SirAlexTheFirst: ~~~~~~~START~~~~~~

Adm H Sopko: Weeeeee're off to see the Leonard!

AndrewRogue: (*shoots Sopko to save time*)

Dark Japheth: (The mediocre leonard of yarovan)

AndrewRogue: (Apparently should have shot Gorth though.)

Dark Japheth: With Hunter and Lea, Zao will be quiet, and ask "Is... is Aria ok?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter bites his lip:: "I'm... not sure."

SirAlexTheFirst: Oh, and

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 20-sided die: 14

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 20-sided die: 5

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 100-sided die: 10

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 4-sided die: 1

SirAlexTheFirst: Nothing to see here move along.

Adm H Sopko: Those...

Adm H Sopko: Are some terrible rolls

Dark Japheth: I laugh

Adm H Sopko: Anyway.

AndrewRogue: (Yes, but terrible for who?)

Dark Japheth: "Do you know whats wrong? And why doesn't... " Zao will jerk his head towards Llamaurelia. "..she like you?"

AndrewRogue: *Aria simply walks near the back of the group quietly for now*

Dark Japheth: Oh

Dark Japheth: She's with us!

Dark Japheth: Zao will notice this, and walk back. "Are you ok?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter is up front, leading the way and being lost in his own thoughts::

AndrewRogue: "Ah? Oh... I'm... I'm fine. My stomach was just upset."

AndrewRogue: *she smiles* "And tripping and falling like that... it wouldn't be a day without it happening once."

Dark Japheth: "Ah. I can find some tea leaves, if you want."

Dark Japheth: "Thats not your fault. Some of us are graceful and lithe, like swans. Others are real people." He nods.

AndrewRogue: "And some of us are a little worse than even that."

Dark Japheth: "Are you forgetting everything I've said?" He smiles as he walks. "Confidence. With confidence comes strength. In ones self, in belief, in faith. With a lack of self confidence comes weakness."

AndrewRogue: "But you also have to know your limits Zao. I... have an actual balance problem."

Dark Japheth: "I'm not seeing the difference here. Do you work to correct it?"

AndrewRogue: "As long as I've been alive."

Dark Japheth: "Then why draw attention to it and be hateful towards it? Its part of what makes you what you are."

Dark Japheth: "Just like the nimbus. And the healing."

AndrewRogue: "I don't really hate it Zao. Its... just there anymore. I'm used to it."

AndrewRogue: "But thank you. And... I don't really need the tea leaves. My stomach's fine now."

Dark Japheth: Zao nods. "As you wish."

Adm H Sopko: ::Of course, this doesn't help Hunter's mind much... but they arrive at the Yarovan building! Hunter and Lea wander to the front desk:: <H> "We're here to see Leonard. Is he in?"

SirAlexTheFirst: The secretary nods. "He's expecting you, sir. Head on up."

Dark Japheth: Zao is quiet and will follow everyone.

Adm H Sopko: ::He nods:: "Thank you." ::Annnnd off they go::

AndrewRogue: *just looks about carefully and suspiciously*

SirAlexTheFirst: Gimme Spot checks.

*OnlineHost*: Dark Japheth rolled 1 20-sided die: 16

Dark Japheth: 16.

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 11

AndrewRogue: 12!

*OnlineHost*: Adm H Sopko rolled 1 20-sided die: 12

Adm H Sopko: 22

Adm H Sopko: 24 if hummer, 26 if human

SirAlexTheFirst: All of you notice a rather large number of armed men and women roaming the building, much more so than is usual here.

Dark Japheth: Ah. Then Zao is going to be slightly afraid and will walk faster than he should.

Adm H Sopko: ::The cats stay on alert, but Hunter seems fairly focused on his destination::

SirAlexTheFirst: So up to the top you go, and into Leonard's office again, eh?

Adm H Sopko: Yep

AndrewRogue: (Apparently)

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard is sitting behind his desk this time, barely visible behind large stacks of paperwork.

SirAlexTheFirst: He looks up and waves as you enter. "Come in, come in, have a seat. How go the preparations?"

Adm H Sopko: "Actually, sir, that is what we've come to talk to you about." ::He enters, sitting in the seat he was at last time::

SirAlexTheFirst: "Obviously, of course. How can I help?"

Dark Japheth: Zao stands in the back of the room, wearing his +2 chibi blush of awkwardness

AndrewRogue: *stands around where Hunter is seated*

Adm H Sopko: "We were thinking of ways that we could possibly pull this off... and we were pretty hard pressed for ideas. Knowing what we do of the building, and their capabilites without a lot of emotion clouding our judgement has

Adm H Sopko: given us a new perspective. So we believe a mission at this time would be ill-advised... I apologize for wasting a lot of time, but we're just not prepared for this. I cannot see it having an outcome other than

Adm H Sopko: many of our men losing their lives. I don't want to lead men to their deaths again."

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard looks up, and stares at Hunter.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter looks back, his features not faltering::

SirAlexTheFirst: "All right, then. We'll get someone else to lead it." He looks to Aurelia, who nods.

Dark Japheth: Zao is quiet, although he seems to twitch for an abrupt second.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter knew it would be a little late to call it off, but he can't help but be a bit disappointed and ashamed::

AndrewRogue: "Leonard... have you even seen the inside of the labs?"

SirAlexTheFirst: "Yes, I have, though not with my own eyes." He continues reading paperwork.

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 20-sided die: 4

Dark Japheth: Zao's eyes squint.

AndrewRogue: "Then you've got to understand how... how stupid this is. Do you have a plan to actually get him out?"

SirAlexTheFirst: He puts the papers away, focuses on y'all, and sighs. "Not two days ago you stood in this very office and told me why this was worth doing. Nothing has changed since then. As for specific plans...

SirAlexTheFirst: You'll have to talk to the actual folks in charge of the operation to get those. I'm not the military strategy type."

AndrewRogue: *she sighs* "Listen, please... You had me killed on the thought that I was working against you and it turned out wrong. This could be a lot worse. A lot worse."

SirAlexTheFirst: "And where, exactly, are we wrong here? Are you implying that Whittyre does not in fact have Verity in captivity?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter nods to what Aria is saying:: "This is worth doing. However, we should wait until we have the best chance of success. Doing this now is infinately more dangerous as if we fail, we have no only lost some good men, but

Adm H Sopko: we have tipped our hands to Whittyre, if they don't even know about this already and are waiting for us. Failing now would destroy any chances of operations in the future. It's simply too big of a risk, Leonard."

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard waits for Hunter to finish.

Adm H Sopko: (I'm done... I felt that was pretty obvious.)

SirAlexTheFirst: (I know. He's still waiting.)

SirAlexTheFirst: Awkward silence ensues.

AndrewRogue: "Leonard, I want this to be successful. Whittyre shouldn't have control of Verity. Besides..." *she looks thoughtful for a moment* "What about Pepitio? Did your Will find him Hunter?"

AndrewRogue: *Did Will

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter shakes his head:: "Not before we left, no."

Dark Japheth: "Wasn't listening." *murmured*

SirAlexTheFirst: "Perhaps I should lay the situation out for you again," Leonard explains, putting on his best wise old grandpa look.

AndrewRogue: (BRB Bathroom)

SirAlexTheFirst: "Whittyre has Verity, and that is bad. The longer they have him, the more likely it is that bad things will come of it. The more we delay, the more chance they'll find out about us, if they don't know already.

SirAlexTheFirst: No matter what happens, people will die. The men and women participating are all volunteers, and they all understand the severity of the situation and accept the risk to their lives.

SirAlexTheFirst: They believe, as do I, that if Whittyre is allowed to keep Verity, it will eventually lead to untold more death and bad happenings. Every second we wait is another second in which they might find what they're looking for.

SirAlexTheFirst: All necessary preparations are going smoothly, and our chances of success will not increase in the future, they will decrease. It is vital that we undertake this operation as soon as possible."

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard folds his hands and looks at Hunter with sympathy. "I understand that you do not wish to lead the operation. That's all right - we have others who are willing to do so. We would appreciate it

SirAlexTheFirst: if you accompanied the mission, but even that is not necessary - as I said earlier, only volunteers are going."

Dark Japheth: "You are a reasonable and wise man." Zao bows but immediately feels stupid because this isn't his place.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter nods, considering his options as he goes into silent thought::

Adm H Sopko: ::He finally sighs:: "I knew from the outset I probably wouldn't be able to change your mind about this. I believe in doing this, and want it to have every chance at success... I'll go."

Dark Japheth: Zao's head moves a little to the side as he looks at Hunter.

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard blinks, and can't keep a smile from twitching onto his face. "Didn't you just say you didn't believe in doing this?"

Adm H Sopko: "I said I didn't believe doing it now was a wise idea. However, considering my track record, it fits, doesn't it?"

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard just laughs and nods. "Well, then. What else can I help you with?"

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 1

SirAlexTheFirst: Abruptly, his smile vanishes as he looks at Aria.

MrSuperOblivious: (Ah, good old Andrew luck. Never fails. Unless of course, your talking armor saves)

AndrewRogue: "Ah... yes?"

Dark Japheth: Zao moves his eyesight back to leonard.

*OnlineHost*: Dark Japheth rolled 1 20-sided die: 10

SirAlexTheFirst: "Miss Arianna, might I speak with you privately for a short time?"

AndrewRogue: "As long as everyone is standing outside an unlocked door."

Dark Japheth: At this, Zao has to restrain a laugh.

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard nods seriously.

SirAlexTheFirst: Aurelia takes the hint and gets out.

Dark Japheth: Zao also walks outside.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter hands Aria his sword, and nods to her, then leaves. Lea blinks a bit at this, then follows. The cats do as well, though Jolt hesitates a bit before he does::::

Dark Japheth: Wait

Dark Japheth: We brought the cats?

Adm H Sopko: Yes

Dark Japheth: Zao will stand BEHIND aurelia when he sees them. Back in the hall.

SirAlexTheFirst: *commences in IM*

Dark Japheth: "Hunter... what happened in there?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter holds his kukri in his hand as he waits:: "In what way, exactly?"

Dark Japheth: "...That." He looks at the kukri. "Why did you feel need to give her a sword?"

Adm H Sopko: "She asked me for it."

Dark Japheth: Zao nods, looking slightly confused, then he gets it. "You had many good pros and cons, though. Why have you decided to do this?"

Adm H Sopko: ::He sighs:: "In the end... I guess it came down to my desire to stop Whittyre. Knowing what they're doing, I want to be able to stop that. I've risked my life

Adm H Sopko: for what I've considered right before... why is this any different, I thought? Maybe it was just a front because of denial or fear... but despite my misgivings,

Adm H Sopko: I'm going."

Dark Japheth: He nods. "The only reason I said anything before is... you did not seem like you wanted to do it."

Dark Japheth: "And therefore, I said it so that you would have a way out, without feeling like a coward."

Dark Japheth: "I apologize." He bows.

Adm H Sopko: ::He nods:: "At the moment, I still think it is unwise considering how little we know about them... I wanted to do it, but was hesitant as we might be walking into a deathtrap..."

Adm H Sopko: ::He shakes his head:: "It's alright, Zao... you're... actually very astute in your observations."

Dark Japheth: He shakes his head. "No, I just cheat."

Adm H Sopko: ::He blinks:: "Cheat?"

Dark Japheth: "Nothing. Its irrelevant. Do.. do you have that skill Aria does? That lets you speak without the mouth?"

Dark Japheth: "Can you find out whats happening in there?"

Adm H Sopko: ::He nods and seems to space out for a second::

Dark Japheth: (I like how Zao misdirects people from noticing the blatant invasion of privacy, and the roadburn...)

Adm H Sopko: "They're disagreeing over something... what, I don't know. She won't tell me. But nothing is irrelevant... please, share your wisdom"

Dark Japheth: "A lot is irrelevant. Do I need to know the specifics of your high and holy quest? No. I know merely that you are doing something good, and that is why I wish to join you."

Dark Japheth: He shrugs.

Adm H Sopko: ::He gives him an odd look, then sighs, shrugging it off and turning his attention back onto the matter at hand, filing this away for further inquiry::

Adm H Sopko: ::Meanwhile, Lea stares at Zao suspiciously, the cats mimic her::

Dark Japheth: Zao stands behind Aurelia to avoid the gaze of Kitty of Doom.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter just waits, kukri in hand and prepared::

Dark Japheth: "Whats going on? Is she in danger?"

Adm H Sopko: "I.. don't know... she's speaking kind of wierd..."

Dark Japheth: Zao tenses up. "..I don't know how much I can help." (Whats duration of haste? 1round/level?)

Dark Japheth: (or is it longer?)

SirAlexTheFirst: (World Doc. Read.)

SirAlexTheFirst: (Okay, it doesn't mention.)

SirAlexTheFirst: (Yes, 1 round/level)

Dark Japheth: (Gotcha.)

Dark Japheth: (No hastey yet then)

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter bites his lip, looking a bit nervous::

Dark Japheth: Zao interacts in the main chat. "...So what exactly are the pillars?"

*OnlineHost*: Adm H Sopko rolled 1 20-sided die: 5

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter doesn't even hear Zao, it seems::

Dark Japheth: He turns to Lea. "Do you know, Leatanna?"

Adm H Sopko: "Something about Nellix telling them there were 5 pillars that they needed to discover and get rid of... thats about all I know." ::She dodges the other meaning::

Dark Japheth: "..Ah."

Dark Japheth: "Physical pillars? Like, knocking down a temple sort of pillar?"

Adm H Sopko: ::She shrugs:: "I'm almost as clueless as you..."

Dark Japheth: Zao fidgets.

Dark Japheth: "...So... uhh..." He peeks around Aurelia. "Umm. Where'd you get those a..." he chokes a moment. "..adorable kittens?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Lea smiles, petting Shadow's head:: "They were presents from my parents when I was really little... I told them I liked the one Hunter got, so they bought me these..."

Dark Japheth: Zao smiles. "You have wonderful parents."

Dark Japheth: "How'd you get involved with this motley crew?"

Dark Japheth: (.... +2 points for me.)

Adm H Sopko: ::She sighs and points to Hunter:: "I kinda got dragged into this in Whittyre..."

Dark Japheth: He nods. "So did I. Although... its more like... the opportunity fell into my lap."

Dark Japheth: He looks hopeful that SOMEONE laughs at the joke.

Adm H Sopko: ::Nothing more than a disappointed sigh from Lea::

Dark Japheth: Aww.

Dark Japheth: She sucks.

AndrewRogue: (Better than someone beating you <.<)

Dark Japheth: True.

Adm H Sopko: (Or siccing her cats on you)

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 7

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter suddenly opens the door and waks in, sheathing his kukri as he does so::

Dark Japheth: Zao looks inside.

AndrewRogue: *Aria is standing, half relaxed, her hand on the weapon's hilt* "And why won't they?"

Dark Japheth: Zao walks inside.

AndrewRogue: "Are you blatently saying it won't work?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter's hand stays at the kukri's hilt hearing this argument, walking to back Aria up::

SirAlexTheFirst: "I don't consider it likely that they will simply release Verity to you, but you're more than welcome to try. Before the raid, of course, which leaves you little time, but... do as you wish." Leonard sighs.

AndrewRogue: "And what brought about this sudden change of heart Leonard?"

SirAlexTheFirst: "I am not going to answer that question."

AndrewRogue: "I don't like the idea that I'm walking off into some trap you know about."

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard shakes his head for about the twentieth time in ten minutes. "I'm leading you into no trap. Just go."

Dark Japheth: Zao fidgets, again.

AndrewRogue: *she looks exceptionally dissatisfied* "Fine. Did any of you have anything else you needed to talk to him about?"

*OnlineHost*: SirAlexTheFirst rolled 1 20-sided die: 7

Adm H Sopko: "Where can we find the strategic planners for the mission?"

Dark Japheth: Zao speaks. "Leonard, you do not know me. But I think you run an excellent company, and my father would be envious of you."

Dark Japheth: He bows. "I would like to know if you would like my assistance on your volunteer mission."

Dark Japheth: And his eyes flicker to Aria for a moment, and back to Leonard.

SirAlexTheFirst: "Mr. Taggart and Brother Joseph of Gabriel are the main planners, I believe. You know how to contact Brother Joseph, and Mr. Taggart can be found in the main briefing room on the third floor for another half hour."

Adm H Sopko: "Alright. Thank you, Leonard." ::He looks to everyone else::

AndrewRogue: "Oh, by the way Leonard. I didn't know you had telepathy circlet things too. Does this mean we can call you if we run into trouble?"

SirAlexTheFirst: to Zao: "Your aid would be most appreciated. I suggest you accompany this group."

SirAlexTheFirst: And to Aria: "It is not quite the same, I fear. "

AndrewRogue: "Ah. How's it different?"

SirAlexTheFirst: "Range, power..." *waves his hand* "It is not important. I cannot be directly contacted outside of this building."

AndrewRogue: SM

*OnlineHost*: AndrewRogue rolled 1 20-sided die: 3

AndrewRogue: 0

AndrewRogue: Yay

AndrewRogue: "Right then. After we're done, there's one more thing I wanted to try Hunter." *she hands back his sword*

SirAlexTheFirst: You zee nuzing! You hear nuzing!

Adm H Sopko: ::He accepts it and straps it back around his waist:: "What would that be, Aria?"

Adm H Sopko: (SHULTZ!)

AndrewRogue: "Going back and seeing if we can't somehow talk Verity out of their hands before the raid goes off. I know you're going to be needed for this though... but we can talk about it later." *she smiles weakly*

Adm H Sopko: ::He understands a little better of what she was talking about before, and nods to her:: "Okay... we'll talk later." ::He nods to Leonard:: "Thank you for your time."

Dark Japheth: Zao bows. "It was an honor to speak with you." He leaves,.

SirAlexTheFirst: Leonard nods back, and keeps working.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter exits to the third floor, but Lea stays behind for a moment::

Dark Japheth: Once outside, Hunter says to Zao. "He... he wanted to kill Aria."

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter nods:: "I know..."

Dark Japheth: He says quietly. "And you did not slay him?

AndrewRogue: *Aria nods and follows them out*

AndrewRogue: "I don't think I should set foot in this building again."

Dark Japheth: Zao- "It would seem to be wise. You have many enemies."

Dark Japheth: oh, and Zao said to hunter, earlier. :P

Adm H Sopko: "I've done some stupid things in my time, but attacking the President in his office would outclass everything."

Dark Japheth: At this, Zao nods. "I think... I think that it would be possible, no, even likely, that the Garuda bird has much influence here." He is quiet in contemplation for a moment.

AndrewRogue: "The what?"

Adm H Sopko: "What?"

Dark Japheth: "I am sorry." He sighs, and chants what must be a mantra. "Garuda is a spirit. A spirit that serves the wicked gods, as a chariot."

Dark Japheth: "This whole place seems like a stepping stone to something greater and more manipulative than the Yarovan."

AndrewRogue: ~Not while we're still in the building Zao~

Dark Japheth: "Like... a Herald?"

Dark Japheth: He nods. "That does disquiet me a little bit. I am sorry."

Dark Japheth: He is silent.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter says nothing, and enters the third floor briefing room::

AndrewRogue: ~We can discuss it once we leave. I'm... I'm just nervous. I get the feeling I'm lucky to be out of that room alive. Let's not press it.~

Dark Japheth: He nods. "Can I ask how your words speak to my mind?"

AndrewRogue: "To be honest, I have no idea. I used to have to use a circlet like Hunter."

Dark Japheth: At this, he laughs. "Yeah. You are. Ok. That clears up a bit."

theflyingmenace has entered the room.

Adm H Sopko: ::Lea eventually catches up to them::

theflyingmenace: Aurelia...trials after.

theflyingmenace: Trails.

Dark Japheth: (Woah, new name. Hi.)

SirAlexTheFirst: (Apparently, Kirk, Staci, and Rachel have all fused.)

Dark Japheth: (Kirstachel)

theflyingmenace: ((No, Kirk and Staci are on Rachel's name because we're in her room.))

AndrewRogue: (Doooing what? *looks innocent*)

theflyingmenace: Having a wild threesome. Of course. Everyone does it.

Dark Japheth: (Oh, you kids.)

SirAlexTheFirst: Wow, I did not need that mental image.

theflyingmenace: Yes you did.

Dark Japheth: (Now you can't sleep. You have to stay up. And run stuff.)

theflyingmenace: If you'd come join, Alex, Rachel wouldn't be quite so left out. She feels like a third wheel.

Dark Japheth: XD

SirAlexTheFirst: What, Luke isn't doing his job, huh

Adm H Sopko: Don't you know? Alex would inflict bodily harm unto her!

theflyingmenace: Okay, game.

SirAlexTheFirst: Is Rachel even there?

SirAlexTheFirst: Oy.

SirAlexTheFirst: SO everyone is headed on down to the briefing room.

Adm H Sopko: Yes

AndrewRogue: "Hey Lea. You okay?"

Adm H Sopko: ::He looks a bit confused and conflicted, but she nods:: "Yeah... I'm fine..."

AndrewRogue: "...you sure?" *she looks at her a bit confused*

SirAlexTheFirst: It's quite easy to find, as all of the armed folks are heading in and out of it. The room itself is a tangled mess of charts, books, papers and maps, with a huge schematic covering all the walls and ceiling.

Adm H Sopko: ::He looks around for anyone who looks like they may be in charge, or who is barking orders::

SirAlexTheFirst: Lea will recognize Mr. Taggart as the man standing in the center of a bunch of folks shouting at each other (Zao also recognizes him).

Adm H Sopko: (Mr. Taggart... hee hee)

Dark Japheth: Zao watches him, but says nothing as he's out of Silent Detect Thoughts spells.

SirAlexTheFirst: Taggart is a tall, stern looking man with a very military bearing, even as he argues.

Adm H Sopko: ::Lea points him out to Hunter, and they head over:: <H> "Mr. Taggart? Hunter Sopko, Leatanna Scarlett, Arianna Lanathan, Aurelia Liadon and Zao-Lot Isawa reporting in."

SirAlexTheFirst: "... there's just no way that we can take them on. Everyone needs to be as low as possible. We don't have any room for heavy backup, and they'd outpower it anyways. Morning, Lea. You're the group that knows the place?"

Adm H Sopko: ::Lea nods:: <L> "Yeah, Jim, thats about the long and short of it."

theflyingmenace: Aurelia is hoping that Lea and Hunter know the place better than she does.

Dark Japheth: So, ironically, is Zao.

SirAlexTheFirst: "All right. Front doors, or roof?"

theflyingmenace: "Perhaps both."

Adm H Sopko: "The roof is decieving. It's much bigger on the inside than out, and anyone entering from there would be exposed on the descent. Of course, it's still better than

Adm H Sopko: knocking on the front door."

SirAlexTheFirst: "Going in through the roof, we face less armor, less resistance, and get surprise. The problem is getting there, though - and we might have to face the exosuits going that way."

theflyingmenace: "If I were given some time to prepare spells, I might be able to memorize some that are especially suited to this."

Dark Japheth: "And I can create a diversion. Drawing the Exosuits and security to the front door, if you should want it."

SirAlexTheFirst: "So can most of our mages. Sure you don't want to save your spells till the inside?"

theflyingmenace: "Yes, that may be better."

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter drifts off to the schematic of the lobby, picking out he exact teleporter he went to. After that, he looks through the plans for any room resembling where he ended up::

SirAlexTheFirst: Search check

*OnlineHost*: Adm H Sopko rolled 1 20-sided die: 8

AndrewRogue: (Take 20 <.<)

AndrewRogue: (With Assists)

Adm H Sopko: 16

MrSuperOblivious: (night ya'll)

Dark Japheth: Nighty.

SirAlexTheFirst: You find the hangars and the exosuit command center fairly easily.

Adm H Sopko: Is it marked as such, or at all?

SirAlexTheFirst: Yep.

Adm H Sopko: Do they have any indication on how to get there, like, which teleporter to take?

SirAlexTheFirst: Yes, there are numbers matching up with the teleporter numbers.

Adm H Sopko: ::Hunter begins to wonder how they got detailed plans like these::

Adm H Sopko: <L> "How many people in all are going?"

theflyingmenace: "I don't know...but I would suggest we get more information first. Where he's being held, preferably. I doubt it's in that map."

AndrewRogue: (Here there be Verity!)

SirAlexTheFirst: "No idea. Any of you see anything that looked like a prison, or holding cells, or an interrogation center, or anything?"

theflyingmenace: "I saw holding cells when I was inside, but he wasn't in them."

Adm H Sopko: "Interrogation center, yes. Prison, no."

Adm H Sopko: ::That was Hunter::

SirAlexTheFirst: *to Aurelia* "You looked in all of them? You're sure?"

SirAlexTheFirst: And to Hunter: "Where? Do you remember the number?"

theflyingmenace: "Not all of them. I'm not sure whether it was the only one or not."

Adm H Sopko: ::He traces his finger from the com room to the teleporters, getting the right one and looking around for the matching number::

SirAlexTheFirst: Search check

*OnlineHost*: Adm H Sopko rolled 1 20-sided die: 11

Adm H Sopko: 19

SirAlexTheFirst: To Aurelia: "Do you remember the number of the teleporter you took, or any way to get there?"

theflyingmenace: Wisdom check to remember?

SirAlexTheFirst: Sure.

*OnlineHost*: theflyingmenace rolled 1 20-sided die: 13

theflyingmenace: Um...20.

theflyingmenace: I'm assuming she can recall the number and give it to him.

SirAlexTheFirst: All right.

SirAlexTheFirst: Taggart looks grim. "Thought so, that one's not on the charts."

SirAlexTheFirst: Hunter is unable to find anything, now, after taking some time to search.

theflyingmenace: "Are they outdated?"

SirAlexTheFirst: "Possibly, in some areas. More likely that we just don't have the schema for that part."

Adm H Sopko: ::He points to the one he took:: "This is the one I took to get to the interrogation room... or rooms. It leads to a small hallway which I assume is the interrogation area"

SirAlexTheFirst: "Probably. All right, these areas and the main lab look like our best bets, then. Where do you folk suggest the mission head for?"

Adm H Sopko: ::He looks to Aria:: "Do you have anything to add? You were in there too."

AndrewRogue: "Ah?" *she shakes her head* "All I saw was where they kept the Exo-Suits and the locker rooms."

AndrewRogue: "Neither of which is any real use to us."

Adm H Sopko: ::He nods: "Alright." ::He looks to Aurelia:: "It's your call... where is he more likely to be, do you think?"

theflyingmenace: Aurelia just shakes her head. "I have no idea. I don't even know what they want with him, so it's hard to say."

Adm H Sopko: ::He looks to Taggart:: "How sure are we that they don't know we're coming?"

SirAlexTheFirst: "Not very. If they do know, and we can't break in, we leave and go to plan B."

Adm H Sopko: "Which is...?"

theflyingmenace: PLAN B: Take off, and nuke the entire site from orbit.

Adm H Sopko: It's the only way to be sure

AndrewRogue: (I like Plan B.)

AndrewRogue: (Can we promote it to Plan A?)

theflyingmenace: Got a nuke?

Adm H Sopko: We lose Verity, Bandon, Jerri and Karn, but meh

SirAlexTheFirst: "Don't worry about it."

theflyingmenace: Aurelia just stares at him for a long moment. "That makes me worry more. Perhaps you should explain it."

SirAlexTheFirst: Taggart ignores her, and speaks to the group. "Pick a spot."

AndrewRogue: "You seem to be dodging an important question."
