Ravyn: Ahh,
the South Sea Seaport. The northernmost point of the Waterfront docks, it's home
to the century-old Fulton Fish Market. Today, we find ourselves walking along
the market, which is also host to many other quaint little shops and cafes. It's
a nice, bright, sunny Sunday.
: ((damm. whom to play))
Douglas Coburn: He strides along the
waterfront, cane clicking in time with his heavy limp. The smell of the fish
market is horrific, and, as such, he suspects these fishies are not as fresh as
some sellers claim. He pauses, blinking owlishly at a particularly
diseased-looking pile of Spat.
: ((bleh is it open?))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((Arlett doenst
come this time of twon that much)) *the lady was making it out of a shop, little
bag in hand*
Ravyn:
((Absolutely open))
Abbey Randelle: *she's certaintly not
looking for fish.. that much is clear, sunlight muted by the violently red
spectacles perched on a delicate nose, the vision in white strides purposefully
away from the fish, nose crinkling slightly*
Tansy "Sunburst": She looks tired, what else is new, but
she figured that a walk might be a good thing for the time being, Quaffle walks
beside her ever alert.
Tansy "Sunburst": There aren't any words 80 characters
long. I am a leadfingered bonehead!
: ((damn dont think i have a char to suit this scene))
Tansy "Sunburst": She seems to stand out, despite her 5'2"
height, her slender, dancers body is nicely rounded in all of the right places.
Her short curly black hair seems to frame her face, giving her a sultry look.
Her violet eyes hold a twinkle of mystery to them, framed by long thick lashes
and perfectly sculpted eyebrows. Her full pouty lips tend to always hold a
smile. She has an Eastern Eurpoean lookto her features which seem to be
empasized, by her beauty. She has seceral ear piercings that do not detract from
her appearance, only adding a new twist to it. She is wearing a loosly fitting
denium jumper with a bright saphire blue t-shirt under neath, a p[air of sandals
on her feet.((App 4, Arcane 1))
Douglas Coburn: He starts off again. Fish.
Ergh. Fish. Who eats fish?
Abbey Randelle: *dear god. the sooner she
gets out of this area of town the better, but she required a new net, or
at least so said the huge bruise down her spine from where the other had broken.
and as such.. the smell and atmosphere must be tolerated. a bit of nothing is
swept from her coat deftly*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *not the lady
was just wlaking purposedly on, green eyes looking around intently*
Tansy "Sunburst": She puts a hand to her nose as the smell
of fish hits her as she walks along, pausing for a second before continuing to
walk.
Douglas Coburn: He nudges his glasses a
little further up his nose, blinking and altering course, limping toward
Dragana.
Abbey Randelle: *if she wasn't mistaken
for an albino before, the sunglasses certaintly don't help dispell the image.
tiny glaringly red rectangles made more noticable by the fact that.. aside from
two tiny rubies in an engagement ring, they are the only actual color on the
pale creature. she slips into a store*
Tansy "Sunburst": She looks to Quaffle. "Yopu are enjoying
this way too much." breath in through mouth....seesh what in the world made her
thi9ng to come here of all places.
Terry O'Brian: *wanders through the fish market, his
random walk of the day having taken him out to this area.*
Ravyn: As
everyone makes their way through the various parts of the market, a man walks
down the street. He's of average height, Arabic in skin, dressed in a white
T-Shirt, leather jacket, and jeans. Seems fairly casual-looking...if not for the
fact that he appears to be walking with an unusual directness.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *she doens't
seem to notice at first, until he is close, then her eyes move, fixing on
Douglas, smirks* afternoon sir
Douglas Coburn: He nods slightly, falling
into step beside her. "Good afternoon, ma'am."
Tansy "Sunburst": Tansy keeps a finger under her nose as
not to breath in the fishy smell as she wanders someof the booths/shops walking
and peering at things some randome some not. Quaffle eyes the fish greedily.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *and yes, there
is that unnatural warmth around her when he gets close* I see you are well this
day
Ravyn:
((Color change for sanity))
Abbey Randelle: *a moments soft discussion
with the storekeep about her order. ..... irritation growing as she repeats her
name and the nature of the order, only to find out they'd forgotten to
fashion her net. a glacially polite smile as she reminds them of the specs
again, and the price she's willing to pay to have it made precisely as
requested*
Terry O'Brian: *looks at the fish being sold on the
street, and starts looking to see what the best price he can find is, perhaps
he'll be able to find something cheaper here than near home*
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: There aren't any
words 80 characters long. I am a leadfingered bonehead!
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((errr...))
Douglas Coburn: He nods slightly. "An'
yoahself, ma'am. Ah'm pleased to see it."
Ravyn: The
man continues his way down the street, brushing by Dragana and Douglas with
little more then a fairly cultured British-accented "Pardon me." He continues
on, on a course to intercept Tansy and the cat.
Abbey Randelle: *and she slips from the
store in something of a ~mood~. made no better by the unsanitary FISH outside.
ugh. a near inaudible sigh as the pristine girl glances for the safest non-fishy
route back to her car*
Abbey Randelle:
7,9,6,9,
Douglas Coburn: He steps neatly aside,
pausing to turn and regard the departing rude gentleman. Even so, he can't quite
help himself, and murmurs in return "That's quite all right, sir."
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *and an eye
brow lifts as the man brushes past* my.. New York can afect people
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *lookign agian to Doug* well thank you *a faint smile*
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *A cute teen
girl with a pale complexion, walks along the small shops just really exploring
the city now that she final has some cash of her own. She stands just under
average height with a trim petite frame with just enough curves in the right
places. Wearing a purple plaid pleat mini skirt, fishnet stockings cover her
legs, with a pair of black short tomb buckle boots. A purple cropped baby tee
with "I’M A BAD GIRL" emblazoned on it just under this in smaller letters is
“You should spank me”, exposing her midriff and bellybutton ring. Short raven
black hair hangs just past her chin, dyed with red, blue, blond and purple
streaks. Around her neck is a black velvet choker, with a silver pentacle
hanging from it resting in the hollow of her throat. A cigarette can often be
found dangling between her blood red adorned lips. Thick black eye liner and red
eyeshadow, brings out her brilliantly bright green eyes. A litle black purse
hangs from one shoulder.* (( App 4 for picture go to... well just go to the
gallery page and look it up yourself since the chat won't let me post the link
:op ))
Douglas Coburn: 6ft tall, with short,
curly red hair and delicate pale skin, mid-blue eyes set in an angular but
deeply average face, half-shrouded by unrimmed glasses that perpetually sit on
his straight nose. He looks to be about twenty-six years of age. His accent is
an odd mix of South Carolina drawl and New York quickspeak with a dash of
Oxfordian thrown into the mix somewhere. He looks to be of average build,
perhaps just a little on the slim side of normal, and favours neat, tidy suits
that hang perfectly and complement his complexion. He walks with the aid of a
plain cane.
Samantha Jacobs:
3,2,2,6,6,4,6,
: ((is the scene still open?))
Abbey Randelle: *grey eyes flick over
Dragana and Douglas, then follow the hurrying man towards Tansy, her ire piquing
once she sees the girl is out and about when she is being hunted by a
marauder .*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: The woman looks
to be in her late teens or early twenties, ad she could probably have passed by
someone beautiful but wryness and God’ knows what has let a trail in her young
features. Her green eyes are severe, though there is a trail of distraction in
there, constantly changing from full awareness to what surrounds her to a vague
dozing of into unknown thoughts. Her dark red hair could fall freely in long
curls until reach her hips if not were for the pins and stuff on it that keeps
it high over her head. Wearing cargo pants, a tight shirt that embraces her
frame, dark colours, traveller’s boots and a long brownish/red trench coat. Her
height hardly going to the 5’ but despite the shortness, she posses a tough
built, of someone used to keep in form. A medallion hangs at her chest,
representing a curling dragon and a plain, silver brand of ring adorns her left
hand. She walks, carrying herself with the confidence of someone who knows the
grown she steps on. http://www.geocities.com/furygodess/Elaine.html
Tansy "Sunburst": Some things catch her fancy but she
really doesn't seem to actually want to buy anything. She glares at the cat as
he eyes some of the fish. She rolls her eyes looking skyward for a moment.
Ravyn:
((Dragana and Douglas, roll Per+Alertness))
Terry O'Brian: DD>The first thing that can be noticed is
the hair. Unevenly cut, and rather shaggy, it looks like it may be blonde, but
it’s dirty enough that even that much is uncertain. He has a well-formed face,
though. If he cleaned himself up, he could be fairly attractive. His clothing is
rather ratty, there are enough holes in it that even on some spring and early
summer nights, he must get no warmth from them. Rather short, and thin, he looks
to be about 16 or 17, though shorter than most people that age. Though overall,
he deflects the eye, there is one thing that draws it: his unfailingly friendly
smile. (Arcane 2)
Samantha Jacobs: She moves down the
street, eyes flicking over people. Maybe her gaze is drawn to the Arab out of
habit, maybe its just because he walks with a stride most New Yorkers don't
have. But her eyes narrow slightly.
Ravyn: ((Open
still, yes. *S*))
Douglas Coburn: He quirks an eyebrow in
curiosity. Glances to Dragana, then to the rude gentleman again. "He seemed in
quite ah hurry," he murmurs.
Douglas Coburn:
7,2,4,2,7,7,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *the lady
doens't know Tansy, nor was she informed of the she being the target of the
crasy man, she keeps walking pleasanty with Doug*((ergs.. does she recognsise
the mad man though?))
Ravyn:
7,4,4,10,5,6,
Douglas Coburn: ((Doug's stopped walking,
Dragana))
Abbey Randelle: *the thin albino makes
towards Tansy at a rapid pace, ice fairly chipping around her. was it polite to
violently slap someone?*
Ravyn -> Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
((No, she doesn't, 'cause it's not the Marauder.
*S*))
Samantha Jacobs: She starts to move on
an intercept course. Yes, the gun is on her. When isn't it?
Dragana Messánie Lindonar -> Ravyn:
oki!
Abbey Randelle: ***Standing 5'6, Abby is
beyond graceful, sliding like a ghost from place to place, each movement
purposeful and smooth. At 18 years, She's thin and lithe, built like a gymnast,
with long slender legs and a willowy frame, contrasted by a thick white woolen
overcoat, that hangs just above the knees of white satin pants, tailored
perfectly. Her hair is fashioned into a wispy pageboy, or bob, and from under
the shockingly white mass of thin strands stare two unwavering grey eyes, icy,
and set into a pale triangular face. The only real color of note is that of her
lips, which curl up in the corners as though she's enjoying some private joke.
She's a picture of purity and class, voice never above a murmer. (app4-pure)***
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *or halts,
glancing once to Dougls, then at the man*dare you acuqanted?
Terry O'Brian: *bah. still too expensive. perhaps over
there? he starts walking in the direction where Tansy is, glancing at the
prices, waiting for them to go down a bit more*
Ravyn:
((Dragana. Roll Per+Alertness.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: (not dare))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
5,10,4,8,9,
Ravyn:
Dragana doesn't seem to notice, but Douglas just manages to catch the Arabic man
slip something into the hot woman's (pun intended) pocket as he brushes by.
Warren Cole: The giant black man leaves
the streets and enters the heady aroma of fishguts that the waterfront appears
to thrive on, he looks over the crowds he sees, its always nice and busy, and
the heat of the suns got those fishguts nice and odiferous.
Tansy "Sunburst": Tansy yawns and realizes that was a
mistake, she is too tired to notice the stir she is causing.
Douglas Coburn: ((How does that work? I
got three 7's, she got an 8, 9 and a 10.))
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *is so totally
obviously she doesn't even notice the low hanging sign from one of the shops and
walks into it hitting her head. Followed by a string of some cuss words and
rubbing of her head*
Ravyn: The
man continues on his course toward Tansy, coming within about a quater block,
his hand straying to his jacket pocket as he walks along.
Samantha Jacobs: "Tansy." Comes the rough
voice from behind the younger woman as long legs take her quickly.
Abbey Randelle: MIss Tansy *she murmers as
she approaches from in front of her, in a voice like cold steel slipped in
satin..* A word... if you might?
Douglas Coburn: He blinks owlishly at
Dragana. "Ah think he jus' slipped you a note."
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((err obviously
should be oblivious))
Ravyn: ((I
thought I saw 4 successes, Douglas. My bad.)) ALTER: Neither of quite catch it.
Douglas Coburn: ((DLP then))
Abbey Randelle: *she looks up, hearing sam.
a polite smile to the woman, white creature defrosting slightly as she inclines
her head to the military woman*
Terry O'Brian: *he continues in that direction...hey, is
that Sam? He gives a cheerful wave, and suppresses his arcane*
Douglas Coburn: And now everyone's
converging on the young lady with the cat. He blinks at Dragana again, a kind of
"shall we?" look in his gaze.
Tansy "Sunburst": She blinks at Abbey and Sam as they both
approach her, damn was her 'do not see me' not up? "Ummmm hey." she says tiredly
to them both.
Ravyn: As
people approach Tansy, the man frowns deeply. He continues on his course,
though, eyes scanning over those who've approached the pregant woman, as if
appraising them tactically.
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: * standing their
rubbing her sore head and giving the sign a dirty look like it jumped out and
hit her. Mummbles to herself* Should have just stayed in bed this afternoon.
Samantha Jacobs: She inclines her head to
Abbey, understanding the french socialite would probably agree with her. She
misses Terry's wave, looking down at Tansy. "You shouldn't be out alone." She
mutters to Tansy, eyes flicking up to the man. Apprasing him much as he
apprasises them.
Warren Cole: Hes heading straight through
the crowd, he knows theres a guy up at the water who sometimes gets good
mackerel now and then, mackerel and banana.. thats what he wants.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *she shrugs*
are you bored? or jsut curious *grinning, she done'st know the girl, nothing
happend, is the same for her*
Terry O'Brian: *must not have seen him, he heads on
over towards Sam to say hi*
Douglas Coburn: "Curious," he replies, and
starts limping slowly toward Tansy.
Warren Cole: ((anyone who needs dd pm me))
Abbey Randelle: Miss tansy. Might I as you
as to what precisely you are doing, you are indisposed. *she murmers politely,
head tilting slightly as though she's genuinely interested, eyes saying other
wise as she drops colder than Alaska*
Ravyn:
((Warren and anyone else on the outskirts of the scene, give me a Per+Alertness))
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones:
2,1,7,4,3,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *chuckles,
shruing for now allowing herself after Douglas, with just a glance to Abbey when
she is close, then the girl they are all hobbering around*
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((GAH...))
Tansy "Sunburst": Okay so that 'I am not walking alone'
thing would not be a good thing to bring up cause well Quaffle wasn't really
included in their thinking She nods her head. "I.." oh hell she sighs. "I
know." dejectdly she says this.
Ravyn:
((Which would be those not near or specifically approaching Tansy.))
Warren Cole:
10,7,2,8,7,
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *still giving the
sign a dirty look she starts walking along the shops and bumps into a guy,
stumbling a step, gives a polite oppolgetice smile.* Excuss me. *then moves
around him with a sigh rubbing her head... defently turning out to be a crappy
day*
Warren Cole: Radar the giant is today, he
straight away spots his fish man.. and ..
Samantha Jacobs: She nods as Tansy seems
to realize her error. "Let's get out of here for now then." Another nod to
Abbey. Of course Abbey's right.
Abbey Randelle: Ah. *a thin white eyebrow
raising.* Yes. I beleive that would be wise. *she murmers softly, an inclination
of her head to sam.*
Tansy "Sunburst": Oh hell Abbey knows as well. her
shoulders slump. "I needed a walk." she says to Abbey.
Ravyn: Roxy
noticing nothing...must have been the late night out last night and the rum and
coke. Warren, on the other hand, notices two of those infamous, ominous black
cars pull up, and four similarly-dressed men in suits get out.
Terry O'Brian: *and he arrives at the group* "Hey, how's
it going?" *cheerful as always, mostly directed at Sam, but to the group she's
with in general*
Ravyn -> Warren Cole:
He even notices that they all seem to be packing
guns under those suit jackets.
Douglas Coburn: Tum te tum. Slow
wander. Not wanting to crowd the girl, since he doesn't know her, but still,
frankly, nosey.
Tansy "Sunburst": She nods to Sam nibbling on her lip. She
will walk with Sam. At least she wqas getting out of the fisahy smelling place.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((can't we roll
to notice men inb black?))
Ravyn: The
Arabic man stops, looking around as he notices a group converging. He frowns,
eyes narrowing a little, as he realizes how outnumbered he is.
Warren Cole: The giants a head and
shoulders above most of the people here, no point in trying to hide, he doesnt
see anyone he recognises, maybe its not him, he stops by a cleaning table, he
could be a fisherman.. sure.
Samantha Jacobs: She grits her teeth.
They're attracting a crowd. "Everyone...just move. Disperese. Tansy, let's get
out of here. I think it be a very. Good. Idea." Startig to lead the girl out.
Ravyn: ((No,
Dragana, because they're quite a ways down the street and outside of your field
of vision.))
Douglas Coburn: ((Ravyn did say, Dragana,
if you're not near or approaching Tansy, roll per+alert. You're neither near nor
approaching, so you had the opportunity to roll))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((alright =)
making sure)) *she is just by Dougla's side, maybe she is bored, as she merely
listens, eyes fixing on Sam for a minute, as she starts to lead the child off*
Abbey Randelle: You needed a walk ,
Miss Tansy? *the girl ...blinks, then murmers quietly, tone polite and proper,
but for the words* I am approaching you and therefore risking myself. do stop
toddling about in the streets with your feline, waiting to be scooped up by
whomever so chooses to do so, risking yourself and others for a walk.
*she's moving with sam and tansy, slender legs quickly eating up the distance*
Douglas Coburn: ((Ah but since you're approaching, no *G*))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((thought
Doug we came near Tansy?))
Douglas Coburn:
8,2,10,1,9,5,
Douglas Coburn: His excellent hearing
picks out the words of those around Tansy, and he slows to a halt, merely
observing, leaning on his cane.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *another glance
to Douglas a smirk* I would wagger you had made your mind
Warren Cole: He diverts a little moving to
a table thats facing the men, keeping an eye on there movements.
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *goes back to
walking along the shops rubbing her head, fairly oblivious to... well apprently
everything*
Tansy "Sunburst": She looks a bit dejected and thinks
maybe Abbey didn't know about....ahh never mind. She is guided by Sam,one hand
still to her nose cause damn that fish smell.
Douglas Coburn: He doesn't respond to
Dragana, too busy eavesdropping.
Ravyn: The
four men make their way down the street, turning onto the block, as they start
to approach the group's general location. The Arabic man, on the other hand,
steels himself, then makes up his mind, heading for the small group around
Tansy. "Ms. Sansretti," he calls out. "May I speak with you a moment?"
Terry O'Brian: *and it seems like the moment he arrives,
everyone's leaving...odd that. His curiosity gets the better of him, and he lets
his arcane slip back on, and he starts to follow the group*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((damm..
Dragana is not that curious, should have brought ARlet *lol*))*she smirks
amuzedlly and begins to make her way*
Samantha Jacobs: Narrowed eyes slide back
to the Arabic man, untrusting. One hand rests on Tansy's shoulder, the other on
her gun.
Warren Cole: The big tramp is nodding along
with the fishmonger, thanking him for some useless fish knowledge and moving
off, men in black suits at the fishmarket, not normal, he moves to follow from a
distance, easily seeing over the crowd.
Ravyn: The
Arab looks behind himself as Dragana starts to veer away, relaxing perhaps the
tiniest of bits, and looks back to Tansy and company.
Abbey Randelle: *she lifts her chin
imperiously, in fine form today, every inch a haughty fench noble. grey eyes
scathe across the arabic man*
Terry O'Brian -> Ravyn:
((Shall I roll Dex+Stealth+Arcane for the whole invisible thing?))
Tansy "Sunburst": Her eyes widden and she holds her
breath. Feeling Sam's hand tighten on her shoulder her violet eyes look to the
man, one hand comming to clasp the other with the charm bractlet on it.
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *yawns a bit, yeah
defently should have slept in more, and looks for a shop selling coffee or
anything with Caffine in it really*
Ravyn -> Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
Which direction is Dragana heading? Off this
particular street, back down the way she was heading, somewhere else entirely?
Ravyn -> Terry O'Brian:
((Sure.))
Terry O'Brian:
5,7,6,4,5,2,3,4,
Abbey Randelle: Good day sir. *she Murmers,
watching him, her eyes slide to sam reaching for the gun, noting it before
looking back to the man*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar -> Ravyn:
((Well the way she was heading... she though
talking to Doug, but.. she is not as curious as he is))
Terry O'Brian: *blends in fairly well with the crowd, and
isn't all that noticably following the Tansy-group. He's sticking close enough
to watch what happens, though*
Ravyn: The
Arab approaches a little closer, ignoring Abbey for the moment...Sam seems to be
the bigger threat, and even she gets only a cursory glance. He walks straight up
to Tansy, nodding curtly. "I need to speak with you about something. You should
come with me now." He starts to pull something out of his jacket.
Ravyn: The
suits watch Dragana heading off, now within potential observing distance, and
seem to move to intercept. ((NOW everyone gets a Per+Alert.))
Abbey Randelle: *Abbey simply steps to the
side. if he was to shoot tansy she'd rather not be hit by a bullet, she glances
around*
Abbey Randelle:
3,6,8,5,
Samantha Jacobs: There is a clear tensing
of her shoulder's as he begins to pull whatever out of his jacket, a small
'snap' as the gun is loosened in the holster.
Terry O'Brian:
4,3,4,3,8,1,
Samantha Jacobs:
8,1,9,4,6,5,6,
Douglas Coburn:
10,6,3,5,5,8,
Tansy "Sunburst":
5,9,4,4,5,
Warren Cole: ((will i keep mines?))
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones:
2,2,6,2,4,
Ravyn:
((Yeah, Warren. *S*))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
9,8,8,4,7,
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((ARG.... least
it's not a botch or failure but come on))
Ravyn: ((1
success: A group is heading this way. 2 successes: 4 men in suits. 3 succ:
they're heading toward Dragana. Dragana: PM'ing result))
Tansy "Sunburst": She get's ready to dodge and one hand is around a charm on her bractlet. "I do not think that would be a good idea." she says.
Samantha Jacobs: "Hell in a fucking
handbasket." Comes the mutter as eyes sweep around. She looks to Abbey to see if
the french woman saw.
Ravyn -> Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
They're armed under those suitcoats. Their faces
are blank of emotion. And they're looking STRAIGHT at you, as they approach.
Terry O'Brian: *oblivious to the MiBs, he starts to drift
behind the arab guy...they all look paranoid, maybe it'd be a good idea to be
behind this guy rather than in front of him*
Abbey Randelle: *eyebrow UP. cold mask ON.
she looks to sam* I suggest we leave. poste haste.
Warren Cole -> Ravyn:
((am i getting pmed ravster?))
Douglas Coburn: Well he doesn't have to be
looking at Tansy to eavesdrop. In fact, it's best he doesn't. And in his eyes
wandering, he sees yet more people not Ventrue, not Ventrue! approaching
Dragana. Fish markets are fascinating!
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *takes no note of
a group heading over, I mean this is NYC. There is groups of tourist all over
the place and keeps doing her window shoping*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((great)) *she
blinks and frowns* bloody hell* eyes fixing on the four men as she simply starts
chanting under her breath* ((spending one quint and one will.. friction curse on
them)) *as the air around her weaves and heats*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
7,2,7,
Samantha Jacobs: She looks to the Arab
man. "You can speak to her another time. Now's bad." She nods shortly, starting
to lead Tansy off again.
Douglas Coburn:
3,5,4,3,
Tansy "Sunburst": She darts looks to Abbey and Sam before
looking back to the Aribic man, wasn't that what they were trying to do before?
She nods her head slightly.
Ravyn: The
Arab pauses as Samantha usnaps the holster and swears, and turns around to
follow her gaze to the suits. His eyes snap back to Tansy, and he pulls a
SigSauer (Light Pistol) from his pocket.
Ravyn -> Warren Cole:
They're armed under those suitcoats. Their faces
are blank of emotion. And they're looking STRAIGHT at Dragana, as they approach.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *onces the
spell is casted she does ushers* I sugest Genetlemen that you do not move *a
little grin, and she gets ready to move out an attack*
Douglas Coburn: Alas only his ears are on
Tansy's group right now. His eyes are on Dragana's Ventrue gentlemen.
Ravyn:
((Okay, since Dragana has started to take combative action, that starts
initiative. Dragana, your action takes place within the initiative round. Roll,

roll same time. If you are disabled before your turn in init would happen, you
lose that action. Initiative order to follow.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((bho *G* is
ok))
Ravyn:
8,6,8,6,5,9,6,
Douglas Coburn: ((lol))
Douglas Coburn: ((Holy crap))
Tansy "Sunburst":
6,2,9,7,
Ravyn: ((Yes,
they noticed. THAT was their Awareness. Sorry, forgot to roll. :P))
Samantha Jacobs: ((... Dayum))
Terry O'Brian: ((...can I rup my electronic dice on your
for luck?))
Terry O'Brian: ((dammit, rub I mean!))
Douglas Coburn: ((You dirty pervert, Jano
:) ))
Ravyn:
((Initiative Order is as follows: Suits, Roxy, Samantha, Terry, Abbey AND
Warren, Doug, Tansy, Dragana, Arab.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((eh...*pokes
DRagan to run, even if she knows she wont))
Terry O'Brian: ((ya've known me for two years now, Troo,
you be the judge ;-P))
Douglas Coburn: ((*G*))
Ravyn: The
suits note Dragana starting to perform a magical effect, and they all pull
firearms. Lucky for Dragana, pulling a weapon from a concealed location is an
action.
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((Since she is
oblivious other than feeling mojo go off her only action this round will be
glancing in the direction of the Mojo))
Samantha Jacobs: She slides the safety off
her gun, and starts to herd Tansy out of the market.
Terry O'Brian: *and his magic-sense is tingling, so he's
looking in that direction, curiosity about the magic overwhelming curiosity
about what Sam and Co are doing*
Abbey Randelle: *grey eyes take in the
gun, anger flaring as she murmers and moves to draw tansy away, eyes flashing
cold as she murmers an icy command to fate* ~FR~ break. (rolling arete to
break/jam/generally fuckup the baddies guns. all guns minus sams.. are belong to
bitch. 1 wp)
Abbey Randelle:
6,3,2,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((ghe))
Warren Cole: hes seen the guns, and this
place is damned crowded, so he stays back, freezing like the innocent bystander
he is,
Douglas Coburn: He utters a rude word,
albeit in Latin, and sprints toward Dragana, knee be damned.
Douglas Coburn:
6,3,6,9,2,7,
Douglas Coburn: Apparently he can run
helluva fast when he puts his mind to it.
Abbey Randelle: (fastest crip i eva saw!)
Douglas Coburn: ((*bows* I'm here all
week, ladies and gentlemen!))
Tansy "Sunburst": And you thought the girl was pale before
she looks about ready to faint now. Not knowing that the men in suits, are
approaching them she is too tired to notice anything really. But the Arab's gun
oh hell yes. She is running away as quick as her feet can take her.
Tansy "Sunburst":
4,3,2,8,9,6,5,
Ravyn:
((Dragana performs her effect, I assume?))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((ok))*casting
and releiasing right now as I declared, the heat around her weaving and
increasing as she does so*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((yuz))
Ravyn: The
Arab looks ready to grab Tansy...however, when she starts to run, he spins
around, pointing his SigSauer in the direction of the suits and Dragana.
Ravyn:
3,8,3,
Ravyn:
((RECAP coming now))
Ravyn: RECAP:
The ARAB turns and points his gun at the group of DRAGANA and SUITS, and those
aware (who got succ on Per+Aware) feel a subtle wave of magic roll off of him.
DRAGANA shouts in the street, and the area around the SUITS starts to warm.
TANSY starts to book it along with SAM, while DOUGLAS runs in DRAGANA'S
direction. ABBEY speaks the language of love and a wave of magic goes from her
to one of the guns, as WARREN, TERRY, and ROXY all pay attention, and the SUITS
draw their guns and point them at Dragana, ignoring the building heat.
Ravyn:
((Sam, give me a Dex+Athletics, 'cause I didn't see one from you.))
Ravyn: ((Per
Domino Effect, all coincidential Effects are at +1 difficulty at this point. The
Sleepers are starting to pay MIGHTY close attention to this whole thing, even as
they back away.))
Samantha Jacobs:
3,2,4,9,10,4,
Ravyn: ((New
Initiative, same order: Suits, Roxy, Samantha, Terry, Abbey AND Warren, Doug,
Tansy, Dragana, Arab.))
Ravyn: The
suits have their guns pointed, though one of them turns to point at Douglas as
the heat on him starts to become painful, and they fire.
Ravyn:
8,8,1,10,6,6,
Ravyn:
3,8,6,4,9,2,
Ravyn:
6,2,6,2,2,9,
Ravyn:
7,9,2,3,7,5,
Ravyn: ((Ack,
delete one of those.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((the one with
more suxx? *G*)
Douglas Coburn: ((LOL))
Ravyn: ((The
last one. *G* Roxy, you're up.))
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *blood runs ice
cold feeling all the mojo flying around and seeing the MiB's, quickly turns and
starts discreetly trying to walk away acting like any other innocent bystander
with out drawing undue attetion to herself.*
Douglas Coburn: ((No, the one firing at
me! Damn you mages! *Shakes fist*))
Abbey Randelle -> Ravyn:
hey you. mind if i ping a question? why'd only 1
gun break? she god 2 sux yes?.. a 6, and 1 wp... is she unable to effect more
than one thing at a time? she's broken multiple guns before... *blinkums*
Samantha Jacobs: Running with Tansy,
getting her out of the firefight and all. ((spendning two WP, one to run, one
for Sta roll needed))
Samantha Jacobs:
3,2,2,7,5,6,
Samantha Jacobs:
5,
Ravyn -> Abbey Randelle:
((Correct. 1 succ for effect, one to effect
another target. Scoring Duration on the magic reference charts, p. 209))
Terry O'Brian: *MiBs...Terry's changing his mind, all
this magic and now men in suits...he's gonna be heading the opposite direction,
and he'll run to try to catch up with Sam and Co*
Terry O'Brian: 6,8,7,
Warren Cole: The big man watches the guns
go off, and feels the heat from so close, ooh this is bad, and in his head
theres that growling of the anger, he watches a guy running in the way, ok time
for warren to approach from the rear, taking it slowly, whilst they are
distracted.
Abbey Randelle -> Ravyn:
poifect!
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((*giggleS*
come one.... Doug is immortal! *gigles* wait.. hemight not be))
Douglas Coburn: He does his damndest to
get between those guns and Dragana. Either he's crazy, or he's got some
whacked-out idea that he can survive multiple gunshot wounds.
Ravyn: ((Gimme
Dex+Stealth, Warren))
Douglas Coburn:
4,2,1,7,9,3,
Abbey Randelle: *Abbey's going to have a
word with fate, whispering "break" again in french and busting into a run out of
the way, not wanting caught by an errant bullet*
Douglas Coburn: He not so nimble, but
still, accurate.
Abbey Randelle:
6,6,2,
Warren Cole -> Ravyn:
((wp))
Warren Cole:
3,6,2,9,4,
Abbey Randelle: (dex + ath as she runs out
the way)
Abbey Randelle:
8,7,2,2,6,1,9,3,
Ravyn:
7,6,7,7,2,9,
Douglas Coburn: "RUN!" he barks at
Dragana.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((waiting turn
*pouts*G*))
Ravyn:
((Abbey, casting takes to much focus of will to do that AND run with any skill.
You can split your die pool to do so, or just do Magic and move a little (but
not running full-on), or just run.))
Abbey Randelle: (enh. just movin a bit
out the way then)
Tansy "Sunburst": Not the blind fear that prolly would get
her running from Robert but fear non-the-less keeps her feet moving despite the
smell of fish that is making her queesy.
Tansy "Sunburst":
4,3,9,5,3,4,4,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: (alrgiht)) *a
light look to Dougla,s run?!, she scowls as he gets in between, ducking down as
she mutters in enochian, that old dark tongue, releasing with a weave of heat*
((ok... in alas to protect too an ally, not knowing he cna't die =P Froces
Shield, to halt the buttles coming their way, spenidng a willpower again, and
one quiet to lower diff))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
10,6,1,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((wel.. two
suxx!!! to block bullets.. hmm))
Ravyn: The
man fires his gun at the group. Specifically, one of the suits.
Ravyn:
8,9,9,1,8,2,7,
Ravyn:
2,4,6,10,4,1,3,1,7,
Ravyn:
((Recap coming))
Ravyn: RECAP:
The ARAB shoots at the suit, but merely clips his head, drawing a hint of blood.
DRAGANA'S bullet shiled comes up, but weakly, with the Domino Effect of
disbelief weakening her Art. TANSY runs, with SAM catching up with her, and
TERRY right on her heels. ABBEY tries to break another gun, and while again, the
Domino Effect of disbelief makes the magic harder to cast, she manages to
disable another gun. ROXY sneaks away, as DOUGLAS manages to get in the way of
yet another bullet, taking both of the now-working ones, while DRAGANA takes
none. As the bullets hit, the deliver electric shocks. WARREN tries to sneak,
but these suits are attentive, and one of them looks his way. ((Rolling damages;
both for douglas. This is at -1 die for successes due to Dragana's shield))
Ravyn:
((Douglas, this is Bashing, you can soak))
Ravyn:
9,5,10,6,4,8,1,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((won't be
two?))
Ravyn:
9,4,6,9,6,
Douglas Coburn: 6,1,
Douglas Coburn:
3,9,
Douglas Coburn: (('Ard as nails!))
Ravyn: ((No,
Dragana. I stated at the end of the Turn, Domino Effect added +1 to the
difficulty of any magic roll. You were rolling Forces 2, Vulgar with Witnesses,
makes it 7, -1 with your Quinessence makes it 6, +1 for Domino makes it 7))
Ravyn: ((But
you spent a WP. Dammit. I'm a 'tard.))
Ravyn: ((So
-1 succ from each damage roll. Douglas, take a total of 5 bashing.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((ah sorry!))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((giggles see
=) ))
Douglas Coburn: He actually looks
surprised at how much this hurts. That is before he collapses in a twitching
heap and passes out.
Ravyn: Ravyn:
((New Initiative, order is: Suits, Roxy, Samantha, Terry, Abbey AND Warren,
Tansy, Dragana, Arab. Douglas is now sleeping with the fishes.))
Douglas Coburn:
6,
Douglas Coburn: His lenses, at least,
don't get scuffed or cracked in the fall, but he does let go of his cane, since
there's no consciousness or muscular control there any more.
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *once she is past
the initial level of gawkers, she picks up her pace heading away still trying to
not draw attetion to herself, trying to look like any other freaked out person
in the area*
Ravyn: The
two suits without guns are advancing on Dragana, their hair starting to smoke
and singe. The other two are now shooting, one at Dragana, the other at Warren.
Samantha Jacobs: Still running with Tansy,
hand on her gun, and getting her safely out and away of the area. ((spending two
wp, one for running, one for sta))
Ravyn:
2,8,10,8,7,5,
Ravyn:
10,8,4,4,7,6,
Douglas Coburn: ((You can't spend more
than 1WP in a turn, Sam))
Ravyn: ((Sam,
can only spend 1 WP a turn))
Douglas Coburn: ((lol, I'm gonna stop
talking now *G*))
Ravyn: ((S'okay,
Troo. Thanks for the assist. *G*))
Warren Cole: The big tramp sees the gun
coming up and attempts to dodge the shot, ((spending a rage for another action))
Abbey Randelle: *who knew the pristine
creature liked breaking things so much? delicate brow furrowing slightly as she
folds small white hands in front of her and murmers* ~fr~ Do Break. s.v.p.
*please? oh yes.. she's getting polite about it now. she's in the middle of a
gun fight, surrounded by spectators, dead fish, idiotic compatriots, and she
still doesn't have her damned net... she's done mussing about. (wp)(quint)*
Samantha Jacobs:
7,9,7,1,3,7,
Terry O'Brian: *he'll just continue fleeing the
scene...guns=bad, after all...he'll even spend a WP on the running*
Terry O'Brian: 8,1,3,
Samantha Jacobs: ((Ookay then *L* WP goes
to Sta))
Samantha Jacobs:
5,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((LOL ok..

Abbey Randelle: 3

Tansy *hugs to all, and has to flee*))

Warren Cole: ((WP))
Abbey Randelle:

Warren Cole:
2,9,7,3,
-> Ravyn: Can Slinky join the
scene next round?
Ravyn: ((Not
mid-combat, lurker, sorry. Can join the aftermath, though.))
-> Ravyn: kk, thanks
Tansy "Sunburst": And she continues to run.
Tansy "Sunburst":
9,10,5,6,6,8,5,
Ravyn -> Abbey Randelle:
Breaking Gun on Dragana or on Warren?
Tansy "Sunburst": ((Umm I think Tansy just out pased
everyone*Blinks*))
Abbey Randelle -> Ravyn:
dragana.. hermetics looked out for 1st.
Abbey Randelle: (pregnant women are
natural sprinters)
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *Fatures harde
as Douglas falls, she focues on the gun aimed at her, wishpering one single word
in enochian* ((gun=caboom please, Froces 3)) ((before it shoots her =P))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
7,4,5,
Douglas Coburn: ((Threaten the child, and
the mother can attain superhuman abilities in defence *nodnod*))
Ravyn: The
Arab fires once more, switching to aim at Warren's attacker for some reason, not
Dragana's.
Ravyn:
2,2,8,5,6,3,7,
Tansy "Sunburst": (*Nodnodnod* obviously *L*))
Ravyn:
2,5,7,3,7,1,
Ravyn:
((RECAP coming now))
Ravyn: RECAP:
The ARAB fires again, and while he hits the target, again, it's a mere clip.
DRAGANA tries to cast and make the SUIT'S gun go boom and the effect causes the
gun to to blow, burning the SUIT'S hand. Unfortunately, it's the same gun ABBEY
asked to not work. TANSY hauls ASS like only a pregant woman can, and SAM is
running behind her, away from the combat scene. TERRY isn't so fast, and is
still visible to combat. ROXY continues her walk away, DOUGLAS lies on the
ground, and WARREN doesn't quite successfully dodge the taser bullet coming his
way. ((Rolling damage for the taser bullet; Warren, roll soak))
Ravyn:
3,10,1,8,4,
Warren Cole:
5,2,9,1,
Ravyn: ZZOT.
((Warren takes 1 Bashing. Rage action now, Warren))
Warren Cole: The big man groans a long
growl as hes hit, swinging to disarm the guy ahead of him.
Warren Cole:
10,4,8,4,4,
Warren Cole:
2,4,6,2,
Warren Cole: ((yay! 1 sux))
Ravyn:
8,2,8,
Ravyn: Warren
tries to disarm, but unfortunately strong as he is, the suit is stronger, and he
maintains his hold.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((Damm it I
am goin gto be called for souper soon!))
Douglas Coburn: ((We can assume you get
captured, if you like? *lol*))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((hei! *pokes
Dougs* mean you come along! =P))
Douglas Coburn: ((*lays around looking
insignificant...*))
Ravyn: (New
Initiative, order is: Suits, Terry, Abbey AND Warren, Dragana, Arab. Roxy, Tansy
& Sam are out of combat range; Douglas is still passed out for this round; can
try to wake next round.))
Douglas Coburn: He lays spreadeagled on
the sidewalk, drool slowly falling from his lips.
Terry O'Brian: *terry's just gonna keep going, and he'll
attempt to catch up with Sam and Tansy, spending another WP on the running*
Terry O'Brian: 7,3,3,
Ravyn: The
one suit who was approaching Dragana goes for a hold; the one with the gun tries
to shoot Warren again. The other two are starting to move for the Arab. ((Dex+Brawl
for Dragana, and yes I know he's taking some damage. Dex+FA for Warren))
Ravyn:
((Sorry, Str+Brawl))
Ravyn:
2,10,4,4,8,
Ravyn:
8,1,5,6,1,2,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((damm it!! I
am called!! noooo!!!!)) ((posting action now... place it where it fits, I'll try
to sneak and check.. but most likely won't)) *the lady frowns, immidialy going
for hits his chest, while ushering a word* ((hitting and word is the focus,
forces ... banging him off her, roling both.. so I can slip for now))
Warren Cole:
8,2,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
2,1,9,6,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
4,8,10,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: (8oj... try to
pick!!))
Abbey Randelle: *Abbey sighs nearly
inaudibly as Dragana explodes the very gun she just disabled, in a vulgar
display of power. she's not seeing this going well* Might I suggest those able
to run, do so? *and she takes her own advice, running like a bat out of hell (wp)*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: BB!
Abbey Randelle:
9,5,2,7,2,2,4,5,
Abbey Randelle: (-2 dif due to ath apt)
Warren Cole:
1,2,
Ravyn: The
Arab grits his teeth, focuses, and aims at the suit on Warren. ((WP))
Ravyn:
4,2,10,2,8,1,6,
Ravyn:
5,3,6,3,9,7,7,
Ravyn: RECAP:
Finally, the ARAB gets a damn good shot, blasting the SUIT in the back. DRAGANA
hits the other SUIT with an extra pow. ABBEY hauls her ass OUTA there. TERRY
gets out of the scene as well. The SUIT that was shooting luckily goes down,
'cause WARREN just didn't dodge. The other two SUITS run after the ARAB.
((Rolling damage for Dragana))
Ravyn:
6,6,
Ravyn:
4,5,4,
Ravyn: And
with the Forces-added damage, the suit goes down.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((Damag from
what sorry, missed it.. need to rush back =)))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((*Snugs*
runing fast Rav.. she'll try to hail Douglas out of here.. now I fad again*snugz*))
Ravyn:
((Douglas, roll STA to wake up))
Douglas Coburn:
9,1,
Douglas Coburn: ((Zzzzzzzzzz))
Tansy "Sunburst": ((*winces* it just isn't doug's day))
Ravyn: ((NEW
ROUND: Init is as follows for those remaining: Suits, Warren, Dragana, Arab))
Ravyn: As
Dragana's effect finally fades away, the Suits pick up speed, booking after the
Arab. ((Dex+Athl for Suits))
Ravyn:
9,9,7,9,2,8,
Ravyn:
1,7,10,4,1,4,
Warren Cole: The big man kicks the downed
suits gun off and moves to the man with the sticks side, looking to him and
shaking him gently. ((aware to any around))
Warren Cole:
4,6,6,8,5,1,
Ravyn:
7,2,9,6,3,9,
Ravyn:
6,7,2,5,6,3,
Warren Cole: "you ok?" he tries shaking the
guy,
Ravyn:
Dragana tries to help Douglas get up.
Ravyn: The
Arab is running away, down a side street.
Douglas Coburn -> Ravyn:
Is that an auto-wakeup, since it healed 2 HL's?
Ravyn:
7,7,9,5,5,2,
Ravyn -> Douglas Coburn:
((Yep))
Douglas Coburn: His eyes flutter open as
Warren gives him a little shake while Dragana hauls on his arm. "Wha-" He breaks
off, hand going to his mouth, wiping at the wetness there. He looks awful
confused.
Ravyn: RECAP:
The ARAB books it down a side street. One of the two SUITS is right on his
ass...the other is much slower. DRAGANA moves to help DOUGLAS, but WARREN does a
better job of rousing the man. ((Anyone else want to continue acting in init?))
Tansy "Sunburst": ((Nope))
Douglas Coburn:
5,5,3,
Abbey Randelle: (naw. abbey's continuing
to olympian sprint out of there, hopefully in the direction of sam and Tansy.
want me to roll to cathc up?)
Ravyn:
((Assuming not; combat over))
Warren Cole: "Coom on," he starts offer
doug support, seeing the stick, he gets ready to head to the closest safe allet.
Ravyn:
((Sure, gimme one more, Abbey))
Douglas Coburn: He doesn't seem to
gather his wits particularly speedily, remaining confused and stunned for
several moments.
Abbey Randelle:
7,1,1,2,1,4,2,8,
Warren Cole: ((AHHAHA))
Ravyn: Down
the side street, the sound of several gunshots sound, along with the screams of
bystanders that so recently seranaded this street.
Abbey Randelle: (beleive it or not.. not a
botch! *laughs* thanks the heavens for ability apt. so abbey has to avoid a
homeless person)
Warren Cole: He starts to haul the guy up "Yo
was shot wit somet'ing, come on"
Slinky -> Ravyn: ((May I?
*s*))
Ravyn -> Slinky:
((You may. *G*))
Slinky: Apparently the closest safe alley is
occupied.
Terry O'Brian: *Terry's continuing after Tansy and Sam,
Sam having been the only person he knew in that whole chaotic mess that just
happened, though now that the combat is behind him, he lets his Arcane fall off
so that he might be recognized*
Douglas Coburn: "Shot?" he echoes numbly.
"No, that cain't be right..."
Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *heading for the
nearst subway station and away from all the violence. Looking foward to getting
back uptown to the slums where it is safe.*
Warren Cole:
5,9,9,
Douglas Coburn:
10,6,1,
Warren Cole: Warren tugs doug up supporting
him, starting to walk him towards the alley, "No time"
Tansy "Sunburst": Tansy continued to run as quick as she
would until she ran out of steam or got sick to her stomach which ever came
first.
Douglas Coburn: He gets hauled to his
feet, and slowly starts coming around to what's going on, his muscles still
twitching a little in protest. "Mah cane..." He looks around for it.
Slinky: The massive wolf is wearing a collar
and tags now, but it looks no less vicious for this added domestic afterthought,
hackles rising as Warren and Douglas step into the alley she was observing the
ruckus from.
Abbey Randelle: *ack. ugh! the
homeless! it nearly touched her.. she slinks past it as quickly as possible,
moving to run again, oh.. they'd be miles away by now...*
Warren Cole: Warren ducks for the guys
cane, offering it to him. "not much time," as he steps over the downed suit.
Abbey Randelle -> Ravyn:
want another dex + ath? or are they faaaar
awaaaay ? *laughs*
Douglas Coburn: "Time," he echoes,
clutching the cane as it's pressed into his hand. He lets Warren drag him.
Ravyn: The
Arab man emerges from the side street, reloading his gun as he approaches the
last suit, still unconscious from Dragana's NASTY punch.
Ravyn -> Abbey Randelle:
((One more to catch up with Tansy, yeah))
Abbey Randelle:
2,4,4,2,6,6,7,6,
Douglas Coburn:
2,8,7,6,4,3,10,
Tansy "Sunburst": Actually she would stop when Sam
protests to much and has a hard time breathing giving Terry and Abbey a chance
to catch up.
Warren Cole: He moves past Silky, ignoring
the wolf, its not shown him anything like trust so hell with the animal, "we is
heading anywhere but here"
Ravyn: Abbey,
after her mishap with the hobo who *GASP* TOUCHED her, hauls ass, probably to
get away from grubbiness then make up speed, and catches up with Tansy.
Douglas Coburn: He blinks several times.
"Oh... Oh mah god... He's goin' to kill him in cole blood!" He starts trying to
get free of Warren's grasp.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((back where
we?))
Slinky: Growls as the two men move past her,
and moves to peer out of the alley and see if any of the gunmen are following.
Warren Cole:
5,4,5,10,9,
Abbey Randelle: *ew.. hobo.. flee, befor
ethose hands get on you.. . damn she's good, going from 0 - "catch up" in 3-2-1,
little sneakered feet patting on the pavement as she streaks into veiw behind
tansy*
Douglas Coburn: ((Warren's haulin' Doug to
an alley, so I assume Dragana is too?))
Slinky:
2,5,4,9,3,
Ravyn: The
Arab looks up at Douglas, eyes cold, as he moves toward the unconscious Suit.
"You had best leave, friend. They will be sending more soon, to clean up." He
cocks the gun.
Ravyn: ((Yes,
Dragana is, too.))
Warren Cole: he sees the arab going for the
guy and lets doug go, hes seen people killed in cold blood before. he moves
slowly Doug.
Douglas Coburn: He shakes his head at
the Arab. "Please, don't..."
Slinky: (was per)
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *she takes
Douglas hand, making him look at her* those are not people.. move
Slinky: Slinks after the 2 C-men, and
Draganna.
Terry O'Brian: *as Tansy and Sam seem to have stopped, he
should be able to catch up with them now*
Douglas Coburn: Just taking his hand isn't
enough. He seems to have the ability to remain utterly focussed on whatever has
his attention, and right now it's the man who seems about to murder a
defenceless person.
Arabian Man:
He looks at Douglas, smiling very faintly. "It's all right. They will make
more." He points the gun at the Suit's head and fires three times.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: **rolls her
eyes, and pulls of DouglaS* they are blody automatons, Move! *making him walk*
Slinky: Yellow eyes tilt up towards Dragana,
then down to the unconscious man, she just said wasn't human. A look to the
Arab, as she calculates if there's time to sniff the body before he dispatches
it.
Slinky: Nope. No time. She'll have to sniff
it post mortem.
Douglas Coburn ->
Arabian Man: 3,3,10,7,5,3,9,
Abbey Randelle: *she moves towards Tansy,
moving to help support the military woman likely Rasping. eyes cold on
"sunburst"* Miss Tansy. Have you somewhere safe you might move to?
Tansy "Sunburst": And yes to Abbey's probably abject
horror once Tansy and Sam have stopped for a second or two Tansy get's sick and
throws up off to the side in an alley. Shaking like a leaf to boot.
Douglas Coburn -> Arabian Man:
Blood and brains, or metal and gears? (Hey,
automaton suggests clockwork to Doug *G*)
Abbey Randelle: *makes certain her shoes
are out of the way as she supports Sam. quite tired of vomit*
Arabian Man -> Douglas Coburn:
((Blood and brains. *G*))
Douglas Coburn: He screams as the stranger
pumps bullets into the downed man's brain, struggling to get free of Dragana and
move that way. "NO!"
Slinky: Steps up to sniff the corpse.
Terry O'Brian: *stops, trying to catch his breath once he
gets to where Tansy and Sam (and now Abbey) are* "Umm...hello?"
Abbey Randelle: *she even averts her eyes
respectfully.*
Douglas Coburn:
6,5,
Slinky -> Arabian Man:
((rolling per, does it smell human?))
Slinky -> Arabian
Man: 6,4,3,8,9,
Tansy "Sunburst": She yes very unlady like she spits a few
times afterwards. "I dunno....my Hotel....Lings?" she trties to keep the worried
shake out of her voice but hey she was tired and sick, not a good combo.
Warren Cole: Cole looks to the woman..
automa...shakes his head, "tis way, shortcut," ignoring the shooting, worse has
happened, he rubs at the bump forming where hes been shot.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *growls and
moves, the TINY lady, holding Douglas, whiling and trying to pin him momentarily
agaist a wall to make his listen* the are not real! they are made of!!
emotionless bastards.. now move! or stay to be taken by the back up *well he put
in front of her... so... she will try*
Arabian Man -> Slinky:
((Smells human enough.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
5,3,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((gha.. but he
gets lose *sighs*))
Douglas Coburn: One wimp against another!
He breaks free of Dragana's grip and goes running toward the corpse, even though
it's clearly too late.
Abbey Randelle: Lings is suitable. you
will stay there. *funny how that doesn't sound really. like a request. maybe
she's been hanging around with Ingvar too much. a polite smile as she moves on
with sam*
Tansy "Sunburst": She stands upright now with a hand to
her upper stomach and taking shallow breaths. She looks to Terry and nods. "hey"
she moves away from the smell cause otherwise she was going to be sick again.
Terry O'Brian: 2,1,
Arabian Man:
He looks at Douglas and the gun goes up toward him as he advances, in case
violence is going to be directed his way. In the distance, sirens can be heard.
"I just saved your life. He would have reported you to his superiors, and you
would have been targeted. Be smart. Leave."
Slinky: Her ears go back and she offers the
Arab a snarl, moving off to track Sam's scent. She should make sure the woman is
safe.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *hufs, simply
moving again, taking the mans (doug) arm and draging him along, third is the
last chanse*
Tansy "Sunburst": She frown watching Abbey move off with
Sam. "You aren't going to go there as well?" she is confused.
Douglas Coburn: "They were usin' tasers!"
He does grind to a halt, however, seeing as the Arab's gun has been proven all
too lethal. His eyes flit to it, then back to the man's face. "They had no
intention of killin' anyone!"
Slinky: The big ugly stray moves off at a
trot in the direction the others ran.
Warren Cole: The giants getting
frustrated, they shouldnt be here, he should just go. "Please sir," he heads to
the mans side, ducking low to him, "hes gone, time to go sah.."
Arabian Man:
"Yes, and once back in their detention facilities, you would have been as good
as dead." He glances over to Dragana. "The war is not over. They've changed
their own rules...the Pogrom is coming back in full effect. Let your superiors
know."
Terry O'Brian: "I'm guessing that there's some secrets I'm
not in on yet being discussed here..." *clearly baffled as to what's going on*
Warren Cole: ((man equals Doug :P))
Abbey Randelle: *the white wisp of a girl
supports a panting sam, looking over her shoulder* I must drop miss Jacobs at a
secure location so she might recover. you may accompany me should you require
transport. *its murmered as she makes her way towards a small saturn parked a
block down, happily away from the fish stench, afteralll that smell just doesn't
come out*
Slinky: She gives her senses to the wind, as
she moves. Hugging the walls to avoid pedestrian traffic. (wp)
Slinky:
9,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *he lady looks
at the man fixedly, nods once* be it.... we leave now, you too, thank you *grip
tightening on Douglas* you either come Mister... or I leave you behind... your
last chanse for a safe move
Douglas Coburn: His eyes widen at the word
'pogrom'. Organized killing? Can't be due to race: Dragana's white as they come,
and so's the downed, dead man. Must be religion then... Oh god, religious
zealots...
Slinky: ((awareness for those within range))
Douglas Coburn:
9,5,5,7,
Slinky -> Arabian Man:
((cor 1 to help her track the others))
Arabian Man:
He pockets his gun, and gives the trio in front of him a last look as he slips
off toward an alley.
Douglas Coburn: ((Awareness first, int
next))
Douglas Coburn:
8,7,6,3,
Tansy "Sunburst": She shakes her head. "I..I'll be there."
she says in Abbey's direction. "Terry if you wanna come along you can." she
says. Quaffle meows from his seated spot beside Tansy.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((were is
Slinky?))
Arabian Man -> Slinky:
((You got 'em. About three blocks away.))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
2,1,10,2,8,6,
Douglas Coburn: "Oh... oh no..." He starts
backing away from the corpse and the crazy murdering Arab.
Warren Cole: the giant sighs looking
down to Dragana and her ultimatum, "Take your time," he murmers to Doug, "but
make it soon"
Terry O'Brian: *very confused* "Umm ok..." *no recognition
of Tansy is evident* ((*grumbles about how the dice hate him*))
Slinky: She's just moving off from the group
around the Arab and dead techie.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *pulig Doug he
sitll resising?))
Douglas Coburn: ((Nope))
Slinky -> Arabian Man:
You pming those that made the awareness rolls, or
should I?
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *A look to
Warren* you hear the sirens? no time.. we either more and warn others, or stay
and fight
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *so taking
douglas out of there, she'll start for the nears alley and keep moving*
Arabian Man -> Douglas Coburn:
Well, THERE was a ping of something strange and
unusual coming from the wolf making it's way down the street...
Slinky: There they are... she breaks into a
run.
Arabian Man -> Slinky:
((I got it))
Warren Cole: "He isnt indeestructable
missie, hes not all better yet, " offering doug support until at least they get
into the alley
Arabian Man -> Dragana Messánie Lindonar:
Well, THERE was a ping of something strange and
unusual coming from the wolf making it's way down the street...
Abbey Randelle: I suggest you take every
precaution in arriving there poste haste. *she murmers, a last glance towards
the girl with icy grey eyes. she whispers sharply* No further walks and
detours that put your fellows at risk. If you please. *she opens the door and
allows Sam the dignity of getting herself in, moving ot the drivers side*
Slinky: Pours on the speed.
Douglas Coburn: Now his eyes flit to the
wolf as Dragana hauls him toward an alley. Oh jesus, this gets better and
better.
Slinky: (dex+ath)
Slinky:
1,1,8,7,9,
Tansy "Sunburst": She nods to Abbey several times and
starts to head off "Common." she says to Terry and she heads down the alley to
head for Chinatown.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *green eyes
digging on the wolf, frowns* shifters... wonderfull *said low, and keeps her
way*
Slinky: And damned near runs into a wino,
hopping over him and dodging another pedestrian. Don't these people have some
place better to be?!
Warren Cole:
4,5,5,3,4,
Abbey Randelle: (no. they lurk in alleys
hoping to touch white things)
Douglas Coburn: "Ah don't want to get
involved in yoah mage war thang..."
Terry O'Brian: *he follows Tansy towards Chinatown*
Slinky -> Arabian Man:
((I trust Sam is going voluntarily with Abbey?))
Warren Cole: The big man misses Draganas
words, probably best, as he head around a corner, pointing across to another
alley "That way," he nods ssure.
Arabian Man -> Slinky:
((Yes))
Warren Cole: he heres that, looking to
the too, a bit of confusion right there,
Abbey Randelle: *abbey slips into her car,
and startles the crap out of sam with a instant of roaring electronica. before
casting her an apologetic smile, and driving to Michelles. calling ahead if sam
has not had the forthought to do so. you know.. with the need to breath and all
taking precedance*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *eyes him, he
is not one, chuckles* you knwo of us.... involvent is the price of knowledge...
*srhugs* you helped me, I'll get you out of here, what you do after that.. is
your thing, though understand, you can not Know without the risk that comes with
it
Arabian Man:
((And, that's it for me...killing this Nick. Hope you all enjoyed...I'm feeling
generous, so XP posted in the forums soon.))
Douglas Coburn: ((Woot!))
Douglas Coburn: He blinks up at Warren
helplessly, then to Dragana again.
Abbey Randelle: ((yay! much l ove for
little blue man! I say coochie coochie too!))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *the woma is
ust moving away of it* ((thanks Rav1!!))
Douglas Coburn: "I want answers," he says
suddenly, limping after Dragana, pain evident in his face as his right leg drags
even worse than normal after the sudden sprint earlier.
Warren Cole: so he leads them up the next
alley and round onto the street, pausing there and looking, "where you wan to be
Missie?"
Slinky: Unless Tansy and her group are moving
very fast, the wolf is soon catching up to them, although her senses are still
focused on Sam.
: (sams moving away in a car. towards
michelles)
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: Not here *she
keeps moving, looking around, keeps moving a glance to Warren if he is stil near
them*
Warren Cole: ok he stops, the limper wants
answers and the huge tramp wouldnt mind some,
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *thinking* a
place near Battery will work
Douglas Coburn: "Where, exactly?"
Slinky: She'll track them until they're out
of her range.
Tansy "Sunburst": Sam's scent would have stopped a blockor
so from where Tansy's secnt viered off, and Slinky could easily catch up with
Tansy although Quaffle soon has a problem with the situation and Tansy ends up
carrying him))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: IF you keep
talking on the street of this mister I'll leave you to your deviced *the lady
keeps walking*
Douglas Coburn: "He knows about the
Treaty," he murmurs softly.
Warren Cole: "if yo keep making descisions
about people yo might find yoself without samaritans one day missie,.." he nods
to doug, he saw the guy jump into bullets for her.
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *shakes her
head* not here *to Douglas*
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: *an eye to
Warren* you do not seem to even know what you are talking about, so until you
can make an educate decition quiet or leave
Douglas Coburn: "Don't leave," he says
quietly, pleadingly, to Warren, looking up at the huge, huge man.
J.C. Potter : *clings tightly with gloved hands to the
main water pipe leading into the three story building he was scaling. Both of
his emerald green eyes could be seen through a black ski mask, his lean body
enveloped by the dark non descript clothing he had chosen to wear tonight.*
J.C. Potter : *clings tightly with gloved hands to the
main water pipe leading into the three story building he was scaling. Both of
his emerald green eyes could be seen through a black ski mask, his lean body
enveloped by the dark non descript clothing he had chosen to wear tonight.*
Douglas Coburn: ((It's mid afternoon in
blazing sunshine, JC))
Douglas Coburn: ((Nothing personal, but we
started our scene in an outdoor fish market in blazing midday sun, so it'd be
kinda jarring for nightfall to suddenly be on us ;) ))
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: ((*nods* point
sto Doug* what he said.. might be more late.. but not night yet))
Douglas Coburn: ((Also please read the
playtesting part of the FAQ? You're not apped yet, so you'll need to put
Playtesting in your tag somewhere. Thanks))
Warren Cole: He looks down to the smaller
man, a smile and a nod, "I is coming,"
Dragana Messánie Lindonar: Perfect *no pun
intended she keeps walking, eventually taking them to a small... rather empty
house in the middle of a half racked neightborhood* ((want to change to ress?))
Warren Cole: the big man knows these
streets like the back of his hand, and the address is now pinpointed in his head
((sure))
Douglas Coburn: ((*flits*))
