corpses, but someone had to survive that fight."
- [23:31:58] Rabtar "Was an odd looking... ghoul I think. Her skin was all rubber though. Kinda pretty come to think of it..." and he shakes his head to clear out the thought "Damn I need to get laid"
- [23:32:47] Merciful_devotion giggles softly. "I could help with that, if you give us a bit of a discount~"
- [23:33:55] Rabtar he goes red at the sight of the pretty mare "Ummmmm......."
- [23:33:55] Ragebrew looked over at Mercy and just arched an eyebrow before chuckling. "A ghoul ya say? With rubbery skin? Well, better than nothing." He tipped his hat to the merchant. "Thank ya kindly, my good buck..." He looked over at Mercy and grinned. "And I hope ya have a pleasant evening."
- [23:39:02] Rabtar the stallion stumbles over his words for a few moments then takes a deep breath and blurts out "Wouldyouliketohavelunchwithme!" before covering his face in embarrassment "Can't believe I just did that"
- [23:39:55] Merciful_devotion winks at the stallion behind the counter, giggling. "If you can give us a deal on what my friends here want, sure~"
- [23:43:42] Ragebrew chuckles, looking at the stallion go beet red. "Aye, what I want is some pretty hefty hardware, so I think I'll skip out on the discount idea."

- [23:48:37] Rabtar he cringes and shys away from Rage "Y-yes!" and leads her out the door and towards one of the old strip malls
- [23:49:45] Ragebrew laughs. "Smart lad, glad we could come to an understanding." He stepped outside, looking to the cloud covered sky with a slight frown. "It just keeps adding up, doesn't it?" He coughed a few more times, spitting out another, and hopefully the final, bit of shrapnel that had been expelled by the healing potions.
- [23:49:49] Merciful_devotion walks after him, suppressing a yawn from her poor night's sleep as the adrenaline wears off.
- [23:51:10] Long-shot nods to Rage
- [23:52:05] Ragebrew poked the bloody piece of metal a few times. "First, we need to get back to Three. I don't want to pay for her room and board. Then, we need to find a way to get Pocket some new legs. Vengance can wait, I want everyone to be whole when we find this slaver nest."
