  1. [2014-01-12 19:33:42] <Falconis> Session 9? Mission 2 wrapup, logging start
  2. [2014-01-12 19:34:01] <Falconis> Dawn on the third day comes as any other, the sun caring not for the drastically changed China beneath it. After resting for the majority of the third day, Power Gym visits aside, the party awakes to what is probably unsurprising news.
  3. [2014-01-12 19:34:01] <Falconis> General Hao wants them home. Immidiately.
  4. [2014-01-12 19:34:01] <Falconis> Diplomat Yu delivers the message with judgelike soberness.
  5. [2014-01-12 19:34:01] <Falconis> "Empress Qui has consented to your departure, though I must remain here to fill Diplomat Yuu's shoes. If you have any unfinished business here, I suggest that you finish it post haste, and return home with your boat."
  6. [2014-01-12 19:34:01] <Falconis> >_
  7. [2014-01-12 19:35:13] =-= TheBMW is now known as Abram
  8. [2014-01-12 19:37:08] <Falconis> (Yuu says that, Yu is dead)
  9. [2014-01-12 19:37:54] <Falconis> To remind you
  10. [2014-01-12 19:38:50] <Falconis> You are in Diplomat Yuu's quarters, where you have all bedded down, and is kind of your unofficial meeting area
  11. [2014-01-12 19:43:24] <Abram> "I'm ready. How about the rest of you?"
  12. [2014-01-12 19:44:22] <Falconis> Jay adjusts his hat and brushes a speck of dust from his jacket "Good on my end"
  13. [2014-01-12 19:45:08] <Falconis> A slightly tinted green Aron sits by his heel, watching you all with a modicum of interest
  14. [2014-01-12 19:49:14] * Dinah stares Yu down absently and holds out her hand
  15. [2014-01-12 19:49:17] <Dinah> "My sword?"
  16. [2014-01-12 19:49:39] <Falconis> Yuu stares at you blankly for a moment and then snaps his fingers
  17. [2014-01-12 19:50:42] <Falconis> "Ah, yes. I believe it may still be in the Empress's possession. I will have to request it back immediately. My apologies for forgetting, I have been preoccupied with the alliance dealings"
  18. [2014-01-12 19:51:26] <Falconis> Yuu strokes the beginnings of a mustache and turns to exit before pausing "Ah, was there anything else?"
  19. [2014-01-12 19:51:34] <Dinah> "Quite alright, I'll be ready to go once thats taken care of"
  20. [2014-01-12 19:53:11] <Falconis> Yuu nods "Very well, the limo is at the front if you wish to begin moving your things. I will seek an audience and return"
  21. [2014-01-12 19:53:37] <Falconis> with that, he scurries off down the wide hallways, a duo of servants following him like lilipup on heel.
  22. [2014-01-12 19:53:40] <Falconis> >_
  23. [2014-01-12 19:53:50] <Falconis> (you guys waiting here or...)
  24. [2014-01-12 19:54:48] <Abram> "What a trip." Abram starts gathering his things, more than ready to leave.
  25. [2014-01-12 19:54:58] <Dinah> "Eh, I dunno. I had fun"
  26. [2014-01-12 19:56:17] * Dinah leans back in her chair waiting on Yuu with her sword
  27. [2014-01-12 19:57:37] <Falconis> After some time, Yuu returns, Falcatta in hand and holding a folded piece of paper
  28. [2014-01-12 19:58:17] * Dinah holds out her hand expectadly
  29. [2014-01-12 19:58:24] <Dinah> expectantly even
  30. [2014-01-12 19:58:28] <Falconis> "The Empress sends her thanks for allowing her to view your weapon for the past day, it looked very nice on the end of her Bed, she notes"
  31. [2014-01-12 19:58:43] <Falconis> He hands you the sword and pockets the paper
  32. [2014-01-12 19:59:24] <Dinah> "Haha, tell her I hope she sketched the design so she can craft one that puts mine to shame"
  33. [2014-01-12 19:59:30] * Dinah pointedly glances at the paper
  34. [2014-01-12 20:01:33] <Falconis> "I will be certain to pass that on." Yuu smiles a bit and pats his pocket "Oh, this is nothing, don't worry. Shall we go?"
  35. [2014-01-12 20:01:48] <Abram> "Yes, let's."
  36. [2014-01-12 20:03:49] * Dinah follows after, resheathing her blade
  37. [2014-01-12 20:04:57] <Falconis> Yuu's smile seems more genuine and lighthearted than any you've seen before, but you can't really tell what's behind it. Yuu nods and leads you out of the palace, reversing the path you took the very first day you came here
  38. [2014-01-12 20:07:11] <Falconis> The halls are just as bright and clean as when you first arrived, and quite likely boring by now. Yuu leads you outside and down the steps to the waiting Limousine. A familliar Gallade wearing a drivers suit stands by the door, looking attentive.
  39. [2014-01-12 20:07:53] * Dinah raises an eyebrow but says nothing, hand on her blade
  40. [2014-01-12 20:08:00] <Dinah> hand on her blade's hilt*
  41. [2014-01-12 20:08:09] <Falconis> that could have been disastrous
  42. [2014-01-12 20:08:37] <Falconis> Jun opens the door as you hit the bottom steps careful to use the hand that isn't in a cast and Yuu slides in.
  43. [2014-01-12 20:08:40] <Falconis> >_
  44. [2014-01-12 20:09:52] * Abram stops for a moment, giving Jun a smile, before sliding inside with Yuu.
  45. [2014-01-12 20:10:27] <Falconis> Jun winks as well as a Gallade can
  46. [2014-01-12 20:10:56] <Falconis> about 5/10 on the wink scale
  47. [2014-01-12 20:11:05] * Dinah flashes him a smile as she slides into the car as well once allowed
  48. [2014-01-12 20:11:34] <Falconis> He shuts the door after you all pile in and hops in around the drivers side. In short order the limo is moving off TO THE FUTURE
  49. [2014-01-12 20:11:42] <Falconis> your future is a port
  50. [2014-01-12 20:11:49] <Falconis> anything to say on the ride?
  51. [2014-01-12 20:13:09] <Abram> <So, how'd you make it out of that mess?> Abram is already accustomed to Jun's telepathic speaking.
  52. [2014-01-12 20:13:24] <Dinah> Dinah closes her eyes as they drive on, glad they completed their mission successfully
  53. [2014-01-12 20:15:38] <Falconis> <Luck, mostly. The owners of the backyard I ended up in got me to a doctor as quickly as they could. It's no Pokecenter work, but It helped me keep breathing at least>
  54. [2014-01-12 20:16:40] <Falconis> The 20 minute drive to Tianjin passes in a flash and you cruise through to the poor coastal town of Binhai without trouble.
  55. [2014-01-12 20:18:04] <Falconis> You find your boat exactly where you left it, and most citizens seem to be giving it a wide berth for one reason or another. Some glare at your Limo as you pass by. Jun pulls the Limo up by the dock and opens the doors
  56. [2014-01-12 20:18:06] <Abram> <I didn't fare much better. It's a good thing I have a medical backround.> Abram looks out the window, shuddering slightly at the sight of the village. <I'm just glad you made it out in time.>
  57. [2014-01-12 20:18:06] =-= Dinah is now known as Dinah_China
  58. [2014-01-12 20:19:44] <Falconis> <As am I Mr. Cameron.>
  59. [2014-01-12 20:20:11] * Abram steps out of the limo, adjusting his attire slightly.
  60. [2014-01-12 20:20:12] <Falconis> Yuu slides out and strides over to your boat, giving it a brief look over before turning back to the group
  61. [2014-01-12 20:21:06] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Well then, I suppose this is where we part ways. It has been a short adventure, but I am glad to have had it with you. I wish you all the best in the continued war effort"
  62. [2014-01-12 20:22:27] <Abram> "Likewise, Diplomat Yuu. I guess this is goodbye." Abram extends a hand to him.
  63. [2014-01-12 20:22:59] <Falconis> Yuu clasps your hand in his, and shakes it. His hand isn't very strong, but he's got spirit at least.
  64. [2014-01-12 20:23:53] <Falconis> He bids each of you goodbye in turn and watches patiently
  65. [2014-01-12 20:23:54] <Falconis> >_
  66. [2014-01-12 20:24:55] <Abram> Once done, Abram turns and offers it to Jun as well. <Good luck out there Jun. If I ever see you again, I'm buying you a drink.>
  67. [2014-01-12 20:25:40] <Falconis> Jun shakes your hand as well as a gallade can, which isn't very well with the way his hand is shaped. One wonders how he's a driver at all.
  68. [2014-01-12 20:25:59] <Falconis> <Best make that two. And good luck to you as well>
  69. [2014-01-12 20:26:28] * Abram gives one last smile before hopping aboard the boat.
  70. [2014-01-12 20:26:44] <Falconis> The boat is silent as you step on, the telltale humming of life beneath your feet absent where it was present each time before
  71. [2014-01-12 20:27:13] <Falconis> and as you work the controls, you note a distinct lack of response, and unwillingness to move on it's part
  72. [2014-01-12 20:27:15] <Falconis> ...huh
  73. [2014-01-12 20:27:16] <Falconis> >_
  74. [2014-01-12 20:29:16] <Abram> "Uhh..."
  75. [2014-01-12 20:29:35] * Abram pauses for a moment before realizing the cause.
  76. [2014-01-12 20:29:51] <Abram> "...We need a new boat."
  77. [2014-01-12 20:30:52] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Is there a problem, Mr. Cameron?"
  78. [2014-01-12 20:32:29] <Abram> "This boat is... strange. It doesn't work conventionally, it needs a psychic to pilot it."
  79. [2014-01-12 20:32:40] <Abram> "And our psychic is dead now."
  80. [2014-01-12 20:32:59] <Falconis> Yuu frowns
  81. [2014-01-12 20:33:54] <Falconis> [Yuu]"That may explain why Bohai's men left it alone. But where are you going to find..."
  82. [2014-01-12 20:34:06] <Falconis> He glances at Jun
  83. [2014-01-12 20:34:13] <Falconis> Jun looks at him
  84. [2014-01-12 20:34:26] <Falconis> they look at each other for a minute
  85. [2014-01-12 20:35:03] <Falconis> Yuu sighs and Jun shrugs
  86. [2014-01-12 20:35:27] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Jun...has asked if he can take a look at it"
  87. [2014-01-12 20:35:50] <Abram> "Please do."
  88. [2014-01-12 20:36:22] <Falconis> The Gallade loosens his tie and walks up onto the deck
  89. [2014-01-12 20:36:24] <Falconis> and pauses
  90. [2014-01-12 20:37:52] <Falconis> 4d6+3
  91. [2014-01-12 20:37:53] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, 4d6+3: 18 [4d6=4,6,3,2]
  92. [2014-01-12 20:38:31] <Falconis> Jun frowns and steps towards the doors to the lower decks <Something is not quite r->
  93. [2014-01-12 20:39:03] <Falconis> With a sound like speakers exploding, Jun is blasted off his feet and over the edge of the boat
  94. [2014-01-12 20:39:16] <Falconis> 4d6+5
  95. [2014-01-12 20:39:17] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, 4d6+5: 19 [4d6=1,3,5,5]
  96. [2014-01-12 20:39:24] <Falconis> 4d6+3
  97. [2014-01-12 20:39:26] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, 4d6+3: 13 [4d6=1,5,1,3]
  98. [2014-01-12 20:40:14] =-= Dinah_China is now known as Dinah
  99. [2014-01-12 20:40:15] <Falconis> The boat shudders and the water ripples as if a depth charge was detonated
  100. [2014-01-12 20:40:27] <Falconis> roll acrobatics Abram/Dinah
  101. [2014-01-12 20:40:47] <Abram> 2d6 oh shit what did you do
  102. [2014-01-12 20:40:47] <DiceMaid-9001> Abram, oh shit what did you do: 10 [2d6=5,5]
  103. [2014-01-12 20:41:03] <Dinah> 3d6+5 I'm a fucking Ninja yo
  104. [2014-01-12 20:41:03] <DiceMaid-9001> Dinah, I'm a fucking Ninja yo: 21 [3d6=4,6,6]
  105. [2014-01-12 20:41:16] <Falconis> The boat rocks and shudders, but you both manage to keep your footing
  106. [2014-01-12 20:41:35] * Dinah backflips through the shuddering. Hyah!
  107. [2014-01-12 20:41:47] <Dinah> "So did Jun just break our ship?"
  108. [2014-01-12 20:42:01] <Abram> "Jun, are you alright?"
  109. [2014-01-12 20:42:13] <Falconis> The on board speakers crackle to life and a vaguely female voice comes across "Please leave the premises immediately. You are not the Doctor"
  110. [2014-01-12 20:42:24] <Falconis> <Groan>
  111. [2014-01-12 20:42:59] <Abram> "Shit."
  112. [2014-01-12 20:43:12] * Abram gets the fuck off the boat.
  113. [2014-01-12 20:43:13] <Falconis> [Boat?]"If you do not leave, I will be forced to remove you as I have done the psychic"
  114. [2014-01-12 20:43:57] <Falconis> Abram and Jay split the scene
  115. [2014-01-12 20:44:17] * Dinah raises a brow but hops off the boat
  116. [2014-01-12 20:44:27] <Dinah> "Well then, wanna bring us his corpse or something?"
  117. [2014-01-12 20:44:58] <Falconis> Jun clambers unto the dock, coughing out water
  118. [2014-01-12 20:45:12] <Falconis> <She is, uncooperative.>
  119. [2014-01-12 20:45:32] <Abram> <Then I'd get off the boat.>
  120. [2014-01-12 20:45:42] <Falconis> <I may have to break it to unlock the systems. Is that ok?>
  121. [2014-01-12 20:46:00] <Abram> <Not like we can use them otherwise. Go for it.>
  122. [2014-01-12 20:47:24] <Falconis> [Yuu]"If you need to leave it here, we might be able to do it slowly, but you will be denied your boat for the time being"
  123. [2014-01-12 20:47:33] <Falconis> Jun nods
  124. [2014-01-12 20:47:45] <Falconis> 4d6+3
  125. [2014-01-12 20:47:47] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, 4d6+3: 17 [4d6=3,1,4,6]
  126. [2014-01-12 20:47:47] <Falconis> 4d6+5
  127. [2014-01-12 20:47:49] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, 4d6+5: 21 [4d6=4,6,4,2]
  128. [2014-01-12 20:48:33] <Dinah> "Man, should we just throw a depth charge in the main cabin and be done with it?"
  129. [2014-01-12 20:48:42] <Falconis> Jun's chest glows and his eyes shimmer. The air grows weighty with psychic power...and he is swatted like a fly, falling into the water 5 meters away
  130. [2014-01-12 20:49:07] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Perhaps, if you don't mind damaging your ship"
  131. [2014-01-12 20:50:47] <Dinah> "Yuu, get me a bandolier of grenades then"
  132. [2014-01-12 20:50:53] <Dinah> "I'll take care of it"
  133. [2014-01-12 20:50:59] <Falconis> Jun swims to the top yet again, and clambers unto the docks
  134. [2014-01-12 20:51:19] <Falconis> [Yuu]"I...well I hope Jun has restocked the armoury"
  135. [2014-01-12 20:51:35] <Falconis> Yuu turns and lopes off towards the Limo and opens the trunk
  136. [2014-01-12 20:51:44] <Falconis> <Shall I wait then?>
  137. [2014-01-12 20:51:44] <Dinah> "A ship you can't use... should be sunk"
  138. [2014-01-12 20:53:21] <Falconis> Yuu walks back with a belt bearing two voltorb balls and hands it to Dinah
  139. [2014-01-12 20:54:31] <Dinah> "Hey Jun, anything specific i can aim at to leave the boat working? Or should I assume its time to trash it?"
  140. [2014-01-12 20:55:05] <Abram> "Hang on a moment. Do you think we can talk with... whatever it is?"
  141. [2014-01-12 20:55:51] <Falconis> Jun narrows his eyes <The core is under deck, below the steering area. I'm not sure if ti can be damaged by explosives without doing significant collateral>
  142. [2014-01-12 20:56:09] <Falconis> He nods <She will speak with me, but unless I have clearance she will not listen>
  143. [2014-01-12 20:56:34] <Abram> "Does she know that Neuros is dead?"
  144. [2014-01-12 20:56:55] <Falconis> Jun rubs his chest and spits out some murky water <She does not seem to understand such things>
  145. [2014-01-12 20:57:10] <Abram> "I guess we don't have a choice then."
  146. [2014-01-12 20:57:13] <Falconis> <It is very simple, like...a child>
  147. [2014-01-12 20:57:23] <Falconis> <Or a stubborn adult>
  148. [2014-01-12 20:57:28] <Falconis> <Or a fool>
  149. [2014-01-12 20:58:38] <Falconis> >_
  150. [2014-01-12 21:01:32] <Dinah> "Well do you think it can be dealt with? Psychic things aren't my forte"
  151. [2014-01-12 21:02:42] <Falconis> [Jun]<I could destroy the mind. This would deny you it's benefits however.>
  152. [2014-01-12 21:02:55] <Falconis> <And I suppose, it's troubles>
  153. [2014-01-12 21:03:31] <Dinah> "Can you put us in contact with it? Perhaps it will recognize us?"
  154. [2014-01-12 21:05:03] <Falconis> Jun slowly shakes his head <I...I am more of a fighting type, I'm afraid certain things are beyond me in this>
  155. [2014-01-12 21:05:29] <Falconis> <I have tried to explain your presence to it, but it does not seem to care>
  156. [2014-01-12 21:06:21] <Dinah> "... Yuu. You're our commanding Officer for the duration of this mission. Orders?"
  157. [2014-01-12 21:06:57] <Abram> <A soldier at heart, I see.> Abram shakes his head. "If you don't have another ship for us to use, we should just bust the mind."
  158. [2014-01-12 21:07:30] <Dinah> "Yea, thats my vote too..... I don't really want to deal with the fall out of deciding that though"
  159. [2014-01-12 21:09:08] <Falconis> Yuu blinks in surprise at his unexpected inclusion in this decision "Well, this is your ship, you can break it if you desire I suppose. On the matter of another ship, no I don't have one, but I can arrange for a seaplane to carry you back to camp Khangiskan if you so desire."
  160. [2014-01-12 21:09:41] <Falconis> "Perhaps some other psychics can manage this over time, but I doubt I'd have it ready for you before you are sent out again"
  161. [2014-01-12 21:10:07] <Falconis> "If Jun broke...this mind. I assume you'd have your boat to return with"
  162. [2014-01-12 21:10:14] <Falconis> "Still, this remains your decision"
  163. [2014-01-12 21:10:51] * Dinah pats him on the shoulder with a smile that says you dun fucked up "Good, we have the commanding officers approval to take it into our own hands. Not my problem if the general dislikes our solution"
  164. [2014-01-12 21:11:03] <Falconis> Yuu frowns
  165. [2014-01-12 21:11:06] <Dinah> "I vote we blow the mind Abram, you?"
  166. [2014-01-12 21:11:36] <Abram> "...Wouldn't seaplane be faster?"
  167. [2014-01-12 21:13:24] * Dinah thinks about it and pouts, one could almost see she likely just wanted to blow it up for the fun of it.
  168. [2014-01-12 21:13:29] <Dinah> "Alright, Seaplane it is"
  169. [2014-01-12 21:14:22] <Falconis> Jun nods and walks back towards the Limo, squeezing water out of his hat
  170. [2014-01-12 21:15:21] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Very well, I'll have to arrange for some kind of guard to watch this till I can arrange for the GARD's to take a look at this"
  171. [2014-01-12 21:15:50] <Dinah> "Thanks Yuu"
  172. [2014-01-12 21:15:57] <Falconis> Yuu slides back into the limo as Jun just gives up and strips off his shirt and pants altogether, remaining only in pink heart boxers
  173. [2014-01-12 21:15:58] * Dinah reluctantly returns the Voltorbs
  174. [2014-01-12 21:16:26] * Abram looks at Jun and chuckles before hopping back into the limo.
  175. [2014-01-12 21:16:28] * Dinah tilts her head absently and lets out a teasing whistle. She IS a 'soldier'.
  176. [2014-01-12 21:16:31] <Falconis> [Yuu]"Don't thank me yet" he takes the voltorbs and tosses them back in the trunk "I'll be sending you the bill"
  177. [2014-01-12 21:16:59] <Falconis> Jun's chest glows and he slides into the drivers seat
  178. [2014-01-12 21:17:04] <Falconis> ONWARDS
  179. [2014-01-12 21:18:03] <Falconis> Yuu takes you to another port town, about an hour south of your current location, chatting into his persian's face all the time while the catty pokemon stares at him with blank white eyes
  180. [2014-01-12 21:19:09] <Falconis> The port you end up in is big and suspiciously clean for a public location. A blue and white seaplane with Pelliper eyes on the side gleams on the ocean
  181. [2014-01-12 21:19:16] <Falconis> *twinkle twinkle sparkle*
  182. [2014-01-12 21:21:11] * Dinah says nothing though it is far too cute for her
  183. [2014-01-12 21:21:38] <Falconis> Jun lets you out by the port, but remains inside the vehicle this time, something about things being embarrasing
  184. [2014-01-12 21:22:05] <Abram> "Works for me."
  185. [2014-01-12 21:22:24] <Falconis> Yuu hops out and walks down to where the seaplane is located and talks to the pilot. He hands him a giant stack of bills and the pilot pockets it with a smirk [PILOT]"Alright, lets get this show on the road"
  186. [2014-01-12 21:23:47] * Dinah lifts her bag onto her shoulder, heading for the seaplane as told
  187. [2014-01-12 21:25:32] * Abram gives a wave to the two as he heads for the plane.
  188. [2014-01-12 21:25:32] <Falconis> The pilot is a dark skinned man with a full, dark beard. He wears a blue Hawaiian shirt and white pants and shoes. The distinctive scent of ODDISH CIGARS surrounds him
  189. [2014-01-12 21:25:39] <Falconis> yall get on?
  190. [2014-01-12 21:25:45] <Abram> Let's fly.
  191. [2014-01-12 21:26:18] <Dinah> yup
  192. [2014-01-12 21:26:24] <Falconis> LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
  193. [2014-01-12 21:26:53] <Falconis> The plane starts up, purring like a kitten and you head off into the distance as Yuu waves at you from the docks
  194. [2014-01-12 21:27:34] <Falconis> The pilot fills your trip with raucous stories about bar misadventures and fighting stray flying types in a storm
  195. [2014-01-12 21:28:33] <Falconis> but in short order, the stories come to a stop and the pilot shows a brief moment of seriousness as he radios the base for clearance. Clearance is had and he lands smoothly in the Harbour outside Camp Khangiskan, sliding into place where normally you would park a boat.
  196. [2014-01-12 21:28:51] <Falconis> He waves at you and hands out...
  197. [2014-01-12 21:28:55] <Falconis> 1d4 cigars
  198. [2014-01-12 21:28:55] <DiceMaid-9001> Falconis, cigars: 4 [1d4=4]
  199. [2014-01-12 21:29:02] <Falconis> before taking off
  200. [2014-01-12 21:29:23] <Falconis> YOU ARE AT CAMP KHANGISKAN
  201. [2014-01-12 21:29:28] <Falconis> wat do
  202. [2014-01-12 21:31:31] * Abram opts for a cigarette instead, and he lights up as he heads to meet General Hao.
  203. [2014-01-12 21:31:56] * Dinah heads to the general
  204. [2014-01-12 21:32:06] <Falconis> The military base seems the same as when you left it. Soldiers come and go at a steady pace, though the only person you see at the moment is a lone soldier scrubbing the landers
  205. [2014-01-12 21:33:02] <Falconis> You head towards the meeting room that adjoins Hao's office and enter, finding the General perusing some notes. He looks up as you arrive and sets his papers down, a dark scowl crossing his features
  206. [2014-01-12 21:33:48] <Falconis> [Hao]"Ah, you're here. I was just looking over Diplomat Yuu's report. How about you tell me what happened"
  207. [2014-01-12 21:35:11] <Abram> "It was a mess. The Russian diplomat was already planning a coup with the Chinese Vice Chancellor. We got dropped right into it."
  208. [2014-01-12 21:35:24] =-= Gents is now known as Ontario
  209. [2014-01-12 21:35:58] <Dinah> "Diplomatic relationships were broken down by the time we got there, Sir!"
  210. [2014-01-12 21:36:10] <Abram> "They used us as a scapegoat before going ahead with their plans. It took us a couple days, but we managed to expose them to the Empress."
  211. [2014-01-12 21:37:26] <Dinah> "Sadly they had turned several major generals to their side, so though China is now on our side, in return they are suffering civil war"
  212. [2014-01-12 21:41:17] <Falconis> [Hao]"I see, we will have to discuss this in more detail later"
  213. [2014-01-12 21:43:02] <Falconis> "But for now, let me introduce you to your new team member. Diplomat Yuu's report stated Neuros had perished, so I guess he came right in time. Meet Vince Otter, better knows as 'Onatario'. A Canadian elite that wound up on Japan after some Russian skirmishes."
  214. [2014-01-12 21:44:11] <Falconis> "I'll let him explain the specifics if he desires. In the meantime, you have the rest of the day to deal with any other matters you wish to attend to while I sort out this China mess. "
  215. [2014-01-12 21:44:36] <Falconis> "You are to report to briefing tomorrow at O' six hundred."
  216. [2014-01-12 21:45:03] <Dinah> "Sir, yes Sir!"
  217. [2014-01-12 21:45:06] * Dinah salutes
  218. [2014-01-12 21:46:18] * Abram gives a salute.
  219. [2014-01-12 21:54:07] <Falconis> ENTER ONTARIO
  220. [2014-01-12 21:54:30] * Ontario ENTERS
  221. [2014-01-12 21:54:40] <Ontario> "Hiyader, eh?"
  222. [2014-01-12 21:57:51] <Abram> "Yep, definitely a Canadian." Abram extends a hand. "Welcome aboard. I'm Abram Cameron."
  223. [2014-01-12 21:59:20] <Ontario> "I'm Captain Vincent Otter, or Captain Ontario, eh?" He shakes the hand with fervor. "I heard about your work, eh? Photography?"
  224. [2014-01-12 22:00:36] <Abram> "Among other things, yes. Photojournalist."
  225. [2014-01-12 22:01:04] <Abram> "So, how'd you end up out here Captain?"
  226. [2014-01-12 22:01:24] <Ontario> "Nice, my brother took up that photography, dontchano?" He nods and the looks at Abram. "Same way you did, eh? Was drafted"
  227. [2014-01-12 22:04:59] <Ontario> he shrugs, looking at Abram. "Never know eh?"
  228. [2014-01-12 22:06:50] <Ontario> "Oh.... Did you mean how I got here? Sorry, eh?"
  229. [2014-01-12 22:07:33] * Abram blinks a couple times. "Uhh, no need to apologize. That's what I meant though, yeah."
  230. [2014-01-12 22:10:03] <Ontario> "Oh uh.... Well I was fighting in Russia when I was basically taken a POW, dontchaknow. I somehow managed to escape by using a stool top and rescued a few other soldiers before help arrived dontchaknow." He taps his shield. "It's in there, eh?"
  231. [2014-01-12 22:14:37] <Dinah> "Uh huh.... Names Dinah. Nice to meetcha Ontario"
  232. [2014-01-12 22:17:11] <Ontario> "Same toya Dinah, eh?"
  233. [2014-01-12 22:18:08] <Dinah> "Yup. Sounds like a useful stool at least"
  234. [2014-01-12 22:26:47] <Falconis> With the introductions over, you all move on to your own things
  235. [2014-01-12 22:27:39] <Falconis> Time passes, the beds in camp Khangiskan are nowhere near as nice as the ones in the imperial palace, even the small servant ones Yu shoved into his office there. But sleep comes as sleep comes.
  236. [2014-01-12 22:27:55] <Falconis> And if soldiers are good at one thing, it's knowing when to catch their sleep
  237. [2014-01-12 22:29:07] <Falconis> The next day dawns, the sun peeking over the horizon as if it wonders if it's okay to rise yet. It won't be long until it gets brave enough to start it's journey, so you better get going too.
  238. [2014-01-12 22:29:54] <Falconis> The team meets in the meeting room adjoining Hao's office as usual, Hao and Cue already at their places in the front.
  239. [2014-01-12 22:31:21] * Dinah salutes and stands opposite the general and professor
  240. [2014-01-12 22:31:42] <Falconis> The large map on the blackboard now bears several more Plusle and Minun pins in China and western europe. It seems the russians have been advancing steadily. But at least now you have China on your side
  241. [2014-01-12 22:31:44] <Falconis> ...sort of
  242. [2014-01-12 22:32:03] <Falconis> Hao salutes in return, and Cue nods and smiles
  243. [2014-01-12 22:32:09] * Abram stands in his usual spot, looking at the map closely.
  244. [2014-01-12 22:34:07] <Falconis> Hao brushes the front of his uniform and begins speaking [Hao]"Good morning elites, I hope you rested well, because the situation grows more dire by the second"
  245. [2014-01-12 22:34:57] <Falconis> "These are the major areas that could use your edge at the moment, I will present them and the Doctor will provide information you may need as we continue"
  246. [2014-01-12 22:35:15] * Ontario is there as well, looking sharp
  247. [2014-01-12 22:37:55] <Falconis> He begins by pointing to the Eastern coast in china, a bit north of your landing position [Hao]"Port Arthur has yet to be breached, though more intel has been acquired. As you encountered, the Russians are policing the bay area, effectively blocking off any sea aid from or to the eastern Chinese area. Their influence has grown and many native pokemon have been driven out, making a lot of...
  248. [2014-01-12 22:37:55] <Falconis> ...trouble for people that live nearby"
  249. [2014-01-12 22:38:56] |<-- Dinah has left irc.thisisnotatrueending.com (Ping timeout)
  250. [2014-01-12 22:39:06] <Falconis> "Admiral Boris Kuslav is in charge of this base. An Ice pokemon specialist and a veteran of several battles in the frozen north"
  251. [2014-01-12 22:39:54] -->| Dinah (Milanda@sux-2B46D35E.ph.ph.cox.net) has joined #pokeredwar
  252. [2014-01-12 22:41:54] <Falconis> "He seems to have several Elites with him, also Ice pokemon specialists with skills on par with yours. The Lieutenant Roman you encountered is among them. "
  253. [2014-01-12 22:43:04] <Falconis> "While they are ice pokemon specialists, they have all been known to have a wide variety of mon on them. This mission is difficult, if it is not taken I may have to lead a detachment myself to stop this area from becoming a problem"
  254. [2014-01-12 22:43:07] <Falconis> "NEXT"
  255. [2014-01-12 22:43:14] <Falconis> Cue clears his throat
  256. [2014-01-12 22:43:31] * Dinah stays quiet though her interest is quirked
  257. [2014-01-12 22:44:51] <Falconis> [Cue]"Before you continue general, Port Arthur was known for being a source for excellent water and ground pokemon before it was taken by the Russians. It is possible that they may have captured incubation equipment as well and may be breeding more forces for themselves. If you do go here, I'd ask you to try and retrieve this equipment entact"
  258. [2014-01-12 22:45:10] <Falconis> Hao nods and then moves to the next location, pointing to a spot a bit north of that
  259. [2014-01-12 22:46:21] <Falconis> "The trans siberian railway allows the Russians to quickly move troops to any side of the continient they need, and with no shortage of steelix, this is an advantage they cannot be allowed to keep for much longer, or fighting them will be like facing an endless wave of enemies."
  260. [2014-01-12 22:47:36] <Falconis> "We wish to capture a Steelix station here, on the Russian owned coastline and appropriate it for our own uses. With it we can send our men deeper into their territory without needing to march or fly them. Logistically it is a very important target"
  261. [2014-01-12 22:48:48] <Falconis> "If it cannot be captured" He moves his hand west along the line " A bridge where the steelix must surface is in this area. If the bridge is destroyed we can cut off their support and clean up the eastern coast. However this is sub optimal as we would much rather to take this resource for ourselves"
  262. [2014-01-12 22:49:31] <Falconis> He sticks a Minun pin in the map and pulls a string down across mongolia into china, and to the eastern coast
  263. [2014-01-12 22:50:01] <Falconis> "If these targets are taken we can easily triple the effectiveness and speed of our forces in a wide area"
  264. [2014-01-12 22:50:25] <Falconis> He goes north of the pin on the bridge, to point to a cubchoo pin
  265. [2014-01-12 22:50:27] <Falconis> "NEXT"
  266. [2014-01-12 22:51:31] * Ontario blinks a bit and nods
  267. [2014-01-12 22:51:46] <Falconis> "General Lei of the Chinese Army has provided us with Intelligence which gives evidence of a Russian Base here of significant size. A deep infiltration mission to strike at this location would deny the Russian army a source of reinforcements and help our western offensive."
  268. [2014-01-12 22:53:21] <Falconis> "This mission is made much more dangerous by the presence of the Steelix line, however launching an offensive now would give us the element of surprise. This would likely be a stealth based mission for as long as possible. Your goal top sabotage supplies and to capture or kill any weather manipulation pokemon"
  269. [2014-01-12 22:53:30] <Falconis> [Cue]"or Poketech"
  270. [2014-01-12 22:53:58] <Falconis> [Hao]"...or Poketech you can get your hands on, as well as the elimination of any high level target at your discretion"
  271. [2014-01-12 22:54:02] <Falconis> "NEXT"
  272. [2014-01-12 22:54:12] <Falconis> He smacks a hand on western Europe
  273. [2014-01-12 22:55:03] <Falconis> "The main russian offensive has picked up speed, Austria has fallen to the Beartic Cavalry and they seem poised to move south next before capitulating"
  274. [2014-01-12 22:56:17] <Falconis> "Your mission if you choose to take it, would be to report to the French Commander Gerald Pierrot and assist his forces in launching a counter offensive"
  275. [2014-01-12 22:56:59] <Falconis> [Cue]"The German-Russian Alliance uses a rather sigificant amount of poketech in their operations, if you can retrieve any samples, I may be able to upgrade our own equipment"
  276. [2014-01-12 22:57:56] * Ontario nods. "Can do?"
  277. [2014-01-12 22:58:21] <Falconis> [Hao]"These are the areas that would benefit most from your directed attention at the moment. Take a moment to decide among yourselves what you would wish to take on"
  278. [2014-01-12 22:59:06] <Falconis> >_
  279. [2014-01-12 22:59:41] <Abram> "I feel like we should focus on Port Arthur or the Trans-Siberian Railway. Dealing with either of them would make our lives easier."
  280. [2014-01-12 23:00:21] <Dinah> ".... I vote we take on Port Arthur first. If its so bad even Hao is considering taking it out"
  281. [2014-01-12 23:01:06] <Ontario> "We should handle the port then eh?"
  282. [2014-01-12 23:01:15] <Abram> "Why not both? We could deal with the Railway, and General Hao can lead a detachment against Port Arthur."
  283. [2014-01-12 23:01:44] * Abram looks over to the general. "Assuming you're okay with that, of course."
  284. [2014-01-12 23:02:40] <Falconis> [Hao]"I would prefer it if I didn't have to direct my focus to a single thing, but if I must, I will."
  285. [2014-01-12 23:03:28] <Dinah> "I'd rather the General do what he does best, I've been itching to take out the port since you guys outvoted me to 'peacefully settle things in China', wasn't it?"
  286. [2014-01-12 23:04:06] <Abram> "Then let's take the port." Abram intentionally ignores Dinah's comment.
  287. [2014-01-12 23:04:21] <Ontario> "The port eh? But what about the railway..."
  288. [2014-01-12 23:09:00] <Falconis> Cue clears his throat
  289. [2014-01-12 23:10:48] * Dinah waits on the other two
  290. [2014-01-12 23:11:22] <Falconis> Jay fiddles with his hat
  291. [2014-01-12 23:11:37] <Abram> "It can wait for now. We'll take the port first, then handle the railway."
  292. [2014-01-12 23:12:41] <Dinah> "Seems like we're headed for the Port Then"
  293. [2014-01-12 23:13:16] <Falconis> Hao nods and draws a line from the base to the Port
  294. [2014-01-12 23:14:05] <Ontario> "Fine. Take the port eh? Sorry for disagree..."
  295. [2014-01-12 23:14:07] <Falconis> "Port Arthur it is then. You can take your boat around to the Laotung peninsula with a detachment of soldiers if you desire"
  296. [2014-01-12 23:14:50] <Dinah> "Yea about that, Neuros broke our boat as he died. Yuu is working on repairs"
  297. [2014-01-12 23:14:55] * Ontario salutes. "Yes sir!"
  298. [2014-01-12 23:15:43] <Falconis> Hao scowls
  299. [2014-01-12 23:16:12] <Falconis> "Hmm, well I suppose you can take a lander then. It's a bit slower but you'll have to make due"
  300. [2014-01-12 23:16:34] <Ontario> "Someone broke... the ship?"
  301. [2014-01-12 23:16:35] <Dinah> "Yes Sir!"
  302. [2014-01-12 23:17:12] <Falconis> [Cue]"By the way, Miss Dinah, may I see your sword?"
  303. [2014-01-12 23:17:26] <Dinah> ".... Which one?"
  304. [2014-01-12 23:18:00] <Falconis> "The Cursed blade, please"
  305. [2014-01-12 23:18:33] * Dinah draws it with a shrug, giving it a light spin before handing it blade first to the prof'
  306. [2014-01-12 23:19:08] <Falconis> He looks at the blade
  307. [2014-01-12 23:19:18] <Falconis> and glances up at you
  308. [2014-01-12 23:19:26] <Falconis> "On the table there, please"
  309. [2014-01-12 23:19:55] * Dinah shrugs laying it down on the table
  310. [2014-01-12 23:21:40] <Falconis> Cue nods, and proceeds to poke it with his pen, which disintegrates on contact
  311. [2014-01-12 23:21:57] <Falconis> He murmurs something and makes a note, pulling out a spare pen from his jacket
  312. [2014-01-12 23:22:11] * Dinah sweatdrops at the pen literally disintegrating
  313. [2014-01-12 23:22:53] <Falconis> "There has been some progress, but not as much as I expected. Still, this is looking very hopeful. I hope you can unseal it with time Miss Dinah. Thank you for your assistance"
  314. [2014-01-12 23:23:02] <Falconis> he pushes the handle back towards you and steps back
