Jameel Walker:
(Jameel don't know jack about computers he's just
coming along to protect sweet, innocent, Caroline)
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: ((Corbin meet up
with Aerin and come here or what? *S*))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Sounds good to me.
*G* We starting off here IC, I'm assuming?))
Jameel Walker:
(Just say they all decided to meet here, it's like the usual jumping off point
for all the scenes in this story arc, so it makes sense to keep it that way.
Even if Pony-boy is new to the story)
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: ((*BITES*)) He moves
through the park to the meeting area, self assured and calm appearing, though
his nerves are tingling. Finally! Something to do! With computers!
Jameel Walker:
(yeah a little IC could go a long way. Having Aerin tell Corberino about his
program so Corbin will know how it works)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He's already waiting
there, trench coat settled over his shoulders over the white dress shirt and
slacks. A backpack sits on the bech he's standing next to, taking a drag off his
cigarette. The man looks like he hasn't slept in a long while...but who's
surprised by that, these days. The one thing he IS that's new is...calm.
Surprisingly, remarkably calm. Almost scary-calm. He looks around for Corbin as
he waits.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He gives a smile
and respectful nod, approaching him. "Evening, Aerin." Moving up to the bench
and remaining standing also.
Jameel Walker:
*Jameel comes walking towards the meeting point from deeper within the park.
He's not gonna provide anything outside of an intimidating presence so that the
group can work in peace but he's also always got his street-sweeper if things
get crazy. He nods to Aerin and Corbin when he sees them. He introduces himself
to Corbin as this is the first time they've met* Corbin right? I'm Jameel...nice
to meet ya, Mal said to thank you for whatever assistance you've come to offer.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He nods to Jameel.
"Good to meet you. Sure, I'm happy to help. Be nice to use the skill for
something important."
Jameel Walker:
*he nods* Carrie should be here soon..Mal lent me his keys *he jingles them in
his pocket* In case we gotta make a fast get away or sumthin. *when he says Mal
obviously he's talking about the Guardian Alpha Malcolm London. No disrespect
intended it's simply how most Bone Gnawers are*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods to Corbin as
he comes up, giving him a slight smile, and one to Jameel. "Corbin...Jameel.
Nice to see you both."
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: "You think they
would know we're looking up info?" He looks to Aerin. "Or are you um...hacking?"
Said very quietly.
Caroline Culligan: *And she makes her way through
the park towards the other. A wave and a smile w hen she gets closer.* Evening
all.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Perfect." He nods,
and looks to Corbin. "So, while we wait...how much experience with computers do
you have? You said you din't have intrusion experience...you're pretty
competnatn otherwise, though, right?"
Jameel Walker:
Ah da lady of the hour. *he says with a playful
laugh knowing Caroline will know he's only joking*
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He nods. "Yeah. I
can keyboard, I can research, work my way around the Net, do web pages, some
HTML coding. Pretty basic, but competent." A smile and curious nod to Caroline.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: "And I can
troubleshoot minor problems, things like that."
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: ((PHEW! I suddenly
had this horrible feeling I was mistaken and Corbin had no computer skills. *G*
I checked; he does.))
Caroline Culligan: *Looks around.* Lady, where?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "They would know, I'm
fairly sure," he says with a slight nod. "Technically, we're not hacking, we're
cracking, but same diff."
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He nods.
"Alright, it's gotten a bit more dangerous. No problem."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks to Caroline,
offering her a little smile. "Hey, Caroline. How are you?"
Jameel Walker:
Y'all ready to roll? Car's parked just up and out of the north gate..like 5
minute walk from here. *he laughs quietly at Caroline's response to his quip
about her arrival*
Caroline Culligan: I'm doing alright. *Smile.* how
are you? *a curious look at Corbin.* I don't think we've met, I'm Carrie
Culligan.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "I'm good when
everyone else is. We can talk on the way." He picks up the backpack, a drag of
smoke exhaled out his nose in twin darts, and makes to follow Jameel.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: "I'm ever ready.
Like the battery." He smiles warmly to Caroline. "I'm Corbin Justice, pleasure
to meet you, Carrie."
Caroline Culligan: Ready and raring to go, Jameel.
*falling into step beside him as they start towards the North gate.*
Jameel Walker:
Jeez dude...that was lame *he says to Corbin about his battery joke but he's
just being friendly. He starts off for the northern gate*
Michelle (Rauko) -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
((can+t help it.. first pokes*))
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: "I'm the king of bad
jokes and puns. I'm working my way up to one-liners." Following the others.
Michelle (Rauko) : *well the girl...
was meandering in as usualy just keeping away from people, yellowish red eyes
casted down* ((and if you need dd prod *nod* nicely!)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3] -> Michelle (Rauko) :
((S'up?))
Caroline Culligan: *her lips twitch at Corbin's
joke and Jameel's response.*
Michelle (Rauko) -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
((*snugz* trying to butt in ;) well... I was just gonna watch but Frown said I
could *nodnod* you?))
Jameel Walker:
*he spots Michelle as she's entering the park and the group is exiting* Hey
there girl...whatcha up to? *he asks her not bothering to speak quietly to her
he don't care if she's all timid that's not gonna hold him back from being
expressive*
Caroline Culligan: Hello Michelle, how are you?
*She asks with a warm smile.*
Michelle (Rauko) : *she does freeze in
place, the moment she realisise he is talking to her, and nearly right away as
usual lowers her gaze, before she... just moves enough to be heard* j...ju...justchecking...how..thingsareR..Sir
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks up and smiles
faintly as sees Michelle, nodding in her direction. "Hello, Michelle." He, on
the other hand, is quiet, and calm.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He looks to Michelle
curiously. He knows of her, of course. Thinks he might have *sort of* met her
once.
Michelle (Rauko) : *With a slight peer to
Caroline mumuring, adding*f,finethenkyou...you,yourself *peering to a moment to
Aerin, and giving a little tiny nod*
Jameel Walker:
*he laughs when she calls him sir, as a Bone Gnawer that's almost an insult, but
he doesn't take it that way* Come on girl...we're headin out. If you wanna come
along you can help me watch their backs. *obviously not expecting any danger
otherwise he wouldn't invite the timid girl along*
Caroline Culligan: I can't complain; no one would
listen and I can't find anything original to complain about. *a small grin.*
Michelle (Rauko) : *Another glance lightly
up, then faintly towards the others, mostly Aering and back to Jameel.. she
nods... a tiny bit*
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: Carrie: "Oh, that's
a good line." He chuckles.
Michelle (Rauko) : *aaaand blinking to
Caroline*
Jameel Walker:
*he resumes moving towards the car when he gets close he pulls out the keys and
uses the little remote to unlock the doors. The head and tail-lights flash twice
on a red 1998 Audi A4...obviously not dirt-poor Jameel's car. One might question
the sanity of the Guardian Alpha for letting the Gnawer borrow his car but now
is not the time for such discussions* Here it is...you wouldn't believe Mal only
has 1200 miles on this thing...says it sits in a garage 360 days a year
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He reaches an arm out
to Michelle, palm up, to take her hand. "Come on, hon. Let's go."
Caroline Culligan: I try, I really do. Yes, please come along Michelle. *seconding Jameel's offer.*
Michelle (Rauko) : *she'll peer to
Aerin for a moment, before actually reaching to take his hand, AND stay close to
him*
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: "Sweet machine." He
opens the door for Carrie.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: ((back door if it's
4-door, flips up the seat if it's 2-door))
Caroline Culligan: Well....let's make sure we don't
double that tonight, shall we? *she says, eyeing the shiny new car.*
Michelle (Rauko) : *will have added a tiny
nod towards Caro, falling quiet, but moving along*
Jameel Walker:
(ST extrapolation coming up:) Malcolm said that you had a cyber-cafe in mind
right Aerin? *he doesn't use the honorifics to denote Aerin's higher rank but
his tone is respectful*
Caroline Culligan: *Smiles at Corbin and slides in.*
Thanks.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks the over with
a slight smile. "Nice." He walks along... "Corbin, you're in front with Jameel,
if you don't mind." No need for Michelle to have to sit next to Trueborn she
doesn't know. He looks at Jameel and nods. "Yeah, CyberCafe would be best. I'd
use somewhere more generic, but we'll need more then one computer, and I only
have my one laptop."
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He grins and slides
in after Caroline, leaving the door open for Michelle.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: Reverses and gets in
the front seat instead. Unhappily. His plan of being between the two women has
been thoroughly thwarted.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He slips into the back seat after Michelle, settling in. Rank does have it's priveleges, even if that's the last thing on his mind.
Michelle (Rauko) : ((*snickers*))
*Michelle would rather back slightly behind Aerin and peer uneasely at the door
when Corbin slides in... and relax somewaht when he moves at Aerin's recuest...
still reminds with Ae, making a faint peer up to him*
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: DD (new pic!)
http://www.wodnyc.net/modules/coppermine/albums/uploads10296/1Corbin2.jpg
Caroline Culligan: *and the gods do laugh with cruel
irony at Corbin's plight, since now he has to sit in front with Jameel, who's
neither female nor in the back seat.*
Michelle (Rauko) : *and in.. she'll sit,
very still, and quiet*
Jameel Walker:
Bro...hang on to this *he says as he takes off his Trench coat and with it the
shot gun that he has always strapped to his back. Without actually revealing the
weapon he wraps it in the jacket and hands it to Corbin as he climbs into the
driver's seat and starts the car up*
Michelle (Rauko) : ((LOL liked more the
old one.. thoug this one makes more of he is young thampt him!))
Jameel Walker:
(down girl! *hits the Elsa with a stick*)
Michelle (Rauko) : ((*pouts and hides
behind RAvyn*))
Jameel Walker:
(Shall we roll over to the Mid-town business? I'd prefer the open but it is
occupado)
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: He holds the weapon
unwittingly.
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: ((sure))
Caroline Culligan: (sounds fine to me)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Once he's settled in,
he looks over to Caroline, backpack resting in his lap. "So how's your
computing, if I can ask, Caroline?"
Michelle (Rauko) : ((you say *nodnod*))
Corbin Justice [pb 4]: A light squeeze of
the jacket, but he says nothing, glancing out the window.
Jameel Walker:
Let's do it..*he pulls away from the curb being only a slight bit older than
Corbin he can't help but blast the gas once they're on the way. All four tires
chirp as the car jumps forward. Jameel grins and laughs quietly* Sorry...I dun
get to drive much
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Works for me!))
Jameel Walker:
(Moving to Midtown Business)
Caroline Culligan: Well...college never did teach me
how to go where I don't belong...unfortunately. But I'm a pretty good idea
person. *she admits.*
Caroline Culligan: I want to live to see Easter, Jameel! *she squeaks when he peels rubber on the way out.* (g2MB)
MT BUSINESS
Corbin Justice: "Your driving's fine," he assures Jameel.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*it's just a short 10 minute ride across
Mid-town the traffic lite at this time of the evening. Mostly only taxi-cabs and
yuppies on their way home from the opera on the road*
Michelle (Rauko): *staying still
relatively closer to Aerin... is not like she can stay away them in a car*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(new color!)
Caroline Culligan: *It's probably good that there's
not many people on the road, other wise someoen would surely be road pizza.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(red!)
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(hmm..not sure which I like better, but I won't
noodle over that now, haha)
Michelle (Rauko): ((*hides*))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He has no problem with
the man's driving, seeming perfectly comfortable with it...he talks on the way.
"I've writting a cracking software to hel pus get in, otherwise Magadon would be
nigh-impossible to do right. I mean, I've hit some serious stuff, but this is
really severe. Corbin, I'm going to need all the help I can get."
Caroline Culligan: (well if red indicates the
dominant color of tonights scene perhaps we want to choose something more
calming)
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel doesn't drive too insanely but he does
get a few honks from some Taxi-cabs but that doesn't really take much effort on
anyone's part. He pulls up in front of the Cyber-cafe finding a good parking
spot just down the street from the entrance*
Corbin Justice: He nods. "Just tell me what
you need, and I'll do it."
Caroline Culligan: Well..that means they definately
have something to hide then. *She murmers.* Jameel, Malcolm knows where we're
going tonight, right?
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
Yeah, he's all clued in..whys you worried bout
sumthin Carrie?
Caroline Culligan: *Shakes her head.* Not at all.
*Smile.* Just making sure.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*he laughs quietly* We ain't goin all rogue ops
here..he knows what we're up too...hence why I'm here. I dun get to do nothin
without Mal's approval *he doesn't seem to upset by that but he is a free-spirit
so he likely doesn't truly dig being on a rather short leash*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods a little bit,
both to Carolina and Corbin's comments. "The software an exploit with a
shell-injection code that's going to attack Magadon's systems and get us entry
in. I'm going to need you to run the code from a computer in the cafe and keep
it going, trying to evade the Admins while I slip through on my laptop and try
to get the information we need."
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*he manages to do a pretty decent job parallel
parking but he leaves the nose of the car pointed out towards the street so they
can get out in a hurry if need be. He shuts off the engine an then moves to grab
his trench back from Corbin* Thanks yo.
Michelle (Rauko): *Very quiet still, she
does gives a fleeing glance up front the car*
Corbin Justice: He nods. "Alright. Sounds
clear enough."
Corbin Justice: NOds to Jameel, handing
the coat over, then getting out.
Michelle (Rauko): *doens't know of
computer.. and probably still won't comment if she knew.. so reminds quiet,
waiting, odd eyes peering slightly around*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "I've got a list of
public access servers for us to bounce off as well, and relay in with." He slips
out of the car, sliding the backpack over his shoulder and holding the door for
Michelle and Caroline. Always the gentleman.
Michelle (Rauko): *and skitters out of the
car, moving to give room to Caro out...*
Caroline Culligan: *She smiles at Aerin and gets out
of the car, taking a look around to get a bearing on where they are and if
there's anything overtly out of the ordinary here.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel climbs out as well slipping back into his
trech coat* I'll jes be watchin your backs..not like I expect any o them nerdy
types to step though..but you know..just in case.
Caroline Culligan:
d10: per+aware: 8,2,9,5,10,
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~the street is pretty calm and quiet, a few
passing cars and some pedestrians, but otherwise it seems like it's a pretty
clear shot about 100 feet between the car and the front door of the cafe~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He nods slightly to
Jameel. "Sounds good. If Corbin or I start to get too enthralled in what we're
doing, or sounding like we're responding to someone in the computer...knock us
out and take us back to the Sept for cleansing." No algorithms claiming anyone
on this mission. He pauses a moment, and looks to Jameel. "This doesn't include
us talking shit. More like if we're agreeing with someone and amicable to them."
Michelle (Rauko): *a faint glance again
around.. and moves to stay near Aerin*
Corbin Justice: He looks around for
anything out of place or odd.
Michelle (Rauko): ((I keep wanting to tell
him Jeremy!))
Corbin Justice:
d10: p/a: 2,3,4,4,7,8,8,6,
Caroline Culligan: Right, bad talking is ok, sweet
talking, is not ok. *she murmers.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
Whatever you say bossman. *he laughs quietly
although his humor is just a cover for a bit of worry that he's tinged with by
Aerin's statement* I'm sure it ain't no thang...we've rocked as a team so far
*although Jameel won't be doing to much he still sees it as an overall group
effort*
Michelle (Rauko): *a little glance to
Aerin... then down, she sighs and breaths in... *
Corbin Justice: He nods. "Clear." Said
quietly.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~as they approach the cafe everything on the
street seems to be normal. The streetlights are lit and bathe the area in their
warm glow, not exactly as comforting as the light of the moon, but not unnerving
for the city wolves either. Peering through the window of the Cafe it seems to
be doing only modest business this evening. Although it is open 24 hours and
many computer types are night owls so it may fill up later on~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alert: 6,5,1,5,5,8,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He does his own
paranoid look look around, but is more focused on the task at hand, trusting the
Guardian to keep them safe on the way to the cafe. He walks toward the door and
pushes it open, heading to the counter to pay for computer time...a computer for
Corbin, and one for Caroline.
Caroline Culligan: *Seems pretty normal, she
observes.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: And he pays in cash,
of course. No credit card to trace.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~place description thanks to Snow~Cyber Cafe -
Caffiends: Located in Morningside Heights a few blocks from Columbia University
campus. The first thing one notices is the place is much longer than it is wide
and red and black decor is predominate through out. The first section has black
tables and chairs with red cushions along the walls are cozy semi private
booths. The lighting is dim but just bright enough to read by. To get to the
second section one must walk through a small opening in a concrete knee wall and
chain link fence that stretches nearly to the ceiling 15ft above, Red and black
drapes are hung haphazardly along the inside of the fence. Within this section
the lighting is noticeably darker giving it a more intimate feel. Red and black
couches with matching coffee tables line each of the walls as well as the short
knee walls separating the sections
Michelle (Rauko): *skitters behind them,
do peering lightly around, without lifting her gaze to high*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
The closer one gets to the counter the more
bright the lighting, at the counter they sell a variety of coffee's and other
drinks, as well as a variety of pastries, muffins and other snack foods. Along
each wall in this section a low counter runs along it periodically spaced with
chairs and computers that customers my rent by the hour, all come equipped with
Everquest and a variety of other games. In the center of this section is a few
more tables evenly space about. Finally just to the side of the counter is a
short hall leading to the restrooms. The walls throughout are painted in red and
black patterns and adorned with various works of art, from ink plots to dark
Gothic images, to replica's of famous paintings and pictures.
Corbin Justice: He follows Aerin in and
waits for his machine.
Corbin Justice: Coffee! "Anyone want
coffee?" Heading for the counter.
Caroline Culligan: *She takes a seat, waiting for
Aerin to return.* Well...seems like it's show time.
Caroline Culligan: *Raises her hand.* I'll take
one, extra cream and sugar.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
Jes lemme know if we gotta get out quick...I'll
run out and bring the car round
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(brb!)
Michelle (Rauko): *Stays near Aerin,
doesn't answer Corbin... keeps quiet*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Triple Black Forest
Mocha," he says to Corbin, paying for a couple hours' wourth for each machine.
It's more then they need, but better more then less.
Corbin Justice: He gets a coffee with extra
cream and sugar, a triple black forest mocha, and in fact two of those because
it sounds really good. He puts them in a small cardboard carry tray and moves
over to the others, giving them their drinks.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~the counter girl rings Corbin and Aerin up for
the drinks and the computer time. It comes to a modest $22 dollars for the
computer time and a not so modest $13.50 for the drinks~
Caroline Culligan: *she takes hers, taking a sip
before setting the cup down. she's not sure what Aerin has to do first so
doesn't turn on the computer yet.*
Corbin Justice: He paid with nary a
grumble. It's coffee!
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Once they've paid, he
goes and moves to the computers, unzipping his backpack. He hands Corbin a slim
CD case. Now that they're inside, he speaks quietly, so their voice doesn't
carry. "That's the cracking software. It should load up past any anti-virus
software they've got running on the computer."
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~the Cafe's computers are fairly new, nothing as
tricked out as Aerin's lap-top, but they're capable and are well suited to the
groups purposes.~
Michelle (Rauko): *She'll slip in with
them and remaind unnotrusive, quietly... just peering*
Corbin Justice: He nods, and puts the disk
in, finding the drive immediately. Nope, not a beginner, he.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Another CD case is
given to Caroline. "Caroline, if you think you can handle it, I need you to try
and help Corbin with the exploit. You're going to need to monitor the security
protocols and make sure they don't get too close."
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel finds a seat near Caroline but he doesn't
look over her shoulder or anything like that. Instead the young Bone Gnawer sets
himself to the task of keeping an eye on the rest of the cafe and also the
street outside. When they get to the indepth work someone's going to have to
watch their backs*
Caroline Culligan: What about this one? *She asks,
pointing to her own.*
Caroline Culligan: Ahhhhhh...*her own question
answered.* I think I can do it. And you need the help and another set of eyes.
*flips open teh jewel case and puts the disk in.*
Michelle (Rauko): *is helping keep
watch... just staying very still*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel looks towards Michelle and speaks
quietly* Every now and then I'm gonna go check the street outside...when I do
you watch their backs aight?
Michelle (Rauko): *blinks, for a second
peering to him, she nods* yes
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~as predicted Aerin's program installs itself
onto the computers easily moving past the rather elementary security protocols
of the cafe's computers. It looks as if Caroline and Corbin are ready to run
their part of the operation, as soon as Aerin gives them the green light~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Awesome." He nods and
sits down at a spot, firing up his laptop and slipping in the WiFi card. It is
quite the tricked-out system, built specifically for hacking. He logs into the
account he's made specifically for his hacking purposes, with the handle
1iq||id455455in. As soon as he's booted up and ready to go, he slips out a
few peaces of paper, handing a couple pages to each of his parners in computer
crime. "Here's the public servers. Make sure you bounce off at least three or
four, and go through a few countries. Makes it harder for them to track."
Corbin Justice: He hums quietly to
himself, opening up a word processing program and tying as if a letter or story.
So he doesn't look, you know, suspicious.
Corbin Justice: He takes the paper and
slips it half under the keyboard, so he can still read it.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin's plan is solid but will the plan hold
water in execution?~ (roll em up Int+Computers)
Corbin Justice:
d10: computer: 6,7,10,7,7,2,
Caroline Culligan: *She takes the paper Aerin has
given, looking over the server names then sets it beside the monitor, ready for
the go ahead.*
Corbin Justice: ((spot on! *G*))
Caroline Culligan:
d10: comp: 4,7,10,5,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: On through Cornell
University Public Acess Server (ntp0.cornell.edu), The University of Adelaide (Australia)'s
server (ntp.saard.net), and CJSC Mobicom-Kavkaz network (83.149.26.0). And then
in.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~everything seems to be going as planned so far,
Corbin and Caroline have no problem following Aerin's instructions and they're
able to cover their tracks into the system quite well...so far~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Int+Computer (WP): 6,6,6,5,3,2,2,
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((All praise WP. :P))
Michelle (Rauko): *she keeps watching,
letting her hands wriggle faintly on her lap... hard to mantin her gaze lightly
leveled...*
Corbin Justice: He's rather enjoying this,
and making sure the alt-tab works whenever he needs to appear to be simply
typing a letter. He runs the program and starts hitting servers that are on the
paper.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*as they start to work Jameel can't help but
nervously tap his foot. He doesn't know what the fuck they're doing...but he
hopes it's working. He absentmindedly fingers the .45 he keeps inside his trech
coat almost praying to Gaia that it won't have to be used tonight*
Caroline Culligan: So far so good. *she mutters
under her breath.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He frowns
deeply...it's the lack of being able to smoke. That's it. More maybe, in the
back of his head, the sounds of a high, tingly voice calling him an Evil,
Honorless Bastard...he shakes it off and furrows his brow, setting to it.
Corbin Justice: Soft murmur, "Good on my
end, too."
Michelle (Rauko): *She does drags air
quickly and faintly, shivering a moment.... staring off*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Die, motherfucker.
Just roll over and play fuckin' dead." Muttered to the computer screen. Ahh,
here comes the shit-talking.
Corbin Justice: So this is how it's done.
He lets the program work its brand of magic, bouncing off another server,
playing tag with unseen opponents.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin's program seems to be doing it's job
admirably, the weeks he spent preparing it seem to be paying dividends, the sign
on for the Magadon server appears on each person's screen. Time to crack the
password to get in~
Caroline Culligan: *She can't help a small grin
at Aerin's talk. Maybe she ought to try shit talking.*
Corbin Justice: Deep breath. "In," he
whispers.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel stands slowly* Gonna do a quick check
ouside..be back shortly. *not really said to anyone specific but he does speak
loud enough to be heard by everyone if they're not too focused on the task at
hand*
Caroline Culligan: *Her eyes widen when the name
appears.* Bingo...*a slight nod to Jameel, not really paying too much attention
to him.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Cool, Jameel." All
right. Password-breaking time. He loads up his dictionary file and feeds it
through an algorithm, to send through and find the password.
Corbin Justice: He is definitely paying
attention to Jameel, so he takes note of when he leaves.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(Ravyn a roll for the password crack if you
please)
Michelle (Rauko): *frowns, flitching
faintly, narrowing her eyes momentarily, more then antyhing closing it and
trying to peer through*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Int+Computer-WP Two: 5,9,8,6,7,4,9,
Michelle (Rauko): *Do reaches... to rub at
her eyes slightly, still trying to look intently trhough her eyes lashes... for
once... frowning though.... pressing her lips tightly like if aboid saying
something*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin's program and his own innated skill work
brilliantly in combination he cracks the password almost immediately. Once
inside the system a number of options open themselves up to the man. Personnel
files, current projects, lab locations, security protocols, and a strange file
that the program could not fully decript. It is simply labled Illiad~
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(own innate, no innated...stupid typo)
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(decrypt...*weeps*)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Bingo, bi-atch." He
grins faintly. "Access granted. Bow to me." He starts looking over the
directories. "Current Projects...Lab Locations...Personnel...Security
Protocols...Illiad? Since when were doctors interested in Greek Myths?" He goes
into Current Projects first, to find anything on Fomorol research.
Corbin Justice: ((~pats~)) He keeps an eye
on his monitor for any trouble.
Michelle (Rauko): *and... she frowns,
tensing a bit... lookign to... well would be lap or between her arms, then..
trying to look around*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin's program begins its search of the
database his screen reads "working....working..."~
Caroline Culligan: *Eyes glued to the keyboard,
looking for anything strange and unusual.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Per+Alert: 8,7,5,7,9,6,
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(Int+computers from the others so that they may
keep up with their assigned tasks of keeping the system busy whilst Aerin takes
a more indepth look around)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "How are we doing over
there?" He glances over at Corbin and Caroline...and notices Michelle's tensing
out of the corner of his eye. He looks to her, gently questioning. "Michelle,
hon?"
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ) ->
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: (Aerin definately
notices Michelle is in the thrall of one of her visions)
Corbin Justice:

Corbin Justice: "Looks okay."
Caroline Culligan:
d10: comp (WP): 7,2,4,4,
Michelle (Rauko): *Doesn't really answer
Aerin... keeps peering around... and quickly between her arms*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~the program's search finished~ "No entries
found" *perhaps it is listed under another name or in a different section of the
database the computer savvy Aerin would surmise*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Corbin is struggling to keep up the dance around
the servers to hide their signal, for not he's still ahead of the trace program,
but with results like that he may not be for long. Caroline seems to have had a
bit more luck with her task her server bouncing seeming to come a bit easier~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He looks away from
Michelle...nothing that can be done to help her now. Back to the computer as it
beeps, quickly backing out. Dammit...he takes a deep breath. "Going into Illiad,
guys. If anything happens, be ready to knock my ass out, okay?"
Corbin Justice: Deep breath. "Okay."
Sounding more confident than he feels.
Caroline Culligan: Gotcha. *she murmers, still
watching the screen.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~upon trying to access the Illiad database Aerin
reaches a block~ "You do not have permission to access these files" ~is there a
backdoor?~
Michelle (Rauko): *eyes do widen slightly,
before she frowns, with a tremble, and gives a frantly look around, tryiing to
MAKE sure where she is at.. where it is at...*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Oh, no you di'-int..."
Even said with a little sistah attitude there. Veer off into Security Protocols.
"Time for the reach-around."
Michelle (Rauko): *frowns and yes.. she is
trying to stare at something, making an effot to see, intently*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~the protocol file opens up and data begins to
stream across the screen. Some of it is encrypted further but to Aerin's eyes it
begins to paint a bizarre but understandable picture~ (more computer type
rolling. All 3 characters please)

Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
d10: Int+Comp-WP Three: 5,9,9,6,9,7,8,

Gaia is on his side this night~
Corbin Justice:

Michelle (Rauko): ((hmmm)) *there is a
moment that.. a grin? seems to fight onto her features.. she does mutter*
no..*so faint it might not even be heard, frowning, letting her eyes narrow...
still making an atempt to see ahead of her*
Corbin Justice: They're so close! He
focuses entirely on what he's doing.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "That's right, baby.
Nice and easy...I'm in." He slips through the back door, getting a manic little
grin on his face.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~this time it's Caroline who is struggling to
keep up the cyclic dance of keeping their tracks covered. Corbin seems to have
refound his groove and he's back in the zone concentrating intensely on the
project at hand~
Corbin Justice: He grins, swallowing hard,
but elated. He has even forgotten his coffee. "Oh yeah," he whispers.
Caroline Culligan: come on you bitch of a computer.
*she mutters, sounding rather like an angry chipmunk. she doesn't swear very
well.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~upon opening the file marked Iliad a number of
options much like the general list he had first glimpsed opens to him.
Personnel, current projects, project results, and a file labled "Success Ratio"~
Corbin Justice: Getting back into the game
now, focusing on bouncing, leading them on a merry chase.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((How big is the
directory? Too large for him to download with any level of efficiency, or
manageable?))
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(Based on Aerin's computer knowledge he surmises
it will take somewhere in the range of 10-20 minutes to download the directory
fully)
Michelle (Rauko): *and... stares at the
caffe... like if she was... unsure where she is at... then looking around,
frowning... making a faitl face... before she stares around again... for a few
moments really looking like she'll get up and run, yet.... Forces... forces not
to move.. righ tnow*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ) ->
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: (well for one portion of
the directory I meant, to download the entire thing could take hours. )
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Jameel returns from the street outside, he moves
back up to the group and speaks quietly~ Everthing seems to be a-okay outside.
*he doesn't ask how it's going in here as that would likely just slow them down*
(Let's have some more rolling action! Comp+int)

closes it.... to open it again, eyes on the door*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin gets the message he's likely been dreading
as he starts to copy the files.~ "Unauthorized file access in progress"
Corbin Justice:
d10: : 4,1,6,8,9,6,
Corbin Justice: He's as focused as he can
be, trying to keep ahead.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Both Caroline and Corbin are struggling to keep
up now, just barely ahead of the tracer programs when all of a sudden the
message appears on their screens as well~ "Unauthorized file access in progress"
Corbin Justice: "Shit," he mutters.
Michelle (Rauko): *and ends up pressing
her lips closed tight.. staring still at the door, tense*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Shit, shit, shit,
shit, noooooo you muddafugga..." He scowls as the message pops up. They haven't
learned enough yet... "Caroline, they're tracing. Try and figure out where
they're tracing and how far along they are." He's going for current projects and
the single "Success Ratio" file, if he can do those all sorts of fast. If not,
he's downloading the smallest of the two while he tries to access the other.
Caroline Culligan: Ahhhh shit. *She swears.* What
do we do, Aerin? *still quietly, but nervous now.*
Caroline Culligan: (another comp roll?)
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Aerin continues his download priortizing the two
files as the message continues to flash incessently across all of their screens~
(Int+computer Caroline)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "We work fast and
don't fuck up. I've only just gotten in...I can't back out now. You two, be
ready to move with Jameel. And I mean move, like fucking fast."
Corbin Justice: "Ready," he mutters.
Caroline Culligan:

KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*Jameel sense the tension* We ain't leavin ya
here bossman..Michelle...come on...we're moving the car. *Jameel doesn't
actually grab her arm but he does give her a light tap on the shoulder ushering
the kinfolk towards the door* I'll bring it around...*he says speaking quickly
but in hushed tones about the car*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "And you too,
Michelle." Said mainly to see if the girl is at her senses yet. He doesn't look
away from the screen, fingers flying over the keys. "Come on, bitch. You ain't
got shit on me. Run circles around your lamer noob ass."
Michelle (Rauko): *blinking, and perking
to Jameel.. swallows, she is very tense.. visibly so, but moves... swallowing

that's good. Doing as asked, trying to trace back and figure out how much time
they've got before their location is discovered.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ) ->
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: (one more roll from
Aerin to see how much of the desired data he can pull successfully)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Stow that talk," he
says with a finality. "Michelle, follow Jameel. "Caroline, where are we at? And
are they tracing all of us, or just one or two?"

Corbin Justice: He zaps open the drive and
grabs the disk and case, not even taking the time to put the disk *in* the case
yet, holding the computer button until it shuts down without the proper
shutting-off procedure.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "MOVE. FUCKING NOW."
His teeth grit in absolute frustration. "Take everything, including the disks."
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Jameel rushes Michelle to the car moving her
over to the passenger side and tossing his trench coat and shot gun in her lap.
He starts up the car and pulls out of the parking spot. He revs the engine
spinning the tires for a moment as the car leaps forward. He keeps gunning the
gas and when he hits 30 mph he yanks the e-brake and cuts the wheel to the right
the car doing an almost perfect 180 right in the middle of the street~
Corbin Justice: And he is out the door, but
only *after* Caroline. Gotta get the women out first!
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: His teeth grit as he
yanks his WiFi card out of the network slot. The laptop is slammed shut, and he
drops it into his backpack. Out comes a spray bottle of some sort, and he runs
it the spray over the keyboard. Ammonia and water miz, to destroy their
fingerprints, and he's moving.
Michelle (Rauko): *Tenses... YET
doens't utter a sound when is rushed and 'tosed' rather moving not to get in
Jameel's way... just seeming more and more tense by the moment, lips tighlty
shut, she seems like nearly biting them... and graps to the seat... odd eyes...
starting to look around... at least... play sentinel for the monstruosities sure
to come*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~they hear the screeching of tires outside as
they scramble inside to get everything moved. The girl behind the counter is
eyeing them suspiciously as their sense of panic is palpable to even a monkey
such as she. They hear the brakes squeel as Jameel pulls the one-eighty and a
short moment after that they see the car through the cafe window. Jameel is
tense behind the wheel~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: And if they're left by
either Caroline or Corbin, he grabs the server sheets. He's out the door last.
Corbin Justice: Turns back for the paper --
nope, Aerin's got it. Runs.
Michelle (Rauko): *and.. without even
thinking starts out* SUV's Three blocks off... hurrying *yes.. to Jameel*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(just for kicks gimme a dex+athletics roll)
Caroline Culligan: *She opens the drive, grabs the
disk, shutting the computer down the fastest way possible. she grabs anything
else that was at the workstation, leave nothing behind, including the coffee
cup, before jumping to her feet and hurrying towards the door.*

KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(oh noes!) *Caroline in her haste trips coming
out the door*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: In the back seat,
Aerin hands the backpack off to Caroline and dips into his trench coat. Let's
see. Long hair. Walking staff at times. Touchy-feely sensitive. Trench coat,
hacking skills, Glock 19. Oh, Goddess, he really is a Matrix Hippy. "You think
you can lose 'em, Jameel?"
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((DLP))
Corbin Justice: He's behind Caroline, and
grabs her up, not quite picking her up but moving her along with him.
Caroline Culligan: Mothe-----*right onto her knees.
Desperately trying to make sure nothing goes flying.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He stops and turns
around immediately, going back for Caroline. "Go, Jameel, Go!" He tosses the
backpack to Corbin. "Take that with you...we'll catch up!"
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~Corbin and Aerin both turn to hoist Caroline up~
Caroline Culligan: (Where's my clapper when I
need it? I'm confused, who's in the car, who's helping the clutz?)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Or, that works, too.
Moving toward the car with Caroline and Corbin.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(Michelle and Jameel are in the car, Caroline is
being helped up by both Aerin and Corbin)
Corbin Justice: ((They're not the smoothest

anything! *Is making sure*
Caroline Culligan: (it's the frick and frack comedy
team. *LOL*)
Michelle (Rauko): *shivers, and starts
uttering, voice lough enough, TENSe as she is making an efort to be clear and
loud for the sake of those out* I.... think.... they're loaded... four... in
each *well... trying not be so.. blatant.. no time for keeping it in* big guns?
Corbin Justice: ((should I roll an
alertness? *S*))
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
~they manage to drag Caroline into the backseat
of the car, it's not pretty and it's a bit rough, but it's effective. Perhaps
Jameel didnt' hear Aerin's order...or perhaps he just ignored it. As soon as
they're in the car he pounds the gas and the car starts rocketing down the
street. When he reaches 4500 RPMs the turbo kicks in and the car leaps forward
once again 40 mph...45...50...55...60..~
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: After a quick check to
make sure Caroline's got everything she was leaving with, he starts moving to
the car. A look in the direction Michelle pointed, to see if the SUV's are in
view.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((And NOW a repost...
*S*)) In the back seat, Aerin hands the backpack off to Caroline and dips into
his trench coat. Let's see. Long hair. Walking staff at times. Touchy-feely
sensitive. Trench coat, hacking skills, Glock 19. Oh, Goddess, he really is a
Matrix Hippy. "You think you can lose 'em, Jameel?"
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(Carrie managed to keep hold of everything
she was carrying but she's got a nice cut above her eye from where she
face-planted)
Corbin Justice: He holds on for dear life
in the car.
Michelle (Rauko): *is still grabing to the
seat. after having pointed*
Caroline Culligan: don't think, Jameel...DO. *it
worked for Yoda. She twists to look out the back window, feelign the trickle of
something warm trickling down towards her eye. She wipes it away without even
noticing too much. If they aren't successful they'r going to have more than a
booboo to deal with.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
I'll try boss...*he shouts as the car blazes past
3 Black SUVs heading in the opposite direction. Looking out the back window they
can see the lead car start to come around and the others turning as well* Don't
fail me now...*Jameel implors both the spirit of the vehicle and his own inner
strength. 70mph....75....80...the the street is now a blur as they blast through
one red light and then another narrowly missing a passing taxi cab* Holy shit! *Jameel
exclaims at the narrow miss. ~90mph~
Corbin Justice: He actually laughs. "Yoda!"
Looking out anxiously behind them as he holds on inside car.
Caroline Culligan: Oh my god, channel your inner
NASCAR, channel your inner NASCAR! *She's still holding the remains of the
coffee cup, though she's wearing a lot of what was once inside.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
Hang on! *he shouts as he blasts the breaks
preparing to take the next side street...their speed drops rapidly as the tires
begin to screech, they can hear the anti-lock breaks engage and the car slides
around the turn another narrow miss with both oncoming traffic and another car
making the turn*
Michelle (Rauko): *grabs... and stays
silent for now*
Caroline Culligan: *Holding on to the OMG handle to
keep from ending up in someone's lap.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Teeth grit, and he
braces himself against the side of the car as they squeal. "Michelle and
Caroline...heads down! Don't give them a target through the back window."
Caroline Culligan: *Good idea. Puts her head
down.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*they're blasting down the street again* Gonna
try something...hang on...
Michelle (Rauko): *doens't really seem to
have heard Aerin. she murmurs* they're shortcutting...towards the right..
Corbin Justice: Doesn't know if closing his
eyes will make this worse or better. His adrenaline rushing, part of him
thrilled, the other part aghast that he is thrilled.
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Oh, shit." That's
never good, when someone says 'hang on.' He grabs onto the front seat, bracing
himself.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*he pauses whatever it was he was doing* The
right? They're trying to cut us off..*the thought to question how Michelle knows
doesn't even cross his mind. He blasts on the brakes again and makes the next
right and then the one after that sending them back in the opposite direction*
Let's see em follow that!
Michelle (Rauko): *and shivers, closing
her eyes tightly, and finally seeming to curl onto the seat, murmuring* lost
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
We...gotta get to a Garage or somethin...we
can hoof it back to the park... *Jameel says quietly as the tension of the chase
eases up just slightly*
Caroline Culligan: *She's still bent over so she can
see nothing, but she puts a hand out on Michelle's shoulder, trying to
communicate a little comfort.* You're doing really good Michelle. I think you've
saved our bacon. *so far.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He sags back into the
seat, panting a little bit. Despite it all, he's grinning like a banshee.
"Awesome work, Jameel. You're are the fucking man."
Corbin Justice: "Incredible," he adds after
Aerin, to Jameel, when he can breathe again.
Michelle (Rauko): *trembles more when
touched, shrinking a bit more.. is never good, is never good....*
Caroline Culligan: *She sits up, looking out the
back.* We lost them? *a relieved grin.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
We owe Malcolm a boon...I don't think this car
has ever been driven this hard...hope the engine was fully broken in..*he laughs
quietly the tension easing from his fingers as he spots the tell-tale neon arrow
of a parking Garage* 7.50 an hour? ...who's got cash?
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "Find us a garage," he
says to Jameel. "Parking garage, multi-level. Easy to hide." He looks over to
Michelle, his expression softening. "Michelle? Hon?"
Corbin Justice: "Got some, I think."
Caroline Culligan: *She reaches into her pocket and
pulls out a couple of 20's handing them to Jameel.*
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: "I've still got some
cash on me," he says as an aside, still looking at Michelle.
Michelle (Rauko): *is back onto keeping
her lips TIGHTLY shut, nearly biting inwardly, she casts a little peer to Aerin
when hears his voice, Tensy, really so still*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
it's $36.50 for the night...Got forty bucks?
Caroline Culligan: If they got the license plate of
the car they'll run a check.
Corbin Justice: He hands out the ten
bucks he has.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*he takes the money from Caroline* Thanks
Carrie...let's let the attendants park the car...we should beat feet outta here.
*he pulls up to the Gate and pays for the overnight parking the attendant not
even bothering to give them suspicious looks. He just accepts the cash and the
small tip to park the car*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
Maybe if they was eagle-eyed they could've read
it...we were doing 85 when we shot passed them...I dun think they ever got too
close...but there's traffic camera's an shit all round the city..runnin them red
lights an stuff...this car is probably compromised
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: He reaches out to slip
his hand into Michelle's...gently, slowly, so as not to spook her. "C'mon, hon...let's
go. You're fine for now...we'll get it sorted out, okay?"
Michelle (Rauko): *she DOEs hold onto
Aerin's following him. though she shakes her head, still biting her lips close
inwardly*
Corbin Justice: He gets out quickly.
Michelle (Rauko) -> Aerin Thomas [PB 3]:
((for this be her.. she might just as well grabbing =P))
Caroline Culligan: Yeah, you're probably right. *she
says, grabbing all the stuff, pausing to make sure everythings out of the car as
well.*
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
*grabs his trench and slips it back on replacing
his shot-gun seemlessly* Park's that way...*he points* Let's get the fuck outta
here
Caroline Culligan: (if this is it, I need to get
myself to bed since it's almost 1 in the morning here.)
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: Out of the car, and he
takes the backpack from Caroline, slipping it over his shoulder. His heart's
still pounding, adrenaline pumping... They did it! They fucking hacked
Magadon. He looks around, trying to get his bearings, figure out which
way to the Park.
Michelle (Rauko): ((jejejej....oww.. me
is gonna soonish, not yet))
Michelle (Rauko): *they start walking..
she is NOT letting go of Aeri's hand... for once... and she drags close... not
really able to hold it any longer.. she mutters... in a way sounding like she is
about to yell... but just.. is to tense to bring herself right now* candies....
they...they'regivingitochildren
Michelle (Rauko): ((AHHH!!!!! *growns and
caps* and that is ALL the way I could hold on))
Corbin Justice: Still has his disk and
stuff. He follows Aerin towards the park, but will soon part to go on home.
Giving him an elated grin like they hadn't just been nearly caught.
KnifeFrown (Caffiends-Cyber Cafe ((Closed)) ):
(yeah, just gotta walk back to the park, likely
Carrie needs a few stiches or Mother's touch. I'll have the information to you
on what exactly Aerin was able to withdraw from the computer. I hope everyone
had fun, that was a little more intense than I expected it to be, I'm sorry it
ran long)
Michelle (Rauko): ((I was GREAT!.. me is
shaking *nodnodnod* ))
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: His eyes narrow at
Michelle's words. "To children?" He shakes his head...not tensing any more...not
really surprised. "Well, shit. We'd better get back and see what I got."
Aerin Thomas [PB 3]: ((Aerin can Mother's
