[Roseli and Ten are in a van outside Cayiltech. And some distance away, since Cayiltech is in a remote area and they don't want to be seen. Ten's mucking with electronics on the compound. Roseli's... smoking maybe. I dunno.] [Go.] * Roseli is actually drumming her fingers and chewing gum rather like she wishes it were a cigarette. (Silly question: What's going on?) ( They getting blow'd up ) (Yeah... why?) ( You don't know! You're not in the compound! However, they asked Ten to create a diversion, and Ten hasn't actually been able to do it yet.] ) ( You do get the comm talk ) (Right, what does it take for me know they're taking rocket fire?) ( You could ask them what's going on, or look through a camera, or something. ) (I'll take cameras and alerted bots for $500) ( They're not on anything you're currently looking at, so roll for it! ) (Made by lots) [Ten spots them in a security camera! There's a bot going after them.] (Penalty on hacking roll to take that bot over?) * Ten speaks comms "What? What are you doing over there?" * Roseli also talks over coms, and you can get what she says in the other channel. Hotaru, can you see their sutation? (Situation) * Ten orders the bot to turn around. * Roseli speaks over the coms: "Who's Helena?" There was a missile attack that I did not anticipate and the other team has been split. I have located Keiko and Luana. Do you know where this building two is? (I'd presume so, Brett?) And how far are the girls from our current location? [Ten does, and, uh... I don't know. ( 1/4th a km, I s'pose ) (Basically, Rose wants to know if she can get there without a problem.) Yes, and about a fourth of a kilometer. * Ten orders the bot to lead the girls to building two! (It was about 500 meters from our van to the base itself, but you were in a different van.) ( She can get there. Without a problem? Remains to be seen :P ) Stop the bot. If you wish. Are there any obstacles between us and the girls? * Ten stops the bot. (Brett?) [There are! Buildings and that sudden rubble barrier. But you can get around it by going... East? Sure. East.] (I search east for bots cameras and soldiers) [There are two soldiers, no bots!] There are two soldiers on the shortest path between us and them. (Any bots in fireing range?) * Roseli hms, clearly displeased with this notion. "Can you handle them with bots before we reach them?" ( Not over there. ) Only if you drive very slowly. I would need to move an undamaged one from a different area. Would you like me to do that? How long would this take? (Actualy, wait, Brett? Did we bring my toys?) ( Possibly ) (Do I, or do I not have a riffle? And how long to bring in an actual battlebot?) (We have a van. We totally did.) ( If you're dropping it off from where you are now, several minutes. ) (And if I were to use one of the bots inside the compound?) ( Less time. ) It would take about a minute to get one in place. Do it. I don't want trouble with guards. As you wish. (Whups missed by two, so unless that's one of the bots I previously compromised it's going to take a bit longer) * Ten mutters to herself. "Do not resist me." [Ten not does get a bot.] * Ten tries again! (There we go!) [Ten gets a bot now.] Ahh, now you see the light. Go forth and destroy. * Ten sends the bot to kill the two soldiers. [The bot takes care of them handily.] It has been done. * Ten orders the bot to kill anybody else dressed like a guard and sends it deeper into the compound. * Ten then goes back to searching cameras for the missing guardians. [Ten doesn't find them ] * Roseli steps on the gas and drives on towards the girls. "You might want to consider keeping one of those bots." I have yet to find the guardians, and the I still have control of the one protecting the wards. * Roseli nods. "Good." [It's raining now!] * Roseli DRIVES. THROUGH THE RAIN. THROUGH THE RAIN. THROUGH THE RAIN. (IN THE RAIN.) [Roseli gets to the base. The guard station is unmanned!] (Can we keep going or do we have to get out to reach the girls?) ( You can keep going, but a van is pretty conspicuous. ) (Righto.) Here's where we get wet. Come on. (Did we know there was a chance of rain tonight?) ( How could you? You missed last session. ) (But we came anyway!) (And did stuff offcamera) ( Well, anyhow, there's rain. ) (I'm just wondering if Hotaru's got anything waterproof.) (Take the raincoat.) (Like it matters.) Feh. It is times like this that I wish I were a weather goddess instead. * Roseli parks, pulls on her jacket, and gets out of the van. Oh no, she is wet! But she'd be more wet if she didn't have a jacket. ( Ok, join the other channel when ready. ) * Hotaru puts on the jacket that Roseli got for here, but only puts one arm through the sleave, the other she keeps inside to hold Ten to her chest. * Hotaru gets out of the van and follows Rose into the rain. * Roseli starts half-jogging her way to the girls, keeping an eye out for baddies. * Hotaru follows Rose a few steps behind and keeps no eyes out but Tens on her. [You get wet.] (I think we already established that.) ( And I said to join the other channel :P ) (Oh, okay!)
