[Naked Crook]

NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:33 PM Delta watched the pod launch away. Delta turned to Hayes. Hayes: Good work on getting those two off the ship. Delta: Its my job. Hayes: To be honest...with all the shit that goes on...your a Godsend! Delta looked at Hayes confused. Hayes: Well...nobody here would have been able to separate those freaks! Lyons was stupid and short sighted for being such an asshole to you! Delta: Oh...yeah. I agree. Hayes: You know...for now...I want you to head up security on the ship! Keep things smooth and keep things running. If you need anything or someone has a problem, send them to me! Delta: Really? Thanks Hayes! Hayes: First thing is first...go and check on that Shella lady...you have known her longer then I have... Delta: Right... Delta nodded. he walked to Shella room and knocked on the door. Delta: Lenner! Open up! Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:33 PM once 411 reached his longsword, for good mesure he fired its cannons at the life boat obliterating it he then approached the ships holo table and placed the skull on it *meanwhile* shella opened the door shella:yea? Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:36 PM A hologram of Slomyg blinked up to life on the holotable. Ah, excellent job 411. And Toligs status? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:36 PM 411:deystroyed Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:41 PM Slomyg grinned. Wonderfull job 411, now return to base. Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:42 PM 411 looked confused 411:i thought i was done Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:45 PM Think of it as a reward. At the base there will be a folder on the table, it contains every detail of your "Past life". Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:45 PM 411 started flying back to base NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:48 PM Delta looked at Shella. Delta: Look...I am sorry about what just happened. I couldn't risk you getting injured by that thing. You called it your brother, is that correct? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:48 PM shella:yes NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:52 PM Delta: Brother or not, that is not the man you think it is. I spoke with him...it does not even recall its past. It did not know its own name, nor was it willing to indulge me with any other information. I remember you telling me your brother died. Whatever that thing was, it wasn't your brother. I kept you away because I was concerned for your safety. Do you understand? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:53 PM shela:yes KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 03:54 PM i still don't see how this helps NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:56 PM Delta: Well...your more reasonable then Max is...that's for sure. Good. Know that I didn't confine you because I am an overbearing, egotistical jerk. That had nothing to do with it. I did it for your own safety. I know how irrational female humans can be...they tend to stop thinking when in the middle of an emotional response. Delta stepped aside. Delta: I just wanted to speak with you that's all. You are free to leave. Meanwhile: Beckett: I am showing you whats wrong with you so you can focus on your own rehabilitation. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 03:59 PM (lol irrational) okay? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:59 PM shella:ok then NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:04 PM Beckett nodded. Beckett: Alright...go improve yourself. Meanwhile: Delta: If you need anything...let me know! KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:06 PM ....? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:07 PM shella:okay *meanwhile* max finished packing c4 into a bag NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:08 PM A Marine looked at Max. Marine: Whoa...what are you planning to do with all that C4? Meanwhile: Beckett: What do you want? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:09 PM max:stuff, training exercise KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:10 PM so thats it? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:10 PM Marine: Training? With who? There are no training regiments this month! Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:11 PM max:specific training. max walks out towards the hanger NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:14 PM Hayes was still in the hanger. He was inspecting the damage done to the hanger by Tolig's and 411's fight. He looked up from his PDA and saw Max. Hayes: Hey! Where are you going? He grabbed Max by the shoulder. Meanwhile: Beckett: Your a sex addict, your a whore, your pregnant. You need to focus on improving yourself to a standard. Something respectable...something established. Focus on a point in your life that was very good and strive for that level of respectability. Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:15 PM The longsword 411 was in docked into Slomyg's secret medical facility. 411 you may take the folder if you wish...Or you may start life anew, What will be your choice? KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:17 PM So i think about how i was before i got fucked up? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:27 PM 411 looked at the folder than hte door, unsure *meanwhile* max whiped around and struck hayes in the side of the head knocking him unconcious Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:29 PM No pressure, Im sure whatever decision you make will be the right one. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:29 PM 411 picked up the folder... Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:33 PM Im sure your choice was a good one. A door opened to another room to 411's left. Now if you will enter the door to your left. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:34 PM ..and ripped it in half Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:37 PM An interesting choice 411. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:39 PM 411:if i am ment to be the same, then when I make my new future i will be the same as before. if not then.. 411 shrugs 411:good luck with your work slomyg 411 leaves the compound Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:40 PM Have a nice life 411, May we meet again. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:41 PM Delta walked into the hanger bay and saw Max's pelican leaving. He saw Hayes unconscious on the ground. Delta knelt down next to Hayes Delta: Hayes! Delta opened a comm channel. Delta: Beckett! Get your ass to the hanger bay! Beckett: I am on my way! Delta watched the Pelican leave from behind the sealed doors. He snarled. Delta: Don't these people understand discipline? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:42 PM max:well slade, our adventure starts here NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:48 PM Beckett entered the hanger bay. He looked at Delta. Beckett: What happened to him? Delta: I found him like this. Someone just left the ship. I am assuming both incidents are related. Beckett: Damn. He has sustained serious trauma to the head. Whoever did this...hit him as hard as they could right in the temple. He has suffered a massive concussion! Delta smelt the air. He looked at Hayes and could Smell Max on him. Delta: It was Max who did this... Beckett: Vernette's kid? Delta: Trust me...I have spent a lot of time around her...I don't get a scent like that wrong...its her...she did this! Beckett: Why? Delta: I do not know. Get hayes to the medical bay...I will try and find out why! Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:48 PM max:slade? cubanpete24 02-14-2010 04:54 PM *20 minutes earlier* (I'd assume 20 minutes, because like, you know, a. the ship would've exploded by now, and b. Vernette and company can be placed anywhere by now) Eugene looked at his watch Eugene: 7 minutes. 34 seconds. Doug24: Oh shit.....OH SHIT! NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:56 PM (So Eugene shot Picard right? And Picard came stumbling out of the room?) cubanpete24 02-14-2010 04:57 PM (Picard's dead in his office, Eugene left the sticky note+smiley face thingy) kenshin 02-14-2010 04:57 PM slade apeared "sorry, distracted." Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:58 PM max:now to find out where lance is.. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:59 PM (alrighty) Vernette and RTJ came to Picards office. Vernette looked at RTJ and nodded. The entered and saw Picard dead on the ground. Vernette: Ohhhh....we are too late! Vernette picked up the stick note. He shook his head. Vernette: Well...my involvement officially ends. Let's hope Kirk can hold his own against this maniac... Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 05:01 PM A metallic arm came down from the ceiling and picked up the skull. Ah, To have a phsyical body again. And sane mind. The metallic arm dropped the skull into a capsul filled with a boiling liquid. The skull sank to the bottom as another pair of metallic arms took DNA sample's and slowly bone's,organs and cells began to form. All I have to do is wait. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:04 PM "you have any idea where he is?" slade asks with a slight smile cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:04 PM Jermaine looked at Picard's body. Jermaine: Hmm....Not to jump to any conclusions, but I think we should get off this ship. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:05 PM max:nope kenshin 02-14-2010 05:07 PM "well not to worry i've set the autopilot to our destination. it took a bit of digging to find the exact location but we'll be there in a matter of minutes." slade replied NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:09 PM Vernette: I don't like it when people jump to conclusions! Vernette stood up. Vernette: However...I have no further reason to be here. So yes...lets leave. Meanwhile: Delta walked onto the bridge. Delta: I want a full account of every Pelican currently not on the ship! Officer: Well...Pelican Echo-225 was destroyed a month ago, Pelican Charlie-091 is missing, no reason why. Vulture 000 was taken by Vernette. Delta: Track the transponder of Pelican Charlie-091. Officer: It is on a direct course for Earth! cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:11 PM Jermaine: True....True. I was just about to say, that Eugene may or may not have entered this with a "No witnesses" attitude, but likewise, jumpiing to conclusions isn't the best idea ever. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:12 PM max:good kenshin 02-14-2010 05:14 PM "you know delta will follow." slade added NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:15 PM Vernette: Wait...wait...no witnesses? Vernette paused. Vernette: I hate to sound like a total downer here...but is he going to kill EVERYONE on this ship? Meanwhile: Delta: Prepare to take us about...take us back to Earth! Officer: Any reason why? Delta: ONI Security... Officer: What about the Elites? They still need our help! Delta: Transmit everything we know...then jump us back to Earth! Let them trash the Brute cruiser...we have larger issues at hand! Officer: Alright, alright...chill... The officer transmitted the intel. The Cloak and Dagger plotted a course for Earth and jumped to Slip Space. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:16 PM max:i know the pelican landed kenshin 02-14-2010 05:17 PM "he'll kill lance if you let him out." slade stated bluntly Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:19 PM max: i know max walked into the compound and came to lances cryo stasis tube, she looked at the controll pad which was blocked by super strong glass only accesable by delta and vernette, max blew open the glass with all the c4 cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:20 PM Jermaine: Like you said, jumping to concluions, it won't get us anywhere. Jermaine started to speed up his walking pace. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:21 PM "you giving lance a death sentence? why not just leave him?" slade asked after the smoke cleared Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:21 PM max partaly unfroze lance from his shoulders up NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:23 PM The Cloak and Dagger dropped out of slip space over Earth. Officer: Pelican Charlie-091 is landed in Norther Canada. Delta: Damn it! Tell Beckett to meet me in the hanger bay. Tell him to bring the suppression drug! Contact Director Vernette...inform him of the situation! Delta ran down to the hanger bay. He jumped into a Pelican and started the ignition. Beckett ran into the pelican. Delta: I need your expertise...in medical stuff. Beckett: So that's why your putting me in danger...makes sense. The Pelican flew down to Norther Canada and landed outside the compound. Meanwhile: Vernette saw Jermaine sprinting. Vernette: Fuck it...lets assume the worst and lets just fucking run to the hanger bay! Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:24 PM max locked the compounds outer doors max:whyd you do it lance? kenshin 02-14-2010 05:24 PM "what the fuck?" lance asked as he moved his torso. he looked at max. "must be dead. no other way i could see you." NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:25 PM Delta and Beckett ran to the outter compound doors. They were locked. Delta: Tye! Open the doors. Tyber: I need 30 seconds to bypass the locks. Standby. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:26 PM (lance is frozen from shoulders down. unfrozen from shoulders up) max:whyd you do it lance kenshin 02-14-2010 05:29 PM (i know but he just went from frozen to unfrozen so thats his only explanation.) "lyons was gonna blow up the cloak and dagger if i didnt. i had no choice i couldnt let you and everyone else die." he said Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:31 PM max: ok then, just wanted some closure max refroze lance and put slade into her bag and put him in the corner oposite to lances cryotube, she theen unlocked the doors and walked out kenshin 02-14-2010 05:33 PM (wtfu---------------BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:33 PM Delta charged into the cryo stasis room. He saw Max. Delta: What the hell are you doing? Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:36 PM max:gestured to frozon lan ce max:i just got abit of closure, and you thought i couldnt get over lance NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:39 PM Delta: Nearly killing Hayes? Breaking into a classified facility? Using that possibly rampant AI chip? Sorry Max...my orders are VERY clear on this... Delta grabbed Max's arms and cuffed her hands behind her back. He forced her to the ground. Delta: No exceptions. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:40 PM (damn) kenshin 02-14-2010 05:41 PM (that was epic) Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:42 PM max:okay delta, i understand KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:42 PM (that bitch had it coming lol) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:45 PM Delta: Vernette warned me you might attempt something like this. He instructed me to place you in the same cryo stasis Lance is in, should this event come to pass. Delta picked Max up and dragged her to an open stasis tube. Delta: Consider yourself fortunate...if you were anyone else...I would have gunned you down. Delta forced Max into the tube and sealed it. He walked over to a control panel and activated it. Delta: Nothing personal Max. Once I get into contact with Vernette...he will deal with you. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:47 PM as max started to freeze seh waved goodbye to delta, smiling NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:49 PM Delta walked over to the tube. He clenched his fist. Delta: Well...I can wait here I guess... Beckett examined Lance's cryo tube. Beckett: His eyes are moving. Is he conscious? Delta: Yes he is...he can see and hear everything...he just can't respond. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:51 PM lance looked right at becket idiot.... Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:51 PM maxim fine with this i can ocupy mself until vernette gets her.. alright 2 to the power of 2 is 4.. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (lol) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (Does ice make people want to do math or something? Also, I need to drag Vernette here. I will super post after this so give me a minute or two.) kenshin 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (k) KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:53 PM (math is evil) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:02 PM Vernette and RTJ ran to the Vulture. Vernette jumped into the pilot seat and the Vulture sped from the Huntsman's hanger bay. The Vulture was shaking from the speed. Several large explosions could be seen from The Huntsman. The ship cracked into several pieces. Vernette: Holy shit...that was...bad... Vernette sighed. He then noticed the Cloak and Dagger was in orbit of Earth. Before Vernette could contact the Cloak and Dagger, he recieved a message from one of the officers. Vernette read the message. Vernette: Attention Director Vernette. The Brute brought us back to Earth under the assumption that ONI secrets were going to be compromised... Vernette thought for a moment. Vernette: SHIT! Lance! The Vulture landed in the Cloak and Dagger so Vernette could drop RTJ off. Once RTJ had disembarked, Vernette flew to Northern Canada. His Vulture landed outside. He ran inside the base and saw lance was srtill frozen. He saw Delta looking at Max's tube. Vernette: Delta! What happened? Delta: Max tried to break lance free. I managed to stop her. As per your orders, I threw her on ice. Vernette: Hmmm...Max... Vernette walked up to Lance's tube. Vernette: Perhaps I should put a bullet in your head! Vernette grinned. Vernette: Whats that Lance? I can't hear you! Speak up! Vernette laughed. he knocked on the glass. Vernette: Fuck you Lance. Delta approached Vernette. Delta: What do we do with Maxie? Vernette: Let her out! Delta walked over to the controls and began to thaw Max from the cryo stasis. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:04 PM max sepped out max:delta, i wasnt trying to let lance out, check the security feed NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:07 PM Vernette: Oh really? Delta: You still nearly killed Hayes! You broke into a classified facility! Tyber: She did thatw him out. I already checked the feeds. Delta: You also have a corrupted AI! Vernette: These are pretty heavy charges Max...begin explaining yourself! Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:08 PM max:then, i refroze him after 10 seconds of conversation NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:11 PM Vernette: You still violated a standing order! My standing order! I don't like it when people disobey my orders! Surely you know that? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:11 PM max:yes i know that, i knew teh risks NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:18 PM Vernette: I would think my own God damned daughter would understand the simple rule of OBEY MY ORDERS! Vernette paused. Vernette: I am not letting you off the hook for this! Vernette glared at Max while he pointed at Lance. Vernette: This fucker STAYS ON ICE! Do not interact with him, do nothing. Don't even thaw him for 10 fucking seconds! SO help me God almighty Max...NEVER...EVER...thaw him again! This asshole tried to kill me. This is his punishment for pissing me off! An eternity of hell! Vernette paused. Vernette: From this point forward your clearance is revoked. You will not be able to fly, pilot, or operate any vehicles. You will only be allowed to leave the ship under my authority. You will not be allowed to utilize any weaponry or equipment. Doing so, contrary to MY orders, will land you in your own personal hell...do I make myself clear? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:19 PM max:yes sir NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:22 PM Vernette: Good... Vernette looked at Delta. He gestured to Max. Delta grabbed Max and guided her out of the main chamber. Vernette turned back to Max and glared. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:22 PM max didnt resist kenshin 02-14-2010 06:22 PM shuya watched this all ahppen interesting he fears lance? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:25 PM Vernette: Another one of these uncontrollable psychos. I could end it right here and now. I could end him right here and now... Vernette pointed his gun at the stasis tube, lining up a shot with Lance's head. Vernette: No...its too easy for you Lance. Once I wrap up that little loose end...I will freeze his ass right next to yours. Shuya can't run forever...it is only a matter of time before he is found. Meanwhile: Delta: I have never seen him that pissed before. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:27 PM max shrugged max:i wasnt letting him out you know NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:28 PM Delta: Still...Vernette doesn't want him out. He made that very clear to you. When you blew out the locking mechanism...anyone can just walk in an unfreeze him now. You fucked up Max. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:43 PM max:delta, theres somthing called a new locking mechanism, or 500 feet of titanium NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:51 PM Delta: You came her for closure? Why would you want closure from the man who tried to murder your father? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:52 PM max:just wante to know why he did it NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:53 PM Delta: I know why he did it. I can answer that for you right now. Delta cleared his throat. Delta: I tried to kill your father Max because I am a treacherous little bastard, and I was hoping to spread your legs later that night! Delta: Even I knew that...damn...I thought you would be able to piece that together Max. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:56 PM max:i thought that to, but turns out according to him lyons would blow up the ship if he didnt do it NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:57 PM Delta: Max...I haven't been shot in the head that many times to believe that crap! If that were true...why didn't he just tell Vernette right away...instead of shooting him? Think Max! Come on Max...your smarter then this! Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:58 PM max:...which is why i didnt belive him, which proves he is 100% lying shit NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:01 PM Delta: At least you WERE smart enough to see through that crap. Delta and Max stepped into the Vulture. Delta: No hard feelings about the whole throwing you into the cryo tube right? Killer 2 02-14-2010 07:03 PM max:none KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 07:06 PM (can i just skip to my chick being no longer a whore?) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:07 PM Delta grinned. Delta: Good... Delta laughed. Delta: We all know I have been pretty rough on you over the years. -Breaking your back, -Tossing you around -Chewing you up -Beating you up Delta: Most people would tell me to fuck off! (If you want) Killer 2 02-14-2010 07:09 PM max:yea.... well living hell starts in around.. max looks out the window of the pelican at the c and d max:approximatly 12 minutes NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:11 PM Delta: Well...Vernette was just pissed. You saw what he did to RTJ...and how quickly he took them back. I am sure things wont be that bad. I will see if I can talk him out of it. Its funny...he has a worse temper then I do at times...pretty odd. (FYI Vernette is still on Earth, Delta is flying the Pelican and Max is in the back I would assume) KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 07:13 PM goes to room picks up a laptop lets see if i can still hack things accesses the doctors files and deletes anything he wrote on things Tina told him whats this vernette stuff oh shit exit exit now! i hope no one noticed NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:26 PM (lol...I need to get Vernette back to the ship) cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:37 PM Eugene's pelican hovered outside the Huntsman. Eugene: Yankee Doodle rode to town...riding on a pony- Doug24: Your insane. Eugene: When haven't I been insane. Life is a giant joke, and when you tell the same joke a one too many times, it gets to ya. Doug24: I can't believe we were wasting our time looking for you. For Pete's sake, the AI version of you is more Eugene. Eugene: AI version of me? Doug24: What? AI version of you! Preposterous, Eugene: Wait a tick.....When Beurscott gave me, you. He said it was an AI of myself yet.... Your nothing like me. Doug24: Well....I'm sure that can all be explained in a....uhh....LOOK A- Eugene: Where is it Doug. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:46 PM Vernette walked back to his Vulture and returned to The Cloak and Dagger. Once aboard, he returned to the armory to find RTJ. Vernette: I don't know about you guys...but barely escaping a doomed ship really gets on my nerves. I don't like it one bit. However...to be honest...I cannot let someone like this run around free. We need to find and eliminate Korman. cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:56 PM Soap: I agree, I've heard of the guy in the past 5 hours or so, and I already want to kick his ass. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:58 PM Vernette: I know where he is going next...if all of you care enough to go and mop the floor with his face. cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:59 PM Soap: Where's this bloke headin'? I wanna break every bone in his body. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:00 PM Vernette laughed. Vernette: Did you just say bloke? cubanpete24 02-14-2010 09:01 PM Soap: Did you just say bullet in head? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:07 PM Vernette: No... cubanpete24 02-14-2010 09:08 PM Soap: Lovely, now let's go find this son of a gun! KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 09:09 PM no one broke down my door so i think no one noticed good NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:13 PM Vernette: It is very likely that he will be heading to the dead ringer...to kill Korman KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 09:22 PM why won't it exit! Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 10:09 PM After some time Slomyg's body completly reformed. Slowly he raised out of his tube. It feel's simply refreshing to be alive again. Stepping out of the tube and donning his armour he stretched. Now I need a courier to fetch my chemical's and take care of problems. Slomyg rubbed his eyes. I shouldn't of let 411 go.... Slomyg paced the lab. Looks like I need to get some under my employ..... Slomyg went to a filing cabinet and pulled out a folder. Now let's see.....I still have 98 in debt to me. Slomyg grinned. Looks like I need more in debt to me. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 10:11 PM Kate:theres no way this day can get worse cubanpete24 02-14-2010 11:17 PM Soap: So we're going to save Kirk? Killer 2 02-14-2010 11:47 PM 411 walked around on the surface of mars, got in his longsword and plotted a random jump NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:11 AM Vernette: Well...are we going to save Kirk? No...not our mission. Our mission is to find Eugene and...eliminate him...if we run out of options. Meanwhile: Delta looked at Max as they walked through the halls of The Cloak and Dagger. Delta: So...I guess its over between you and Lance? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:13 AM max:you could say i gave him the "cold shoulde" (badom ch! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:14 AM Delta: That's very cold hearted Max... Delta chuckled. Delta: We're jerks. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:16 AM max:very "punny " jerks though NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:19 AM Delta: Its too bad though. I respected Lance. He was a good friend. However...he thought it was a better idea to knife my trust in the back. Despite his treachery...it was still kinda tough to throw him in that cryo stasis...knowing that he is always conscious...fully aware...unable to move, thing...he can only observe. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:22 AM max:you dont fuck with my family NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:24 AM Delta: Clearly... Delta paused. Delta: Max...how did that AI know where Lance was? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:26 AM max:dunno.. he said itt took some snooping NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:30 AM Delta: Remind me to ask him about that. However...all things considered...things are pretty good right now. I cannot complain about too much that's going on. Things got better when I eliminated Falcon Claw. Killing those jerks made my life so much better it seems. Delta laughed. Delta: Killing is the answer to all of life's problems it seems! Well...killing assholes anyways. But I have to know max...what are you going to do about squad placement? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:33 AM max:squad placment is the least off my worries. i cant even do target practice wihtout vernettes permisson NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:35 AM Delta: Oh yeah...that's right... Delta whistled. Delta: So...as you humans say...your grounded! Delta began to laugh. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:40 AM max:basicly NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:43 AM Delta: I'm sure he will reconsider...just chill for a bit. Think of it this way...you basically get a vacation. I wish I could get a vacation... Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:46 AM max:i guess... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:48 AM Delta: No its true. You can relax and do nothing now! Take advantage of this! Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:50 AM max:yea!.. what should i do just lie on my bed? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:51 AM Delta: Its what I used to do! Whenever I had time off...I loved to sleep! Go back home and just sleep... Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:53 AM max entered her room, turned up the heat to a comfy level and started to sleep NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:54 AM Delta: Alright Max...talk to you later. Delta stopped. Delta: Max...where is that Slade AI? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:56 AM max:mmmmmm NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:57 AM Delta: Max? The AI? Where is it? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:58 AM max:in lances holding facility in a cabnet NakedCrook 02-15-2010 01:00 AM Delta: Awww...I have to go back there? Damn...alright. See ya later Max. I will be back soon. Don't go anywhere! Delta walked off and headed for the hanger bay. Killer 2 02-15-2010 01:01 AM max:*mumble mumble* NakedCrook 02-15-2010 02:27 AM Delta was walking to the hanger bay. Delta: So Max is going to sleep her life away now cause Vernette dropped the hammer on her. he was really pissed. Tyber: I have never seen him like act like that... Delta: Never? Tyber: Oh...he has his temper...but...that was just pure flipping out! Delta: Damn. Should we ask why? Tyber: Later. Delta: before we go and get Slade's AI chip...we should check on Hayes...see if he is alright. Tyber: We have the time. Delta walked into the med bay. he saw Hayes was on one of the beds. Delta looked at Beckett. Delta: How is he doing? Beckett: Better...however...I don't see him in action for a few days. he took a nasty blow to the head. Delta: But he will fully recover right? Beckett: Yes... There was a pause. Beckett: Look...When it comes to the whole rank thing...I am a doctor...not a commando, or some sort of war hero. I don't know very much about commanding ships and fighting bad guys. I heal people. With Hayes out of commission, and no other ranking officers on the ship...command falls to me when Vernette is not around... Delta: Whats your point? Beckett: I want you to take over for me...in terms of the command responsibilities when Vernette is not around. With Hayes out of it for the next little while, and Vernette off the ship more often then not...someone needs to keep the ship going...it won't be me! Delta: So...you want me to take over your job as second officer? Beckett: Yes...permanently! Delta grinned. Delta: People are going to hate this! Beckett: Quite the opposite actually. At least here on the Cloak and Dagger anyways...people seem to tolerate you more lately. Must have something to do with kicking the crap out of all those augments. Delta: Well...in that case...I can do that for you. Beckett: Good...you can start now. I will let Vernette know of the transition of responsibility. I was never cut for command anyways. You look like you have a firm grasp of it. Tyber: moving up in the world... cubanpete24 02-15-2010 01:44 PM Arnie: Hold on.....Look not to sound like I know everything about this guy but.....I may know everything about this guy. He complicates things, For example, why set explosives on key parts of a ship, when you could've just gone to the bridge, and set the self destruct? Paul: Why're you jumping to conclusions saying he set charges Arnie? Since when were you the go to guy on situations like this. Arnie: A. Because I'm a fucking genious and B. I don't think the ship just felt like blowing up. Who knows maybe This Eugene character entering the ship made it want to explode, I dunno. Soap: So what're you saying Arnie. Arnie: You said something about a list earlier right? So I'm just thinking, Eugene isn't going to Kirk just yet, but he's going to take a detour of some sorts. Jerome: Tiny does have a good point. Paul: Uhhhh, no. Look, Arnie's never been an asset to us in the past. but now he's all " I know everything and I'm jumping to conclusions. Bullshit! Soap: It's Vernette's call. Besides the more time we spend chatting the more of a chance Eugene has of blowing up another ship. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 03:01 PM Vernette began to think. Vernette: He might detour, but he will eventually go to kill Korman. I am only interested in sending this thing back to the ashes it was spawned from. To that end...we should make our way to the Dead Ringer. Eugene is resourceful. Waiting for him to strike is a dumb idea. We need to make a move. Vernette grinned. Vernette: We should "remove" Kirk Korman from the picture. With no target to kill...Eugene will have only a handful of decisions. Coming back here is one of them. We should kidnap Kirk, hide him, and then bait Eugene into one of our little traps. Killer 2 02-15-2010 03:05 PM 411 longsword appered 14 kelometeres out off jupiters orbit 411:holy shit that was close! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 03:23 PM Delta walked down to the hanger bay. Tyber: Where are you going? Delta: To recover Slade's AI chip. Tyber: You have to watch the ship! You're in charge for now! Delta: damn...your right...damn...just when I thought I escaped the confines of command. Delta shrugged and walked to the bridge. kenshin 02-15-2010 04:00 PM shuya sliced into lance's cryopod. "i need allies to brng down delta!!" NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:10 PM Delta walked onto the bridge and looked around. He sat down in the command seat and put Tyber's AI chip into the terminal next to him. Tyber: Well...not much to do other then sit and wait for something to happen. Delta: Max left the Slade AI in the cryo lab. We can go back and get it later. To be honest...it's kinda odd sitting here. Tyber: Well...to be fair...you do have more experience then everyone else... kenshin 02-15-2010 04:12 PM lance stepped out of the torn cryopod. coughing the nutrients and mucus from his lungs. shuya smiled "welcome back." he laughed (i edited my last post) Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:14 PM 411 lookd out around him 411:nothing but jupiter out here... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:14 PM (k. I don't have much to post so keep going) Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:15 PM 411 plotted another random course kenshin 02-15-2010 04:17 PM lance looked at shuya. "why are you here?" he asked shuya laughed "to free you. obviusly noone else is going to." he replied lance stared ahrd at shuya.. "no seriousy why?" lance asked again "to help me kill delta." he stated. "no." lance answered Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:18 PM 411s longsword arrived at a random planet, a small one he landed and stepped out and looked around, he saw somthign that looked like a farm in the distace, he walked towards it NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:25 PM Delta sighed. He leaned back. Delta: Whats our status? Office: Engines working at 97% efficiancy. Repairs to the hanger bay are unserway. Sickbay reports that Hayes condition is unchanged. Delta: Next time say nothing... kenshin 02-15-2010 04:26 PM shuya raised his sword at lance "no? your telling me no. haha, like lyons before you i hold leverage." he said inching the blade closer to lance "well at this point i dont care. kill me. i'm not helping you or anyone anymore. put me out of my misery." lance said raing his arms "fine." shuya smiled as he raised his sword and slashed down at lance Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:29 PM 411 reached the farm, he saw it was part of a community 411:strange this planet is lightyears away from UNSC or loyalist space.. 411 walked towards what looked like a townhall made from ship parts NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:34 PM Officer: Wait a second...I am getting some strange readings from Cryo tube L-06318. Delta: Lance? What kind of readings? Office: None...the cryo cycle has stopped responding. Delta grabbed Tyber's AI chip and hopped to his feet. Delta: Damn it! Someone could be busting him out. Tye...where is Max? Tyber: Still sleeping in her room. kenshin 02-15-2010 04:34 PM the blade hit lances shoulder but went cold and dull. not doing more damage than just knocking the wind out of lance. "what the hell?" both of the men asked "my....my blade wont kill you. it wont hurt you............its chosen you?" shuya said with disbelief as he shook the sword. almost talking to it. "no......i'm your master.....you cant do this to me!!!" he yelled at the blade as his hand turned and the sword flared to life and inched closer to his neck. "no!!!" shuya yelled the noble e 02-15-2010 04:47 PM (well i dont know what to post my post have been kinda of random) Jack:well im full Dean:same Roger:enough smoothies lets just stare at the coast Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:51 PM 411 walked into tje town hall he was approached by a preson in an admiral uniform man:who are you 411:im sombody looking for a new life the man extended his hand man:im preston j. cole, you found the righ tplace cubanpete24 02-15-2010 04:55 PM Kirk sat in his office, pondering. He looked at his pistol, with the engraving Always have a Clone when they're involved. on the slide. He sighed. Kirk: I suppose Eugene is the "they're" in this case. He got up and walked to his terminal. Kirk: Lieutenant Edgar. Officer: Yes? Kirk: Set up a comm line to Director Vernette. Officer: But didn't he just shoot you...in the shoulder a while ago? Kirk: The enemy of my enemy is my friend Lieutenant. Set up the comm line. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:55 PM (Cole is dead) kenshin 02-15-2010 04:58 PM shuya's blade plunged across his neck severing his head. and he fell flat on his chest dropping the sword a few feet away. "shit.....that was.........what the hell just happened?" lance asked as he picked up a uniform on the floor and put it on. he looked at the sword and saw it still glowing. "he said it chose me?" he picked up the sword and felt nothing. "hmph...he was just crazy." he said as he pulled off shuya's sheath and put it on his back. "well now.....how do i get out of here?" NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:01 PM Vernette looked at RTJ. before he could speak, he was contacted by the bridge. Officer: Sir...incoming transmission for you from The Dead Ringer...Admiral Korman on the line. Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: Kinda spooky...just as we are planning to kidnap him...he calls us. Let's see how this plays out. Vernette accessed the comm from Kirk. Vernette: What do you want Kirk? Meanwhile: Delta jumped into a Pelican and flew down to the compound. The ran inside the base. Delta: Why am I always coming back here? As Delta ran he loaded his spikers. He heled on in each hand. He stood outside the main cryo chamber. He ran in and saw Lance standing over Shuya. He pointed his spikers at Lance. Delta: Whoa...do I even want to ask? kenshin 02-15-2010 05:05 PM "to tell you the truth. i dont know." lance said as he picked up slades ai chip. and pocketed it. "check the security tapes. and erase them. take the credit for shuya's death. and say you killed me. i'll disapear and never bother you guys again. and max well......i spose shes fine." lance stated NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:06 PM Delta laughed. Delta: You think I believe you? You expect me to just let you walk away. You wont bother us anymore. I don't like being lied to! the noble e 02-15-2010 05:07 PM Jack:man i miss the war Dean:i dont more time to relax.... kenshin 02-15-2010 05:07 PM "i havent lied." lance said "look at the tapes." NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:11 PM Delta: Hmmm...you haven't lied? -You sided with Shuya and Falcon Claw. -You tried to kill Vernette. -You lied to Max about your reasoning...a rather poorly thought out lie. Delta: What am I supposed to tell Vernette? That I let you go? That I killed you? You want me to lie to Vernette? He will want to see the security footage! Your not getting out of this! Unlike you...I actually am loyal to Vernette. Your a treacherous swine! I do not, and will not lie, especially to Vernette! Killer 2 02-15-2010 05:12 PM 411 shook coles hand 411:nice to meet you colr.. but arnt you dead? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:14 PM Kirk: It's not what I want, it's what we want. It doesn't take a genius to figure out Eugene wants to kill me. Your familiar with my quote correct? "Always have a clone when they're involved" There have been variations of said quote, but it's the same basic principle kenshin 02-15-2010 05:14 PM "i did that to keep everyone on the cloak and dagger alive. youd do this same if you had no other options!!" lance yelled "it was vernette or the entire ship. i chose the only viable option. i knew he would survive. i could have shot him in the head i could have made a killing blow. but every shot i made was nonlethal. you dont believe me? gun me down right here. i wont fight back." lance said holding out his arms NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:20 PM Delta: Even after Lyons was dead...you still were still inclined to kill Vernette. The threat had passed. There were many occasions you could have warned either me or Vernette about what was going to transpire. You didn't. Lyons was easily killed, Falcon Claw was dealt with. Delta took aim. Delta: It's not secret you hate Vernette. You could have killed Lyons, you could have done anything besides helping him. You didn't! Every bone in my body is telling me to put you down like a rabid animal. But I won't. That is Vernette's decision. He gave you your life...its his to take away. Meanwhile: Vernette: I am not interested in saving you Kirk...where did you get that idea? kenshin 02-15-2010 05:24 PM "then take my life. go ahead. vernette wont mind. you know that, you wont shoot me. and if you do you wont kill me. so prove me wrong. you have the clearance." lance said looking delta in the eye cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:26 PM Kirk: Who said you were saving me? Ok, you don't want to capture Eugene at my expense, Alrighty then. Chow Vernette NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:32 PM Vernette: Chow Kirk. Vernette closed the comm. Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: That S.O.B. is trying to use me. I don't like being used. We do this my way...he gets no input! Meanwhile: Delta grinned. Delta: It's not my decision. It's Vernette's decision. Delta glared at Lance. Delta: First thing is first...put the sword on the ground...hurry up...drop it! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:33 PM lance walked away from delta and shethed the sword. "good bye delta. " cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:34 PM (Do you mind if I rp as one of Vernette's officers for a couple posts?) NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:35 PM (Sure, go ahead) Delta: Your not going anywhere! Delta holstered his spikers and drew his hammer. He slammed Lance into a wall. Delta: Right now...Vernette wants you alive because you have some value...as a trophy. If you leave this place, you become a a fugitive...a criminal. I can kill criminals. cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:38 PM Officer: Director Vernette! James has set up a contacted us, he wants to talk to you! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:39 PM Vernette: You mean...Admiral Forkes? He wants to talk to me? Does he want to meet or would a comm line suffice? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:40 PM Officer: Well it's urgent I guess, he's on the comm terminal NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:40 PM Vernette walked over to the comm terminal and reactivated it. Vernette: I am busy James...What is it? Killer 2 02-15-2010 05:40 PM cole:..and thats why in alive 411:brilliant tactical display! cole:yes, indeed cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:42 PM James: Alright then, first off, my AI has been nabbed for the second time Secondly, TELL OTTO TO STOP BRINGING BACK THE FUCKING DEAD! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:43 PM lance's bade slashed delta's hammer in half. "let it go delta." lance said NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:45 PM Vernette: Look Pachino...you don't need to yell! For your information...Otto is dead. Aren't these things supposed to have anti-theft on them or something? Secondly...who would steal your AI? Meanwhile: Delta: Let it go? Pfft! Delta grabbed Laces forearm and raised him into the air. he kicked Lance across the room. Delta: I am very difficult to move and I am very unreasonable! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:49 PM "delta i'm done fighting. kill me and be done with it." lance said sheathing te sword. "i'm not waiting for vernette, stop biding yer time and do it." lance said as he walked towards the exit NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:51 PM Delta: Your a coward...you are afraid. You just want to walk away, and cower in some hole for the rest of your life. You have extraordinary abilities...yet you would rather dwindle them away while you drown in a pool of your own self pity! the noble e 02-15-2010 05:56 PM jack was being lazy so he fell asleep Dean:what a lazy ass kenshin 02-15-2010 05:57 PM "i'm stuck in a prison if vernette gets to me. death sounds like a nice reprieve. but i can finnally be free if i get out of here. call me a coward call me whatever you want. but it doesnt hide the fact we both know. i've lived my life in war. and its been nothing good. i lost max, my father, my humanity and my freedom. self pity? no i aint gonna do that. i'm just gonna find me a nice house, a small town and maybe a girl. something i can forget the past with." lance said as he kept walking NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:03 PM Delta sighed. Delta: You are running from your past Lance. That never works. It will catch up to you in some fashion. Sooner or later...you will be dragged right back in. Delta paused. Delta: My life has been lived in war as well. I have lost everything! Hell...I may even lose my home world when this war is said and done. I do not run from that fact though. I have had my fair share of tribulations but I got through them. Delta paused again. Delta: I guess I will let you leave. I will explain this to Vernette...I may get blasted but...I will live. Delta walked towards Lance and extended his hand to shake Lance's hand. Delta: Although my respect for you has dwindled to an almost non-existent level...I can still understand what you want. kenshin 02-15-2010 06:06 PM lance handed delta the sword. "i'll see ya delta. tell max i said hi." he said as he walked away NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:10 PM Delta turned around and looked at Shuya's decapitated corpse. Delta: When on a quest for revenge...dig your grave first. Delta used his foot to turn Shuya's dead body over on its back. He picked up the body and threw it over his shoulder. He grabbed the head in his other hand. Delta: Vernette may want this back. Delta carried the corpse back to the Pelican. kenshin 02-15-2010 06:12 PM lance walked out of the facility and saw delta's pelican fly off. "i wonder where a good bar is?" he asked himslef as he found a small dirt road and walked down it Killer 2 02-15-2010 06:13 PM 411:so, what do we do around here cole:help eachother NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:17 PM Delta's Pelican landed in the Cloak and Dagger. He dragged Shuya's corpse out of the Pelican and brought it to the Cybernetics Lab. Delta: Alright Shuya...stay put and don't run off! The corpse was silent. Delta laughed as he walked out of the Lab. Killer 2 02-15-2010 09:57 PM max was walking and saw delta mx:finnally killed him eh? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:01 PM Delta: I didn't...he kinda killed himself...I got to watch him cut his own head off. I'm serious. I feel kind of ripped off. I wanted to kill him... Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:02 PM max:whered you find him? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 10:04 PM James: Well I"m hearing rumors....about a certain "Eugene Korman" off killing some UNSC officials, now this would still bother me if it was any other soldier killing UNSC officials but, but what makes Eugene Korman so special is that My AI is Eugene24 NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:07 PM Delta: He freed Lance from Cryo Prison then cut his own head off. I got into a very...one sided fight with Lance. I eventually just let him go. He took Slade with him and just walked off into the middle of nowhere. He told me to say say something to you. Oh yeah...he told me to say hi! Meanwhile: Vernette: Its the same person! Your AI is based of the psycho that's killing everyone. If you want...I can look for Eugene24 for you. I think I may know who has him. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:18 PM max:he has nerve.... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:21 PM Delta: Oh well...doesn't matter. If we need to find him again...we can. Delta looked back at Shuya. He circled the table that the torso was laying on. Delta: it seems a lot of weird shit is cropping up lately. Did you hear about that one guy? His name was 411? Keeping all these weirdos under control has landed me some serious respect. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:23 PM max:shella told me he is herbrother NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:25 PM Delta: Its weird. I enjoyed it when things were simpler. The only way to ensure someone is dead is to eat them. Unless you eat them...they can be brought back to life as some husk, machine, or clone...it makes me mad. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:28 PM max:what about beating them into a pulp, ripping the apart and heating those peices into there gaz form? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 10:29 PM James; That's what I'm saying! I think Eugene has my AI Likewise, My men are searching for him as we speak. I just though you should know, after some research on Eugene I heard he was one of your soldier. Like I said, just thought you should know. James cut the comm line. KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 10:32 PM Well shit im bored im gonna snoop on purpose this time click click (yay) Hmm Vernette's secret gadgets Cool a laser that slices through metal that kills well i guess thats not surprising Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:38 PM max:uhh delta do i have permisson to leave the ship? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:41 PM Delta shrugged. Delta: Eating them is easier! As for leaving the ship...why do you want to anyways? Meanwhile: Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: Why would EUgene have the AI? I would assume Kirk would have it. It would make sense. Kirk wanted to "clear the air" with his son. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:43 PM max looked from left to right max:justice.... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:44 PM Delta: Justice? Elaborate! Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:46 PM max:family justice... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:48 PM Delta crossed his arms and leaned on the wall. Delta: Look Max...with Vernette busy looking for Eugene Korman and Hayes in the medical Bay...I am in charge. I need more information then that. Talk to me Max...the more I know...the more inclined I would be to help you. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:50 PM max:going after somthing that rymes with dance NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:52 PM Delta: No. Lance is dangerous. He would break you in half. I cannot let you do that. It is too dangerous. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:57 PM max:your just afraid lance and i will run away toghether.. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:00 PM Delta: Why would I be afraid of that? KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:14 PM eh whatever im very hungry exits room and walks to the cafeteria kenshin 02-15-2010 11:31 PM lance stepped into the bar and the bartender greeted him "whats yer poison stranger?" he said as he picked up a glass "anything with ice." lance said as he sat at the bar. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:34 PM (Where is killer?) kenshin 02-15-2010 11:35 PM (killer!!!!)

KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 12:01 AM (i gtg) thanks Well im on my way to get something to eat kenshin 02-16-2010 12:03 AM lance met the bartenders friend later behind the bar. (you can be the man if you want nc so we can keep posting) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:07 AM The man looked at Lance. Man: You must be Lance. My name is Clark. I see you have decided to lend a hand. (Post in the shout box what we are killing) kenshin 02-16-2010 12:12 AM "yea cut the crap whats the intel?" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:13 AM Clark: Something simple. I need you to ride shotgun on a little shipment. Still interested? kenshin 02-16-2010 12:14 AM "who am i protecting it from?" lance asked (it up 2 u) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:15 AM Clark: ONI. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:17 AM "musta pissed off a hornets nest. allright, wheres my weapon and ride?" lance asked with a smile NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:21 AM Clark: You bet. One of their experimental drive cores. Classified. I have few a few people. Everything you need in terms of equipment in in the locker behind you. Your ride, and the convoy, will be outside in 15 minutes. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:23 AM "you'll be glad you have me if the shit hits the fan." lance said as he pulled out an assualt rifle and an automag. grabbed a bag of explosives. "meet ya in the car." he said as he walked out to the convoy NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:24 AM Clark: Shit will hit the fan. Expect it. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:25 AM lance smiled not the peaceful life i wasexpecting but it'll work till i can get it. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:30 AM Clark got into the driver seat. He started the car and began to drive. Clark: So...whats your story? Whats your background? kenshin 02-16-2010 12:35 AM "names lance, i know how to use a gun. the rest will be explained when the bullets start flyin'" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:40 AM Clark: Fair enough. Like I said, my name is Clark, I know the ins and outs of the UNSC. I worked for ONI. I didn't like the direction it took. I quit. Meanwhile: Delta walked back to Max. Delta: Tina is doing weird stuff lately. I am not used to her looking like a decent person with dignity. In any case Max...I cannot let you leave the ship to go and chase after Lance. You need a better reason then revenge to convince me. This is my call. I'm sorry...but I do not want to be responsible if something happens to you. I couldn't live with that. Remember Max...when embarking on revenge...dig your own grave first. It will always destroy you. Killer 2 02-16-2010 07:28 AM max:ok delta max walks back towwatds her room kenshin 02-16-2010 01:09 PM lance nearly fell out of his seat when the truck jumped over a large bump in the dirt road. "i dont see oni. you sure they gonna try to stop us?" lance asked NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:19 PM Clark: I'm sure...ONI is good at not being seen until the last sec- A large explosion rang out, tipping Lace's and Clarks truck. A black scorpion tank with the ONI insignia on it rolled out and blocked the road. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:28 PM lance stepped out of the overturned truck wiping the blood off of his already healing wounds. and pulled clark out of the truck "show time!" lance said as he fired his rifle at the tank gunner NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:38 PM Clark: Wasn't expecting this kind of force. However, I still think ONI can do better. Keep your eyes peeled for any marines. I will go and ensure that the drive core is intact. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:42 PM lance nodded as he flanked the tank and took cover in a small depression. he smiled as the tank turned to line up a shot with lance and rolled over the anti tank mine he set up. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:45 PM Clark: Nice going kid. With that tank out of the way, we won't have to worry about the core being destroyed. Clark fired his SMG from behind cover. Clark: Just keep those ONI pricks off of me. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:50 PM lance stood up and fired at the flanking marines and drew hundreds of rounds back. "i got three moving to your right i'll do my best to distract them but i got my hands full." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:52 PM Clark: ONI is really coming down hard. Alright...I will try and make the move. They won't dare shoot at me if I am near the core. Its too valuable. Clark jumped from cover to cover. He fired his SMG in small busts. He took a round in the leg. Clark: I have been hit. its not bad though...I'm still on the move. KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 02:56 PM tina goes to the ships cafeteria and stuffs her face(...) kenshin 02-16-2010 02:57 PM an explosion took four of the men out and lance mowed down 2 others while taking a few rounds to the chest. "argh!" lance grunted as he spun and emptied the last of his clip into the hiding marine heal faster dammit lance thought as he ran to cover as a marine fired a rocket launcher in lance's direction. blood dribbling out of the fast healing bullet holes NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:00 PM Clark: We are losing people fast Lance! Our best chance is to make it to the truck carrying the drive core and to just speed our way out of here! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:06 PM lance took a round to the throat and couldnt replie. and ran towards clark motioning for him to go. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:11 PM Clark: Shit... Clark ran to the truck. He jumped into the drivers seat and tried to start the truck. Clark: Come on you fucker start! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:21 PM lance jumped into the passenger seat of the truck clutching at his healing neck and rasping "drive" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:22 PM Clark flood the pedal, crashing through ONI Warthogs. He looked over at lance. Clark: You are looking like real shit right now! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:30 PM "i'll be fine." lance said with his voice near normal as he fired his rifle at some pursuing warthogs NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:32 PM Clark: How the fuck do you heal like that? kenshin 02-16-2010 03:36 PM "a gift." lance reloaded his rifle and looked back "we're losing them." lance said with a sigh of relief NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:40 PM Clark: I am surprised at you. You have not asked a single question yet. What was my involvement with ONI? Why am I stealing the drive core? You helped me. You deserve answers. Ask anything you wish. kenshin 02-16-2010 03:46 PM "tell me whats happening then, why we transporting this? why is oni after us and who the hell are you really?" lance asked wiping the blood off his neck and clothes NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:03 PM Clark: Ill start from the beginning. My name is Doctor Clark Novak. I have been all around the UNSC...most notably HIGHCOM and then ONI. I was a cybernetics consultant before I took service aboard a ship named The Dreadhawk under the command of one Fleet Admiral Preston Vernette. I was tasked is doing some rather...unusual work. Nothing pleasant. I was part of a team of 12 scientists; 4 cyberneticists, including myself, and 8 surgeons of varying specialties. We were kept in the dark mostly, working on varying technology and studying varying lifeforms...primarily the Brutes. I soon found out why. Vernette was trying to use our SPARTAN program on one of those damned Brutes. I voiced my objections and was met with a lot of hostility. I decided to finish my work then get the fuck out of there. Vernette knew people had issues on this so nobody worked together, everyone was compartmentalized so nobody could share any information with anyone else. My responsibility was the weapon designs. Vernette created a Brute...using a live specimen...who actually was excited about the procedure. Nobody knew his name...but he was code named SUBJECT Delta. We finished him, and he eventually enetered combat. I didn't care for it. I left the team and joined ONI, in an attempt to forget about that thing and my involvement in it. Clark: I joined ONI's special tasks and internal affairs division known as Section 0. I was posted on a classified ship known as The Cloak and Dagger. Things were going good...until Director Kavanagh was killed by the Covenant. A week later...The newly promoted Fleet Admiral James Forkes...appoints the now Admiral Preston Vernette to Director of Section 0. It's impossible to run... Clark: I decided to stay with Section 0...and I hated it. I left the UNSC and decided to go rogue. Before I left...I caught wind of a rather interesting invention...the Tantalus Drive Core...the thing in the back of this truck. Faster then the current drive cores, twice as small, and built completely from re-purposed Covenant technology. Shall I continue? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:41 PM "oh please do." lance said with growing interest NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:46 PM Clark: ONI wants it back for their own persona use...but I think these should be deployed across the fleet. I plan to retrofit a UNSC Frigate with it, test it, then inform the rest of the UNSC about it. ONI has its secrets, they need to start answering for them. So...are you still interested? If not...I can drop you off right here and we can go our separate ways. kenshin 02-16-2010 04:50 PM "let me fill you in on something. preston vernette turned me into a spartan made me kill my father, i dated his daughter, i died he revivied me amde me assisnate hundreds of people, gave me the ability to heal like this and then threw me in his personal hell. i am a fugitive." lance took a deep breath as he pulled out a bullet from his shoulder. "i'm in. i have nowhere else to go. you have my help." lance stated NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:52 PM Clark: Wow...that made my story look boring...you dated his daughter? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:53 PM "yes, and developed a friendship with delta." lance added NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:54 PM Clark: He wasn't designed to have friends... cubanpete24 02-16-2010 04:55 PM Eugene insert Eugene24 into the pelican's holo-disk slot. Eugene24: INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALER- Damn it. Doug24: Sup. Eugene24: Oh hey Doug, how's life Doug24: Been better. Eugene24: Good....Good. Eugene: I'm growing impatient. Eugene24: Oh YOUR growing impatient, well let me tell you this, I'm not a fan of being kidnapped. Now who are you? DOn't speak Kirk Korman? No he already made amends Preston Vernette? No, he wouldn't just steal me like that. Shella Lenner? No her voice is more masculine Eugene Korman? Rumors of you being alive, but you were cremated, must ask Are you Eugene Korman? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:56 PM lance laughed. "and i was designed to be vernettes plaything. things change." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:58 PM Clark: Well...I can make 100 jokes...but I wont... kenshin 02-16-2010 04:59 PM slade apeared with a smile "i will make the joke but a different time. apperently according to my scans we have longswords inbound." "shit." lance said NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:01 PM Clark: That has ONI written all over it! Time to speed things up! Clark floored the accelerator. Meanwhile: Vernette: Alright RTJ...lets get moving. Lets get to The Dead Ringer. kenshin 02-16-2010 05:03 PM lance looked grabbed his seat and scanned the air. "how far are we from our destination?" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:05 PM Clark: About 10 miles... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:06 PM "what we have interms of heavy weapons here?" lance asks NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:10 PM Clark: Well...check the back of the truck...I think I saw a SPARTAN Laser back there... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:12 PM "well, well, this should be fun. firing a time delayed weapon from the back of a moving truck at the worlds best combat ship." lance laughed as he shouldered the weapon and waited for the longsword. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:15 PM Clark: I will try and keep the truck steady... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:16 PM lance saw the longsword make its aproach. "come on fucker line up the shot." he said as he aimed the gun slightly ahead of the longsword. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:17 PM Clark: Take the damn shot! kenshin 02-16-2010 05:19 PM "got ya" lance whispered as the spartan laser slammed the longsword head on and knokced it out of the sky NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:21 PM Clark: Well...we are in the clear for now...lets hope we can make it... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:24 PM lance laughed as he sat down. "i hope it lasts." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:36 PM Clark: In any case Lance...you have proven yourself quite useful. Tell me...you said you were a fugitive. Why is that? What did you do? kenshin 02-16-2010 05:39 PM "attempted assisnation of preston vernette." lance said with a stern look NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:41 PM Clark: You're a fugitive...so I assume you failed. kenshin 02-16-2010 05:42 PM "i didnt try. there were circumstances that forced me into that situation. i didnt kill him of my own will." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:47 PM Clark: Yeah...right...sure...who doesn't want to kill that guy! He meddles in other peoples business and kills you when you try to meddle in his business. The king of double standards! kenshin 02-16-2010 05:49 PM "hey your looking at the man who vernette fears." lance smiled NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:57 PM Clark: Really? He fears you? Does he fear you? Clark shrugged. Clark: Perhaps he does...but if he feared you, he would have killed you. You said you died and he revived you. Why would he do that for someone he fears? would it not make more sense to leave you dead? I don't think he fears you...as much as he needs you for something...you just don't know it yet. Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:15 PM 2 more longswords decended near the truck and soon a third without an ONI stampped on them fell in behind the other 2 NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:17 PM Clark: We have more company Lance...take them out! Meanwhile: Delta: Sorry Max...you ain't leaving this ship for any reason...especially not for revenge. Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:18 PM max:ok *meanwhile* the two ONI longswords fired on the truck, but one got shot apart by the third NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:19 PM Clark: Interesting...we have three longswords...one of them SEEMS to be helping us...at this point though I say don;t trust anyone in a jet! Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:20 PM the other ONI longsword pulled a U turna an started shooting at the thrid, but wa out manuvered and gt shot down aswell NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:26 PM Clark: Well...now to see if number 3 kills us... Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:28 PM the longsword continued circling above the truck 8one hour previous8 411:you people make no sense! person:im saying, help me, i need extra clothes ofr a date 411:go buy some! person:we dont use currency! 411:fuck this palce! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 08:32 PM Delta: Anyways Max...I am free for the next little while...you got any plans? Killer 2 02-16-2010 08:52 PM max:im not going on a date! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 09:13 PM Delta laughed. Delta: Did I say that? I don't think I did! Why would you assume that? Killer 2 02-16-2010 09:42 PM max:that is a popular pickup line! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 09:46 PM Delta: Go figure. Your not my type anyways... Killer 2 02-16-2010 09:50 PM max:but ywea i have no plans Grunt Hive Mind 02-16-2010 09:54 PM Slomyg donned a cape and walked to his hanger. Might as well save some lives. I AM a doctor after all. Slomyg stepped into his ship. Now what is an interesting place to go to....earth, nah.... Slomyges finger drifted along a chart displaying all of the planets. Jupiter would be a nice change of pace... there are some small setelments and not very many good doctors...Ah, Why not. Slomyges small ship took off containing all needed for healing. Plus some of his own ¨Unique¨ equipment. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:00 PM Delta: Well...its up to you...I cannot really think of much to do...kinda dumb when you think about it. Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:16 PM max:i cant do anything.. KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 10:19 PM Mess hall dude:Damn lady where do you put all that food you ate NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:19 PM Delta: Firing range is out of the question. You can't leave the ship. Delta laughed. Delta: You have condemned yourself to boredom Max. Good work. Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:26 PM max:and i cant use unsc equipment so no solitare using UNSC cards... NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:34 PM Delta: Screw it...lets hit the firing range...Vernette doesn't need to know...just don't get me in trouble! kenshin 02-16-2010 10:37 PM lace aimed the spartan laser at one of the longswords. "sorry it was malfunctioning. how old is this thing?" lance asked as the laser fired NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:40 PM Delta looked at max. Before she could give her response, he was interrupted over the comm. Officer: hey Delta...your needed on the bridge. Quickly... Delta: I am on my way. Delta looked at Max. Delta: lets go see whats going on. Meanwhile: Clark: Its seen some tough times... Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:41 PM the non ONI longsword dodged the shot over radio:truck, do not fire, repeat do NOT fire, we are an escort over kenshin 02-16-2010 10:42 PM lance aimed at the longsword "i think their bullshitting us." lance said sternly NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:47 PM Clark: I can't say...this seems suspect. Keep the trigger on them...we will let them tag along for now. Its not like if they find where I am hiding the frigate they will be able to stop us. We can launch that ship and speed away with the drive core. Keep an eye on them. Blast em if you think its necessary. Meanwhile: Delta walked onto the bridge. Delta: What is it? Officer: Well...three of our longsword have been shot down over Northern Canada. Delta: By who? Officer: You don't know...do you? Delta: No... Officer: Ohhh...damn...well...in short...ONI is trying to recover a valuable piece of equipment stolen by terrorists. We sent a team to intercept the equipment and they failed to recover it. Your AI should know the details. Delta: What are we trying to recover? Officer: A new prototype drive core. its called The Tantalus Drive Core. Delta: Never mind...I know exactly whats going on now. I have been briefed on the current status of Project Tantalus. I am aware it has been stolen. It must be recovered at all costs. Prepare more teams to intercept. kenshin 02-16-2010 10:52 PM lance nodded. and slade apeared next to the men "5 teams odst's have been dispatched from the cloak and dagger to intercept our course." lance's jaw dropped "no way." lance said with disbelief "its true unless we can get out of sight of the ship we will be intercepted inaproximetly 15 minutes" slade replied NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:55 PM Officer: We have dispatched more teams to try and cut them off in Pelicans. Delta: Once the Tantalus has been recovered, it is to be brought back to the Cloak and Dagger for immediate installation. Inform those ODSTs that the Tantalus must be recovered, no damage is to come to it! Meanwhile: Clark: Vernette is involved...he wants his drive core back... kenshin 02-16-2010 11:01 PM "i cant seem to escape him. we gotta get out of here and make them lose our trail else we get stuck between a rock and vernette." lance said still aiming at the longswords slade nodded his head. "i've exacuted a worm virus that i place that temporarily knocks the communications with all out going aircraft. we have half an hour. we can either lose them or do our best to engage them. its your choice." lance shook his head. "we gotta lose them we cant fight off 50 odsts, at l;east in a half hour." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:06 PM Clark: We are almost in the green zone. Another mile and we should be safe! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:06 PM "shit." lance saw one of the pelicans close in Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:11 PM longsword:ive got you covered, just get he packdge to the shp! the longsword started chasing the pelicans kenshin 02-16-2010 11:12 PM lance looked at clark "i dont know what to think, just drive." Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:13 PM the long sword opened fire on the pelican NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:16 PM Clark: That's what I'm doing! Meanwhile: One of the ODST teams contacted the Cloak and Dagger. ODST: Cloak and Dagger...we are under fire from an unmarked Longsword! Delta: Can you evade? ODST: Negative! Delta began to think. Delta: How sensitive are the targeting sensors on this ship? Tactical Officer: Pretty sensitive... Delta: Can we hit a speeding Longsword? Tactical Officer: From orbit...perhaps...in ELO...absolutely! Delta: Take the ship into ELO! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:18 PM lance looked at clark 'god dammit cant this thing go faster?!" Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:19 PM the pelican exploded and the long sword continued heading for the green zone NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:21 PM Officer: ELO achieved...we have entered the lower atmosphere. Delta: Find the rogue Longsword...swat it from the sky with Archers. Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:30 PM the long sword plumeted o the ground as archers hit theengines NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:37 PM Officer: The Longsword is down! Delta: Tell the remaining Pelicans to focus on recovering the Tantalus Drive Core! Delta looked over at Max. Delta: This reminds me of the good old days...when instead of doing the killing myself...I ordered my crew to do it for me! Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:40 PM max:alot funer pulling the trigger yourself *meanwhile* 411 stepped out of the downed longsword and headed for te green zone (keep your nipple on ill xplain..) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:43 PM Delta: I agree...that's why I don't miss this kind of combat. Its more personal killing someone with your bare hands. Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:45 PM max:mmhmmmm... god im bored NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:48 PM Delta: Look...I'll tell you what...if the need arises for me to get off my ass and actually do something...I will take you with me, we can go and kick some ass like old times? Is that fair enough? Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:52 PM max:ye sir! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:55 PM "how much longer?" lance asked nervously NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:56 PM Delta laughed. Delta: its a cold day in hell when a human calls a Brute sir. Meanwhile: Clark: See that mountain range up ahead? There is a tunnel leading to an underground highway. If we get in there...we are same from any air attacks! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:57 PM lance saw the mountain tunnel was no more than a quarter mile away (longest mile ever) Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:58 PM 411 started running towards te "green zone" NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:02 AM Clark: I can smell safety from here! The truck entered the tunnel and drove underground. Clark: Safe...at last. Clark slowed the truck down. Clark: Now they need to chase us on the ground...their ships are useless. I am curious though...who was that trying to help us? kenshin 02-17-2010 12:03 AM "beats me. lets not question it. we gotta get this thing on the move. i can handle an ground resistance we encounter." lance said as he slung his rifle on his back Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:06 AM 411 entered the tujnnel, seeing the truck in the distance 411:hey wait up! kenshin 02-17-2010 12:07 AM lance looked at 411 and leveled his rifle squeezing off a burst above his head. "on the ground!!" lance yelled Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:09 AM 411 lyed down on the ground, hands on his head NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:10 AM Clark: That was easy... kenshin 02-17-2010 12:10 AM (btw what is 411?) lance stpped on 411's back and pointed the rifle at his head "who are you?" Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:12 AM (augment) 411:longsword! i helped you, kowalski hired me! kenshin 02-17-2010 12:13 AM "who's kowalski?" lance yelled picking up 411 by the neck and slamming him in the wall "why should we trust you?" Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:15 AM 411 looked at clarc 411:kowaski said he was working ith you NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:18 AM (Do I know Kowalski?) Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:20 AM (yesh) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:23 AM Clark: Its alright Lance...hes good. Let him go. Tell me...411 was it? How do you know Kowalski? Meanwhile: Officer: The ODST teams report that the Drive Core has been taken underground. Delta: Deploy some Warthogs for immediate use! Delta looked at Max. Delta: Something tells me I may have to get off my ass sooner or later and go down there personally. Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:25 AM 411:i met him on a rock under the "equal" goverment of cole NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:36 AM Clark: Cole? He ain't getting shit! The Tantalus Drive Core is mine! Killer 2 02-17-2010 08:57 AM 411:i know, kowaski wanted off that rock, so i brought him in my longsword but he died in the crash kenshin 02-17-2010 10:29 AM lance looked at the entrance and rigged it to explode if anything passed it "i hate to cut your conversation short, but its only a matter of time before we have warthogs on our ass." NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:46 PM Clark: Right...let's keep going. Everyone back In the truck. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:06 PM Soap: Well Kirk already "cleared air" remember the report Admiral Forkes filed saying Kirk stole his AI then brought it back *meanwhile* Eugene24: Ok, so what do you want Chubby-Cheeks Eugene: There are people out there who need to be brought to justice. And it's my duty to kill them before they get out of hand. Eugene24: Oh really? Well Let me just ellaborate. Says here you had a list, a "Grocery List" of people on it, Most of them being dead to start with, can you confirm this, Doug24? Doug24: Ummmmmm maybe. Eugene24: I'll take this as a yes. Show me the list Eugene. Eugene: Hell no! Eugene24: You got me for answers, and answers are what I'll give you. Eugene reluctantly pulled out a folded up piece of paper and dropped it on the dashboard of the pelican. Eugene24: Alrighty, so this....List, it contains people you have, and want to kill. Ned and Dennis Had it coming. Otto........Otto Goldberg. Yes I know him. What did he do? Bring Ned back to life? Wait... Eugene: He brought me back. Eugene24: Brought you back? to life? Eugene: So-so, it was an....unholy project. so to speak. Eugene24: *sigh* Ok Eugene, your motives have gone from unclear to just plain ridiculous! It would actually be more logical to keep him alive! He's like...one of the only people to perfect bringing back the dead! Eugene: Look at you talk! You would've done the same! Eugene24: Oh really? I am you, and so far...I don't have any motives to kill anyone. My only thought of violence is socking Shella Lenner in the face but....I'm past that, after all. I was dead. Eugene: You don't know a thing about me. Eugene24 laughed. Eugene24: Either your stupid, or messed up in the head. March 15th, 2535 The date the covenant almost discovred Earth. Thanks to some Spartan named Griffy Fivoone Cheeky bastard thought he could get away with it if he told a small group of covenant where Earth was. A small town called New Jenkins NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:19 PM (Griffy? A Spartan named Griffy? LOL) Vernette: Well...Kirk is the next target...so...we are going to head off to The Dead Ringer...we are going to sneak on, stay hidden, and wait for Mr. Eugene Korman to pop up. When he appears...we we will take him out. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:29 PM (Notice the Fiv-o-one) Eugene24: A 16 year old child sweeps the floors of an underground shelter, 20 feet below the ground. then he hears the ground tremble with anger, followed by screaming and gunfire, The little boy stayed in fetal position in a corner of the shelter. After the gunfire ceased, The little 16 year old climbed vigorously out of the shelter, he looked over and saw cripsy black husks of what used to be people surrounding the manhole entrance to the shelter. He enters his house and sees his family, on the ground. Murdered. Eugene punched the wall of the pelican, making his knuckles bleed. Eugene: ENOUGH! He clenched his fists. Eugene: Griffy Fioone eh? Where is he. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:32 PM Vernette: Get your asses to the hanger bay. I will join you shortly. Vernette walked out of the armory. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:37 PM Arnie: Hey Vernette, I was thinkin, How about, we go along with the whole...kidnapping Kirk idea. after some thought, it ought to drive Eugene crazy! With noone to kill, He'll have nothing to do but come to us! NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:44 PM Vernette: Exactly what I was thinking...perhaps you do have a future in the military... cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:55 PM Arnie: I just want to take this sucker out. *meanwhile* Eugene24: I don't know, You'll have to look into the UNSC database. Eugene: Very well then, I'll wait. Till then, I think I owe Kirk a visit. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:57 PM Vernette: Alright...get to the hanger...I will be there in a few moments! cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:59 PM (By the by, I'm going to have Eugene show up late, like right after you kidnap Kirk) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:04 PM (Okie Dokie) Vernette walked out of the armory. He walked onto the bridge. Vernette: D, listen up. RTJ and I are going to go and pay Kirk Korman another courtesy call. However, we are going to capture him and bring him back here for...fun. Delta: Fun? Why don't you just kill the prick? Vernette: Tempting...but not necessary at this juncture. I need you to keep an eye on things here. If I understand correctly, you are currently chasing down Mr. Novak? Delta: Yes...we are hot on his trail. He has the Tantalus on the move...we are closing in on him! Vernette: Get that damn drive core back, kill with impunity! Delta: Will do! Vernette grabbed a shotgun from the Bridge weapons locker and headed to the hanger bay. Vernette: Alright MacTavish...is your team set? cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:20 PM Soap: Yep. Let's go NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:27 PM Vernette: Perfect. Vernette slung the shotgun's equipment strap around his shoulder. He checked the ammo capacity on his pistol. He walked into the Vulture and began the pre-ignition sequence. Vernette: Basically...how this is going to break down is I am going to get you guys on board The Dead Ringer undetected. Your job is to get Kirk and bring him back to The Vulture, unconscious if necessary. I hope you will do better here then you did in Brazil. I don't think The Dead Ringer crew will appreciate us stealing their CO. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:36 PM Soap: Alrighty the- wait a sec.... Soap grinned under his helmet Soap: Oh yes....PERFECT! Look, Vernette, if this Eugene character needs to think Kirk is dead, then I'm thinking, that We nab one of Kirk's clones from their cloning tubes, kshoot it a few times in the chest, then plop it over Kirk's desk, then tranq the real Kirk. This will ensure complete success! NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:43 PM Vernette: Not a bad idea... Vernette began to think. (Is Jermaine with us) cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:44 PM (No he's on the ship.) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:51 PM (Alright) Vernette: Listen up...cause I will only say this once. We are 5 minutes away from the Dead Ringer...so this plan needs to be fully understood the first time. We are going to split up. Jerome, take Arnie and paul. Find Admiral Korman and drag his sorry ass back to the Vulture. MacTavish...you and I are going to head to the cloning labs, grab a Kirk Korman off the shelf...shoot him a few times...then dump him in the hallways some where near the hanger...somewhere where Eugene will find him easily. We all meet back at the Vulture...and jet off! Clear? cubanpete24 02-17-2010 10:09 PM Kirk looked up from his terminal, He saw a counter he installed right above his space view window. 3 hours since last unexpected visit.. Kirk Shrugged as he then looked back onto his terminal. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:18 PM The Vulture dropped out of Slipspace near the Dead Ringer. Vernette activated the Stealth systems. Vernette: Lets hope the Stealth on this ship holds out long enough. One moment...I am going to try and open the hanger bay doors...without docking clearance... Killer 2 02-17-2010 10:19 PM 411:ok, lets go NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:24 PM Clark jumped back into the truck. Lance and 411 hopped into the back and the Truck continued to drive. Clark: So...whats your stake in this 411? Killer 2 02-17-2010 10:44 PM 411:i need resources NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:47 PM Clark: For what? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:01 PM 411:building, steel, titanium etc. etc. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:02 PM Clark: What are you building? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:04 PM 411:mobile base, nothing big NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:07 PM Clark: Whats this base for? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:10 PM 411:what are youig going to do with this driver core? where will it be at all times? you are asking questions that are unsafe for me NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:14 PM Clark: I plan to retrofit the drive core onto a stolen UNSC Frigate. Now...share some more information with me! Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:16 PM 411:fine, i plan to use the base as a weapons lab, armoury and outfit it with a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:28 PM Clark laughed. Clark: You know...why don't we join forces 411...combine our goals. Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:30 PM 411:i need a smaller more versitle ship, not a frigate NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:31 PM Clark: What would a small ship do against a ship like The Cloak and Dagger? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:34 PM 411:never sid im going up agaisnt vernette, but i will be glad to keep doing.. buisness with you, while pursuing seperate goals NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:38 PM Clark: If there is one thing in life that I have learned its this. Vernette goes after everyone. He is like a rabid animal, he will attack anyone he sees for no reason...because he cannot control himself! He is a fucking deranged madman! If he doesn't like the paint job on your ship, he will blow it up with no consequences! You may not have a problem with Vernette, but he will find one with you. I am warning you...that's all... Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:41 PM 411:can we continue working toghether? i need more than titanium and steel, i need a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive, and it seems you want a frigate, and will be using your specail drive.... NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:52 PM Clark: I have a frigate and a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive core. I have one on the Frigate. Once it is removed, I can give it to you...but I need something in return. Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:53 PM 411:such as? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:00 AM Clark: Well...I will admit...you look a bit...weird. But you also look like you can handle a physical confrontation. Am I correct? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:01 AM 411:yes,im faster and stronger NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:02 AM Clark: Well...ONI has a certain person in their ranks. Very big, very strong. Not a SPARTAN but very SPARTAN like. Think you could handle him? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:03 AM 411:potentally NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:05 AM Clark: What do you mean? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:07 AM 411:i need more information to make an acccurate simulation NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:09 AM Clark: This guy is 9'7", 2250 lbs, Body fat index of 1%, very sharp teeth. He is a Brute. Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:10 AM 411:delta? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:10 AM Clark: Have you met him? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:13 AM 411 nodded 411:i have run the simulation 999 times out of 1000 delta would beat we.. without his AI, with it? he would win 999999 out of 1000000 NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:17 AM Clark: Fuck... Clark began to think. Clark: Alright...never mind about that...wait...he has an AI? Vernette is very reckless.. Clark slowed the truck down in front of a large door. He stepped out of the truck and pressed a few buttons and the large door opened. He stepped back into the truck. Clark: Alright...just stick around and help out and we will call it even. You can have the Drive core. Killer 2 02-18-2010 08:58 AM 411:ok kenshin 02-18-2010 10:35 AM lance was lost in thought this is fucking great, i'm in another goddamn rebelion. this is just waht i needed to keep delta off my trail he thought sarcastically i cant seem to avoid trouble with vernette, this is the nail in the coffin for my execution. i just wanted a room, how'd i get dragged into--nevermind. goddamn, i wish max was here she would know what to do. wait, clark said vernette kept me alive for, a purpose? he put me in prison for a purpose. he might have expected shuya's jail break and wanted it. he might have me here to flush out a rebelion! lance chuckled even vernette isnt that smart. well i guess next i see delta i'm screwed. i just hop it goes fast. lance sighed cubanpete24 02-18-2010 05:26 PM Jermaine stood in the armory, looking on the workbench where his smg lay. He just stared at it. He took out a cigar and lit it. Memory Voice: Step any closer and I'll blow her motherfucking brains out! Jermaine dropped his cigar on the ground. He then fell to the floor. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:32 PM Vernette grinned. He watched as the hanger bay door opened. The Vulture landed inside. Vernette: Alright...you guys know the plan. MacTavish, you and I will get the clone, Arnie, Jerome and Paul, you guys get Korman. I want this done quickly, quietly, and professionally. Vernette stood up and chuckled. Vernette: I preach about being quiet...and I bring a shotgun on a stealth mission. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:36 PM lance saw the frigate being torn apart by hundreds of men. "oh shit. this aint a small operation." he said with disbelief NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:38 PM Clark: She WILL be a beauty! We renamed her to "Lady Liberty"...an homage to her mission. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:45 PM "ah shes a beauty." lance said with awe in his voice NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:48 PM Clark: The first mission is to destroy the ONI Shipyards at Mercury...the birthplace of The Cloak and Dagger. That is a very specialized yard...without it...The Cloak and Dagger goes without repairs until it is rebuilt. Then we deal with The Cloak and Dagger. Leave it to ONI to name a ship after treachery, secrecy, and murder. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:52 PM "yea matches the captain." he laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:57 PM Clark: Well...we are now rushed. I have everyone working on just getting this thing in the air. With ONI hot on our asses...we are quickly running out of time! I need you to ensure nothing that is affiliated with ONI gets into the hanger bay. Meanwhile: Delta was sitting on the bridge. Delta: Alright...enough of this...no more games. I am personally hitting the surface to get that damn drive core back and carry it back here if necessary! Delta looked at one of the officers. Delta: My standing order is this; if it isn't ONI...shoot it down. Clear? Officer: Yeah...yeah... Delta stormed off the bridge and made his way to the hanger bay. Grunt Hive Mind 02-18-2010 06:02 PM Slomyg descended to the planets surface near a small community he visited annualy. cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:07 PM Jerome, Arnie, and Paul hopped out of the pelican and walked down the halls to Kirk's office. *meanwhile* Kirk was sitting in his office, still looking at his terminal. Kirk looked at the security camera feed of of the hallway outside his office. He saw 3 ODST's exiting an elevator. He saw one ODST taking the helmet off One ODST, and holding it above his head. The One ODST was jumping up and down trying to get his helmet back as the other one laughed. He then saw the third ODST waggling his finger at the ODST holding up the helmet. The ODST gave the one ODST his helmet back, and hey proceeded down the hall. A couple seconds later, Kirk Heard a knock on his door. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:09 PM Vernette: You know...I must admit...I am kind of creeped out going to the cloning facility... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:09 PM lance nodded "allright if you hear an explosion send reinforcements." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:12 PM Clark: Will do! If you need me, I will be on the bridge...of this semi-completed ship... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:13 PM (now to wait for delta) cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:20 PM Soap: Pish Posh, You've seen weirder things. *meanwhile* Kirk was still sitting at his desk. ODST voice: He didn't open the door....What do we do? ODST Voice: It's only been like.....5 seconds Tiny. ODST Voice: This isn't trick or treating, We don't wait 10 seconds, then move on the the next house. ODST Voice: I don't know what you got when you trick or treated, but you don't wait 10 seconds after you ring the doorbell, you'll get like, no candy! ODST: Shut up, we need to talk to Kirk. Kirk was rubbing his temples. Kirk reset the counter and stood up. He opened the door while Arnie, Paul, and Jerome were in deep conversation. kirk kicked Arnie to the wall, he then elbowed Jerome in the face, he then headbutt Paul. He brushed lint off his uniform. Kirk: Well, this was disappointing. Jerome got up and charged at Kirk. Kirk kneed Jerome in the stomach. Arnie went up behind Kirk and had his arm wrapped around his neck Kirk grabbed a golf trophy from his shelf and smacked it against Arnie's head, knocking him down. Jerome got up, stumbling, he threw a very weak punch at at Kirk's chest, he then fell to the floor. Kirk sighed Kirk: What does Vernete want this time? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:23 PM Vernette opened the door to the cloning labs. Vernette: Perhaps your... Vernette looked at the rows and rows of tubes filled with clones. He could see no end to the rows. Vernette: ...wrong...this is officially the weirdest thing I have seen... Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:33 PM 411:this is a mighty ship[.. cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:35 PM Soap's eyes widened. Soap: I guess he takes this whole "Always have a clone when they're involved" very seriously. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:43 PM Delta entered the hanger bay and jumped into his Phantom. Delta: They are expecting ONI...not The Covenant... Delta started the pre-ignition sequence. kenshin 02-18-2010 06:47 PM lance picked reloaded his battle rifle. "his plan might actually work." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:55 PM Delta's Phantom landed outside the tunnel. he met up with several ODST teams about to enter the tunnel system. Delta: Whats the situation? ODST: We have regrouped, and we are about to storm the tunnel system. We have lots of heavy equipment. Delta looked over his shoulder and saw two ONI Scorpion tanks. He also saw several Warthogs. Delta: Alright...I am going to...assume command of this operation... The ODST's looked at each other. ODST: Taking orders from a Brute...this will be a new experience... Delta hopped into a Warthog. He revved the engine. Delta: You know it to be true! Alright...lets get this show on the road! Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:56 PM 411:yes, im just hanging around for the steel i need and the shaw fuikjaw drive... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:57 PM lance's hairs on the back of his neck stood up. "must be the cold." he said as he sat down Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:59 PM 411:dont look now, i havde a bad feeling also... kenshin 02-18-2010 07:02 PM lance looked at 411 as he heard his explosives go off. "shit. there moving in. grab a weapon we got company." lance said as he slung his battle rifle around his back and loaded an smg NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:03 PM Delta's Warthog sped down the highway tunnel system. Tyber: So priority one is getting the Tantalus back right? Delta: Correct! Tyber: What do we do with the henchman? Delta: We gun them down! Delta's warthog pulled yup to the large door. Delta: Someone get a charge on that door! an ODST planted charges on the door and destroyed the large door. (The explosion lance heard.) Delta: Everyone move in! kenshin 02-18-2010 07:08 PM "great! just what i needed!" lance yelled as he picked up a rocket launcher and emptied it's tubes NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:12 PM Delta: Watch out...rockets! Sniper teams take point! kenshin 02-18-2010 07:15 PM a sniper round richocheted off the weapons locker behnd lance "you can take an eye out with that!" he yelled firing his battle rifle with deadly accuracy NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:17 PM Tyber: Delta...did you hear that? Delta: I wish I didn't... Delta activated an incendiary grenade. He took aim for a fueling station. kenshin 02-18-2010 07:25 PM lance saw delta prime the grenade sorry delta lance shot the grenade still in delta's hands NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:36 PM The grenade set Delta's arm on fire. Delta: Aww shit! Delta patted his arm out. Delta: And that's why I hate Grenades... Delta drew his hammer and held it in his hand. He activated it. Delta: This is what I like... kenshin 02-18-2010 07:51 PM lances rifle sang out and knocked odst's down with every shot until a warthog mounted machingun was aimed at him "aw fuck." he said leaping back as it chirped all around him NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:54 PM ODST: Press forward! Delta nodded. He charged forward, hammer in hand, and began to swing through the resistance between him and the Frigate. kenshin 02-18-2010 07:58 PM lance fired his smg at the gunner, killing him, and hopped on the gun. mowing down any reinforcements in the tunnel NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:03 PM Delta saw Lance hop on the gunner. He charged at the Warthog and flipped it over, knocking Lance onto the ground. Delta: Didn't you tell me less then two hours ago that you were going to settle down for a new life? Delta pressed the sledge part of his hammer into Lance's chest, pinning him to the ground. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:05 PM "apperently growing up in war means you come back to it one way or another." lance said as he struggled to move away NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:08 PM Delta: Why don't you tell me what the story with that Frigate is...and I will let you live long enough to drown in your own blood! kenshin 02-18-2010 08:27 PM "oh delta i would think by now you would have learned. dont give me to much time." lance smiled as a small bundle of c-4 exploded on delta's leg knocking him off balance as lance got up and ran towards clarks defensive line. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:28 PM Delta stood up. He snarled and chased Lance to Clark's defensive line. Delta: Get back here you little worm. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:31 PM "worms dont move this fast." lance said as he and delta ducked under a swinging piece of ship battle armor that swept away a quarter of the odsts and one of the tanks "that woulda killed even you delta. you should thank me for running." he said as he started running again NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:32 PM Delta: Takes more then that to kill me! Barrabus took aim with his spiked and shot several rounds into Lance's leg. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:47 PM lance yelped and fell down. "i heal remember?" he said as he pulled out the spikes and aimed his smg at delta "i havent shot at you i'm not fighting you. dont make me. i dont want to hurt a friend." he said "i dont shoot people i trust. please dont make me" *9 years ago* lance loaded his shotgun with his final shells "goddamn i'm surrounded." lance said clutching at his bleeding side "this is fucking beautiful." he fired another round at the one of the insurrectionist flanking him. "come on you sons of bitches!" lance yelled at the insurrectionists moving towards him "i dont want to kill you slade! i dont want to fight you!" lance yelled a out "but you have been warned by scott himself to not interefere with our plans under pain of death." slade yelled back "you chased me down! am i supposed to lay down and die? i dont wanna kill you we grew up together! dont force me too!" lance replied "your a traitor, sure our childhood was together but that was when we were on the same side. but you have betrayed our cause. you have to die!" slade said as he closed in NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:54 PM (Wasn't Lance part of the insurrection during Reach? if so...based on the current time, that was only two years ago. Unless he rejoined and you have this planned out.) Delta stopped. He aimed at Lance. He glared at Lance in silence. Delta: My instincts are telling me to put a slug right into your head...to remove your head right from your torso...hell...even Tye is telling me take your head off... Delta holstered his weapon. He extended his hand to help Lance to his feet. Delta: I have watched too many friends die...I have lost more friends then I have left... kenshin 02-18-2010 08:59 PM (if thats the case than technically lance couldnt have been in reach. he left the insurrectionists after tim died which was before reach. so i fucked up timewise but meh w/e) lance took delta's hand and stood up "same here delta." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:02 PM (Well lance is already in Reach, so I guess that's how it boils down. We have not finished Reach, we can always kill Tim if you wanted to) Delta: What the hell are you doing here? Do you even have any idea what you are doing? kenshin 02-18-2010 09:07 PM "to tell the truth. i am just doing this for a room." lance says with a laugh. but hit the floor when an explosion hits nearby NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:15 PM Delta knelt down to shield himself from the explosion. Delta: A room? Your homeless? Delta chuckled. Delta: Let me explain something to you. I am here to recover something for Vernette; a piece of equipment that was stolen a month ago. Tell you what, if you lend me a hand, it could go a very long way in getting Vernette's attention off of you. Delta stopped. Delta: I realize you are...working on the wrong side here, by fighting ONI and such...but I have an excellent idea...if you are interested in getting back on the UNSC's good side that is. Its your choice. Killer 2 02-18-2010 09:19 PM 411 silently slipped away into the unfinished ship NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:29 PM Clark was yelling over the intercom. Clark: keep those ONI assholes away from the ship! Killer 2 02-18-2010 09:33 PM 411 headed towards the transport with the shaw fuikjawa kenshin 02-18-2010 10:05 PM lance was torn "i'll get it back on one condition. you dont hurt their leader. i'll get the drive back hell i'll hand deliver it. just dont touch clark." lance said with his hand outstreched "do we have an accord?" NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:16 PM Delta: What is so special about their leader? Killer 2 02-18-2010 10:19 PM 411 asaw the ODSTs breaking through the lines 411:now... where is my titainuim steel.....\ 411 spotted another truck he hitched it up 411:hope this goes fast enough.... 411 started driving out the back kenshin 02-18-2010 10:19 PM "he doesnt deserve to die. after this maybe leave him on a deserted planet somewhere but not death." lance said as he lead delta through to the ship. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:27 PM Delta: Alright...I will spare the leader...all I want is the drive core. Tyber: Delta...how are you going to get the Drive core off the ship? That thing is massive? It is at least 3 tons! Delta: I'm thinking... Delta began to think. He looked at Lance. Delta: To be honest Lance...I will spare him...but Vernette might want him dead...I am kinda stuck on this... Killer 2 02-18-2010 10:29 PM 411 managded to eescape the dock without being seen 411:ok now to find a good contrustion site.... kenshin 02-18-2010 10:35 PM lance shot one of the rebels guarding the drive core. "well its your decision." lance said as he sized the core up "this things heavy. at least three tons. give me a minute though and i can whip up a pelican." lance said with a determined look as he ran out to the unfinished hangar NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:40 PM Tyber: Begin disconnecting the drive core from the auxiliary power matrix and be sure decouple the primary power matrix from the secondary spanners. Delta stood still and looked at the core. Delta: What the fuck are you talking about Tye! Speak English! Tyber: Pull the big yellow wire from the wall. Then cut the Big blue wire. Delta: Oh...that's easy! kenshin 02-18-2010 10:46 PM lance grabbed the engineer working in the pelican "peekaboo" he said as he snapped his neck and hopped in the pilots seat and flew it to delta dodgin falling and swingin machinary and steel. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:51 PM Delta looked out the side of the engineering deck and Saw Lance in the Pelican. he contacted Lance on the comm. Delta: Lance... this thing is REALLY heavy...flying a Pelican is going to be very tricky...especially with all this junk floating around. Bring the Pelican closer, I will strap the Drive Core onto the back and I will take it from there. Once I get this thing back to The Cloak and Dagger...I can call it a day...and you can do your own thing. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:00 PM lance lowered the pelican and jumped down to help delta. "i'm going back to the cloak and dagger. i have to face vernette. i deserve whatever punish ment he decides to dish out. i thought about. he might kill me. but i mean no matter what i'm a soldier born and bred and like you said i'm homeless, where would i go?" lance said as he cliked the lock on the core in place "all done lets go." lance said as he hopped in teh pelican NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:04 PM Delta: Well...to be honest...I think Vernette was overacting. Delta paused. Delta: 65. That's how many times he has been shot. On average...he gets shot... Tyber: about 1.0317 times a year. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:05 PM "and how many of those people are still alive?" lance said as delta stepped in the pilot seat NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:10 PM Delta: Minus you? One. Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:13 PM 411 found what lookd like a half deystroyed ship yard 411:perfect, ill have salvadge kenshin 02-18-2010 11:13 PM "exactly. and i'm probably the only one who is willing to face justice. just dont worry you were a friend when i needed delta thank you." lance said as he sat back NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:16 PM Delta: Well...Vernette may surprise you Lance. However...he is not on board right now. He is currently on a mission so you wont have to face justice right away. I don't know what your going to do...but you might as well try and reconcile with Max. Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:19 PM 411 walked into the shipyards office and layed out a ship plan on the table 411:shaw fuijkawa drive, check, steel titanium, check, that leaves... 4 archer missle pods,engines nav computer and life support kenshin 02-18-2010 11:21 PM lance smiled "i doubt she'll take me back. but i guess its worth a try." lance said with a resigned sigh NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:23 PM Delta: Max has been rather bitchy lately anyways. She is acting very defensive. I told her that I had a bit of free time...and she thought I was dishing out a pickup line. So she immediately shoots me down...pretty weird if you ask me. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:25 PM "what the fact that she shot you down or the fact she's defensive?" lance laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:28 PM Delta: That she shot me down... Delta laughed. Delta: I am joking. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:29 PM lance laughed "i dont know maybe next time." lance laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:36 PM The Pelican landed in the Cloak and Dagger hanger bay. Delta stepped out. Delta: Well Lance...you might as well go and see how Max is doing. With Vernette gone, and Hayes in the medical bay...I have been forced to run the show...so I have bridge duty... Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:38 PM max was using a ping-pong paddla string thingy max:153, 154, 155, 156 cubanpete24 02-18-2010 11:38 PM Kirk: So, Why're you here, here to kill me? tranq me? Does it involve Eugene? Jerome rubbed the bridge of his nose. Jerome: Yeah, We were thinking of knocking you out, taking you to the cloak and Dagger to hide you, then Soap and Vernette would come here with one of your clones, shoot it and rough it up. then drop it to the floor. Once Eugene comes, he'll have noone to kill, and we'll see what he does from there. Kirk: Really? Like no way! I planned on doing the same thing, but apparently Vernette didn't want to hear it, so I had to improvise. Alrighty then let's go. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:39 PM "good luck delta." lance said as he walked to max's room Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:41 PM max:163, 164 fuck! maxes count was interupted by a knock on her door max:its unlocked... NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:41 PM Vernette: MacTavish...look at this...the manifest shows exactly 312 clones...ready for deployment. Vernette continued reading the terminal. Vernette: Holy crap...I cannot believe this...I am utterly shocked! Vernette looked at MacTavish. Vernette: Just don't stand there...shoot something! kenshin 02-18-2010 11:44 PM lance walked in "hey max. i'm..uh....back i guess.." lance said with a nervous smile Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:46 PM max narrowed her eyes max:you have some nerve coming back here, get out cubanpete24 02-18-2010 11:47 PM Soap pryed open a cryo tube. Kirk's clone stumbled out. Kirk: I am inferior to the almighty Kirk Korman. I am but a mere clone I need help to wash my anus. Will you be my friend? Soap took out his automag and shot it, in Kirk's forehead. Soap was speachless as he picked up the body and slung it over his shoulder. Soap: Alright let's go. Soap's comm fuzzed. Jerome: Ey Sarge? Soap: What is it. Jerome: We have Kirk. Soap: Good. Jerome: But.....When we tried to knock him out....He kicked our asses, we explained our plan to him..... He's fine with it. Soap: Well that's good, I'll inform Vernette. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:47 PM "listen max. just hear me out." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:50 PM Vernette: Explain what? Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:56 PM max:yea i know "he wuz gonna blow up da ship!" story, wanna know what i say? bullshit! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:01 AM "so you dont believe me? wouldnt you have done the same? would you have made 600+ people die because your were to squeamish to pull the trigger? max you gotta understand. i came back regardless of what happens t face justice. regardless of the reasons what i did was stupid. and i deserve everybit of your anger. i just wish you would understand." Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:04 AM max:lance, you NEVER thought about, killing lyons, disarming the ombs or getting the deonator? i dont belive you, now get the fuck out (have lance like push max against thevwall in anger of frustration) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:06 AM (domestic violence!) kenshin 02-19-2010 12:09 AM lance grabbed max and held her against the wall "lets get one thing straight. i'm not leaving. i wont until i at least have your forgive ness. another thing if i would have tried any of that shuya would have stopped me before i could accomplish anything." cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:12 AM Soap: They captured Kirk, he was...awake needless to say, but they explained our plan to him, all wee need to do is drop off this body and get out of here. Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:13 AM max winced as lance slammed her againt the wall max:get away from me! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:14 AM lance let her go and sat on her bed "i'm accomplishing nothing." he sighed shaking his head Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:17 AM max:GET OUT! NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:17 AM Vernette: Whatever...this mission is fucked up enough...I personally do not care anymore... kenshin 02-19-2010 12:18 AM "MAX! i'm not leaving! we have to work this out!" lance yelled Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:22 AM max: im NOT FORGIVING YOU, get it through your thick head! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:23 AM "i'm a soldier i dont give up very easily!!" lance yelled back NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:24 AM Delta was sitting on the bridge, watching the events on the security monitor. Delta: Damn...shes pissed...reminds me of that time when... Tyber: Keep it to yourself! cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:25 AM There were footsteps outside Max's quarters They were fast and stomping with every step. *meanwhile* Soap and Vernette exited the Cloning facility and made their way to Kirk's office, Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:27 AM max:whats that? max looked at her door kenshin 02-19-2010 12:28 AM lance looked at the door "i dont know" cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:29 AM Harold stormed into Max's quarters, he looked at Lance. Within seconds, he stormed at Lance rasing his fist. (Dodge or take the punch, your choice) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:38 AM Vernette and MacTavish dropped the body in the office. Vernette looked at Mactavish. Vernette: One second... Vernette picked up a paper weight on Kirk's desk and dropped it on the dead clones face, bloodying the face. Vernette: it looks like there was a struggle. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:40 AM Soap: One more second.... Soap ripped off a sticky note from Kirk's desk, with a oen, he scribbled something onto the note. First- :P kenshin 02-19-2010 12:45 AM lance dodged the puch and grabbed harold and slammed him in the wall "what the hell man?" he asked Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:47 AM max reached for a knife max:your a soilder eh lance? soilders are replaceable kenshin 02-19-2010 11:28 AM lance dropped harold and looked at max "why? why are you acting like this?" cubanpete24 02-19-2010 03:38 PM Harold hopped back up, he picked up a flower vase and smashed it on Lance's head. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 03:41 PM Tyber: Put an end to this before someone dies! Delta groaned. He stood up and walked down to Max's quarters. He barged in. Delta: What the hell is going on here!? Meanwhile: Vernette: Alright MacTavish...lets get the hell out of here before crispy shows up. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 04:03 PM Soap: Alright, get to the pelican, I'll drop the body off. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 04:05 PM Vernette: Splitting up could be a bad idea... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:32 PM Soap: Fine, then let's go. Soap walked out of tthe cloning facility and headed for Kirk's office. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:34 PM Vernette: You know...with Kirk out of his office...this could be a golden opportunity... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:36 PM Soap: For what? We've already updated our intel towards Kirk's research NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:37 PM Vernette: True...but what do we know about the person? His history? His past? Who is he? I am banking that he keeps some personal family records around... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:39 PM Soap: Alrighty then, why not. (Wait......I just remembered, Soap and Vernette were in Kirk's office to begin with Just ignore the walking in the halls part) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:45 PM (lol I also forgot...) Vernette sat down at the desk. He looked at the terminal and began to type. Vernette: Keep an eye on the door. Vernette reached into his pocket and pulled out a data chip. he inserted it into the side of the display. Vernette: This is for my own personal records. I like to keep tabs on EVERYONE. All the highest ranking people have some sort of PROTOCOL. Its a collection of files concerning one subject or another...Kirks PROTOCOL seems to be biogenetic and sociological research. From what I have observed from his work, it seems the most likely case...I could be wrong though. Mine is Tactical Espionage. Intel on everyone I have ever met, documenting their weakness, strengths, personal history, background, psychological profiles...basically...everything I ever need to defeat someone. I document peoples weaknesses! Vernette looked at MacTavish. Vernette: And in case you are wondering...I have documented you as well...to a full extent... Vernette looked back at the terminal. Vernette: Kirk's documentation is a stub...I need more information on him. Vernette grinned. Vernette: Jackpot... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:35 PM ID: Korman, Kirk T. Sex: M Serial: 2442-EC Born: CLASSIFIED Address: 115 S. Canterbury rd. New Jenkins IL Ship(s): The Dead Ringer Occupation: CLASSIFIED Known Relatives: Natalie Korman-Deceased Geoff Korman-Deceased Eugene Korman-Deceased Megan Korman-Deceased Geoff Korman-Deceased Parents: Joshua Korman-Deceased Ellen Korman-Gourley-Deceased Orphan parents (optional) Data Corrupted Contacts File missing 404-error NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:38 PM Vernette: Partially complete files...but...I will do...for now. Vernette stood up. He took the data chip and then looked at MacTavish. Vernette: Alright, we are leaving. Lets get back to the Vulture and jet. Crispy should be here soon. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:42 PM Soap nodded and gripped the Data chip. They left Kirk's office and headed towards the vulture NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:45 PM Vernette and MacTavish stepped into the Vulture. Vernette sealed the rear hatch. He looked at Kirk. Vernette: Before you say it...I am not doing this to help you...I just don't like leaving dangerous situations in the hands of other people without direct supervision! cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:46 PM Kirk: But of course, did you leave my patsy? Soap: A what? Kirk: A clone NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:48 PM Vernette: We left one of them, yes. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:50 PM Kirk: Good, It'll be a while till Eugene finds out that that is a clone NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:55 PM Vernette: Now we get back to The Cloak and Dagger...and wait for crispy to show up...then...we do what we need to do...its that simple. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:58 PM The vulture left the hangar bay. A couple seconds later, A pelican entered the hangerbay of the Dead Ringer. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 07:00 PM Vernette: That could be cripsy now...I think we should make a hasty escape before he sees us! Vernette activated the slip space drivecore. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 07:51 PM Eugene entered the Dead RInger, Once he was in, he hopped out and made his way to Kirk's office. Chuckling deviously to himself NakedCrook 02-19-2010 08:00 PM The Vulture dropped out of slip space near The Cloak and Dagger. Vernette landed the Vulture in the hanger bay and he stepped out. Vernette: Remember Kirk...this is my ship...I am always watching. The moment I get fed up with having you here, is the moment I cram you into an escape pod and I fire you into Loyalist Territory. Stay on my good side and mind your own business. MacTavish...take Kirk to deck 13...I know we have a few spare rooms down there. cubanpete24 02-20-2010 01:59 AM Soap: Right away. Soap looked at Kirk, he nodded, and Kirk followed Soap. They stepped into an elevator, it started Descend to deck 13 Soap: So, tell me about yourself Kirk. Kirk: What do you want to know Teabags. Soap: For the love of- Not all Brits like tea. Kirk: Strange, this one spartan I knew....I forgot his name, but he loved Tea, wonder where that fellow is now. Right, well what do you want to know. Soap: I dunno....uh...parents? Kirk: It's a touchy subject. My mother was a whore, and my father was a drunk. My father he.....murdered my mom when I was 7 years old He told me to keep quiet, and I did. It was until later that night, I stood from my little cot, and grabbed a a plastic bag, and killed my father in his sleep. Looking back, it may have been.....drastic. But it had to be done, men like him don't deserve to live. Soap tugged his collar. Soap: So....did you have orphan parents? Kirk: I ran away from home, and went to live with my grandmother for 8 years. She soonafter died from a heart attack. So there I was, at the age of 15, With barely any education, and nowhere to go. I was a street rat, but not for long, I lived in a cardboard box for about 2 days before I was sick of it. But then, my saving grace approached me, I saw a poster, looking for recruits in the UNSC. Anything was better then the life I currently had, so, I enlisted into the UNSC Acedemics Acadamy at the age of 15, That's where I met sweet sweet Natalie. Now Soldier, that I've answered your question, I ask that you answer mine. Soap: Shoot Kirk: What is your name. Soap: Lester MacTavish. Kirk: Lester MacTavish.....Very Well. The elevator stopped. Kirk: I'll go from here. Enjoy your day Lester. NakedCrook 02-20-2010 03:05 PM Vernette rubbed his eyes as he walked down the corridors of The Cloak and Dagger. Vernette: Why isn't anything simple anymore. I remember a time when a person died...they stayed dead...in a way...I am glad Otto is dead. I should bury that research...that's now how God intended... Vernette walked into the office. He sat down at his desk and put the data chip into him laptop. He began to download Kirk's personal information into his files. Vernette: Kirk's mentality doesn't help the situation. Constantly trying to rebuild his son...all the cloning, all the experiments... Killer 2 02-20-2010 04:02 PM max:things! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 04:04 PM Delta: Look...all of you people have to screw off for a second. Max...I have a few things to explain to you. Come with me... Killer 2 02-20-2010 04:47 PM max:ok NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:00 PM Delta and Max leave Max's room. Delta: I bet your very curious about why Lance is here right? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:01 PM max:no NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:04 PM Delta: Well..lets just pretend you said yes. Delta laughed. Delta: You see...Lance escaped from Cryo prison. He escaped because you blew up the containment cell...which allowed anyone to just walk in an pull him out. So that's kinda your fault. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:06 PM max:ok NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:10 PM Delta: So...he escaped, and joined some terrorist group. The said terrorist group was responsible for stealing a classified piece of ONI equipment a month back. Vernette and I have been chasing these guys for some time. We finally caught up with them and were about to recover the piece of equipment. I just led the assault on their base and I found Lance there. I was about to kill him...but I spared his life...because he offered to help me recover the piece of equipment. He was true to his word...and I guess he wants to turn himself in to Vernette. So...I brought him here...and Vernette is going to ultimately decide his fate. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:13 PM ax;ok, just get him out opf my sight! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:14 PM Delta: So I guess you really hate him eh? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:16 PM max:yes! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:16 PM Delta: Cause he tried to kill you father? Am I right? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:18 PM max:partialy NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:22 PM Delta laughed. Delta: Its my job to ensure his safety. God knows your father has more then his share of enemies. Its my job to be distrusting of everyone he meets. I have known your father for close to 30 years...that is a very long time...and I will tell you that it takes more then a few gunshot wounds to warrant his full wrath! Your father is not one to hold grudges over a few gunshot wounds. Your father values integrity above all else. Only when someone does a serious crime against society does your father hold a grudge. Your pissed over a disagreement! I suggest you bury it Max. Don't let yourself be consumed by petty hatred. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:25 PM max:I do not want to see lance NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:26 PM Delta: Why not!? I want to know exactly why!? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:36 PM max:he beytrayed my trust, i do not like traitors NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:41 PM Delta: Neither do I...but in the most technical sense...I am a traitor. Do you hate me? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:59 PM max:i traitor towrds me delta... NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:04 PM Delta: Do you remember when we first met? Remember when I told you who I really was, what I really did? You thought I was the worst thing on two legs. You called me a monster. You were even willing to tell everyone else who I was, despite how much trouble it would cause me! You eventually came back an apologized to me, and I forgave you! Do you remember how bad you felt, how you pleaded with me? I want you to think back on that! Now...that is how Lance is feeling right now! Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:08 PM max started to think NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:12 PM Delta: Ultimately Max, if you want to hold a grudge against Lance for the rest of you life, its your choice. But that is a double standard Max. If you hold a grudge against Lance for the rest of your life, I would see you as nothing more then selfish! Delta paused. Delta: I don't believe you are a selfish person. Prove me right. Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:15 PM max looked at her room max:theyre really going at it arnt they? NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:16 PM Delta: And it's up to you to stop it! Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:19 PM max:i dont have a remote controll fo r harold! i dont know why he even punched lance! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:22 PM Delta: I can handle Sergeant Forkes. He doesn't weigh very much, I can carry him. Delta paused. Delta: By the way...if you going to get laid again...let me know so I can avoid any mishaps! Delta nudged Max and laughed. Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:26 PM max frowned max:ok lets go NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:27 PM Delta: I sense you didn't like my joke... Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:29 PM max walked into her room max:STOP NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:30 PM (This is where we need Cuban and/or Kenshin) cubanpete24 02-21-2010 12:05 AM Eugene entered Kirk's office, he saw that his golf trophy was bent, some of his picture frames were cracked, and Kirk's body. He picked up the sticky note scribbled with First- :P Eugene tightened his fist, crumbling the paper. Eugene: Vernette.... NakedCrook 02-21-2010 12:06 AM (Vernette is mocking Eugene. lol) cubanpete24 02-21-2010 12:09 AM (Yeah) Killer 2 02-21-2010 12:09 AM max struggled topull them apart max:stop it stop it stop it! (ignore me!)

[1] [2] [3] [4] NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:33 PM Delta watched the pod launch away. Delta turned to Hayes. Hayes: Good work on getting those two off the ship. Delta: Its my job. Hayes: To be honest...with all the shit that goes on...your a Godsend! Delta looked at Hayes confused. Hayes: Well...nobody here would have been able to separate those freaks! Lyons was stupid and short sighted for being such an asshole to you! Delta: Oh...yeah. I agree. Hayes: You know...for now...I want you to head up security on the ship! Keep things smooth and keep things running. If you need anything or someone has a problem, send them to me! Delta: Really? Thanks Hayes! Hayes: First thing is first...go and check on that Shella lady...you have known her longer then I have... Delta: Right... Delta nodded. he walked to Shella room and knocked on the door. Delta: Lenner! Open up! Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:33 PM once 411 reached his longsword, for good mesure he fired its cannons at the life boat obliterating it he then approached the ships holo table and placed the skull on it *meanwhile* shella opened the door shella:yea? Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:36 PM A hologram of Slomyg blinked up to life on the holotable. Ah, excellent job 411. And Toligs status? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:36 PM 411:deystroyed Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:41 PM Slomyg grinned. Wonderfull job 411, now return to base. Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:42 PM 411 looked confused 411:i thought i was done Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 03:45 PM Think of it as a reward. At the base there will be a folder on the table, it contains every detail of your "Past life". Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:45 PM 411 started flying back to base NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:48 PM Delta looked at Shella. Delta: Look...I am sorry about what just happened. I couldn't risk you getting injured by that thing. You called it your brother, is that correct? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:48 PM shella:yes NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:52 PM Delta: Brother or not, that is not the man you think it is. I spoke with him...it does not even recall its past. It did not know its own name, nor was it willing to indulge me with any other information. I remember you telling me your brother died. Whatever that thing was, it wasn't your brother. I kept you away because I was concerned for your safety. Do you understand? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:53 PM shela:yes KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 03:54 PM i still don't see how this helps NakedCrook 02-14-2010 03:56 PM Delta: Well...your more reasonable then Max is...that's for sure. Good. Know that I didn't confine you because I am an overbearing, egotistical jerk. That had nothing to do with it. I did it for your own safety. I know how irrational female humans can be...they tend to stop thinking when in the middle of an emotional response. Delta stepped aside. Delta: I just wanted to speak with you that's all. You are free to leave. Meanwhile: Beckett: I am showing you whats wrong with you so you can focus on your own rehabilitation. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 03:59 PM (lol irrational) okay? Killer 2 02-14-2010 03:59 PM shella:ok then NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:04 PM Beckett nodded. Beckett: Alright...go improve yourself. Meanwhile: Delta: If you need anything...let me know! KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:06 PM ....? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:07 PM shella:okay *meanwhile* max finished packing c4 into a bag NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:08 PM A Marine looked at Max. Marine: Whoa...what are you planning to do with all that C4? Meanwhile: Beckett: What do you want? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:09 PM max:stuff, training exercise KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:10 PM so thats it? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:10 PM Marine: Training? With who? There are no training regiments this month! Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:11 PM max:specific training. max walks out towards the hanger NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:14 PM Hayes was still in the hanger. He was inspecting the damage done to the hanger by Tolig's and 411's fight. He looked up from his PDA and saw Max. Hayes: Hey! Where are you going? He grabbed Max by the shoulder. Meanwhile: Beckett: Your a sex addict, your a whore, your pregnant. You need to focus on improving yourself to a standard. Something respectable...something established. Focus on a point in your life that was very good and strive for that level of respectability. Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:15 PM The longsword 411 was in docked into Slomyg's secret medical facility. 411 you may take the folder if you wish...Or you may start life anew, What will be your choice? KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 04:17 PM So i think about how i was before i got fucked up? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:27 PM 411 looked at the folder than hte door, unsure *meanwhile* max whiped around and struck hayes in the side of the head knocking him unconcious Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:29 PM No pressure, Im sure whatever decision you make will be the right one. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:29 PM 411 picked up the folder... Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:33 PM Im sure your choice was a good one. A door opened to another room to 411's left. Now if you will enter the door to your left. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:34 PM ..and ripped it in half Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:37 PM An interesting choice 411. Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:39 PM 411:if i am ment to be the same, then when I make my new future i will be the same as before. if not then.. 411 shrugs 411:good luck with your work slomyg 411 leaves the compound Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 04:40 PM Have a nice life 411, May we meet again. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:41 PM Delta walked into the hanger bay and saw Max's pelican leaving. He saw Hayes unconscious on the ground. Delta knelt down next to Hayes Delta: Hayes! Delta opened a comm channel. Delta: Beckett! Get your ass to the hanger bay! Beckett: I am on my way! Delta watched the Pelican leave from behind the sealed doors. He snarled. Delta: Don't these people understand discipline? Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:42 PM max:well slade, our adventure starts here NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:48 PM Beckett entered the hanger bay. He looked at Delta. Beckett: What happened to him? Delta: I found him like this. Someone just left the ship. I am assuming both incidents are related. Beckett: Damn. He has sustained serious trauma to the head. Whoever did this...hit him as hard as they could right in the temple. He has suffered a massive concussion! Delta smelt the air. He looked at Hayes and could Smell Max on him. Delta: It was Max who did this... Beckett: Vernette's kid? Delta: Trust me...I have spent a lot of time around her...I don't get a scent like that wrong...its her...she did this! Beckett: Why? Delta: I do not know. Get hayes to the medical bay...I will try and find out why! Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:48 PM max:slade? cubanpete24 02-14-2010 04:54 PM *20 minutes earlier* (I'd assume 20 minutes, because like, you know, a. the ship would've exploded by now, and b. Vernette and company can be placed anywhere by now) Eugene looked at his watch Eugene: 7 minutes. 34 seconds. Doug24: Oh shit.....OH SHIT! NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:56 PM (So Eugene shot Picard right? And Picard came stumbling out of the room?) cubanpete24 02-14-2010 04:57 PM (Picard's dead in his office, Eugene left the sticky note+smiley face thingy) kenshin 02-14-2010 04:57 PM slade apeared "sorry, distracted." Killer 2 02-14-2010 04:58 PM max:now to find out where lance is.. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 04:59 PM (alrighty) Vernette and RTJ came to Picards office. Vernette looked at RTJ and nodded. The entered and saw Picard dead on the ground. Vernette: Ohhhh....we are too late! Vernette picked up the stick note. He shook his head. Vernette: Well...my involvement officially ends. Let's hope Kirk can hold his own against this maniac... Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 05:01 PM A metallic arm came down from the ceiling and picked up the skull. Ah, To have a phsyical body again. And sane mind. The metallic arm dropped the skull into a capsul filled with a boiling liquid. The skull sank to the bottom as another pair of metallic arms took DNA sample's and slowly bone's,organs and cells began to form. All I have to do is wait. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:04 PM "you have any idea where he is?" slade asks with a slight smile cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:04 PM Jermaine looked at Picard's body. Jermaine: Hmm....Not to jump to any conclusions, but I think we should get off this ship. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:05 PM max:nope kenshin 02-14-2010 05:07 PM "well not to worry i've set the autopilot to our destination. it took a bit of digging to find the exact location but we'll be there in a matter of minutes." slade replied NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:09 PM Vernette: I don't like it when people jump to conclusions! Vernette stood up. Vernette: However...I have no further reason to be here. So yes...lets leave. Meanwhile: Delta walked onto the bridge. Delta: I want a full account of every Pelican currently not on the ship! Officer: Well...Pelican Echo-225 was destroyed a month ago, Pelican Charlie-091 is missing, no reason why. Vulture 000 was taken by Vernette. Delta: Track the transponder of Pelican Charlie-091. Officer: It is on a direct course for Earth! cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:11 PM Jermaine: True....True. I was just about to say, that Eugene may or may not have entered this with a "No witnesses" attitude, but likewise, jumpiing to conclusions isn't the best idea ever. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:12 PM max:good kenshin 02-14-2010 05:14 PM "you know delta will follow." slade added NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:15 PM Vernette: Wait...wait...no witnesses? Vernette paused. Vernette: I hate to sound like a total downer here...but is he going to kill EVERYONE on this ship? Meanwhile: Delta: Prepare to take us about...take us back to Earth! Officer: Any reason why? Delta: ONI Security... Officer: What about the Elites? They still need our help! Delta: Transmit everything we know...then jump us back to Earth! Let them trash the Brute cruiser...we have larger issues at hand! Officer: Alright, alright...chill... The officer transmitted the intel. The Cloak and Dagger plotted a course for Earth and jumped to Slip Space. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:16 PM max:i know the pelican landed kenshin 02-14-2010 05:17 PM "he'll kill lance if you let him out." slade stated bluntly Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:19 PM max: i know max walked into the compound and came to lances cryo stasis tube, she looked at the controll pad which was blocked by super strong glass only accesable by delta and vernette, max blew open the glass with all the c4 cubanpete24 02-14-2010 05:20 PM Jermaine: Like you said, jumping to concluions, it won't get us anywhere. Jermaine started to speed up his walking pace. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:21 PM "you giving lance a death sentence? why not just leave him?" slade asked after the smoke cleared Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:21 PM max partaly unfroze lance from his shoulders up NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:23 PM The Cloak and Dagger dropped out of slip space over Earth. Officer: Pelican Charlie-091 is landed in Norther Canada. Delta: Damn it! Tell Beckett to meet me in the hanger bay. Tell him to bring the suppression drug! Contact Director Vernette...inform him of the situation! Delta ran down to the hanger bay. He jumped into a Pelican and started the ignition. Beckett ran into the pelican. Delta: I need your expertise...in medical stuff. Beckett: So that's why your putting me in danger...makes sense. The Pelican flew down to Norther Canada and landed outside the compound. Meanwhile: Vernette saw Jermaine sprinting. Vernette: Fuck it...lets assume the worst and lets just fucking run to the hanger bay! Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:24 PM max locked the compounds outer doors max:whyd you do it lance? kenshin 02-14-2010 05:24 PM "what the fuck?" lance asked as he moved his torso. he looked at max. "must be dead. no other way i could see you." NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:25 PM Delta and Beckett ran to the outter compound doors. They were locked. Delta: Tye! Open the doors. Tyber: I need 30 seconds to bypass the locks. Standby. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:26 PM (lance is frozen from shoulders down. unfrozen from shoulders up) max:whyd you do it lance kenshin 02-14-2010 05:29 PM (i know but he just went from frozen to unfrozen so thats his only explanation.) "lyons was gonna blow up the cloak and dagger if i didnt. i had no choice i couldnt let you and everyone else die." he said Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:31 PM max: ok then, just wanted some closure max refroze lance and put slade into her bag and put him in the corner oposite to lances cryotube, she theen unlocked the doors and walked out kenshin 02-14-2010 05:33 PM (wtfu---------------BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMM MMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:33 PM Delta charged into the cryo stasis room. He saw Max. Delta: What the hell are you doing? Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:36 PM max:gestured to frozon lan ce max:i just got abit of closure, and you thought i couldnt get over lance NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:39 PM Delta: Nearly killing Hayes? Breaking into a classified facility? Using that possibly rampant AI chip? Sorry Max...my orders are VERY clear on this... Delta grabbed Max's arms and cuffed her hands behind her back. He forced her to the ground. Delta: No exceptions. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:40 PM (damn) kenshin 02-14-2010 05:41 PM (that was epic) Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:42 PM max:okay delta, i understand KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:42 PM (that bitch had it coming lol) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:45 PM Delta: Vernette warned me you might attempt something like this. He instructed me to place you in the same cryo stasis Lance is in, should this event come to pass. Delta picked Max up and dragged her to an open stasis tube. Delta: Consider yourself fortunate...if you were anyone else...I would have gunned you down. Delta forced Max into the tube and sealed it. He walked over to a control panel and activated it. Delta: Nothing personal Max. Once I get into contact with Vernette...he will deal with you. Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:47 PM as max started to freeze seh waved goodbye to delta, smiling NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:49 PM Delta walked over to the tube. He clenched his fist. Delta: Well...I can wait here I guess... Beckett examined Lance's cryo tube. Beckett: His eyes are moving. Is he conscious? Delta: Yes he is...he can see and hear everything...he just can't respond. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:51 PM lance looked right at becket idiot.... Killer 2 02-14-2010 05:51 PM maxim fine with this i can ocupy mself until vernette gets her.. alright 2 to the power of 2 is 4.. kenshin 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (lol) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (Does ice make people want to do math or something? Also, I need to drag Vernette here. I will super post after this so give me a minute or two.) kenshin 02-14-2010 05:52 PM (k) KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 05:53 PM (math is evil) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:02 PM Vernette and RTJ ran to the Vulture. Vernette jumped into the pilot seat and the Vulture sped from the Huntsman's hanger bay. The Vulture was shaking from the speed. Several large explosions could be seen from The Huntsman. The ship cracked into several pieces. Vernette: Holy shit...that was...bad... Vernette sighed. He then noticed the Cloak and Dagger was in orbit of Earth. Before Vernette could contact the Cloak and Dagger, he recieved a message from one of the officers. Vernette read the message. Vernette: Attention Director Vernette. The Brute brought us back to Earth under the assumption that ONI secrets were going to be compromised... Vernette thought for a moment. Vernette: SHIT! Lance! The Vulture landed in the Cloak and Dagger so Vernette could drop RTJ off. Once RTJ had disembarked, Vernette flew to Northern Canada. His Vulture landed outside. He ran inside the base and saw lance was srtill frozen. He saw Delta looking at Max's tube. Vernette: Delta! What happened? Delta: Max tried to break lance free. I managed to stop her. As per your orders, I threw her on ice. Vernette: Hmmm...Max... Vernette walked up to Lance's tube. Vernette: Perhaps I should put a bullet in your head! Vernette grinned. Vernette: Whats that Lance? I can't hear you! Speak up! Vernette laughed. he knocked on the glass. Vernette: Fuck you Lance. Delta approached Vernette. Delta: What do we do with Maxie? Vernette: Let her out! Delta walked over to the controls and began to thaw Max from the cryo stasis. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:04 PM max sepped out max:delta, i wasnt trying to let lance out, check the security feed NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:07 PM Vernette: Oh really? Delta: You still nearly killed Hayes! You broke into a classified facility! Tyber: She did thatw him out. I already checked the feeds. Delta: You also have a corrupted AI! Vernette: These are pretty heavy charges Max...begin explaining yourself! Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:08 PM max:then, i refroze him after 10 seconds of conversation NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:11 PM Vernette: You still violated a standing order! My standing order! I don't like it when people disobey my orders! Surely you know that? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:11 PM max:yes i know that, i knew teh risks NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:18 PM Vernette: I would think my own God damned daughter would understand the simple rule of OBEY MY ORDERS! Vernette paused. Vernette: I am not letting you off the hook for this! Vernette glared at Max while he pointed at Lance. Vernette: This fucker STAYS ON ICE! Do not interact with him, do nothing. Don't even thaw him for 10 fucking seconds! SO help me God almighty Max...NEVER...EVER...thaw him again! This asshole tried to kill me. This is his punishment for pissing me off! An eternity of hell! Vernette paused. Vernette: From this point forward your clearance is revoked. You will not be able to fly, pilot, or operate any vehicles. You will only be allowed to leave the ship under my authority. You will not be allowed to utilize any weaponry or equipment. Doing so, contrary to MY orders, will land you in your own personal hell...do I make myself clear? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:19 PM max:yes sir NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:22 PM Vernette: Good... Vernette looked at Delta. He gestured to Max. Delta grabbed Max and guided her out of the main chamber. Vernette turned back to Max and glared. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:22 PM max didnt resist kenshin 02-14-2010 06:22 PM shuya watched this all ahppen interesting he fears lance? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:25 PM Vernette: Another one of these uncontrollable psychos. I could end it right here and now. I could end him right here and now... Vernette pointed his gun at the stasis tube, lining up a shot with Lance's head. Vernette: No...its too easy for you Lance. Once I wrap up that little loose end...I will freeze his ass right next to yours. Shuya can't run forever...it is only a matter of time before he is found. Meanwhile: Delta: I have never seen him that pissed before. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:27 PM max shrugged max:i wasnt letting him out you know NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:28 PM Delta: Still...Vernette doesn't want him out. He made that very clear to you. When you blew out the locking mechanism...anyone can just walk in an unfreeze him now. You fucked up Max. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:43 PM max:delta, theres somthing called a new locking mechanism, or 500 feet of titanium NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:51 PM Delta: You came her for closure? Why would you want closure from the man who tried to murder your father? Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:52 PM max:just wante to know why he did it NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:53 PM Delta: I know why he did it. I can answer that for you right now. Delta cleared his throat. Delta: I tried to kill your father Max because I am a treacherous little bastard, and I was hoping to spread your legs later that night! Delta: Even I knew that...damn...I thought you would be able to piece that together Max. Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:56 PM max:i thought that to, but turns out according to him lyons would blow up the ship if he didnt do it NakedCrook 02-14-2010 06:57 PM Delta: Max...I haven't been shot in the head that many times to believe that crap! If that were true...why didn't he just tell Vernette right away...instead of shooting him? Think Max! Come on Max...your smarter then this! Killer 2 02-14-2010 06:58 PM max:...which is why i didnt belive him, which proves he is 100% lying shit NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:01 PM Delta: At least you WERE smart enough to see through that crap. Delta and Max stepped into the Vulture. Delta: No hard feelings about the whole throwing you into the cryo tube right? Killer 2 02-14-2010 07:03 PM max:none KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 07:06 PM (can i just skip to my chick being no longer a whore?) NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:07 PM Delta grinned. Delta: Good... Delta laughed. Delta: We all know I have been pretty rough on you over the years. -Breaking your back, -Tossing you around -Chewing you up -Beating you up Delta: Most people would tell me to fuck off! (If you want) Killer 2 02-14-2010 07:09 PM max:yea.... well living hell starts in around.. max looks out the window of the pelican at the c and d max:approximatly 12 minutes NakedCrook 02-14-2010 07:11 PM Delta: Well...Vernette was just pissed. You saw what he did to RTJ...and how quickly he took them back. I am sure things wont be that bad. I will see if I can talk him out of it. Its funny...he has a worse temper then I do at times...pretty odd. (FYI Vernette is still on Earth, Delta is flying the Pelican and Max is in the back I would assume) KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 07:13 PM goes to room picks up a laptop lets see if i can still hack things accesses the doctors files and deletes anything he wrote on things Tina told him whats this vernette stuff oh shit exit exit now! i hope no one noticed NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:26 PM (lol...I need to get Vernette back to the ship) cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:37 PM Eugene's pelican hovered outside the Huntsman. Eugene: Yankee Doodle rode to town...riding on a pony- Doug24: Your insane. Eugene: When haven't I been insane. Life is a giant joke, and when you tell the same joke a one too many times, it gets to ya. Doug24: I can't believe we were wasting our time looking for you. For Pete's sake, the AI version of you is more Eugene. Eugene: AI version of me? Doug24: What? AI version of you! Preposterous, Eugene: Wait a tick.....When Beurscott gave me, you. He said it was an AI of myself yet.... Your nothing like me. Doug24: Well....I'm sure that can all be explained in a....uhh....LOOK A- Eugene: Where is it Doug. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:46 PM Vernette walked back to his Vulture and returned to The Cloak and Dagger. Once aboard, he returned to the armory to find RTJ. Vernette: I don't know about you guys...but barely escaping a doomed ship really gets on my nerves. I don't like it one bit. However...to be honest...I cannot let someone like this run around free. We need to find and eliminate Korman. cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:56 PM Soap: I agree, I've heard of the guy in the past 5 hours or so, and I already want to kick his ass. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 08:58 PM Vernette: I know where he is going next...if all of you care enough to go and mop the floor with his face. cubanpete24 02-14-2010 08:59 PM Soap: Where's this bloke headin'? I wanna break every bone in his body. NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:00 PM Vernette laughed. Vernette: Did you just say bloke? cubanpete24 02-14-2010 09:01 PM Soap: Did you just say bullet in head? NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:07 PM Vernette: No... cubanpete24 02-14-2010 09:08 PM Soap: Lovely, now let's go find this son of a gun! KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 09:09 PM no one broke down my door so i think no one noticed good NakedCrook 02-14-2010 09:13 PM Vernette: It is very likely that he will be heading to the dead ringer...to kill Korman KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 09:22 PM why won't it exit! Grunt Hive Mind 02-14-2010 10:09 PM After some time Slomyg's body completly reformed. Slowly he raised out of his tube. It feel's simply refreshing to be alive again. Stepping out of the tube and donning his armour he stretched. Now I need a courier to fetch my chemical's and take care of problems. Slomyg rubbed his eyes. I shouldn't of let 411 go.... Slomyg paced the lab. Looks like I need to get some under my employ..... Slomyg went to a filing cabinet and pulled out a folder. Now let's see.....I still have 98 in debt to me. Slomyg grinned. Looks like I need more in debt to me. KillerRabbit213 02-14-2010 10:11 PM Kate:theres no way this day can get worse cubanpete24 02-14-2010 11:17 PM Soap: So we're going to save Kirk? Killer 2 02-14-2010 11:47 PM 411 walked around on the surface of mars, got in his longsword and plotted a random jump NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:11 AM Vernette: Well...are we going to save Kirk? No...not our mission. Our mission is to find Eugene and...eliminate him...if we run out of options. Meanwhile: Delta looked at Max as they walked through the halls of The Cloak and Dagger. Delta: So...I guess its over between you and Lance? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:13 AM max:you could say i gave him the "cold shoulde" (badom ch! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:14 AM Delta: That's very cold hearted Max... Delta chuckled. Delta: We're jerks. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:16 AM max:very "punny " jerks though NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:19 AM Delta: Its too bad though. I respected Lance. He was a good friend. However...he thought it was a better idea to knife my trust in the back. Despite his treachery...it was still kinda tough to throw him in that cryo stasis...knowing that he is always conscious...fully aware...unable to move, thing...he can only observe. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:22 AM max:you dont fuck with my family NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:24 AM Delta: Clearly... Delta paused. Delta: Max...how did that AI know where Lance was? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:26 AM max:dunno.. he said itt took some snooping NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:30 AM Delta: Remind me to ask him about that. However...all things considered...things are pretty good right now. I cannot complain about too much that's going on. Things got better when I eliminated Falcon Claw. Killing those jerks made my life so much better it seems. Delta laughed. Delta: Killing is the answer to all of life's problems it seems! Well...killing assholes anyways. But I have to know max...what are you going to do about squad placement? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:33 AM max:squad placment is the least off my worries. i cant even do target practice wihtout vernettes permisson NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:35 AM Delta: Oh yeah...that's right... Delta whistled. Delta: So...as you humans say...your grounded! Delta began to laugh. Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:40 AM max:basicly NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:43 AM Delta: I'm sure he will reconsider...just chill for a bit. Think of it this way...you basically get a vacation. I wish I could get a vacation... Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:46 AM max:i guess... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:48 AM Delta: No its true. You can relax and do nothing now! Take advantage of this! Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:50 AM max:yea!.. what should i do just lie on my bed? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:51 AM Delta: Its what I used to do! Whenever I had time off...I loved to sleep! Go back home and just sleep... Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:53 AM max entered her room, turned up the heat to a comfy level and started to sleep NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:54 AM Delta: Alright Max...talk to you later. Delta stopped. Delta: Max...where is that Slade AI? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:56 AM max:mmmmmm NakedCrook 02-15-2010 12:57 AM Delta: Max? The AI? Where is it? Killer 2 02-15-2010 12:58 AM max:in lances holding facility in a cabnet NakedCrook 02-15-2010 01:00 AM Delta: Awww...I have to go back there? Damn...alright. See ya later Max. I will be back soon. Don't go anywhere! Delta walked off and headed for the hanger bay. Killer 2 02-15-2010 01:01 AM max:*mumble mumble* NakedCrook 02-15-2010 02:27 AM Delta was walking to the hanger bay. Delta: So Max is going to sleep her life away now cause Vernette dropped the hammer on her. he was really pissed. Tyber: I have never seen him like act like that... Delta: Never? Tyber: Oh...he has his temper...but...that was just pure flipping out! Delta: Damn. Should we ask why? Tyber: Later. Delta: before we go and get Slade's AI chip...we should check on Hayes...see if he is alright. Tyber: We have the time. Delta walked into the med bay. he saw Hayes was on one of the beds. Delta looked at Beckett. Delta: How is he doing? Beckett: Better...however...I don't see him in action for a few days. he took a nasty blow to the head. Delta: But he will fully recover right? Beckett: Yes... There was a pause. Beckett: Look...When it comes to the whole rank thing...I am a doctor...not a commando, or some sort of war hero. I don't know very much about commanding ships and fighting bad guys. I heal people. With Hayes out of commission, and no other ranking officers on the ship...command falls to me when Vernette is not around... Delta: Whats your point? Beckett: I want you to take over for me...in terms of the command responsibilities when Vernette is not around. With Hayes out of it for the next little while, and Vernette off the ship more often then not...someone needs to keep the ship going...it won't be me! Delta: So...you want me to take over your job as second officer? Beckett: Yes...permanently! Delta grinned. Delta: People are going to hate this! Beckett: Quite the opposite actually. At least here on the Cloak and Dagger anyways...people seem to tolerate you more lately. Must have something to do with kicking the crap out of all those augments. Delta: Well...in that case...I can do that for you. Beckett: Good...you can start now. I will let Vernette know of the transition of responsibility. I was never cut for command anyways. You look like you have a firm grasp of it. Tyber: moving up in the world... cubanpete24 02-15-2010 01:44 PM Arnie: Hold on.....Look not to sound like I know everything about this guy but.....I may know everything about this guy. He complicates things, For example, why set explosives on key parts of a ship, when you could've just gone to the bridge, and set the self destruct? Paul: Why're you jumping to conclusions saying he set charges Arnie? Since when were you the go to guy on situations like this. Arnie: A. Because I'm a fucking genious and B. I don't think the ship just felt like blowing up. Who knows maybe This Eugene character entering the ship made it want to explode, I dunno. Soap: So what're you saying Arnie. Arnie: You said something about a list earlier right? So I'm just thinking, Eugene isn't going to Kirk just yet, but he's going to take a detour of some sorts. Jerome: Tiny does have a good point. Paul: Uhhhh, no. Look, Arnie's never been an asset to us in the past. but now he's all " I know everything and I'm jumping to conclusions. Bullshit! Soap: It's Vernette's call. Besides the more time we spend chatting the more of a chance Eugene has of blowing up another ship. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 03:01 PM Vernette began to think. Vernette: He might detour, but he will eventually go to kill Korman. I am only interested in sending this thing back to the ashes it was spawned from. To that end...we should make our way to the Dead Ringer. Eugene is resourceful. Waiting for him to strike is a dumb idea. We need to make a move. Vernette grinned. Vernette: We should "remove" Kirk Korman from the picture. With no target to kill...Eugene will have only a handful of decisions. Coming back here is one of them. We should kidnap Kirk, hide him, and then bait Eugene into one of our little traps. Killer 2 02-15-2010 03:05 PM 411 longsword appered 14 kelometeres out off jupiters orbit 411:holy shit that was close! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 03:23 PM Delta walked down to the hanger bay. Tyber: Where are you going? Delta: To recover Slade's AI chip. Tyber: You have to watch the ship! You're in charge for now! Delta: damn...your right...damn...just when I thought I escaped the confines of command. Delta shrugged and walked to the bridge. kenshin 02-15-2010 04:00 PM shuya sliced into lance's cryopod. "i need allies to brng down delta!!" NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:10 PM Delta walked onto the bridge and looked around. He sat down in the command seat and put Tyber's AI chip into the terminal next to him. Tyber: Well...not much to do other then sit and wait for something to happen. Delta: Max left the Slade AI in the cryo lab. We can go back and get it later. To be honest...it's kinda odd sitting here. Tyber: Well...to be fair...you do have more experience then everyone else... kenshin 02-15-2010 04:12 PM lance stepped out of the torn cryopod. coughing the nutrients and mucus from his lungs. shuya smiled "welcome back." he laughed (i edited my last post) Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:14 PM 411 lookd out around him 411:nothing but jupiter out here... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:14 PM (k. I don't have much to post so keep going) Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:15 PM 411 plotted another random course kenshin 02-15-2010 04:17 PM lance looked at shuya. "why are you here?" he asked shuya laughed "to free you. obviusly noone else is going to." he replied lance stared ahrd at shuya.. "no seriousy why?" lance asked again "to help me kill delta." he stated. "no." lance answered Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:18 PM 411s longsword arrived at a random planet, a small one he landed and stepped out and looked around, he saw somthign that looked like a farm in the distace, he walked towards it NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:25 PM Delta sighed. He leaned back. Delta: Whats our status? Office: Engines working at 97% efficiancy. Repairs to the hanger bay are unserway. Sickbay reports that Hayes condition is unchanged. Delta: Next time say nothing... kenshin 02-15-2010 04:26 PM shuya raised his sword at lance "no? your telling me no. haha, like lyons before you i hold leverage." he said inching the blade closer to lance "well at this point i dont care. kill me. i'm not helping you or anyone anymore. put me out of my misery." lance said raing his arms "fine." shuya smiled as he raised his sword and slashed down at lance Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:29 PM 411 reached the farm, he saw it was part of a community 411:strange this planet is lightyears away from UNSC or loyalist space.. 411 walked towards what looked like a townhall made from ship parts NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:34 PM Officer: Wait a second...I am getting some strange readings from Cryo tube L-06318. Delta: Lance? What kind of readings? Office: None...the cryo cycle has stopped responding. Delta grabbed Tyber's AI chip and hopped to his feet. Delta: Damn it! Someone could be busting him out. Tye...where is Max? Tyber: Still sleeping in her room. kenshin 02-15-2010 04:34 PM the blade hit lances shoulder but went cold and dull. not doing more damage than just knocking the wind out of lance. "what the hell?" both of the men asked "my....my blade wont kill you. it wont hurt you............its chosen you?" shuya said with disbelief as he shook the sword. almost talking to it. "no......i'm your master.....you cant do this to me!!!" he yelled at the blade as his hand turned and the sword flared to life and inched closer to his neck. "no!!!" shuya yelled the noble e 02-15-2010 04:47 PM (well i dont know what to post my post have been kinda of random) Jack:well im full Dean:same Roger:enough smoothies lets just stare at the coast Killer 2 02-15-2010 04:51 PM 411 walked into tje town hall he was approached by a preson in an admiral uniform man:who are you 411:im sombody looking for a new life the man extended his hand man:im preston j. cole, you found the righ tplace cubanpete24 02-15-2010 04:55 PM Kirk sat in his office, pondering. He looked at his pistol, with the engraving Always have a Clone when they're involved. on the slide. He sighed. Kirk: I suppose Eugene is the "they're" in this case. He got up and walked to his terminal. Kirk: Lieutenant Edgar. Officer: Yes? Kirk: Set up a comm line to Director Vernette. Officer: But didn't he just shoot you...in the shoulder a while ago? Kirk: The enemy of my enemy is my friend Lieutenant. Set up the comm line. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 04:55 PM (Cole is dead) kenshin 02-15-2010 04:58 PM shuya's blade plunged across his neck severing his head. and he fell flat on his chest dropping the sword a few feet away. "shit.....that was.........what the hell just happened?" lance asked as he picked up a uniform on the floor and put it on. he looked at the sword and saw it still glowing. "he said it chose me?" he picked up the sword and felt nothing. "hmph...he was just crazy." he said as he pulled off shuya's sheath and put it on his back. "well now.....how do i get out of here?" NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:01 PM Vernette looked at RTJ. before he could speak, he was contacted by the bridge. Officer: Sir...incoming transmission for you from The Dead Ringer...Admiral Korman on the line. Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: Kinda spooky...just as we are planning to kidnap him...he calls us. Let's see how this plays out. Vernette accessed the comm from Kirk. Vernette: What do you want Kirk? Meanwhile: Delta jumped into a Pelican and flew down to the compound. The ran inside the base. Delta: Why am I always coming back here? As Delta ran he loaded his spikers. He heled on in each hand. He stood outside the main cryo chamber. He ran in and saw Lance standing over Shuya. He pointed his spikers at Lance. Delta: Whoa...do I even want to ask? kenshin 02-15-2010 05:05 PM "to tell you the truth. i dont know." lance said as he picked up slades ai chip. and pocketed it. "check the security tapes. and erase them. take the credit for shuya's death. and say you killed me. i'll disapear and never bother you guys again. and max well......i spose shes fine." lance stated NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:06 PM Delta laughed. Delta: You think I believe you? You expect me to just let you walk away. You wont bother us anymore. I don't like being lied to! the noble e 02-15-2010 05:07 PM Jack:man i miss the war Dean:i dont more time to relax.... kenshin 02-15-2010 05:07 PM "i havent lied." lance said "look at the tapes." NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:11 PM Delta: Hmmm...you haven't lied? -You sided with Shuya and Falcon Claw. -You tried to kill Vernette. -You lied to Max about your reasoning...a rather poorly thought out lie. Delta: What am I supposed to tell Vernette? That I let you go? That I killed you? You want me to lie to Vernette? He will want to see the security footage! Your not getting out of this! Unlike you...I actually am loyal to Vernette. Your a treacherous swine! I do not, and will not lie, especially to Vernette! Killer 2 02-15-2010 05:12 PM 411 shook coles hand 411:nice to meet you colr.. but arnt you dead? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:14 PM Kirk: It's not what I want, it's what we want. It doesn't take a genius to figure out Eugene wants to kill me. Your familiar with my quote correct? "Always have a clone when they're involved" There have been variations of said quote, but it's the same basic principle kenshin 02-15-2010 05:14 PM "i did that to keep everyone on the cloak and dagger alive. youd do this same if you had no other options!!" lance yelled "it was vernette or the entire ship. i chose the only viable option. i knew he would survive. i could have shot him in the head i could have made a killing blow. but every shot i made was nonlethal. you dont believe me? gun me down right here. i wont fight back." lance said holding out his arms NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:20 PM Delta: Even after Lyons was dead...you still were still inclined to kill Vernette. The threat had passed. There were many occasions you could have warned either me or Vernette about what was going to transpire. You didn't. Lyons was easily killed, Falcon Claw was dealt with. Delta took aim. Delta: It's not secret you hate Vernette. You could have killed Lyons, you could have done anything besides helping him. You didn't! Every bone in my body is telling me to put you down like a rabid animal. But I won't. That is Vernette's decision. He gave you your life...its his to take away. Meanwhile: Vernette: I am not interested in saving you Kirk...where did you get that idea? kenshin 02-15-2010 05:24 PM "then take my life. go ahead. vernette wont mind. you know that, you wont shoot me. and if you do you wont kill me. so prove me wrong. you have the clearance." lance said looking delta in the eye cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:26 PM Kirk: Who said you were saving me? Ok, you don't want to capture Eugene at my expense, Alrighty then. Chow Vernette NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:32 PM Vernette: Chow Kirk. Vernette closed the comm. Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: That S.O.B. is trying to use me. I don't like being used. We do this my way...he gets no input! Meanwhile: Delta grinned. Delta: It's not my decision. It's Vernette's decision. Delta glared at Lance. Delta: First thing is first...put the sword on the ground...hurry up...drop it! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:33 PM lance walked away from delta and shethed the sword. "good bye delta. " cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:34 PM (Do you mind if I rp as one of Vernette's officers for a couple posts?) NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:35 PM (Sure, go ahead) Delta: Your not going anywhere! Delta holstered his spikers and drew his hammer. He slammed Lance into a wall. Delta: Right now...Vernette wants you alive because you have some value...as a trophy. If you leave this place, you become a a fugitive...a criminal. I can kill criminals. cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:38 PM Officer: Director Vernette! James has set up a contacted us, he wants to talk to you! NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:39 PM Vernette: You mean...Admiral Forkes? He wants to talk to me? Does he want to meet or would a comm line suffice? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:40 PM Officer: Well it's urgent I guess, he's on the comm terminal NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:40 PM Vernette walked over to the comm terminal and reactivated it. Vernette: I am busy James...What is it? Killer 2 02-15-2010 05:40 PM cole:..and thats why in alive 411:brilliant tactical display! cole:yes, indeed cubanpete24 02-15-2010 05:42 PM James: Alright then, first off, my AI has been nabbed for the second time Secondly, TELL OTTO TO STOP BRINGING BACK THE FUCKING DEAD! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:43 PM lance's bade slashed delta's hammer in half. "let it go delta." lance said NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:45 PM Vernette: Look Pachino...you don't need to yell! For your information...Otto is dead. Aren't these things supposed to have anti-theft on them or something? Secondly...who would steal your AI? Meanwhile: Delta: Let it go? Pfft! Delta grabbed Laces forearm and raised him into the air. he kicked Lance across the room. Delta: I am very difficult to move and I am very unreasonable! kenshin 02-15-2010 05:49 PM "delta i'm done fighting. kill me and be done with it." lance said sheathing te sword. "i'm not waiting for vernette, stop biding yer time and do it." lance said as he walked towards the exit NakedCrook 02-15-2010 05:51 PM Delta: Your a coward...you are afraid. You just want to walk away, and cower in some hole for the rest of your life. You have extraordinary abilities...yet you would rather dwindle them away while you drown in a pool of your own self pity! the noble e 02-15-2010 05:56 PM jack was being lazy so he fell asleep Dean:what a lazy ass kenshin 02-15-2010 05:57 PM "i'm stuck in a prison if vernette gets to me. death sounds like a nice reprieve. but i can finnally be free if i get out of here. call me a coward call me whatever you want. but it doesnt hide the fact we both know. i've lived my life in war. and its been nothing good. i lost max, my father, my humanity and my freedom. self pity? no i aint gonna do that. i'm just gonna find me a nice house, a small town and maybe a girl. something i can forget the past with." lance said as he kept walking NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:03 PM Delta sighed. Delta: You are running from your past Lance. That never works. It will catch up to you in some fashion. Sooner or later...you will be dragged right back in. Delta paused. Delta: My life has been lived in war as well. I have lost everything! Hell...I may even lose my home world when this war is said and done. I do not run from that fact though. I have had my fair share of tribulations but I got through them. Delta paused again. Delta: I guess I will let you leave. I will explain this to Vernette...I may get blasted but...I will live. Delta walked towards Lance and extended his hand to shake Lance's hand. Delta: Although my respect for you has dwindled to an almost non-existent level...I can still understand what you want. kenshin 02-15-2010 06:06 PM lance handed delta the sword. "i'll see ya delta. tell max i said hi." he said as he walked away NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:10 PM Delta turned around and looked at Shuya's decapitated corpse. Delta: When on a quest for revenge...dig your grave first. Delta used his foot to turn Shuya's dead body over on its back. He picked up the body and threw it over his shoulder. He grabbed the head in his other hand. Delta: Vernette may want this back. Delta carried the corpse back to the Pelican. kenshin 02-15-2010 06:12 PM lance walked out of the facility and saw delta's pelican fly off. "i wonder where a good bar is?" he asked himslef as he found a small dirt road and walked down it Killer 2 02-15-2010 06:13 PM 411:so, what do we do around here cole:help eachother NakedCrook 02-15-2010 06:17 PM Delta's Pelican landed in the Cloak and Dagger. He dragged Shuya's corpse out of the Pelican and brought it to the Cybernetics Lab. Delta: Alright Shuya...stay put and don't run off! The corpse was silent. Delta laughed as he walked out of the Lab. Killer 2 02-15-2010 09:57 PM max was walking and saw delta mx:finnally killed him eh? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:01 PM Delta: I didn't...he kinda killed himself...I got to watch him cut his own head off. I'm serious. I feel kind of ripped off. I wanted to kill him... Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:02 PM max:whered you find him? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 10:04 PM James: Well I"m hearing rumors....about a certain "Eugene Korman" off killing some UNSC officials, now this would still bother me if it was any other soldier killing UNSC officials but, but what makes Eugene Korman so special is that My AI is Eugene24 NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:07 PM Delta: He freed Lance from Cryo Prison then cut his own head off. I got into a very...one sided fight with Lance. I eventually just let him go. He took Slade with him and just walked off into the middle of nowhere. He told me to say say something to you. Oh yeah...he told me to say hi! Meanwhile: Vernette: Its the same person! Your AI is based of the psycho that's killing everyone. If you want...I can look for Eugene24 for you. I think I may know who has him. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:18 PM max:he has nerve.... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:21 PM Delta: Oh well...doesn't matter. If we need to find him again...we can. Delta looked back at Shuya. He circled the table that the torso was laying on. Delta: it seems a lot of weird shit is cropping up lately. Did you hear about that one guy? His name was 411? Keeping all these weirdos under control has landed me some serious respect. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:23 PM max:shella told me he is herbrother NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:25 PM Delta: Its weird. I enjoyed it when things were simpler. The only way to ensure someone is dead is to eat them. Unless you eat them...they can be brought back to life as some husk, machine, or clone...it makes me mad. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:28 PM max:what about beating them into a pulp, ripping the apart and heating those peices into there gaz form? cubanpete24 02-15-2010 10:29 PM James; That's what I'm saying! I think Eugene has my AI Likewise, My men are searching for him as we speak. I just though you should know, after some research on Eugene I heard he was one of your soldier. Like I said, just thought you should know. James cut the comm line. KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 10:32 PM Well shit im bored im gonna snoop on purpose this time click click (yay) Hmm Vernette's secret gadgets Cool a laser that slices through metal that kills well i guess thats not surprising Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:38 PM max:uhh delta do i have permisson to leave the ship? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:41 PM Delta shrugged. Delta: Eating them is easier! As for leaving the ship...why do you want to anyways? Meanwhile: Vernette looked at RTJ. Vernette: Why would EUgene have the AI? I would assume Kirk would have it. It would make sense. Kirk wanted to "clear the air" with his son. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:43 PM max looked from left to right max:justice.... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:44 PM Delta: Justice? Elaborate! Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:46 PM max:family justice... NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:48 PM Delta crossed his arms and leaned on the wall. Delta: Look Max...with Vernette busy looking for Eugene Korman and Hayes in the medical Bay...I am in charge. I need more information then that. Talk to me Max...the more I know...the more inclined I would be to help you. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:50 PM max:going after somthing that rymes with dance NakedCrook 02-15-2010 10:52 PM Delta: No. Lance is dangerous. He would break you in half. I cannot let you do that. It is too dangerous. Killer 2 02-15-2010 10:57 PM max:your just afraid lance and i will run away toghether.. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:00 PM Delta: Why would I be afraid of that? KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:14 PM eh whatever im very hungry exits room and walks to the cafeteria kenshin 02-15-2010 11:31 PM lance stepped into the bar and the bartender greeted him "whats yer poison stranger?" he said as he picked up a glass "anything with ice." lance said as he sat at the bar. NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:34 PM (Where is killer?) kenshin 02-15-2010 11:35 PM (killer!!!!) KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:36 PM tina walks past delta NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:38 PM (Thanks rabbit) Delta looked at Tina. He then look back at Max Delta: One second Max...

KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:39 PM well i got knocked up NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:40 PM Delta: Interesting change...you look respectable. kenshin 02-15-2010 11:40 PM the bartender drops a glass filled with whiskey in front of lance "you look like you got you ass handed to you by a gorrilla." lance laughed "basically." he replied sipping the drink "so you in town for long?" the bartender asked "i hope i just need to find a place to stay." lance replied KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:42 PM i guess kenshin 02-15-2010 11:46 PM "i gotta friend wanting to rent a room out you interested?" he asked "how much?" lance asked "free, he just needs some. chores taken care of in exchange." the bartender stated "like what?" lance asked "you know how to use a gun?" the bartender asked with a smile NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:47 PM Delta: Well...you are respectable enough to look at. KillerRabbit213 02-15-2010 11:49 PM you really think so? NakedCrook 02-15-2010 11:50 PM Delta: Yeah...

KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 12:01 AM (i gtg) thanks Well im on my way to get something to eat kenshin 02-16-2010 12:03 AM lance met the bartenders friend later behind the bar. (you can be the man if you want nc so we can keep posting) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:07 AM The man looked at Lance. Man: You must be Lance. My name is Clark. I see you have decided to lend a hand. (Post in the shout box what we are killing) kenshin 02-16-2010 12:12 AM "yea cut the crap whats the intel?" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:13 AM Clark: Something simple. I need you to ride shotgun on a little shipment. Still interested? kenshin 02-16-2010 12:14 AM "who am i protecting it from?" lance asked (it up 2 u) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:15 AM Clark: ONI. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:17 AM "musta pissed off a hornets nest. allright, wheres my weapon and ride?" lance asked with a smile NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:21 AM Clark: You bet. One of their experimental drive cores. Classified. I have few a few people. Everything you need in terms of equipment in in the locker behind you. Your ride, and the convoy, will be outside in 15 minutes. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:23 AM "you'll be glad you have me if the shit hits the fan." lance said as he pulled out an assualt rifle and an automag. grabbed a bag of explosives. "meet ya in the car." he said as he walked out to the convoy NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:24 AM Clark: Shit will hit the fan. Expect it. kenshin 02-16-2010 12:25 AM lance smiled not the peaceful life i wasexpecting but it'll work till i can get it. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:30 AM Clark got into the driver seat. He started the car and began to drive. Clark: So...whats your story? Whats your background? kenshin 02-16-2010 12:35 AM "names lance, i know how to use a gun. the rest will be explained when the bullets start flyin'" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 12:40 AM Clark: Fair enough. Like I said, my name is Clark, I know the ins and outs of the UNSC. I worked for ONI. I didn't like the direction it took. I quit. Meanwhile: Delta walked back to Max. Delta: Tina is doing weird stuff lately. I am not used to her looking like a decent person with dignity. In any case Max...I cannot let you leave the ship to go and chase after Lance. You need a better reason then revenge to convince me. This is my call. I'm sorry...but I do not want to be responsible if something happens to you. I couldn't live with that. Remember Max...when embarking on revenge...dig your own grave first. It will always destroy you. Killer 2 02-16-2010 07:28 AM max:ok delta max walks back towwatds her room kenshin 02-16-2010 01:09 PM lance nearly fell out of his seat when the truck jumped over a large bump in the dirt road. "i dont see oni. you sure they gonna try to stop us?" lance asked NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:19 PM Clark: I'm sure...ONI is good at not being seen until the last sec- A large explosion rang out, tipping Lace's and Clarks truck. A black scorpion tank with the ONI insignia on it rolled out and blocked the road. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:28 PM lance stepped out of the overturned truck wiping the blood off of his already healing wounds. and pulled clark out of the truck "show time!" lance said as he fired his rifle at the tank gunner NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:38 PM Clark: Wasn't expecting this kind of force. However, I still think ONI can do better. Keep your eyes peeled for any marines. I will go and ensure that the drive core is intact. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:42 PM lance nodded as he flanked the tank and took cover in a small depression. he smiled as the tank turned to line up a shot with lance and rolled over the anti tank mine he set up. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:45 PM Clark: Nice going kid. With that tank out of the way, we won't have to worry about the core being destroyed. Clark fired his SMG from behind cover. Clark: Just keep those ONI pricks off of me. kenshin 02-16-2010 02:50 PM lance stood up and fired at the flanking marines and drew hundreds of rounds back. "i got three moving to your right i'll do my best to distract them but i got my hands full." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 02:52 PM Clark: ONI is really coming down hard. Alright...I will try and make the move. They won't dare shoot at me if I am near the core. Its too valuable. Clark jumped from cover to cover. He fired his SMG in small busts. He took a round in the leg. Clark: I have been hit. its not bad though...I'm still on the move. KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 02:56 PM tina goes to the ships cafeteria and stuffs her face(...) kenshin 02-16-2010 02:57 PM an explosion took four of the men out and lance mowed down 2 others while taking a few rounds to the chest. "argh!" lance grunted as he spun and emptied the last of his clip into the hiding marine heal faster dammit lance thought as he ran to cover as a marine fired a rocket launcher in lance's direction. blood dribbling out of the fast healing bullet holes NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:00 PM Clark: We are losing people fast Lance! Our best chance is to make it to the truck carrying the drive core and to just speed our way out of here! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:06 PM lance took a round to the throat and couldnt replie. and ran towards clark motioning for him to go. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:11 PM Clark: Shit... Clark ran to the truck. He jumped into the drivers seat and tried to start the truck. Clark: Come on you fucker start! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:21 PM lance jumped into the passenger seat of the truck clutching at his healing neck and rasping "drive" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:22 PM Clark flood the pedal, crashing through ONI Warthogs. He looked over at lance. Clark: You are looking like real shit right now! kenshin 02-16-2010 03:30 PM "i'll be fine." lance said with his voice near normal as he fired his rifle at some pursuing warthogs NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:32 PM Clark: How the fuck do you heal like that? kenshin 02-16-2010 03:36 PM "a gift." lance reloaded his rifle and looked back "we're losing them." lance said with a sigh of relief NakedCrook 02-16-2010 03:40 PM Clark: I am surprised at you. You have not asked a single question yet. What was my involvement with ONI? Why am I stealing the drive core? You helped me. You deserve answers. Ask anything you wish. kenshin 02-16-2010 03:46 PM "tell me whats happening then, why we transporting this? why is oni after us and who the hell are you really?" lance asked wiping the blood off his neck and clothes NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:03 PM Clark: Ill start from the beginning. My name is Doctor Clark Novak. I have been all around the UNSC...most notably HIGHCOM and then ONI. I was a cybernetics consultant before I took service aboard a ship named The Dreadhawk under the command of one Fleet Admiral Preston Vernette. I was tasked is doing some rather...unusual work. Nothing pleasant. I was part of a team of 12 scientists; 4 cyberneticists, including myself, and 8 surgeons of varying specialties. We were kept in the dark mostly, working on varying technology and studying varying lifeforms...primarily the Brutes. I soon found out why. Vernette was trying to use our SPARTAN program on one of those damned Brutes. I voiced my objections and was met with a lot of hostility. I decided to finish my work then get the fuck out of there. Vernette knew people had issues on this so nobody worked together, everyone was compartmentalized so nobody could share any information with anyone else. My responsibility was the weapon designs. Vernette created a Brute...using a live specimen...who actually was excited about the procedure. Nobody knew his name...but he was code named SUBJECT Delta. We finished him, and he eventually enetered combat. I didn't care for it. I left the team and joined ONI, in an attempt to forget about that thing and my involvement in it. Clark: I joined ONI's special tasks and internal affairs division known as Section 0. I was posted on a classified ship known as The Cloak and Dagger. Things were going good...until Director Kavanagh was killed by the Covenant. A week later...The newly promoted Fleet Admiral James Forkes...appoints the now Admiral Preston Vernette to Director of Section 0. It's impossible to run... Clark: I decided to stay with Section 0...and I hated it. I left the UNSC and decided to go rogue. Before I left...I caught wind of a rather interesting invention...the Tantalus Drive Core...the thing in the back of this truck. Faster then the current drive cores, twice as small, and built completely from re-purposed Covenant technology. Shall I continue? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:41 PM "oh please do." lance said with growing interest NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:46 PM Clark: ONI wants it back for their own persona use...but I think these should be deployed across the fleet. I plan to retrofit a UNSC Frigate with it, test it, then inform the rest of the UNSC about it. ONI has its secrets, they need to start answering for them. So...are you still interested? If not...I can drop you off right here and we can go our separate ways. kenshin 02-16-2010 04:50 PM "let me fill you in on something. preston vernette turned me into a spartan made me kill my father, i dated his daughter, i died he revivied me amde me assisnate hundreds of people, gave me the ability to heal like this and then threw me in his personal hell. i am a fugitive." lance took a deep breath as he pulled out a bullet from his shoulder. "i'm in. i have nowhere else to go. you have my help." lance stated NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:52 PM Clark: Wow...that made my story look boring...you dated his daughter? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:53 PM "yes, and developed a friendship with delta." lance added NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:54 PM Clark: He wasn't designed to have friends... cubanpete24 02-16-2010 04:55 PM Eugene insert Eugene24 into the pelican's holo-disk slot. Eugene24: INTRUDER ALERT! INTRUDER ALER- Damn it. Doug24: Sup. Eugene24: Oh hey Doug, how's life Doug24: Been better. Eugene24: Good....Good. Eugene: I'm growing impatient. Eugene24: Oh YOUR growing impatient, well let me tell you this, I'm not a fan of being kidnapped. Now who are you? DOn't speak Kirk Korman? No he already made amends Preston Vernette? No, he wouldn't just steal me like that. Shella Lenner? No her voice is more masculine Eugene Korman? Rumors of you being alive, but you were cremated, must ask Are you Eugene Korman? kenshin 02-16-2010 04:56 PM lance laughed. "and i was designed to be vernettes plaything. things change." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 04:58 PM Clark: Well...I can make 100 jokes...but I wont... kenshin 02-16-2010 04:59 PM slade apeared with a smile "i will make the joke but a different time. apperently according to my scans we have longswords inbound." "shit." lance said NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:01 PM Clark: That has ONI written all over it! Time to speed things up! Clark floored the accelerator. Meanwhile: Vernette: Alright RTJ...lets get moving. Lets get to The Dead Ringer. kenshin 02-16-2010 05:03 PM lance looked grabbed his seat and scanned the air. "how far are we from our destination?" NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:05 PM Clark: About 10 miles... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:06 PM "what we have interms of heavy weapons here?" lance asks NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:10 PM Clark: Well...check the back of the truck...I think I saw a SPARTAN Laser back there... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:12 PM "well, well, this should be fun. firing a time delayed weapon from the back of a moving truck at the worlds best combat ship." lance laughed as he shouldered the weapon and waited for the longsword. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:15 PM Clark: I will try and keep the truck steady... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:16 PM lance saw the longsword make its aproach. "come on fucker line up the shot." he said as he aimed the gun slightly ahead of the longsword. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:17 PM Clark: Take the damn shot! kenshin 02-16-2010 05:19 PM "got ya" lance whispered as the spartan laser slammed the longsword head on and knokced it out of the sky NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:21 PM Clark: Well...we are in the clear for now...lets hope we can make it... kenshin 02-16-2010 05:24 PM lance laughed as he sat down. "i hope it lasts." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:36 PM Clark: In any case Lance...you have proven yourself quite useful. Tell me...you said you were a fugitive. Why is that? What did you do? kenshin 02-16-2010 05:39 PM "attempted assisnation of preston vernette." lance said with a stern look NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:41 PM Clark: You're a fugitive...so I assume you failed. kenshin 02-16-2010 05:42 PM "i didnt try. there were circumstances that forced me into that situation. i didnt kill him of my own will." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:47 PM Clark: Yeah...right...sure...who doesn't want to kill that guy! He meddles in other peoples business and kills you when you try to meddle in his business. The king of double standards! kenshin 02-16-2010 05:49 PM "hey your looking at the man who vernette fears." lance smiled NakedCrook 02-16-2010 05:57 PM Clark: Really? He fears you? Does he fear you? Clark shrugged. Clark: Perhaps he does...but if he feared you, he would have killed you. You said you died and he revived you. Why would he do that for someone he fears? would it not make more sense to leave you dead? I don't think he fears you...as much as he needs you for something...you just don't know it yet. Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:15 PM 2 more longswords decended near the truck and soon a third without an ONI stampped on them fell in behind the other 2 NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:17 PM Clark: We have more company Lance...take them out! Meanwhile: Delta: Sorry Max...you ain't leaving this ship for any reason...especially not for revenge. Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:18 PM max:ok *meanwhile* the two ONI longswords fired on the truck, but one got shot apart by the third NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:19 PM Clark: Interesting...we have three longswords...one of them SEEMS to be helping us...at this point though I say don;t trust anyone in a jet! Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:20 PM the other ONI longsword pulled a U turna an started shooting at the thrid, but wa out manuvered and gt shot down aswell NakedCrook 02-16-2010 06:26 PM Clark: Well...now to see if number 3 kills us... Killer 2 02-16-2010 06:28 PM the longsword continued circling above the truck 8one hour previous8 411:you people make no sense! person:im saying, help me, i need extra clothes ofr a date 411:go buy some! person:we dont use currency! 411:fuck this palce! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 08:32 PM Delta: Anyways Max...I am free for the next little while...you got any plans? Killer 2 02-16-2010 08:52 PM max:im not going on a date! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 09:13 PM Delta laughed. Delta: Did I say that? I don't think I did! Why would you assume that? Killer 2 02-16-2010 09:42 PM max:that is a popular pickup line! NakedCrook 02-16-2010 09:46 PM Delta: Go figure. Your not my type anyways... Killer 2 02-16-2010 09:50 PM max:but ywea i have no plans Grunt Hive Mind 02-16-2010 09:54 PM Slomyg donned a cape and walked to his hanger. Might as well save some lives. I AM a doctor after all. Slomyg stepped into his ship. Now what is an interesting place to go to....earth, nah.... Slomyges finger drifted along a chart displaying all of the planets. Jupiter would be a nice change of pace... there are some small setelments and not very many good doctors...Ah, Why not. Slomyges small ship took off containing all needed for healing. Plus some of his own ¨Unique¨ equipment. NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:00 PM Delta: Well...its up to you...I cannot really think of much to do...kinda dumb when you think about it. Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:16 PM max:i cant do anything.. KillerRabbit213 02-16-2010 10:19 PM Mess hall dude:Damn lady where do you put all that food you ate NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:19 PM Delta: Firing range is out of the question. You can't leave the ship. Delta laughed. Delta: You have condemned yourself to boredom Max. Good work. Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:26 PM max:and i cant use unsc equipment so no solitare using UNSC cards... NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:34 PM Delta: Screw it...lets hit the firing range...Vernette doesn't need to know...just don't get me in trouble! kenshin 02-16-2010 10:37 PM lace aimed the spartan laser at one of the longswords. "sorry it was malfunctioning. how old is this thing?" lance asked as the laser fired NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:40 PM Delta looked at max. Before she could give her response, he was interrupted over the comm. Officer: hey Delta...your needed on the bridge. Quickly... Delta: I am on my way. Delta looked at Max. Delta: lets go see whats going on. Meanwhile: Clark: Its seen some tough times... Killer 2 02-16-2010 10:41 PM the non ONI longsword dodged the shot over radio:truck, do not fire, repeat do NOT fire, we are an escort over kenshin 02-16-2010 10:42 PM lance aimed at the longsword "i think their bullshitting us." lance said sternly NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:47 PM Clark: I can't say...this seems suspect. Keep the trigger on them...we will let them tag along for now. Its not like if they find where I am hiding the frigate they will be able to stop us. We can launch that ship and speed away with the drive core. Keep an eye on them. Blast em if you think its necessary. Meanwhile: Delta walked onto the bridge. Delta: What is it? Officer: Well...three of our longsword have been shot down over Northern Canada. Delta: By who? Officer: You don't know...do you? Delta: No... Officer: Ohhh...damn...well...in short...ONI is trying to recover a valuable piece of equipment stolen by terrorists. We sent a team to intercept the equipment and they failed to recover it. Your AI should know the details. Delta: What are we trying to recover? Officer: A new prototype drive core. its called The Tantalus Drive Core. Delta: Never mind...I know exactly whats going on now. I have been briefed on the current status of Project Tantalus. I am aware it has been stolen. It must be recovered at all costs. Prepare more teams to intercept. kenshin 02-16-2010 10:52 PM lance nodded. and slade apeared next to the men "5 teams odst's have been dispatched from the cloak and dagger to intercept our course." lance's jaw dropped "no way." lance said with disbelief "its true unless we can get out of sight of the ship we will be intercepted inaproximetly 15 minutes" slade replied NakedCrook 02-16-2010 10:55 PM Officer: We have dispatched more teams to try and cut them off in Pelicans. Delta: Once the Tantalus has been recovered, it is to be brought back to the Cloak and Dagger for immediate installation. Inform those ODSTs that the Tantalus must be recovered, no damage is to come to it! Meanwhile: Clark: Vernette is involved...he wants his drive core back... kenshin 02-16-2010 11:01 PM "i cant seem to escape him. we gotta get out of here and make them lose our trail else we get stuck between a rock and vernette." lance said still aiming at the longswords slade nodded his head. "i've exacuted a worm virus that i place that temporarily knocks the communications with all out going aircraft. we have half an hour. we can either lose them or do our best to engage them. its your choice." lance shook his head. "we gotta lose them we cant fight off 50 odsts, at l;east in a half hour." NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:06 PM Clark: We are almost in the green zone. Another mile and we should be safe! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:06 PM "shit." lance saw one of the pelicans close in Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:11 PM longsword:ive got you covered, just get he packdge to the shp! the longsword started chasing the pelicans kenshin 02-16-2010 11:12 PM lance looked at clark "i dont know what to think, just drive." Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:13 PM the long sword opened fire on the pelican NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:16 PM Clark: That's what I'm doing! Meanwhile: One of the ODST teams contacted the Cloak and Dagger. ODST: Cloak and Dagger...we are under fire from an unmarked Longsword! Delta: Can you evade? ODST: Negative! Delta began to think. Delta: How sensitive are the targeting sensors on this ship? Tactical Officer: Pretty sensitive... Delta: Can we hit a speeding Longsword? Tactical Officer: From orbit...perhaps...in ELO...absolutely! Delta: Take the ship into ELO! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:18 PM lance looked at clark 'god dammit cant this thing go faster?!" Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:19 PM the pelican exploded and the long sword continued heading for the green zone NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:21 PM Officer: ELO achieved...we have entered the lower atmosphere. Delta: Find the rogue Longsword...swat it from the sky with Archers. Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:30 PM the long sword plumeted o the ground as archers hit theengines NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:37 PM Officer: The Longsword is down! Delta: Tell the remaining Pelicans to focus on recovering the Tantalus Drive Core! Delta looked over at Max. Delta: This reminds me of the good old days...when instead of doing the killing myself...I ordered my crew to do it for me! Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:40 PM max:alot funer pulling the trigger yourself *meanwhile* 411 stepped out of the downed longsword and headed for te green zone (keep your nipple on ill xplain..) NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:43 PM Delta: I agree...that's why I don't miss this kind of combat. Its more personal killing someone with your bare hands. Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:45 PM max:mmhmmmm... god im bored NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:48 PM Delta: Look...I'll tell you what...if the need arises for me to get off my ass and actually do something...I will take you with me, we can go and kick some ass like old times? Is that fair enough? Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:52 PM max:ye sir! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:55 PM "how much longer?" lance asked nervously NakedCrook 02-16-2010 11:56 PM Delta laughed. Delta: its a cold day in hell when a human calls a Brute sir. Meanwhile: Clark: See that mountain range up ahead? There is a tunnel leading to an underground highway. If we get in there...we are same from any air attacks! kenshin 02-16-2010 11:57 PM lance saw the mountain tunnel was no more than a quarter mile away (longest mile ever) Killer 2 02-16-2010 11:58 PM 411 started running towards te "green zone" NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:02 AM Clark: I can smell safety from here! The truck entered the tunnel and drove underground. Clark: Safe...at last. Clark slowed the truck down. Clark: Now they need to chase us on the ground...their ships are useless. I am curious though...who was that trying to help us? kenshin 02-17-2010 12:03 AM "beats me. lets not question it. we gotta get this thing on the move. i can handle an ground resistance we encounter." lance said as he slung his rifle on his back Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:06 AM 411 entered the tujnnel, seeing the truck in the distance 411:hey wait up! kenshin 02-17-2010 12:07 AM lance looked at 411 and leveled his rifle squeezing off a burst above his head. "on the ground!!" lance yelled Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:09 AM 411 lyed down on the ground, hands on his head NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:10 AM Clark: That was easy... kenshin 02-17-2010 12:10 AM (btw what is 411?) lance stpped on 411's back and pointed the rifle at his head "who are you?"

Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:15 AM 411 looked at clarc 411:kowaski said he was working ith you NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:18 AM (Do I know Kowalski?) Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:20 AM (yesh) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:23 AM Clark: Its alright Lance...hes good. Let him go. Tell me...411 was it? How do you know Kowalski? Meanwhile: Officer: The ODST teams report that the Drive Core has been taken underground. Delta: Deploy some Warthogs for immediate use! Delta looked at Max. Delta: Something tells me I may have to get off my ass sooner or later and go down there personally. Killer 2 02-17-2010 12:25 AM 411:i met him on a rock under the "equal" goverment of cole NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:36 AM Clark: Cole? He ain't getting shit! The Tantalus Drive Core is mine! Killer 2 02-17-2010 08:57 AM 411:i know, kowaski wanted off that rock, so i brought him in my longsword but he died in the crash kenshin 02-17-2010 10:29 AM lance looked at the entrance and rigged it to explode if anything passed it "i hate to cut your conversation short, but its only a matter of time before we have warthogs on our ass." NakedCrook 02-17-2010 12:46 PM Clark: Right...let's keep going. Everyone back In the truck. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:06 PM Soap: Well Kirk already "cleared air" remember the report Admiral Forkes filed saying Kirk stole his AI then brought it back *meanwhile* Eugene24: Ok, so what do you want Chubby-Cheeks Eugene: There are people out there who need to be brought to justice. And it's my duty to kill them before they get out of hand. Eugene24: Oh really? Well Let me just ellaborate. Says here you had a list, a "Grocery List" of people on it, Most of them being dead to start with, can you confirm this, Doug24? Doug24: Ummmmmm maybe. Eugene24: I'll take this as a yes. Show me the list Eugene. Eugene: Hell no! Eugene24: You got me for answers, and answers are what I'll give you. Eugene reluctantly pulled out a folded up piece of paper and dropped it on the dashboard of the pelican. Eugene24: Alrighty, so this....List, it contains people you have, and want to kill. Ned and Dennis Had it coming. Otto........Otto Goldberg. Yes I know him. What did he do? Bring Ned back to life? Wait... Eugene: He brought me back. Eugene24: Brought you back? to life? Eugene: So-so, it was an....unholy project. so to speak. Eugene24: *sigh* Ok Eugene, your motives have gone from unclear to just plain ridiculous! It would actually be more logical to keep him alive! He's like...one of the only people to perfect bringing back the dead! Eugene: Look at you talk! You would've done the same! Eugene24: Oh really? I am you, and so far...I don't have any motives to kill anyone. My only thought of violence is socking Shella Lenner in the face but....I'm past that, after all. I was dead. Eugene: You don't know a thing about me. Eugene24 laughed. Eugene24: Either your stupid, or messed up in the head. March 15th, 2535 The date the covenant almost discovred Earth. Thanks to some Spartan named Griffy Fivoone Cheeky bastard thought he could get away with it if he told a small group of covenant where Earth was. A small town called New Jenkins NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:19 PM (Griffy? A Spartan named Griffy? LOL) Vernette: Well...Kirk is the next target...so...we are going to head off to The Dead Ringer...we are going to sneak on, stay hidden, and wait for Mr. Eugene Korman to pop up. When he appears...we we will take him out. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:29 PM (Notice the Fiv-o-one) Eugene24: A 16 year old child sweeps the floors of an underground shelter, 20 feet below the ground. then he hears the ground tremble with anger, followed by screaming and gunfire, The little boy stayed in fetal position in a corner of the shelter. After the gunfire ceased, The little 16 year old climbed vigorously out of the shelter, he looked over and saw cripsy black husks of what used to be people surrounding the manhole entrance to the shelter. He enters his house and sees his family, on the ground. Murdered. Eugene punched the wall of the pelican, making his knuckles bleed. Eugene: ENOUGH! He clenched his fists. Eugene: Griffy Fioone eh? Where is he. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:32 PM Vernette: Get your asses to the hanger bay. I will join you shortly. Vernette walked out of the armory. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:37 PM Arnie: Hey Vernette, I was thinkin, How about, we go along with the whole...kidnapping Kirk idea. after some thought, it ought to drive Eugene crazy! With noone to kill, He'll have nothing to do but come to us! NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:44 PM Vernette: Exactly what I was thinking...perhaps you do have a future in the military... cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:55 PM Arnie: I just want to take this sucker out. *meanwhile* Eugene24: I don't know, You'll have to look into the UNSC database. Eugene: Very well then, I'll wait. Till then, I think I owe Kirk a visit. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 08:57 PM Vernette: Alright...get to the hanger...I will be there in a few moments! cubanpete24 02-17-2010 08:59 PM (By the by, I'm going to have Eugene show up late, like right after you kidnap Kirk) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:04 PM (Okie Dokie) Vernette walked out of the armory. He walked onto the bridge. Vernette: D, listen up. RTJ and I are going to go and pay Kirk Korman another courtesy call. However, we are going to capture him and bring him back here for...fun. Delta: Fun? Why don't you just kill the prick? Vernette: Tempting...but not necessary at this juncture. I need you to keep an eye on things here. If I understand correctly, you are currently chasing down Mr. Novak? Delta: Yes...we are hot on his trail. He has the Tantalus on the move...we are closing in on him! Vernette: Get that damn drive core back, kill with impunity! Delta: Will do! Vernette grabbed a shotgun from the Bridge weapons locker and headed to the hanger bay. Vernette: Alright MacTavish...is your team set? cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:20 PM Soap: Yep. Let's go NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:27 PM Vernette: Perfect. Vernette slung the shotgun's equipment strap around his shoulder. He checked the ammo capacity on his pistol. He walked into the Vulture and began the pre-ignition sequence. Vernette: Basically...how this is going to break down is I am going to get you guys on board The Dead Ringer undetected. Your job is to get Kirk and bring him back to The Vulture, unconscious if necessary. I hope you will do better here then you did in Brazil. I don't think The Dead Ringer crew will appreciate us stealing their CO. cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:36 PM Soap: Alrighty the- wait a sec.... Soap grinned under his helmet Soap: Oh yes....PERFECT! Look, Vernette, if this Eugene character needs to think Kirk is dead, then I'm thinking, that We nab one of Kirk's clones from their cloning tubes, kshoot it a few times in the chest, then plop it over Kirk's desk, then tranq the real Kirk. This will ensure complete success! NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:43 PM Vernette: Not a bad idea... Vernette began to think. (Is Jermaine with us) cubanpete24 02-17-2010 09:44 PM (No he's on the ship.) NakedCrook 02-17-2010 09:51 PM (Alright) Vernette: Listen up...cause I will only say this once. We are 5 minutes away from the Dead Ringer...so this plan needs to be fully understood the first time. We are going to split up. Jerome, take Arnie and paul. Find Admiral Korman and drag his sorry ass back to the Vulture. MacTavish...you and I are going to head to the cloning labs, grab a Kirk Korman off the shelf...shoot him a few times...then dump him in the hallways some where near the hanger...somewhere where Eugene will find him easily. We all meet back at the Vulture...and jet off! Clear? cubanpete24 02-17-2010 10:09 PM Kirk looked up from his terminal, He saw a counter he installed right above his space view window. 3 hours since last unexpected visit.. Kirk Shrugged as he then looked back onto his terminal. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:18 PM The Vulture dropped out of Slipspace near the Dead Ringer. Vernette activated the Stealth systems. Vernette: Lets hope the Stealth on this ship holds out long enough. One moment...I am going to try and open the hanger bay doors...without docking clearance... Killer 2 02-17-2010 10:19 PM 411:ok, lets go NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:24 PM Clark jumped back into the truck. Lance and 411 hopped into the back and the Truck continued to drive. Clark: So...whats your stake in this 411? Killer 2 02-17-2010 10:44 PM 411:i need resources NakedCrook 02-17-2010 10:47 PM Clark: For what? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:01 PM 411:building, steel, titanium etc. etc. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:02 PM Clark: What are you building? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:04 PM 411:mobile base, nothing big NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:07 PM Clark: Whats this base for? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:10 PM 411:what are youig going to do with this driver core? where will it be at all times? you are asking questions that are unsafe for me NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:14 PM Clark: I plan to retrofit the drive core onto a stolen UNSC Frigate. Now...share some more information with me! Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:16 PM 411:fine, i plan to use the base as a weapons lab, armoury and outfit it with a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive. NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:28 PM Clark laughed. Clark: You know...why don't we join forces 411...combine our goals. Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:30 PM 411:i need a smaller more versitle ship, not a frigate NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:31 PM Clark: What would a small ship do against a ship like The Cloak and Dagger? Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:34 PM 411:never sid im going up agaisnt vernette, but i will be glad to keep doing.. buisness with you, while pursuing seperate goals NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:38 PM Clark: If there is one thing in life that I have learned its this. Vernette goes after everyone. He is like a rabid animal, he will attack anyone he sees for no reason...because he cannot control himself! He is a fucking deranged madman! If he doesn't like the paint job on your ship, he will blow it up with no consequences! You may not have a problem with Vernette, but he will find one with you. I am warning you...that's all... Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:41 PM 411:can we continue working toghether? i need more than titanium and steel, i need a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive, and it seems you want a frigate, and will be using your specail drive.... NakedCrook 02-17-2010 11:52 PM Clark: I have a frigate and a shaw fuikajaw slipspace drive core. I have one on the Frigate. Once it is removed, I can give it to you...but I need something in return. Killer 2 02-17-2010 11:53 PM 411:such as? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:00 AM Clark: Well...I will admit...you look a bit...weird. But you also look like you can handle a physical confrontation. Am I correct? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:01 AM 411:yes,im faster and stronger NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:02 AM Clark: Well...ONI has a certain person in their ranks. Very big, very strong. Not a SPARTAN but very SPARTAN like. Think you could handle him? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:03 AM 411:potentally NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:05 AM Clark: What do you mean? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:07 AM 411:i need more information to make an acccurate simulation NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:09 AM Clark: This guy is 9'7", 2250 lbs, Body fat index of 1%, very sharp teeth. He is a Brute. Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:10 AM 411:delta? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:10 AM Clark: Have you met him? Killer 2 02-18-2010 12:13 AM 411 nodded 411:i have run the simulation 999 times out of 1000 delta would beat we.. without his AI, with it? he would win 999999 out of 1000000 NakedCrook 02-18-2010 12:17 AM Clark: Fuck... Clark began to think. Clark: Alright...never mind about that...wait...he has an AI? Vernette is very reckless.. Clark slowed the truck down in front of a large door. He stepped out of the truck and pressed a few buttons and the large door opened. He stepped back into the truck. Clark: Alright...just stick around and help out and we will call it even. You can have the Drive core. Killer 2 02-18-2010 08:58 AM 411:ok kenshin 02-18-2010 10:35 AM lance was lost in thought this is fucking great, i'm in another goddamn rebelion. this is just waht i needed to keep delta off my trail he thought sarcastically i cant seem to avoid trouble with vernette, this is the nail in the coffin for my execution. i just wanted a room, how'd i get dragged into--nevermind. goddamn, i wish max was here she would know what to do. wait, clark said vernette kept me alive for, a purpose? he put me in prison for a purpose. he might have expected shuya's jail break and wanted it. he might have me here to flush out a rebelion! lance chuckled even vernette isnt that smart. well i guess next i see delta i'm screwed. i just hop it goes fast. lance sighed cubanpete24 02-18-2010 05:26 PM Jermaine stood in the armory, looking on the workbench where his smg lay. He just stared at it. He took out a cigar and lit it. Memory Voice: Step any closer and I'll blow her motherfucking brains out! Jermaine dropped his cigar on the ground. He then fell to the floor. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:32 PM Vernette grinned. He watched as the hanger bay door opened. The Vulture landed inside. Vernette: Alright...you guys know the plan. MacTavish, you and I will get the clone, Arnie, Jerome and Paul, you guys get Korman. I want this done quickly, quietly, and professionally. Vernette stood up and chuckled. Vernette: I preach about being quiet...and I bring a shotgun on a stealth mission. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:36 PM lance saw the frigate being torn apart by hundreds of men. "oh shit. this aint a small operation." he said with disbelief NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:38 PM Clark: She WILL be a beauty! We renamed her to "Lady Liberty"...an homage to her mission. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:45 PM "ah shes a beauty." lance said with awe in his voice NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:48 PM Clark: The first mission is to destroy the ONI Shipyards at Mercury...the birthplace of The Cloak and Dagger. That is a very specialized yard...without it...The Cloak and Dagger goes without repairs until it is rebuilt. Then we deal with The Cloak and Dagger. Leave it to ONI to name a ship after treachery, secrecy, and murder. kenshin 02-18-2010 05:52 PM "yea matches the captain." he laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 05:57 PM Clark: Well...we are now rushed. I have everyone working on just getting this thing in the air. With ONI hot on our asses...we are quickly running out of time! I need you to ensure nothing that is affiliated with ONI gets into the hanger bay. Meanwhile: Delta was sitting on the bridge. Delta: Alright...enough of this...no more games. I am personally hitting the surface to get that damn drive core back and carry it back here if necessary! Delta looked at one of the officers. Delta: My standing order is this; if it isn't ONI...shoot it down. Clear? Officer: Yeah...yeah... Delta stormed off the bridge and made his way to the hanger bay. Grunt Hive Mind 02-18-2010 06:02 PM Slomyg descended to the planets surface near a small community he visited annualy. cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:07 PM Jerome, Arnie, and Paul hopped out of the pelican and walked down the halls to Kirk's office. *meanwhile* Kirk was sitting in his office, still looking at his terminal. Kirk looked at the security camera feed of of the hallway outside his office. He saw 3 ODST's exiting an elevator. He saw one ODST taking the helmet off One ODST, and holding it above his head. The One ODST was jumping up and down trying to get his helmet back as the other one laughed. He then saw the third ODST waggling his finger at the ODST holding up the helmet. The ODST gave the one ODST his helmet back, and hey proceeded down the hall. A couple seconds later, Kirk Heard a knock on his door. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:09 PM Vernette: You know...I must admit...I am kind of creeped out going to the cloning facility... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:09 PM lance nodded "allright if you hear an explosion send reinforcements." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:12 PM Clark: Will do! If you need me, I will be on the bridge...of this semi-completed ship... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:13 PM (now to wait for delta) cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:20 PM Soap: Pish Posh, You've seen weirder things. *meanwhile* Kirk was still sitting at his desk. ODST voice: He didn't open the door....What do we do? ODST Voice: It's only been like.....5 seconds Tiny. ODST Voice: This isn't trick or treating, We don't wait 10 seconds, then move on the the next house. ODST Voice: I don't know what you got when you trick or treated, but you don't wait 10 seconds after you ring the doorbell, you'll get like, no candy! ODST: Shut up, we need to talk to Kirk. Kirk was rubbing his temples. Kirk reset the counter and stood up. He opened the door while Arnie, Paul, and Jerome were in deep conversation. kirk kicked Arnie to the wall, he then elbowed Jerome in the face, he then headbutt Paul. He brushed lint off his uniform. Kirk: Well, this was disappointing. Jerome got up and charged at Kirk. Kirk kneed Jerome in the stomach. Arnie went up behind Kirk and had his arm wrapped around his neck Kirk grabbed a golf trophy from his shelf and smacked it against Arnie's head, knocking him down. Jerome got up, stumbling, he threw a very weak punch at at Kirk's chest, he then fell to the floor. Kirk sighed Kirk: What does Vernete want this time? NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:23 PM Vernette opened the door to the cloning labs. Vernette: Perhaps your... Vernette looked at the rows and rows of tubes filled with clones. He could see no end to the rows. Vernette: ...wrong...this is officially the weirdest thing I have seen... Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:33 PM 411:this is a mighty ship[.. cubanpete24 02-18-2010 06:35 PM Soap's eyes widened. Soap: I guess he takes this whole "Always have a clone when they're involved" very seriously. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:43 PM Delta entered the hanger bay and jumped into his Phantom. Delta: They are expecting ONI...not The Covenant... Delta started the pre-ignition sequence. kenshin 02-18-2010 06:47 PM lance picked reloaded his battle rifle. "his plan might actually work." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 06:55 PM Delta's Phantom landed outside the tunnel. he met up with several ODST teams about to enter the tunnel system. Delta: Whats the situation? ODST: We have regrouped, and we are about to storm the tunnel system. We have lots of heavy equipment. Delta looked over his shoulder and saw two ONI Scorpion tanks. He also saw several Warthogs. Delta: Alright...I am going to...assume command of this operation... The ODST's looked at each other. ODST: Taking orders from a Brute...this will be a new experience... Delta hopped into a Warthog. He revved the engine. Delta: You know it to be true! Alright...lets get this show on the road! Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:56 PM 411:yes, im just hanging around for the steel i need and the shaw fuikjaw drive... kenshin 02-18-2010 06:57 PM lance's hairs on the back of his neck stood up. "must be the cold." he said as he sat down Killer 2 02-18-2010 06:59 PM 411:dont look now, i havde a bad feeling also... kenshin 02-18-2010 07:02 PM lance looked at 411 as he heard his explosives go off. "shit. there moving in. grab a weapon we got company." lance said as he slung his battle rifle around his back and loaded an smg NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:03 PM Delta's Warthog sped down the highway tunnel system. Tyber: So priority one is getting the Tantalus back right? Delta: Correct! Tyber: What do we do with the henchman? Delta: We gun them down! Delta's warthog pulled yup to the large door. Delta: Someone get a charge on that door! an ODST planted charges on the door and destroyed the large door. (The explosion lance heard.) Delta: Everyone move in! kenshin 02-18-2010 07:08 PM "great! just what i needed!" lance yelled as he picked up a rocket launcher and emptied it's tubes NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:12 PM Delta: Watch out...rockets! Sniper teams take point! kenshin 02-18-2010 07:15 PM a sniper round richocheted off the weapons locker behnd lance "you can take an eye out with that!" he yelled firing his battle rifle with deadly accuracy NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:17 PM Tyber: Delta...did you hear that? Delta: I wish I didn't... Delta activated an incendiary grenade. He took aim for a fueling station. kenshin 02-18-2010 07:25 PM lance saw delta prime the grenade sorry delta lance shot the grenade still in delta's hands NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:36 PM The grenade set Delta's arm on fire. Delta: Aww shit! Delta patted his arm out. Delta: And that's why I hate Grenades... Delta drew his hammer and held it in his hand. He activated it. Delta: This is what I like... kenshin 02-18-2010 07:51 PM lances rifle sang out and knocked odst's down with every shot until a warthog mounted machingun was aimed at him "aw fuck." he said leaping back as it chirped all around him NakedCrook 02-18-2010 07:54 PM ODST: Press forward! Delta nodded. He charged forward, hammer in hand, and began to swing through the resistance between him and the Frigate. kenshin 02-18-2010 07:58 PM lance fired his smg at the gunner, killing him, and hopped on the gun. mowing down any reinforcements in the tunnel NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:03 PM Delta saw Lance hop on the gunner. He charged at the Warthog and flipped it over, knocking Lance onto the ground. Delta: Didn't you tell me less then two hours ago that you were going to settle down for a new life? Delta pressed the sledge part of his hammer into Lance's chest, pinning him to the ground. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:05 PM "apperently growing up in war means you come back to it one way or another." lance said as he struggled to move away NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:08 PM Delta: Why don't you tell me what the story with that Frigate is...and I will let you live long enough to drown in your own blood! kenshin 02-18-2010 08:27 PM "oh delta i would think by now you would have learned. dont give me to much time." lance smiled as a small bundle of c-4 exploded on delta's leg knocking him off balance as lance got up and ran towards clarks defensive line. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:28 PM Delta stood up. He snarled and chased Lance to Clark's defensive line. Delta: Get back here you little worm. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:31 PM "worms dont move this fast." lance said as he and delta ducked under a swinging piece of ship battle armor that swept away a quarter of the odsts and one of the tanks "that woulda killed even you delta. you should thank me for running." he said as he started running again NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:32 PM Delta: Takes more then that to kill me! Barrabus took aim with his spiked and shot several rounds into Lance's leg. kenshin 02-18-2010 08:47 PM lance yelped and fell down. "i heal remember?" he said as he pulled out the spikes and aimed his smg at delta "i havent shot at you i'm not fighting you. dont make me. i dont want to hurt a friend." he said "i dont shoot people i trust. please dont make me" *9 years ago* lance loaded his shotgun with his final shells "goddamn i'm surrounded." lance said clutching at his bleeding side "this is fucking beautiful." he fired another round at the one of the insurrectionist flanking him. "come on you sons of bitches!" lance yelled at the insurrectionists moving towards him "i dont want to kill you slade! i dont want to fight you!" lance yelled a out "but you have been warned by scott himself to not interefere with our plans under pain of death." slade yelled back "you chased me down! am i supposed to lay down and die? i dont wanna kill you we grew up together! dont force me too!" lance replied "your a traitor, sure our childhood was together but that was when we were on the same side. but you have betrayed our cause. you have to die!" slade said as he closed in NakedCrook 02-18-2010 08:54 PM (Wasn't Lance part of the insurrection during Reach? if so...based on the current time, that was only two years ago. Unless he rejoined and you have this planned out.) Delta stopped. He aimed at Lance. He glared at Lance in silence. Delta: My instincts are telling me to put a slug right into your head...to remove your head right from your torso...hell...even Tye is telling me take your head off... Delta holstered his weapon. He extended his hand to help Lance to his feet. Delta: I have watched too many friends die...I have lost more friends then I have left... kenshin 02-18-2010 08:59 PM (if thats the case than technically lance couldnt have been in reach. he left the insurrectionists after tim died which was before reach. so i fucked up timewise but meh w/e) lance took delta's hand and stood up "same here delta." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:02 PM (Well lance is already in Reach, so I guess that's how it boils down. We have not finished Reach, we can always kill Tim if you wanted to) Delta: What the hell are you doing here? Do you even have any idea what you are doing? kenshin 02-18-2010 09:07 PM "to tell the truth. i am just doing this for a room." lance says with a laugh. but hit the floor when an explosion hits nearby NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:15 PM Delta knelt down to shield himself from the explosion. Delta: A room? Your homeless? Delta chuckled. Delta: Let me explain something to you. I am here to recover something for Vernette; a piece of equipment that was stolen a month ago. Tell you what, if you lend me a hand, it could go a very long way in getting Vernette's attention off of you. Delta stopped. Delta: I realize you are...working on the wrong side here, by fighting ONI and such...but I have an excellent idea...if you are interested in getting back on the UNSC's good side that is. Its your choice. Killer 2 02-18-2010 09:19 PM 411 silently slipped away into the unfinished ship NakedCrook 02-18-2010 09:29 PM Clark was yelling over the intercom. Clark: keep those ONI assholes away from the ship! Killer 2 02-18-2010 09:33 PM 411 headed towards the transport with the shaw fuikjawa kenshin 02-18-2010 10:05 PM lance was torn "i'll get it back on one condition. you dont hurt their leader. i'll get the drive back hell i'll hand deliver it. just dont touch clark." lance said with his hand outstreched "do we have an accord?" NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:16 PM Delta: What is so special about their leader? Killer 2 02-18-2010 10:19 PM 411 asaw the ODSTs breaking through the lines 411:now... where is my titainuim steel.....\ 411 spotted another truck he hitched it up 411:hope this goes fast enough.... 411 started driving out the back kenshin 02-18-2010 10:19 PM "he doesnt deserve to die. after this maybe leave him on a deserted planet somewhere but not death." lance said as he lead delta through to the ship. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:27 PM Delta: Alright...I will spare the leader...all I want is the drive core. Tyber: Delta...how are you going to get the Drive core off the ship? That thing is massive? It is at least 3 tons! Delta: I'm thinking... Delta began to think. He looked at Lance. Delta: To be honest Lance...I will spare him...but Vernette might want him dead...I am kinda stuck on this... Killer 2 02-18-2010 10:29 PM 411 managded to eescape the dock without being seen 411:ok now to find a good contrustion site.... kenshin 02-18-2010 10:35 PM lance shot one of the rebels guarding the drive core. "well its your decision." lance said as he sized the core up "this things heavy. at least three tons. give me a minute though and i can whip up a pelican." lance said with a determined look as he ran out to the unfinished hangar NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:40 PM Tyber: Begin disconnecting the drive core from the auxiliary power matrix and be sure decouple the primary power matrix from the secondary spanners. Delta stood still and looked at the core. Delta: What the fuck are you talking about Tye! Speak English! Tyber: Pull the big yellow wire from the wall. Then cut the Big blue wire. Delta: Oh...that's easy! kenshin 02-18-2010 10:46 PM lance grabbed the engineer working in the pelican "peekaboo" he said as he snapped his neck and hopped in the pilots seat and flew it to delta dodgin falling and swingin machinary and steel. NakedCrook 02-18-2010 10:51 PM Delta looked out the side of the engineering deck and Saw Lance in the Pelican. he contacted Lance on the comm. Delta: Lance... this thing is REALLY heavy...flying a Pelican is going to be very tricky...especially with all this junk floating around. Bring the Pelican closer, I will strap the Drive Core onto the back and I will take it from there. Once I get this thing back to The Cloak and Dagger...I can call it a day...and you can do your own thing. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:00 PM lance lowered the pelican and jumped down to help delta. "i'm going back to the cloak and dagger. i have to face vernette. i deserve whatever punish ment he decides to dish out. i thought about. he might kill me. but i mean no matter what i'm a soldier born and bred and like you said i'm homeless, where would i go?" lance said as he cliked the lock on the core in place "all done lets go." lance said as he hopped in teh pelican NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:04 PM Delta: Well...to be honest...I think Vernette was overacting. Delta paused. Delta: 65. That's how many times he has been shot. On average...he gets shot... Tyber: about 1.0317 times a year. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:05 PM "and how many of those people are still alive?" lance said as delta stepped in the pilot seat NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:10 PM Delta: Minus you? One. Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:13 PM 411 found what lookd like a half deystroyed ship yard 411:perfect, ill have salvadge kenshin 02-18-2010 11:13 PM "exactly. and i'm probably the only one who is willing to face justice. just dont worry you were a friend when i needed delta thank you." lance said as he sat back NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:16 PM Delta: Well...Vernette may surprise you Lance. However...he is not on board right now. He is currently on a mission so you wont have to face justice right away. I don't know what your going to do...but you might as well try and reconcile with Max. Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:19 PM 411 walked into the shipyards office and layed out a ship plan on the table 411:shaw fuijkawa drive, check, steel titanium, check, that leaves... 4 archer missle pods,engines nav computer and life support kenshin 02-18-2010 11:21 PM lance smiled "i doubt she'll take me back. but i guess its worth a try." lance said with a resigned sigh NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:23 PM Delta: Max has been rather bitchy lately anyways. She is acting very defensive. I told her that I had a bit of free time...and she thought I was dishing out a pickup line. So she immediately shoots me down...pretty weird if you ask me. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:25 PM "what the fact that she shot you down or the fact she's defensive?" lance laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:28 PM Delta: That she shot me down... Delta laughed. Delta: I am joking. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:29 PM lance laughed "i dont know maybe next time." lance laughed NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:36 PM The Pelican landed in the Cloak and Dagger hanger bay. Delta stepped out. Delta: Well Lance...you might as well go and see how Max is doing. With Vernette gone, and Hayes in the medical bay...I have been forced to run the show...so I have bridge duty... Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:38 PM max was using a ping-pong paddla string thingy max:153, 154, 155, 156 cubanpete24 02-18-2010 11:38 PM Kirk: So, Why're you here, here to kill me? tranq me? Does it involve Eugene? Jerome rubbed the bridge of his nose. Jerome: Yeah, We were thinking of knocking you out, taking you to the cloak and Dagger to hide you, then Soap and Vernette would come here with one of your clones, shoot it and rough it up. then drop it to the floor. Once Eugene comes, he'll have noone to kill, and we'll see what he does from there. Kirk: Really? Like no way! I planned on doing the same thing, but apparently Vernette didn't want to hear it, so I had to improvise. Alrighty then let's go. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:39 PM "good luck delta." lance said as he walked to max's room Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:41 PM max:163, 164 fuck! maxes count was interupted by a knock on her door max:its unlocked... NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:41 PM Vernette: MacTavish...look at this...the manifest shows exactly 312 clones...ready for deployment. Vernette continued reading the terminal. Vernette: Holy crap...I cannot believe this...I am utterly shocked! Vernette looked at MacTavish. Vernette: Just don't stand there...shoot something! kenshin 02-18-2010 11:44 PM lance walked in "hey max. i'm..uh....back i guess.." lance said with a nervous smile Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:46 PM max narrowed her eyes max:you have some nerve coming back here, get out cubanpete24 02-18-2010 11:47 PM Soap pryed open a cryo tube. Kirk's clone stumbled out. Kirk: I am inferior to the almighty Kirk Korman. I am but a mere clone I need help to wash my anus. Will you be my friend? Soap took out his automag and shot it, in Kirk's forehead. Soap was speachless as he picked up the body and slung it over his shoulder. Soap: Alright let's go. Soap's comm fuzzed. Jerome: Ey Sarge? Soap: What is it. Jerome: We have Kirk. Soap: Good. Jerome: But.....When we tried to knock him out....He kicked our asses, we explained our plan to him..... He's fine with it. Soap: Well that's good, I'll inform Vernette. kenshin 02-18-2010 11:47 PM "listen max. just hear me out." NakedCrook 02-18-2010 11:50 PM Vernette: Explain what? Killer 2 02-18-2010 11:56 PM max:yea i know "he wuz gonna blow up da ship!" story, wanna know what i say? bullshit! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:01 AM "so you dont believe me? wouldnt you have done the same? would you have made 600+ people die because your were to squeamish to pull the trigger? max you gotta understand. i came back regardless of what happens t face justice. regardless of the reasons what i did was stupid. and i deserve everybit of your anger. i just wish you would understand." Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:04 AM max:lance, you NEVER thought about, killing lyons, disarming the ombs or getting the deonator? i dont belive you, now get the fuck out (have lance like push max against thevwall in anger of frustration) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:06 AM (domestic violence!) kenshin 02-19-2010 12:09 AM lance grabbed max and held her against the wall "lets get one thing straight. i'm not leaving. i wont until i at least have your forgive ness. another thing if i would have tried any of that shuya would have stopped me before i could accomplish anything." cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:12 AM Soap: They captured Kirk, he was...awake needless to say, but they explained our plan to him, all wee need to do is drop off this body and get out of here. Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:13 AM max winced as lance slammed her againt the wall max:get away from me! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:14 AM lance let her go and sat on her bed "i'm accomplishing nothing." he sighed shaking his head Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:17 AM max:GET OUT! NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:17 AM Vernette: Whatever...this mission is fucked up enough...I personally do not care anymore... kenshin 02-19-2010 12:18 AM "MAX! i'm not leaving! we have to work this out!" lance yelled Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:22 AM max: im NOT FORGIVING YOU, get it through your thick head! kenshin 02-19-2010 12:23 AM "i'm a soldier i dont give up very easily!!" lance yelled back NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:24 AM Delta was sitting on the bridge, watching the events on the security monitor. Delta: Damn...shes pissed...reminds me of that time when... Tyber: Keep it to yourself! cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:25 AM There were footsteps outside Max's quarters They were fast and stomping with every step. *meanwhile* Soap and Vernette exited the Cloning facility and made their way to Kirk's office, Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:27 AM max:whats that? max looked at her door kenshin 02-19-2010 12:28 AM lance looked at the door "i dont know" cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:29 AM Harold stormed into Max's quarters, he looked at Lance. Within seconds, he stormed at Lance rasing his fist. (Dodge or take the punch, your choice) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 12:38 AM Vernette and MacTavish dropped the body in the office. Vernette looked at Mactavish. Vernette: One second... Vernette picked up a paper weight on Kirk's desk and dropped it on the dead clones face, bloodying the face. Vernette: it looks like there was a struggle. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 12:40 AM Soap: One more second.... Soap ripped off a sticky note from Kirk's desk, with a oen, he scribbled something onto the note. First- :P kenshin 02-19-2010 12:45 AM lance dodged the puch and grabbed harold and slammed him in the wall "what the hell man?" he asked Killer 2 02-19-2010 12:47 AM max reached for a knife max:your a soilder eh lance? soilders are replaceable kenshin 02-19-2010 11:28 AM lance dropped harold and looked at max "why? why are you acting like this?" cubanpete24 02-19-2010 03:38 PM Harold hopped back up, he picked up a flower vase and smashed it on Lance's head. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 03:41 PM Tyber: Put an end to this before someone dies! Delta groaned. He stood up and walked down to Max's quarters. He barged in. Delta: What the hell is going on here!? Meanwhile: Vernette: Alright MacTavish...lets get the hell out of here before crispy shows up. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 04:03 PM Soap: Alright, get to the pelican, I'll drop the body off. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 04:05 PM Vernette: Splitting up could be a bad idea... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:32 PM Soap: Fine, then let's go. Soap walked out of tthe cloning facility and headed for Kirk's office. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:34 PM Vernette: You know...with Kirk out of his office...this could be a golden opportunity... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:36 PM Soap: For what? We've already updated our intel towards Kirk's research NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:37 PM Vernette: True...but what do we know about the person? His history? His past? Who is he? I am banking that he keeps some personal family records around... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 05:39 PM Soap: Alrighty then, why not. (Wait......I just remembered, Soap and Vernette were in Kirk's office to begin with Just ignore the walking in the halls part) NakedCrook 02-19-2010 05:45 PM (lol I also forgot...) Vernette sat down at the desk. He looked at the terminal and began to type. Vernette: Keep an eye on the door. Vernette reached into his pocket and pulled out a data chip. he inserted it into the side of the display. Vernette: This is for my own personal records. I like to keep tabs on EVERYONE. All the highest ranking people have some sort of PROTOCOL. Its a collection of files concerning one subject or another...Kirks PROTOCOL seems to be biogenetic and sociological research. From what I have observed from his work, it seems the most likely case...I could be wrong though. Mine is Tactical Espionage. Intel on everyone I have ever met, documenting their weakness, strengths, personal history, background, psychological profiles...basically...everything I ever need to defeat someone. I document peoples weaknesses! Vernette looked at MacTavish. Vernette: And in case you are wondering...I have documented you as well...to a full extent... Vernette looked back at the terminal. Vernette: Kirk's documentation is a stub...I need more information on him. Vernette grinned. Vernette: Jackpot... cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:35 PM ID: Korman, Kirk T. Sex: M Serial: 2442-EC Born: CLASSIFIED Address: 115 S. Canterbury rd. New Jenkins IL Ship(s): The Dead Ringer Occupation: CLASSIFIED Known Relatives: Natalie Korman-Deceased Geoff Korman-Deceased Eugene Korman-Deceased Megan Korman-Deceased Geoff Korman-Deceased Parents: Joshua Korman-Deceased Ellen Korman-Gourley-Deceased Orphan parents (optional) Data Corrupted Contacts File missing 404-error NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:38 PM Vernette: Partially complete files...but...I will do...for now. Vernette stood up. He took the data chip and then looked at MacTavish. Vernette: Alright, we are leaving. Lets get back to the Vulture and jet. Crispy should be here soon. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:42 PM Soap nodded and gripped the Data chip. They left Kirk's office and headed towards the vulture NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:45 PM Vernette and MacTavish stepped into the Vulture. Vernette sealed the rear hatch. He looked at Kirk. Vernette: Before you say it...I am not doing this to help you...I just don't like leaving dangerous situations in the hands of other people without direct supervision! cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:46 PM Kirk: But of course, did you leave my patsy? Soap: A what? Kirk: A clone NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:48 PM Vernette: We left one of them, yes. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:50 PM Kirk: Good, It'll be a while till Eugene finds out that that is a clone NakedCrook 02-19-2010 06:55 PM Vernette: Now we get back to The Cloak and Dagger...and wait for crispy to show up...then...we do what we need to do...its that simple. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 06:58 PM The vulture left the hangar bay. A couple seconds later, A pelican entered the hangerbay of the Dead Ringer. NakedCrook 02-19-2010 07:00 PM Vernette: That could be cripsy now...I think we should make a hasty escape before he sees us! Vernette activated the slip space drivecore. cubanpete24 02-19-2010 07:51 PM Eugene entered the Dead RInger, Once he was in, he hopped out and made his way to Kirk's office. Chuckling deviously to himself NakedCrook 02-19-2010 08:00 PM The Vulture dropped out of slip space near The Cloak and Dagger. Vernette landed the Vulture in the hanger bay and he stepped out. Vernette: Remember Kirk...this is my ship...I am always watching. The moment I get fed up with having you here, is the moment I cram you into an escape pod and I fire you into Loyalist Territory. Stay on my good side and mind your own business. MacTavish...take Kirk to deck 13...I know we have a few spare rooms down there. cubanpete24 02-20-2010 01:59 AM Soap: Right away. Soap looked at Kirk, he nodded, and Kirk followed Soap. They stepped into an elevator, it started Descend to deck 13 Soap: So, tell me about yourself Kirk. Kirk: What do you want to know Teabags. Soap: For the love of- Not all Brits like tea. Kirk: Strange, this one spartan I knew....I forgot his name, but he loved Tea, wonder where that fellow is now. Right, well what do you want to know. Soap: I dunno....uh...parents? Kirk: It's a touchy subject. My mother was a whore, and my father was a drunk. My father he.....murdered my mom when I was 7 years old He told me to keep quiet, and I did. It was until later that night, I stood from my little cot, and grabbed a a plastic bag, and killed my father in his sleep. Looking back, it may have been.....drastic. But it had to be done, men like him don't deserve to live. Soap tugged his collar. Soap: So....did you have orphan parents? Kirk: I ran away from home, and went to live with my grandmother for 8 years. She soonafter died from a heart attack. So there I was, at the age of 15, With barely any education, and nowhere to go. I was a street rat, but not for long, I lived in a cardboard box for about 2 days before I was sick of it. But then, my saving grace approached me, I saw a poster, looking for recruits in the UNSC. Anything was better then the life I currently had, so, I enlisted into the UNSC Acedemics Acadamy at the age of 15, That's where I met sweet sweet Natalie. Now Soldier, that I've answered your question, I ask that you answer mine. Soap: Shoot Kirk: What is your name. Soap: Lester MacTavish. Kirk: Lester MacTavish.....Very Well. The elevator stopped. Kirk: I'll go from here. Enjoy your day Lester. NakedCrook 02-20-2010 03:05 PM Vernette rubbed his eyes as he walked down the corridors of The Cloak and Dagger. Vernette: Why isn't anything simple anymore. I remember a time when a person died...they stayed dead...in a way...I am glad Otto is dead. I should bury that research...that's now how God intended... Vernette walked into the office. He sat down at his desk and put the data chip into him laptop. He began to download Kirk's personal information into his files. Vernette: Kirk's mentality doesn't help the situation. Constantly trying to rebuild his son...all the cloning, all the experiments... Killer 2 02-20-2010 04:02 PM max:things! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 04:04 PM Delta: Look...all of you people have to screw off for a second. Max...I have a few things to explain to you. Come with me... Killer 2 02-20-2010 04:47 PM max:ok NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:00 PM Delta and Max leave Max's room. Delta: I bet your very curious about why Lance is here right? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:01 PM max:no NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:04 PM Delta: Well..lets just pretend you said yes. Delta laughed. Delta: You see...Lance escaped from Cryo prison. He escaped because you blew up the containment cell...which allowed anyone to just walk in an pull him out. So that's kinda your fault. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:06 PM max:ok NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:10 PM Delta: So...he escaped, and joined some terrorist group. The said terrorist group was responsible for stealing a classified piece of ONI equipment a month back. Vernette and I have been chasing these guys for some time. We finally caught up with them and were about to recover the piece of equipment. I just led the assault on their base and I found Lance there. I was about to kill him...but I spared his life...because he offered to help me recover the piece of equipment. He was true to his word...and I guess he wants to turn himself in to Vernette. So...I brought him here...and Vernette is going to ultimately decide his fate. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:13 PM ax;ok, just get him out opf my sight! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:14 PM Delta: So I guess you really hate him eh? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:16 PM max:yes! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:16 PM Delta: Cause he tried to kill you father? Am I right? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:18 PM max:partialy NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:22 PM Delta laughed. Delta: Its my job to ensure his safety. God knows your father has more then his share of enemies. Its my job to be distrusting of everyone he meets. I have known your father for close to 30 years...that is a very long time...and I will tell you that it takes more then a few gunshot wounds to warrant his full wrath! Your father is not one to hold grudges over a few gunshot wounds. Your father values integrity above all else. Only when someone does a serious crime against society does your father hold a grudge. Your pissed over a disagreement! I suggest you bury it Max. Don't let yourself be consumed by petty hatred. Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:25 PM max:I do not want to see lance NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:26 PM Delta: Why not!? I want to know exactly why!? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:36 PM max:he beytrayed my trust, i do not like traitors NakedCrook 02-20-2010 05:41 PM Delta: Neither do I...but in the most technical sense...I am a traitor. Do you hate me? Killer 2 02-20-2010 05:59 PM max:i traitor towrds me delta... NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:04 PM Delta: Do you remember when we first met? Remember when I told you who I really was, what I really did? You thought I was the worst thing on two legs. You called me a monster. You were even willing to tell everyone else who I was, despite how much trouble it would cause me! You eventually came back an apologized to me, and I forgave you! Do you remember how bad you felt, how you pleaded with me? I want you to think back on that! Now...that is how Lance is feeling right now! Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:08 PM max started to think NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:12 PM Delta: Ultimately Max, if you want to hold a grudge against Lance for the rest of you life, its your choice. But that is a double standard Max. If you hold a grudge against Lance for the rest of your life, I would see you as nothing more then selfish! Delta paused. Delta: I don't believe you are a selfish person. Prove me right. Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:15 PM max looked at her room max:theyre really going at it arnt they? NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:16 PM Delta: And it's up to you to stop it! Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:19 PM max:i dont have a remote controll fo r harold! i dont know why he even punched lance! NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:22 PM Delta: I can handle Sergeant Forkes. He doesn't weigh very much, I can carry him. Delta paused. Delta: By the way...if you going to get laid again...let me know so I can avoid any mishaps! Delta nudged Max and laughed. Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:26 PM max frowned max:ok lets go NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:27 PM Delta: I sense you didn't like my joke... Killer 2 02-20-2010 06:29 PM max walked into her room max:STOP NakedCrook 02-20-2010 06:30 PM (This is where we need Cuban and/or Kenshin) cubanpete24 02-21-2010 12:05 AM Eugene entered Kirk's office, he saw that his golf trophy was bent, some of his picture frames were cracked, and Kirk's body. He picked up the sticky note scribbled with First- :P Eugene tightened his fist, crumbling the paper. Eugene: Vernette.... NakedCrook 02-21-2010 12:06 AM (Vernette is mocking Eugene. lol) cubanpete24 02-21-2010 12:09 AM (Yeah) Killer 2 02-21-2010 12:09 AM max struggled topull them apart max:stop it stop it stop it! (ignore me!)
