Chris managed to escape from the NSA and makes her way to the MBI. She goes in search of some of her synthetic blood but instead finds Josie who’s with Mark. After an argument and a tranq, Chris collapses asleep and Mark has McGrath get her the blood she needs. Mark then drags Josie to his office where they talk about all of this, that is until that Invader guy appears. He threatens them saying he’s planted a dirty bomb, and they must bring the Dragon Sword to him else the bomb will detonate. Mark goes to get Joe and plans on heading straight to the location specified.
<Josie_Lyons> RPG GO!
<Josie_Lyons> ::so! we’ll start with the same day… Josie picking herself up off the ground, holding her neck, going into the MBI building. picked up phone as well along the way::
<NSA_Smith> <Gracie>::is available for harassment. Catching up on her paperwork and such after her vacation ;__; She would have loved to stay in the cabin for at least another two weeks XD::
<Joe_Forge> ::issa hiding out in the MBI still. lol!::
<Josie_Lyons> ::goes in search of where Joe ‘n Mark went to, or anyone else for that matter.::
<NSA_Smith> <Gracie>::I’m at my desk :3::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::is returning to his office::
<NSA_Smith> ::A call comes into Josie’s Cell phone::
<Josie_Lyons> ::answers:: Hello? ::in hallway::
<Joe_Forge> ::is hiding in his office! asleep he is! lol! passed out with head on the desk::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::perks his ears to hear Josie::
<NSA_Smith> Director Lyons… There has been a incident.. The vampire has escaped her cell.
<Josie_Lyons> ::in hallway near the offices of the superiors!::
<Josie_Lyons> What? :;asks a bit choked. coughs a bit:: How did that happen?!
<NSA_Smith> We have been going through the security footage, and we can’t figure out how she managed it. One of the guards thinks she might have stolen a key to her room last time her vitals were taken. We aren’t sure where she’s heading to.
<Josie_Lyons> ::mrrs:: I have a guess… Send out some collection teams, and send one on the way out here.
<Mark_Sulfur> Lyons?
<NSA_Smith> Yes, sir. ::abruptly hangs up::
* McGrath has joined #thebureau
* ChanServ sets mode: +o McGrath
<Josie_Lyons> ::hangs up as well, turns to Mark:: Mark. That kat returned… nearly killed me.
<Josie_Lyons> ((hey Matt!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((hey matt!))
* NSA_Smith is now known as _Christian_
<Joe_Forge> ((Hey Matt!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::frowns, seeing her neck:: C’mon.
<McGrath> ((I’m running late, stuck in a meeting. Don’t know how long this will take))
<Josie_Lyons> I’m fine… I’m fine just… I think I might know who it is.
<Josie_Lyons> ((s’okay!))
<Joe_Forge> ((Thats fine. take care of your meeting!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((S’fine!))
* McGrath is now known as Matt_in_meeting
<Josie_Lyons> ((OF DOOM!^))
<_Christian_> ::spite the slightly chilly weather she is wandering aimlessly down the street. In the scrubs she was put into and her wrist restraints still on her wrists. a stolen trench coat is nearly swallowing her whole. Head down as she walks.. slowly towards the familiar building far down the stree::
<Josie_Lyons> But there’s another issue unfortunately I need to take care of before it arrives. ::smiles and pats him on the shoulder:: May I borrow a tranq gun?
<Mark_Sulfur> ::gets her some ice:: Try me.
<Mark_Sulfur> ::means who it could be::
<Josie_Lyons> I still may be wrong but… I’m wondering if perhaps this is Spinner. ::walking towards the armory::
<_Christian_> ::head tilts up when she sees the MBI building.. begins to quicken her pace. She knows she has blood in the fridge.. she just needs to get it in time. By the time she’s four blocks away.. she breaks out in a full out run. Bare feet hitting the concrete hard::
<Mark_Sulfur> We thought it was Spinner the last time. ::tho’ tone of voice doesn’t contradict her::
<Josie_Lyons> I know… I know… It’s just what they said to me outside. ::hoping Mark’ll unlock the armory for her XD::
<Mark_Sulfur> What? ::putting some ice on her neck::
<_Christian_> ::makes it into the building. Tries to regain her composure and be as casual as possible… which isn’t that easy. Heads towards the break room hoping the blood in there wasn’t consumed by Cole already::
<Mark_Sulfur> ((Arhg. BRB))
<Josie_Lyons> He said he’d get to me later… used some wire cord which he nearly hung me with. ::puts icepack on neck under chin:: Told me I wouldn’t be able to micromanage my way out of that one. Who would try stealing a sword from Joe, attacking you all here, then later want to deal with me later?
<Josie_Lyons> ((ok!))
<_Christian_> ::digs around in the fridge and finds no blood. Curses and kicks the fridge in digust!::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::eyes narrow:: so he’s finally showing his face…
<Mark_Sulfur> ::goes open up the armory::
<Josie_Lyons> Maybe. Maybe not. Again I can’t be sure but this guy has access to things and knoweldge of NSA equipment and old projects…
<Mark_Sulfur> If he’s coming after you, I want you to stay close to me. ::because, dangit, he was really responsible for breaking us up in the first place. Rar. XD::
<Josie_Lyons> ::lol blame it on Spinner huh? XD:: You… might not want to comply with that completely, Mark.
<Josie_Lyons> Besides, he’s more after Joe and Trina and that Dragon Sword at the moment.
<Mark_Sulfur> Dare I ask why not? ::in his “no nonsense” tone::
<Josie_Lyons> ::reaches to try and take a tranq gun and some tranqs XD outta there:: There’s been another safety risk in the Bureau. I’m working on remedying that.
<_Christian_> ::frowns now, after leaving a dent in the fridge door.. heads now towards the basement..::
<_Christian_> (( <Josie> Spinner’s just jealous Joe can pull off the lampost act and he can’t. <Mark> ::snorks:: ))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::dies!::))
<Josie_Lyons> ((LOL!!))
<Mark_Sulfur> What’re you talking about?
<Joe_Forge> ((LOL!))
<Josie_Lyons> ::if he lets her, loads it up and readies it:: You believe in vampires, Mark?
<Joe_Forge> ::is actually still asleep in his office. Poor boy isn’t sleeping well since this intruder keeps attacking. is protecting that sword!::
<_Christian_> ::making her way down the stairs now. Being quiet. She’s hoping Cole is down here… but she’ll be greatly mistaken::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::frowns:; Meaning what? ::feeling a cold chill now. Did she find out about their two agents?::
<Josie_Lyons> Meaning you’ve got one in your midst. ::heads out towards the main room down there to where the stairs are::
<_Christian_> ::remains very still at the stairs. Lurking in the shadow there. Listening…. SHe knows that voice… Grits her teeth and her ears fold back::
<Mark_Sulfur> That’s ridiculous, Josie.
<Josie_Lyons> Mark please, believe me. She isn’t like the ones you read about in books either. She’s different, and I’m dealing with the problem so you don’t have to put yourself or your agents in dang- ::stops at the bottom of the stairs, looking up seeing Chris:: er. ::aims the tranq gun::
<_Christian_> …. You.
<Mark_Sulfur> <Crud…>
<Josie_Lyons> ::fires a couple tranqs towards her::
<Mark_Sulfur> Stop! ::grabs the gun and pulls it upwards::
<_Christian_> ::comes into the light, eyes solid red, dodges the shots. Going towards Josie growling::
<Josie_Lyons> Mark! ::as the tranqs go upand over Chris’ head! ack sees she’s coming, tries to push him outta the way:: What are you doing?!
<Mark_Sulfur> ::gets in the way, then to Chris:: Agent, stand down!
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Chris>::leaps down… on Mark’s head::))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD!!!))
<_Christian_> ::growls at the two of them. She wants to obey.. She really does… But doesn’t. Keeps heading towards them::
<Joe_Forge> ((LOL!!))
<Mark_Sulfur> How’d you find out about her?! ::to Josie::
<Josie_Lyons> Observation. That’s what the NSA is for. I learned she was an agent of your Bureau and didn’t want to see her harming you or the Bureau. ::tries to aim the tranq gun again::
<_Christian_> ::wants to hurt Josie… Bad. But she stops when that Traq gun is aimed at her::
<Josie_Lyons> Did you know about her, Mark?
<Mark_Sulfur> Of course I knew about her! And, she was alright!
<_Christian_> ::aren’t i the patient one? I’m looking for blood and wanting to kill one of you.. but I am just standing here::
<Josie_Lyons> But left uncheck can you be sure she’d stay that way? And what if someone learns of her? The Bureau’s in enough scruitiny already, Mark!
<Mark_Sulfur> Which is why we’ve been careful!
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Joe> Y’all quit yellin’ and growlin’ down here? Some of us are tryin’ to get some sleep!))
<Joe_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD!!)
<Josie_Lyons> ::sighs:: I’m taking her back to the NSA. ::goes to fire another couple of tranqs towards Chris::
<Mark_Sulfur> Why are you so stubborn?! ::grabbing the tranq gun again::
<Josie_Lyons> Why are you so trusting and leniant?! ::struggles to keep hold of the gun lol::
<_Christian_> ::oh you evil wench! One of those traq darts go RIGHT into my neck! Charges towards Josie now. Very very much ticked off::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::curses beneath his breath and attempts to elbow Chris in the stomach::
<Josie_Lyons> ::turns ’round ready for her, lets Mark have the tranq gun, whips out her gun about to shoot::
<_Christian_> ::when Mark elbows her in the stomach, Chris goes to shove the heel of her hand into his nose::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::is hit, tumbles down the basement steps::
<_Christian_> ::now goes to shove Josie down the steps too::
<Josie_Lyons> ::hisses at Chris now:: You stupid beast! ::fires off gun but is shoved first! shot rings out up the stairs and bullet embeds into the wall there. falls down the stairs and lands on Mark::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::groans, wipes at blood coming out of his nose and mouth::
<_Christian_> ::growling, goes down the stairs and grabs onto Josie and yanks her up:: I hate you both. You want a beast? Then FINE. ::snarls in Josie’s face, then looks at Mark… oh no… he’s bleeding. Not good for a starving vamp::
<_Christian_> ::will drop Josie.. but that dart will start taking effect on her before she can even attack Mark::
<Josie_Lyons> ::yelps as she’s grabbed up then dropped:: Mark! ::mrr tries to grab hold of one of Chris’ legs there lol to trip her up::
<_Christian_> ::leg is grabbed… but not stopping. She’s slowing down but not:: … Run… Get out of here… Please….
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Mark>::bitten, turned into a vampire. later on pouting:: You mean I can’t turn into a bat or anything cool and sleep upsidedown or land on spotlights to try and call Batman? <Chris> … you’re not going to last long, I’ve got a feeling. <Cole> ::shakes head::))
<Joe_Forge> ((LOL!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::stands up quickly::
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::DEAD::))
<Josie_Lyons> ::being drug with Chris onna floor lol::
<_Christian_> ::she doesn’t want to attack anyone. Even if she’s starving, goes to move towards mark again.. then… THUD. She falls not very gracefully onto the last few stairs there..::
<Josie_Lyons> ::pants heavily, catching her breath. gets up and aims her gun at Chris, backing up, making sure she’s ready in case Chris isn’t KOed::
<Mark_Sulfur> She’s down already. ::getting in front of the gun::
<Josie_Lyons> ::lowers it and looks at Mark:: She’s unstable. She needs to be contained.
<_Christian_> (( <Chris> I’m only unstable because of you, woman. ))
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Josie> Shhhh. XD))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::dies!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> She was stable until you put her under observation.
<Josie_Lyons> She saw your blood and went after you, Mark!
* Matt_in_meeting is now known as McGrath
<McGrath> ((taking a break))
<Josie_Lyons> ((lol long meeting?))
<McGrath> :: having heard the noise of the gun shot, makes his way towards the area, walking towards them ::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::sighs heavily::
<Josie_Lyons> You don’t realize the danger you put yourself in everyday with your very own agents.
<Josie_Lyons> ::inna basement at bottom of stairs::
<Mark_Sulfur> Oh, kats, that again?
<Josie_Lyons> What again, Mark? It’s true!
<McGrath> There a problem in here? :: probably stepping into a puddle of blood there ::
<Josie_Lyons> ((<puddle>::was just cherry syrup Chris found to freak people out with::))
<_Christian_> (( <Mark> Josie just thinks I’m taking risks with my agents… again.. <Josie> =__= <McGrath> Well.. she is a bit insane… <Josie> You’re so not helping. ))
<Mark_Sulfur> One of your OWN tried to kill YOU!
<Josie_Lyons> ::looks at McGrath about to respond when Mark says that. frowns:: I’m just… I’m just trying to protect you… that’s all… ::starts towards the stairs::
<_Christian_> ((okay folks I need to go die in bed. Long day at work tomorrow.))
<Josie_Lyons> ((lol okay, night Chrismun))
<_Christian_> ((night night <3 <3 <3))
* @_Christian_ Quit (Quit: It’s only Love from Above that could save me from the Hell of Below)
<Mark_Sulfur> ::sighs heavily, then to McGrath:: There’s synthetic blood around here somewhere. Can you get her some? ::goes and grabs Josie’s arm:: You and I – conference.
<McGrath> :: frowns at the scene :: You can’t micromanage like this, Lyons. :: as she heads up the stairs ::
<Josie_Lyons> … fine. ::marches up the stairs, calling up the head of the teams she was having to come here to nix the mission and wait until further notice. hears McGrath, pauses a moment but continues on to the conference room::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::drags her to his office. Rar. XD::
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Chris>::snooores on the floor, wakes up later thinking it was all a bad dream. until her clothes tell her otherwise:: I hate this city.))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((:SOOOODEAD!!::))
<Josie_Lyons> ::to his office then is drug!::
<Joe_Forge> ((::DIIES!::))
<McGrath> :: will retrieve said synthetic blood in the meantime ::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::closes his office door: just… really. What… ::sighs, gathers his thoughts, tries again:; Why… :;fails::
<Josie_Lyons> ::standing there, looking at him, waiting for him to say what’s on his mind when he finds the words XD::
<Mark_Sulfur> Why are you trying to protect me?
<Josie_Lyons> Someone has to, you’re not always doing such a good job of it yourself.
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Joe> Hey! Jase and I protect you when we have a guys night out. <Mark> No, you try to hook me up and that’s not protecting, that’s sending a possibly psychotic she-kat with issues on me that wants for me to buy her drinks, dinner, and tickets to movies in exchange for a kiss and endless phonecalls of how cute they like totally think I am. <Joe> For the record, that was Hans who picked out that one… ))
<Mark_Sulfur> ::eyes narrow:: And, you? You’re not exactly the patron saint of guardian angels.
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DEAD!!))
<Joe_Forge> ((::DIIIES!::))
<Josie_Lyons> ::mrr:: I just WORRY about you okay? I worry about you and your katforsaken Bureau!
<Mark_Sulfur> Since when? Last I checked, you wouldn’tve minded this katforsaken Bureau getting shut down for its own good.
<Josie_Lyons> ::huffs and turns from him, placing hands on back of one of the chairs in there:: I’ve had a change of heart. You serve a good purpose…
<Mark_Sulfur> ::arches a brow:: Well, thanks. My agents all do. ::doesn’t mention himself XD::
<Josie_Lyons> I was including you too, Mark. ::turns to look at him::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::small snort:: I don’t do anything other than bark orders. :;looking down:; And, you’re right. Maybe I *am* blind to some things, but I try to make darn sure I know who comes into this place.
<Josie_Lyons> You can’t always know…
<McGrath> <Voice> No, he can’t :: from behind ::
* McGrath is now known as Invader
<Josie_Lyons> ::erk! turns to see Invader thar!::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::frowns, spins around, getting in front of Josie::
<Invader> I see you got out Lyons. I’ll have to be more creative next time.
<Mark_Sulfur> You stay away from her. ::darkly::
<Josie_Lyons> ::pulls out her gun::
<Invader> I wouldn’t do that, otherwise you won’t hear about the bomb I’ve planted.
<Mark_Sulfur> ::feels his fur crawl:: What?
<Josie_Lyons> A bomb?
<Mark_Sulfur> ((<Invader> ::huffs, steps up and yells so they can hear better:: YES! I’VE PlANTED A BOMB!))
<Josie_Lyons> ((::dies!::))
<Invader> A radilogical dispersal explosive, to be precise. A dirty bomb.
<Josie_Lyons> ::frowns:: And you’re telling us because you want what, the Dragon Sword?
<Invader> Precisely. You’ll have it delivered at the base in Megakat Desert where Dark Kat formerly occupied. You’ll do this 24 hours from now. Just to show you I’m serious, here’s a sample of the U-235 I used. :: drops a brick of glowing material on the floor that thuds down ::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::tail twitches::
<Josie_Lyons> Why do you want the sword so badly?
<Invader> :: doesn’t reply, drops a smoke pellet onto the ground which explodes in a flahsh. Once it’s clear, he’s gone ::
<Josie_Lyons> ::holds arms up on reflex, coughs at the smoke::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::coughs, too::
<Josie_Lyons> ::frowns when he’s gone:: Where’s Forge and the Sword?
<Mark_Sulfur> ::growls:: I’ll take care of it. ::doesn’t want her to go. If this is who they think it is, isn’t about to let him get a second chance at hurting Josie::
<Josie_Lyons> What? I’m coming with you.
<Mark_Sulfur> I’m NOT letting him hurt you. Not again. ::goes get the sword::
<Joe_Forge> ::you gonna have to pry it out of my mostly warm fingers! XD has it in his lap actually. one hand resting on it while he sleeps::
<Mark_Sulfur> ::knocks on yo’ do’, Jo’ XD::
<Josie_Lyons> ::following Mark as she’s stubborn::
<Joe_Forge> ::no answer! Hey I slept through shooting and other stuffs. what makes you think I’ll wake up now?::
<Josie_Lyons> ((<Mark> ::kicks at door!:: OWWW… ::nearly breaks foot:: How does McGrath do it? <Josie> ::shrugs:: Bigger boots?))
<Joe_Forge> ((LOL!))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::d9es!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::dies, even. No, I’m not in denial. XD))
<Josie_Lyons> ((::dies! was like “why for she denying that in leet?::))
<Josie_Lyons> You sure he’s in there?
<Mark_Sulfur> ((::d9es!::)
<Mark_Sulfur> ((DANGIT!))
<Joe_Forge> ((::DEAD!::))
<Mark_Sulfur> Yes. ::opens the door, blinks at sleeping Joe:: Forge.
<Joe_Forge> ::jerks awake at his name! lol!:: Hmm? Yeah? ::rubs at his eyes, squinting at the compter to see what time it is:: Crud..sorry, Mark.
<Mark_Sulfur> He came back.
<Joe_Forge> ::Frowns:: who? ::is out of it still. lol! give him a minute to wake up XD::
<Josie_Lyons> Who do you think, Forge. ::steps behind Mark lol, scowling::
<Mark_Sulfur> He’s got a dirty bomb planted somewhere… and unless we deliver the Dragon Sword to him, welll…
<Joe_Forge> ::glares at Josie. is not how he wanted to be woke up:: Great…he’s gonna get it alright. I’ll run him through with it. ::standing up, holding it in hand when he does::
<Mark_Sulfur> <Sword> ::glowy oooooooooooo::
<Josie_Lyons> At least wait until the location of the bomb is learned before that, please- ::erk narrows eyes a bit:: Is that … glowing?
<Mark_Sulfur> <Sword> ::drat. Witnesses. Stops the glowy thing!::
<Joe_Forge> Nope. Figment of your imagination. ::looking to mark for instructions::
<Mark_Sulfur> <Mark> Dark Kat’s former base in the desert.
<Josie_Lyons> ::scratches head a bit::
<Joe_Forge> ::nods:: We shoulda destroyed that place
<Mark_Sulfur> then let’s make it count this time.
<Josie_Lyons> We’ve 24 hours. Let’s not waste a minute of them.
