Trina and Fletch go to visit Hard Drive where they encounter his mother at the door. The two are invited in and go downstairs to find “Aloysius” living in his mother’s basment with his high-tech set up. The two Megs attempt to quietly take Hard Drive downtown but he resists. After a battle in the basement with the suped up surgecoat wearing Hard Drive, Fletch and Trina manage to take him down and cart him back to the MBI.
Tasha and Hans do their own investigating. The first address leads them to a residence but no one’s home. After some time the check out the second place which is the warehouse where Fletch and Hans had taken Chop-Shop down before. Nothing suspicious around the place, which is in great need of repair and marked for condemning, the two head back to the MBI and will check the first address again the next day.
Sypher does a bit of snooping of his own after cleaning up the MBI some. He comes across the files that McGrath made and makes a note of it all. He finally gets some information on one of the MBI’s missions which is that they are out for Chop-Shop since the page was tampered with noticably. Later he’s helped out by Tasha and Hans with a clogged vacuum. Both of them tell him he should request other assignments than clean up duty to which he says he will.
Protocol continues with her mission for Rilth and he calls her over to speak with her. At first she pretends she doesn’t know what he’s talking about with the future and working with McGrath, but soon gives that up to try and get some answers out of Rilth. Rilth informs her that McGrath is the one who’s at fault for things and there’s good reason why her memory had missing parts and that he won’t let cyberkats ever merge with him. Protocol asks to return after checking it out which Rilth agrees to. She finds McGrath and forcibly merges with him, learning about the NSA and some of McGrath’s role in it. Before she can get too personal, he manages to boot her out with a device. The two discuss things and as she’s been “comprimised”, McGrath decides to leave her.
After Fletch is finished with Hard Drive, he goes to the offices where he finds Josie and Joe doing research on their assignment for the ‘nip dealers of Megakat. Seems Joe’s father Commander Forge sent a fax over of some kats who’re let out on parole that were involved in Twilight City’s ‘nip deals some years back. One of them is Joe’s old boss, Derringer. The three decide the best way to handle this situation is by infiltrating the organization undercover. After they get permission from the Captain for Fletch to join in on this and the mission period, they’ll begin their plans.
4 RPG… BEGIN!

::yay! so this same day I assume?::

((lol! Dang, forgot about that show))
::heads out for her car then!:: wanna grab some quick burgers or something on the way? I’m starved. We can eat while we stake him out.
::finished gathering her data and returning to report back to Rilth at the Desert Facility of DOOM and DESTRCUTION::
((::misses that show. Dangit, where sis all the good shows go?! ;_; ::))
((LOL I loved that one too. It’s on Toon Nick))
((Stupid cable companies and the extra prices they put for all the good channels. ><))
((::bets Rave doesn’t appreciate Sage calling him “sis”… and he probably doesn’t know where all the good shows went either:: ))
::laughs a bit:: Sure. I’m buying even.
((:DIES!::))

* _Matt_ is now known as Rilth
::yep, gets back into the car carrying a sack and two drinks:: Whew, it’s a little chilly out tonight. ::handing her one of the drinks and the bag as he shuts his door softly::
I think there’s a Burger Hut on the way to the first address listed for Chop Shop.
:: at the desert facility awaiting the progress of the Cyberdemons ::
alright. That works for me. ::heading that way!:: Lets hope we get lucky.
::looks around, is left alone?:
With a good burger or finding Chop Shop? ::smirks::
(( ::comes back into the room, all bandaged up from his “beaver-induced injuries” (that were actually inflicted by the other agents and himself):: Guess the two of us have the late shift, huh? ::reformat me now:: ))
::takes her drink:: Ah well. We’ll warm up once we tackle him to the ground. Thanks. ::takes a sip. Is in her pants uniform with a navy blue t-shirt and BPV, hair up inna ponytail::
::arrives via powerlines and what not in middle of room she and the others were at before::
::snorts:: Both. There’s nothing worse than a bad burger.
((lol!!))
((::dies!::))
((::DIIIES!::))
::chuckles and waits for her to pull up inna drive through somewheres::
((::SOOOOOOODEAD::))
Upload all data to the mainframe, annalyze it, determine the most optimum technologies to utilize, and begin construction of the DARK ARMY (c). :: pauses for a moment :: Did any of you encounter Objective 2?
::walks towards where Rilth tells her, placing hand on console to upload. eyes glow electric blue as she works on the tasks:: Negative.
::stands and ambles back along the hallway, surreptitiously checking for any remaining agents under the guise of looking for something to fix the desk with:
::pulls up! orders them burgers and fries and whatever else Hans there wants::
::dressed likewise as Trina, with the exception of a black ballcap fixed over his head:: I swear to paw, if they put onions on this again… ::rooting through the sack and pulling out his burger:: Here’s yours. ::checking to make sure he grabs his, then offers Trina hers::
(( ::granted, it’s not like they’re going to have lumber around or anything, turns a corner and comes upon a stack of plywood piled at the end of the hall, kept there for quick patch jobs on the inevitable holes in the walls:: ))
::orders two MegaBurgers a large fry and a large choco shake!::
Don’t like onions? ::takes her burger afer thanking him and unwraps it::
((LOL!!))
((::DEAD::))
((lol!))
::whoa! growing boy hmm? XD geez. orders just a regular burger, fries and a sody. pulls around to pay the kat, getting money from Hans, and getting food stuffs:: Ready? They get everything?
((::dies!::))
::hands Tasha the money, taking their food and checking it:: Yep. Let’s go.
((::reads back over posts, snorks! read that Fletch was “dressed as Trina”:: ))
Not really. At least not in the quantity they usually slop on these grease patties. ::smirking, before chomping into his::
((:SOODEADSY!!!:: ))
::sets their cups in the cup holder there too. pulls out one of his burgers, and taking care not to drop anything on his lap or Tasha’s seat, munches::
((::busts up::))
((::DIIIES!::))
((lol!!))
::takes off! grabs her fries and eats while driving:: Okay so…if we see him we gonna bust him tonight or just watch or what?
:chuckles:: Any type of vegetable in this thing is good enough for me. ::bites into hers, keeping an eye out towards the little hut where Hard Drive supposedly is:: You know? A place like that screams, “I live with my mother.” You notice there’s a flower bed?
:: processing the data as all the Cyberdemons upload, tilts head momentarily as if noticing an annomoly :: Unit 1333… Protocol. There is a descrepency in your completion time. Explain.
We were told to just watch weren’t we? To find him?
::finding no one else, debates looking through the MBI’s paper files, he’s already seen most of what the computer has to offer, wonders if there’s anything more on paper and if it’s worth the risk at the moment::
(( I’m number 1337! cause I’m leet!))
((::DEAD::))
::Smirks:: We were told….but I don’t always do what I”m told
((LOL!!!))
((::snorks!:: Records indicate that you are Unit 1333. I refuse to just be “Leee”.))
I did. ::mouth full of food, swallows it without hardly chewing:: Looks like it has a basement too, from the looks of those lower windows at the base. Bet you 3 to 1 that’s where our kat’s secret lair is.
::continuing work on analyzing as she responds:: I encountered water after exiting the city’s powergrid just outside of the Defence Center. It took me ten minutes and 33 seconds to dry enough to return to my acoherent state and enter the building.
((::DIIIES!::))
((lol!))
::snorks:: Not to creative, is he? I wonder if Momma’s home? ::munches onna fry::
(( Where is Unit N00B at? He and Unit pwn3d are being disciplined by Unit Rockz0rz And what of Unit WTF ? He’s still confused ))
::grins at her:: Nor do I. Sooner we bust him, the sooner we can go after some bigger fish. ::takes a bite o’ burger::
((::dies both!!::))
((::SOOOOOOODEAD!::))
((::CHOKES::))
((lol!!))
((::DIIIIIIIIIIIIIES:: ))
True that. ::pulls into an inconspicuous (sp? I know I butchered that word. lol!) place to watch:: Hand me my burger, please? ::sipping her soda::
((::goes wipe her comp. screen and her nose::))
((Look Everyone! Sagey went ’splody! XD))
((Silence! ::duct tapes self::))
((laffs @ Sagey))
::sips on his drink, giving a shrug:: Well, I only see one light on. Could be just him, just her, or both of them together. Kind of makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
((LOL! Ryder! “warm and fuzzy inside”))
“Where did you get these diamond studded slippers, son?” “Internet, ma.”
((“Ebay, ma. Everything’s on Ebay.”))
::hands her said burger. takes a gulp of his shake and glances around::
((::DIES::))
Be more… cautious in the future than. A damaged Cyberdemon can cause just as much damage to its surroundings under the right circumstances. We wouldn’t want to attract any attention to ourselves.
::takes burger! starts munching as she glances around some:: No sign of him. You see any?
((then^))
((LOL! Sounds like Timmy Turner. XD “Where’d you get that life like real working Crash Nebula outfit?” “Internet?” “Cool!”))
::chuckles quietly at that, then sighs, glancing at his watch:: Well, we’ve been out here about an hour. Don’t think we missed him, do ya’?
((:DEAD FAIRLY ODD PARENTS!::))
((LOL!!!!))
::tosses her empty wrapper into the bag and finishes her drink:: Either that, or there’s an RPG going on tonight that has him glued to his keyboard. ((::drumroll crash:;))
Affirmative. ::says keeping expression blank::
No one’s home… doesn’t mean he’s not there. ::munches fries:: I say soon as we finish this meal, we go take a closer look.
((::DIIIES Sagey!::))
((::DIES Sage XD::))
((lol!! Whoa, what would be the odds!? Got me.. let’s go mess with his hanging Kenshin scroll! Right on!))
::nods:: Agreed. And hope he’s not lurking at his other home tonight.
(( :: is Hard Drive’s other home ::))
(( ::is, in fact, playing in THIS RPG, frowns as he reads that line on-screen:: Huh… It’s almost like they’re talking about me… but that’s silly. ::later, once he’s busted:: Anyone seen Agent Lamb? He’s been missing ever since we busted Hard Drive.))
((::DIIIIES!::))
((::SOOOOOOOODEAD:: Oh, sure. Mock me, Kutlerz. XD Mocking would be me saying that Hard Drive is sitting on Trina and calling her short))
((::dying y’all::))
Well, either way, there’s nothing going on out here. ::finishing up his fries::
((:SOOOOODEAD::))
((::JUSTDEAD!::))
((LOLall!))
::wonders how closely he’s observing her and what she’s doing… wants to upload some information on this Rilth::
(( … and surprisingly comfortable. ))
::checks her watch:: Well, shall we wait about ten minutes so we can digest our food?
((lol!))
If he’s at his other place, we’ll just have to go there too.
((Perhaps you should evaluate whether or not your likeness resembles a chair, barstool, recliner, or any other type of “sitting-on” object. ))
::finds a perfectly sized book to prop the desk up with, then goes to collect his vacuum cleaner… and vacuum/check out some offices::
((::RAZZMATT::))
((oooooo I think that was an attempt at an insult!))
((It’s a genuine concern. I care XD ))
Sure. why not. i didn’t plan on sleeping anytime soon. ::smirks. polishes off her burger, tossing her trash in the bag then leaning back in her seat::
(( If you’re in pain, I want to help. ::truly not sure which way to take that:: ))
((::laughs!:: If she makes the Geddup Noise when she moves, then I say Rave wasn’t wrong for thinking she was a stool.))
((::snorks::))
((::diiies!:: ::sniffles:: such a wonderful friend, RPG host, and above all….a soft chair. we shall miss her….))
::looks over at her:: Sure, what’s ten more minutes.
Don’t worry. I won’t bore you to death. ::grins::
::had a bit more to eat than she did. finishes up, only some of his shake remaining. tosses his trash in the main bag too. sets it on floor under his legs there. dusts paws off:: Ahhh, good eats. I can feel my choresterol rising a few more points. ::grins:: Ready to take a closer look?
:: addresses all of the gathered Cyberdemons :: Now, begin the data analsys and begin construction as soon as possible :: turns on a heel and withdraws from the area ::
::laughs:: Sure. gotta work off all that fat I just took in before it settles at my tail end. ::gets out quietly, shutting her door as softly as possible::
::offers a small smile back at her, then turns back to looking out his windshield:: Well, if that’s a promise..
::vacuums his way into the first office, checking for cameras::
::noting Rilth exiting, she grins. glances at her fellow cyberbeings a moment then moves from the console. glances about the room to see if that signal blocking command overide device thingamabob is laying about::
(( :: are in the same class as the original moving picture cameras, complete with a helper monkey turning the crank ::))
(( ::is later called to Mark’s office:: Agent Greypaw… Is it customary for you to vacuum in the dark? ::shows camera footage of a dark shape vacuuming away in each office:: ::curses… CyberKat vision being what it is, forgot to turn the lights on:: ))
::gets the car quietly, stealthy like makes way down the rest of the block towards the house. lights are all out there at the address::
::chuckles:: So you’re enjoying MKC so far?
((lol!!both))
((::DIIIIIES!::))
((::DIES::))
((::SOOOODEAD!!!::))
::going with! keeping an eye out for any approaching vehicles and whatnot. makes it to said residence and moves to the side of a window, peeking in from the side::
:: start going about their business in the desert facility, accessing computer terminals, etc. ::
((::DEAD monkey:: ::bribes monkeys with donuts… this is a tricky business… the monkeys are more than happy to help him, but they’re inherently untrustworthy as their loyalty shifts depending on the size of the donut:: ))
It’s changed alot in four years, but I suppose I still like it.
((::DIIIES!::))
((::dies::))
Yeah. Same old attempts to take over the world. Never gets old.
((::SOOOODEAD::))
::leaning against the house, ears perked, listening for any signs of activity. peers in various windows quickly. quietly to her:: Doesn’t seem to be anyone home…
::smirks:: Nope, just a tad more dangerous each time.
I suppose you get used to it.
::nods. whispers:: I don’t think so either unless he has a hidden room. Shall we try to see or stake out his other house?
Yeah, you better, or you’re dead.
::looks and scans the area to see if Rilth is anywhere as she accesses her terminal again::
Hmm… we can try the other place. If it’s a no go we’ll return here tomorrow.
::finding no cameras, checks out the office… dunno whose it would be::
:: is seemingly gone :: :: is accessible ::
Alright. ::starts creeping back towards the car with him!::
Oh yeah. ::chuckles, then checks her watch:: Well, food all digested?
As much as possible. I’ll be spending a little more time in the gym tomorrow.
::accesses it then, searching for files and any other information that may possibly be on Rilth::
::goes back to the car and gets in. buckling up ‘n all::
* Rilth is now known as _Terminal_
::smirks:: You any good at sparring?
((Rilth got demoteeeed))
::gets in as well! buckles up and heads out for the other place:: lets hope he’s at home at the the other residence.
((LOL!))
::blinks at that, slow to respond:: .. Yes.
Really. So you’re saying you can kick my tail inna two by three?
<_Terminal_> :: displays various data related to Rilth, with first sightings, notes on administrative authority, etc., but nothing particularly relevent. No data on origin, but command level is higher than the standard underling. Highly unusual ::
::slurrrrps up rest of his shake:: Indeed.
::sips her sody:: So, your father ever figure out you took his porche the other day?
Well.. that’s hard to say, ma’am, we’ve never.. what exactly are you getting at? ::somewhat puzzled look::
::frowns at this as she saves this information to memory. searches for anything else that may be of intrest or of relevancy for the future::
::takes out her gun and checks the magazine:: Nothing beyond I challenge you to a sparring match during our next shift.
::smirks:: Yes. He was a bit annoyed but since it was brought back in one piece and used for work, he let it slide.
(( Ooh, Rilth’s secret recipe to *The Perfect Taco*! No wonder he’s got Dark Kat eating out of his hand!))
::laughs:: I see. Well at least he didn’t disown you.
((LOL!!))
((::SOOOOOODEAD!!!:: :alas, his secret was shortlived when Dark Kat accidentally sat on him::))
((::DIIIIIES!:: Lessee here..its got beef, lettuce, tomatoe, onion, cheese, secret sauce, peppers, banannas? olives, celery? chicken….pork…shrimp….sour cream…ragu sauce, beans…geez! No wonder he’s so gassy!))
Naaaah. Have to do worse for that.
((::DIES EW::))
…Okay. ::takes on a sort of wry grin::
((::FALLS OVER!:: Bean-o? ::offers::))
((::snorks!::))
::snickers. pulls into place outside the other residence::
((LOL!))
((lol!!))
<_Terminal_> :: does mention the dates of upcoming staff meetings, of which Rilth, Dark Kat, and others will be in attendance ::
(( ::notes that the “staff” consists of Dark Kat, Rilth and the taco delivery man:: ))
::returns it with a smirk, then reholsters her handgun on her chest holster::
Ready?
((::diiiies!::))
