<JosieLyons> 4 RPG START HA THROW YOU IN WATER SINK OR SWIM!

<Joseph_Forge> Wrong mun, Ash. I can’t be bribed with pixie stix

<StormcrowMerle> Eep.

<StormcrowMerle> (())

<Joseph_Forge> ((ack! (()) Good thing I took swimmin lessons XD))

<JosieLyons> ::mun is evil! -g- is tonight the night for Derringer?::

<FletchRyder> ((Bwahahaha! Fel caught you guys with your parenthesis down!))

<JosieLyons> ((::busts up!::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOOOODEAD!::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((Drat! XD))

<SypherSK> ((::SOOOOOOOOOOOOOODEAD!::))

<TrinaKorat> ::is reading more about those Cyberkats, frowning at all the info she ha::

<TrinaKorat> ((DEAD!))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Joseph_Forge> ::it can be! can say they are all at the docks waiting on Derringer?::

<StormcrowMerle> ::is in the lobby, sweeping up glass and generally cleaning up from the attack by the saucer-things. Glances quickly over her shoulder now and then, though since she’s taped cardboard and garbage bags over the broken windows, there isn’t much to see::

<SypherSK> ((::reads that Joe is saying, “It can’t be!”, beats head… this is not a good sign here at the start::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOODEAD! pats Kris::))

<TrinaKorat> ((::dies!:))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((LOL!))

<TrinaKorat> ::and still needs a second opinion on those drones. xD:

<SypherSK> ::enters the lobby and looks around in some surprise, has been away from the MBI for a bit… taking some time to follow a lead on Trix’ whereabouts… it didn’t pan out, obviously::

<TrinaKorat> <Trix> ::has been hiding in Trina’s computer… unbeknownst to her, that is::

<StormcrowMerle> ::jumps a bit as Sy enters, but recovers:: Hey, Mr. Greypaw.

<JosieLyons> ::mun can be there if is cool with Fletchmun!::

<SypherSK> Hello. What happened here?

<FletchRyder> ::is so there! standing near the edge of the dock, weight shifted mostly onto his right foot. wearing a dark green sweater with cargo pants and a ballcap as he looks out at the water::

<StormcrowMerle> We had a . . . bit of a tangle with some unfriendly saucer-robot-things. ::doesn’t say more for the moment, not sure how to tell about Rebelde:: They were taken care of, though.

<Joseph_Forge> ::issa in some black jeans, black t-shirt and black trenchcoat. waiting on the dock with the others!::

<SypherSK> Oh. ::nods, is finding that these sorts of things are just par for the course at the MBI… robots, beavers, what next?::

<Joseph_Forge> <Skunk>::don’t make my mun use me! I swear she will!::

<SypherSK> ((<Robot Beavers> ::burst in the taped up the windows!:: <Sy> ….. ))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!!))

<TrinaKorat> ((:DIES::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((LOL))

<JosieLyons> ::wearing pair of dark jeans that flare at the legs, green ‘n white Nikes, green hoodie over white tank. hands in pockets. gun hidden on her person::

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))

<JosieLyons> ((::DEAD::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((So, can I RP even if I haven’t finished reediting Ash’ bio?))

<TrinaKorat> ((Go for it. We’ll see how it pans out.))

<FletchRyder> ::glances at his watch, sighs, then adjusts the bill of his hat:: So where is he?

<Joseph_Forge> ::Shakes his head, looking around:: I don’t know. He said he’d be here.

<StormcrowMerle> We’re going to need to replace the windows; I hope that won’t cost too much. ::continues sweeping:: Could you bring me the wastebasket? ::points to it::

<JosieLyons> ::ears perked and alert. glancing around some:: Don’t think he’s set you up, do you? ::asks quietly::

<Joseph_Forge> Lets hope not. I don’t think he would have.

<FletchRyder> ::wondering the same::

<SypherSK> ::goes to get it and brings it over to her::

<SypherSK> ::looks around, assessing the damage::

<StormcrowMerle> Thanks. ::sweeps some of the glass bits into the dustpan, and empties it into the bin:: Some of these shards are so small that I worry about them getting out if I carry them too far.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::enters the front door and looks around at all the mess around. To describe, he’s a kat, with the same fur coloring as the old Ash. He’s wearing a light-green shirt, blue jeans and dark blue sneakers::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((BRB, gonna run an errand. I’ll be back quick))

<StormcrowMerle> ((Okay))

* FletchRyder has quit IRC (Ping timeout)

<SypherSK> ::turns to look at the newcomer::

<StormcrowMerle> ::does too:: Good morning, sir. Can we help you?

<TrinaKorat> Hey, Merle? ::as she walks in::

<StormcrowMerle> ::hopes this one won’t be a scary random like some of the last::

<Joseph_Forge> ((;_; we scared off Kutlass…))

<StormcrowMerle> ::now looks to Trina:: Yes, Lt.?

<TrinaKorat> Puma Dyne hasn’t called or anything, have they?

<JosieLyons> ((::sobs! blames you CK::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::shakes head:: Not that I know of.

<Joseph_Forge> ((I’m sorry!))

<SypherSK> ::ears perk up, listening::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((Back))

<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: Because I”m starting to think the technology of those things hasn’t even been… I dunno… is invented the right word?

<TrinaKorat> ((WB!))

<Joseph_Forge> ((WB))

<StormcrowMerle> ((brb myself!))

<JosieLyons> ((WB!))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::and mun is SO STUPID lol she forgot she was playing me! Was waiting for CK to bring him in for some reason XD mun need sugar today! has had none::

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!:: Its okay Annu. we can’t do anything till Kutlass comes online again anyway))

* Kutlass has joined #mbi_sk

<TrinaKorat> ((WB!))

<Kutlass> ((Gui, sorry about that. My computer had a fatal error, and is now slightly shotgunned.))

<Joseph_Forge> ((WB!))

* Kutlass is now known as FletchRyder

<JosieLyons> ((LOL no prob!))

<Joseph_Forge> ((whu oh. thats not good))

<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD, Kutlass!:: Did yuo shoot it witha leg?))

<FletchRyder> ((A semi-automatic one, to be precise))

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::soon two cars pull up. nice ones, black with tinted windows. he steps out of one of them. two thugs step out of the other. the three toms approach the three megs::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::smiles and nods:: Why yes actually. I’m a new trainee here and I was wondering if you would be so kind as to show me around? ::shows Sypher andStromcrow his bio and application form and looks around at the mess again:: and I do apologize, but did I come at a bad time?

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((WB Kutlass :) ))

<FletchRyder> ::ears flick at hearing the vehiculars, back stays turned to the kats however as they approach::

<StormcrowMerle> ((back!)) ::nods to Trina:: I think that’s exactly the right word.

<FletchRyder> ((Thanks!))

<SypherSK> We were just cleaning up.

<Joseph_Forge> ::turns to see them come up:: There they are…::walks forward some and offers a hand to Derringer:: Didn’t think you were coming.

<Joseph_Forge> ((WB!))

<StormcrowMerle> Uh . . . ::glances at Trina to answer that::

<TrinaKorat> ::sees the newcomer:: Can I see your application?

<Ash_D_Wolf> Why yes, here it is ::hands it to Trina::

<JosieLyons> ::turns to see them coming. remains where she is as Joe goes, watching tensely. face remains expressionless though:: <Derringer>::grins:: Joey, Joey, Joey. You said you had a couple kats for our crew, why wouldn’t I come? ::was he told Fletch ‘n Josie were agents too?::

<FletchRyder> ((<Trina> ::scrutinies Ash’s bio:: Mmhmm.. hmm.. humm.. it says here you have extensive background in “pest control?” <Ash> Well, I once eradicated a colony of beavers from the basement of a house. They nearly used my limbs for their summer home. <Trina> You’re hired.))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dies*))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((*DEAD!*))

<Joseph_Forge> ::sho! told ‘em he trusted ‘em or something and they’d been helping him out. XD smirks:: No clue. Hiding out I figured.

<TrinaKorat> ::takes application and reads::: Oh yes. The Captain told me about you. Unfortunately, he’s on assignment right now. What we CAN do is get you settled… ::then to Merle:: Can you do me a favor and show him around and get his uniform and whatnot?

<StormcrowMerle> Um, sure, though remind me where we keep the uniforms? ::hasn’t had cause to get one::

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::smirks after shaking Joe’s hand:: Now, Joey, I ain’t done nuthin’ wrong since I’ve been outta prison. ::glances behind him at Fletch ‘n Josie:: These them?

<SypherSK> ::goes to collect Merle’s cleaning supplies, will clean while she goes… and see about collecting more information on the recent events::

<JosieLyons> <thugs with Derringer>::just stand to either side and behind Derringer. bodyguards it seems for the twirp XD::

<TrinaKorat> They’re in the locker room near the gym.

<StormcrowMerle> Ah, okay then. ::notes Sy taking over:: Thanks, Mr. Greypaw. ::turns to Ash:: Right this way then, Agent – ?

<FletchRyder> ::tail swaying nonchalantly, still peering out at the water::

<Joseph_Forge> Yeah this is them. ::walks on over and motions to ‘em to introduce themselves just incase they arranged alias’ or something::

<SypherSK> No problem.

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::follows Joe and the thugs him. stop when they reach Josie as Fletch is further back::

<Ash_D_Wolf> Oh, I apologize for my lack of manners! My name’s Matthew Ashcoat. And you ladies are – ? ::to Trina and Merle::

<StormcrowMerle> Stormcrow Merle. ::small, nervous smile::

<JosieLyons> Josie Lyons. ::says finally taking a hand out of one of her pockets. offers it to Derringer who shakes it and smirks at her:: A she-kat eh? <Josie> ::frowns slightly:: Yeah. <Derringer>::looks to Fletch::

<TrinaKorat> I’m Lt. Katrina Korat. Welcome aboard.

<JosieLyons> ((er… Derringer said “A she-kat eh?” X_x))

<FletchRyder> ::looks over his shoulder slightly, looking Derringer and his crew over as they come over. has a more serious than usual look on his face, if that’s even possible:: Fletch Ryder.

<Joseph_Forge> They been helping me at the HQ and all. I trust ‘em. They serious about this as I am.

<Ash_D_Wolf> Thank you. And…I know this sounds odd…but do you feel like we’ve met before?

<TrinaKorat> ::blinks:: Um… no.

<StormcrowMerle> Uh, not really. ::shrugs, hopes this isn’t someone from Cymric City:: Here, I’ll show you the locker rooms first.

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::looks at Fletch and smirks at him:: So what’s their stories ey? Why are you wantin’ to help us, Fletch?

<FletchRyder> ((<Trina> I don’t remember anything concerning throwing hot nachos on your head and grape soda down your shirt at the game last week when you dissed my team! <Ash> Eh heh..))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIES!::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((::DIES!!::))

<TrinaKorat> ((:DEAD::))

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<FletchRyder> I’m not here to help *you*, Derringer. I’m in this for the money. ::turns head back around::

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))

<SypherSK> ::sweeps the room carefully, looking for more glass… and anything more interesting::

<Ash_D_Wolf> Yes, please. ::follow Stromcrow:: Though I still get this faint feeling we’ve met somehow…

<TrinaKorat> Hey, Greypaw?

<SypherSK> ::looks up at her::

<TrinaKorat> You said in your resume that you’re some kind of expert with technology, right?

<SypherSK> ((<Trina> Stop stuffing evidence in your pockets like that. <Sypher> ::so busted:: <Trina> Do it more discreetly. <Sypher> ::so confused:: ))

<StormcrowMerle> Well, where are you from, Agent Ashcoat? ::tries to think up a story if he *is* from Cymric City::

<SypherSK> Yes.

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<TrinaKorat> ((::DIES::))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!!))

<TrinaKorat> Then maybe you can help me figure something out?

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((LOL!))

<SypherSK> I might be able to. ::goes over there::

<TrinaKorat> ::nods, shows him to the evidence room::

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::chuckles at that;: Easy there, tom. I’ve heard about the cruddy pay they’re givin’ you all at the MBI. ::looks at Josie:: And you? Same as him? <Josie> That… and I can’t stand the Enforcers for booting me out for an accident. ::grins a little, putting on a lil’ tough cookie act XD:: At least I said blowing up Lt. Steele’s car was an accident. Missing him was. <Derringer>::laughs a little then looks to Joe:: Alright Joey, we’ll give you and these Megs a chance.

<JosieLyons> ((did that cut?))

<Ash_D_Wolf> Me? I’m from Dellobo City. I know it’s really far away, but I liked it here enough to stay

<StormcrowMerle> ((Yep, at “alrigh”))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::laughs a little then looks to Joe:: Alright Joey, we’ll give you and these Megs a chance.

<StormcrowMerle> Cool! I’ve heard of Dellobo, but I’ve never been there. When did you move to Megakat City?

<Joseph_Forge> ::grins:: Thank you, though you already know I’ll work. I can guarantee they will too.

<SypherSK> ::follows her::

<StormcrowMerle> ::keeps trying to think of an explanation if he could have seen her::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((BRB. Again -__-))

<TrinaKorat> ::shows him one of the four drones collected:: The logo says its’ from Puma Dyne, but… not even the logo is right. It looks… upgraded.

<TrinaKorat> <Drone> :is sorta circular, kinda like Zed in his “baby” stage::

<SypherSK> ::takes it and turns it over, eyes the logo… no, it’s definitely not the current one in his memory::

<StormcrowMerle> ((<Ashcoat> So are you from around here? <LS> No, I’m a . . . student worker, from . . . Dellobo. <Ash> No kidding, *I’m* from Dellobo! What neighborhood? <LS> Uh . . . North Howlington. <Ash> No way, *I’m* from North Howlington! Do you know Fenris McFluff? <LS> . . . Wait, there’s no Fenris McFluff in North Howlington! Why, you’re not from Dellobo City at all! <Ash> . . . ))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> They and you had better. Else you know what’ll happen. We’re in the big time, and the big bosses ain’t gotten any nicer.

<FletchRyder> ((lol!))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIIIES::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((LOL!))

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!::))

<Joseph_Forge> Yeah yeah….I know what’ll happen. I ain’t been outta the loop that long.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((Back! ::but DIES!! yes again XD::))

<FletchRyder> ((WB))

<StormcrowMerle> ((wb!))

<SypherSK> ((<Trina> So, what is it? <Sypher> It’s a Zedling. If it eats enough metal, it’ll grow into a full-grown Zed. ))

<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD:))

<StormcrowMerle> ((lol))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((DEAD!))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOODEAD!::))

<TrinaKorat> What do you think? It looked awfully easy to take them down.

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> ::takes out and lights a cigar. puffs on it some and exhales the smoke:: Good. Now, we’s got a bit of a job to test out your diaper dandies over there.

<SypherSK> The logo is different… Would it be alright if I opened it up to examine its inner structure?

<FletchRyder> ((lol! <Trina> Sweet! I can add this to my pokedeck! ::tries to capture it with a small ball:: <Sy> …))

<JosieLyons> ((::DEAD!::))

<TrinaKorat> Go for it. You’d make more sense outta it than me.

<SypherSK> ((::DEADDEAD!::))

<TrinaKorat> ((::dies!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dies* <Ball> ::is a stale, hollowed donut hole::))

<Joseph_Forge> What’s the job? ::all serious now. Obvious he’s done all this before::

<SypherSK> ((<Trina> ::tries this with CyberKats too::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> I’ve been here for a few weeks actually, so I’m still not used to the surroundings, nor the weather for that matter ::is glad this place has air conditioning::

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DEAD!::))

<SypherSK> Thank you. I will see what I can learn from it.

<FletchRyder> ::grimaces at that:: <Yeah, I’ll put you in a pair of pinstriped diapers soon enough, scum bag.>

<JosieLyons> ::keeping quiet like good thugs are supposed to -g-::

<StormcrowMerle> Ah. ::shrugs:: Well, I’ve been here for a few months, staying at a motel near the bus terminal. Maybe we crossed paths at some point.

<TrinaKorat> Maybe you can show me what you find? I’d like to know what the heck this is beofre I start making phone calls.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((<Trina> And now, I’ll make my overly-commercialized electric little monster fight with your rock monster and ignore all “elemental wekanesses” rule, since my monster’s so “special”! Sypher, go! ::throws a little ball at the ground and Sypher pops out:: <Sy> Air! Precious air! ::inhales deeply:: I was beginning to choke in there!))

<SypherSK> ::nods:: I will make a report.

<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOOODEAD!!!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dies*))

<SypherSK> ((::DEADDEADDEAD!::))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> Get in with me and I’ll take you to it. ::turns now and he and the thugs go to the two cars:: Yer Megs can ride with us, Joey.

<FletchRyder> ((lol!!))

<TrinaKorat> ::nods:: Thanks.

<Ash_D_Wolf> Maybe…and where are you from, if you don’t mind telling me?

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOOODEAD!::))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIIIES ASH::))

<StormcrowMerle> Katlumbia, up near the northern border. ::lies::

<Joseph_Forge> ::nods and motions for fletch and Josie to follow. He gets into the car with Derringer, making sure there’s room for the others::

<FletchRyder> ::turns around slowly and follows them, slipping into the back mun assumes::

<SypherSK> ((<Ash> I’ve been there! <LS> Did I say Katlumbia? I mean Outer Katgolia.))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((LOL XD))

<SypherSK> ((<Ash> Really?! I… <LS> ::tenses:: <Ash>…have seen postcards. It’s really… snowy, isn’t it? <LS> Yes, yes, it is.))

<StormcrowMerle> ((Lol))

<FletchRyder> ((lol! <Ash> Vacationed there. <LS> Kitaly? <Ash> Visited a great aunt there. <LS> Swiskerland? <Ash> Bank account there. <LS> ::sigh::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*DIES*))

<SypherSK> It’s no trouble. ::moves to find a clear space at a table::

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD Fletch::))

<JosieLyons> ::follos as well, gets in the front next to the driver as the other three are in the back.:: <Derringer>::Joe is sammiched between me ‘n Fletch yep!:: <Driver>::starts driving off, the other car with the thugs follows::

<JosieLyons> ((follows^))

<Joseph_Forge> So talk to me. Whats up with this job?

<TrinaKorat> ::sits onna table, watching curiously::

<Ash_D_Wolf> Oh, I’ve been there once. It should be snowy there by now, I believe. ::pauses and looks at Merle:: If you are from there, then you’ve definitely adjusted better in this weather. Someone who used to live there once told me that it took them months before they adjusted to a warmer climate

<FletchRyder> ::mutters under breath:: Better not be snatching purses from the elderly.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((::DIES! Fletch::))

<SypherSK> ::a little bothered by the watchful eyes at first, but quickly becomes absorbed in his work as he searches the little robot for any entry points or screws::

<StormcrowMerle> ::shrugs and gives a sheepish smile:: Well, I didn’t think it was that bad. I’ve visited not far north of here a few times, so I had an idea of what to expect.

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> Relax, Joey. you’ll see when we get there. ::chuckles, puffs on his cigar some, rolls window just a small crack to let the smoke out, though most of it doesn’t::

<TrinaKorat> ((<Fletch> ::Attempts to show he’s EVIL AND CORRUPT! Goes steal the purse from the Auto Club old lady:: <Old Lady> ::beats him within an inch of his life:: Whipper Snapper! I’ll have you know that I will NOT let you take my purse! ::Transforms into…. SPANDEX OLD LADY!!! And then Sage’s train of thought went up in flames after derailing off a bridge:: <Fletchmun> ….))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> By the way, thanks for the use of yer place. Found one of my own finally in Twilight.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((<Sypher> ::laughs maniacally while fiddling with the robot:: Bow to the master grasshopper, for you are about to be probed! <Trina> ::inches away from Sypher slowly::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIES y’all!::))

<FletchRyder> ((LOL!!))

<SypherSK> ((::DIIIIIES::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dead*))

<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOODEAD!::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOOOOODEAD!:: I must create her still! ::SOOOneeds to get on that!::))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((::DIES Sage!! Spandex Old Lady, indeed XD))

<FletchRyder> ((lolAsh!))

<Joseph_Forge> No problem. ::smirks:: Glad you found you a place though. Lots easier. ::coughs at the smoke some. ain’t used to that stuff anymore::

<SypherSK> ::is he allowed to open this thing up?::

<FletchRyder> ::trying to hold his breath for as long a duration as possible without being noticable. smoking..so..unhealthy..!::

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> Yeah. Hard to run things when I’m mainly there. ::puff cigar:: By the way… how’s Tasha?

<JosieLyons> <Driver>::driving them out of the dock area of town, heading to a rougher part of Megakat City::

<TrinaKorat> <Drone> ::hardware isn’t too complicated. It looks more like the interior of a video game consol than anything else::

<JosieLyons> <Josie>::rolls her window down some lol::

<Joseph_Forge> Same as she was. She’s just fine. Why? ::narrows eyes at him some::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((<Sypher> ::opens robot up and in it, is a miniscule alien dingo:: <Sypher> What the?! <Kats In Black> ::appears out of nowhere:: We apologize but we’ll have to erase your memories of this now ::Flashy-thingies Sy and Trina::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL!))

<JosieLyons> ((<Jenna> I didn’t make that, Jasey-poooo! BUT I did bring you a matching leather vest for those DARLING pants! Try them on for me, please? ::giggles, turns to examine drone:: <Jase> -_-; No.))

<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOOODEAD!!!::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOOOODEAD!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dead*))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer> She know about these two joining in with you?

<JosieLyons> ((::DEAD KIB::))

<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD KIB!::))

* JosieLyons sets mode: +o FletchRyder

<Ash_D_Wolf> Oh, I see. Have you been to Colomyaw then? If I remember correctly, it’s close to Katlumbia

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD KIB::))

<SypherSK> ::frowns, looking it over::

<JosieLyons> ((brb! getting sugary snack and more caffinated soda. XD))

<Joseph_Forge> Yes she does. As I told you before, she ain’t gonna talk. She hasn’t in the past and she won’t now.

<TrinaKorat> ::watches him work, think again about what Merle said. Someone from the future? WOnders if he’s connected to McGrath in any way::

<StormcrowMerle> I’m – afraid not. When my mom did get a chance to travel, she took me to see my grandparents, who lived near here. Then they died, and she didn’t have time to travel anymore. ::mostly true::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((<Sypher> …Aliens.. <KIB Agent 1> ::flashy-thingies Sy again:: <Sy> …gaa…aliens…Spock <KIB Agent> ::flashy-thingies again:: <Sy> Where am I? Who are you guys? <KIB Agent 2> Dagnabbit Q, now you erased all of his memories!!))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*dies*))

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD:: <Sypher> ::bluescreens::))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOOODEAD!:))

<Ash_D_Wolf> Oh, I apologize..I didn’t know that.. ::looks at her awkwardly::

<SypherSK> ::recognizes most of the drone’s components but some seem a little.. different from what he would expect::

<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOODEAD!!!!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::shrugs:: It’s okay. I was pretty little when it happened. ::doesn’t mention her father::

<TrinaKorat> Need any tools?

<JosieLyons> ((backerz))

<StormcrowMerle> ((wb!))

<FletchRyder> ((WB))

<TrinaKorat> ((WB!))

<Joseph_Forge> ((WB!))

<JosieLyons> <Derringer>::frowns at him:: WHY does she know about these two joining up, Joey? I told ya to keep her outta our buisness.

<FletchRyder> ::idly looking out the tinted window, noticing the change of scenery::

<SypherSK> A small screwdriver would help.

<TrinaKorat> ::grabs one from the nearest one adn gives it to him::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((To go with the old tradition of saying it backwards, !BW))

<Ash_D_Wolf> So, how about your mother? Where is she now?

<Joseph_Forge> ’cause. She’s a smart she-kat. She figured it out. I told ya. She ain’t gonna talk.

<FletchRyder> ((<Hertz> ::pops head in to evidence locker:: Someone call for meehee? <Trina> He said he wanted a screw, not a screwball. <Hertz> Ahhh.. well, in that case, I’m off to sharpen pens! <Sy> ::just blinks at the normalcy of the exchange::))

<JosieLyons> <driver>::ends up in a more abandoned part of downtown in the older “historic” district. bad area now. parks in front of an old gray house with boarded up windows and door. victorian style::

<FletchRyder> ((^Screwdriver, gui))

<SypherSK> Thank you. ::unscrews this and that, eyeing the circuitry within::

<StormcrowMerle> She’s still back in Katlumbia.

<TrinaKorat> ((::SOOOOODEAD!!!!:: <Hertz> :then comes in screaming cuz’ he accidentally stuck his tail into the electric pencil sharpener::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::SOOODEADALL!::))

<SypherSK> ((::DEAD!:: <Hertz> :;this is the third time he’s run around screaming today… sharpened two fingers earlier:: ))

<StormcrowMerle> ((lol))

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!! <Hertz> ::wailing:: It aches with precision pointiness!))

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((::DEAD all!::))

<TrinaKorat> <Drone> ::in mine and Kris’ techy language which would drive Seeker up a tree – all the wires a blue and connected to the whatsit, along with a small button on the thingamajiger::

<SypherSK> I am not sure. It might be some sort of mechanism to destroy the device.

<StormcrowMerle> We’re in the hall, going past the armory. ::points to the door:: I don’t think I’m allowed to go in, but there it is. And around this corner, ::turns it:: is the breakroom, ::points:: and these here are the locker rooms, where we can pick up your uniform.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::follows Stormcrow into the locker room:: So, how long have you been working here?

<_Matt_> (( It was something like that this morning at 1:30 AM, but today someone decided to hang something via a coathanger on the sprinkler extension in their room. It broke, and flooded the east wing of the second and first floors. ))

<TrinaKorat> ((Oh, brilliant!))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIES:: morons))

<StormcrowMerle> Not very long. A couple of months, give or take. So, what’s your size? ::rummages through uniforms::

<JosieLyons> <few guys>::with big guns XD stand when they all enter. is a large basement::

<TrinaKorat> <Trina> You think there’s anyway to salvage it?

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::hears LS scream:: Miss Stormcrow, what happened? ::tries the door but can’t get it to open:: Hey, what’s happening out there?!

<TrinaKorat> ::overhears the commotion, rushes over there::

<FletchRyder> We can hash this out later, right now, we’ve got to put some trackers on those crates and dump them on whoever’s picking them up. We’ll have to let this shipment get by to impress Derringer, but we can still trace where the product ends up.

<Joseph_Forge> ::nods at that.::Right. Josie, you wanna plant those trackers so we’re sure its done right?

<McGrath> Jack Spinner is a rogue agent. He’s in collaboration with that thing that’s been chasing you. :: looks over should briefly, then turning back to her :: He has a warrant. He will detain you, and he’ll have you subjected to tests and experiments to remove your powers and destroy you.

<StormcrowMerle> What?! ::eyes wide and scared, backed up against the wall:: Why *me*?

<TrinaKorat> ::sees Ash:: What is going on in here?

<JosieLyons> Sure… You have them?

<JosieLyons> <warehouse>::on corner of Pawford and Main, old warehouse but in use. several vehicles parked in the lot. a few kats linger behind one of said vehicles which is parked underneath a busted out overhanging light off the side of the warehouse.::

<Ash_D_Wolf> I’m not sure, I heard Miss Stormcrow screaming, but I can’t get this…door…open! ::bumps his shoulder on the door::

<Joseph_Forge> ::digs ‘em out of his trenchcoat and hands ‘em back to her:: here. Quickly now. we’re almost there. ::Rubs at his face some more::

<FletchRyder> ((<Joe> I thought you had them? ::points at Josie:: <Josie> I thought he had them? ::points to Fletch:: <Fletch> The cookie disguised tracers? I thought he had them? ::points to cookie monster devouring something in the very back::))

<McGrath> Because *it* can’t harm you, and you can harm it. That talisman that’s been absorbed into your body, it carried your etherial image from five years in the future.

<TrinaKorat> Stormcrow? ::knock on door::

<TrinaKorat> What’s going on? Who’s in there with you?

<Joseph_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::just gapes at that for a moment:: . . . McGrath, what *is* that thing?

<JosieLyons> ::takes themfrom him and quickly plants each in each side of crate, putting them in a knothole that happened to be in the wood on two of them that had ‘em. third stuck underneath in a crack::

<JosieLyons> ((::DIIIES!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<McGrath> There’s no time. :: noting the knocking and the inquiries :: Jack Spinner will arrive soon. The MBI won’t be able to stop them.

<FletchRyder> ::drives slowly, checking on Josie’s progress in the rearview mirror before turning into the parking lot in front of the warehouse and coming to a slow stop a few meters from the vehicle with all the kats behind it::

<StormcrowMerle> Then what am I supposed to do? ::scared voice::

<JosieLyons> ((<Stormcrow> And who is he? A ballerina from the future? <McGrath> … I need to remind myself why you are our last remaining hope… ))

<TrinaKorat> ((::dies!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<JosieLyons> Done. ::says just as they turn into the lot::

<TrinaKorat> MERLE! ::bang on door now::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((LOL))

<McGrath> That is your decision. :: backing away, taking off down the hall ::

<Joseph_Forge> ::gets out as they stop. walking towards the kats standing there::

<StormcrowMerle> Hey, wait! ::starts to follow him::

<FletchRyder> ((<LS> I want to *live*! ::proclaims majestically, clenching fist in the air.. right before Trina and Ash kick the door open and it whaps her::))

<Joseph_Forge> ::keeps his voice low:: We got the stuff.

<McGrath> :: rounds a corner, disappearing from sight ::

<JosieLyons> ::gets out of the van as well crawling between seats and out the way Joe went::

<StormcrowMerle> ::and he be gone:: I – okay . . . ::then remembers the others calling, and hurries back to open the door::

<TrinaKorat> Merle? ::once she opens teh door:: What happened?

<McGrath> <MBI Parking lot> :: tire screeches can no doubt be heard as several black sedans fill up the lot ::

<StormcrowMerle> McGrath happened. ::holding her arms fearfully::

<Ash_D_Wolf> Yes, what happened? I was worried when I heard you scream

<StormcrowMerle> He said Spinner is working with that electric thing that attacked us, and that he’s going to come and try to – ::hears the tires screech, groans fearfully::

<JosieLyons> <leader>::she-kat with grey fur, wearing black pants that cut off mid calf, purple boots, purple top showing off her midriff under a long black trench coat. choker with a lock on it. has hair pulled back into a braid… hair is purple.:: You “Joey”? ::she asks Joe as he spoke::

<Joseph_Forge> ::Smirks:: That’d be me. Where ya want it?

<TrinaKorat> ::stare, then eyes narrow as she hears the tires screeching, takes off towards the entrance::

* McGrath is now known as Jack_Spinner

<StormcrowMerle> ::in times of crisis, does the only thing she can think of: runs. Specifically, begins making her way back toward the gym::

<JosieLyons> <leader>::eyeing them all with narrowed eyes. smirks:: My boys will unload it, after checking ‘em over of course. <kats>::two of ‘em open the back doors. then they and four others unload the stock. a couple of ‘em look like they’re users::

<Joseph_Forge> Of course. Where’s the money?

<Jack_Spinner> :: exits sedan with several similarly suited agents in tow, several wearing backpacked-cylinders with hoses and hand-held retardant projects. Others are carrying small radar-dishes with digital displays :: Seal off the perimeter. No one leaves!

<Jack_Spinner> ((projectors^))

<FletchRyder> No taste-testing, yet, boys. ::said to the thugs in the back, as he oversees their unloading::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::follows Trina:: Who is this McGrath? What did he do to make Miss Stormcrow upset so much, and what did she mean by those ‘electric things that attacked us’?

They know better. ::says to Fletch. reaches in her coat pocket:: <Josie>::pretends to care less about anything, save the money as she eyes the leader::

<StormcrowMerle> ::starts to go out the gym door::

<JosieLyons> ::pulls out envelope and hands it to him:: For a job well done.

<Jack_Spinner> <Gym Door> :: has several suits outside it, visible via the transparent section of the door ::

<JosieLyons> <envelope>::is full of money, the cost for a first job like this::

<TrinaKorat> ::holds her ground, ignoring other suits for now. Knows she can’t stop them all. Besides is more interested in their ‘leader’::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((<Ash> I knew I should’ve taken a PhD instead, but noooo I had to pick Law Enforcement! <Trina> I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that))

<TrinaKorat> ((::DEAD::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::sees the suits, and gulps:: <Trapped . . . > ::then remembers the other trick she discovered when first learning her powers, the side-effect of the fire. Hasn’t studied it much while in MKC, because of the risks, but now feels she has no choice::

<JosieLyons> ((LOL!!))

<Ash_D_Wolf> alright, what’s your plan, miss? ::whispers to Trina::

<Jack_Spinner> ((here^))

<TrinaKorat> Under WHAT authority, Spinner?

<StormcrowMerle> ::last name is Selkirk, if it matters::

<StormcrowMerle> ::Stormcrow is a nickname::

<StormcrowMerle> ::takes several deep breaths and looks out the window, concentrating on a point as far down from the suited kats as possible while still being in visible range. Entire body begins to become glowy-shimmery, almost like solid fire::

<Jack_Spinner> :: has only alias to go by, i.e. the information derived from his “source.” :: National Security. The individual you are harboring has been discovered to be a rogue terrorist, with ties to various incidents of domestic destruction. She is very dangerous.

<JosieLyons> That’s your cut. And for the boss… ::snaps fingers:: <kat>::comes over to her and holds up a breifcase to Joe:: <leader> That goes to Derringer. Tell ‘im Tony sends his love, since he didn’t screw things up again with sloppy doped up failures.

<StormcrowMerle> ::ah, okays::

<JosieLyons> ((UGH the first one was <leader>^))

<JosieLyons> ((Er make that ENZO sends his love too. LOL mun off tonight))

<JosieLyons> ((::getting my crime bosses and gang members mixed up lol::))

<TrinaKorat> She’s a Megakat Agent. Her powers are of value to us and are kept under control unless needed. Up until now, we haven’t had any use for such.

<Joseph_Forge> ((<Tony> ‘ey! Leave me outta this!))

<JosieLyons> ((LOL! ::issa sorry XD don’t wack me Tony!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::were anyone watching, her shape appears to be condensing to a center point, becoming brighter as it becomes smaller::

<Joseph_Forge> ::pockets his cut and then takes the briefcase. smirks:: He’ll get the message. ::turns to the others:: lets roll. This place issa dump. ::heads for the van to get in and go!::

<Jack_Spinner> She has concealed her prior record of activity from you, utilizing her position as an agent of your bureau to further an independent agenda related to the destruction of major city facilities. Step aside, or you will be charged with obstruction of justice.

<FletchRyder> ::shuts the back, and climbs back up into the driver’s seat, starting the engine::

<TrinaKorat> YOU have taken away property vital to our investigations! You have no right to be trespassing afer the first time.

<Ash_D_Wolf> ::stays silent, and lets Trina handle this, feeling that he might only make things worse if he speaks up::

<TrinaKorat> ((Yeah, I’m not making sense. It’s almost 3. My brain is in “going to sleep soon” mode::))

<JosieLyons> <other kats>::have sense gotten things divided and are driving off save for a couple of cars:: <leader> ::smirks at them and watches the Megs go:: <Josie>::gets back in the back of the van again::

<JosieLyons> ((since^))

<Joseph_Forge> ::gets in and sets briefcase by his feet:: head back to Derringer’s. we’ll drop this off then go get my ride and call it a night.

<StormcrowMerle> ::finally reaches a fire-white pinpoint of light, which *zips* through the air in a straight line like a laser, passing through the door, any suited kats who might be in the way, etc. with almost no apparent sensation or effect, aside from maybe a tingle of heat if anyone gets hit. Also not really visible, except perhaps as a tiny, momentary flash-line of light::

<Ash_D_Wolf> ((And I need to go soon))

<TrinaKorat> So what’re you gonna do, Spinner? Shoot me? It’s already clear that you’ve got something to hide.

<Joseph_Forge> ::gets out, grabbing the briefcase and heading inside with it::

<TrinaKorat> :sighs;; <Merle, get out of town if you have to…>

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> ::blinks at that, adjusts glasses:: Miss Merle? I’m sorry but I’m only teaching one class at Megakat University this semester, and it’s full.

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox>::thinking she’s a student there wanting to add on his class lol::

<StormcrowMerle> ::shakes head:: I’m not here for a class, Dr. I’m too young anyway. I’m here because I was told you take in “refugees” with . . . abilities.

<JosieLyons> ::finishes up her shower and such. is back in uniform. goes back to the desk room now if Fletchmun wanting to play still::

<Tessie_Reed> ::goes to stand beside Greenbox and listen!::

<FletchRyder> ((<Greenbox> ::teaches Survey of Evil Plots 101::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> ::can’t help but laugh a little:: I take who now with what? ::quirks brow::

<JosieLyons> ((::DEAD!!!::))

<JosieLyons> ((<young villains>::the future of Megakat City’s evil attend this class!:: <Felony>::getting straight A’s!::))

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DEAD!::))

<FletchRyder> ::notices Josie come into the desk room, looking damper, mildly curious as to how she’s taking this::

<StormcrowMerle> ::nods:: I can’t say too much about it. Heck, *I’m* not sure what’s going on. All I know is, there are some kats who are after me because of powers I have, and they’re going to kill me if they find me.

<FletchRyder> ((lol!!))

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<Tessie_Reed> ::turns head curiously:: Powers? Are you a cyberkat? ::Trying to detect her now if she can, or whatever it is they do but of course can’t so…::

<JosieLyons> ::takes a seat at her desk and begins pulling out paper and pen to begin writing up her draft of her report. glances at Ryder then looks down at her desk. starts writing:: Go on and say it.

<StormcrowMerle> A what? No, I’m – I guess you could call me a pyrokinetic, although I don’t think it’s science-based.

<FletchRyder> ::looks at her seriously:: What.

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox>::nudges her like “don’t say that, Tessie!” LOL:: Tessie, how about you get Miss Merle something to drink? What would you like? ::to Stormcrow::

<StormcrowMerle> Um, some cream soda would be good if you have any.

<JosieLyons> ::not looking at him as she continues writing:: I had no right to get on his case.

<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks at the nudge then looks at Greenbox:: I do not know if we have that form of drink, unless you have purchased some without my knowledge.

<FletchRyder> ::takes on a bit of a puzzled expression at that:: What makes you think that?

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> We have soda, not cream soda though. Is that okay?

<StormcrowMerle> ::nods:: That’s fine.

<JosieLyons> ::sighs and stops writing. looks up at him:: After our last conversation… concerning my opinion of Hertz and what you said to me about us all making mistakes… ::trails off::

<Tessie_Reed> Very well then. ::goes to the kitchen to get a soda! ::

<StormcrowMerle> ::holds her arms folded, with hands on the elbows, looking worried and uncomfortable::

<JosieLyons> ::goes over near Merle and takes a seat:: Who is this that is after you and… how do you know they are?

<JosieLyons> <GREENBOX>^

<Tessie_Reed> ((<LS> Oh…just look outside. <Greenbox>::Does so. sees helicopters and cars everywhere:: hm…thats a pretty good way of knowing someone is after you..))

<JosieLyons> ((::DIIIES::))

<Tessie_Reed> ::returns with the soda and hands it to Stormcrow:: Here you go. ::offers a small smile. goes to sit down::

<FletchRyder> Oh. That. ::clears throat some, adjusting himself in his seat:: Well, all I want to say this time around is that a little feline comopassion is in order here, no matter how betrayed we might feel at the moment.

<JosieLyons> ((<Greenbox> Oh no! They’re going to take me back to the nuthouse!!! ::grasps his hair! runs around in circles:: I can’t go back, I’m sane I’m sane! I have papers saying so! ::grabs computer keyboard and gets under table. sucks his thumb clutching it to himself::))

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIIIES!::))

<FletchRyder> ((lolhelicopters!! <Greenbox> Sure it’s not Publisher’s Clearing House? <LS> Last time I checked, they didn’t carry advanced tracking devices and weapons. <Greenhouse> ..Sure you’re not on COPS?))

<FletchRyder> ((lolGreenbox!))

<StormcrowMerle> His name is Jack Spinner. I don’t know exactly were he comes from, but I know he’s connected to the Megakat Bureau of Investigation somehow, a traitor or the like. I know he’s after me because an . . . associate of the Bureau told he would be coming to the Bureau with a squad to arrest me, and then he did, but I managed to slip away. They chased me through the streets, until the same associate told me to go find you.

<StormcrowMerle> ((*DIES*!))

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DEAD!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::figures that while she’s in a situation where things can’t get any worse, she might as well tell the whole truth::

<JosieLyons> I can’t trust him… even if he is sincere in not wanting to get back on the ‘nip which I’m sure he is but… He may comprimise this assignment, Ryder.

<JosieLyons> ((::DIES!::))

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> But… why me? I know nothing of pyrokenetics… do you really have power over fire? ::looks at her curiously. smiles at Tessie as she sits back down then looks to Stormcrow::

<StormcrowMerle> ::nods:: I do. Should I show you? Don’t worry; I don’t need to actually set anything on fire.

<Tessie_Reed> ::curious still, watching her and listening. processing alla this. trying to make sense of it::

<StormcrowMerle> As for why you . . . well, you were what the associate said when I asked where I should go, and I don’t have anywhere else.

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> Alright. ::nods for her to::

<FletchRyder> I know. But the fact of the matter is, we don’t really have a choice. We’re in now, that’s what we wanted, and we got it. Now, to stay in, there’s probably more leery things that Joe or even we will have to do. The question is, can you accept that risk?

<JosieLyons> ((<Greenbox>::adopts Stormcrow as another daughter. is asked at work if he’s running an orphanage now::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::holds up both hands, palms up and fingers spread, and forms a light fireball in each hand. Makes them change color a little::

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!))

<JosieLyons> “Leery” things? I can… I can deal with delivering ‘nip as we’re keeping tabs on it for the greater good.

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox>::eyes widen at this!:: ((<Greenbox> why are there so many girls with cool powers in this city?))

<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks at that, sitting up some more:: Dad….how is it possible a biological being is capable of this?

<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL!!))

<JosieLyons> ((<Greenbox> Just what IS in those Girlscout cookies they’re selling anyway?))

<FletchRyder> ((lol!!))

<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL!))

<StormcrowMerle> ::wonders what Tessie means by “a biological being”, but decides that she’s not in a position to ask questions::

<StormcrowMerle> ((LOL!!!))

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> That’s a good question… how is it you’re able to do this, miss Merle? ::lots of questions come to mind he doesn’t know if he should ask XD like “did Dark Kat create you too?”::

<FletchRyder> Good. If you can deal with that, I think you can deal with talking to Forge one-on-one and getting some of this on the table.

<StormcrowMerle> To tell the truth, I don’t know how I’m able to do it. I call it magic, for want of a better word.

<Tessie_Reed> Then you were not created by someone such as Dark Kat? ::i’ll ask it then! XD::

<StormcrowMerle> Huh? No! Of course not.

<StormcrowMerle> I’m a normal kat. I just happen to be able to shoot fire out of my hands. ::weak chuckle::

<JosieLyons> But… standard procedure would dictate that we just drop the case if there has been a situation to arise that could endanger it and those involved.

<FletchRyder> ((<LS> ::actually just carries around flamethrowers concealed up her sleeves all the time. she had an accident at Pumadyne involving them and some glue, and she’s forgotten all about them::))

<JosieLyons> ((::DEAD!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ((*DEAD*))

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> No one … experimented on you? ::mun laughs Tessie’s boldness::

<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))

<StormcrowMerle> ::shakes head firmly:: No, I swear.

<Tessie_Reed> ::Frowns. cringes some at that. doesn’t like experiments and all now thanks to DK::

<Tessie_Reed> You are lucky then.

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> Er well I suppose I can keep you here for a little while then… but tell me, where are your parents?

<StormcrowMerle> I suppose – wait. ::gives Tessie an odd look:: Did someone experiment on you?

<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::Hey now! you drop the case and my life and my parents and my sister’s life could be in danger!::

<Tessie_Reed> I AM an experiment.

<FletchRyder> Lyons, I think any time spent with Derringer could be classified as a dangerous situation. That’s just a part of the undercover work. Talk with Forge, hear what he has to say, and then after that, if you’re not convinced that we can pull this off, I’ll be with you to request the Captain throw out this assignment.

<StormcrowMerle> My mother’s outside the city, and I don’t want her to get involved. Enough people are in danger already. ::again, doesn’t mention her father::

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> Oh of course not don’t be silly. ::quietly:: Tessie. ::like SHHHH XD::

<StormcrowMerle> ::gives Tessie an O_o look:: Uh . . . okay . . .

<Tessie_Reed> ::clueless look at Greenbox:: What? She is like me, dad.

<JosieLyons> ::sighs at him. puts elbow on desk and leans face into palm of her hand:: Fine then… but when he’s come off his ‘nip high. ::grumps::

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> Not exactly, dear.

<StormcrowMerle> ::raises her hands a bit:: Look, whatever this is, it’s okay. I’m not exactly in a position to tattle on you. ::raises a brow:: As long as you’re not a vampire or something like that. ::doubts that’s the case, but isn’t really controlling her mouth right now::

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox> ::snort laughs a little at that:: No she’s not… just… ::sighs, palms face:: Go on and show her Tessie, since she did reveal her abilities to us.

<FletchRyder> ::nods, silently letting out a held breath:: I’m glad you’ve come to that decision. Let me know of your assessment once you get a chance to talk.

<Tessie_Reed> ::nods to her dad then holds out a hand and forms a ball of electrical energy in it::

<JosieLyons> Of course. ::looks down at her paper now. tapping tip of pen there, unable to write anything now at this::

<StormcrowMerle> ::small gasp, stares at it:: Wow . . . So you’re an . . . I guess the word would be electro-kinetic?

<JosieLyons> <Greenbox>:: sits up now, moving hand from his face lol:: The proper term is cyberkat actually. ::smiles a little::

<FletchRyder> ((Whoo-boy, and now it’s my turn to crawl to the sack.))

<Tessie_Reed> ::makes it disappear now:: I was created by Dark Kat and have sought refuge here. Tell me, did Lt. Korat tell you to come here? She is the only one I know of that knew I was here.

<Tessie_Reed> ((Nights Kutlass!))

<StormcrowMerle> “Cyber-kat”? ::puzzled look, then catches on:: I’m guessing making balls of lightning isn’t your only power, then.

<JosieLyons> ((Night Kutlass!))

<StormcrowMerle> ((Goodnight!))

<FletchRyder> ((Goodnight everyone!))

* JosieLyons is now known as Dr_Greenbox

<Dr_Greenbox> ::nods to Stormcrow’s statment, but waits to hear answer to question::

<Tessie_Reed> No it is not. I am fully capable of merging with other biologicals and with electrical equipment, as well as do anything a high powered computer may do as well.

<Dr_Greenbox> ::that Tessie asked;:

<StormcrowMerle> ::O.O::

<StormcrowMerle> Biologicals . . . you mean regular kats?

<Tessie_Reed> Yes. Like my dad here. ::motions to Dr. Greenbox:: and I ask again, did Lt. Korat send you?

<Dr_Greenbox> Yes. She’s like a living computer. That’s the best way to think of it. But she’s learning how to become like a regular “biological” kat. ::smiles::

<Dr_Greenbox> ::er my line before yours XD::

<Tessie_Reed> ::i’m sorry. I didn’t know it was your turn baby…yeaaaaah! XD Sory. mun has had to see Austin Powers too much::

<Dr_Greenbox> ((LOL!))

<StormcrowMerle> ::long exhaling breath:: Wow. Just . . . wow. And I thought being able to create fire was a big deal. ::has a thought:: <Merge with equipment and act like a computer? . . . No, I can’t ask her to get involved.> No, Lt. Korat didn’t send me. I didn’t know you were here, actually: I was told to find Dr. Greenbox by a very interesting person who’s connected to Spinner somehow. I thought he was after me, but since he was the one who

<StormcrowMerle> warned me Spinner was coming, I guess I was wrong.

<Dr_Greenbox> And he is… who? Do you know his name?

<Dr_Greenbox> Maybe I know him?

<Tessie_Reed> I have told no other shy of Keanu where I am and it seems as though you know my dad took me in…because of the way you talked.

<StormcrowMerle> I don’t know if you would. His name is McGrath. I don’t know his first name. ::wry chuckle:: He seems to be some sort of time traveler, like in that movie with the robot.

<Dr_Greenbox> Time traveler? ::scratches his head::

<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks. looks at her dad on that one::

<StormcrowMerle> ::nods:: I admit, it would explain a lot of things.

<Tessie_Reed> ((and I must away to bed now myself. I gotta actually get up in the morning. ugh))

<Tessie_Reed> ((Nights you ladies! ::huggles::)

<StormcrowMerle> ((Heh, yeah, it’s 4 AM where I am))

<Dr_Greenbox> ((okay! We say that LS spends the night then? on the sofa or something?))

<Tessie_Reed> ((it’s three here and I need to be up around 8 or so. ))

<StormcrowMerle> ((But hey, this is a good sign! This is what the RPG is all about))

<Dr_Greenbox> ((for tomorrow?))

<StormcrowMerle> ((works for me.))

<Dr_Greenbox> ((lol yes it is! staying up late XD))

<Tessie_Reed> ((Yes indeed! and yes that works for me too! can say Tessie gave up her bed or something))

<StormcrowMerle> ((::sings:: “Sleep in late tomorrow, MBI tonight!”))

<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL!))

<Dr_Greenbox> ((LOL if only I could sleep in. -g- :;takes naps tho XD::))

<Dr_Greenbox> ((Night ladies!))
