Setting: Atlanta has called everyone in for the debrief to my quarters.
Bobius411: ::Justane sits in the cell,
mask off, staring at the gaurds, going from one to the other with his
pinball-like eyes::
Bobius411: ::One of the guards
opens the door and motions for him to get out. Holding his mask in one
hand, he walks out, following the guard to Atlanta's room::
BossManAlfaASA: ::wheels over to a
table and smiles at the Gaurds:: "Go away. I trust him not to kill me.
Go join the hunt for the intruders."
Bobius411: ::Justane sits:: Can I
have my staff back?
BossManAlfaASA: Justo--ane, come
in. Gabe, get your unfortunately inebriated ass in a chair.
Bobius411: ::Scratches his chin::
I could use a shave, too.
Bobius411: Intruders?
geORGeYpORGeYasa: Yes m'am!
Bobius411: ::Justane listens, as he
turns and unlocks each ring of his armor::
BossManAlfaASA: ahh right. ::taps
a memo into a padd on her wheel chair:: After this meeting the staff will
place you in some quarters, we don't have much of yours, but it'll be in
there.
Bobius411: ::He takes off the big
assortment of armor, revealing a dirty tank top underneath::
BossManAlfaASA: ok. At 2254, an
unknown human male entered this city.
Bobius411: All right then...
BossManAlfaASA: It appears he's --
and the other male that accompanied him -- are from the United States.
Bobius411: The what?
BossManAlfaASA: mostly based on the
fact that they aren't Incan descendants....ahh...a major world power in
this time.
Bobius411: Ah... time shift...
thats right.
BossManAlfaASA: anyway, the guard
tailing them lost them in the town square. Justane, here are pictures.
Apprehend them. Bring them here, Gabe will go with you, to assist you as
much as he can, I'll also be out looking for them...
BossManAlfaASA: but given
my...current...abiltities, I'll just be calling you guys in.
Bobius411: Give me my staff, I'll
have them here weeping before you... and I work alone.
Bobius411: ::Takes the pictures,
looking intently::
BossManAlfaASA: They're looking to
find out where and why this city is here.
BossManAlfaASA: They don't speak
the language, either. So that will stand out too, no doubt.
BossManAlfaASA: Fine, leave us
stewing in here, but don't hurt them anymore than stictly nessecary...
Bobius411: ::Justane clicks his
armor back onto place, figuring he can go another few hours without
showering. He puts his mask on, grabbing his staff from a runner on his way
out::
BossManAlfaASA: Justane...
Bobius411: Yes?
BossManAlfaASA: ::about to say
leave the mask, but stops:: Be careful, I don't know how angry the city
may still be...
Bobius411: I know how to avoid
being seen.
BossManAlfaASA: and umm...here.
Bobius411: ::Stops::
Bobius411: Yes?
BossManAlfaASA: ::tosses justane a
leather wallet with a badge in it:: Show them the metal thing, say
::switches to english:: "Come with me".
Bobius411: ::Catches:: "Kom with
meh"?
BossManAlfaASA: Good enough.
Bobius411: ::Pockets it:: I'll be
off.
geORGeYpORGeYasa: hahah.
Bobius411: ::He dashes off down the
hall.::
Runner: ::As he walks off:: Damn,
that thing was heavy...
BossManAlfaASA: ::looks at Gabe::
English is the second hardest language in the world.
Bobius411: ::Justane leaps out of a
window at the end of the hall, to the
disbelief of nearby people. He does the famous swing off the flagpole,
making his way to the town square::
geORGeYpORGeYasa: Is it really??
Bobius411: ::Rooftop to rooftop::
BossManAlfaASA: Yup, well, probably
3rd hardest now. Formal Old Atlantien is damn hard to be literate in.
Bobius411: ::Hangs briefly from a
ledge, snatching a newspaper out of the wind and spotting his photo. He
tosses it and continues::
geORGeYpORGeYasa: Heheh, Well
ain't that some shit.
Bobius411: ::Squats on the corner
of a rooftop above the square, batman style, and scans the crowd for his
men::
~~ACTION~~ He spots them. The urban camo stands out.
Bobius411: ::Justane clambers down
the building, shoving through the crowd, untill he comes upon his targets::
BossManAlfaASA: Gabe...how drunk
are you?
BossManAlfaASA: :::wheels to a
cabinet beside her bed::
Bobius411: ::He grabs the wallet,
then taps them on the shoulders::
Bobius411: "Kom wiff meh"
geORGeYpORGeYasa: Oh, I'm pretty toasty, Tequila will do that to you.
geORGeYpORGeYasa: ::smiles::
Bobius411: ::Shows them the badge::
Intruders: ::look a little confused, but nods after a moment:: Where? (english)
geORGeYpORGeYasa: ::begins singing
the tequila song::
Bobius411: ::Justane turns and begins walking back to the place, glancing over his shoulder to make sure they follow::
Intruder #2: They don't speak english, follow me, Mark.
Intruders: ::follow Justane back to the building::
Bobius411: ::Walks in, timeskip to
entering Atlanta's office:: Didn't even need to hurt them... too bad....
Intruders: ::they are both about 6
feet, armed to the teeth, they have no tatoos, no tags in their clothing,
except one tag with cyrillic writing on it, and are heavily muscled with
gold fillings::
BossManAlfaASA:::chuckles::
BossManAlfaASA: ::looks at the
men:: Ohh, I'm guessing Marine Force Recon or Army Green Berets, A Team.
::in English:: Sit down gentlement.
Bobius411: They dress like the
denizens of the poor zones... trying to look
rich and tough...
BossManAlfaASA: ::in Atlantien::
The idea is that they not be traceable back to their country of origin.
Bobius411: ::Crosses his arms,
leaning against the wall, staff in one hand, always at ready::
BossManAlfaASA: ::tosses a
translator to the two men:: OK gentlemen. These devices allow you to
understand us. We've already programmed them to handle Atlantien to
English. now, do answer our questions.
BossManAlfaASA: Who's orders are
you acting on?
Bobius411: Yes... please answer, I
would be most interested in who lets their agents look like street trash.
Intruders: Mark Amerson, TJ O'Niel.
123571511, 98752301
BossManAlfaASA: ::sighs:: That's
name and serial number. They're soldiers from my old country.
BossManAlfaASA: My Dad did this
kind of stuff before he settled down.
Bobius411: I figured as much....
the council gives most of their soldiers numbers.
BossManAlfaASA: ::to the soldiers::
His name was Lt Colenol Michael Apostol. Green Berets. 1962 to 1969. You
were sent here, if I'm right, by the chairmen, joint chiefs of staff. To
investigate an enemy camp.
BossManAlfaASA: Did you crap your
pants when you saw this place? This city that America won't be able to
reproduce for a few hundred years?
Bobius411: ::Chuckles::
Bobius411: ::Cracks his knuckles,
the only time his hand leaves his staff::
BossManAlfaASA: ::grins::
BossManAlfaASA: Gabe, go call
America. Get connected to the pentagon. Tell them you have two Green
Berets, Amerson and O'Niell. Give their serial numbers, state your
officers captured them when they invaded our city.
BossManAlfaASA: Tell them to put
you through to the Chairman.
BossManAlfaASA: Justane, learn what
you can about these individuals, don't hurt them.
BossManAlfaASA: maybe get a
telepath or two on the job.
Bobius411: ::Steps forward::
Bobius411: Righto.
BossManAlfaASA: When the Bush sends
Powell down here tomorrow or so we need to know everything.
Bobius411: ::Ignores the confusion
of names, not asking questions yet::
BossManAlfaASA: Oh, and Justane....
Bobius411: Yes?
BossManAlfaASA: Teach them how to
respect women. They seem to think they're the first class citizens here,
they were noticed because they didn't offer their seats to an old woman.
BossManAlfaASA: When I come back
from my treatments tomorrow, I expect them to greet me properly.
Bobius411: Bastards. ::He says
with a sarcastic tone::
BossManAlfaASA: ::wheels towards
the door:: ::stops:: Justane. I don't care about Atlantien vs. Human.
But you should always hold the door for a lady.
BossManAlfaASA: :::exits,
smirking:::
Bobius411: ::Taps the door open
with his staff for her::
