    <span style='color:Teal'>*He lets out a long sigh before walking over and closing the church door then moving beside Demiguise*
    "You can get up now, and you said your name was Demiguise, right? ...Now where have I heard that before..."
    *He grabs Demiguise and pulls him to his feet*
    "Are you -The- Demiguise? The hacker Demiguise? ...Somehow I expected you to be taller."</span>

    <span style='color:DarkKhaki'>"Just a little tip, mate. Next time you point a gun at someone it better be ready to fire. Otherwise, when someone decides to call your bluff you could well be dead."
    *Colin heads off towards a wall, unslings his weapon and sits against the wall He then starts field stripping his weapon and cleaning it*</span>

    <i>Suddenly, the whole church shakes from a direct bomb impact, and a golden chandelier crashes to the floor. Seconds later, a huge crash is heard outside. It seems the church tower has just gone down.</i>

    <span style='color:Teal'>*Raziel stumbles around as the chandelier crashes to the floor and the entire place shakes, eventually regaining his balance by hanging onto one of the pews. Once the tower crashes down he looks up at the ceiling.*

    *Adrian stumbles into the church, tripping from the shock of the tower collapsing and the impact that follows*
    *After picking himself up, he starts to take a seat but then freezes when he spies all of these men carrying rifles and scary looks*
    "Oh <i>man</i>. Of all the designated bomb shelters I could of gone to...I went to this one."
    *He then edges into a pew and slowly wraps his coat around himself tightly to conceal his gear, afraid it might prompt the armed men to do something rash*
    *Reaches into his back pocket and draws his radio*
    *Adrian then begins to speak meekly after a small wave in the air to catch general attention*
    "I'm sorry to bother you...guys, but I was wondering if any of you know of a radio station that might have some useful news on right now. Like if the GAC is going to enter this town with troops later in the day or something. Most of the ones in the Emergancy Survival Pamphlet are...just static."

    <i>The bombing seems to be thinning out now. Going to be over in a few minutes.

    Terran - After searching for a while, you catch onto a british news service. News for the day, as for any other day for some time now, is mainly about the war. It seems, from the bits and pieces you get to hear through the static, that the G.A.C. reports to have killed Juhziz during the bombing raids, and that the bombing raids are ceasing. Further, the prime minister supposedly promises to initiate rebuilding of warszava. The likelyhood of that happening is, however, not really large. Any other rebuilding projects so far have stalled a few days into the process in order for the troops and funding to continue to the next conquest.</i>

    'Bad news is good news huh Sarlex ? Your dam right.' He said to himself, as the G.A.C moved in, U.E.N would need mercs to fight for them which meant more money, for once that whole day he smiled and waited for those last bombs to drop.

    "Yes, you can have your way with it. Just get it back to me before I leave or before we get picked up by the Red Cross of something."
    *He then reaches down and unloads the live magazine from his Pistol, **** the slide to eject the live round, puts the round back into the magazine, loads in an empty magazine into the pistol, then sets the saftey and puts the slide back foward*
    *Adrian then faces Sarlex*
    "Well, at the rate you're going, you could wander out of the church and look for a bar. There should be one around here, if I remember this neighborhood correctly. Loot and plunder the beer, eh?

    <span style='color:Teal'>*Raziel eye's Adrian suspiciously before going over and sitting down in the pew behind Demiguise and Adrian, proping his feet up against the bible rack*
    "Well, sound's like your average law abiding man to me, steal from the church and loot the beer from the bar, can't say I've seen too many who'd do much less."
    *He rolls his head around, taking a long look at his surroundings*
    "We're going to be here a while, and as long as our sticky fingered friend here decides not to shoot any of us, anyone feel like introducing themselves more than we have thus far? All we've got is a handfull of names, not even that in some cases."

    <i>About the bars, some of you know something about bars in the local area:

    Sparks - You know about, and frequent, a small, dirty bar just a quick walk from the church by the name of "Joey's".

    ZeroByte - Well, around here there's the underground bar "Joey's". Common place for mercenaries to hang out, and there's probably quite a few things going on that no one there would want the officials to know about. Then there's "the café" about 5 minutes' walk from here. It's more of an official bar. Good food, good drinks, good prices. That's where you'd expect to find the businessmen of the town. If you go a bit further, you reach the inner city. Of cause, that place is riddled with bars. There's just about any type of bar in there, and you know about most of them.

    Terran - You've been to "the café" once. Good beer, very good beer.

    Rest of you don't know much about the issue</i>

    <span style='color:chocolate'>On hearing the broadcast, Wyzak looks up and issues a despairing grunt.

    "Hah, you think maybe a broadcast from a G.A.C country will tell you the truth? I tell you, <b>if</b> it is even telling the truth about a G.A.C victory, the G.A.C will just roll their army in and declare Poland theirs. And we lose our sovreignty yet again. And you <i>mercs</i> aren't any better. All you do is prolong this war. Why can't you just leave us alone?"

    "You there, on the corner", motions Wyzak to Sarlax, "if it will get you out of my country faster, I know a place where you can get in touch with more of your kind. I'd spit, but we're in a church"</span>

    Do we still have planes in these days? and how much would a plane/shuttle ticket cost ?

    <span style='color:violet'>'Hmmm the rate im going at i can get a plane or shuttle out of here if too much happens first class and still have a lot of bucks left, unless the friggin' G.A.C lock them down first, they wouldn't do that......would they?' He grumbles at the thought of that idea, he then sees Raziel looking at, he returns the favour by starring back coldly.
    'Keep looking at me and i'm gunna rip those fugly eyes out of you.'
    "I won't shoot any of you if you don't get in my way, don't act like that boy scout person and you'll be fine." He stares at Wyzak before looking away, waiting for the bombs to stop dropping and guessing how much he would get for his treasure at 'Joeys' Before Wyzak interrupts his thoughts, unable to control himself he starts laughing himself and replies.
    "We are in church, but that doesn't stop me from wasting you."
    He puts his hand over his rifle hoping no one sees him doing it, and switches the safety off.

    <span style='color:DarkKhaki'>"Easy now you two!"
    *Colin gets up and heads over to Wyzak and adresses him quietly*
    "Now, don't tar all mercenarys with the same brush..."
    *He glances over to Sarlex*
    "Some are sell-swords, no loyalty 'cept to the highest bidder. Others work for an employer. Some can be considered professionals, not in it for a fast buck, but to build a company with a good rep for relyability. I'm one of the second."
    *Colin sighs*
    "To be honest, I'm broke. My unit's been destroyed. I'm looking for employment."</span>
  • ZeroByteZeroByte Join Date: 2002-11-01 Member: 3057Members
    <span style='color:chocolate'>"Maybe... maybe.. you seem to be an all right kind of guy", extending his hand, Wyzak reaches out and offers Colin a hand shake. "Colin right? I'm Wyzak, Wyzak Angelico. You interested in the bar I was talking about?"</span>

    <span style='color:DarkKhaki'>*Colin shakes Wyzak's hand*
    "Yeah, I'm interested. Right now I'd fight for a meal a day and a handfull of ammunition. I need work."
    *He shakes his head*

    <span style='color:Teal'>*He stops looking at Sarlex and goes back to staring at the ceiling blankly*
    "I got enough cash to buy us a round at the bar for now, and maybe a shuttle ticke, came here on a job, unfortunately my employer has probably been blown to lots of little bits by now with all the bombs dropping."
    *He listens carefully to Colin's words then looks at him curiously*
    "You make it sound like you were making a good bit before you're unit got wasted, I guess that means you had a good rep? ...Or a bad one, considering that the unit is gone now."</span>

    <span style='color:Teal'>*Raziel goes back to resting his head on the back of the pew*
    "Your life, not mine. Your problems are yours to deal with."
    *He nods and then tries to sleep while the bombs slow down, eventually giving up and sitting up in the pew restlessly*
    "Time differences between planets suck. Just got here today, haven't adjusted yet."</span>
