<La_ST> So let's take a short look at our cast, while we wait for Asmo...

Lady_Samantha raises her hand

<Lady_Samantha> (look at me ;;))

<La_ST> Okay, here we have Lady Samantha, lovely wife of Lord Maxwell...

Lady_Samantha smiles sweetly for the cameras.

<La_ST> Unfortunately she will be without her husband on this trip. He said he couldn't leave his plants.

<Lady_Samantha> I like that.

<La_ST> So we have Wild Bild Irvine, the tough pilot and gunsmith...

<Bill_Irvine> Yeeeaahhh!

Bill_Irvine blows a puff of smoke from his cigar into the camera

<La_ST> Then Dr.Helga Eriksdottir, the no-nonsense geophysicist with a hot love for volcanoes...

Dr_Helga waves at the crowd and bows.

Asm0dai hurries in, shouting wildly...

Lady_Samantha waves to Nate

<La_ST> (Hello Asmo)

Asm0dai trips on a bottle and continues rolling

Asm0dai falls down in front of everyone...

Asm0dai runs to the changing room and leaves the stage...

<Bill_Irvine> (Hi Asmo)

<Asm0dai> (hey all...)

<La_ST> Then there is this strikingly beautiful Asian mystery woman, but she will be encountered in due time :-)

<La_ST> And not to forget the very American Mr.Raiser who is just preparing to leave his work place and join us, too

<Asm0dai> (I am not as American as Wild Bill here is ;))

Nathan_Raiser puts on 99 Luft Ballons and heads to finish himself.

<La_ST> Today we have Feb 6th, 1980, in a world which is almost like ours, but not quite.

<Lady_Samantha> (wednesday)

<La_ST> In the shadows, darkness lurks, and while Mankind is heading towards greatness with new inventions and ingenuity, there are forces in the dark that work to other, more sinister goals.

<La_ST> Mankind is still led forward to the belief that there is almost nothing that science can't achieve, but unfortunately the enthusiasts soon find themselves in sinister nets of darkness that snatch them away and make them work for darker goals....

<La_ST> As the progress in all fields is not only about bringing Mankind a brighter future, but also there are forces who try to use it to enforce a greater control...

<La_ST> They snatch away promising young students into their machineries of oppression, lead their brilliant thought to a darker destiny...

<La_ST> But fortunately there are others who oppose such sinister machinations...

<La_ST> They try to bring humankind back to the right track, free them from oppression and bring upon a brighter future...

<La_ST> And these are formostly the glorious Etherites :-) who can fight the evil menacing Big Bad Conspiracy on they own turf.

<La_ST> They are helped by others of similar ilk, even though it is more difficult for those to achieve any victories, as reality frowns more and more on the mystickal approach...

<La_ST> And so the torch of hope is carried by the Sons of Etherites, and we should encourage them: Etherites Go!

<La_ST> Unbeknowns to the Big Bad Conspiracy, a big convention is held in a remote place in the United States

<La_ST> They set up a wild and exotic arts festival in a desert that is so unusual that amongst the whole chaos there, the real activities can be safely hidden.

<La_ST> (For the curious: I snatched this: Burning Man )

<La_ST> As this is set up every year for quite a while now, a whole underground congress center has been erected by now...

<La_ST> At that convention, the members of that group have been approached by two competing Scientists, Dr.Miller and Prof.Merak who both wanted to put together an expedition richt into the jungles of the Amazon.

<La_ST> Prof.Merak talked to a renowned guide and adventurer who should take him to a certain tempel where some alien artifacts and knowledge were rumoured to be.

<La_ST> Likewise, Dr.Miller approached Lady Samantha and Wild Bill Irvine to take her into the jungle.

<La_ST> The groups were properly outfitted and went to the specified location...

<La_ST> Prof.Merak just reached the temple and set up camp there.

<La_ST> (Okay, now we start to get there for real. Sorry for the length of the intro)

<La_ST> (Switch to Dr_Miller end Sam + Bill)

Dr_Miller is a women in her mid-40es.

<Dr_Miller> She has medium brown hair, put into a tight bun and wear somewhat outmoded spectables, but a practical jungle outfit...

<Lady_Samantha> (we're enroute to the temple?)

Dr_Miller and her group are in the cockpit of the B-52. Dr.Millr looks at Bill

<Dr_Miller> (worried) And you are sure your machine can land here?

<Dr_Miller> This is mainly jungle here after all

<Bill_Irvine> Oh Lady, Lady.... I can land my baby everywhere you wish, just show me the place...

Bill_Irvine let's out a puff of smoke

Dr_Miller frowns a bit at being called "Baby"

<Lady_Samantha> (I think the plane is the "baby")

<Dr_Miller> Well, Mr.Irvine, I think then you should try to get down over there...

Bill_Irvine has a cigar in his mouth, just as usual, even when he's flying

Dr_Miller points at a patch of jungel that doesn't look exactly like a free plain

Bill_Irvine tries to get a look at the spot Dr_Miller chose

<La_ST> There are some trees less than around, but it doesn't look too promising

<Bill_Irvine> Over there?

<Dr_Miller> Yes, Mr.Irvine

Bill_Irvine checks the place for a free spot his B52 could fit over there

<La_ST> Nathan Raiser currently set up a camp in the vicinity and hears the sound of a not really small plane approaching his location

<La_ST> There is *just* the place for the plane. It takes some pilot skill to get her down properly

<La_ST> (Ok, Bill do I get a nice description of your aerial skills or do you want to roll?)

Bill_Irvine flies a small circle above the patch and examines it closer to get a better image of the place before preparing the landing

<Bill_Irvine> (You will get your description. The extras I rolled for on the plane don't need rolls, do they?)

<La_ST> While he flies the circle, he sees a cigar shaped silver object in some distance in the air

<La_ST> (I saw how you rolled them, so no (at the moment, at least) )

<Dr_Miller> Are you *sure* you can land there?

<La_ST> (Sam - you see that there should be *no way* for a normal B-52 to get down at that place in one piece...)

<Bill_Irvine> Oh Lady, sure I am sure.. Aren't ya? Do not fear my pretty... I will bring ya down safe and sound... As sure as my name is Bill Irvine!

Dr_Miller wrings her hands.

<Dr_Miller> I would certainly hope so. There is irreplaceable equipment on board

Lady_Samantha asks ... umms no runway.... do you have anothe way to get the plane down?

<La_ST> (Nathan: The plane sounds are now pretty loud and they do not go away...)

Bill_Irvine goes into a slight dive closing in on the patch, then circling it while going down, pulling the plane a little bit omore to the side than it would be needed to show off

Dr_Miller looks a bit pale as she has some doubts after all

Lady_Samantha watches the gauges and meters

Bill_Irvine stops lowering the altitude as they are just some meters above the trees and flies straight toward the chosen patch

Dr_Miller's two assistents Bob Grant and Sarah Gordon are also looking somewhat uncomfortable at the scenery

Lady_Samantha is wearing her adventuring clothes and boots, as well as her usual paraphenalia

Nick change: Lady_Samantha -> Lady_BatGirl

<La_ST> (LOL)

Nick change: Lady_BatGirl -> Lady_Samantha

<La_ST> (Nathan you have the impression that plane almost grazed your head now)

<Lady_Samantha> she's applied bug repellent to the frew places that are exposed

Bill_Irvine goes down a bit more as he closes in on the patch, goes down as soon as the open are starts and leaves are blown away by the jets. The trees on the other side of the patch come closer

<Bill_Irvine> YEEEEHHHHHHAAAA!!!

Lady_Samantha sheck her staff light --- shakeing it and turning on the flashlight beam

Dr_Miller decides she'd better close her eyes

<Lady_Samantha> checking her various equipment, doing her away from civilization equipment

Bill_Irvine lets the trees come closer and closer, it almost seems he wants to risk a crash with the trees

<Lady_Samantha> (err donning)

Bob_Grant is a tall, lanky black man, also equipped with jungle gear

<Bob_Grant> I always knew I would someday die in the name of Science...

Lady_Samantha offers radios to Bill and Dr_Miller

Bob_Grant looks almost fatalistically at the others

<La_ST> (Sam: Erm, it looks as if we just crash to the ground, I'd say...)

<Lady_Samantha> are we down

Bill_Irvine pushes a button as they almost hit the trees and the jets start moving, slowing down the plane as they turn to the front, then turn downward, so the plane hovers above the ground, the trees right in front of the windshield

<Dr_Miller> Not yet. And I hope we will be stillin one piece if we go down

<Bob_Grant> I told you, doc, we should have looked for a heli to get us here

<La_ST> (Nathan - you now realise that big plane you heard is *landing* almost on top of your encampment)

<Bill_Irvine> Hey, say nothing against my baby.... I put shitloads of work into her. She never disappointed me

Bill_Irvine s plane is still hovering over the ground, not moving anywhere

<Bob_Grant> Well, I hope she won't disappoint *me* either

Bob_Grant looks a bit glum

<La_ST> (Nathan? Are you still here???)

<Lady_Samantha> (given that Bill appears to have the ladning well in hand, Sam does her thing and prepares for adventuring

Bill_Irvine opens the window next to him, holds out his head and looks down.

<Bill_Irvine> Hey, where's ya problem? We are at a stable altitude of some feet above the ground I'd say

Lady_Samantha chercks her weapons and ammo, and her knives and misc equiiopment

<Dr_Miller> This is most impressive!

<Bob_Grant> We are not dead?

Bob_Grant lets out a big sigh of relief

Bill_Irvine almost drops his cigar, so he pulls his head back in.

<Bill_Irvine> Hey Lady... I told ya, there is a shitload of work in my baby and it never leaves me alone... She is reliable as I am, Lady... Science! at it's best, just like my guns

Dr_Miller smiles, a bit stressed

<Lady_Samantha> her pack and other stuff.... firstaid kik, survival kit etc.

<Dr_Miller> Yes, it would seem so, Mr.Irvine

<Dr_Miller> Thank you ...

<Dr_Miller> We should now take out our equipment and set up camp...

Lady_Samantha gives Dr_Miller a radio

<Lady_Samantha> Bill.... are you staying?

Bill_Irvine slowly let's the plane drop a little bit, of course to pull a stunt this way, before he slowly lowers the altitude, towards the ground

<La_ST> (Bill, roll Int + Perc)

<La_ST> (Int + Alert)

Bill_Irvine rolled 3d10 dice and got: 10, 5, 7

<La_ST> (You remember that there was a silver cigar shaped object approaching this place)

<Bill_Irvine> Ummm... Has anyone else seen this strange object just moments ago?

Lady_Samantha takes her etheric binocs and looks for the object

<La_ST> (Ok, Sam, Perc+Alert, diff 9)

<La_ST> (then diff 6)

Lady_Samantha rolled 4d10 dice and got: 4, 9, 9, 10

<La_ST> (You see the cigar shape, too, and with the binocs you see it is a zeppelin. A pretty big one, as it seems)

<Lady_Samantha> what do I see

<Lady_Samantha> it appears to be a zeppelin?

Dr_Miller sqints outside, too

<Bill_Irvine> Ah... Yer checking.. So what is it? I have to hold my baby in place

<Dr_Miller> Well, it *could* be some zeppelin, couldn't it?

<La_ST> (Switch to our mysterious Asian woman)

<La_ST> Mysterious Asian woman: You wake up in a room that has some scorch marks at the walls, and ground

Asian_Woman gets up.

Asian_Woman staggers a bit and her head hurts

Asian_Woman rubs her temples

<La_ST> There is a somewhat scorched smell in the air, too, and your clothes are slightly singed, too, but mostly intact

Asian_Woman looks around with a painful look on her face

Asian_Woman 's going to leave through the door and tries to open it, but doesn't succeed cause the door has been scorched too.

<Bill_Irvine> (brb, bathroom calls)

<La_ST> (Yup. You don't need to roll to break it open- after all you did that roll before ^_^)

Asian_Woman pushes against the door to open it, but doesn't manage at first. Then when she pushes against the door with her shoulder it opens and she almost falls into the hall.

<Asian_Woman> Hello?

<La_ST> (This part is pretty intact, there are no scorch marks around here

<La_ST> Whatever happened in that room was confined to it, it seems)

<Bill_Irvine> (bak)

<La_ST> (The hall is empty, just as the room had been

<La_ST> You feel the ground and walls vibrating, as if some machine is running

Asian_Woman wonders where she is.

<La_ST> (You have the vague impression you should know where you are. As you walked outside, it seemed as if you feet wanted to move in a certain direction

<La_ST> It was as if your feet remembered something that your brain doesn't consciously

Asian_Woman goes to wander around

<Asian_Woman> (I need to figure out where I am)

<Asian_Woman> (I'm carefull though, as I might have been captured by someone)

<La_ST> (You have the impression that you have been here before, though)

<Nathan_Raiser> (be back in 5 mins)

<Nathan_Raiser> (please continue)

<La_ST> (The hall is empty. Hm. I think it is best you describe your way to the cockpit yourself *g* It is your zeppelin after all!)

<Asian_Woman> (LOL)

Asian_Woman follows the coridor and opens another door and enters a large hall with a nice wooden stairs in it.

<La_ST> (It all feels somewhat familar, but you can't really remember anything explicitly about having been here

Asian_Woman heads up the stairs

<Asian_Woman> (oh darn, don't go up the stairs, only room that could fit the corridor one is the one on the same floor as the cockpit)

<La_ST> (Hehe)

Asian_Woman heads through a double door on the other side of the hall and looks out on something that is comparable to the cockpit of some futuristic spaceship.

<La_ST> (Somehow you don't feel out of place here, though.)

Asian_Woman looks at the large table that rises from the floor in front of her.

<Asian_Woman> (maptable)

<La_ST> (There is a map on it, of a region that you recognize as Southern America, Amazon

Asian_Woman tries to remember why this place comes so familiar to her.

<Nathan_Raiser> (back)

Asian_Woman walks over the the flight controls. A large steering wheel with several levers and nice overhead controls.

<La_ST> (There is a mark at a region there. When you look out of the windows you see jungle down there

<La_ST> You know what you have to do with those controls

<Asian_Woman> What am I doing here?

Asian_Woman speaks aloud as if that helps her refresh her memories.

<La_ST> (No answer, sorry)

Asian_Woman stands behind the steering wheel and looks for a spot to put the Zeppelin down.

<La_ST> (You are slowly moving fordward, you see)

Asian_Woman thinks "Zeppelin?? How in God's name did I know that ?"

<La_ST> Forward you you some mostly overgrown ruins of an acient temple

<La_ST> In from of the temple there seems tto be some tents

<La_ST> In front

Asian_Woman will put the Zeppelin down there.

ProfMerak is looking up to the sky where a monstrous silver cigar is approaching

<La_ST> (Okay cut to Dr_Miller first)

<Lady_Samantha> (Busy day at the Temple ;))

Dr_Miller and her team have decided to first scout a bit around to find a better place for their camp in the vicinity of the temple

<Lady_Samantha> (how far are we from the encampment and temple?>

<Dr_Miller> The B-52 landed about 400-500m away from it to the Sourh

<Nathan_Raiser> (who is with this team?)

Bill_Irvine jumps out of the plane, throws his cigar away, steps on it and pulls out a new one immediatly

Lady_Samantha makes sure its really extingushed

<La_ST> (Nate: In front of the temple there is Prof.Merak with 5 assisents etc. They set up camp there already and look a bit perplexed at the zeppelin

<La_ST> (Dr_Miller and her two assistents are accompanied by Sam and Bill)

<Lady_Samantha> (good we can get put together while the gawk at the blimp)

<La_ST> (Exactly)

<Bill_Irvine> Anyone still doubting I can handly my baby?

Bill_Irvine pads his B52

<Dr_Miller> No, Mr.Irvine, I'm duely impressed

Dr_Miller 's assistents agree

Lady_Samantha is imressed also, Bill

Bill_Irvine spits on the ground and looks around

Nathan_Raiser steps out of the jungle in front of the B52 wearing combat fatigues and boots, and a black t shirt with a kevlar vast over it... he has a knife at his side, adn seems to have a pistol on his thigh... he is wearing a green hat on his head and has a earpiece/mike hanging from it... he has a long full blue beard...

<La_ST> Bill: You see that you landed on a clearing just the size of your machine

Nathan_Raiser raises his black gloved hand in a way to say hello...

<Bill_Irvine> Yeah, that's a clean on point landing... Shit, I am that damn good!

<La_ST> Aroundthere is jungle, and you will have to vfight through the growth to get to the temple proper

Nathan_Raiser seems to have a machine gun of some sort over at his back...

<Nathan_Raiser> Hello gentlemen...

Dr_Miller points at the cockpit window

Nathan_Raiser holds his hand to his cap nodding politely

Lady_Samantha nods to Nate

Bill_Irvine looks at the newcomer

<Dr_Miller> Look, there is some guy there! I wonder if he belons to Prof.Merak's team...

<Bill_Irvine> Howdy! Who's there?

<Nathan_Raiser> ...that's what i'd like to ask

<La_ST> (Oh, we are outside *sheepish grin)

<Nathan_Raiser> ...not a lot of people have acees to a VTOL B52...

<Lady_Samantha> (Ok - I'm BatGirl ;))

<Nathan_Raiser> ...or a working one for that matter...

<Bill_Irvine> Well I have as you can see... My baby, my pride, my work...

<Bill_Irvine> And that's because I am the best damn gunsmith around and I wanted one.

Dr_Miller decides to let Bill deal with the guy. He's armed afterall, and she isn't so much a fighter

<Nathan_Raiser> ... you sound familiar...

Bill_Irvine takes a closer look at Nathaniel.

<Bill_Irvine> You too.. Somehow...

Nathan_Raiser raises his hat and seems to scratch his head

<Nathan_Raiser> ...Tex?

<Bill_Irvine> No... You don't... Lib? Is that you? Damn....

Nathan_Raiser moves his head to the side...

Nathan_Raiser lightens up

<Nathan_Raiser> Tex!

Nathan_Raiser runs towards him and hugs him!

Bill_Irvine gives back the hug

<Nathan_Raiser> I haven't seen you since...

<Nathan_Raiser> what was it?

<Nathan_Raiser> 71' 72?

<Bill_Irvine> Lib! Buddy... What's driving your mad liberal ass in here?

Nathan_Raiser looks really cheery...

<Bill_Irvine> '72 I think

<Nathan_Raiser> ... well...

<Nathan_Raiser> Heh... i lost time in those years...

Nathan_Raiser looks down...

<Nathan_Raiser> anyway... what are you doing here

Bill_Irvine points at the B52

<Nathan_Raiser> and HOW did you make the wings turn and have still control enough force for a vertical take off?

<Bill_Irvine> Dropping off some people and equipment.. I am not only the best damn gunsmith, but also the best pilot of a B52 you could ever see

<Nathan_Raiser> ...yeah right.. .as if it is hard to drive a air tank

Nathan_Raiser grins

<Bill_Irvine> Lib... You have to use the proper chemical structure and metal, some thinking and Science!

<Bill_Irvine> That's all

<Bill_Irvine> You never saw my flying my baby

<Nathan_Raiser> ... it's good to see someoen from Nam...

Lady_Samantha walks over.... I take it you two know each other?

<Nathan_Raiser> most people i see are either down and out... or beneath a cross...

Dr_Miller looks a bit astonished, but also relieved

<Bill_Irvine> Yeah, never thought to see your damn liberal ass again, Lib

Nathan_Raiser turns

Dr_Miller also joins the Americans

<Dr_Miller> I'm Dr.Lisa Miller, and these are my assistents Bob and Sarah

<Bill_Irvine> Hard times back then and many didn't make it... But we are too tough to get ourselves grounded, aren't we?

<Nathan_Raiser> Who are these suits you are ferrying around?

<Dr_Miller> And that's Lady SAmantha

<Nathan_Raiser> They are also here for the dig?

Nathan_Raiser nods

<Bill_Irvine> Folks.. This is Lib...

Bill_Irvine points at Nathan

<Dr_Miller> ALSO here?

Lady_Samantha nods, Medical doctor and linguist

Nathan_Raiser puts his hand out towards dR Miller

<Nathan_Raiser> it's Nathan...

<Nathan_Raiser> Yes?

<Dr_Miller> Damn. Then Merak has been faster *again*

<Nathan_Raiser> Well there is this group here... they were here at least 4-5 days ago...

Dr_Miller shakes hands with Nathan

<Nathan_Raiser> ... they got in with choppers and flied in soem heavy machinery...

Dr_Miller doesn't look amused at the fact

<Nathan_Raiser> ...Nathan Raiser...

<Nathan_Raiser> ... waht is it so interesting about that place anyway?

<Dr_Miller> Well, Dr.Lisa Miller

<Nathan_Raiser> it just seems to be an old temple...

<Dr_Miller> Well, we are in a Scientific dispute...

<Bill_Irvine> I told ya lady... We should have used extra speed and you dhouldn't have looked around for other pilots.. I am the best, but yu wanted the trip safe not fast

<Dr_Miller> He wants to discredit some of my theories based on findings he suspects in this temple

<Nathan_Raiser> Oh... Doctor... one of those fancy explorers are we... well at least you have the Wild Texas boy here to guard you from the nasty jungle...

Nathan_Raiser smiles

<Dr_Miller> Well, I'm just a bis annoyed that Merak had 5 days longer already

<Nathan_Raiser> Well i'm here on a salvage mission...

<Bill_Irvine> Yeah, because I am the best damn shooter around, too

Bill_Irvine spits out and grins

<Dr_Miller> I *will* prove that my theories are valid and finally get my revenge for his nasty artivles

<Dr_Miller> A salvage mission?

<Nathan_Raiser> ... i'm looking for some lost equipment... unfortunatley i couldn't find it while flying up there...

<Nathan_Raiser> so i'm running on the rumors about this local area...

<Nathan_Raiser> (i found no trace of them, did i?)

<Dr_Miller> you lot equipment in the jungle? That has to be hard to find then

<La_ST> (You were pointed towards this temple. But Merak and his troupe were there already)

<Dr_Miller> I wonder if we couldn't try to lure Merak away somehow

<Dr_Miller> He mustn't realize that I am involved, though, or he will never be lured away

<Nathan_Raiser> (IN the templeor aroudn the temple?)

<Nathan_Raiser> (i could have scouted all aroudn it quite quick and without them knowing)

<La_ST> (They set up camp outside and swarmed over the temple already. But they are careful and haven't gotten deep inside yet)

<Lady_Samantha> what do you make of that blimp?

<Dr_Miller> Yes, indeed!

<Nathan_Raiser> What blimp?

<Dr_Miller> We saw some zeppelin approaching while we were on the way

Lady_Samantha points to the huge blimp

Nathan_Raiser looks in the direction shown to him

<Asian_Woman> (which has landed)

<La_ST> (Sam it is down now, there is jungle around, you don't see it from the ground)

<Nathan_Raiser> Crikey...a air ship!

<Nathan_Raiser> (whoops)

<La_ST> (yeah)

<Bill_Irvine> They saw it. I was buisy parking my baby

<Lady_Samantha> perhaps we ought to see if the crew needs medical help?

<Nathan_Raiser> Why would they need help?

<Nathan_Raiser> if it set down it must be some folks out to help your competitor...

<Dr_Miller> We *really* have to try and lure them away!

<Bill_Irvine> And you could see how easy it is to park your ride here

<Nathan_Raiser> Air ships are a good way to move out of here...

<Nathan_Raiser> Well you could have torn a few trees less down...

<Lady_Samantha> well, how might we do that (lure them away?)

Dr_Miller wrings her hands again

<Dr_Miller> If I just know!

<Bill_Irvine> I am not to blame for the trees being not able to stand the blast of jets, am I? I didn't make them.. Then they would even hold their ground in the worlds stringest hurricane

<Dr_Miller> I'm an archeologist, not a strategist

<Nathan_Raiser> If your wing hadn't torn into it, you silly yahoo they wouldn't even flinch...

<Nathan_Raiser> and why is it important for you to go there?

<Lady_Samantha> umms - these guys are ex military, maybe they have an idea?

<Bill_Irvine> I never touched any trees, you liberal wannabe

Bill_Irvine laughs

<Nathan_Raiser> (what have i exactly heard... are thos guys there giving me a problem?)

<Dr_Miller> Well, I suspect some artifacts there that could support a theory that would blow Prof.Merak away in scientists' circles

<Nathan_Raiser> ...and he wants to remove the evidence?

<La_ST> (Well, Prof.Merak wouldn't let you into the temple as you aren't a scientist. You could destroy the artifacts etc)

<Nathan_Raiser> (ok what did i see that that guy was doing there?)

Bill_Irvine lets out some more puffs of smoke from his cigar

<La_ST> (They were scurrying about the temple, bringing equipment in etc)

<Nathan_Raiser> Well i was planning for a night time visit to them...

<Dr_Miller> I strongly suspect he will do that!

<Nathan_Raiser> i scanend most of the sorrounding area for my salavage...

<Dr_Miller> He wants to destroy my reputation once and for all, he told me on the last congress

<Nathan_Raiser> it is possible that the stuff i am looking for is there...

<Dr_Miller> In the temple? Now that would be very curious!

<Bill_Irvine> That's why I put my effort into gunmaking...

<Nathan_Raiser> if i do help you with them... will you let me search withotu any control for the salavage i need?

Dr_Miller frowns

<Nathan_Raiser> Lady... it is salvage...

<Dr_Miller> Well, it depends... Ah well, if it is salvage it won't be of historical value, I think. The stuff I m looking for is pretty ancient

<Nathan_Raiser> remaisn ofa vehicle or two...

<Nathan_Raiser> what i am looking for is made of metal

<Nathan_Raiser> and i pretty large

<Dr_Miller> I think we can come to an agreement there

<Nathan_Raiser> and i think it won't be some sort of a chariot you'll be lookin for

<Nathan_Raiser> so...

<Bill_Irvine> Aww.. Lib, do you think you still have it?

<Dr_Miller> Well, not really...

Dr_Miller heard of some alien base that was located there, probably with a transmitter station )

<Nathan_Raiser> Well... what do you thinki was doing ever since i got that invitation...

<Lady_Samantha> speaking of transmitters

<Bill_Irvine> Holding speeches abotu freedom of thoughts, Lib?

Bill_Irvine laughs

<Lady_Samantha> that reminds me

<Dr_Miller> (I didn't say that aloud)

<Nathan_Raiser> ... no... but you don't need to know what i was doing ... :)

Nathan_Raiser grins

<Bill_Irvine> I don't want to know what goes on in that crazy liberal head of yours.

<Nathan_Raiser> And besides... you are still ownign a huge oil company and exploting bot hthe workers and the masses through all that gas!

<Lady_Samantha> oh -- well looking Nat's outfit, i spot the ear peice/mike and have the same thought ;)

<Lady_Samantha> we ought to sync the radios so we can communicate

<Bill_Irvine> I still own that company and it's running great... My workers are quite happy.. You are just jealous you were to lazy to made it with your liberal ass

Nathan_Raiser makesa grimace...

<Nathan_Raiser> Hey... i have nothin to be jelous off!

<Nathan_Raiser> i fundeda a trust fund for returnign Nam vets...

<Nathan_Raiser> after i saw how people were treated i made a nation wide program for supportign them and finding them jobs...

<Nathan_Raiser> unlike you...

<Lady_Samantha> (me looks for the McDonalds other chars ... fry guys and hamburgler ;))

<Nathan_Raiser> you are still a capitalist bastard...

<Bill_Irvine> And Lib.. Now I also sell handmade guns.. The best around, guy.

<Bill_Irvine> Still the old nuthead...

<Nathan_Raiser> ... i make the finest custom cars you will ever see...

Bill_Irvine spits out and puts his cigar back into his mouth

<Nathan_Raiser> and i am happy this way...

<Nathan_Raiser> you should see how many oldtimers...

Nathan_Raiser grabs his cigard and steps on it...

<Nathan_Raiser> ANd put that out!

<Nathan_Raiser> you remind me of that bastard drill sargeant back in Nam...

<Bill_Irvine> Hey, my cigar...

Bill_Irvine pulls out a new cigar and lights it

<Nathan_Raiser> he used to puff that darn smoke into our faces just so he could see when we'd cough...

<Bill_Irvine> Lib, you need a shower to cool off that head of yours.

Dr_Miller half listens to the Americans and shakes her head

<Lady_Samantha> hadn't we best find a place for our camp and setup?

<Bill_Irvine> Still the old hothead, eh? Good for you I have no bucket around to wash your crazy little head

<Dr_Miller> I think this is a wise idea

<Dr_Miller> We should try to get somewhat nearer the temple, though

<Dr_Miller> Even though Merak is there as well

<Dr_Miller> And maybe we should check that zeppelin first to see if they belong to Merak or if they are even another fraction

<Lady_Samantha> good point

<Lady_Samantha> you wanna come with me?

Nathan_Raiser presses his comlink...

<Dr_Miller> I don't want to scout the jungle on my own like this

<Nathan_Raiser> ...warp... whe.. did the...rship.. land?

<Dr_Miller> I have to make sure my equipment is safe

Nathan_Raiser covers the mike

<Nathan_Raiser> Well thsi is as good place as any...

<Nathan_Raiser> if you don't have any heavy equipment on that B52 you could even set up shop i nthe back and open it...

Nathan_Raiser turns to him...

<Nathan_Raiser> I believe that he

Nathan_Raiser points his thumb to hhim

<Skywarp_> Nathan? They landed just next to the camp

<Nathan_Raiser> removed the bombr bay and added enough transport space...

<Skywarp_> That old geezer there and his crew buzz around like wild

Nathan_Raiser moves hsi hand from the mike...

<Nathan_Raiser> Are the...moving towards the airship?

<Skywarp_> So far they are standing there, looking at it. Two of the assistants have pointed rifles at it

<Nathan_Raiser> ... okay... remain on stabdby... are the hired hands behaving?

Nathan_Raiser moves his hand towards the bushes for the guide he hired to come out...

Nathan_Raiser points the guide towards the camp...

<Nathan_Raiser> Skywarp, i'm sending the guide back to the camp... he'll wait there with the others...

<Nathan_Raiser> Nathan out...

<Nathan_Raiser> Okay...

<Nathan_Raiser> the people have moved aroudn the ship

<Nathan_Raiser> but they don't seem to be unloading

<Nathan_Raiser> accordign to what i hear they are as surpriesd by it as you were...

<Bill_Irvine> Seems like some uninvited visitors around here... I'll be damned if the other craft belongs to them

<Dr_Miller> So it is a third party?

<Dr_Miller> DAmn. They will go after my research as well, it seems!

<Nathan_Raiser> I am not sure...

<Nathan_Raiser> there seems to be nothing happening there currently...

<Nathan_Raiser> we have two options...

<Lady_Samantha> say -- while they are occupied with the blimp, perhaps nat, you and I can sneak into the tenple to look around?

<Bill_Irvine> Gunsmithing, piloting, drilling oil... I know why I went after those.. Hard and honest work and no big rivalaries

<Nathan_Raiser> one is to start makign ruckus or to see what is it with the airship...

<Dr_Miller> I can't risk this, I'm afraid

<Nathan_Raiser> ... oh shut up you rotten texan git...

Dr_Miller doesn't look like a fearless explorer. She is more a fragile scientist

<Dr_Miller> I think you might better ask one of the men

<Bill_Irvine> It seems that communist mind of yours still hasn't caught any sense, Lib. Still don't know any honest work, eh?

<Bill_Irvine> (Good Lib doesn't know Bill is into smuggling, too *g*)

<Nathan_Raiser> (well smuggling is better then dealign in oil!

;))

<Lady_Samantha> we we should decide something, no?

<Nathan_Raiser> ...well

<Dr_Miller> Well, I would suggest, we go there with the two armed guys. They know how to fight, in case it is needed

<Dr_Miller> Bob and Sarah can watch the equipment here

Nathan_Raiser takes out a map... what is odd about it is that it is in an unusally large scale... it seems to have series of numbers and "property of U.s. marine corps stenciled on the sight"

<Lady_Samantha> (me is also armed and armored)

<Nathan_Raiser> Well this is the Area...

Nathan_Raiser points...

<Bill_Irvine> Ok Lady, if you like I will acompany you. It would be a shame if you would get hurt

<Nathan_Raiser> here is the ship...

<Nathan_Raiser> and here is the camp they built

Dr_Miller looks at the map, too

<Bill_Irvine> Nice map you got

<Nathan_Raiser> the thing is that the yahoo's landing here must have made half the forest know you are here...

<Nathan_Raiser> Isn't it? :)

Nathan_Raiser grins

<Bill_Irvine> They didn't seem to bother, so who cares... My baby has some more surprises

<Bill_Irvine> Wait a sec...

<Dr_Miller> Well, they clouldn't shoot at you or stuff...

<Dr_Miller> Thinks like that might lure some other people here we don't want to meet at all

<Nathan_Raiser> Sure...

<Nathan_Raiser> Well we coudl scare the hell out of them

<Nathan_Raiser> but you see

<Nathan_Raiser> this... is the size of the airship... in scale with the map

Bill_Irvine goes back to the plane, boards it and pushes a button, to set off a chemical reaction. The surface changes to the general color pattern of the surrounding, making it much harder to spot the plane.

Nathan_Raiser shows them aproximatley how large the ship is and waits to see the expression on the faces

<Dr_Miller> *That* big?!

<Nathan_Raiser> ... hah! You don't even have that on remote... i'll build you one...

<Dr_Miller> I hope they don't have an army up there!

<Nathan_Raiser> Yep... i have an accurate measuring...

<Nathan_Raiser> Idon't know

Bill_Irvine gets out of the plane

<Nathan_Raiser> but i think that tacticaly tryign to scare them wouldn't work after this...

<Nathan_Raiser> ... hah! You don't even have that on remote... i'll build you one...

<Bill_Irvine> I don't want any. My baby is all hand rigged and I control it from the inside, Lib.. I am not as lazy as you are...

<Dr_Miller> Your plane is amazing!

<Bill_Irvine> Lady, some honest hard work, thinking, tinkering, chemicals and Science! can do the job

Nathan_Raiser wishes to laugh out loud at doc Miller's amazment... what would she say abotu Skywarp...

<Nathan_Raiser> how did you do that pattern

Nathan_Raiser looks very interested and a bit baffled by it

<Bill_Irvine> Lib, Lib, Lib... Just look around, you don't need eagle's eyes to see the pattern of the surrounding, do you?

<Bill_Irvine> As I told you.. I am into hard, honest work and Science!

<Bill_Irvine> (Good that Science! and sience sound alike *g*)

<Bill_Irvine> It's just that I am that damn good...

<Lady_Samantha> ok guys -- we really need some sort of plan

<Nathan_Raiser> ...

<Nathan_Raiser> so..

<Nathan_Raiser> how?

<Bill_Irvine> Rush into the temple, get what we can get and walk out?

<Nathan_Raiser> or did you get someone to make it for your lazy ass?

<Nathan_Raiser> This is not a Western, Tex...

<Bill_Irvine> Lib, unlike you I do my work myself.

<Bill_Irvine> Well it usually works best

Dr_Miller wrings her hands again

<Nathan_Raiser> So...

<Dr_Miller> Well, I'm open for suggestions... As I said, I'm not strategist...

<Dr_Miller> That's why I decided to hire capable help

<Nathan_Raiser> Well there semething we can do..

<Nathan_Raiser> We can go ther claiming to want to help the injured of the airship that dropped so fast...

<Nathan_Raiser> like that they cannot turn as away...

Lady_Samantha waves -- I'm the doctor

<Nathan_Raiser> and we get to see what that airship is and i is it a threat

<Nathan_Raiser> well we don't know naythign about it

<Nathan_Raiser> but we can bluff

Dr_Miller listens intently

<Nathan_Raiser> the only thing that we shoudl worry is if there are hostiles inside who will mark our bluff if we do that

<Dr_Miller> Well, I just know we have to try and make them go away, or we can't go about our research in peace

<Nathan_Raiser> or if theyare just not moving hter...

<Nathan_Raiser> the other option is simple...

<Nathan_Raiser> i will drop enough smoke bombs on them they will have to get away...we can use masks to avoi the smoke and the stink and cleanit up with the jets of Bill's plane

<Nathan_Raiser> that should give us enought time to set up shop there

<Nathan_Raiser> ...and yes.. i would liek you to help out...

<Dr_Miller> Help out?

<Nathan_Raiser> i can always go and raid their place during the night to find what i need if you will jsut stay here standing

<Bill_Irvine> Me? Oh... Liberal lazy ass needs help? From me?

<Lady_Samantha> Nat I'd like to set our radios to your frequency so we can communicate, can you tell the numbers?

Bill_Irvine extinguishes his cigar, pulls out a stick that looks like dynamite and is about to put it into his mouth as he looks at it, puts it back into his jacket and pulls out a real cigar

<Bill_Irvine> Oooops

<Bill_Irvine> Wrong pocket

Nathan_Raiser grins...

<Nathan_Raiser> i would prefer no to...

<Nathan_Raiser> if yo uare providing this team with comms jsut give me a frequency to tune into...

<Lady_Samantha> ok - /me hands you one of ours

Dr_Miller and her assistents take them, too

<Lady_Samantha> nods

<Bill_Irvine> Are we ready to kick some serious ass?

Lady_Samantha smiles

<Dr_Miller> I would prefer it not to get too violent

Lady_Samantha has knockout darts as well as her staff

<Bill_Irvine> As you wish, Lady... Still let's get things straight and then go

Nathan_Raiser sets soemthign on his earpiece...

<Nathan_Raiser> okay...

<Nathan_Raiser> so what shall we do...

Bill_Irvine pulls out his gun and checks it, before putting it back.

<Dr_Miller> Well, we should try to check the situation as long as it is still day

<Dr_Miller> I fear I won't like to scout through the jungle in the dark

Lady_Samantha suggests you and I can go to the airship (I'm offering

<Lady_Samantha> medical services to the crew of the airship) and explore whats really the story while there?)

<Nathan_Raiser> so... smoke grneades or a bluff?

<Dr_Miller> If you want to bluff I should better stay here

<Lady_Samantha> meanwhile, Dr Miller and staff can setup the campsite

<Dr_Miller> Merak knows me and would call the bluff right away

<Dr_Miller> Couldn't we stay in the plane for now? I would prefer to set up camp closer to the temple

<Bill_Irvine> So let's put his place in smoke, drive 'em off and let's check everything after that?

<Nathan_Raiser> Okay...

<Lady_Samantha> that works too

<Nathan_Raiser> you guys shoudl wait here...

<Nathan_Raiser> i'll bring the greneades...

<Nathan_Raiser> I'll be back later...

Nathan_Raiser waves and heads back into the forest...

<Bill_Irvine> C ya, if you don't blast yer ass...

Lady_Samantha distributtes oxygen pills to the party

Bill_Irvine looks at the pill

<Bill_Irvine> What's that? Sweets from a sweet?

Nathan_Raiser hurries to the camp and after informing his crew of what will happen tells them to lay low... he then heads and opens one of the black crates that are near a huge object covered in camo netting...

<Lady_Samantha> its an oxygen pill, provides for harsh climates (gives you oxygen, so the environment isn't an issue)

<La_ST> (Sam to activate them you will have to do an Arete roll for every pill - it is a Life 3 effect for others, remember)

<Lady_Samantha> ok -- what does it last, the scene?

<La_ST> (Yup, the scene)

<Lady_Samantha> k

<Lady_Samantha> when we're ready (or would you like to get it done, while Asmo sets up)?

Nathan_Raiser opens the 3rd one and drags out a number of black cyllindrs and loads them in a large duffel bag...

<Bill_Irvine> So let's get onto my baby... We need to get ready.. I have to calibrate the jets into the right direction

Nathan_Raiser puts on a loose camo jacket over his vest and checks the colt .45 in his shoudler holster

Bill_Irvine boards the plane and moves the jets into the direction of the camp in preperation

<La_ST> (Sam: I'd like it done when the people take the pills. *If* they do ^_^)

<Lady_Samantha> ok

Nathan_Raiser opens the comm to the others and opens a small mask with a faceplate and puts it into the duffel bag...

Dr_Miller looks at the team and is very glad she hired such a capable team

<Bill_Irvine> (through the com) Just like old times, eh Lib?

<Nathan_Raiser> Yeah... listen

<La_ST> (Sam: For you it is a Life 2 effect, btw)

<Nathan_Raiser> do you have any means of dropping it over them... maybe a mortar?

<Lady_Samantha> (nod)

<Bill_Irvine> Lib, I only have bomb bays...

<Bill_Irvine> I am flying a bomber, not equipping a sqaud

<Lady_Samantha> hmmm - what needs to be dropped?

<Nathan_Raiser> Well the thing is that a bomber over them may be to... shal lwe say conspicous?

<Snaipperi> (ooc: going to sleep now, 0.30am here.. see ya)

<Lady_Samantha> thinking maybe I could with my personal copter?

<Bill_Irvine> Do ya think they could suspect something if a bomber does some flybys?

<Lady_Samantha> oh well - it was a thought

<Nathan_Raiser> Well if it has landed a fe hours EARLIER...

<Nathan_Raiser> maybe jut roll thm in during the night?

<Lady_Samantha> (wonbdered if you saw my thought)

<Bill_Irvine> Lady, do you think you can handle a flyby?

<Lady_Samantha> how nig are the things that need to be dropped?

<Lady_Samantha> err how big

<Nathan_Raiser> 20*10 inches

<Lady_Samantha> how many are there?

<Nathan_Raiser> well 5 should do...

<Lady_Samantha> and they just need to droped there?

<Nathan_Raiser> they need to be dropped at dfferent points to get the full coverage...

<Lady_Samantha> ok - i see

<Lady_Samantha> I think so

Lady_Samantha goes to the ship and sets up the copter

<Nathan_Raiser> So you havea method... good

<Bill_Irvine> Lib, how long till I should blow away the steam?

Nathan_Raiser opens another of the big black boxes and puts his rifle into it... he grabs a H&K SMG and quickyl loads it and puts an extra clip onto hsis vest...

Lady_Samantha finishes up the assembly

Nathan_Raiser hangs on his back...

Lady_Samantha loads up the cylinders

Nathan_Raiser puts the duffel bag on his back and nodding to his hired hands quickly runs through the forest thinking of Vietnam while doing it...

Lady_Samantha lifts off ... (very quietly)

<La_ST> (cut to zeppelin)

Lady_Samantha activates cloaking device

<La_ST> (Sam, could you please roll Arete for the cloaking?)

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 5, 4, 8

<Lady_Samantha> is that 2 or 1?

Nathan_Raiser gets to the B52 and hives the mthe contents of the duffelbag taking only the faceplate out

<La_ST> (Atthat area Cloaking is vulgar w/o witnesses here, I'd say, thus 1 sux)

<La_ST> (not area, era)

<Lady_Samantha> so that wont last very long then?

<La_ST> (You can roll two more, I'd say) Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 3, 10, 8

<La_ST> (+2)

<Lady_Samantha> roll again, or is 3 enough?

<La_ST> (That's your choice. Every additional roll can be a fail or botch, too)

<Lady_Samantha> what do I need to last the scene?

<La_ST> (You may roll up to thrice, if you so desire)

Nathan_Raiser puts on his faceplate... it tigthtly cvovers his in some sort of a black mask, his mouth and nose are covered with a purple grille of some sort and his eyes are covered with a shaded translucent material

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 10, 8, 7

<La_ST> (It will last the scene, but the zeppelin has a radar, too, of course)

<La_ST> (Ok. That is 6 sux)

<La_ST> (So now our Asian woman may roll thrice, too. The radar has been on all the time, but only now it is necessary to determine whose kungfu is better ^_^)

Asian_Woman rolled 3d10 dice and got: 8, 8, 9

Asian_Woman rolled 3d10 dice and got: 5, 7, 4

Asian_Woman rolled 3d10 dice and got: 1, 7, 4

<Asian_Woman> (5 suxx)

<La_ST> (Okay, this means the heli goes through undetected)

<La_ST> (But of course you will see as soon as the smoke bombs blow up)

<La_ST> (Moment, sensory equipment is coincidental, the Effect are 1-Sphere ratings

<Lady_Samantha> thats true

<La_ST> Thus you had in fact 7 sux)

<La_ST> (Okay, the radar warning chimes in the zeppelin

<La_ST> On the radar screen you see a somewhat blurred picture that shows a very small helicopter that approaches the temple.

Asian_Woman frowns

<Lady_Samantha> so she got 1 more then me -- ok

<La_ST> Below the zeppelin, a group of people has collected and looked for cover, and it seems at least two rifles are trained at the zep

Asian_Woman is probably looking at them.

<Asian_Woman> hmmzz

<Asian_Woman> Not a friendly bunch I see.

<La_ST> You notice you could easily read the output of the instruments as if this was natural to you

Asian_Woman wonders who these jumpy guys are. --- Sat Feb 7 2004

Lady_Samantha drops cylinder 1 (and proceeds to 2nd drop point)

<La_ST> (are the cylinders set up with a timer or remote=?)

<Lady_Samantha> timer

<Nathan_Raiser> (timer)

<La_ST> (thx)

Lady_Samantha drops cylinder 2 (proceed to 3rd drop)

<Nathan_Raiser> (and they were marked in the order they are supposed to be thrown

Asian_Woman wonders why that helicopter is flying around the Zeppelin.

<Nathan_Raiser> (so that some of them have earlier firin then the rest)

<La_ST> (good)

Lady_Samantha drops cylinder 3 (proceeds to 4th)

Asian_Woman notices a slight stop in the hellicopters circling pattern.

Lady_Samantha drops cylinder 4 (proceeds to last)

Lady_Samantha drops cylinder 5 (returns

Asian_Woman decides not to take a chance and takes off.

<La_ST> (Sam: The heli seems to be flying away)

<La_ST> (zep)

<Lady_Samantha> (comm to Nat... should i follow it, or return?)

Asian_Woman heads to cloaked mode (this is one of the ships own gadgets so it's up to you what Arete it has)

<La_ST> (Asian: You can track the heli flying about 500km to the South )

<Nathan_Raiser> Esxcellent...

<Asian_Woman> (meters I assume?)

<Nathan_Raiser> (you know it has cloaking! WOW!)

<La_ST> (500m)

Lady_Samantha tracks the blimp with the heli's onboard tricorder

<Asian_Woman> (nice label saying cloak generator efficiency)

<La_ST> (Well, I think for that size it better be sufficient Arete, or the Big Bad Conspiracy (tm) would have taken it our for quite awhile already

<La_ST> (So make that Arete 8)

<Bill_Irvine> (Com) Lib, how long do you need, until I shall blow away the steam?

Asian_Woman rolled 8d10 dice and got: 5, 5, 7, 8, 10, 7, 3, 5

<La_ST> (Right on the way to Ascension, LOL)

<Asian_Woman> (4 suxx)

<La_ST> (yup)

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 7, 10, 2

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 8, 2, 1

ProfMerak and his team are coughing their lungs out and run towards *somewhere* where they suspect fresh air

<La_ST> (Rev Jones) You hear some muffled sounds like weak explosions outside, and then some ruckus

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 6, 10, 4

<La_ST> (Remember, retry is +1 diff)

<Lady_Samantha> whats the target?

<Lady_Samantha> its a sensory effect

<La_ST> (Hm. Well, what exactly did you want to do anyway?)

<Bill_Irvine> (com) Lib, have your liberal madass thoughts blocked out your hearing?

<Lady_Samantha> the blimp cloaked ... I wanted to be able to track it

<La_ST> (Ok. Target is 5 as it is a retry)

<La_ST> (4 suxx were his result)

<Lady_Samantha> (so thats 4 so far)

<La_ST> (4? Nope, 1)

<La_ST> (After a fail, the first sux are void))

<La_ST> (You have to start anew)

<Lady_Samantha> oh I see -- and I've use my three rolls so i failed?

<La_ST> (No, you have new 3 rolls, but at +1 diff)

<Lady_Samantha> ok so its 2 then

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 9, 5, 2

Lady_Samantha rolled 3d10 dice and got: 3, 10, 4

<Lady_Samantha> 5?

<La_ST> (Ok. You can track the Zep)

<Lady_Samantha> comm to Nat: do I follow it or return home?

<La_ST> (Where's the Zep going?)

Asian_Woman just waits in the air higher up.

<La_ST> (On the ground the smoke wavers through the encampment)

<Lady_Samantha> comm to Nat: do I follow it or return home?

<Nathan_Raiser> We have no reason to go out for it...

<Nathan_Raiser> we will have little time for this as is...

<La_ST> (Asian W.) You see the camp is covered in smoke

<Lady_Samantha> ok: return home then

Asian_Woman thinks: "What the hell is going on here."

<Nathan_Raiser> Okay... let's move in there and try and get s much info as we can...

<Nathan_Raiser> the smoke should give us at least a good hour to get around there...

<Nathan_Raiser> we can find our bearings and see what is there...

<Nathan_Raiser> so shall we?

<Dr_Miller> THis sounds like a good idea

<Dr_Miller> I think I will accompany you after all to check what Merak found out already

<Dr_Miller> Bob and Sarah will guard the equipment here

<Lady_Samantha> put the 'copter in the b52 and rejoin DrM and Nat

<La_ST> (Marv has severe connection problems - I got him on phone. He is still trying to reconnect)

Asian_Woman thinks: "Just smoke. What are they after."

<Nathan_Raiser> (shoudl we wait for him?)

<La_ST> (Well, he said, he doesn't know how long it'll take. He said to assume he goes with you, 2-3 guns at the ready)

<La_ST> (The Telekom might or might n ot fix the problem in short time)

<La_ST> (He says Greetings)

<La_ST> (We *could* make a break here even if I don't like it. I would like to have Marv with the group after all)

Nathan_Raiser tells Bill to take point and he moves behind him using the pad to overly the 3d map he ans Skywarp created so he can move through the forest without problems...

<Nathan_Raiser> (well you are the boss...

<La_ST> (Marv is more than annoyed, he tells me - it is the second break down of T-offline within 2 days in his area)

<Nathan_Raiser> if we do a brake may i vote for a 2nd session this weekend..

<Lady_Samantha> thats doable

<La_ST> (Not possible. I have my PnP group here

<Nathan_Raiser> (oh... and Sunday?)

<Nathan_Raiser> (... bloody sunday!)

<La_ST> (Sunday I need to work, as I didn't today and can't tomorrow either)

<La_ST> (And next Friday I don't have time in the evening either, as I'm on a reiki share)

<Asian_Woman> (okay, do a break here then)

<La_ST> (I think it is better. I don't want to NPC Bill)

<Lady_Samantha> so far its going welll, I think

<La_ST> (I think we will manage to get the group together somehow after all

<Asian_Woman> (It's going real slow..)

<La_ST> *sighs* I so wanted to get into the temple today and close with a nice find...

<La_ST> *curses T-Offline*
