  2. [2015-12-16 19:18:39] <Falconis> Logging start
  3. [2015-12-16 19:18:41] <Falconis> Session 1
  4. [2015-12-16 19:18:52] <Falconis> It’s a rainy afternoon in New Castelia. The pitter patter of falling drops accompanies you as you’re chauffeured to the meeting point, a penthouse suite on the top floor of the Cameron building. Your driver, a silent young woman with piercing blue eyes, guides the luxurious SUV into the underground car park and escorts you to the elevator.
  5. [2015-12-16 19:18:52] <Falconis> The elevator rides up the side of the building, glass walls giving you an unrivalled view of the city as you rise. Grey clouds roil overhead, making the city seem darker than it would normally be at this time of day but you can still make out pedestrians making hurried movements and bright yellow cabs trying to get fares.
  6. [2015-12-16 19:18:52] <Falconis> The elevator stops at the 80th floor and you get out and are promptly lead to another elevator on the inside. The young woman swipes a keycard at the door and you’re taken up to the top floor. Number 100. The penthouse.
  7. [2015-12-16 19:20:42] <Falconis> With a soft *ding* the doors open and you're giving your first view of the place you'll probably be seeing quite often from now on. Floors of lacquered darkwood stretch out before you into a wide gathering area with seating. A grand piano sits on a dias nearby and a nearby cabinet seems to be meant for other instruments as well
  8. [2015-12-16 19:21:33] <Falconis> Logs crackle and pop in a real fireplace and above it, a large screen hangs on the wall.
  9. [2015-12-16 19:22:24] <Falconis> Hallways stretch out leading to other places you'll discover later but for now, your escort leads you to the waiting area, where you'll meet with the others like you. Called to serve.
  10. [2015-12-16 19:25:40] <Falconis> In time, you all gather and the meeting begins in earnest. The young woman turns on the screen and a man wearing fine suit appears to face you. He is seated in a dark room, the light of a fire serving just enough for you to make out the fine materials surrounding him, the gold rings on his fingers and the lit cigar in his hands. His features remain shrouded in darkness.
  11. [2015-12-16 19:26:47] <Falconis> He smiles, and begins speaking. "Good afternoon, candidates. Thank you all for joining me this evening. I would go through the whole song and dance number, but I'm sure you've all heard it before."
  12. [2015-12-16 19:27:23] <Falconis> "Instead, why don't you all introduce yourselves. You'll be working together for a long time if all goes well, after all"
  13. [2015-12-16 19:27:27] <Falconis> "Please"
  14. [2015-12-16 19:27:30] <Falconis> >_
  15. [2015-12-16 19:29:54] <VictorR> Victor nods in acknowledgement of the statement, even if some corner of his mind finds cause to disagree. He fixes the collar of his coat, and glances at the other assembled individuals.
  16. [2015-12-16 19:30:00] <VictorR> "My name is Victor."
  17. [2015-12-16 19:30:21] <VictorR> "...for the moment, it is all the name I feel obligated to share."
  18. [2015-12-16 19:31:28] <RavenNLN> "You may call me Raven. That is fine. You may also not call me by anything. That is fine too. I will also not call you by anything."
  19. [2015-12-16 19:33:29] <Sigurd> Sigurd raises an eyebrow at the womans words "My name is Sigurd Sempiternus, it is a pleasure to meet you all"
  20. [2015-12-16 19:34:31] <Sandoval> Alex eyes the others carefully before speaking. "Call me Alex. I look forward to our work together."
  21. [2015-12-16 19:35:24] <Denholm> "Name's Denholm McShain. That's just about all I have left now." Danny leans on his cane and looks around the room.
  22. [2015-12-16 19:35:59] * Sigurd frowns at the man, has he seen him before?
  23. [2015-12-16 19:37:56] -->| Albrecht (~biggest@Rizon-25D6557B.res.bhn.net) has joined #crimeworldIC
  24. [2015-12-16 19:39:45] <Falconis> The man's smile widens and his cigar briefly flares up as he draws from it, illuminating parts of a chiseled face and a wide jawline. " Excellent. I can see that you'll work together nicely."
  25. [2015-12-16 19:40:45] <Falconis> "Now, as for why we're all here. Some of you have worked it all out already, i'm sure. But for those of you with a proper appreciation for the dramatic like myself, I'll do my best delivery"
  26. [2015-12-16 19:40:53] <Falconis> "Ice, if you would"
  27. [2015-12-16 19:40:56] * Albrecht blinks
  28. [2015-12-16 19:43:40] <Falconis> At his words the young woman, Ice?, turns on a projector. A birds eye view of New Castelia is displayed on a white screen that slides smoothly down from the ceiling for this purpose. Names of important landmarks, people and events are displayed in turn.
  29. [2015-12-16 19:45:23] <VictorR> Victor sniffs quietly in distaste at the rather primitive audio-visual technology.
  30. [2015-12-16 19:46:53] <Falconis> "This world is trash, it's inhabitants are garbage. The current status quo is stale and broken. Humanity still suckles upon the rotting corpse of civilization and cares not that its rancid milk does nothing but breed suffering and waste."
  31. [2015-12-16 19:47:33] <Falconis> The tip of his cigar glows once more briefly and his smirk cuts through the shadow
  32. [2015-12-16 19:48:38] <Falconis> "Unlike my peers. I am not satisfied to simply carve out an island of prosperity in this otherwise hateful existence."
  33. [2015-12-16 19:48:49] <Falconis> "The world will be shaken and eyes opened."
  34. [2015-12-16 19:50:08] <Falconis> "But you... perhaps don't have to care about that. What you need to know is that i will pay handsomely for services rendered. And that service, in your case, is chaos"
  35. [2015-12-16 19:51:16] <Falconis> "The Teams of recent years serve a good example for what i wish you to be and the jobs you will have to undertake. What you do beyond that is none of my concern."
  36. [2015-12-16 19:51:49] <Falconis> "You will be criminals, gangsters, crime lords and drug barons"
  37. [2015-12-16 19:52:07] <Falconis> "Well... I won't say any more on that"
  38. [2015-12-16 19:52:21] <Falconis> He draws on the cigar once again
  39. [2015-12-16 19:53:15] <Falconis> "As a show of good faith, I've created an account for you with the Underworld Bank. You'll find 50,000 in there for starting funds."
  40. [2015-12-16 19:53:29] <Falconis> "If you've need to access it, Ice will see to your needs"
  41. [2015-12-16 19:53:38] <Falconis> "Now. Any questions?"
  42. [2015-12-16 19:53:40] <Falconis> >_
  43. [2015-12-16 19:55:21] <Sandoval> "I have none, but perhaps the others will need it put more bluntly. You want us to create a new Team, correct?"
  44. [2015-12-16 19:55:41] <Falconis> He nods "Thats right"
  45. [2015-12-16 19:56:02] <Falconis> "You'll probably need a fancy name for yourselves. Everyone else does"
  46. [2015-12-16 19:57:12] <Sandoval> "Then I suppose that's our first order of business. Causing nameless chaos wouldn't accomplish much."
  47. [2015-12-16 19:57:36] * Albrecht blinks a bit and looks at Sandoval
  48. [2015-12-16 19:57:42] <Sandoval> Alex folds their arms, glancing around at the others in the room. "Any suggestions?"
  49. [2015-12-16 19:57:47] <RavenNLN> "Chaos is chaos, name or no."
  50. [2015-12-16 20:00:09] <Sandoval> "Maybe to you. But if we want to be anything more than small-time criminals cooped in a penthouse, we'll need a banner. Something for people to recognize and fall behind."
  51. [2015-12-16 20:01:46] <VictorR> "Perhaps a symbol of our goal."
  52. [2015-12-16 20:02:22] <VictorR> "A token representing the new world that will arise from our chaos, and the path we embark upon."
  53. [2015-12-16 20:02:29] <VictorR> "'One Direction', perhaps?"
  54. [2015-12-16 20:06:38] <RavenNLN> "Hmph. If we are flying the banner of chaos, then why are we not Team Chaos?" She pauses. "That is not already taken, right?"
  55. [2015-12-16 20:06:57] <Denholm> "How about 'Coalition for Regimental Upheaval'?"
  56. [2015-12-16 20:07:15] <VictorR> "Announcing ourselves as 'Team' anything feels...childish."
  57. [2015-12-16 20:07:26] <VictorR> "Like children playing at an adult's game."
  58. [2015-12-16 20:09:11] <Sandoval> "I agree. And if our goal is to work towards a new world, we should show that in our name. No attachments to 'teams" themselves."
  59. [2015-12-16 20:12:01] <VictorR> "Perhaps a simple approach: Union."
  60. [2015-12-16 20:15:20] * Albrecht tilts his head and clears his throat, but says nothing
  61. [2015-12-16 20:15:56] <Albrecht> “We can just be a team, or whatever. Childish or not, it’s the norm.” He says after a moment.
  62. [2015-12-16 20:16:29] <Albrecht> “It’s not this hard. Whatever name we get we’re making a name for ourselves, we can build reputation through our dealings."
  63. [2015-12-16 20:18:11] <VictorR> "It is not hard at all. But to accept whatever is standard as the ideal simply because it is standard, is to stagnate and drown in foolish ideals."
  64. [2015-12-16 20:18:52] <VictorR> "I, however, am not opposed to 'Chaos' though it makes sound like some agency of supervillains."
  65. [2015-12-16 20:19:56] <Falconis> "Yes, well. I'm sure you'll figure it out in time"
  66. [2015-12-16 20:20:28] <Falconis> "For now though, you'll have to forgive me for haste, as a time sensitive matter has emerged"
  67. [2015-12-16 20:20:38] <Falconis> "One I believe you can.. assist with"
  68. [2015-12-16 20:20:51] <Falconis> "Ice"
  69. [2015-12-16 20:21:14] |<-- Albrecht has left irc.rizon.net (Quit: Albrecht)
  70. [2015-12-16 20:21:42] <Falconis> At his words, the screen changes to show a map of the city, two blinking red dots stand out against it's surface. One is stationary, the other slowly moving"
  71. [2015-12-16 20:23:19] <Falconis> "There are two items leaving the city that i must have in my possession."
  72. [2015-12-16 20:24:03] <Falconis> "The first, is by the warf, presumably in a shipping container or somesuch. It will be moved out of the city by 08:00 tonight."
  73. [2015-12-16 20:25:15] <Falconis> "The second is already en route via truck heading eastward on the main roads. It should hit the Lincon tunnel in an hour or so, and beyond that retrieval will be... difficult"
  74. [2015-12-16 20:25:34] <Falconis> "Bring them to me."
  75. [2015-12-16 20:26:03] <Falconis> "Of course, you will be compensated for your efforts richly."
  76. [2015-12-16 20:26:23] <Falconis> "One more thing. There is no room for lethal force in this"
  77. [2015-12-16 20:26:43] <Falconis> "A few broken bones are fine, even a hospital visit i don't care about. But no one dies"
  78. [2015-12-16 20:27:01] <Falconis> >_
  79. [2015-12-16 20:28:08] <Sandoval> "Consider it done. What sort of resistance can we expect?"
  80. [2015-12-16 20:28:10] <VictorR> "These terms sound acceptable. It would be...unwise for us to draw a reputation for lethality at such a stage."
  81. [2015-12-16 20:29:41] <Falconis> The shuffling of papers comes across the speakers before he answers
  82. [2015-12-16 20:30:37] <Falconis> "Agents from Nightshade Security should be monitoring both packages, though as to their actual numbers I couldn't tell you. Ice can handle that maybe"
  83. [2015-12-16 20:31:08] <Falconis> "I don't expect more than a token force however. These items are not that valuable to most people, but they are to me"
  84. [2015-12-16 20:31:41] <Falconis> "Oh, and, feel free to take the car"
  85. [2015-12-16 20:32:07] <VictorR> "Are they connected? Should we expect them to tighten security if we strike one target?"
  86. [2015-12-16 20:34:10] <Falconis> "The items have no relation to each other besides my interest in them. But i wouldn't put it past them anyway"
  87. [2015-12-16 20:35:10] <VictorR> "Then it would be best if we begin promptly."
  88. [2015-12-16 20:36:28] <Sandoval> "Agreed. Should we start with the item en-route, then move to the warf?"
  89. [2015-12-16 20:36:44] <VictorR> "Yes."
  90. [2015-12-16 20:36:59] <VictorR> "A simultaneous approach would be optimal, however...it is likely beyond our reach."
  91. [2015-12-16 20:37:06] <RavenNLN> "It would be wise to get the item already in motion, yes?"
  92. [2015-12-16 20:40:42] <Falconis> "I'll leave you to it then"
  93. [2015-12-16 20:42:56] <Denholm> "The hell's Nightshade?"
  94. [2015-12-16 20:46:00] -->| Gents (~biggest@Rizon-25D6557B.res.bhn.net) has joined #crimeworldIC
  95. [2015-12-16 20:46:46] <Falconis> "Nightshade? They're a private security company. Big guns, big dogs, the usual stuff"
  96. [2015-12-16 20:46:47] =-= Gents is now known as Albrecht
  97. [2015-12-16 20:47:14] <Falconis> "Fairly decent record, but they aren't up to my standards"
  98. [2015-12-16 20:48:35] <VictorR> "I would advise any present shareholders in Nightshade to sell their stock. I foresee a fall after today."
  99. [2015-12-16 20:48:55] * Albrecht looks at victor
  100. [2015-12-16 20:50:59] <VictorR> "No lethality, moving vehicle, public roads. I doubt a fake detour would work."
  101. [2015-12-16 20:52:05] <Sandoval> "I could disrupt the driver, but that would cause collateral damage. And I doubt he would listen if I told him to just stop."
  102. [2015-12-16 20:54:17] <VictorR> "We could blow the traffic lights and slow the city down, to buy ourselves more time."
  103. [2015-12-16 20:54:33] <Albrecht> “How about we just go in and do what we need to do. Worry bout the details later.” It Seems ALbrecht is as impatient as ever
  104. [2015-12-16 20:57:36] <Sandoval> "We need an approach, but we can figure it out as we go. Right now every minute is precious."
  105. [2015-12-16 20:59:14] * Sandoval rises from their seat and makes way towards the elevator.
  106. [2015-12-16 20:59:17] <VictorR> "Agreed."
  107. [2015-12-16 20:59:51] <RavenNLN> "Then let us make haste!" She gets up to leave.
  108. [2015-12-16 21:00:08] * Albrecht also rises. “Yes. Let’s go."
  109. [2015-12-16 21:00:47] =-= Falconis has changed the topic to ``Time: 4pm ''
  110. [2015-12-16 21:00:51] <Denholm> "Aye." Danny was his name, right? Anyway, Danny limps toward the exit.
  111. [2015-12-16 21:00:58] =-= Falconis has changed the topic to ``Time: 4pm || Weather: Rain''
  112. [2015-12-16 21:01:00] <VictorR> Victor follows after them, cycling old ops he's run through his head and searching for the right tool to solve this problem.
  113. [2015-12-16 21:01:44] <Falconis> Ice escorts you down to the ground level and hands over the keys for the SUV as well as an umbrella
  114. [2015-12-16 21:02:03] <Falconis> She hands Victor a .... pokedex?
  115. [2015-12-16 21:02:32] <VictorR> Victor takes and glances at the woman questioningly.
  116. [2015-12-16 21:02:54] <Falconis> She remains silent
  117. [2015-12-16 21:03:31] <VictorR> "Is there a specific purpose for which you wish me to have this device?"
  118. [2015-12-16 21:04:12] * Sandoval takes the keys and climbs into the driver's seat of the SUV.
  119. [2015-12-16 21:04:28] * RavenNLN takes the umbrella. "Maybe she thinks you're good with technology or something."
  120. [2015-12-16 21:04:52] <Falconis> She reaches out and opens the cover. On the screen where pokemon details are normally displayed is instead a map of New Castelia. The beacon blips soundlessly.
  121. [2015-12-16 21:05:34] <VictorR> Victor nods in acknowledgement. "This will aid us."
  122. [2015-12-16 21:06:00] <VictorR> He directs Turk into the rear of the vehicle, then climbs into the backseat.
  123. [2015-12-16 21:06:01] <Falconis> She bows slightly and then returns to the elevator
  124. [2015-12-16 21:07:55] * Albrecht looks like ice
  125. [2015-12-16 21:09:21] <VictorR> "Flip the beast onto its back?"
  126. [2015-12-16 21:09:55] <VictorR> "Though...not exactly controllable lethality in that plan."
  127. [2015-12-16 21:10:14] <Sigurd> "It might also break what its transporting"
  128. [2015-12-16 21:10:31] * Albrecht looks at Ice even then looks around. “I can flip the beast.”
  129. [2015-12-16 21:10:36] <Sandoval> Alex nods. "We have no idea how fragile the cargo is. Perhaps we should have asked about that."
  130. [2015-12-16 21:11:04] <Sandoval> "Then again, if he was concerned about it, he would have specified."
  131. [2015-12-16 21:11:07] <Sigurd> *cough*
  132. [2015-12-16 21:11:38] <RavenNLN> "Might have been good plan to ask what we are grabbing. Though, if we grab everything, we can just keep what he does not need, yes?"
  133. [2015-12-16 21:11:43] <VictorR> "...he also didn't say much about what it is. We've been under the assumption that we'd recognize it, and be able to transport it easily."
  134. [2015-12-16 21:12:03] <Sigurd> "I'm guessing it will large considering it requires a truck"
  135. [2015-12-16 21:12:14] <Sandoval> Assuming everyone is inside the SUV, Alex flips on the engine and starts driving.
  136. [2015-12-16 21:12:25] <VictorR> "Then we might need to take the truck itself."
  137. [2015-12-16 21:12:31] * RavenNLN is totally in the suv
  138. [2015-12-16 21:12:33] * Sigurd hops into the passenger seat
  139. [2015-12-16 21:14:19] <VictorR> "Disable the truck, disable the riders, then take the truck?" Victor muses.
  140. [2015-12-16 21:14:54] <Sigurd> "Sounds good, anyone got any masks or bandannas?"
  141. [2015-12-16 21:16:08] <RavenNLN> "I am wearing mask." She's totally wearing a surgical mask right now.
  142. [2015-12-16 21:16:28] <VictorR> "We might not need any."
  143. [2015-12-16 21:16:41] <VictorR> "Tell me, can any of you function without light?"
  144. [2015-12-16 21:16:55] <Denholm> "What?"
  145. [2015-12-16 21:16:56] <VictorR> "Disrupting the power to the tunnel may give us all the cover we need."
  146. [2015-12-16 21:17:18] <Sigurd> "I can indeed" Sigurd says flashing his night vision goggles
  147. [2015-12-16 21:18:32] <Sandoval> "If necessary, yes."
  148. [2015-12-16 21:19:06] <Denholm> "Uh, no. Normal people don't usually walk around with military equipment."
  149. [2015-12-16 21:19:22] <RavenNLN> "I am content with the darkness. Do not worry about me."
  150. [2015-12-16 21:19:46] <Denholm> "Besides, they've probably got flashlights, right?"
  151. [2015-12-16 21:20:00] * Albrecht hops in
  152. [2015-12-16 21:20:35] <VictorR> "Likely. But we will be prepared for the outage, and they will not. We might be able to blitz them before they have any idea of what is happening."
  153. [2015-12-16 21:21:17] <Denholm> "Well, don't expect me to be of much use if you do."
  154. [2015-12-16 21:22:01] <Albrecht> “I am in deed liking this plan."
  155. [2015-12-16 21:23:32] <Sandoval> "If they're prepared somehow, I can deal with them. Hopefully it won't come to that."
  156. [2015-12-16 21:23:51] <VictorR> "Can you drive...Denholm, was it?"
  157. [2015-12-16 21:24:12] <Denholm> "Drive what?"
  158. [2015-12-16 21:24:22] <VictorR> "A vehicle. This vehicle, specifically."
  159. [2015-12-16 21:24:48] <Denholm> "If you're not expecting to go fast, yes."
  160. [2015-12-16 21:25:20] <VictorR> "That should be adequate."
  161. [2015-12-16 21:25:42] <Sandoval> "Not a fan of my driving?"
  162. [2015-12-16 21:25:45] <VictorR> "We can disable the lighting, then, and return this vehicle once the operation has run."
  163. [2015-12-16 21:25:59] <VictorR> "I imagine the truck should be able to carry the rest of you."
  164. [2015-12-16 21:26:26] <Falconis> You head out of the car park and make your way towards the Truck. Traffic is heavy in some places but you manage to... no wait no there's traffic everywhere. The rain has really done a number on you. Thankfully the truck should be suffering a similar fate, but it's a long hour before you're able to catch up to it.
  165. [2015-12-16 21:26:42] =-= Falconis has changed the topic to ``Time: 5pm || Weather: Light Drizzle ''
  166. [2015-12-16 21:27:43] <Falconis> Thankfully you've managed to catch up before it hit the tunnel, but the structure in question looms ahead. There seems to be a lot of traffic but it's moving steadily.
  167. [2015-12-16 21:27:45] <Falconis> >_
  168. [2015-12-16 21:29:28] <Falconis> The truck itself is a twelve wheeler in matte black. A modern logo on the side says 'Cromium Industries'. A winking Magnemite is painted in place of the O
  169. [2015-12-16 21:30:58] * Sandoval stares at the logo for a moment, wondering why anyone would find that cute or appealing.
  170. [2015-12-16 21:31:26] <Sandoval> "I don't think we're setting a proper ambush. Can you kill the lights remotely?"
  171. [2015-12-16 21:31:54] <VictorR> "I'll try my best, but no guarantees without the controls in front of me."
  172. [2015-12-16 21:32:32] <RavenNLN> "Ugh, it just had to be rush hour..."
  173. [2015-12-16 21:33:18] * Albrecht nods
  174. [2015-12-16 21:33:19] <VictorR> "Saint," Victor says to the invisible Rotom. "Can you blow the power lines leading to the tunnel?"
  175. [2015-12-16 21:36:17] <Falconis> The invisible pokemon may or may not have done something in response, but you do at least hear a warble of confirmation
  176. [2015-12-16 21:36:27] <Falconis> order it to go?
  177. [2015-12-16 21:36:50] <VictorR> "Not yet, Saint."
  178. [2015-12-16 21:38:13] <Falconis> >_
  179. [2015-12-16 21:38:20] <VictorR> Victor ponders to himself for a moment, then thinks himself into the datasphere, looking for a GPS or other network-connected device on the truck.
  180. [2015-12-16 21:41:12] <Falconis> The air is filled with wireless signals. Kids playing games on their systems, computers accessing what faint hotspot signals they can get, one guy doing a paid podcast of the news from his car
  181. [2015-12-16 21:42:14] <Falconis> You seek, and you find. There is indeed a wireless connection in the truck. A simple gps system updating it's progress..
  182. [2015-12-16 21:43:32] <VictorR> "Kill the lights?"
  183. [2015-12-16 21:44:12] <Sandoval> "I thought the original plan was to wait until they pass into the tunnel."
  184. [2015-12-16 21:45:09] <VictorR> "I meant as more of a 'Are we prepared?' question, my apologies. I'm as poised to try this as I can get."
  185. [2015-12-16 21:45:50] <Sandoval> "My apologies then. I'll try to have us in the tunnel before them so we can be ready. If you have flashlights or goggles, grab them now."
  186. [2015-12-16 21:45:55] * Sandoval DRIVES ONWARD
  187. [2015-12-16 21:46:30] * Sigurd slips his goggles on
  188. [2015-12-16 21:47:08] * Sandoval gets their goggles ready as well.
  189. [2015-12-16 21:48:09] <Falconis> You manuver as best you can to edge the truck out in arriving in the tunnel, but even so you only make it in a few car lengths ahead of them .
  190. [2015-12-16 21:48:43] <Falconis> The Truck enters the tunnels. Will you strike now or wait until they are deeper inside?
  191. [2015-12-16 21:49:33] <Sandoval> "On your go Victor."
  192. [2015-12-16 21:49:52] <VictorR> Victors waits until 1 car follows them in, then instructs Saint to blow the lines.
  193. [2015-12-16 21:50:08] <RavenNLN> "Whenever you are ready, I am ready."
  194. [2015-12-16 21:51:44] <Falconis> With the sounds of exploding transformers and shattering glass the lights all along the tunnel explode, casting teh area into darkness
  195. [2015-12-16 21:52:04] <Falconis> red emergency bars light up near the walls
  196. [2015-12-16 21:52:28] <Falconis> [+INFRASTRUCTURE DAMAGE]
  197. [2015-12-16 21:52:39] <Denholm> "Maybe we should buy stock in a lighting company if this is going to be a common thing."
  198. [2015-12-16 21:53:04] <VictorR> "That...is actually a very smart plan, Victor says, glancing at the emergency lighting."
  199. [2015-12-16 21:53:20] <Falconis> cars smash into each other and horns blare into the darkness
  200. [2015-12-16 21:53:37] * Albrecht puts on his goggles and moves out of the bus
  201. [2015-12-16 21:53:39] <Falconis> Traffic has stopped, it seems you yourself were rear ended by an unlucky firari
  202. [2015-12-16 21:53:45] <Falconis> Ferrari
  203. [2015-12-16 21:53:45] * Sandoval maneuvers the vehicle to avoid a collision.
  204. [2015-12-16 21:53:54] * Sigurd slips out of the car and makes his to the truck
  205. [2015-12-16 21:54:31] <Falconis> ...or you would but Sandoval skillfully avoids the tragedy, slipping the SUV between lanes at the last second
  206. [2015-12-16 21:54:42] <Falconis> SIGURD IS ON THE MOVE
  207. [2015-12-16 21:55:07] * Albrecht is also heading to the trucj
  208. [2015-12-16 21:55:08] <Falconis> The truck stopped immidiately. From within the driving station you can make out movement
  209. [2015-12-16 21:55:19] <Falconis> You have the initiative, if only for a moment.

  212. [2015-12-16 21:56:04] * Sandoval climbs out of the SUV, approaching the truck but staying towards the rear.
  213. [2015-12-16 21:56:06] * Albrecht rushes over to the truck, sprinting forth
  214. [2015-12-16 21:56:23] <VictorR> Victor instructs Turk to follow Sigurd, and clambers over into the driver's seat.
  215. [2015-12-16 21:56:46] * Sigurd sprints up to the drivers side and attempts to open the door
  216. [2015-12-16 21:57:16] * Albrecht crawls ontop of the truck and tries to wait to ambush them
  217. [2015-12-16 21:57:48] * RavenNLN jumps out of the truck and releases a... black Nincada?
  218. [2015-12-16 21:58:20] <Falconis> Sigurd tries to open the drivers door.... It's locked.
  219. [2015-12-16 21:58:33] * Sigurd growls in annoyance and starts tapping into his powers, his fist glints like steel in the lighting before he punches at the glass
  220. [2015-12-16 21:58:40] * Denholm releases a fish and aims it at the doors.
  221. [2015-12-16 21:58:44] <Falconis> The Truck's headlights turn on, illuminating the area
  222. [2015-12-16 21:59:25] <Falconis> The glass shatters like... well glass
  223. [2015-12-16 21:59:45] <Falconis> Curses can be heard from the inside. The readying of a weapon
  224. [2015-12-16 22:00:01] <Falconis> Sandoval, you hear movement from the back of the truck
  225. [2015-12-16 22:00:03] <Falconis> >_
  226. [2015-12-16 22:01:07] * Sigurd punches at the driver
  227. [2015-12-16 22:01:13] * Sandoval moves to intercept, moving in a circular motion towards the back.
  228. [2015-12-16 22:03:26] <Falconis> Sigurd punches inside the cockpit. You hit something meaty and you hear something fall to the floor.
  229. [2015-12-16 22:03:45] <Falconis> Sandoval: The movement continues, but the back does not open.
  230. [2015-12-16 22:03:47] <Falconis> >_
  231. [2015-12-16 22:04:14] * Albrecht sits on top of the truck and waits
  232. [2015-12-16 22:04:16] * Sigurd unlocks the trucks door and slips in
  233. [2015-12-16 22:04:19] <Falconis> The passenger door opens and a man in body armour jumps out holding a shotgun
  234. [2015-12-16 22:04:28] <Falconis> he moves to circle to the drivers side
  235. [2015-12-16 22:04:32] <Sigurd> "Shit! Brick get him!"
  236. [2015-12-16 22:04:45] <VictorR> Turk vaults bodily onto the man to knock him over.
  237. [2015-12-16 22:07:04] <Falconis> Turk slams into the man and knocks him into the bonnet as Brick appears.
  238. [2015-12-16 22:07:09] <Falconis> This is getting hairy

  240. [2015-12-16 22:07:36] <VictorR> Victor sniffs quietly in the SUV and keeps trying to edge the car forward whenever space clears up ahead.

  257. [2015-12-16 22:12:25] <Albrecht> (I KNOW)
  258. [2015-12-16 22:13:44] <Falconis> Bzzoorrp. The beam of psychic energy cuts through him without resistance

  263. [2015-12-16 22:16:07] <Sandoval> Staying at the rear of the truck, Alex moves behind a car for cover.

  336. [2015-12-16 22:58:24] <VictorR> Turk clambers onto the roof of the truck, firmly holding onto the edges.
  337. [2015-12-16 22:59:41] <Falconis> The truck squeals into motion and exits the tunnel
  338. [2015-12-16 23:00:43] <VictorR> Victor watches the truck pull out the tunnel, and waves from the side of the road.
  339. [2015-12-16 23:03:05] <Falconis> Where to?
  340. [2015-12-16 23:03:10] <Falconis> Wat do?
  341. [2015-12-16 23:03:21] <Sigurd> an abandoned place
  342. [2015-12-16 23:03:26] <Sigurd> Industrial complex?
  343. [2015-12-16 23:04:10] * Sigurd calls up VictoR
  344. [2015-12-16 23:04:41] <Sigurd> "I need you lead us somewhere we can deal with any tracking devices and the man in the back"
  345. [2015-12-16 23:05:21] <VictorR> Victor routs the signal to his datajack, and blinks at the statement.
  346. [2015-12-16 23:05:41] <VictorR> "I...will try to find somewhere."
  347. [2015-12-16 23:05:54] <VictorR> "Some of you may want to hop vehicles, though."
  348. [2015-12-16 23:06:29] <Sandoval> "Then you saw the camera too."
  349. [2015-12-16 23:06:40] <Albrecht> “What?"
  350. [2015-12-16 23:07:02] <Sigurd> "We'll need to do something about the logos and plates"
  351. [2015-12-16 23:07:37] <VictorR> Victor hooks into the truck's GPS system and looks for a nearby sanctuary they can exploit for a few moments.
  352. [2015-12-16 23:09:11] <Falconis> It's not that difficult to find a construction site thats not currently in use. The construction itself is suspended, but the concealed yard is still there if you can open it.
  353. [2015-12-16 23:09:38] <Falconis> You also note that the truck is reporting it's position back to wherever it's base is. You suppose manhours are tracked so the drivers don't waste time.
  354. [2015-12-16 23:10:15] <VictorR> Victor tries to memorize the location, then shut off the GPS.
  355. [2015-12-16 23:11:56] <Falconis> The GPS turns off mournfully
  356. [2015-12-16 23:15:22] <VictorR> Victor pulls out with the SUV, heading towards the construction yard and gesturing for the truck to follow.
  357. [2015-12-16 23:15:41] * Sigurd drives the truck in the yard, ignoring the gate in his way
  358. [2015-12-16 23:16:52] <Sigurd> "Now to deal with our friend in the back" Sigurd says switching the truck off and slipping out fo the cabin
  359. [2015-12-16 23:17:06] <Falconis> GATE GOT
  360. [2015-12-16 23:17:57] <Falconis> The construction yard is quiet
  361. [2015-12-16 23:18:09] <Falconis> a sign for 'Meeples Cookie House' lies in the dust, unusued
  362. [2015-12-16 23:18:19] <Falconis> >+
  363. [2015-12-16 23:18:45] * Albrecht waits at the back of the truck
  364. [2015-12-16 23:19:53] * Denholm gets out and tries to figure out which is better, fishgun or shotgun.
  365. [2015-12-16 23:19:56] <VictorR> Victor climbs out the SUV, directing Saint to hunt down any other electronics systems that look like tracking devices and destroy them.
  366. [2015-12-16 23:20:19] * Sigurd walks up to the side of the back doors then counts down to three and swings the one on the left open
  367. [2015-12-16 23:21:38] * Sandoval steps out of the SUV, leaning against the side of it as they watch for trouble.
  368. [2015-12-16 23:23:15] * RavenNLN hops out, because obviously everyone needs to watch the doors
  369. [2015-12-16 23:23:16] <Falconis> a muffled boom sounds from inside the SUV right before you open the door. All the phones you recieved fizzle out
  370. [2015-12-16 23:23:34] <Sigurd> "What the fuck"
  371. [2015-12-16 23:23:41] <Falconis> The door opens and a cursing man stumbles out, tripping over the air and falls to the ground
  372. [2015-12-16 23:23:52] <Falconis> smoke pours from inside the hold
  373. [2015-12-16 23:24:06] <Falconis> the man knocks his head on the ground and falls unconcious
  374. [2015-12-16 23:24:12] * Albrecht blinks
  375. [2015-12-16 23:24:46] * Sigurd rushes into the hold
  376. [2015-12-16 23:25:17] <Falconis> A smoking a sputtering device sits on top of a bunch of well secured steel crates marked 'Do Not Open'
  377. [2015-12-16 23:25:23] <Sandoval> "I take it that was your doing Victor?" Alex walks over to the unconscious guard and checks his body.
  378. [2015-12-16 23:25:25] <Falconis> You cannot divine it's purpose
  379. [2015-12-16 23:25:32] <Falconis> its*
  380. [2015-12-16 23:25:52] <VictorR> "That ah...might have been a monkey's paw effect on my part."
  381. [2015-12-16 23:26:09] <Sigurd> "Victor I need you come in here and take a look at this"
  382. [2015-12-16 23:26:24] <Sigurd> "It might not be as bad as we think"
  383. [2015-12-16 23:26:31] <Sigurd> "...or it might be worse"
  384. [2015-12-16 23:27:01] <VictorR> Victor walks around to the back of the truck, releasing Turk from his vigil on top of the vehicle, and climbs in to the back.
  385. [2015-12-16 23:27:21] <Falconis> Turk completes a graceful triple backflip while no one is looking
  386. [2015-12-16 23:27:53] <Falconis> A small triangular framework of steel and wires sits upon the crates. It smokes and sparks. It's purpose is a mystery
  387. [2015-12-16 23:28:17] <Falconis> Or it would be if you hadn't seen one of these before
  388. [2015-12-16 23:28:54] <Falconis> This is a simple tracking becon, the frame is made to amplify the signal so that it can even be picked up through stone
  389. [2015-12-16 23:29:17] <Falconis> it is not attached, but simply resting upon the boxes
  390. [2015-12-16 23:29:56] <Falconis> >_
  391. [2015-12-16 23:30:07] <Sigurd> "So what is it?"
  392. [2015-12-16 23:30:37] * Albrecht checks the thing
  393. [2015-12-16 23:30:38] <VictorR> "It's fine. A trinket to track the vehicle, one we're better off without."
  394. [2015-12-16 23:30:40] <Albrecht> “What is this thing?"
  395. [2015-12-16 23:31:11] * Sandoval gives Victor a long and hard stare.
  396. [2015-12-16 23:31:12] <Sigurd> "Okay, we need some black paint to cover up the trucks markings"
  397. [2015-12-16 23:31:17] * Denholm looks at the boxes. "We came for those, then?"
  398. [2015-12-16 23:34:56] <VictorR> "For now, that will do. But the broken windshield and cabin window will also draw attention."
  399. [2015-12-16 23:35:25] * Sigurd looks to Albrecht
  400. [2015-12-16 23:35:29] <VictorR> "We'll need to take it to someone to properly repair those, and professionally repaint the sides."
  401. [2015-12-16 23:36:21] * Albrecht looks Sigurd
  402. [2015-12-16 23:37:15] <Sigurd> "Can you tell if a police vehicle is around? if so You'll need to ride shotgun wiht me and direct me away from them"
  403. [2015-12-16 23:37:48] <Denholm> "Where are we supposed to deliver this, again?"
  404. [2015-12-16 23:40:13] <Albrecht> “Ask my sister."
  405. [2015-12-16 23:40:27] <Albrecht> He points to raven and grins
  406. [2015-12-16 23:40:33] <Albrecht> “Oh course I can you dolt."
  407. [2015-12-16 23:41:13] <Sigurd> "...what?" Sigurd looks to Victor "Whats he going on about?"
  408. [2015-12-16 23:41:23] <Albrecht> “I’m insulting your intelligence."
  409. [2015-12-16 23:42:19] <RavenNLN> "Babbling nonsense is not a very good insult, you know."
  410. [2015-12-16 23:42:34] <Albrecht> “Perhaps to the simple minded."
  411. [2015-12-16 23:42:53] <Sigurd> "Perphaps that is why you thought it was a good insult then?"
  412. [2015-12-16 23:43:26] <VictorR> "There is no guarantee on tracking police cars. Every city has different countermeasures and protocols, and I haven't been here long enough to learn New Castelia's."
  413. [2015-12-16 23:44:00] <Sandoval> "Before you ingrates waste any more of our time insulting one another... we need to deliver the cargo to the penthouse. Or so one would assume, we weren't told of any other dropoff location."
  414. [2015-12-16 23:45:17] <Sandoval> "If we need to get the truck repaired, I suggest we split up and let our main group move for our other target. We won't have much time left once we arrive."
  415. [2015-12-16 23:45:52] <Sigurd> "Maybe we don't even need the truck? perhaps we can fit the boxes into the SUV"
  416. [2015-12-16 23:46:09] <Sigurd> "Granted some of us will need to take other means of transport"
  417. [2015-12-16 23:46:24] <VictorR> "It would be a waste of a perfectly good truck, but we can stash it until after we finish the second half of the job."
  418. [2015-12-16 23:46:39] <Albrecht> “I say we take a small guard and the other of us take a differen route."
  419. [2015-12-16 23:48:03] <Sigurd> "Also we'll need to wipe the truck down to removes DNA and finger prints"
  420. [2015-12-16 23:48:19] <Sigurd> "...or we could just burn it"
  421. [2015-12-16 23:48:38] <VictorR> "Still a waste of a perfectly servicable truck."
  422. [2015-12-16 23:49:55] <Sandoval> "What's our plan for the warf? One of us could use this man's uniform as a disguise."
  423. [2015-12-16 23:50:04] <VictorR> "Let's stash the truck somewhere closer to the Cameron Building, and carry the payload over with the car."
  424. [2015-12-16 23:50:24] <Sigurd> "Theres the other one in the cabin"
  425. [2015-12-16 23:50:37] <VictorR> "If we're splitting up now, it should just be to get some information on the wharf."
  426. [2015-12-16 23:51:53] <Sigurd> "Stashing the truck will be hard if people remember seeing a black truck with markings and missing windows in the are"
  427. [2015-12-16 23:52:08] <RavenNLN> "It's just a truck. We could get another one."
  428. [2015-12-16 23:52:16] <Sigurd> "And theres that"
  429. [2015-12-16 23:52:30] <VictorR> "I suppose."
  430. [2015-12-16 23:52:52] <Sandoval> "Just leave the truck here. If it hasn't been confiscated by the police when we come back, we'll deal with it then."
  431. [2015-12-16 23:53:12] <Sigurd> "At any rate we need to either burn it or move ASAP if they still had GPS on this position"
  432. [2015-12-16 23:53:39] <VictorR> "Well, I wouldn't leave it here exactly: this is the last place they have as its recorded location."
  433. [2015-12-16 23:53:54] <VictorR> "But dead-dropping it and coming back later is a sound plan."
  434. [2015-12-16 23:54:20] <Sigurd> "what about these two?" Sigurd says nudging the man on the ground
  435. [2015-12-16 23:54:59] <VictorR> "We can leave them, though."
  436. [2015-12-16 23:55:04] <VictorR> "No point in taking them further."
  437. [2015-12-16 23:55:09] <Sigurd> "Ok, also Victor I'll need you to ride shotgun to direct me to a storage place"
  438. [2015-12-16 23:55:09] <Sandoval> "Take their uniforms if we want disguises, leave the rest. You could take their shotgun as well if that interests you."
  439. [2015-12-16 23:56:22] * Albrecht takes the uniforms
  440. [2015-12-16 23:56:22] <Albrecht> “Excellent, I love infiltration."
  441. [2015-12-16 23:58:00] <Falconis> [Get 2x Nightshade Security Uniforms]
  442. [2015-12-17 00:03:11] <Falconis> The crates are stacked in the SUV and the party moves off, Albrecht driving the truck after them. The vehicle is conspicuous with it's shattered windsield and combat damage but it doesn't seem like it's going to be a problem... yet
  443. [2015-12-17 00:07:01] * Albrecht brings truck to secluded corner
  444. [2015-12-17 00:07:15] <Falconis> The truck fears for it's chastity
  445. [2015-12-17 00:07:27] <Falconis> The truck is left behind and everyone piles into the SUV
  446. [2015-12-17 00:07:32] <Falconis> darkness threatens
  447. [2015-12-17 00:07:42] <Sigurd> "Floor it!"
  448. [2015-12-17 00:07:46] =-= Falconis has changed the topic to ``Time: 5pm || Weather: Cold''
  449. [2015-12-17 00:09:16] <Falconis> You make horrible, absolutely horrible time on the way to the warf, but you make it
  450. [2015-12-17 00:09:53] <Falconis> A large frieghter is being loaded as you arrive, by the report it isn't set to leave until 8, but you're cutting it close.
  451. [2015-12-17 00:10:03] =-= Falconis has changed the topic to ``Time: 7pm || Weather: Cold and Dark''
  452. [2015-12-17 00:11:33] <Falconis> The warf is fenced off much like others of it's kind. Huge industrial cranes swing ponderously about, lifting crates through the air and unto the waiting ship where it is handled by it's crew
  453. [2015-12-17 00:12:11] <Falconis> Bright orange light illuminate most of the area, casting just as dark shadows from the mountains of shipping containers.
  454. [2015-12-17 00:13:17] <Falconis> The pokedex? in your possession shows the position of the target. It is somewhere inside and closer to the sea than it is the far fence
  455. [2015-12-17 00:13:21] <Falconis> ....did i just move?
  456. [2015-12-17 00:13:23] <Falconis> it*
  457. [2015-12-17 00:13:24] <Falconis> >_
  458. [2015-12-17 00:14:15] <VictorR> "...so unless we want to acquire a large seaworthy vehicle, I think we're gonna have to move fast."
  459. [2015-12-17 00:15:48] * Sigurd quickly hands out several strips of clothing "Wear these"
  460. [2015-12-17 00:16:29] <Sandoval> "Damnit." Alex pulls on their bandanna and disembarks from the SUV. "So now what?"
  461. [2015-12-17 00:16:50] <VictorR> Victor takes 4, covering his hair, the back of his hands, and lower face to hide anything potentially distinguishing.
  462. [2015-12-17 00:17:26] * Sigurd covers his lower face and slips on his goggles
  463. [2015-12-17 00:17:30] <Sigurd> "Lets move"
  464. [2015-12-17 00:18:32] * RavenNLN puts a bandana over her, mask. "You know where it is, right?"
  465. [2015-12-17 00:18:45] <Sigurd> "Take out the lights and any cameras"
  466. [2015-12-17 00:19:03] * Albrecht puts a bandanna on
  467. [2015-12-17 00:19:33] <VictorR> Victor whispers to Saint to pop the light bulbs and leave the machinery, giving them a cover of darkness.
  468. [2015-12-17 00:21:39] <Falconis> Saint blinks out of existence and a red light streaks across the night
  469. [2015-12-17 00:22:08] <Falconis> [Driver] guns the engine and slams through the barrier as the first light begin to explode
  470. [2015-12-17 00:22:27] <Falconis> It is not the instant work of prior, but the lights are slowly going out in waves
  471. [2015-12-17 00:22:48] <Falconis> The guards shout at you as you barrel through, but you pay them no mind. You're getting closer...
  472. [2015-12-17 00:22:52] <Falconis> So many crates...
  473. [2015-12-17 00:23:37] <Falconis> There, you spot it!
  474. [2015-12-17 00:23:39] <Falconis> You hope
  475. [2015-12-17 00:24:00] * Albrecht looks around
  476. [2015-12-17 00:24:00] <VictorR> Victor double-checks their location vs. the locator-dex.
  477. [2015-12-17 00:24:10] <Sigurd> "I think I see it!"
  478. [2015-12-17 00:25:01] <Falconis> A container is being moved by a strange steel frame on four legs. A storm of Klink swarm around it, much to the displeasure of the vest wearing workers who are trying to drive them off with electro nets
  479. [2015-12-17 00:25:37] <Falconis> A duo of Nightshade Security guards march beside it, paying no mind to the storm of pokemon, they only have eyes for the sudden loss of lights
  480. [2015-12-17 00:25:55] <Falconis> Victor: the location seems to match... but you aren't 100% certain
  481. [2015-12-17 00:26:04] <Falconis> >_
  482. [2015-12-17 00:28:21] <VictorR> "Saint! Turk! Mechanical Form! Get in the damn box!"
  483. [2015-12-17 00:28:41] <Sigurd> "Why are there so many magnetic pokemon?"
  484. [2015-12-17 00:29:32] * Albrecht blinks at the guards
  485. [2015-12-17 00:29:58] <Sigurd> 'Careful, theres also Magnimite and Beldum around"
  486. [2015-12-17 00:29:58] <Falconis> A sound from Japanese dreams resounds and a bright light flashes through the gloom
  487. [2015-12-17 00:30:10] <Falconis> Where Turk once stood is a grinning roboman
  488. [2015-12-17 00:30:51] <VictorR> "There's- damn, Saint, stay back."
  489. [2015-12-17 00:31:11] <VictorR> "Magnets will not do anything good for you right now."
  490. [2015-12-17 00:31:40] <RavenNLN> "Nasty swarm right there. Watch it."
  491. [2015-12-17 00:32:36] <Falconis> *Skreeonk*
  492. [2015-12-17 00:33:33] <Falconis> You continue gassing it like hitler and charge in under a wave of shattering lights.
  493. [2015-12-17 00:33:53] <Falconis> As you draw closer the guards seem to notice you and begin getting out of the way.
  494. [2015-12-17 00:34:11] <Falconis> You skid to a stop 100 meters out.
  495. [2015-12-17 00:34:15] <Falconis> The swarm twitches
  496. [2015-12-17 00:34:21] <Sigurd> "Uh"
  497. [2015-12-17 00:34:22] <Falconis> >_
  498. [2015-12-17 00:34:28] <Sigurd> "Shit"!
  499. [2015-12-17 00:35:20] <VictorR> "Shit indeed, my friend."
  500. [2015-12-17 00:35:45] <Falconis> The Security guards reach for weapons and radioes, but they seem to be waiting for your movement before firing
  501. [2015-12-17 00:36:18] <Sigurd> "Don't suppose you could get those radios?"
  502. [2015-12-17 00:37:27] <VictorR> "Doubt I can get them in time, but...Saint? Any shot?"
  503. [2015-12-17 00:38:06] <Falconis> The fighting robot ghost makes an uncertain noise
  504. [2015-12-17 00:38:49] <Sigurd> "gonna ahve to make this quick"
  505. [2015-12-17 00:39:42] * Sigurd exists the car and moves close
  506. [2015-12-17 00:39:51] <Sigurd> "Try to get more of the lights!" he shouts to Victor

  783. [2015-12-17 02:42:27] <Falconis> When you enter the penthouse you notice another person who wasn't there before
  784. [2015-12-17 02:42:48] <Falconis> She stands beside the screen with her back turned to you....what is she looking at. The only thing in that direction is the wall.

  787. [2015-12-17 02:44:18] <Falconis> If she heard you, or even noticed your existence, there doesn't seem to be a way to tell.

  789. [2015-12-17 02:44:31] <Falconis> Ice glances at Sigurd momentarily and blinks
  790. [2015-12-17 02:45:00] <Falconis> She walks foward and turns on the screen to once again show your 'benefactor' roughly in the same state as before.
  791. [2015-12-17 02:45:12] <Falconis> She stands at the other side of the screen, simply, waiting
  792. [2015-12-17 02:45:16] * Sigurd drops his hand

  803. [2015-12-17 02:50:22] <Sigurd> "Plus the suit and three boxes form the truck"

  805. [2015-12-17 02:51:20] <Falconis> He looks on the table and his smile slowly fades, only a shadow of it's former brilliance remaining
  806. [2015-12-17 02:51:41] <Falconis> "Ah... what happened to the rest of the cube"
  807. [2015-12-17 02:52:21] * Denholm coughs aggressively and glares in Albert's direction.

  815. [2015-12-17 02:53:59] <Falconis> "But i don't see it here"
  816. [2015-12-17 02:54:08] <Falconis> "Thats the core, right?"
  817. [2015-12-17 02:54:11] <Falconis> "Where the rest"
  818. [2015-12-17 02:54:44] <VictorR> "What is the rest comprised of?"
  819. [2015-12-17 02:55:51] <Falconis> He frowns slightly and start making straight lines in the air with his hands
  820. [2015-12-17 02:56:08] <Falconis> "Well, a cube see? A cube made out of gears and metal and pokemon"
  821. [2015-12-17 02:56:21] <Falconis> "That was supposed to be inside it"
  822. [2015-12-17 02:56:36] <VictorR> "Ah."

  824. [2015-12-17 02:56:52] <VictorR> "The rest was not attached, or in the shape of a cube."
  825. [2015-12-17 02:57:10] <VictorR> "At the time, it was a large swarm of Pokemon attacking us and we treated them accordingly."
  826. [2015-12-17 02:57:32] <Falconis> "I see..."
  827. [2015-12-17 02:57:49] <Falconis> "Well, it can't be helped. You'll have to find replacement parts yourselves"
  828. [2015-12-17 02:58:17] <Falconis> "You see, this was a test of sorts. A final hurdle if you will"
  829. [2015-12-17 02:58:56] <Falconis> "Those items you stole today are mine. I had them guarded Nightshade and gave them some bunk orders"
  830. [2015-12-17 02:59:29] <Denholm> "Ah, that would explain the trackers."
  831. [2015-12-17 02:59:29] <Falconis> "This way, you get experience, you find some cool gear and you get your rep started by beating on Nightshade a bit"
  832. [2015-12-17 02:59:52] <Falconis> "In those crates, you'll find your pay for this mission as well as some extra"
  833. [2015-12-17 02:59:55] <Falconis> "The ahh"
  834. [2015-12-17 02:59:58] <Falconis> "The cube"
  835. [2015-12-17 03:00:10] <Falconis> "Was supposed to gather pokemon for your little enterprise"
  836. [2015-12-17 03:00:32] <Falconis> "It's a rather expensive bit of technology, attracts mechanical pokemon"
  837. [2015-12-17 03:00:37] <Falconis> "I don't really know how it works"
  838. [2015-12-17 03:00:49] <Sigurd> "And the suit?"sigurd asks
  839. [2015-12-17 03:00:58] <Falconis> "But at least you still have the core. I'm sure with time you can repair it?"
  840. [2015-12-17 03:01:06] <Falconis> "Suit? I don't know anything about a suit"
  841. [2015-12-17 03:01:32] <Falconis> "If it's one of Night Shades, they have their own equipment for high danger jobs i guess"
  842. [2015-12-17 03:01:37] <VictorR> Victor hms to himself, considering the possibility of a MECHANICAL PSYCHIC BRAIN and what he could do with some research time.
  843. [2015-12-17 03:01:55] <Sandoval> "Most likely. I'm a psychic, Victor is good with technology, and Albrecht is knowledgeable about the occult. Between the three of us, we should be able to come up with a solution."
  844. [2015-12-17 03:01:58] <Sigurd> Äh my mistake"
  845. [2015-12-17 03:02:15] <Sigurd> "so.. who is our guest?" Sigured asks looking to the woman

  847. [2015-12-17 03:02:55] <Sigurd> "Of course" sigured mutters under his breath
  848. [2015-12-17 03:03:04] <Falconis> "She will also be assisting you in the days ahead. I thought you might need some more help, Ice isn't really the talkative type"
  849. [2015-12-17 03:03:35] <Sigurd> Has Fire moved at all?
  850. [2015-12-17 03:03:45] <Falconis> She has not
  851. [2015-12-17 03:05:42] <Falconis> "Ice can help you on the money side and Fire is really good with people"
  852. [2015-12-17 03:05:51] <Falconis> "You'll love them, trust me"
  853. [2015-12-17 03:06:33] <Falconis> He turns his wrist upwards for a moment, a glittering Rolex shining in the firelight
  854. [2015-12-17 03:06:37] <Sigurd> "I'm sure we will"
  855. [2015-12-17 03:07:01] <VictorR> "Did we pass, then?"
  856. [2015-12-17 03:07:28] <Falconis> His smirk slowly returns
  857. [2015-12-17 03:07:33] <Falconis> "You tell me"
  858. [2015-12-17 03:08:09] <Sigurd> "considering we're even here I'd say yes"
  859. [2015-12-17 03:09:07] <Falconis> He leans back in his chair "I look forward to our future togethr, Candidates. Rest up, we have a lot of work to do tomorrow"
