Bogglesteinsky · October 2003

well, sparks wondered where we all were, so i stuck my head into the corridoor you have just entered and told you

*hears hissing*

"hmm. better not do that again..."

Rokiyo · October 2003

Yipes! I shoot off for a day and a half for one hell of a grueling Aikido/Aido seminar thingey (had some 6th Dan over from England coming over to Portugal to share his methods)... I'm very sore <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/sad.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad.gif'>

Seeing as the fade has already been and gone I'm gonna skip the surprise and pretend I had been fighting all along

"Somebody drag Zooby out of there! COVERING FIRE!!!"

[Starts burst firing into each of the vents, not entirely sure what caused the first one to close but hoping to reproduce the same effect while keeping the lerk at bay]

*Points to the shut vent inbetween bursts with his left hand*

"Try to get all those vents shut!"

BlackMage · October 2003

mercura's in the console, right. so she can talk over the headsets now, right?
remember that i still don't know who she is, and i'm still looking for the 'she' i heard talking


"erm ... turrets anyone?"
*lmg still on shoulder, checks vents again*
"hurry up, gonna close door"
*hand over enter key*

P-Khan · October 2003

*goes underneath the vent in which the lerk is located*
"Someone, jump on me and go inside this vent. Kill the mother-****!"
*crouches*

Rokiyo · October 2003

*Yells over the gunfire*

"GET ZOOBY OUT OF DANGER FIRST!"

*Fires off a 3 or 4 round burst*

"THEN WE GET THE LERK!"

*Keeps bursting till the clip empties*

deaincaelo · October 2003

"frell, its in the second vent"
*waypoints the lerk*
"kill it, cmon ppl"
*drops zoobie a medpack*
*upgrades tf to siege and armory, just in case*

xect · October 2003

[notices the lerk when it fires the spores out of the second vent]
[Nothing happens]

PFCNublar · October 2003

"Meh...they ain't giving me enough tuition for this."
*shoulders CZU and bursts off a few rounds*
*turns my head a bit, and sees zooby is down*
*hears Revenge screaming about zooby*
*runs out and grabs zooby by the left shoulder*
*picks the medpak up in my other hand*
*runs back to cover*
*props him up against the cover and gives zooby the medpak*
"You just stay here, shoot anything that comes up behind me. I'm going to try and get a medic for ya."
*inches out of cover a bit*
"Meeedic! Corpsman!"
*moves out of cover a bit, still screaming for a medic*


Meh, things speed up pretty fast, eh?

Jaeger · October 2003

*spots the lerk backing from the vent opening, shoulders his LMG and takes aim with his pistol, a spare magazine clutched in his left palm*
"How far will these rounds penetrate, I wonder."
[aims three shots directly below the vent opening, fires two more into the side, emptying the rest at random into the wall, hopefully tearing through the thin plating and into the vent beyond]
"Someone with a welder get these vents closed, whatever it takes just do it and do it now."

343_guilty_spark · October 2003

*He pulls the darts out and gives them to Ed.*
"Here, take them, make them count dude."
*Heads off to zooby and starst treating him.*

Rokiyo · October 2003

*Clip runs out, I pull the trigger a few more times before realising, I don't bother to reload as I get down low and start running for the vents while the others are shooting. I look around for access panels to weld on the ground level before giving up and looking over to P-Khan*

"Ok maybe you should do the shooting, you seem to know how to handle your guns!*

*I'm still yelling over the gunfire. I Lean back against the wall under the second vent, and motion for P-Khan to get up*

"Cmon! Use my hands as a step and get onto my shoulders!"

*Braces himself*

BlackMage · October 2003

ok, im assuming that xect is now inside
"just in case"
*typing*
*beep*
*door slides down partway, leaving enough room to duck under*
"rear secured"

P-Khan · October 2003

*hears Revenge*
"OK, just brace yourself"
*puts knife between teeth, and takes out LMG*
"GO"
[runs towards Revenge and jumps on his hand, then on his shoulder, and then inside the vent. starts shooting inside, hoping to get the lerk]

Richter_Grim · October 2003

Hello all. I hope there is room for one more. I have read all of this tread and the previous one aswell. I also
read the rules. I think it would be easiest to say that I renforced with Black Mage, and just have been quite
the whole time.

 *Looks around the room, seeing Terran covering Zooby, runs over to help.*
*Crouching next to Terran* "Hi, names Richter Grim. Or you can call me Grim for short."
[Will shoot the first thing that treatens my position with short burst fire from my Lmg]

zooby · October 2003

PM your character prof to xect and you should be good to go...

"Hey, what are you doing? Get those spikes out of my leg and jack me into the medpack. Cut out all the diddle-daddle."

Night_Shade · October 2003

Bloody hell. I go to sleep for one night and there's TWO more pages.
"Got it!"
*heads over to Zooby*
"This will hurt. We don't have time for anaesthetic."
*grabs a set of pliers out of his pack and starts ripping out spikes, once they're all out grabs a nano-injector from his pack and fills it from the medpack*
"Here we go."
*injects a moderate quantity of nanoes into each of the spike wounds, [leaving some left in the medpack, which I use to top up my pack's supply]*
[the wounds are starting to heal]
"Damn it all, someone shoot that thing PLEASE! *taps headset* And Dea, get the hell out of the chair so xect can get in and I can patch your arm up!"
Edit: Welcome to the party, Richter.

Richter_Grim · October 2003

*Covers Night Shade as he works*
"Where is the lerk?"
[Waits untill some one tells him where it is, then attemps to kill or scare it away; Till then will cover Night and
Zooby]

BlackMage · October 2003

dont sleep <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>
and methinks that those actions looks like carrots, insteada stars
"ok, everyone's here everything behind this door is therfore hostile. give the order and it's one less way to die"
*looks at all vents or doors, searching for motion*
"while i'm at it, anything else to lock?"

deaincaelo · October 2003

"dont worry about me, its a fleash -ow!"
*drops a last medpack or two, jumps out of CC.*
*puts my last clip of ammo in my pistol*
[shoots the lerk]

Khaim · October 2003

*gestures around at the other locked and closed doors in the room from behind a pillar*
"I already locked up the rest of this stuff, unfortunately it didn't close quite fast enough to stop that fade from eariler."
*Quickly pulls his hand back as spikes go soaring through the air nearby*
[Curses under his breath about lerks then pops out and shoots a bit at the vents]
Hey Richter

Venmoch · October 2003

"Everyone take aim at the second vent now, when the thing moves out to spore again open fire!"
[Waits for lerk to creep forward and shoots]

Lord_Darkness · October 2003

Boggle, I added a transmitter to the PDA and set it to our main comm channel, she's been on the radio since before the Fade.
"Man, it sure is nice in here."
"Don't get to comfortable in there."
"@$$hole, making me go back into that PDA."
"I'm surprised Erin programed those into your vocab subroutine. Boggle, I think that you should start treating Mercura as more than an MS Narator rip-off."
"WHAT DID YOU CALL ME!!!"
*doesn't hear Mercura as I cover the vent Ven pointed out*
"If I make it outta this alive, I'm expecting a huge pension from the TSA when I retire."

Venmoch · October 2003

*Said quietly as the whole world goes to hell*
"Heh I half expect her to start saying 'It looks like your writing a letter!'"

Bogglesteinsky · October 2003

yeah, bu before then i could mute her. now i cant

*pulls out pistol and knife, sticks knife under shoulder pad, crouches and aims at the second vent*

Rokiyo · October 2003

Try not to forget that P-Khan just pulled himself up into the vent on my shoulders, so any shots you guys take are going straight into his rear end...

It also pays to pay attention! <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>

"Writing a letter...huh?" OpenOffice user <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif'>
"Hey Dea, you want that arm patched up, get over here! There's no way I'm gonna fix it in that damn lerk's line of fire!"

xect · October 2003

[Nothing happens]
[succeeds in leaving some left in the medpack]Ok, we have two greens it seems
[The lerk looks out of the vent to fire, but is met by a rain of bullets before it has time to act
[Misses the lerk by mere inches, causing it to flee]
[Hits nothing at all]
[Fires just as the lerk leaves. As far as you get to see before it's gone again, you hit nothing.]
[Fires when the lerk runs, but too late to hit it]
[P-Khan gets into the vent]

Ok, you don't have to put brackets around things that are sure not to fail. Also, it would be better if you take only one important action (one with brackets) between my posts. Makes it easier to keep a realistic time-line where people don't act with inhuman speed compared to others.
