<Tessie_Reed> ::oh well okay then! will knock on Jase’s door!::
* McGrath is now known as Airship
<Airship> :: appears over Felony’s headquarters in the Alps, seemingly out of thing air :: <Alarms> :: are no doubt set off ::
<Felony> <Felony> ::but how does one get in contact with Turmoil?  Stroll right up to her secret HQ? XD call her up on her ePod phone (the e stands for evil)?  ride a batch of creeplings into the air? XD::
* Shades is now known as Turmoil
* Octavio_Rex is now known as Jason_Korat
<Turmoil> (( <mun> ::air ship! Changes name:: <Brain> … Why do you do this to me?))
<Airship> ((<Creeplings> :: being taxis are better than being used as shields, though not be much XD ::))
<Airship> ((by^))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIES!::))
* Turmoil is now known as GDK
<Jason_Korat> Enter.
<Airship> <Helecopter> :: descends from the airship and starts to make its way downwards, landing near the entrance ::
<Tessie_Reed> ::goes on in! :: Hello, Captain Korat. Are you available to speak with me for a moment?
<Felony> ::huffs noting the alarms. pulls up on several screens views of the airship above. scowls watches the helicopter landing.  has the doors open, not attacking or anything::
<Felony> ((::Dead:: <Fel> Hey least I’m not like 600 lbs of kat to carry.))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIES!::))
<Airship> <Helecopter> :: once it lands, Turmoil’s Lieutenance disembarks, and is not alone, but accompanied by grotesque looking plant creatures on either side. :: <Lieutenant> :: approaches the entrance ::
* Airship is now known as Lieutenant
<Jason_Korat> Hmm? ::to Tessie:: Yeah, sure.
<Tessie_Reed> Good. ::will close the door and go over to him:: I would like to speak with you about gaining employment with the MBI.
<GDK> (( Guys I need to exit. I can’t take part tonight. Mood not letting me.((
<Felony> ((It’s alright. ::huggles:: Feel better okay?))
<Tessie_Reed> ((mawww okay. ::hugs::))
<Tessie_Reed> ((nights!))
* @GDK Quit (Quit: Then I crashed into you like a runaway train… You will consume me but I can’t walk away.)
<Felony> ::makes a face at those plant creatures.  prepares herself and walks down and out to the entrance, wearing her Renegade get up along with a smaller DKesque hooded cape to greet her visitors::
<Felony> ((Tessie> I need a JOB.  And I’m not voluteering to be your cyberassistant anymore.))
<Jason_Korat> “::blinks:: Employment?
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Felony> ((<Tessie> Matrix and Sypher might be willing to work for donuts and hard drive space, but I need more than that.  Girl’s gotta shop!))
<Lieutenant> Felony Kat. I am Turmoil’s most trusted Lieutenant. I am here to escort you to meet her.
<Tessie_Reed> Yes.  I feel I have offered my services for free for a long time now and would like to discuss being employed here since I am working here more and more now.
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Jason_Korat> ((::dies!::))
<Jason_Korat> ::smiles some:: What brought this on? ::as he sits::
<Tessie_Reed> I have been asked to help the MBI a lot lately. I feel I should be compensated just as the other kats here for my work.  That and….I would like to help my dad out with expenses and be able to buy my own things instead of depending on him.
<Felony> ((<Tessie> Credit card debt.))
<Tessie_Reed> ((::snorks::))
<Felony> Of course.  Don’t need those… things to help.  I’m coming willingly.
<Jason_Korat> Well… what say you fill out an application?
<Lieutenant> <Plant Creature One> :: makes some kind of slurping noise, like wet leather dragged on a sidewalk :: <Lieutenant> Just a formallity I assure you. They are an integral part of Turmoil’s latest forces, and she thought it best for you to see them first hand.
<Tessie_Reed> Okay. I will. ::smiles:: Where are they and I will.
<Felony> Then lead the way, Lieutenant.
<Jason_Korat> ::scoots back from his comp:: Be my guest.
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles:: Thank you. ::will go acoherant and zappy into his computer! finding the applications and will fill it out very quickly, having it print on the printer by his computer. zappies out when done, going solid in front of his computer again:: There. All done.
<Lieutenant> :: leads the way to the helecopter, plant creatures in tow. :: <Helecopter> :: once they’re on board, lifts off into the sky and lands in the airship’s airbay :: <Lieutenant> :: disembarks, and will lead the way to an ornate war room :: <Airship Interior> :: looks as expected, with the exception of plant creatures in the mix here and there ::
<Felony> ((LOL Man I want a cyberkat for my very own. XD))
<Tessie_Reed> ((LOL! don’t we all? XD))
<Jason_Korat> ((Yes!))
<Jason_Korat> Well, lemme talk to Mark and Joe and we’ll let you know.
<Tessie_Reed> Alright. Thank you. ::smiles:: I would like to help out more and McGrath has contacted me a lot lately. I would like to be an official part of this group since I am working so much with some of them.
<Felony> ::follows the Lieutenant, glancing around once in the airship.::
<Felony> <Josie> ::pulls up outside MBI and exits vehicle. goes inside. speaks with Tansy to see which captain is in and makes way to their offices::
<Lieutenant> <War Room> :: Turmoil can be seen with other lieutenants, seemingly in the midst of planning an attack on Megakat City judging by the screen displays :: <Turmoil> Ah, I see that you have decided to act upon my invitation. :: gestues to everyone else :: Leave us. <Everyone else> :: leaves the two alone in the room ::
* Lieutenant is now known as Turmoil
<Felony> ::watches as everyone goes past her and out the doors. folds arms and looks at Turmoil::
<Jason_Korat> I’ll beat ‘em into agreeing with me. ::winks::
<Turmoil> :: dressed in full military-esque attire, walks over towards a large viewport that overlooks the region :: Such a blissful and serene environment. It is a great contrast to the deserts where I have been forced to retreat.
<Tessie_Reed> ::blinks:: Oh! please do not beat them! If it will harm someone I do not wish to work  here!
<Felony> ::goes into the room a bit further, but keeping her distance:: My father knew how to pick a lair. ::dryly::
<Jason_Korat> ::laughs:: It was a figure of speak.
<Felony> ((::DIES Tess::))
<Felony> <Josie> ::knocks on Jase’s door::
<Jason_Korat> Come in.
<Turmoil> Yes, your father :: a bit bitterly, turns to face her :: He had many enemies. One of them in particular has been a great asset, lending his biochemical experience to my disposal. He wants you dead.
<Felony> <Josie> :;enters the room. stops a moment and smiles:: What a coincidence.  The cyberkat I wanted to speak with is already here.
<Tessie_Reed> Oh…::then perks ears the knock and turns around to see Josie. frowns slightly:: speak with me? About what?
<Felony> Dr. Viper wants every kat dead so his freakish plant things can take over the world.
<Jason_Korat> ::blinks to Josie::
<Felony> <Josie> The CKIA project Browser and its attacking you.
<Tessie_Reed> ::Frowns more:: What about it?
<Turmoil> That may very well be, but even he can see reason when it suits him. And so long as he does, he remains useful to me. :: walks over to an equally ornate selection of find beverages, pouring something expensive looking into an equally expensive glass. Offers it to her ::
<Turmoil> ((fine^))
<Felony> <Josie> ::looks to Jase:: Have you informed her on what I reported to you and Captain Forge? ::not knowing that Tess was along for that ride lol::
<Jason_Korat> She already knows about it.
<Jason_Korat> ((Guys, BRB! Gotta take care of something real quick))
* @Jason_Korat Quit (Quit: I got a postcard from my brain today. It said it’s having a wonderful time.)
<Tessie_Reed> Know’s about what?
<Felony> No thanks. ::holds up a hand a moment to decline::  Is that how it is to be with you and I?  ::pulls the hood down:: You offered me a rank, a high one I assume, if I surrendered to you.  This is a very hard decision for me and if I am betrayed… ::scowling::
<Felony> <Josie> After the incident at that Internet Cafe, the discussion with the CKIA kats.
<Tessie_Reed> Oh..yes. I was there. I tagged along inside the car’s electronics.
<Felony> <Josie> You were? ::smirks:: I shouldn’t be surprised.
<Tessie_Reed> ::smiles a bit:: When it concerns my well being, I find it in my best interest to know as much as I can about a situation.
<Turmoil> :: sips the beverage herself :: Your father made deals. Deals that he had a habbit of breaking when it best suited him. Your family’s history is riddled with betrayal. I think it is I who should fear deception from you. :: sets the glass down :: That is why I am prepared to make a new proposition, if you are interested.
<Felony> <Josie> Then you know of what they’re here for and everything else.
<Tessie_Reed> ::nods::I do, and do not approve of it at all.
<Felony> By all means propose.
<Felony> <Josie> I figured as much.  Later I heard you were attacked by Browser.  So you must’ve been one of the two cyberbeings they mentioned having been “tested” with that thing.
* Kutlass has joined
<Felony> ((hey Kutlass!))
* Felony sets mode: +o Kutlass
<Tessie_Reed> I was captured, yes. The only thing they extracted was my basic information.
<Kutlass> ((Y’ello, everybody! Sorry for lateness. XP))
<Tessie_Reed> ((Hey Kutlass!))
<Felony> ((All your cookies are belong to us now.))
<Tessie_Reed> ((and your pudding!))
<Felony> <Josie> Were you able to extract anything from it by chance?
<Kutlass> ((Nuooo! You may have my cookies, but you’ll never take my milk!))
<Turmoil> Your ambition no doubt rivals my own. I would rather not befriend someone like you only to be certainly betrayed at a later time. :: walks over to a the nearest bulkhead and withdraws a classy looking 17th century rapier, and tosses it at Felony hilt first so she can catch it :: So I propose that we settle this now.
<Felony> ((::laughs!::))
<Tessie_Reed> I was able to gain a bit of its design work information before it was able to match my signature and disable my abilities.
<Felony> ::catches the rapier and quirks a brow at her:: … a sword fight?
<Felony> What exactly are we settling?
<Turmoil> A duel. To the death. The winner shall take the other’s resources and do with them what they shall. :: retrives a rapier for herself ::
<Felony> <Josie> Excellent!  Would you mind sharing this with me?  I’d greatly appreciate it, and it’d be in your best intrest as well.
<Tessie_Reed> I….do not know if that would be best or not….::Trying to determine if it would be!::
<Felony> ::busts up laughing:: You’re serious aren’t you?
* Kutlass is now known as Fletch_Ryder
<Felony> <Josie> Look… I know you aren’t fond of me, and frankly I don’t find you charming at all.  But I’ve only gone after cyberkats or cyberdemons who’ve posed an immediate threat.  The CKIA is just randomly attacking whatever cyberbeing they come across.
<Turmoil> It is the only respectable thing to do. But if I have underestimated your resolve, I could simply feed you to the Spore Pod. :: brings sword up ::
<Tessie_Reed> :pondering still!:: Well then…I will give you the information. BUT if I find you use it in a negative way against anyone I will detroy all the computers within the NSA network. Understand?  ::firmly.::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::Josie’s phone issa ringin’::
<Felony> ::unclasps her hooded cape and tosses it aside. heavy sounding than regular cloth, it lands with a thud on the floor. gets in proper defense position:: C’mon then, Turmoil.  Blades are my preferred weapon of choice… this is close enough to deal with you.
<Felony> <Josie> ::doesn’t answer XD as she gets her phone -g-:: Director Lyons.
<Fletch_Ryder> Where are you? ::sounds as if he’s in a car::
<Felony> <Josie> ::frowns:: At the Bureau.  Why?
<Turmoil> I don’t want to make a mess in my war room :: slams free hand down on a button :: <Floor Panels> :: under both Felony and Turmoil, ascend upwards, quickly depositing them on the flight deck above :: <Wind> :: blows a bit chilly off the mountains, but otherwise the area is a dramatic backdrop XD ::
<Fletch_Ryder> I’m on my way to the airport. I think you’ll want to come with me. Meet me outside the Bureau in 10 minutes. ::hangs up::
<Felony> ::gasps a bit caught by surprise at that. keeps balance though as she’s now on the flight deck.:: Show off. ::smirks and starts circling some eying Turmoil::
<Felony> <Josie> ::huffs and hangs up as well:: Speaking of… that was Ryder.
<Turmoil> :: unclasps cape and lets it fall off, and it gets caught in the wind and goes flying off over the side of the deck. Circles as well ::
<Tessie_Reed> ::frowns again:: oh…I see.
<Felony> <Josie> I need to go… ::turns then pauses at the door:: He wants to meet with me.  ::looks over her shoulder:: You want to tag along for this ride as well? ::smirks::
<Tessie_Reed> I….would it be wise?  ::worried look::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Browser> ::I can smell your feeyeearh!::
<Tessie_Reed> ::I got a nice lil chew toy for you. will that make you not attack me? ::
<Felony> ::sizing Turmoil up.  may’ve at some point in her schooling been made to learn fencing, an attempt to make her more ladylike and give her something to do to keep out of trouble.  didn’t last too long as she’s a cheater XD and fights dirty.  So while she knows a few things, she’s no expert at all, and anything she learned is mostly forgotten.::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Browser> ::…is it bacon? <3::
<Tessie_Reed> ::it can be!::
<Felony> <Josie> It would save time in any explinations.  Also I’d like the cyberkat back-up.
<Felony> <Josie>::pulls out phone:: You can hide in this if you want.
<Tessie_Reed> Very well then. ::will leave Jase a note on his desk as to where she’s going. will head out with Josie!:: Do you…mind if I merge perhaps? so I may remain hidden at least till in the car?
<Felony> <Josie> ::myline after yers XD::
<Turmoil> :: stance is that of a professional fencer, makes the first move, advancing towards Felony with a quick trust to size her up ::
<Tessie_Reed> Okay. ::will go acoherant and zappy into the phone! phone lighting up briefly before going back to normal.::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Black Sedan> ::pulls up to a stop in front of the MBI:: <Ryder> ::wearing a ballcap and bomber jacket. looking up towards the steps::
<Felony> ::moves quickly out of the way to avoid that thrust, swings rapier towards Turmoil’s hand::
<Turmoil> :: parries and knocks the blade back, almost casually :: You can move fairly well, but your technique seems a bit rusty :: taps her blade against hers a few times to keep her on her toes ::
<Felony> <Josie> ::closes her flip phone and pockets it anew. goes out of the Bureau and notes the sedan and Ryder there:: My how classy.  ::dryly and goes down the steps::
* Sagey has joined
* ChanServ sets mode: +o Sagey
<Felony> ((wb!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((WB!))
<Sagey> ((Thanks! ))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((Heyas, Sageroo!))
<Sagey> ((And, Hey Fletchmun! ^_^))
<Sagey> ((Where are ya’ll?))
<Felony> ::makes sure to be ready to block:: Why fight with rapiers?  ::grinning::  Ten paces and then firing with a gun too quick for you?
<Tessie_Reed> ((Tessie just merged with Josie’s phone and is goign with her to talk to Fletch))
<Fletch_Ryder> ::tears his eyes from the front doors of the Bureau, looking back out towards the street, waiting for Josie to get in::
<Felony> <JOsie>::yeps! is just now at the bottom of the steps in front of the MBI building thar::
<Felony> <Josie> Not going in to say hi? ::sarastic tone as she gets in the vehicle in the back::
<Turmoil> There’s no sport in that :: staying on the offensive, pushing Felony towards the edge of the deck where there are a few fighters parked along with several supply carts that are tied down :: <Pilots and Personnel> :: scramble to get out of the way ::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::is in the driver’s seat, glances at her in the rearview mirror:: I’m surprised you have the gull to be in there at all. ::pulls away, starting for the airport::
<Tessie_Reed> ::will be listening to the convo through the speaker in the phone::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Pilot> I hate it when she brings company over! <Pilot2> Yeah, I just waxed my ship!
<Tessie_Reed> ((::snorks!::))
<Sagey> ((::dies!::))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::if sageymun wants, he can go break the news to Trina about Fletch’s return?::
<Felony> ::keeping on the defensive, backing up. noting what she’s at and moves more to the side instead of back to the edge:: You know, seeing as there’s few of us strong she-kats ::blocking, attempts a thrust but isn’t as skilled obviously and working harder than Turmoil is:: why not ally yourself with me instead of forcing a surrender?
<Felony> ((LOL!))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Trina> ::after hearing the news:: WHAT?! MOMMA SPANK BAD FLETCHY-BOY!! <Joe> Well, if he didn’t write much before, he certainly won’t after *she’s* done with him! ::hands off the paddle::))
<Felony> ((::DIIES::))
<Felony> <Josie> And why is that?
<Sagey> ((DEADDEAD!!))
<Sagey> :shua!;:
* Sagey is now known as Trina_Korat
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIES!:: <Joe> Its easiest to just say “I’m sorry. you are always right and I am always wrong”. It seems to make her happy and make her stop faster.))
<Trina_Korat> ((::SOOOODEAD!!!:: ))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::Then will go wherever Trina is! be she at home or wheres?::
<Felony> ((::dead!:: <Hans> ::shakes head::))
<Trina_Korat> ::is at home with their bebbeh::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::shakes his head, focusing on the traffic::
<Felony> <Josie> What’s this about Ryder?
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::Then goes on home! walking in the door:: Trina?
<Turmoil> I have been deceived too many times in the past :: ceasing her attack for a moment as a cart gets in-between them ::
<Fletch_Ryder> We’re bringing in a specialist. One of the head scientists who’s been working on the Browser project.  He’s here to help us conduct our field research. ::glances back in mirror:: I thought, since we’re on such friendly terms, I’d bring you along to meet him.
<Trina_Korat> ::looks up from playing with Cale, smiles:: Hey you. <Cale> ::is batting atta ball of yarn on the blanket he’s on:: <Trina> Can you believe he still hasn’t said a word?
<Tessie_Reed> ::ooooo doesn’t like the sound of that!::
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Felony> Haha, you mean deceived once! And by that T-Bone-head no less! <Turmoil> SHUT IT OFF! HE LOVES ME!!))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::grins:: heh..no. Guess either the guys did something or he decided to be a kit again for a while. ::puts his stuff away before heading over to sit with her and cale:: And how’s my little boy this fine day? ::grins, trying to play with the yarn some with Cale::
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIES!::))
<Trina_Korat> ((<Felony> ::muttered:: In your own little messed up world…))
<Trina_Korat> <Cale> ::coos, smiles at him::
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::smiles, then looks at Trina:: Trina, I need to ask you something very important.
<Felony> So have I, but I’m willing to share. ::mrrr leaps up on the cart and flips up and over Turmoil to land behind her.  attempts to swing/slice Turmoil inna back with her rapier!::
<Trina_Korat> ((<Turmoil> For your information, I am a perfect match for T-Bone! <Felony> In Upsidedownlandia. <Turmoil> I am merely three years old than he is… <Felony> In dog years…))
<Felony> ((::diiies::))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((lol!!))
<Trina_Korat> ::chuckles:: You did that last year and we ended up living together. Wait… I thought that was me?
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIIES!::))
<Felony> <Josie> How thoughtful of you.  Will your charming cyberhound be there as well?
<Felony> ((::dead!::))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe>::laughs:: Oh hush.  This is serious. ::sighs:: Has…..Ryder mentioned anything in his letters about returning to MKC or about working for the CKIA?
<Turmoil> :: is sliced inna back and falls forward a moment, but quickly recovers, facing her :: You’re quite agile, but it will not be enough :: slashes the tehter holding the cart so that it starts to roll towards Felony, looking to push her over the side ::
<Fletch_Ryder> No. ::pulls in to the Megakat Municipal Airport parking lot, getting out::
<Felony> ((::dies at that timing:: <Joe> Ryder mention anything about CKIA? <Ryder> No. <Joe> I was talking to Trina.))
<Trina_Korat> Heh… I haven’t heard anything from him since I wrote to him about the Latvia incident. ::wiggles a strand of yarn above Cale:: <Cale> ::looks at it curiously, then leaps after it::
<Trina_Korat> ((::dies!::))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((lol!))
<Trina_Korat> He’s probably busy… or they’re monitoring correspondence now.
<Felony> ::small yelp as the cart comes rolling towards her. leap rolls to the side to avoid it. getting in a crouching position before standing::
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> Actually….he’s…here in MKC….working for the CKIA.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Cale> ::little mrr, will show you grown-ups, once he gets his paws on that yarn…:: <Trina’n Joe> ::end up hog-tied in yarn:: We never shoulda’ taunted the kit!))
<Turmoil> <Cart> :: rolls on past, disapearing over the side :: <Turmoil> :: attacks anew, following behind the cart with a slash ::
<Felony> <Josie> ::figures Tess will be relieved at that. exits vehicle as well and will go with him:: Why are you working for the CKIA anyway, Ryder?  I thought you were going to return to the Bureau.
<Trina_Korat> ((::dies!::))
<Trina_Korat> ::stops, looks at him:: What?
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> I’m sorry. He’s working with the CKIA on a cyberkat project. ::will tell her about what they know so far!::
<Trina_Korat> ::staring::
<Felony> ::standing and moves but left arm slashed near the shoulder. inch or so deep. moving back quickly ready to block s’more, though the hand she uses to hold the rapier is her left as she’s left handed::
<Fletch_Ryder> Yeah, well, plans change, don’t they? The CKIA operates on a much larger scale. I couldn’t very well pass up a government position, could I? ::walking towards the main terminal::
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> I wish it weren’t true but it is. I was hoping you’d heard something about it but didn’t figure you had.
<Trina_Korat> ::looks at him, then looks down with a sigh::
<Felony> <Josie> No… suppose not.  You always were more ambitious than the others.  ::going with, walking alongside him::
<Tessie_Reed> ::still listening through Josie’s cell!::
<Fletch_Ryder> I guess I wasn’t the only one.
<Tessie_Reed> <joe>::scoots over to hug her:: I’m so sorry.
<Trina_Korat> ((<Joe> You’re… taking it rather calml- <Trina> AFTER ALL THE PAPER AND INK I WASTED ON BUYING FOR THAT UNGRATEFUL….! <Joe> ::puts Cale in her arms:: <Trina> ::stops, looks down, meeeeeelts:: <Joe> :learned a long time ago that she calms down with fuzzy things:: ))
<Turmoil> :: continues to advance, looking to use her superior height and reach to overwhelm Felony before she can recover, purshing her back towards one of the parked fighters ::
<Felony> ((::DIIES::))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((lol!! <Joe> ::all he needs to do now is buy that kit a hat with a feather and some boots..::))
<Felony> <Josie> No, you weren’t. ::small grin::
<Trina_Korat> Why are you sorry? S’not your fault. I guess… I’m not upset, but… surprised. I would’ve thought he’d come back to work with us, not his old organization… After all he went through…
<Tessie_Reed> ((::SOOOODEAD!::))
<Trina_Korat> ((DEAD!!))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> I know.  I know…Still its rather shocking.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Turmoil> ::about to go in for the kill, then pauses, looking at the fighter parked behind Felony:: Hey! This fighter’s in a tow zone!))
<Felony> ::backed up towards fighter, barely able to keep her back! purely defensive now::
<Felony> ((::dies!::))
<Tessie_Reed> ((:DEAD!::))
<Turmoil> You’ve lasted longer than I expected :: small smile of victory as she brings the blade up high and strong, preparing to deliver a final thrust :: But it’s time I end this.
<Fletch_Ryder> I’d be lying if I said I’m not amazed at what I’ve heard about the NSA since you took over. Seems you’ve been turning things around some. ::entering now, looking up at the flight panel::
<Trina_Korat> ::shrugs:: Maybe… he was given a better offer.
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> Guess so…its possible after all.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Fletch> Season tickets to see the Wildkats, baby, with box seating!! <Trina> … ::vein bulging:: <Fletch> Oh crud, I forgot she’s a Maulers faaaan! ::runaway!::))
<Trina_Korat> <Cale> ::paws at Joe’s leg::  <Trina> ::sighs:: I’d ask where he is now, but…
<Felony> Wrong… time *I* end this. ::whips out one of her Vz 61 Skorpions from her side.  should’ve disarmed me before letting me on board. XD aiming it at her::
<Tessie_Reed> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Trina_Korat> ((::DEAD!!!::))
<Felony> ((::DIES::))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> ::reaches over to pick Cale up:: I just hope he’s got good reason for what he’s doing.
<Felony> <Josie> It’s because I have been.  Why are you so surprised?
<Trina_Korat> Me, too. I don’t want him to end up back under… well, you know.
<Turmoil> :: smirks :: It would seem I’ve underestimated you :: still ready to thrust the sword for a killing blow :: <Turmoil’s Foot Soldiers> :: bring their weapons to bare, surrounding the two, aiming at Felony ::
<Fletch_Ryder> I’m not. <Intercom> Flight 42: Richmond, is now in. <Ryder> That’s the one we want. ::turns to head to said gate::
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> Me either.
<Trina_Korat> :sighs:: Maybe I should… Nevermind. <Cale> ::paws at Joe;:
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> I don’t think trying to talk to him is gonna help really. ::pats cale’s back::
<Felony> ::notes the footsoldiers but pulls the trigger, single shot::
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Joe> What? Enlist!! <Drill Sgt Trina> Alright, you yella’ bellied mother huggin’ maple syrups! This is Trina’s Army now! And I *do* spank! <Army> ::wails!::))
<Trina_Korat> ::shakes her head:: No. I was gonna try and contact Admiral Sowenso and ask him about his status before all this, but… There’s no point now.
<Felony> <Josie> ::quietly goes after him now::
<Trina_Korat> ((:dies!::))
<Turmoil> :: is shot, a bit of a look of surprise at that, stumbling backward and falling over the side of the deck, disapearing from sight :
<Turmoil> :
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> No..not really. I think we know his status. ::sighs:: He was a good agent too.
<Felony> ::flicks switch ready to open automatic fire on her soldiers there:: Hold your fire! She chose this duel to the death!
<Trina_Korat> Yeah. ::stands, goes to the kitchen to make dinner:: I just hope he’ll still be a good friend.
<Fletch_Ryder> ::once they arrive at the proper gate, peers out over the disembarking crowd:: Doctor Nyus. Over here. <Tom> ::a portly bob-cat wearing a monocle and a blue suit comes off the plane carrying a briefcase:: Yes, I am Dr. N. G. Nyus. Are you my ride, young kat?
<Trina_Korat> ((::dies! XD::))
<Felony> <Josie> ::eyes the tom. will wait for Ryder to do the intros::
<Turmoil> <Foot Soldiers> :: frown, then turn their attention to the sound of clapping :: <Dr. Viper> :: emerges from the crowd, clapping and laughing sadistically :: Well done, I mussssst say. <Plant Creatures> :: abruptly turn on Turmoil’s soldiers, quickly disabling them right in front of Felony ::
<Tessie_Reed> ((:;snorks::))
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> I dunno. If he’s not careful messing with cyberkats, he may not be around much longer. ::Frowns:: Thats dangerous business.
<Felony> ::frowns at Viper but then eyes widen as his plant creatures begin turning on the soldiers.::
<Fletch_Ryder> Yes. Dr. Nyus, this is the Director of the NSA, Josalyn Lyons. Her organization is partnering with us in our research here. <Dr. Nyus> Oh really? ::holds paw out for a shake. seems to have an Austrian accent::
<Trina_Korat> I’m pretty sure he knows what he’s doing. He’s been trained well. ::voice calm, but sounding mildly strained::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::uh, intro’d himself too. Gui!::
<Tessie_Reed> <Joe> yeah…you’re right. ::smiles some, cuddling Cale some before setting him back down to play with him with that ball of yarn::
<Turmoil> Thankssssss for providing the desssstraction. Her failsafessss against my petsssss are now worthlessssss now that you’ve taken care of her. <Plant Creatures> :: make short work of the foot soldiers :: <Elsewheres> :: screams and weapons fire can be heard on the airship :: <Dr. Viper> Sssssoon thisss airship shall be under my control, and I will be able to carry out my true plan.
<Turmoil> <Viper> ^
* Turmoil is now known as Dr_Viper
<Felony> <Josie> ::glance at Ryder with a brief annoyed expression before turning to Nyus. polite smile:: Dr. Nyus.
<Felony> <Josie>::shakes hand too::
<Trina_Korat> <I really hope you know what you’re doing, Ryder…> ::pauses to rub tears out of her eyes… while she cuts onions! Yeah, that’s it!::
<Trina_Korat> <Cale> ::coos again, giggles!::
<Felony> I don’t think so.  ::aiming her gun at him::
<Tessie_Reed> ((and guys I seriously hate to but my back is killing me tonight and I’m exhausted. I think I’m gonna turn in early tonight.  You guys have fun and Fel or sagey can play Tessie if she’s needed since she’s in josie’s cellphone))
<Felony> ((okiee! ::huggles for j00:: Hope you feel better soon!))
<Trina_Korat> ((::huggles too!:: Get better, hon! Nights!))
<Fletch_Ryder> Our car’s this way. ::grabbing up what other luggage the scientist has, and then heads back out to the car:: <Dr. Nyus> I must say, you all certainly took your time getting me some viable test subjects.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((Maww, alrighty, you take care CK!))
<Tessie_Reed> ((nights! ::hugs:: Thanks! I took some tylenol so maybe it’ll help. see you guys tomorrow night!))
* @Tessie_Reed Quit (Quit: <Bill> Is that LEGAL?! <Pilot> I dunno, but its fun! – Bill Engval)
<Felony> <Josie> There aren’t many cyberbeings in Megakat, Doctor.
<Trina_Korat> ::mun’ll watch for know as she hasn’t a clue on how to play Tessie and doesn’t wanna mess up. ^^::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Hogwash! One is one too many. ::gruffly:: And do be careful with that luggage, young kat! It’s genuine Furench leather! <Ryder> ::drops it in the trunk of the car with a grunt::
<Felony> <Josie> ::gets in the back of the car again::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::opens the back door for Nyus, and he clambors in. gets in the driver’s seat himself, and pulls out of the lot::
<Felony> <Josie> ::looks to the doc:: They are elusive.
<Dr_Viper> :: chuckles :: You’re as arrogant as your father. Within momentsssss this airssssship sssshall set course for Megakat City, and it well self-destruct at high altitude, allowing my sport pod to cover the region in mutagenic particles. Not only will the City become a ssssswamp, but the entire world! <Plant Creatures> :: start to advance towards Felony, coming in-between her and Viper ::
<Dr_Viper> ((spore^ <Sport Pod> :: enough space for a surf board AND a snowboard ::))
<Felony> ((<sport pod> ::turns kats into rabid sports fans.  Superbowl Sunday is day the world will be fully taken over::))
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Yes, well, my little pet showed us how elusive they really aren’t, now didn’t he. Really, living among the populace like common.. bah! This project should have been initiated months ago!
<Trina_Korat> ((DEAD!!))
<Felony> ::mrrrs:: And what of you, Viper?  Going down with the ship? ::backs up a few steps::
<Fletch_Ryder> ((LOL!))
<Felony> <Josie> ::smirks at him:: You speak of them as if they’re rats.
<Felony> <Josie> What is it you dislike so much about cyberbeings?
<Dr_Viper> <Vines> :: can be seen starting to run throughout the airship :: <Airship> :: it’s engines abruptly come to life, bringing out of hover as it starts to head towards Megakat City :: <Viper> Oh, I’ll be around to watch it happen. You, on the other hand, won’t :: chuckles, then orders his plant creatures :: Kill her <Plant Creatures> :: start to walk towards Felony, vine tendrils at the ready ::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> They have no business mingling with pure-blooded kats! They’re technology, not kittens, like our governments have been treating them this whole time. Dark Kat only beat me to this technology by a year or so. We would’ve gotten to this age eventually, with more containment too, had he not gone and screw everything up. <Fletch> ::brow furrowing the more this guy yammers::
<Felony> ::opens fire at the nearest ones! backs up further beside that figher jet::
<Felony> <Josie> A year…?  Really doctor.  Then why is it you’ve only a canine version?
<Dr_Viper> <Plant Creatures> :: once hit with bullets they get parts blown off, but quickly regenerate limbs :: <Aircraft> :: looks highly advanced and complicated, but no doubt has an ejection seat and / or parachute within ::
<Dr_Viper> :: laughing menacingly, leaves Felony to the plant creatures and disapears back into the ship ::
<Felony> ::seeing her only option, tosses gun aside once it’s out of bullets and quickly climbs into the jet. glances around and manages to find the button to close the canopy:: <crudcrudcrud…>
<Dr_Viper> <Plant Creatures> :: surround the craft, and with an impressive display of strenth, in unison they begin to push it over the side ::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Our entire work this past year has been towards the development of a cybercreature that could neutralize the one’s already in existance. The only level of sentience we could fully control was that of a dumb mutt. No sense in pushing our luck where Dark Kat obviously failed.
<Felony> ::yelps and glances round:: Ah hah! ::straps self into the seat, finding the ejector seat button, presses it quickly!::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ::trailing off:: At least not yet.. Mr. Ryder, are we there yet? <Fletch> Almost, Doctor.
<Felony> <Josie> Don’t you realize that if you attempt to create more of them, you’re only adding to the problem?
<Dr_Viper> <Jet> :: goes plummeting off the side, just as Felony ejects :: <Ejection Seat> :: sends her flying past the airship to safety, parachute working :: <Airship> :: can be seen starting to accelerate away, disapearing behind one of the many peaks of the Alps ::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Yodeler> ::jaw drops, seeing the air ship:: Jezebel! Didja’ see that, girl? <Mountain Goat> Baaaa!
<Dr_Viper> ((::dies::))
<Trina_Korat> ((:SOOODEAD!::))
<Felony> ((::DEAD!::))
<Felony> Well.  Isn’t this a load of crud.  ::shivers a bit at the air as she slowly decends. finds her cell and hopes she can get some reception out here.  dials up the first number that comes to mind for handling this situation.  the MBI::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Now, now, calm yourself. We’re no where near that stage of development, and with your tightwad government at the helm of this, it’ll be a long, red-taped time, if ever.
<Trina_Korat> <Jason> Megakat Bureau, this is Captain Korat.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Yodeler> I must send out the alert! A-hem.. RIIIICOLOO-Augh! ::butted from behind, to his demise. all the police found later was goat fur::))
<Trina_Korat> ((::SOOOOOOOOODEAD!!!! You beat me to the Ricola joke! ))
<Fletch_Ryder> <Shade> ::is lounging around somewhere, drinking a cup of coffee::
<Felony> <Josie> You’re wasting your time, Doctor.  We’ve the proper defense for handling these cyberbeings.  We also have the means to destroy them.
<Felony> Just thought you’d like to know that Dr. Viper is heading your way in Turmoil’s airship with a large spore pod that will mutate not only all of Megakat City, but eventually the world when it explodes.
<Trina_Korat> <Jason> What?! Who is this?!
<Felony> ((<Jase> Who is this?  Steele?  I told you if you prank called here again I’d personally hang you from the flag pole outside of Enforcer HQ.))
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ReeEEAally? ::seems very interested!:: I can see then that we are finally dealing with the right kats. <Fletch> Anywhere I can drop you off, Director? ::looking in rearview mirror::
<Dr_Viper> ((<Jase> :: sighs :: Like I haven’t heard that one before. At least be original :: hangs up ::))
<Trina_Korat> ((::Dies!!!::))
<Felony> ((::dead!::))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((lol!!))
<Felony> A concerned citizen.  Check with your McGrath if you doubt any of this.
<Felony> <Josie> I’d like to go wherever the doctor is going.  Or will that be a problem? ::looks at Nyus::
* Dr_Viper is now known as McGrath
<Trina_Korat> ::frowns, hangs up, dials up McGrath::
<Trina_Korat> ((Jason))
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Ho-ho, yes, I’d like *very* much for her to come with me. <Fletch> ::silent, heading back towards their safehouse on Seacrest::
<Felony> ::hangs up as well. once she lands, makes her way back towards the alps base which may take a bit::
* Felony is now known as Josie_Lyons
<McGrath> :: waiting at Protocol’s place anew, still no sign of anyone, answers his cell phone :: Yes?
<Fletch_Ryder> ((<Prot> ::once she’s free, gets back home:: What?! Squatters! ::zap!:: <McG> .. I was throwing your welcome back party. <Prot> Oh.. wait, with 40 grenades!? ::zaps::))
<Josie_Lyons> Thank you, Doctor.  And yes, you are dealing with the right kats.  I only wish you would have come to us sooner for a collaberation on this project.
<Josie_Lyons> ((::DIES!::))
* Trina_Korat is now known as Jason_Korat
<Jason_Korat> It’s Korat. What’s this about Viper and a giant pod ship?
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Bah, you know the government, my dear. Each branch is selfish, always wanting the upper hand over the other. <Fletch> Remember, doctor, which branch is currently paying you, then. <Nyus> ::clears his throat:: So, I take it you’ve seen my pet in action?
<McGrath> … let me call you back :: hangs up and dials Felony’s number ::
<Fletch_Ryder> ((XD!! <Jase> ::still on hold when the mold in the fridge attacks Hertz, who goes running by screaming:: Would you hold it down? I’m checking on a lead about Viper!))
<Jason_Korat> ::frowns, growls::
<Josie_Lyons> I have.
<Jason_Korat> ((DEAD!!))
<Josie_Lyons> <Felony> ::shivvering as she’s marching through the snow back to the lair:: Y-y-yes?
<Jason_Korat> ::calls up Trina and tells her:: <Trina> ;:frowns, takes out her comm, calls up either T-Bone or Razor::
<McGrath> What went wrong?
<Josie_Lyons> ((::diiies!::))
<Jason_Korat> ((<Felony> The goats revolted. <McG> ….))
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ::chuckles:: Pretty impressive, isn’t it? I just hope they’ve been adequately caring for it in my absence. <Fletch> It’s well taken care of, Doctor.
<Fletch_Ryder> ((LOL))
<Josie_Lyons> <Felony> I k-k-killed Turmoil.  However Viper took adv-v-vantage of that and took over her airship! ::sneezes:: He had a buncha p-p-plant creatures so I had to bail.
<McGrath> So he’s going to blow up the ship and the spore pod over Megakat City… :: frowns ::
<Josie_Lyons> I am concerned Fido will end up causing the cyberbeings to retaliate against it… and its creators, its caretakers and the city.
<Josie_Lyons> <Felony> ::sneezes:: Yes.  Have fun with that!
<McGrath> :: hangs up, calls Jase back ::
<Jason_Korat> ::picks up:: Yeah?
<Josie_Lyons> <Felony> ::growls and puts the cell in her pocket. continues trudging on::
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ::just grins at that:: If they do, they’ll only be bringing trouble on themselves. <Fletch> ::finally pulls up into the driveway of their safehouse, getting out::
<McGrath> Dr. Viper has managed to highjack an omega-class airship that’s enroute to Megakat City. At maximum speed it will reach the city in 24 hours. He has a new spore pod and plans to self-destruct the ship over Megakat City.
<Fletch_Ryder> <Yodeler> ::seen bounding down the mountain past Felony on a goat:: I saw yer fall Miss, and I must say, it was REEEEAAALLYGOOOOD!! ::continues on his way XD::
<Josie_Lyons> If they do, innocent lives will be caught in the middle of it.
<McGrath> ((::dies::))
<Jason_Korat> ((::DYING!!::))
<Josie_Lyons> ((::DEAD!!::))
<Josie_Lyons> <Felony> I am SO going t-t-to kill that yodeller when I get b-b-back to the lair.
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> Bah. ::waves his hand, getting up and out of the car:: Wars and petty schemes of governments have always cost lives. It is a technicality of progress.
<Fletch_Ryder> ::a loud thud comes from behind the car::
<Jason_Korat> … Great. Knew that little snake couldn’t be dead. ::growling, hangs up, grabs his jacket and runs out while calling Trina:: Contact the guys, they gotta beat that airship. <Trina> In that time span?! <Jason> They’ll pulled miracles before. We gotta get this city evacuated! ::hangs up, drives towards Enforcer HQ while calling up Annie::
<McGrath> :: calls Josie Lyons ::
<Josie_Lyons> ::gets out of the car:: You’re supposed to be protecting the citizenry. ::dryly. hears phone and answers:: Director Lyons.
<Josie_Lyons> <Ann> Hello?
<Jason_Korat> Annie, breaking news. ::tells her while he drives to Enforcer HQ::
<McGrath> Dr. Viper has highjacked Turmoil’s airship. He plans to self-destruct it over Megakat City, allowing the enhanced spore pod to spread not only over the city but gradually the entire planet. At maximum spead he’ll be above the city within 24 hours.
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ::looks behind the vehicle:: <Fletch> Your bags.. Doctor. ::shows them into his hands, slamming the trunk. then attention is directed towards Lyons::
<Josie_Lyons> <Ann> Holy kats… are you sure?
<Josie_Lyons> … this is bad timing.  I thought we had more time on this.
<Fletch_Ryder> <Nyus> ::heads on inside, muttering about impertinent young kats:: <Fletch> ::remains outside::
<Josie_Lyons> :;staying on the sidewalk that goes to the house. as she talks::
<McGrath> We don’t. Whatever recourse is chosen, I’d advise not trying to blow it out of the sky, which leaves small conventional attacks as the only option. The spore pod is protected within the airship, so a direct coolant attack isn’t feasible.
<Jason_Korat> I can’t take any wild guesses right now, Annie. Just try to get this on the news ASAP.
<Josie_Lyons> ::sighs, looks to Fletch covering the phone a moment:: I need to get back to the NSA. ::then back to McGrath:: I see.  I suppose evactuation is pointless but has the mayor been contacted?
<Jason_Korat> <Chance> ::hangs up the comm after talking with Trina:: Jake!
<Fletch_Ryder> ::blinks, nodding. if mun allows, can read the concern on Lyons face over something. gets back in the car quickly, leaning over and pushing open the passenger side for her::
<Josie_Lyons> <Ann> You got it, Jase.  I’ll get a special broadcast in concerning it.
<Jason_Korat> Thanks. ::as he pull up outside Enforcer HQ, runs inside to look for Feral::
<McGrath> Not by me :: pauses :: There may be a way to stop this. If someone can get onboard and access the levitation system and set it to maximum overdrive, it’s possible that the Airship could be sent into a low orbit, freezing everything on board. At that height, once it begins to plummet, all material will burn up on re-entry.
<Josie_Lyons> ::gets in and shuts door quickly::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::squeels out of the driveway, heading full speed for the NSA. heard “evacuate” and that’s never good::
<Josie_Lyons> I’ll have to gather forces for an airstrike and get some men on board.
<Josie_Lyons> ::and that’s alright Fletchmun::
<McGrath> We don’t know how far Viper’s taken over. It’s possible that he can still operate the Airship’s defenses, both inside and out.
<Josie_Lyons> <Ann>::hangs up. gets to her boss as she was at the studios and explains the sitch. helps contact the other local stations to spread the word::
<Josie_Lyons> Have you informed the MBI of this?
<Fletch_Ryder> <News> ::sends out your friendly, every-day-warning of impending doom on the city. “Now, now, don’t panic, just be sure you’re well stocked in salad dressing!”::
<Jason_Korat> ((And, I need bed, ya’ll))
<Josie_Lyons> ((::diies!::))
<McGrath> I’m on my way over there right now :: walky walky ::
<Josie_Lyons> ((::huggles for Sagey:: Night!))
<Fletch_Ryder> ((G’nights, Sageroo! Have a good one!))
<Josie_Lyons> Good.  If they don’t need you for this, I’d like for you to go in with the NSA strikeforce.
<Jason_Korat> ((G’nights, all! ::hugs::))
* @Jason Quit (Quit: I got a postcard from my brain today. It said it’s having a wonderful time.)
<Fletch_Ryder> ::eyes going from the road to Josie, completely at a loss::
<McGrath> I’ll see what I can do :: hangs up ::
<Josie_Lyons> ::hangs up and sighs.  rubs the bridge of her nose a bit as she collects her thoughts while Fletch drives::
<Fletch_Ryder> What’s happening?
<Josie_Lyons> Viper’s planning on exploding another sporepod over Megakat.  ::looks at him::  This one will eventually spread throughout the world.  He’s taken over one of Turmoil’s airships to do so.
<Fletch_Ryder> ::brow furrows, something like shock crossing his face:: And this just came out of nowhere?
<Josie_Lyons> The NSA has been keeping an eye on this situation, but due to past incidents, we were unable to act directly.  What action was taken has failed resulting in this.
<Fletch_Ryder> ::eyes her a moment, as if wieghing what she’s saying. then turns back to the road, pulling to a sudden stop in front of NSA headquarters, no doubt going through some checkpoints:: If I can help..
<Josie_Lyons> This isn’t for you to handle.  ::gets out of the vehicle::  You’re with the CKIA now, who’re more interested in other matters.  Perhaps if you were in the MBI, it would be up to you as a local threat.  Better be sure the doctor is taken care of and his pet cyberpooch walked. ::shuts the door and turns from him, heading towards the building’s entrance::
<Fletch_Ryder> ::averts his eyes quickly, looking irritated, and quickly drives off::
