Ravyn: ((Okay, guys. So. We're going to over the rules, first. We do have a few of them. Here they are.))

Ravyn: 1) These scenes have the potential to be fatal. By entering them you are accepting that.

2) These scenes also have the potential to inflict long-lasting alterations upon your character, whether in personality (such as gaining a derangement), body (gaining physical impairments) or soul (Shoved into a Caul). Same provisio as 1. By entering the scene you're accepting that this may happen.

3) If you drop out of the scene before it ends, you do not gain XP for attending. (Unless your characters involvement comes to a natural conclusion). These scenes are planned to last for four hours, and "Shit, I got to go, sorry" or sudden disappearance will render you XP-less. Exceptions will be made for certain situations, if I am notified in advance of the scene. Arlett, this of course means you. We do call it "the Arlett exception" for a reason. ;)

4) Only one of your characters may be played during one of these scenes.

Ravyn: 5) If I find you multitasking during one of these monthly scenes, I will kick you out of the Mage scene. Multitasking slows everyone down, and we're usully on a very tight schedule.

6) Please do NOT IM ME during one of these scenes unless it is for something urgent or important, such as me neglecting one of your pertinent merits or flaws, forgetting about an NPC, or your house burning down. If you start harassing me, glomping me, prodding me, or otherwise antagonising me during the scene, I will kick you out of it, and perhaps go to your house and burn it down, too (so then your IM is justified). However, this will mean, as Spaz once pointed out, that you will get to meet me in person.

Ravyn: If that last rule wasn't clear, let me know, I'll put a little more emphasis on it next time. ;)

Fangwulf: ((*ponders IMing Rav now just to clarify the last rule*))

Ravyn: Now, with that in mind...everyone get ready to enjoy the game...I am now setting the scene!

Snyde: I dont think I understood the last rule *Grins and ducks*

Ravyn: *Beats Fangwulf* Ahh, I'm going to miss doing that...you only get to beat them when they're your AST, you see. Not when they're someone else's, or another system's ST. ((NOW setting the scene))

Cori Frost -> Ravyn: ((if i'm slow my net is being iffy cause of snow sorry, just continue and i'll catch up))

Ravyn: The streets of New York are white, with almost two feet worth of snow having fallen overnight, as the afternoon sun sits in the sky. The streets of Downtown New York are slippery and wet as commuters try and make their way home from church, not to mention their everyday lives. The scene is Park Row in downtown Manhattan, whch surrounds City Hall Park, and is home to a subway stop, schools, governmental buildings (including City Hall), several banks, and serval other types of stores. It's the kind of place that anyone could really find a reason for being her for.

Snyde: *Snyde walks beside Adriana with a cig resting between his fingers*

Novalee Van Zandt: She walks down the street, still trying to familirize herself with the area. Hands in her pockets, and a knit hat on her head with some of her hair still covering her face. The snow on the ground nor the freezing fog seems to be bothering her much at the moment.

Tell her she is beautiful and she knows you are yanking her chain. If the Viking myths are indeed true, she most assuredly looks the part of a Valkyrie. Her height not withstanding at a little over six feet tall, with blond hair that has been cut short, shaved on the back of her head, falling to her shoulders in front, a backwards layered cut which suits her well. She would be beautiful if not for the scars(cuts) all over her body and face, which make her look if not a little intimidating. Preferring to wear jeans, steel toed boots, and t-shirts, with her leather jacket, lending to her intimidating looks, and giving her the air of a Valkyrie in the modern day.

Fangwulf: ((SO sorry... be RIGHT back, have to walk the dog, she just threw up.))

Arlett: *why why why be here? well besides shoping for parts for gear and a cloth and candies and chocolate syriup?.... is snowing! so while keeping all things bouthg in baggie, actually meanders slightly over the snow, thomping it with her feet a little while walking*

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon exits the subway and tugs his coat closer, frowning as he eyes the broken zipper. "Shit. Gonna have to get Cass to pick me up a new coat," he mutters, shaking his head as he glances around to get his bearings.

Winifred Miles: *She's covered up, hat, muffler around her face, big puffy coat, thick heavy boots, mittens. Apparently she hasn't met a color she doesn't like and she's attempting to wear all of them.*

Cori Braun: *whistling cheerfully to herself, well-bundled against the cold in her bunny jacket and a sweater that hangs out from underneath it. big brown eyes lazily assessing the various street corners for a good spot to hawk Valentine's jewelery*

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana trails along beside snyde, her longcoat pulled tightly around her chest with a daintily gloved hand. She's out of her medical attire for the day, actually spending her day off outside the lab for a change. Her long dark hair is down and she wears a flowing ankle length black skirt and an elegantly simple white tunic blouse. Sharp blue eyes shoot around the area. "Why... are we walking again?" she inquires to snyde. (anyone can roll awareness vs diff 9 for adri)

Ethan Demian Augustus: He ducks out of a shop, and onto the street, glancing around, pulling his coat tighter around him even as he smiles at the sight of all the snow.

Cori Frost: She is bundled up and trudgeing through the snow taking her time cause well with her short stature it is hard to move through the snow. "note to self go to florida during the winter. " yes she should be used to this seeing as she used to live in the hilly part of New England, but it doesn't mean she totally liked it.

Snyde: *He looks back at Adriana and shakes his head maybe its true anything without a metallic glimmer or the smell of blood is lost on the woman* "Because its pretty out here" *he says as he takes a drag off his cig* "And because you need some time away from work"

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *Exits a small photo studio tucked away into a out of the way corner of the block.*

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Per+Awareness: 8,6,4,4,4,5,

Arlett: *thump thump the snow... well is something she hasn't done in ages.... stops and looks around, tilting her head a bit at seeing Snyde .. with Adrianna.. ble... ponders snow attacking Snyde... Adriana would sure have a fit if she tries*

Jonathon Montgomery: Shaking his head, Jon runs a hand over his brush cut brown hair and strikes off across the street, jogging to get through the small gap in traffic, his eyes on the shops across the way. "Tattoo parlor should be around here somewhere," he rumbles.

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She blinks along, looking in windows with a tiny squint. "There are plenty of places away from work that don't involve freezing temperatures, dear. I don't see what it is about the outdoors that fascinates you so. It's.. filthy out here."

Cori Braun: d10: per/alert NOT aware: 10,6,2,8,5,9,

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: per alert: 4,3,1,8,

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *A very attractive teen girl with a pale complexion, just under average height with a petite frame curved just enough in all the right places. Short raven black hair hangs just past her chin, dyed with red streaks. A cigarette dangles between her cherry red lips. Thick black eye liner and red eyeshadow highlights her brilliant green eyes. Wearing a pair of low hip hugger black jeans and a pair of black laced up knee-boots. Over a long sleeved purple shirt with a dark purple heart surrounded by sparkly blue outline emblazoned on it, she wears a black hooded Katz Kitten Club jacket, emblazed with a pink Kitten Klub patch on the back, 'Bad Luck' embroidered in pink on the sleeve cuffs, and two pink kity patches on the front with the number '13' on them. Around her neck is a black and pink scarf, with the ends hanging over her shoulders.* (( http://www.wodnyc.net/modules.php?name=coppermine&file=displayimage&album=19&pos=9 ))

Snyde: *he shakes his head* "Take a deep breath and calm down Adriana, besides you should be used to this kinda temp" *he says with a smirk*

Cori Braun: *her height is an advantage. she notes several familiar faces in the crowd and chuckles to herself. although, she heads toward Arlett*

Jonathon Montgomery: His attention to his surroundings wavers as the edge of his boot catches on a patch of ice and he stumbles to a halt on the curb, arms almost pinwheeling and swearing up a blue streak.

Novalee Van Zandt: Her sences must be off, maybe because she is looking at Winnie and blinking. Can she get more wierder? A slight shake of her head moving towards Winnie.

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She glares at Snyde "Yes, of course dear. Because it snows so frequently in Houston. I don't think I'll ever get used to this wretched city."

Arlett: *yea.. starts molling snow toguether.... still muling over attacking Snyde.. when sees Core, grins and waves*

Snyde: *He stops and turns around to look at her* "look Adriana, next time ill let you pick the outing allright?"

Cori Braun: *waves back to Arlett with another chuckle and continues plodding in the girl's general direction*

Ravyn: The traffic, despite the snow, is as busy as ever...this is the city that never sleeps, after all, and it's also the city that never stops driving from the looks of it. Park Row being a very busy driving area, the taxi cabs and commuter traffic zip along, heedless of pathes of black ice or any similar problems. Hey, it's just snow, right?

Arlett: *mulling over still throing the ball to Snyde... what makes her doubt... well she doens't want him pulling the gun out in the middle of the street!*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He steps out of Jon's way before realizing who he just almost was run over by. "Carefu...oh, hi."

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny nod and keeps walking, muttering under her breath "I never force you to watch my disections."

Jonathon Montgomery: "Oh. Hey. Ethan, right," he says, offering the man a grin as he extends his hand. "How are ya, man?"

Snyde: *he laughs a bit at that* "and for that I am very thankful"

Arlett: *sooo.. with a loong around ends up throwing the ball snow to Cori.... she isn't carrying a gun*

Cori Braun: *laughs as she attempts to catch the snowball*

Cori Braun: d10: dex: 8,8,

Cori Frost: as She meanders slowly she almost didn't see Roxy but rather walks into her slightly "excuse me..oh hey "

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana blinks steely eyes to the road, frowning. "See.. this is why I'm so hesitant to learn to drive in this city. Such recklessness. It's terrible. An accident simply waiting to happen."

Arlett: ((Gha!! there are TWO Cories!))

Ethan Demian Augustus: "I'm good. You?" He smiles, taking Jon's hand, and stepping back. The edge of the sidewalk just isn't so safe.

Cori Braun: *and blinks, slightly startled, that she managed it* heya, Arlie. 'sup? *grins widely and just sort of rolls the ball between her double-gloved hands*

Arlett: *giggles, takes a bunch of snow in her hands and starts heading for cover from the retaliat Core is SURE to throw back*

Snyde: *He nods a bit* "Yea yet another reason we are walking Adri" *he says with a smile*

Novalee Van Zandt: With a sigh since Winnie doesn't seem to see her she attwempts to catch up to her "Winnie." she says voice soft as usual but a bit louder to catch her attention.

Arlett: *or not.... fine, no cover, grins* nothing... I was trying to decide if snow attack Snyde or not *tilts her chin his way* but ... ya know... hows ya?

Jonathon Montgomery: He steps back with Ethan, shrugging. "I'm all right. Trying to figure out what the hell to get Cass for Valentines day. I hardly ever see the man lately so I want it to be something special." He pauses, smirking. "Granted Valentines is on Tuesday and its Sunday and this is the first time I've gone shopping."

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *stumbles a bit and gives said clumsy person a dirty look and nearly tells them off then gives Cori a lopside frown/smile hard to say with one corner ofher lips curled down and the other up* Hey...

Winifred Miles: *She turns all the way around to catch sight of Novalee.* HEY! *she's grinning beneath the muffler but it can't be seen.*

Ravyn: ((Suggestion, guys...for clarification, refer to them as Cori B or Cori F.))

Cori Frost: "sorry its really a pain to be short in the city " she shrugs "how have you been"

Fangwulf: *There is a little boy, walking, alone on the sidewalk. He looks around, and shivers, in the cold, rubbing gloved hands together. The clip clop of his boots sound, heading towards Jonathan.*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Oh...last minute shopping is a tactical decision. Granted, usually one makes while more confident on a quick victory." He smiles. "Tell me about him, and I'll try to help...?"

Jonathon Montgomery: "Cass? He's amazing. An actor..Cooks like you wouldn't believe. Great in bed." He grins and then looks sheepish. "Okay, so, here's the real deal, Ethan. I haven't a fuckin' clue what to get him for V day. Truth is I have an appointment with a Tattoo artist to start talking about the sleeve design for my left arm."

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Still eyeing the traffic, Adriana worms her way through the other pedestrians still walking along next to Snyde. "So what funfilled events will we be participating in today, dear?" She inquires in her usual shrill and skeptical tone.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He chuckles. "I see."

Cori Frost -> Ravyn: ((yah know Cori is gunna change her name...cause well this it too much of a head ache and since sheis a hollower she'll have some random reason for it.))

Cori Braun: *chuckles softly to Arlett* i think if you managed to miss and hit the doc, you'd probably not even be able to think about running away. *grins impishly* how are ya?

Novalee Van Zandt: Another slight shake of her head. "Even for the weather you seem to make things lively doncha, Winnie?" A grin. "What brings you out?"

Jonathon Montgomery: "Yeah. I'm a schmuck." He nods and rubs the back of his neck, tongue flicking idly over his teeth.

Fangwulf: *He shivers, and looks around. And takes a walk towards the tall man. He looks to be about twelve or so. He looks over his shoulder, and accidentally bumps into the man. His eyes go wode.* S...sorry mister.

Snyde: "Well I thought we would go for a walk and then see where life leads us from there" *he says with a smile as he flicks his cig off to the side hearing it hiss briefly as it hits the snow*

Arlett: *snickers* THAT worries me too... then again she'll probably die first of the fit she'll trhow *moving now close to Cori* humm.. I'm fine... just tired of being indoors, ya?

Fangwulf: ((wide, not wode. He's too young to be on midievil narcotics.))

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon drops a hand to the kid's shoulder to make sure he doesn't fall and glances down, offering a smile. "Sokay, munchkin. You all right?"

Winifred Miles: Well...the snow. Isn't it great...*a little yell.* Did you see that car slide on the ice? Hope he doens't take out the hot dog vendor. What are you doing out here? *has forgotten her own little faux pas the other night.*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *shrugs slightly taking a moment to take a drag from her cigarette and look around, sniffing a bit* I'm cold, tired of walking, and I think I have snow in my boots. *smirks a bit* Though the photographer seemed happy by the side effect, I think he had a window open in back or something.

Cori Braun: *grins* nah, she'd live long enough to thoroughly mangle you, i'm sure. and i know exactly what you mean. it's just a nice day out, ya know?

Fangwulf: *He nods, sniffling, wiping under his nose with one glove.* I'm f...fine. Sorry, I didn't mean to.

Ethan Demian Augustus: He looks down at the kid that bumps into Jon and smiles. "Hey."

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny nod, hugging her coat more tightly around her skinny chest. "Just so long as life leads us indoors soon. Toward a hot mug of coffee."

Cori Frost: "they usually are happy with that huh" she grins and kicks a pile of snow "getting a decent check this time at least?"

Ethan Demian Augustus: He glances around for parents, normall they show up, moments like this.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Its okay." His brow furrows slightly. "You're so cold your nose is running. Why aren't you at home in front of the TV, huh?" He drops into a crouch in front of the kid with a grin.

Fangwulf: *He looks up at Ethan, and there seems to be no... connection. He frowns slightly, and again, sniffles. He squirms past the big man, pushing off from him with his left palm.*

Arlett: *Laughs at Coris' words* maaan.... she will out live us all like a desease *grinning, nodding then, looking around* yea... haven't been IN the snow for a while... nor in a good snowfight in ages

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana blinks steely eyes to the road, frowning. "See.. this is why I'm so hesitant to learn to drive in this city. Such recklessness. It's terrible. An accident simply waiting to happen."

Snyde: *Snyde smiles at her* "yea we can go get some coffee soon if you would like"

Novalee Van Zandt: "No I did not." she glances towards the street then her surroundings. "Although it seems that if one were to live in a city that it snow's they should learn how to navigate properly in it as well." a shrug of her shoulder. "Gettin' used to the area. new 'round here an all."

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: (how the crap did that happen?! dlp)

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *shrugs a bit* All of the shoots pay ok, it is just the lack of stead shoots that suck.*takes a drag off the cigarette then crushes it out on the nearest wall.*

Jonathon Montgomery: He turns slightly as the kid pushes off of him, face concerned.

Fangwulf: *No parents seem to be following him.*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Are you out here alone?" He puts a hand on the kid's shoulder, more concerned now then before.

Cori Frost: She nods her head "i'm thinking of taking up another way to make money"

Ravyn: Onto the curb across the street, out of City Hall Park, walks a man. He's young enough, though he is approaching middle-age...maybe 30, 35 years old, and handsome enough in an academic way. His hair is a light brown, wavy and cut short, dressed professionally in a collarless white dress shirt and slacks underneath a heavy jacket, with a pair of wire-rimmed sunglasses covering his face. He takes a look left and right, noting the traffic, and then directs his attention across the street toward where the young kid, Jonathon, and Ethan are.

Snyde: d10: per+alert: 5,3,6,5,5,4,

Winifred Miles: Really? where you from that doens't have snow. *Looks like she'd be fairly intimate with snowfall. Novalee's height makes her have to throw her own head back to look up at her, tryingt to peer between hat and muffler.*

Fangwulf: *He yanks away from the hand on his shoulder, looking almost fearful. He shakes his head, and turns to run.*

Cori Braun: *nods cheerfully* park's're better for snowball fights than streets, though. streets, too many peeps start screaming like you're a lil boy with a mirror on his shoe if you try to just have fun around them.

Fangwulf: ((Any of you that have met Jason or remember him will recognize the boy if you are within looking distance.))

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *raises a brow and pulls up the scarf over her face partially to help word off the cold.* Whats that? *her tone sounding amussed like she can think of any number of things, Cori F. might do for exter income*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Whoa there," Jon says, reaching out to catch the kid's jacket. "Ain't neither of us gonna hurt you."

Snyde: *Out of the corner of his eye he notices a young girl who might just possibly be Arlett. One way to find out he thinks to him self as he bends down and collects some snow and packs it into a ball*

Fangwulf: *He winces at the grabbing, and then slips free of his coat to run.*

Arlett: yea...*looking to Cori then around, then to Cori* I remember *Winking a bit* so.. ya were looking for soething specific or jsut walking *looking again around... peering a mometn to Snyde and Ad.. then around*

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana looks down to Snyde with a 'you'd better not even think about it' glare.

Arlett: ((don't recall Jason))

Cori Frost: She shrugs " going pro Domme" she glances about " its a pain to do though"

Ethan Demian Augustus: "It's alr-" He blinks as the kid prepares to flee and looks at Jon. Ethan is just not capable of restraining the kid, even if he manages to catch him.

Snyde: *Snyde smiles a bit as he stands back up with the Snow ball in hand before launching it in Arletts direction*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Fuck." He glances from his fistful of coat to Ethan, eyes wide as the kid takes off."The hell?"

Ravyn -> Arlett: ((You should. Jason was the young man from the library scene, that Tessa took off with.))

Snyde: d10: Dex+ath: 8,9,3,7,4,

Novalee Van Zandt: "Originally I am from Michigan, but I moved around a bit, last place I was, was Washington. It snows there, but people know how to drive in the snow there, not like here."

Cori Braun: well, i'm actually looking for good spots to sell my jewelery. V-day's in, like two days. *grins, looking around again herself*

Cori Braun: d10: p/al: 9,9,4,5,2,3,

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: Need more leather and a riding crop then. *said rather matter of factly* So CR into that stuff huh?

Ravyn: ((Everyone can roll Per+Alertness))

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Go?" He asks, looking anxiously after the kid. "I don't...."

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: per alert: 9,5,7,8,

Arlett: *well she WAS peering his way.. so she meehps and crouches to avoid the snow ball, which more then likely goes to stop by her shoulder* hei!! *it was HER idea... gathering immidiatly a ball to throw back*

Cori Frost: d10: per+alert: 10,5,5,1,4,

Jonathon Montgomery: "I chase him I'm just gonna scare him worse," he says, frowning as he stands, still clutching the coat.

Winifred Miles: d10: per + alertness: 5,5,7,2,7,7,

Fangwulf: *He turns after a while of running, to watch. He almost looks apologetic.*

Jonathon Montgomery: He eyes the kid, brows rising as he holds out the coat with a one sided shrug.

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Yeah, but if you don't we may not find him again." He starts to slip through the crowd, in the same direction the kid went, walking quickly, trying to keep him in sight.

Cori Braun: *arches a nearly invisible brow,puzzled*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *snorts and smirks under the scarf* Yeah sure, so what just going to spring it on him?

Novalee Van Zandt: "This is the first time I have been this far east." another shrug of her shoulder. "I will get used to it, just like I have any other place."

Snyde: *Snyde notices the strange boy and keeos an eye on him as he waits for Arletts retaliation*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He frowns as the kid stops, slowing. This is odd behavior.

Winifred Miles: It's a great city, isn't it. *She says with a grin, new yorker pride in her voice. She'd seen the boy run but didn't think much of it.*

Cori Frost: "nah i'll mention i wanna make some extra money, i don't think he'll object to the method of money making." she shrugs.

Ravyn: ((1 success: There's something going on on the street.

3 successes: The car is picking up speed, as the driver tries to regain control.
4 successes: The car is heading, if it maintains it's current direction, directly for the sidewalk, and Jonathon and Ethan.))

Arlett: ((Arlett already retaliated *pokes Snyde))((and waits on info for roll from Ravyn to do more))

Jonathon Montgomery: He sighs. So much for the new sleeve. Coat in hand he strikes off after Ethan, coming up alongside the other man. "The hell is up with that pipsqueek?"

Dr. Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's steely blue eyes trail snyde's snowball to Arlett, offering the girl a protocol smile. Until she sees the pile of snow she'd gathered. She frowns and steps to the right, away from Snyde. To avoid being hit in the cross fire. She looks back to the street.

Cori Braun: *very calmly reaches out to set a hand on Arl's shoulder*

Snyde: *He brushes the snow off of himself as he watches the car before he cups his hands over his mouth and begins to shout in Ehtan and Jonathon's direction* "Get out of the way"

Arlett: *of course immidialy once the ball is thrown she yells* CAR COMMING! *towards the duo pondering what to do with an empty coat, reaching a moment to pull out one of the new circuits and gather in a snow ball,... trying, REALLY trying to throw it at the snow in front of them ((ie between them and car... and what you'll wonder is the intention.. use forces and matter to pour JUST enough electricity NOT to fry people But make the snow puffy so it stops car imput))

Arlett: d10: arete : 2,6,8,

Fangwulf: *His eyes widen, and he ducks into a side-alley.*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "I dunno...."

Novalee Van Zandt: She spots the car and it's attempt to gain control and speed up. A sigh. Stupid drivers. "We shall see, I have not been here long and most I have met here have been strange to say the least." yes this coming from the scared large woman.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Ethan!" Jon grabs the man's arm and tugs, trying to get them out of the way and into one of the shop doorways.

Arlett: ((ergs... and I'll roll to see if I hit the right spot?))

Arlett: d10: throwing : 3,6,9,5,

Cori Braun: *tenses, pale face growing paler.*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *there is almost always something going on in the streets. It is New York City and other than vaugely looking in it's direction to see if it is a threat...* So going to charge him huh? And here I thought you guys had moved on past that. I mean I knew he was paying you to "work" *yes she makes the air quotes with her fingers* around the place.*the scarf hiding her wicked grin*

Winifred Miles: *Just a little fishtailing to her.* well..it IS New York. *she points out.* The city of hte strange and unusual.

Ravyn: ((Everyone pause for a moment. Arlett, roll me Int+Science.))

Ethan Demian Augustus: Yelling, people are yelling. He flows easily with Jon, not even quite sure where or why, as he tries to puzzle out what's going o-CAR?

Arlett: *After throw eyeing Cori, then the duo... to see if it worked if they'll be fine*((how far away are we of them all?))

Arlett: d10: intel-science: 1,10,9,2,6,9,5,

Ravyn: ((Arlett, you're using electricity. On a Snow-Covered Street. Snow is water, and electricity will NOT make the snow puffy and stop the car from moving. We're talking two feet of snow, not full snowdrifts It will melt the snow and likely conduct to everyone around, shocking them.))

Arlett: ((then just matter..? it is doable with just matter))

Jonathon Montgomery: ((*cough* DLP please. Jon and Ethan are oblivous! I misread!))

Ravyn: Arlett's snowball hits between Ethan/Jonathon and the car, and the snow expands suddenly, becoming a sort of barrier. ((Per+Awareness all))

Cori Braun: *blinks at Arlett. then across the street, thin lips pursing slightly*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana blinks between the two pairs, eyes sharp and narrowed. She hugs her coat tightly around her and steps closer toward Snyde. "What's going on, dear?"

Cori Frost: "who said the services would be for him" she grins which shift as she turns her head toward Johnathan and Arlett's direction she looks to Roxy with a frown. "uhmm"

Arlett: *Bites her lips do wihspers to Cori* if that cause problems, run.. I'll deal *well she'll try, but if that safes the men is worhty*

Cori Frost: "do you wanna go see what is going on or stick to the sidelines.?"

Cori Braun: *nods slightly to Arl and murmurs back* should see what's going on--you know anyone over there?

Winifred Miles: *Her eyes dart around, she can feel the tell tale tingle of magic in use, and from the sudden expansion what sphere was used, but she can't quite pinpoint who did it.*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *looks across the way to where she feels the magic spike, or disturbance in the "Force" and mutters to herself* Can't even go out in public anymore.

Arlett: *KEEPs her eyes on the car and what is going on starting to walk that way* just Snyde and Adriana that I have seen ((humm... not sure if I saw Roxy yet))

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *glances to Cori and shrugs a bit* Depends on whats about to go down.

Snyde: *Snyde looks between to two areas where he felt the disturbances and then to Adriana and shakes his head* "I dont know but I think we should find out"

Ethan Demian Augustus: He blinks and looks around. Something is up.

Cori Frost: She nods "well we could stick here for a bit in case its something worth running away from..." she mutters "where's CR when you need him"

Adriana Carmichael: She purses her lips and looks between the groups. She starts making a quick pace for Arlett, since she's the one she's most familiar with.

Winifred Miles: *and isn't that the woman from the restaurant..the one who dipped her chips in chocolate.*

Ravyn: ((Apologies, all. Phone call at worst possible time. Gotta love Murphy.))

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon frowns as the kid ducks down the alley. "The hell was all that about," he mutters, still unaware of the car, or the weirdness.

Ethan Demian Augustus -> Ravyn: [If not the car, does he notice the wall of snow? Or does he have time for that?]

Snyde: *Snyde moves with Adriana towards Arlett and Cori B*

Novalee Van Zandt: "So I am noticing., Which is much more different than that small farming and industrial towns I grew up in." She had slip her attention for just a moment and when she heard the shouts of a car, she turns to determin what was going on. Magic? No nothing happened out of the ordinary that she could feel happening. ((Winnie got 3 successes so she knbows who did it, I believe. Not the people themselves but which people it came from))

Cori Braun: *finds a section of wall to lean against casually, big brown eyes focusing on Arl. then Jon. then scanning the area around them as carefully as she can.*

Ravyn -> Jonathon Montgomery: Jonathon suddenly has an intense feeling come over him...an incredibly empowering feel. Like he's some kind of indestructible force. This awareness suffeses his every being, and he's dimly aware of the world around him, which is suddenly more vibrant...more alive and more dead at the same time. He is acutely aware of the car coming toward him and Ethan as well.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *looking away but keeping the events in the corner of her eye.* Yeah though staring might draw unwanted attetion.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana makes a quick advance, stopping just in front of arlett with a conerned motherly downward glance to the girl. "Dear. Is everything alright?"

Arlett: ((I think we need to pause till Ravyn can tend again?))

Ravyn -> Jonathon Montgomery: He also hears a voice, vaguely female, which whispers to him: "It's up to you."

Cori Frost: She nods her head fingers digging into her pockets.

Snyde: *Snyde stands there as he looks across the street at Johnathan and Ethan*

Winifred Miles: Did you feel that? *She whispers to Novalee, nodding towards Arlett adn then Jon.*

Jonathon Montgomery: His eyes widen, coat dropping from his fingers as he suddenly realizes that there is a car coming straight for him. His first thought though is Ethan... He shoves the man towards the nearbye doorway as hard as he can. "Car!"

Ravyn: ((Arlett, you still have a soak roll to make for Paradox))

The car is moving too fast...it blasts its way through the surprisingly strong snowdrift that suddenly appeared. It veers ahead, toward Jonoathon and Ethan, the driver at this point with a dazed, panicked look on his face, like a deer in headlights.

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: dex ath - ethan move: 2,2,9,2,3,

Arlett: ((dind't tell))

Arlett: d10: s: 2,2,

Ethan Demian Augustus -> Ravyn: [Dodge?]

Novalee Van Zandt: She looks to Winnie and then to where she indicated. "No I didn't" a frown on her face.

Cori Braun: *tenses, watching the car, lips thinning further, forehead wrinkling. inside her pockets, her fists clench* shit....*she hisses out*

Ravyn -> Ethan Demian Augustus: ((Sure. Specify whether dodging car or Jon's shove. :) ))

Arlett: ((waiting on results)) *blinks up to Adraina. motherly?... WHO is she?!* yea...*helo! * the car *points and keeps moving that way.. SURE there is gonna be wounded*

Ravyn: ((Sorry, Arlett...rolled with a "Paradox - Arlett" text, should have specified)) Arlett feels the weight of Paradox crush down on her, freezing her body some...her body even takes on a blueish tint to it. ((1 Bashing; you are also at -1 to all actions for the scene due to the crushing cold))

Ethan Demian Augustus: d10: dodge car (wp/succ): 3,8,9,7,

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon stares at the incoming car in shock. If only the driver could get some traction...some friction between the wheels and the icy road then he could get control, get back onto the street...

Winifred Miles: Oh crap. *the car, going right for Jon and Ethan.*

Arlett: ((=P yea. but is the first time you roll dox on scene *hugz*))*wincing... shivering a bit, but still moving on.. dam dam damm.... they BETTER live or she'll be pissed at them*

Cori Frost: she glances over again "uhmm it doesn't look good Roxy" expcially seeing the kinda bluish tint on Arlett.

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, watching the slighltly blueish girl move off, eyes flicking to the car in question. How did she NOT see that? She reaches over to tug on Snyde's coat.

Ravyn: Ethan is shoved out of the way by Jonothan, and he goes with it, dodging of the way. Sadly, Ethan gets out of the way...Jon does not, and the car barrels right into him...and stops dead in it's tracks, Jonathon's causing the front of the car to dent and bend inward, the thing nearly folding around the man. Despite the impact, Jonathon's body does not move, is not thrown back by the sudden impact.

Novalee Van Zandt: "Don't swear." it is an automatyic thing to Winnie as she starts to head toward the soon to be scene of an accident.

Snyde: *Snyde stands there watching the car as it barrels towards Jon and Ethan, looking as if he is about to bolt in that direction*

Cori Braun: *shudders, making her way to Snyde and Adriana* we'd better be ready....

Ravyn: d10: Damage: 9,10,7,9,2,3,9,9,6,7,4,3,

Ravyn -> Jonathon Montgomery: ((Roll Stamina + 6))

Arlett: *oi! and runs to ... weird.. Jonathon... shivering... cold cold.... heading over* Adraina! *well SHE is the doctor*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *In the few moments between the magic alerting her to things and the car obviously out of control till it crashes??? Into a young man who seems to be perfectly fine.* Um ok, you don't see that every day.

Cori Braun: *eyes widen at Jon*

Adriana Carmichael: The doc's eyes widen and she bolts for Jonathon, hand slipping into her purse.

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: : 2,5,6,5,3,2,4,3,9,1,

Snyde: *Snyde bolts off towards Jonathan and the car knowing that he should do somthing but not quite sure what he should do*

Winifred Miles: *Her eyes widen and she swears again...despite Novalee's admonition. She's never seen anythinglike that...is that guy alright?*

Ravyn: ((......HOLY SHIT.))

Arlett: ((did't snowy made the car slow MORE before hitting Joh.. take some of dammies?))

Arlett: ((I got paradox for it, it better helps... well hope))

Novalee Van Zandt: Who know Novalee is not paying any attention to Winnie and hert cusing she is running towards the car and Jon.

Cori Frost: "understatement of the year.." she blinks and looks around "we better scatter soon.."

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon's eyes close as he realizes he doesn't have time to get out of the way and one arm comes up, as if somehow that would protect him from imminent death.

Cori Braun: *shudders and forces herself to look around. anyone who noticed--and surely there's quite a few who did--to see if anyone's reactions are...odd. not what one would expect from a serious thing like this, never mind the miraculous-seeming reaction of the guy*

Ravyn: ((I'm accounting for that, Arlett, yes.))

Arlett: ((ouch))

Adriana Carmichael -> Ravyn: (I know the PM laws.. just had to ask, if adriana thought this a fatal situation she would fire off a healing tranq from her purse. would you allow such a thing or would it be too late?)

Ravyn: Well, to say Jonathon is okay is a bit much. He's lying against the hood of the car that's suddenly stopped and wrapped around himn, his body busted up around the chest and legs, bleeding badly. But the fact that he stopped a moving car and is in one piece is pretty damn impressive... ((Take 3 Lethal, Jonathon))

Fangwulf: *The sirens sound from the distance. Apparently the police have been alerted.*

Cori Braun: d10: per/alert: 7,7,5,9,3,10,7,

Cori Braun: d10: reroll : 10,

Cori Braun: d10: ditto: 3,

Ethan Demian Augustus: His eyes widen and he takes a step toward Jon, one hand reaching out tentatively toward his shoulder. "Jon?"

Arlett: *blinking at the sirens* shit!... we need to bail quick! ...*running still though.. cold.. she is SO cold* Adraina can we move him? *well she is the doctor and she'll try to see if anyone is .... coming to them... dressed in baclk or with I am going to kill you expresion on their faces*

Ravyn -> Adriana Carmichael: ((PM's fine. IM's bad. *G* She can fire off now, if she thinks it's fatal. Even though it's not. :) ))

Jonathon Montgomery: He coughs and groans softly. "Ohn...fuck a duck..." He presses his palms against the crunched up car and tries to push himself upright, face white with pain as things grate in his chest and legs.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *Was thinking of calling but hearing the sirens alread, but wait the accident only just happened. Glances to cori F* Yeah I think it's time to beat feet, to much of a concidence for the ambulance and police to be on the way this fast.

Snyde: *Snyde continues to rush towards Jon and the Car looking into the car to see how the driver is when he gets there*

Cori Frost: She nods her head "lead the way i'll follow"

Ravyn: ((In case people aren't clear about the positioning of Jonathon and the car...if you've seen Constantine, picture the car that hits the Latino guy with the spear in the opening of the movie. And there you have it. Basically where Jon was was stopped, the rest of the car kept moving, and now the car is kind of "around" him.))

Arlett: ((*blinks* wait... WHAT?!))

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((kinda figured which is why Roxy assumed he wasn't hurt, considering the car is more than totalled and he wasn't even knocked over*s*))

Adriana Carmichael: Frowning, she wraps her hand around a tranq gun in her bulky purse. "I think that would be to our advantage, yes. His too." She continues a quick pace toward Jonathon. "Might want to do a quick patch job first. Do you know of a safe place nearby.. or have a way to leave the area?"

Cori Braun: *moves toward the ruckus, eyes darting around nervously*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Ethan," he asks, voice tight. "The fuck 'appened?"

Winifred Miles: *Runs after Nova, intending on helping out, the sirens getting louder with each passing second.*

Novalee Van Zandt: She also rushes up to the car. A quick invitory of who all is there, more going to the front of the car to see how Jon is. "Don't move." ambulances? Already?

Arlett: *looks to Adriana, then around* you fix him, Cori keep watch.. Snyde covers you two and I get us a car *nods, and starts moving... looking for a car that seems like his owner is NOT around*

Winifred Miles: (yes, got that loud and clear.) That car doens't look right. *She mutters, skidding to a stop.*

Ethan Demian Augustus: He blinks, touching the car where it's bent. "Uhhhhhh...I'm guessing we should...go...?" He says, very softly. "Are you alright?"

Cori Braun: someone needs to check the driver, too. *moves to do so* Snyde, be eyes, please.

Arlett: *nodding to Cori, goes get them a car*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana nods to Ethan and Jonathan, a protocol smile. "Yes. WE should. Arlett is aquiring a vehicle. Are you alright to move, dear?" She lets her eyes flicker over Jonathan. Assessing his state.

Novalee Van Zandt: Blinks at the fact that the car is around Jon and looks at everyone else untrusting.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *Heads away from the scene of the unnatural accident and magic spikes as descretly as possable. Reconising a few others and having a good guess about the sirens*

Jonathon Montgomery: He chokes out a laugh at Ethan's question, eyes widening. "I just...got hit by...a car...I think I have broken ribs and both my legs hurt like hell and I'm bleeding..." He glances at the car and then back to Ethan, not trying to move beyond that. "And the car looks like an accordian..."

Fangwulf: *Ahh yes, the lovely sirens are getting closer. Help is on its way!*

Snyde: *Snyde takes up a postion behind Cori and Adriana as they move towards the car trying to keep any onlookers back from the accident*

Winifred Miles: *She goes to the side of the car door, peering in to see if the driver is still alive.*

Jonathon Montgomery: A glance at Adriana. "No."

Ethan Demian Augustus: His eyes settle on Adriana warily. She was not ever involved his statement. But for now he just watches her.

Arlett: ((I am guessing I'll have to go eat soon.. I'll try and let know with five to ten mins advance but is nearing)) *seeking a stealable car... well just that owner is not near.. she can pretend to just open it*

Cori Frost: She follows Roxy leaving the area shuddering a little at what was scene.

Snyde: *He stands there* "Allright Adriana do you thing because time is precious and short"

Arlett: ((what do I roll to get us a car! *nudges* fast))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana pulls the tranq gun from her purse and holds it close to Jonathan. "Don't resist." She states quite matter of factly. "This should improve your physical state. You'll feel a sting."

Cori Braun: *gives Winnie a nod as they both seem to be doing the same thing. peering at the driver to see if he's still breathing, even*

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Yes. All of that does concern me." But apparently not as much as Adriana.

Jonathon Montgomery: He arches a brow at Adriana. "Can't hurt...worse then my...legs."

Ravyn: ((Dex+Security or Technology, Arlett. There's several cars nearby, you just have to break into one.))

Fangwulf: *The ambulance is the first of the bunch that seems to be coming. Not long now. They can see the lights.*

Winifred Miles: *Her usual ready grin is non existant at the moment. she nods back to Cori as she looks in the car.*

Arlett: d10: dex tech: 7,8,3,5,5,9,2,

Snyde: *Snyde begins tapping his foot a bit as he sees the lights less talk more shot, he thinks to himself obviously getting nervous*

Adriana Carmichael: She nods. "Correct. Stay still." She states with a tiny smile. A joke? Maybe. Hard to tell. She squeezes off a point blank shot to the man, darting him with her own special mix. (life spell, heal, extended cast, wp on first)

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 10,3,5,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 6,8,9,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 2,1,8,

Ethan Demian Augustus: "Cori?" He asks softly, when he registers his Cori (B). And Roxy is here? Coincidences in this city run toward the insane....

Jonathon Montgomery: "FUCK!"

Arlett: HURRy! *yelled as she procures the car... and will try and get it as close to them as posible*

Novalee Van Zandt: "What are you doing?" she watches her put a tranq gun to a man involved in a car accident, help him that might kill him. One hand reaches behind her to the back of her jacket.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *was down the block a bit slips into a alley between two building and ducks into it. Stoping a moment to take a look back at whats going on still.*

Ravyn: Throughout it all, the man who was across the street at the park has remained, watching. He looks at the group gathering around Jonathon with some interest, a cell phone being slipped out of his hand. He hits two buttons and raises it to his ear, speaking quietly as he turns and starts to walk away.

Snyde: *Snyde watches Novalee as she reaches her hand back*

Cori Braun: *blinks. now she recognizes Ethan. gives the man a nod and a worried, swift smile. tries to open the driver's door with her double-gloved hands*

Arlett: Just get him out of there! *well... is that so hard?!.. humm.. maybe but!*

Fangwulf: *The ambulance pulls up with its rearing lights; the cop cars aren't far away.*

Snyde: *He begins to look really nervous as he waits* "Allright its time to move, Now" *he says to Adriana and Cori*

Winifred Miles: *Pulls off her mittens, dropping them to the ground as she tries to help Cori b. Pry the driver's door open. She'll peek in the back seat to see if there's anyone there as well.*

Adriana Carmichael: After injecting him with the reconstruction serum she nods to Snyde. "Relocate him to the car Arlett aquired. We haven't much time." She turns with an icy glare to Novalee. "And you. Don't ever touch me again."

Ravyn: ((Per+Awareness allowed for all with Adriana's magicky fun. 1 succ, magic, 2 from the car wreck sceen and it's life if you have it...3 succ it's Adriana, 4 succ PM me)) Jonathon suddenly feels his body mend itself from the impact of the car...he's not even SORE at this point.

Cori Braun -> Ravyn: ((was that guy acting oddly before? as in--not reacting with shock, horror, but yet interested? Cori looked around for anyone like that and got 6 sux to do so.))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Per+Awareness: 7,8,7,1,8,3,

Snyde: d10: per+aware: 2,8,8,6,10,9,

Arlett: d10: aw: 8,10,7,8,

Cori Braun: shit..*hisses under her breath*

Snyde -> Ravyn: ((ping))

Winifred Miles: d10: per+awareness: 5,9,3,9,2,

Arlett -> Ravyn: wow for once 4

Cori Braun: d10: p/aw: 9,4,3,2,6,5,

Arlett: MOVE!!! all inside!... * if Snyde is relocating him.. then they get to get the HELL out! *

Fangwulf: d10: per+awareness: 5,9,2,9,

Novalee Van Zandt: ((Novalee never touched Adriana, she slipped her own hand to the back of her own coat))

Jonathon Montgomery: He's still pale, still covered in blood but damn...Feels good. Shakily, he eases himself out of the mess that is the car's hood, swallowing convulsively a couple times.

Snyde: *Snyde looks at the man* "im going to move you buddy because we have to go now allright?" *he says before reaching out to the man*

Ravyn -> Cori Braun: ((Shit. *Wince* Sorry, that was in the bug FUBAR part. Yes, yes he was.))

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones -> Ravyn: ((IF Roxy notices the man and is on the same side of the street as he and can go parrel to his direction to descretly follow him she will. If not she will just trying to memorise his face as best she can))

Arlett: *and gets ready to drive off the moment they are all on*

Winifred Miles: *Again the telltale tingle of magic, from around here, but she's too busy trying to get the door open.*

Adriana Carmichael: (lol. my bad. misread)

Ethan Demian Augustus: "C'mon," he says to Jon, with a quick glance at Cori B to see how she seems to feel about these strangers.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Nah...I'm goin' with my bud," he says, backing towards Ethan.

Cori Braun: we need to go extra fast, people. *a note of warning in her voice. right the frell NOW. *and she's moving. Arl, Eth, squashed guy, Adri, Snyde.......there's likely not enough room for her in there unless it's a really big car*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana shuffles into the car with the group, trying her best to keep her long hair in front of her face as not to be recognized by the rescue persons.

Ravyn -> Arlett: ((Arlett feels Adriana's Resonance...Dynamic, Question. She also feels an overpowering sense of Quintessence energy coming off of Jonathon...like someone feels like when they've just first Awakened.))

Winifred Miles: (how's the driver of the car?)

Cori Braun: *flashes a swift smile to Ethan* they're cool. move, ~now~!

Snyde: *He shrugs* "Suit yourself buddy" *he says as he moves towards the car that Arlett has aquired slipping inside it*

Arlett: Just shove in..!

Fangwulf: *The paramedic hops out of the front of the ambulance, and two come out of the back, with the stretcher.*

Ravyn -> Snyde: ((Snyde feels Adriana's Resonance...Dynamic, Questing. She also feels an overpowering sense of Quintessence energy coming off of Jonathon...like someone feels like when they've just first Awakened.))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana will sit on snyde's lap if necessary. Though she hardly will look happy about it.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Ethan?" He glances at the man and then the car everyone's piling into.

Arlett: *double looking to Jonathon for a moment, blinks SHIT*^guy.. police coming,.. you wanna answer how is you are unharmed from that?! *poitns to the car* get in!

Ethan Demian Augustus: "C'mon." He pulls at Jon's wrist. If Cori says they're cool, he's with them.

Novalee Van Zandt: Feeling the presence of magic she keeps her hand behind her back. The ambulance there already. That is not good. "Sister." she says to Winnie not wishing to give any names, but to get her attention.

Snyde: *Snyde watches Jon, poor bastard he thinks to himself, Kansas just went out the window*

Arlett: MOVE

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and climbs in with Ethan, sliding the man into his lap if he has to so they'll all fit.

Arlett: *Once they are ALL in she starts driving off, just off and away from there*

Cori Braun: *if she can fit, she'll get in the car. otherwise--she's walking*

Ravyn -> Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((She's on the other side as him...roll Int+Alert to memorize))

Ethan Demian Augustus: Pulling toward the car.

Fangwulf: *The first police car arrives, to go for the car. The second... parks on the other side of the road. Blocking? Possibly. From the first, tow cops emerge, heading for the damaged car, immediately, to pry the driver out.*

Arlett: CORI IN! *and on driving* ((Eveyrone is is someones lap she fits *G*))

Ravyn: The driver of the car is unconscious, laid out over the steering wheel and very badly bleeding.

Arlett: ((If I got this right there was like a park right? or just the stree and the sidewalk?))

Winifred Miles: *Hears Novalee and backs away from teh car to let the paramedics do their thing. Hopefully there is a crowd around and she can just push to the back and disappear down a back alley.*

Cori Braun: ((*L* over six feet of female...this's going to look like a clown car...)) *hisses once inside. hopefully not draped over Adriana* MiBs active. we need to get the fuck out of here asap.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: d10: Int + Alrt: 9,3,6,5,3,9,

Fangwulf: *The car door is opened, and the driver is pulled out; from the second car, two cops emerge. One holds up his hand at the fleeing car.*

Fangwulf: d10: Arete: 10,4,1,

Ravyn: ((Yes, Arlett. As mentioned, there was a large Park, City Hall Park, on the other side of the street from Jonathon and Ethan. Not Central Park big, but big.))

Cori Braun: ((*L* over six feet of female...this's going to look like a clown car...)) *hisses once inside. hopefully not draped over Adriana* MiBs active. we need to get the fuck out of here asap.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: d10: Int + Alrt: 9,3,6,5,3,9,

Fangwulf: *The car door is opened, and the driver is pulled out; from the second car, two cops emerge. One holds up his hand at the fleeing car.*

Fangwulf: d10: Arete: 10,4,1,

Ravyn: ((Yes, Arlett. As mentioned, there was a large Park, City Hall Park, on the other side of the street from Jonathon and Ethan. Not Central Park big, but big.))

Ethan Demian Augustus: He settles easily in Jon's lap. "Easy. Everything's gonna be okay."

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon huddles around Ethan in the clown car, shaking hard as he presses his face into the man's back, his arms clinging just for something solid and real to hang onto.

Novalee Van Zandt: A hand to Winnie's shoulder, backing away herself from the accident. She wwhispers to Winnie.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *Taking a moment to peek around the corner of the alley to watch the man a moment doing her best to memorise his face, once he turns away she turns down the alley and starts to hurry down it. Using anything to obscure her from the street such as obsticals.*

Arlett: ((perfect.. ok... I am getting the police car is bloking our way to drive off.. Arlett will simply.. drive through the park, the path that seems with less snow.. they do keep them clean after all))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana rubs her temples. Never had these kinds of problems out of her cadavers.. "Snyde, dear.. can you clear the way for arlett. I could certainly go for some luck right about now. It's not as though we're making a stealthy exit."

Fangwulf: *The other is writing something down quickly, watching the car. A camera is in his hand.*

Snyde: *Snyde looks back at Jonathon* "Your going to be allright buddy or at least as allright as you can be at this point" *he says with a deep sigh hopeing to not have to shoot anyone*

Cori Braun: *shakes her head* this isn't going to work........

Arlett: Snyde.. wrack camera *well easier! she'll drive off * ((eh.... I'll start rolling drive))

Winifred Miles: *goes with Novalee, listening.*

Arlett: d10: driving off? : 1,3,2,4,3,1,

Jonathon Montgomery: He grunts noncommitally at Snyde's words, thumb rubbing the platinum band on his left hand, turning it nervously as he clings to Ethan, wiping blood from the rainbow hued semiprescious stones.

Arlett: ((*blinks.. good damm....))

Cori Frost: She runs after roxy "we should head home"

Snyde: *snyde slips out a pair of dice and begins rolling them a bit in his hand as he sees the camera focusing his will through the dice onto the camera* (Slay Machine 1 wp 2 quint spent)

Winifred Miles: Let's go through the crowd. *She whispers in return.*

Ravyn: ((Arlett, I would just like to remind you that parks have trees. And people in them. And park benches, and landmarks, maybe art pieces...and are not built for cars. You can try it, and it may work. I'm just letting you know, it's going to be a more difficult drive roll.))

Snyde: d10: arete: 10,4,6,

Adriana Carmichael: (lmao! The tires explode from all the damn people in the car!)

Ethan Demian Augustus: He winces a little, he's a bit fragile to be clung to like this, but he allows it, eyes closing.

Fangwulf: *The memory card suddenly fails on his digital camera. that is QUITE disappointing.*

Jonathon Montgomery: ((and Arlett kills us all, slamming us into a building! *LOL*))

Cori Braun: ((and dinner time for me. *SIGHS* damn it.)) shit, not going to work. we need out of the car. *and if she can do so without risking losing precious body parts, she'll try to open a door*

Arlett: ((nhe... I don't think I'm taking the car to far... *eyes roll* or... I was gonna say driving throw the walkside around the car blocking... but.... but... impateince is a baaaad advicer))

Novalee Van Zandt: Yeah like she could be lost in a crowd, but she nods to Winnie. trying to keep an eyes on the cops, and the car trying to get away.

Cori Braun -> Ravyn: ((i'll be back as soon as i can, and i'm killing my nick so i don't time out.))

Ravyn: ((Well. There's that. *Blink*)) Arlett tries to drive the car into the park...sadly, when she tries to hit the brake, her foot slips and she accelrates, promptly ramming the thing into the first tree she sees at about 45 miles an hour. ((Everyone in the car? Soaks))

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: sta: 7,9,7,5,

Cori Braun: d10: soak: 3,4,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: soak: 3,4,

Arlett: d10: soak : 3,6,

Snyde: d10: soak: 8,6,4,

Ethan Demian Augustus: d10: soak: 5,9,

Ravyn: ((Jon, you still have the same soak pool as before for this scene. Just a heads up. *S*))

Winifred Miles: *She jerks around at the sound of the car crash.* Oh crap! *just in time to see the carload of probable mages hit the tree.*

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Oh! *G*))

Ravyn: d10: Crash Damage (Bash): 9,9,4,9,4,9,4,

Arlett: ((and I'll have to dash for dinner soon.. giving it ten mins aprox, whimpers))

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: rest of my soak: 4,5,2,8,1,1,

Novalee Van Zandt: She gapes as the get away car crashes. If she is correct, then there was going to be a mess soon. A magical one.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((shouldn't have rolled th exter dice*L*))

Ravyn: The impact is...well, jarring, to say the least, and the car is VERY indrivable. ((Adriana and Cori, 4 Bashing. Arlett and Ethan, 3 Bashing. Snyde and Jon, 2 Bashing.))

Arlett -> Ravyn: ((*whimpers* I make huge mistake and I have to go now))

Ravyn -> Arlett: ((Is okay. Will say Arlett & Cori are unconscious from Impact))

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon groans and leans back in the seat, rubbing his forehead. "You, okay, Ethan?"

Arlett: ((Guys.. I am SORRY I need to baril now for about 30 mins or so *whimpers* be back as soon as I can* sorry sorry! and sorry for crashing! *puts Areltt on Rav's hands*))

Arlett -> Ravyn: ((*nod, hugz* sowwwy!))

Ravyn: ((And for ease of things with departing players)) Cori & Arlett are unconscious from the Impact...the other four are hurt, but can still move.

Arlett: (Unlogs not to drag people off their nicks))

Snyde: *Snyde groans a bit as he looks at Arlett* "Where in the hell did you learn how to fucking drive" *he says as he begins to try and open the door to get out of the car*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana groans in pain, crumpling forward.

Novalee Van Zandt: Another wshipered comment to her cabal mate.

Winifred Miles: *Torn...those people need help...this is looking more and more like a set up.*

Fangwulf: *The cops are now running towards the car, smoking, taking into a radio. All four of them. During the vain escape escapade, the paramedics have loaded up the injured party and driven away.*

Winifred Miles: *listens.*

Ethan Demian Augustus: Ethan just crumples, unconscious.

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *Nearing the other end of the alley she glances back at the sound of yet another car wreck doing her best to take a peek before heading out the oppiste end of the alley and trying not to draw attetion to herself and get lost in the crowds.*

Ravyn -> Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((And apologies, Roxy did get a damn good memory of his face.))

Ethan Demian Augustus -> Ravyn: [Someone's at Incap, just as your note.]

Fangwulf: Step away from the vehicle, and hold your hands up.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Shit." He frowns and pulls Ethan back into his arms, easing him into as comfortable a position as he can in the car. "Why the HELL are we runnin' from the fucking cops?"

Ravyn -> Ethan Demian Augustus: ((Gotcha.))

Snyde: "Come on Adriana, if you ever want that Coffee you gotta move now" *he says as he kicks the door open*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones -> Ravyn: ((your bussy and Roxy was heading out of the scene per the norm for her, pity should couldn't trail him. more her deal than this*s*. I was just going to mention it later when you was less bussy. Go on with your Keystone mages*G*))

Cori Frost: She frowns hearing it but continues forward with Roxy. "i wish we could do somthin..." she mummers softly.

Novalee Van Zandt: After the whisper she starts to head for the new car wreck. Noting the cops are going to get there before herself and Winnie.

Adriana Carmichael: She grumbles "This is the LAST time.. I'm trusting a goddamned teenager for anything. I require coffee. Get us OUT of here, Snyde." She'll topple after him.

Ravyn -> Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: ((I prefer Keystone Kabal, myself. *G*))

Winifred Miles: d10: arete: 5,8,

Fangwulf: *From the other side of the vehicle, step out two men, in black suits, shines shoes, sunglasses. The works. One is armed, the other has the looks of someone that doesn't need to be.*

Snyde: *Snyde gets out of the car putting Adriana's arm across his neck as he begins to walk further into the park as quickly as he can manage*

Winifred Miles: *Peerign through the gauntlet to see what spirits are around.*

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: *huffs out of breath already, damn, sweet tasting cigarettes... damnit now she is craving one even as she huffs out of breath* We are, where getting away so we can tell people what happened. Sides I got a good look at that guy, if he is what I think that is going to be usefully. *trying to look calm composed and disapear into the foot traffic of NYC*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana is dragged along. She digs in her purse to reload her tranq gun, with her back to the officers in question. "If I heal you.. will you move faster? What about the others?"

Novalee Van Zandt: As she approaches the car she starts to sing "Amazing grace" the first song that pops in her head. ((She is doing this so that she can speed up her and winnie's actions, using Time of 3 to do so. ))

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: There's a few spirits around...mostly Pattern spiders.

Snyde: *He nods a bit as he moves his other hand down prepared to draw if nesscary*

Jonathon Montgomery: And, as no one answers him, Jon eases out of the car, settling Ethan on the seat as he does so, hands rising.

Cori Frost: She nods her "i know...who do we contact now?...well when we get back home"

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Char+Preformance: 8,4,6,2,

Ravyn: ((Roll it, Nov.))

Adriana Carmichael: She nods and injects him in the side. (same drill, life effect heal, no extend, wp)

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Arete(Q+W): 3,4,2,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 5,9,6,

Anastasia "Roxy" Jones: A few, but lets first worry about getting out of here with what we know and then worry about who to tell it to.*going to avoid the subway and go a a couple of blocks on foot before looking for a cab*

Winifred Miles: d10: arete: 1,9,

Cori Frost: "i should have drove today " she grumbles as she does her best to keep up.

Fangwulf: I said, keep your hands on your head, sir, *the voice says, rather stoically, to Snyde reaching for his gun. As for the other two, their focus seems on Novalee.*

Novalee Van Zandt: Still singing she focuses on the words of the song.

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Arete: 4,9,9,

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon crouches as he's ignored and leans into the car to check Ethan's pulse, curling fingers over his wrist.

Snyde: *Snyde lifts his hands to his head as he stands there*

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: int med - pulse?: 7,10,6,

Winifred Miles: *Whatever she was trying to do, didn't work. *

Ravyn -> Jonathon Montgomery: ((He's got a pulse...he's stable. Just very beat up.))

Fangwulf: d10: per+alert: 10,7,8,1,7,

Winifred Miles -> Ravyn: *trying to get the attention of the pattern spiders, but didn't make her arete role.*

Jonathon Montgomery: He smoothes back Ethan's hair and then stands, moving slowly towards one of the cops.

Fangwulf: *The second of the first team of two cops holds up his gun.* ((Is Roxy trying to run?))

Novalee Van Zandt: Let the cops look at her strangely, they normally do anyways.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana slips the tranq gun back into her purse before looking over her shoulder to the officers shouting at snyde, still clinging weakly to the man.

Ravyn: Novalee's effect goes off, settling on Winnie and her. ((Rest of the scene, Winnie & Nov have two actions a turn; only thing you can't do two of in a turn is magic rolls.))

Winifred Miles: d10: arete: 6,7,

Ravyn: ((Roxy is a ways down the street from the first accident, and nowhere near the second one which is in the park, for clarification.))

Fangwulf: *The first of the two cops starts approaching, while the second team watching Novalee, one of them, anyway, raises a hand.* Fleeing the scene of a crime is a felony, you know that?

Winifred Miles: *Using spirit 2 to try to convince the pattern spiders to bothch up cop #2's gun.*

Snyde: *Snyde nods* "Whats the crime?"

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: A couple pattern spiders look her way, and curiously approach.

Fangwulf: Witness to the accident. You and your folk were running. I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you to come downtown with us. Answer a few questions.

Fangwulf: d10: Arete (Cop three): 9,3,7,

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: ((Gotta RP it out.)) The spiders chitter to her in their static-sounding voices, asking what she would like.

Adriana Carmichael: She narrows her eyes at the officer. "You can't incarcerate us for bearing witness to an accident. Any questions you have can be filled right here. Allow me to fill out a report so I can be on my way."

Fangwulf: ((Per+Awareness, those at the car))

Snyde: "Witness to an accident I dont beleive is a crime" *he says with a smile to the officer*

Novalee Van Zandt: "Oh I am aware officer. Doesn't mean that passer's by can't look. Isn't that why the term 'lookie-loo' came from?" Soft tone as if she couldn't hurt a fly. But it was the suite that she was more worried about.

Snyde: d10: Per+aware: 4,4,5,8,6,2,

Winifred Miles -> Ravyn: *respectfully voiced, she's much more at ease with city spirits than natural ones.* Please, I need the gun to malfunction..could you do that?

Jonathon Montgomery: "Officer?" Jon rubs the back of his neck, shivering slightly in his torn up and bloodied clothing. "My buddy's hurt...Out like a light. Anyway we can get him some medical attention?"

Adriana Carmichael: d10: per+aware: 3,8,10,2,

Winifred Miles: *Letting Novalee do the talking. maybe she's shy.*

Fangwulf: I was going to charge you with destruction of stolen property too. The car's not yours, I think. but let's start with one thing at a... what's that?

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Per+Awareness: 6,6,6,4,5,8,

Snyde: *Snyde looks at the offcer when he pauses abruptly really not wanting to have to shoot the man who was only doing his job*

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: The Pattern Spiders look at each other, and then back to Winnifred. "In return for Essence, we shall." ((Basically asking for a Quint to share between them.))

Fangwulf: ((One success... here thar be magic. Two successes... it's coming from cop-direction. Three successes, it's the first cop that stepped out of the car. Four or more, ping me.))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana clings a bit more tightly to Snyde.

Snyde: ((What are the spheres being used for those of us with 2 or more success))

Fangwulf: ((Do you have Forces, Snyde?))

Snyde: ((no thats why I was asking))

Ravyn -> Cori Braun: Cori B regains consciousness, finding much pain. She's in the car with an unconscious Arlett and Ethan, Jon's outside the car and so are Snyde and Adriana, and there's cops around the car.

Winifred Miles -> Ravyn: Of course. *She murmers.*

Fangwulf: ((Then you don't know what it is.))

Snyde: ((I know but it is usually posted anyway))

Cori Braun: d10: p/aw: 2,2,5,8,3,7,

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: The spirits chitter, coming up to Winnifred and each biting her in the leg. ((No damage, it just hurts a lot.)) They draw out some of her Quintessence, and then turn, heading toward the cops.

Cori Braun: *groans softly and then the fine hairs on her body twitch. decides that, for this particular moment, laying still's a grand idea. listening*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's eyes flick amongst the cops, wary and nervous. She purses her lips and tries to reason a way out of the situation. One that doesn't involve gunfire.

Cori Braun -> Ravyn: ((thanks!))

Winifred Miles: *She winces and yelps at something, jumping up and down on one leg.*

Snyde: *Snyde just stands there waiting as he watches the officers*

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon frowns, still moving towards the nearest officer, starting to look irritated. "Hit by a fucking car...dragged into a goddamned getaway car...crashed...Buddy's fucking unconscious..."He exhales slowly. "OFFICER!"

Novalee Van Zandt: A Frown towards one cop in particular. She wished she knew more about her fellow cabal mate. Now was not the time though too many people still around and watching.

Fangwulf: *The officer closest raises his head, and the other approaches, to check it out. The other two remain at a very safe distance.*

Winifred Miles: Thank you. *She says softly, then looks up at Novalee, blinking a bit to refocus.*

Fangwulf: d10: per+alertness: 6,5,5,6,5,

Fangwulf: *The second of the officers' eyes widen, and he yells,* Get out of the car, now! *It's not an order, it's panic.* ((Roll per+alertness, everyone with consciousness.))

Cori Braun: d10: per/alert: 6,4,3,4,2,3,2,

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: per alert: 8,1,8,2,

Ethan Demian Augustus -> Ravyn: [And fairly soon, I may need to go - though with Ethan unconscious, that's not as difficult as it might be.]

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Per+Alert: 6,4,1,6,3,7,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: per+alert: 5,5,5,7,9,

Winifred Miles: d10: per/alertness: 3,3,9,9,5,7,

Snyde: d10: per+alert: 1,3,7,2,6,1,

Snyde: *he shrugs his shoulders not really understanding what the cops yelling about*

Winifred Miles: *Looks around, wide eyed.* Somethings burning! *oh we are starting to panic.*

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: Winnifred sees the Pattern Spiders go up and start to weave their web around the indicated cop's gun.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana mutters under her breath in response to the order "Wouldn't that be fleeing the scene of a crime... officer?" However she does scoot back away from the car, urging snyde to do so as well just in case.

Winifred Miles: *Looks at the car.*

Snyde: *Snyde moves further away from the car with Adriana trying to figure out what has the cop so worried*

Adriana Carmichael: Her eyes widen, with a pained grab to her side. "Snyde, grab arlett! Now!"

Cori Braun: *just because she's still too woozy to really have a clue what the cop's yelling for doesn'tmean she wants to stay cramped up in this car....attempts to extract herself,poking Arlett as she does*

Ravyn: d10: Gnosis: 2,10,6,9,1,

Arlett: ((finally!... recap, please?))

Snyde: *he looks a bit confused when Adriana yells for him to grab Arlett glanceing to the cop as he moves forward slowly to see if he will be allowed to do so*

Novalee Van Zandt: And she has her sights on the one who did it too. She moves so that she is nearer to the cop who pulled this trick of his. If she can that is.

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon's eyes widen and he pales further, turning back to the car at a run to get Ethan.

Fangwulf: *Actually, and surprisingly enough, the cops both seem to be pushing the people out of the car.*

Ravyn: Arlett regains consciousness at Cori B's, finding much pain. She's in the car with Cori B and unconscious Ethan, Jon's outside the car and so are Snyde and Adriana, and there's cops around the car.

Adriana Carmichael: "Quickly!" She yells, stumbling backward. "The car's about to go up. Get her OUT!"

Winifred Miles: *Backing away from the car.*

Snyde: *Snyde runs towards the car hopeing not to get shot on the way there and grabs for Arlett trying to Jerk her out of the car*

Cori Braun: *blinks* shit....*mumbles and tries to force herself to move faster. despite hurting. hurting's not her friend*

Fangwulf: ((If you run, Novalee, you can reach him. Both of those cops are at a safe distance, as are the men in black suits.))

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon catches hold of Ethan's wrist and tries to haul him out of the car and up onto his shoulder in a fireman's carry. ((What would I roll?))

Fangwulf: ((Dex+ath, Jon.))

Arlett: *groans, frowning, looking first around, then out...*shit....*reaching for her back... cause theres thing that she can use there* (car is gonna blow up?!))

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: dex ath: 6,8,3,7,5,

Ravyn -> Winifred Miles: The Spiders' job done, they step back to watch with some interest.

Snyde: ((is it Dex+Ath to drag an Arlett as well))

Fangwulf: ((Yeap, Snyde.))

Cori Braun: ((dex to see if Cori can get herself out of there?))

Arlett: *and.... starts trying to get out of the car at Adriana's yell, with another* shit *it hurts and she is still cold!*

Snyde: d10: Dex+ath: 6,5,9,2,1,

Jonathon Montgomery: He groans and gets Ethan over his shoulder, moving away from the car as quick as he can. "Wake up, man...If y'wake up I'll kiss ya. C'mon..."

Winifred Miles: *She her eyes unfocus a moment, and then refocus as she continues to back away from the soon to be exploding car.*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana covers her mouth with a daintily gloved hand, eyes glues to the car. Anticipating. Nervous.

Cori Braun: d10: dex: 5,9,

Novalee Van Zandt: Pretending she is trying to get away from the car so as not to get caught up in it going up she runs towards the cops. She knows they are bad, at least one of them. Eyeing the suits as well.

Arlett: ((if it helps helping Snyde getting her out I'll roll...*eyes the die roller* it isn't loving me tonight))

Fangwulf: ((All right... how close is everyone to the car?))

Winifred Miles: d10: willpower: 6,4,6,8,9,

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Jon's moving away from it but he does have a grown man slung over his shoulder so I'd assume he's probably less then 15 feet away.))

Snyde: ((Snyde is attempting to drag Arlett out of the car and then hit the dirt with her after getting away from it a bit))

Fangwulf: d10: dex+ath: 9,7,8,3,9,

Fangwulf: d10: dex+ath: 6,9,3,10,5,

Cori Braun: ((Cori's probably about as far along as Jon, perhaps a bit behind. she's slightly mangled, after all.))

Winifred Miles: *She's shaking, but seeing the others are getting away from the car, she keeps her attention on the nicely dressed but very nasty men.*

Adriana Carmichael: (Adriana had the initial stumble.. a stagger away until the cops said to stop. backing away with snyde again.. then backing away again after she told him to go back in. I'd say 5-10 yards by now, could be less.)

Novalee Van Zandt: Winnie and Novalee never got too close to the car, and she is running towards the cops that are a safe distance away.))

Arlett: ((dunno is trying to help Snyde get her off? she is awake now))

Fangwulf: *With the assistance of the two cops pushing them away, they manage to get away. The car's engine explodes into a fiery deathtrap.*

Jonathon Montgomery: The blast of heat at his back makes Jon stumble and he eases Ethan to the ground before just sitting down next to him. "Fuck me...This is just not my goddamned day."

Novalee Van Zandt: ((Fang do I need a dex+Athletic's to see if she could have gotten to the cops/MiB's to use the explosion to her bennifit?))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana gives a tiny gasp, stepping on her tippy toes to see if anyone's hurt. She doesn't go any closer. Just in case she has to bolt she wants as much distance as possible between them. (question, upon explosion would there be say.. a cloud of smoke between adriana and the cops?)

Fangwulf: *And now... the men in black suits are moving in, one drawing a gun. One of the good cops is caught in the brief explosion. Stop drop and roll. The second is knocked down by a flying bit of shrapnel.*

Fangwulf: ((Dex+ath, yes, Novalee.))

Fangwulf: ((A big thick black cloud pours from the top of the car, yes. But on one side are the MiB's, and the other are the dirty cops.))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Ath: 6,7,8,6,6,

Winifred Miles: *She whirls around at the sound of the explosion, staring as the flames leap high.*

Winifred Miles: d10: willpwer: 9,4,8,9,5,

Arlett: *yells when the explossion happens.. yes.. just eaking up to caboon IS confussing* where are the others? *to Snyde.. tryig to get her bearings on*

Snyde: *Snyde lays there with Arlett on the ground after the explosion*

Fangwulf: *In almost a cinematic glow, Novalee is kicked by said explosion, surfing on air, almost, blown towards the Man casting. He is actually caught off guard, though the second draws his gun, and starts drawing patterns in the air.*

Novalee Van Zandt: Her other action after running would be to draw the Sai's from beneath her jacket, one in each hand (Ambedextrous)

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana reaches her hand into her purse to dig out a pill. While waiting for the smoke to clear, she chokes the thing down. (life, heal self two rounds, wp on first, 3 wp spent this scene)

Cori Braun: *peers about, tiredly, to see if there's a chance in heck of leaving now.....oy, vey!!*

Snyde: *he slowly slips his hand into his pocket and pulls a pair of dice holding them in his hand*

Cori Braun: *and the answer to that would probably be a resounding NO. she reaches into a pocket painfully, mumbling to herself*

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 7,9,4,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 6,2,4,

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: per alert: 4,2,1,9,

Jonathon Montgomery: He's oblivious to the men in suits, the hand gestures...the guns. He's just sitting there, one hand on Ethan's chest, staring at the pretty flames and swearing softly under his breath.

Fangwulf: ((So... Jon and Ethan are on one side of the car, alone?))

Adriana Carmichael: (was @ 4 bash, 4 sux on heal.)

Snyde: *he lays there with Arlett* "We have a bit of a problem kiddo" *he says softly to her*

Arlett: *Growns, in the ground, still trying to get on what's happening... reaches for the electric gun.. well the gun with electric bullets* we.... need... to go...

Winifred Miles -> Ravyn: *Yelling to the pattern spiders.* I'll give you another quint if you can stop the men in the suits! *pointing towards the MIB.*

Jonathon Montgomery: ((I believe so yes))

Winifred Miles -> Ravyn: d10: arete: 8,3,

Snyde: *he nods to her* "You know anything to help us with this mess?" *he says softly*

Fangwulf: ((Okay, NOW so it doesn't get confusing, Init.))

Arlett: *Peers to him, then around*

Snyde: d10: init: 8,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: init + seven: 3,

Snyde: ((15)

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Init: 5,

Winifred Miles: d10: init: 7,

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: : 8,

Arlett: *blinking* dunno... I can .. try.. knock them off....

Novalee Van Zandt: ((11))

Jonathon Montgomery: ((13))

Adriana Carmichael: (10)

Arlett: d10: init : 5,

Cori Braun: d10: : 6,

Fangwulf: d10: Init (MiB): 5,

Fangwulf: d10: Init (Cops): 1,

Fangwulf: ((Cops are at 7, MiB are at 11))

Cori Braun: ((10))

Winifred Miles: (ll)

Arlett -> Ravyn: ((Ravquestion.. I am at less 2 due to damage.. do I have to add the less one due to frost bite too?!))

Ravyn: ((Everyone, make sure you're counting your wound penalties here. By my count, Adriana & Cori are at -2, Snyde & Jon are at -1. Arlett, your -1 from Paradox doesn't count toward Init.))

Arlett: ((yea but I have four levels of injury))

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Sorry! :-) Thank you!))

Cori Braun: ((sorry, was told it was -1. then Cori's init is 9.))

Adriana Carmichael: (on a previous roll, I got 3 sux to heal snyde. he was at 2 bash if i'm remembering right. I just got 4 sux on a self heal, was at 4 bash, was waiting for an update on that.)

Ravyn: ((Thank you, Adriana. Sorry about that...Adriana is healed. StreamLined Combat rules. Declare and roll, slowest to fastest, then I put it together in proper order. Order of declare is Cops, Cori, Arlett, Adriana, MIB, Novalee, Spirits, Jon, Snyde.))

Ravyn: ((Sorry. Forgot Winnie. Order of declare is Cops, Cori, Arlett, Adriana, Winnie, Novalee and MIB, Spirits, Jon, Snyde.))

Snyde: ((have a quick question how many cops are there?))

Fangwulf: ((Two cops, two MiB left. The good guys have mysteriously been knocked out.))

Fangwulf: *One of the cops is casting (Forces), using his gun as a foci, to start another fire. Heh heh... fire. The other is simply trying not to get hacked into itty bitty pieces by the swift-moving Sai.*

Fangwulf: d10: Arete: 3,9,10,

Cori Braun: *simply tries to shuffle close enough to scatter some of her homemade mace about. sea salt and several peppers ground fine, in a base of pepper oil. in a wide-nozzled tiny spray bottle*

Arlett: *She'll look around... to the cop waving his gun... aim and shoot* ((Forces 3... bulltes contain chemics that shoot electricity... not aiming to kill aiming to knock him out...))((will on the magic... rolling first, the rolling magic))

Arlett: d10: firing: 3,6,6,2,

Arlett: d10: forces: 9,9,9,

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana peers nervously about, a hand slipping back into her purse to make a firm grip on her glock. Ready. (remaining defensive)

Winifred Miles: *Winnie is running towards the MIB using the gun, gonna tackle him.*

Fangwulf: *The MiB are both moving towards Ethan and Jon, going, it seems for a capture. One of them has a dart gun, and is aiming. The other is backing one up.*

Fangwulf: d10: dex+firearms: 8,3,10,10,3,4,

Winnifred Miles: (adding willpower for 1 auto suxx)

Ravyn: ((Novalee-P's comp has restarted, she's told me her action. Posting and rolling for her. Winnie, roll Dex+Brawl to tackle the MIB)) Novalee tries to stab the closest cop with her Sai.

Ravyn: d10: Nov Dex+Melee: 2,7,5,9,2,4,6,

Winnifred Miles: d10: dex+ athletics: 8,5,

Ravyn -> Fangwulf: In the Umbra, the spirits move to Calcify the MIB's, one on each.

Winnifred Miles: (oops, reroll need an extra di, still adding the 1 willpower though)

Winnifred Miles: d10: dex + brawl: 5,9,1,

Ravyn: d10: Gnosis Spirit One: 2,8,2,2,7,4,

Ravyn: d10: Gnosis Spirit Two: 10,2,8,4,3,9,

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon is still staring at the burning car, shivering, bloody...In shock maybe. Swearing creatively enough to make a sailor blush.

Snyde: *shakes the dice in his hand* (Entropy 2 effect to make gun shots easier, 2 rds wp both rolls quint on first one))

Snyde: d10: Arete: 2,3,4,

Ravyn: ((Fang, roll Dex+Dodge for the cop trying not to be Elektra-d.))

Fangwulf: d10: Dex+dodge: 6,10,2,7,8,7,

Fangwulf: ((For the record... I've been trying to forget Elektra for YEARS.))

Winnifred Miles: (and all that work...destroyed in one second. *lol*)

Ravyn: ((You can't have been trying, Elektra only came out a year ago. Unless you mean the comic book.))

Fangwulf: ((I think her, I think Daredevil. And then a little piece of me dies inside.))

Ravyn: ((RECAP: SNYDE starts casting, while JON is in shock. The MIB's find themselves moving veeeery slow. One of them is not moving at all. NOVALEE tries to stabby stabby, but the COP does an amazing whirl and duck to get out of her way. WINNIE tackles the one who is, but he still gets his dart off. ADRIANA readies her gun in the purse of doom, ARLETT blasts the COP aiming his gun ((Soak 9 Bashing, COP)). CORI gets closer to the COPS with her home-made mace.

Fangwulf: d10: Soak: 1,4,9,

Arlett: ((gha!...))

Ravyn: ((Winnie, roll Strength + 1 Damage; MIB, roll soak. MIB, also roll Dart + 2 Damage; Jon, roll Soak and then Stamina if you don't soak.))

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: soak: 4,7,10,5,4,6,5,6,10,8,

Winnifred Miles: d10: strength+: 3,10,3,2,

Adriana Carmichael: (Fangwulf: *The MiB are both moving towards Ethan and Jon, going, it seems for a capture. One of them has a dart gun, and is aiming. The other is backing one up.*, I was under the impression that he was aiming and not firing this round. Was I wrong?)

Fangwulf: ((He fired this round, but he was firing while moving. I rolled the attack.))

Fangwulf: d10: MiB soak: 2,1,2,

Ravyn: ((It was posted in an unclear manner, Adri, but Fang also rolled Dex+FA immediately after, that was foir the aimed Dart gun.))

Fangwulf: d10: MiB damage: 1,4,4,1,7,5,6,

Ravyn: The MIB is knocked to the ground, and the dart bounces off Jon. Stopping cars, darts bouncing off...maybe he really IS Superman.

Ravyn: ((Round 2; Init Order is Cop, Cori, Two MIB's (One immoblized), Arlett, Adriana, Winnie, Novalee, Spirits, Jon, Snyde.))

Ravyn: ((SORRY! Second actions for Novalee and Winnie. My bad...not used to those in Mage. :P))

Fangwulf: *The remaining standing cop again goes defensive, seeing his compatriot get knocked out hard and cold.*

Novalee Van Zandt: Let's try this again. Using the cops momentum of his dodge, she attempts to stab him once more. Totally serious at this point.

Fangwulf: ((DLP))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Melee: 1,2,4,3,3,7,8,

Winnifred Miles: *second action: punching the down MIB in the face.*

Fangwulf: ((Can't dodge this time, roll yer damage.))

Winnifred Miles: d10: dex+brawl: 4,8,9,

Cori Braun: ((if she's close enough. if not, she'll keep shuffling closer stubbornly.)) *starts spraying her lovely all-natural mace in the direction of the nearest enemy-type person*

Cori Braun: *with, of course, her own eyes shut....))

Cori Braun: d10: dex: 2,4,

Ravyn: SECOND ACTION RECAP: Novalee jabs the Cop in the gut ((Str+1 Lethal Damage)) and Winnie decks the MIB (Strength +1 Bashing Damage; MIB, soak.))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Damage: 2,5,6,4,

Winnifred Miles: d10: strength +: 10,3,7,5,

Fangwulf: d10: MiB soak: 4,7,2,

Ravyn: ((Cop takes one Lethal; MIB takes 1 Bashing. NOW...Round 2; Init Order is Cop, Cori, Two MIB's (One immoblized), Arlett, Adriana, Winnie, Novalee, Spirits, Jon, Snyde.))

Fangwulf: *Said cop tries to punch the stabby freak.*

Fangwulf: d10: dex+brawl: 8,2,9,4,1,

Fangwulf: *And MiB is trying to shove the girl off of him.*

Fangwulf: d10: Str+Brawl: 7,6,7,1,

Arlett: *she does sayins signaling quickling and faintly Jon to Snyde* we gotta get him outta here.. I think he -just- Awakened *said just for HIM to hear and aims to second cop, cause if she shoots the Mib she can hit the girl* ((again .. forces to zap him out cold, will to magic))

Arlett: d10: firing : 9,3,7,8,

Arlett: d10: forces: 8,1,6,

Arlett: ((mhe... not so good but doable *pout*))

Cori Braun: *so now she tries to spray the cop*

Cori Braun: d10: : 2,1,

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's eyes narrow on the shovey MIB. She pulls out her infernal glock of doom and takes fire on the man. (if it needs to be a called shot to miss Cori, I'll take the penalty. Otherwise, its diff 4 to shoot)

Adriana Carmichael: d10: dex+firearms: 3,7,4,9,9,10,5,

Winnifred Miles: *Punching the MIB she's been punching.*

Winnifred Miles: d10: sex + brawl: 8,3,8,

Novalee Van Zandt: Right, keep attacking until one is down, before moving to another. It seems though that the other 3 are down, for now, which is good. Stabbing this cop once again.

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Melee: 1,5,10,3,2,9,2,

Adriana Carmichael: (gah, not cori. winnie. i'd forgotten who tacklepounced him.)

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Specality: 8,

LRM: ((rough sex. grrr))

Ravyn -> Fangwulf: The MIB who's still moving is being Calcified again.

Ravyn: d10: Gnosis Spirit One: 9,9,1,4,7,7,

Jonathon Montgomery: He grunts and stands, glancing behind himself, brow arching. "The fuck?"

Snyde: d10: Arete: 3,9,4,

Snyde -> Ravyn: ((4 success 1 for the scene 3 to drop the diff by three))

Ravyn: RECAP FIRST ACTION: SNYDE releases his effect ((with 3 successes)) as JON grunts and looks around from the other side of the car...he sees all the action, including WINNIE and the MIB on the ground on his side. The MIB stops moving completely, making it easy for WINNIE to punch him again (Strength+1 Bashing Damage and Soak for MIB) and ADRIANA to shoot him ((Gun+4 Lethal Damage)). NOVALEE stabs her COP and gets a fist to the gut ((Strengh + 2 Lethal and Soak, Nov; Strength Damage Cop)); the COP also gets the electricty buller ((Soak 5 there, too)). CORI jams the mace cannister, making it unusable.

Ravyn: ((Sorry, 4 successes for Snyde.))

Adriana Carmichael: d10: glock damage: 6,5,5,8,9,4,8,5,9,6,

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Damage: 5,8,4,7,7,

Fangwulf: d10: MiB soak: 8,7,7,

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Soak: 7,6,4,9,

Fangwulf: d10: Cop Dam: 2,7,4,

Fangwulf: d10: Cop soak: 7,9,4,

Winnifred Miles: *and her second action is going to be spent grabbing anything on the MIB that might be used for badness; ie guns, weapons, strange blinky things...*

Ravyn: ((Winnie, I'm still waiting for your STrength+1 Damage roll.))

Winnifred Miles: (oooh right. *S*)

Winnifred Miles: d10: damage: 8,8,7,10,

Ravyn: Between Winnie's punch and Adriana's gun, the MIB is on death's door and will bleed out next round. Novalee stabs her Cop good, and he goes down. ((Second actions; all badguys incapaciated in damage, except for the one MIB who is standing and frozen in place for unknown reasons.))

Novalee Van Zandt: Novalee moves to the still standing MiB and atabs him. They need to finish off everyone. leave no one alive.

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Melee: 9,4,5,3,9,5,6,

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Damage: 3,4,6,10,9,10,

Winnifred Miles: *wince. Oh that was cold, necessary but cold.*

Arlett: ((that was with extra actions?))

Ravyn: SECOND ACTION RECAPS: NOVALEE stabs the held individual ((4 Lethal Damage)), and WINNIE divests the other MIB of his gun.

Arlett: ((there are no more bad guys, right?))

Ravyn: ((Last round of actions: Order is Cori, Adriana, Winnie, Novalee, Jon, Snyde.))

Arlett: ((Active ones))

Ravyn: ((There's still the held MIB agent who Novalee is trying to kill.))

Arlett: ((*pokes Ravyn for forgetting her*))

Ravyn: ((Cori, ARLETT, Adriana, Winnie, Novalee, Jon, Snyde.))

Cori Braun: *well, since all the baddies are down... she looks around* let's go. now. *and begins shuffling off, planning on taking the long way back to her van* i've got my own wheels elsewhere. we'll all fit in it if you guys are coming with me.

Arlett: ((thanks))

Arlett: *she tursn to Novalee* WHAT IN HELL ARE YOU DOING! *and move to stop her from killing anyone else.. they are OUT no need of killing* we need to get out, not carnage them!

Winnifred Miles: *She sinks onto the ground besides dead MIB, eyes fuzzing out a second. Not about to leave without paying up.*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana's eyes narrow at the large stabbey woman "Refrain from any further actions you overgrown wench. In his state we could very easily take him into custody.. for information." She looks to snyde."

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: The, MIB's for reference, are calcified into the Gauntlet. The Pattern Spiders come over to bite her and take their promised Quintessence.

Novalee Van Zandt: Her done? Nope not until she makes sure that all of them are dead. Once never leaves an enemy left alive to come back and kill you. Very bad form.

Jonathon Montgomery: Whoa...Death. Jon blinks and then glances down at the still unconscious Ethan, one hand digging into his front pocket to come up with the crushed cell phone. So much for calling Mikah...Or Cass...

Snyde: *Snyde gets up and rushes towards Novalee prepared to tackle her to the ground* "You must be dense he is a soruce of information that we need"

Winnifred Miles: *winces once, and then again, rubbing her leg, whispering words of thanks to the spirits. She hears Adriana speak and looks up towards her.* I don't think you'll get anything out of him anyway.

Novalee Van Zandt: Her eyes narrow on them all. She makes sure both of the cops are dead.

Arlett: WE are not going to kill anyone else! *she'll aim the gun to Novalee* and you come close them and I'l shoot you out cold! you will NOT kill them!

Arlett: *Arlett WILL move to be between the cops and Nova*

Adriana Carmichael: She flashes a condescending look to Winnie and Novalee, before looking back to snyde. "We need to strip him of all devices. I can scan him in transit. We'll take him to Ness for interrogation."

Ravyn: The cops are going to be dead. They aren't there yet, but they're going to bleed out, and before help can get to them, too.

Cori Braun: *keeps right on going. eventually the others will recall that MiBs often will send out backup. hopefully before said backup comes*

Arlett: ((one of the cops isn't bleeding, one of the cops is just tazered off.. right? took him off first round))

Ravyn: ((Sorry...one of them will bleed out. The other is just going to slowly die as his brain stops functioning from the massive electrical bashing damage he took.))

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: (the calcified MIB is pretty much dead right?)

Arlett: ((*Blinks* but but but...*pouts* fine.. first stop Nova then first aids ))

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: ((The one Adriana & Winnie dealt with? Yeah, dead already by the end of this round.))

Adriana Carmichael: "Now." She states firmly to snyde, motioning to the frozen MIB agent. She digs in her purse for a serum that will ensure he sleeps the whole trip, preps her tranq gun.

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: (the other one, I think, the one NOVALEE stabbitied Is he...liveable? I can't quite remember what happens when you're calcified)

Jonathon Montgomery: Shaking his head he crouches down beside Ethan and gently strokes his face. "Hey, wake up...C'mon...We need to get out of here, man..."

Snyde: ((is Novalee stabbing the MIB again yes or no))

Novalee Van Zandt: ((Paused for ST))

Arlett: ((Arlett is NOT letting Nova near the cops... so its known))

Ravyn: ((Everyone Pause, we are not out of combat yet, so please stop making multiple posts.))

Ravyn: RECAP FIRST ACTION: Snyde prepares to tackle Novalee, but doesn't as she doesn't kill the MIB. Jon is dazed. Adriana warns Novalee off of killing the MIB, Winnie shows her support. Novalee does not kill the MIB, she starts moving toward the cops, and Arlett gets in the way between Novalee and the cops. Cori starts to move toward her van.

Cori Braun: ((after offering everyone a ride. *wry grin*))

Ravyn: ((All other actions that were not your FIRST POSTS have been ignored, they did not happen. In the future, people, when we are in combat, limit yourself to one post per round, unless you have a multiple action. Thank you.))

Jonathon Montgomery: ((sorry! *sheepish grin*))

Ravyn: ((Second actions: Winnie and Nov))

Novalee Van Zandt: "They are union like the Suits you wish them to live to kill you another day?Or do you wish me to do their work for them?" she stabs the cop.

Ravyn: ((Novalle, Arlett is in the way still. You have to get around her.))

Novalee Van Zandt: ((Sorry I did not know I had to get around Arlett)) Will roll dex athletics to get around Arlett.))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Athletic: 10,4,9,8,8,

Winnifred Miles: That man isn't going to be talking to anyone anytime soon, if ever. *She says, limping towards Novalee.*

Arlett: ((so her second action would be get pass me?))

Ravyn: ((Yes, Arlett.)) SECOND ACTION RECAP: Novalee gets around Arlett, moving with her magically-enhanced speed. Winnie limps her way in Novalee's direction.

Winnifred Miles: (that's her action)

Ravyn: ((Give me a heads up right now. Besides Arlett, who is going to stop Novalee from killing the cops? Not the MIB agent, but the cop?))

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: ((And sorry for delay...yes, the MIB who's Calcified will live.))

Cori Braun: ((Cori will say something about the two who passed out next post.))

Adriana Carmichael: (not me. adri's only concerned with the MIB agent. the cops are dead to her)

Snyde: ((So will Snyde more then likely))

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Jon's still a little stunned so he's not doing much))

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: (alive, but can he be brought back to consciousness?)

Ravyn: ((Snyde, you'll also try to stop, or you'll try to say something about the two who got knocked unconscious?))

Snyde: ((he will say somthing, but not move in that dorection yet))

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: ((Yes, he's even conscious right now. Just trapped.))

Ravyn: ((So combat actions consist of Arlett and Novalee, in that declaration order.))

Ravyn: ((And Novalee is going first, Arlett is just declaring first.))

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: (heh, just reread what pattern spiders do. *lol*)

Arlett: ((*sighs* cowards! =P *just has a bad feeling thus has to say it before Arlett gets hurty)) *She frowns* We are NOT COLD BLOODED MURDERED!, if you do.. then you are not better then them! *and as she knows she is NOT stoppin.. she shoots her with the electric gun... trying to get Nova unconious before she kills more people* ((sorry))((will on magic, cause if Nova doens't goes out cold Arlet tis gonna regret it))

Arlett: d10: firing: 3,3,9,8,

Arlett: d10: arete : 10,9,4,

Winnifred Miles: *blink, peering at the immobile MIB.* I think I'm wrong. *she murmers. He'd only LOOKED dead, on second glance, very much alive, if unmoving.*

Arlett -> Ravyn: ((*hides behind, cause she doens't like fighitng with other PCs*))

Novalee Van Zandt: "Sister get the suit, we will take him home to our interrogator, I only hope she can get some information out of him." And she stabs at the downed cop.

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Dex+Melee: 3,3,3,9,4,9,8,

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Damage: 8,1,4,3,5,9,

Ravyn: NEW ROUND: Novalee stabs the non-bleeding cop (1 Lethal), and then promptly gets shot with a Taser Bullet ((Soak 5 Bash))

Snyde: *Snyde stands there watching this cold blooded Murderess move and speaks very loudly* "Cease or be put down like a rabid dog"

Ravyn: ((GAAH. Sorry, Soak SEVEN Bash))

Novalee Van Zandt: d10: Soak: 5,1,6,2,

Arlett: ((I can withdrawn the willpower I Do NOT want to kill Nova))

Ravyn: And Novalee goes down instantly ((Seven Bash))

Snyde: ((DLP))

Ravyn: ((You cannot withdraw a Willpower point or any successes you get on a roll, Arlett. That's the chance you take.))

Winnifred Miles: *Gaping, then runs towards Nova when Arlette shoots her.* What the heck are you all doing?!

Arlett: ((Waits to see when she can act again not sure anyone else is gonna go combaty *eyes Winni as Nova IS her friend*))

Ravyn: ((Combat over at this point, I think.))

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana points her glock at Winnie. "I suggest you gather your ~sister~ and leave."

Snyde: *After watching Novalee go down Snyde moves to the MIB and begins stripping him before moveing to pick him up and carry him in the direction that Cori left in*

Ravyn: Snyde finds the MIB unable to be moved.

Arlett: ((yea.. sorry) )*eyes Winni* I dind't kill her... so I recomend you take the murdered out of sight and to your doctor of preference *starting to move to the cops, keeping her gun ready in case Winni tries to kill someone too or jump at her*

Adriana Carmichael: (stripping him like.. nude? or of weapons and gadgets? cause that could be a deal breaker)

Cori Braun: *as she shuffles painfully past Ethan and Jon, shespeaks. but does not stop walking* come on--i know a place where Ethan'll be safe, dude. pick him up and carry him, if you can, all right?

Snyde: ((Stripping him of all weapons and gadgets and possiblly down to his boxers if nesscary))

Winnifred Miles: We're all on the same side, remember? *She says, glaring at Adriana as she kneels by Nova's side, chekcing to see if she is alive.*

Novalee Van Zandt: And she goes unconsious having been attacked by the people she was trying to save from them. She now knows the Trads in this city wished their own death. Sai's clank to the ground, as her over 6 foot tall 210 pound fram hits the snowy ground with a thud.

Cori Braun: *and forces her voice a bit louder* couple of those cops tried to help us. leave 'em be, best thing we can do for them. come on if you're coming, cuz i ain't waiting.

Jonathon Montgomery: He blinks at Cori and then nods, crouching to pick Ethan up carefully.

Jonathon Montgomery: d10: dex ath - carry eth: 8,2,8,3,6,

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana narrows her eyes on Winnie after seeing Snyde unable to move the body. "What was done to his person? Undo it. Now." she calls out to Cori. "We are. We need to tote him along if possible."

Arlett: Yes. but we are not cold blood murdered.. you want to be like them? *kneeling she'll aply first aid to the cops, so they live till help arrives* if we start kiling them in cold blood we are not better... we are worst... I did not kill her... she'll be fine

Jonathon Montgomery: He settles the man against his chest in a slightly awkward bridal carry and follows Cori.

Winnifred Miles: *Her eyes widen.* I didn't do anything. *there's the pulse, good. She taps her on the side of hte face.* Hey, can you hear me? Come one..you're too tall for me to carry adn too heavy for me to pull.

Adriana Carmichael: She glares at Winnie and looks to Snyde, to see if he has a plan. She gives a frantic look to Cori and considers simply bolting. There'd be other agents.

Cori Braun: *sways to a painful halt for just a moment* if we can't move him, he needs gacked. grab the girl on the ground--she's one of ours. Arlett, i need to talk to you a moment. *and then shuffles doggedly onward, thin face paler than normal, even for her, and twisted with ouch. to Jon* can you drive? if so, i choose you, Pikachu.

Arlett: d10: first aids on cop: 3,3,9,6,2,

Snyde: *Snyde shakes his head as he begins moveing away from the scene hands clenched as he thinks about the valuable information lost today*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Yeah. I can." He nods slowly to Cori. "What the hell happened? What was that all about? The fuck is goin on?"

Arlett: *towards Cori* comming! *eyes Winni* I did warn her.. she chose murder instead of reason... *well she'll just try stbilyse cops so they can wait for help*

Winnifred Miles: *She fuzzes out a moment, tyring to figure out how to get the guy movable again.*

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, looking down at Nov and Winnie, then back up to Cori. "You suggest we tote ~them~ along? They've been working against us this entire time. I'll certainly not be the one to drag her insolent ass along." She gives a huff and follows the others.

Cori Braun: *soft grunt* make a deal with you, handsome. we leve the area, get somewhere safe, and then i'll tell you. cuz right now...it's a bit hard for me to talk and walk, and i know good and well that stopping for a chat is a real bad idea. fair deal?

Arlett: Thougth Cori is right Adriana, we cna't leave them here

Snyde: *Snyde leaves the scene leaving the others to dirty there hands if they wish the man dead* ((Well I have to go need to get ready for work))

Jonathon Montgomery: "Yeah. A'ight...That's fine," he says with a sigh, shifting Ethan with a grunt. "Hope your van is close cause cutie-pie here is heavy."

Novalee Van Zandt: Nothing from Novalee, no flutter of eyelashes nothing. She is out cold.

Ravyn: Arlett is able to stabilize the one cop who was first stunned by Arlett and then barely stabbed. The other one, the one Novalee badley stabbed and Arlett tazed, was near-death as it was, and is past her ability to do so.

Cori Braun: *growls faintly* Adriana. let me put it another way. *she's tired. she hurts. and this has NOT been a good day for her* i can't move her myself, or i'd be trying to. if she doesn't come along, you don't, either. you can walk much better than she can, and it's my fucking van. Arlett, help with laid-out chick, please.

Arlett: ((eyes Ravyn for if she can)) *and tries same with other cop*

Arlett: ((DLP)) *frowing as the other is arleady dead, scowls.. but one will get the help, she moves, loking to Winni* I'll help you bring her along *signaling Nova* hurry

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana frowns, listening to Arlett and Cori and gives a hurt look when Snyde simple wanders off. Damnit. She makes a graceful stride back over to the MIB agent and points the glock to his temple. She looks back to Winnie. "You've no idea how to mobilize the agent?"

Snyde: ((well thanks for the scene but I gotta run))

Winnifred Miles: hold on. *she mutters to the others, fuzzy eyed intense stare at Mr. Immobility.*

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: The Pattern Spiders chitter close, curiously.

Arlett: *Eyes them, then Nova.... frowns.... and looks around, then well.... she goes on working on move Nova slighlty, then she'll seek in her bag for one of the hair spray with the ether mix on it.. and pour it on the snow so it makes moving Nova easier* ((what.. trying a little effect with matter and forces so she can -drag- Nova along with her marvelous str of 1))

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, watching Winnie. "You've ten seconds. By now backup is on the way. We need to vacate the premises. And if he can't be moved with us, he needs to be exterminated. I can sedate him in a controlled fashion, but I have no idea how to fix him in the state he's in."

Arlett: d10: intel tech: 9,6,10,8,4,4,7,

Arlett: d10: arete : 1,7,8,

Winnifred Miles: d10: Arete: 6,8,

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: We need to decalcify him...he might have information we need. *She murmers to the spirits.*

Cori Braun: s'not too far, dude. what's your name, anyway? *puffing faintly, plodding stubbronly along* i'm Cori.

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon tries to catch up with Cori without joggling Ethan too much. Poor, fragile guy's had about all he can take from the looks of him as he lays in Jon's arms.

Winnifred Miles: Trying...*she mutters to Adriana.*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana switches hands with the glock and pulls back out her tranq dart. Ready to sedate the man properly.. so he can finally be transported.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Jon...Jonathon Montgomery," he says with a sigh. "One confused sob."

Ravyn -> Winnifred Miles: They seem reluctant...but they have their payment. They walk over to the MIB, ripping the Patters holding him apart.

Ravyn: The MIB falls to the ground suddenly, groaning in pain from his stab wound.

Cori Braun: nice to meet ya, although wish the circumstances were happier. *wincign as she has to lift her leg higher to step over something. stopping once boht feet are on the ground to look back at teh others*

Jonathon Montgomery: "I just wish I had a clue what was going on," he says with a sigh. "My partner is going to flip if I don't make it home soon..."

Arlett: *and works on dragging the huge woman along, mumbling lightly.... *

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana quirks a tiny smile to Winnie. "Well done, dear." She shots the man with a dart. (life spell to knock him out floppily, as to be moved)

Winnifred Miles -> Ravyn: Thank you. *She murmers again, knowing how much this goes against their nature.

Adriana Carmichael: d10: dex+firearms: 4,4,3,10,6,9,3,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete + wp: 6,9,1,

Ravyn: The man goes out.

Adriana Carmichael: She nods and bends down. "Help me move him. Hopefully we can manage between the two of us." She motions for winnie to help

Winnifred Miles: *She gets to her feet, more worried about Novalee than about the MIB Adriana has in her possession. She grabs the other end, hefting her up. Still wary of the others, but with Nova down she has no choice but to accept their help.*

Adriana Carmichael: (and snyde alraedy took all his weapons and gadgets, right? or was he unable to do that as well?)

Winnifred Miles: oop...I think she'd hate to have these left behind. *pauses to pick up Nova's Sai's.*

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns and tugs the man as best she can, trying to urge Winnie to hurry.

Ravyn: ((Snyde already got his weapons, gadgets and, bizarrely, all of his clothes except his boxers. Too bad he wasn't wearing boxers, he was wearing tidy whiteys.))

Arlett: ((Cooooold))

Adriana Carmichael: (oh jesus. that's what you get for telling a cowboy to strip someone. *G*)

Ravyn: ((And you guys can continue the denouement of the scene here...OOC room will hold the debriefing for all interested.))

Cori Braun: *and they reach the van. she opens it up for Jon* not too much longer......here, let's get him in, and you take the keys. the others are coming, and then we can head off into the sunset or something. i need to make a phone call....

Ravyn: ((Except they're tidy blackeys, I guess. 'cause he's a Man in Black.))

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and crawls into the van with Ethan, settling him carefully before taking the keys and sliding into the driver's seat.

Arlett: *she'll help get Nova inside the van*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana will tote the man (hopefully with winnie's help) to corrie's van and make sure everyone is in, including novalee. She'll make offers to heal in transit after scanning the agent for implants.

Cori Braun: *taking a moment to look Jon over VERY carefully after reaching into a box for a short carved stick thing that she plays with idly* ((*G* scanning Jon for increased Quint levels, just in case....))

Cori Braun: d10: : 6,1,2,

Jonathon Montgomery: He glances at Cori, brow arching slightly. "You okay? You were limping pretty bad..."

Winnifred Miles: *Gonna stay near Nova, hoping the tall viking chick wakes up sometime soon.*

Arlett: *she does tell to Cori before going quiet* I think your friend needs ta talk to Soccer Momma Co

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana does her best to focus on the matter at hand.. and not the fact that she was sitting in what looked to be a dogpen. She adjusts the settings and dials and points the thing at the agent. (doing a full life/matter scan to see if there's anything out of the ordinary. implants and whatnot. extended cast)

Cori Braun: *eyes Adri with a faint chuckle* what? at least my boys aren't here to lick you to death....ok, Jon. we need to go...*gives him directions to Staten Island*

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and starts the van, pulling out slowly, trying to drive real casual like...

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 9,3,8,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 6,6,4,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 9,3,8,

Cori Braun: i'll be all right, hon. *smiles a bit to Jon. manages a faint lip-quirk at Arl before she just slowly lays down. she'll lay beside Ethan in an effort to keep either of them from jouncing around too hard*

Jonathon Montgomery: He snorts slightly at Cori's assessment. "I just reenacted a scene from Constantine and you're telling me its gonna be okay? Last time I checked I didn't pick up any spears that were used to kill the Son of God."

Ravyn: Adirana finds nothign out of ordinary on the MiB.

Arlett: *and the girl reminds from there quiet, cold and hurt... and so very much wanting to just head .... sighs... home*

Cori Braun: gotta have faith that it'll work out, sweetie. *eyeballing the roof of her van* i so need to, like, figure out how Weiss gets drool up that far....

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana gives a tiny sigh of releif and puts her scanner away, sitting uncomfortably in the back, touching as little as possible. "The agent is clean and hopefully out of earshot. I'm not adept at warding or anything of the like, thoguh I can assure you he's not transmitting any messages." She looks down to the poor nearly nude man and takes off her coat, laying it on top of him.

Cori Braun: Adriana, can you, maybe, check us all out. and groans as she sits up so she can lean toward the woman to murmur to her*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Yeah...Not to mention. I missed dinner. My husband is going to kill me." He shakes his head, driving.

Novalee Van Zandt: ((hehe if Novalee were awake she would have said, she doubted he could have gotten ahold of such an item *G*)) But big woman is nothing if not a dead weight, breathing yes, waking up anytime soon, probably not. Her scars, which if anyone looked were paterned designs cut into her own flesh.((Intel Occulet if you wish to look closer and tell what they are))

Arlett: I can ward...*softly, sighing and pulling out her gameboy.. starting to work on electrical wardings agist being scried or sensed *(well agsit corro and prime))((will make ritual so it last around them til lthey reach point... how many rolls should I do?))

Winnifred Miles: I have some chocolate. *She offers. Pulling back Nova's eyelid to peer at her eyes. She's seen it done in movies.*

Cori Braun: Jon, if you'll tell me your number, i'll dial for you and relay to your hubby. dun mind. too sore to try and unlock the cage door, though. you got that key, anyway.

Cori Braun: *faint chuckle* i got more food in the box right near the back of here. the one with the red top.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana nods and looks around to the other passengers. "Bring me your sick and injured." She says with a less than amused tone, digging through her purse. "Though I'll warn you, I'm running low on supplies. I'd suggest we go back to my lab.. but.." She looks around and shakes her head. "No. No I wouldn't. That's a foolish idea." She loads her tranq gun back up with another tiny vial of healy goodness.

Jonathon Montgomery: "I'll call him when we get where we're going. Not sure what to tell him right now anyways and I think I'm shaking too bad to hold the phone."

Cori Braun: eh, save me for last,ok? *a faint smile to the woman, lying down again* i'll live. i won'tbe going to the school dance any time soon, but i'm not going to die from this. although, Arlett, hon? love ya. am NOT ever gonna let you drive the getaway car again if there's a park anywhere nearby.

Ravyn: ((It's a half-hour to Michelle's place, so rolling three times would be good.))

Cori Braun: ok, Jon, if yer sure. *wheezes a bit as she wiggles in slow motion, trying to get more comfy*

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana nods and scoots to hover over Novalee. She flashes Winnie a stern glance. "Will she be calmer if I help her?"

Jonathon Montgomery: "Can someone explain to me just HOW I was able to reenact that little scene from Constantine and live?"

Arlett: *managing her game boy eyes Adriana* check my bag.. gots things there *then blniks to Cori* first time I crash in two years of drving the getaway and you complain *sticks her tongut out. with a little shiver* shit.. I'm cold

Arlett: d10: arete : 9,3,2,

Arlett: d10: arete will: 5,1,3,

Arlett: ((goo I spend the will *fronws*))

Winnifred Miles: I certainly hope so. *She says, but honestly, she can't say yes or no.*

Adriana Carmichael: She blinks to Jonathon. "I felt magic coming from your direction, dear. It was coming from either you or him." She motions to Ethan. "Is this the first time something like this has happened to you?"

Arlett: d10: arete will, quit: 5,2,9,

Arlett: ((well three suxx *pouts* is something))

Cori Braun: s'one of the things we'll prolly be talking about when we get there, Jon. *chuckles to Arlett, then coughs a bit* ow....laughing hurts. oh, boy--i'm gonna cry when i get home, i know it. cuz my dogs're gonna jump on me like they always do....

Jonathon Montgomery: "Magic?" He snorts. "Fuck I need a beer," he mutters, hand rising to rub at the back of his tattooed neck.

Cori Braun: Arlett, there's an extra sweater in the box you're leaning against. it smells more like dog than the sleeping bags do, but it's toasty. you cna use it if you want....*rolls her head to blink at Winnie* by the way. i'm Cori. who're you? and who's laid-out chick?

Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Jon "Yes. I'd imagine so. We can aquire some.. beer.. after we're all safe, alright dear?" She flashes a serious look to Winnie "If she lashes out at me after I bring her around.. I will shoot her. In the head. If you doubt she'll comply it's best to leave her be. I'm hardly in the mood for ~that~ kind of trouble."

Arlett: *grins to Cori, focusin on her gameboy still* don't tell me... at least I have had worst.. but never been hurt AND cold same time... wait *Ishachus* I have

Arlett: in a minuted *as she can't stop focusing on the gameboy or loose it*

Jonathon Montgomery: "I also need a shower. I'm covered in blood and I think its all mine...Um...What was in that shit you shot me with," he asks, glancing in the rearview at Adriana.

Cori Braun: ok, Arlett. *blinks at the drool-patterns on the van's ceiling. hopefully, Adriana will be too preoccupied to take a really good look up there. or she may go fetal from all the GERMS surrounding her in a dog-scented fog....*

Arlett: humm.... Durst old budy once froze me *mannipulating gameboy* ended up in hospital for a week

Arlett: ((DLP isn't fitting up there *blinks* I misread))

Arlett: *she nods, just focusing on keeping them hiden... with enough luck*

Adriana Carmichael: She looks to Jonathan. "I injected you with a biological reconstruction serum. You felt better afterward, yes?"

Winnifred Miles: *She purses her lips, looking at Adriana, considering how Nova might react.* I think she'll be alright...I'll be close. But I'm sure there's other things you could use besides a bullet to the brain. *not to mention that would be murder, and murder's bad, right?*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Felt better? I walked away from a goddamned car crash that shoulda killed me. And I KNOW both my legs were crushed and my most of my ribs broken..."

Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Winnie. "It's up to you, dear. I'll bring her around if you think she can remain calm. If not it's best she stays how she is for the time being."

Arlett: Adriana.. my gun isn't lethal. it shots altered bullets, you can shot her with it and she'l ljust get tazered *in case* we are not killing anyone else

Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Jonathon. "Yes. They probably were, dear. From the looks if it you were racked with pain before being injected with the serum. I put my full efforts into reconstructing your life pattern. Fixing what was damaged."

Cori Braun: we'll tell you more when we get there, Jon. *smiles gnelty*

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and rubs at his neck again, hand shaking worse.

Winnifred Miles: Bring her up..I can't carry her, she's too heavy. *She decides. She hadn't forgotten Cori B., she just had something more immediate at hand namely Adriana perhaps shooting Nova.* I'm Winnie, this is Nova. *the twisted grin reasserting itself finally.*

Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Arlett with the same stern look "And I don't wish to kill anyone. But I'll be damned if I'm going to sit back and take a beating from a headstrong Amazon woman with a raging temper."

Jonathon Montgomery: "Keep her under. Wake up Ethan. Worse case scenerio I'll carry the chick inside wherever we're going."

Adriana Carmichael: She nods to Winnie. "If you're sure. I'm here to help. We're on the same side.. I'm assuming." She gives a tiny squint and moves the tranq tun toward Nova's side.

Arlett: *managing gadget, she just reirates to ADriana* NO one dies

Cori Braun: nice to met you, Winnie. i'll greet Nova when she's awake. *considers that SHE could seriously use a beer right now--and she doesn't drink alcohol....*

Winnifred Miles: She doesn't actually have a raging temper. She was doing what she thought was necessary. As I understand it, you were ready to gack the guy yourself. *She points out.*

Adriana Carmichael: She looks over to Ethan. Oh yeah. Unconscious people are always so quiet. Right. She decides to go for Ethan first.. the boy hardly looked a threat. She injects him in the side (life effect, heal, extended)

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 7,3,6,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 7,2,9,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 7,10,3,

Arlett: We are not murderes *to Winni*

Adriana Carmichael: (6 sux to heal ethan)

Adriana Carmichael: After concentrating on Ethan, she narrows her eyes on Winnie. "I was willing to do what was necessary based on the logical outcome of the situation. If he could not be relocated.. it is best that he is taken out. Otherwise.. he would come after us again. We need to carve out their numbers when possible.. which is why we HAVE him.. to get all the information we can." She looks to arlett. "I'm not a killer. But I'm willing to admit.. when it needs to be done. What do you think they want to do with us, arlett? Shake hands.. maybe a rousing game of spades?"

Winnifred Miles: We're all murderers tonight. *She says. She looks at Adri.* I don't think anyone here is on the other side.

Jonathon Montgomery: And Jon attempts to tune out the conversation in the back of the van. Its just too much info for his poor, confused head.

Cori Braun: thing is, Arlett--we are at war. in war, people die. and leaving someone behind who might could wake up and gack us from the back is not a good way to have a long and healthy life.

Arlett: *eyes Arlett* they kill, you kill.. you are no better then them... I won't even kill someone... no if I can help it.. the moment I think otherwise,.. they won, they make me like them

Winnifred Miles: And Nova was doing the same. *Shrugs.* If you get her up, you can let us out that much earlier.

Adriana Carmichael: She narrows her eyes at Arlett "Snyde has killed agents.. defending YOU. I've been shot.. and removed numerous bullets from those who have. Defending YOU. And you still have the NERVE to call us murderers?"

Jonathon Montgomery: The poor man is gonna rub his sun bronzed neck raw.

Arlett: *Eyes Adriana a moment* back then you didn't kil in cold blood Adriana, like that woman was doing *signals Nova* I am saying I'll never do that

Cori Braun: guys. can we please not get into a fight while Jon's trying to remember the directions i mumbled at him? *calmly*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Seriously. Don't make me pull the Van over...I will you know...I"ll just pull over and smack you all stupid."

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, looking to Jonathan "I appologize, dear. This all must be terribly confusing to you. I remember when I first woke up. Quite the shock."

Jonathon Montgomery: "I've been awake since noon...Seriously..."

Cori Braun: please don't smack me if you do that, Jon. i'm innocent! *another very faint chuckle*

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny smile. "And I smack back." She peers to the man, driving. "Have you seen anything.. strange dear? Other things like todays events that you can't really explain?"

Arlett: ând goes on quietly keeping them off radar*

Novalee Van Zandt: ((Guys I literally cannot see anymore, as what is left of my field of vision is watermarked to almost a pinpoint. imagine seeing out of a empty pen case under water, that is how I am seeing right now. I need sleep. **Hugs* night.)) ((Go ahead and leave Novalee unconsious.....sorry))

Jonathon Montgomery: "No." He shakes his head, eyes focused on the road. "I moved up here from Kenosha...That's in Wisconsin, a year or so ago...Got a good job, met a great guy..." He snorts. "Trying to get custody of my daughter. My life is normal. Good but fucking normal."

Arlett: ((nigth Snow *hugs and sorry!*))

Winnifred Miles: (night Novalee, Winnie will see you home somehow. *lol*)_

Cori Braun: so, no odd stuff happened at all?

Winnifred Miles: it's not normal anymore. *She mutters. Looking over at Cori.* So...where are we going anyway? Cause I have to get tall blond and viking home somehow.

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a sterile nod. "Yes, well I hate to be the bearer of strange news, but I think it's taken a turn for the abnormal, dear."

Jonathon Montgomery: "Nope. Nothing." He shakes his head with a sigh.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Fuck a duck," he mutters in response to Adriana's words, tongue moving over his teeth.

Cori Braun: we're going to a place a friend recommended. ya know Michelle, Winnie? *rolls her head slowly to look at the woman* and i'll help you get her home later, doan worry.

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny smile. "Not that abnormal, though I've heard of stranger." She digs out her scanner. "If you don't mind, dear I'm going to do a scan of your person.. Just in case my hypothesis is incorrect. Do I have your permission?"

Cori Braun: ewwwww. beastiality. *cough-chuckles softly* and that was a joke. but, yeah. i suspect Adrianan's right about the weird factor. welcome to wonderland, alice.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Scan away I guess. I suddenly feel like I'm trapped in a game of Witchcraft..."

Cori Braun: *snickers* i suspect i'm the only Wiccan back here. could be wrong, buuuuut....

Winnifred Miles: Michelle....who? I know a couple. Are you ok? *eyeing Cori.* You look like who-did-it-and-ran.

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns. "I prefer the term ~science~ dear.. but you can use whatever terminology you prefer. I'm hardly one to judge." she pauses "For the most part." She adjusts the scanner and point sit at Jon.

Jonathon Montgomery: "Great...Only damn gamer-geek in the car," he mutters.

Adriana Carmichael: "I've no time for folly." (doing an extended matter/life scan to make sure he isn't one of those crazy corpses walking around.. or containing any weird lion DNA like the last weirdo she drug to her lab)

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 9,4,4,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 1,3,6,

Cori Braun: heh....MIchelle the singer.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana looks to the screen, trying to analyze the readout. (what would one sux yield me?)

Jonathon Montgomery: "So, uh...Am I all healthy an shit doc? Despite my run in with the amazing folding car?"

Winnifred Miles: Oh...don't think I know Michelle the singer. *she admits. I met her the other night. *meaning Arlett, again that irrepresible grin surfaces.*

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny nod, saving her data. "Living breathing specimin of the human race. That means.. unless you're repressing some very deep seated memories.. you're one of us unless I've left out another possible option."

Ravyn: ((One success would reveal nothing, as you need one success just to affect another subject. However, a scan is a Rank One Sphere effect and it's coincidential, so that's three successes. *S*))

Arlett: yea... ya were talking to a guy sitting on a table *doing her gameboy thing*

Cori Braun: well, she's an awesome chick.

Jonathon Montgomery: "One of you? What exactly does that mean? Last I checked I was a living, breathing homo-somethingus."

Adriana Carmichael: (lol. there we go. too many rolls for the scarlet today. my brain is fried)

Winnifred Miles: *beams.* Yup. A real cream puff.

Arlett: *grins at Winni* figured.. by the looks

Cori Braun: *chuckles softly*

Adriana Carmichael: "Based on the fact that you came out of the accident unharmed.. coupled with the fact that I felt magic coming from your vicinity.. life magic to be precise.. I've concluded that you're a newly awakened member of the Magi. Congratulations. You're quite lucky we found you when we did. And not.. them." She motions to the agent.

Cori Braun: like i said, Jon--welcome to wonderland. *another soft chuckle*

Jonathon Montgomery: "So uh...I'm guessing that he's a MIB, right? Like conspiracy theory Man in Black?"

Winnifred Miles: By the looks? *blinkblinkblink.*

Adriana Carmichael: She nods with a tiny smile to the man. An.. actual smile. It looks odd.. and unfitting on the sterile woman. "Precicely. Was it the mirror shades that gave it away?"

Jonathon Montgomery: "I dunno. Shades, suit, car." He shrugs and then chuckles softly. "I'm gay, but I'm also a big Sci Fi fan."

Cori Braun: that might comein handy to help you adjust, Jon. *rolls over. carefully. wincing*

Arlett: *shakes her head to Winni* just he looked spicy

Jonathon Montgomery: "You really need your leg looked at," he says, glancing at Cori in the mirror. "You shouldn't be in that much pain still."

Winnifred Miles: *Sniggers.* I don't know anything about that.

Cori Braun: heh, s'not just my leg. i can handle it until we get to where we're going. *smiles warmly at the man. never mind she still looks rather wan*

Arlett: and will ya find out? *peering to Winni*

Jonathon Montgomery: "Ah huh. Sure ya are."

Ravyn: d10: Paradox - Jonathon: 5,8,1,4,

Cori Braun: *chuckles faintly* i am, really. now, tomorrow, i'm prolly going to just stay in bed and cry at the thought of moving. until my big lug shoves me out of bed to get his breakfast. then, i'll cry on the floor and whine until one of my housemates takes pity on the boys and feeds 'em.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana frowns and moves up toward cori. "Nonsense, dear this isn't the time to be stubborn" (is she in the same section.. isn't theer a gatey thing?)

Jonathon Montgomery: "Look, if the doc can fix it for you, let her."

Ravyn -> Jonathon Montgomery: Jonathon suddenly feels himself weaken CONSIDERABLY. Superman just went bye-bye, or you just found some Kryptonite. For the rest of the day, your Stamina is 1, and all Bashing damage is Lethal (meaning you can't soak it).

Adriana Carmichael: She flashes a steely gaze to Jonathan. "I have a name, dear. It's Adriana."

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon frowns and eases the van to the side of the road with a low groan. "Holy shit..."

Winnifred Miles: Probably...*she says with a nod and a grin.* He's just a whole heap of trouble waiting to happen.

Arlett: *nods to Winni* sure he is...*still working on her gameboy*

Cori Braun: ((there is a gate thingy, but it's between the back and the driver/passenger seats. and yes, the links are big enough she could've scanned Jon without an isue,which is why i didn't say hold on or anything before. *L*)) well, i won't say no, Adriana. *wry grin* jsut wanted to make sure everyone else was all right, first.

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns watching Jon intently "Are you alright, dear? Cori.. Check on him, dear.."

Jonathon Montgomery: He puts the van in park and closes his eyes a minute, resting his head back against the seat. "Just really...weak feeling all of a sudden..."

Winnifred Miles: *a glance towards Jonathen as the van comes to a halt.*

Arlett: *looking ahead as they halt*

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny nod. "Sounds like reality catching up to you, dear. It happens."

Cori Braun: you all right? *frowns and eases herself upright. crawling to the gate* Jon, can you pass me the keys? i'd like to take a closer look at you, but you have the key to the gate up there.

Winnifred Miles: *and a look back at Arlett with a grin.* why you asking anyway?

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and turns off the engine, handing her the keys with a shaking hand. "Still shaking. Maybe I'm just cold. My clothes are tore up...Just...Wow...Last time I felt this weak I had the flu."

Arlett: *shrugs* you brrought it up.. chit chatting...*makes her not think how it hurts.. or how cold it feels* man.. I just want to sleep *looking a bit up* how are you all?

Cori Braun: *eases the keys through the gate and unlocks it. grunting as she rises, opening the thing, and ducking to sit beside Jon, in the passenger seat.* i'm gonna see what i can tell about you now, sweetie. this shouldn't hurt or anything...*and begins to mumble, looking him over as she does. turning his face gently towards herself*

Cori Braun: d10: looking only, life: 8,10,3,

Jonathon Montgomery: He turns his head willingly, brown eyes opening to regard her a bit tiredly. "Adrenaline rush is just wearing off. That's all. I'm fine."

Winnifred Miles: (time for me to go night night. Winnie'll watchover Nova until they're let off)

Cori Braun: ((*nods and hugs* sweet dreams.))

Arlett: (8nighto winni-p =) ))

Winnifred Miles: (night all, sleep sweet.)

Adriana Carmichael: (*waves* soooo sorry. lil was throwing a fit. i'm back)

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana eyes Cori and Jon up front "Are we going to Michelle's residence? Some other location? Haven? I'd like to contact Ness so she can download the agent's mind. It will make for a much easier course of action than trying to force information out of him."

Cori Braun: ((hrm.....what would 2 sux let her learn? *scratches head*))

Jonathon Montgomery: "Think someone else could drive for a bit," he asks.

Arlett: We should go to Michelle's place till we know its safe *points Mib* that he is not wired.... I am warding.. but we goota check him for bugs

Arlett: I can drive...((*G*))

Jonathon Montgomery: "NO!"

Cori Braun: mmm, i think Adriana checked him out for that already.....Jon, let's change places. i can drive. just doan really want to. *soft chuckle* but i think i'm suddenly in better condition.

Adriana Carmichael: "I already have. There are no implants on his person. No bugs. Nothing out of the ordinary." She looks to arlett. "No thank you, dear. I appreciate your enthusiasm.. but.. " She looks to Cori "Here.. let me fix your legs. Certainly if you're the owner you can drive."

Cori Braun: that's ok, Arlett....>*chuckles, speaking hastily* we kinda need you to keep doing what you're doign right now....

Arlett: *winces at Jon yelling* I CAN drive *frowning at them,s rhuging and letting them decide who* ((come on..*giggles*))

Arlett: *blinking at Cori, true* right...

Jonathon Montgomery: He nods and rubs the back of his neck before running his hand over his face. ((Y'know, I just realized that some of you may not have seen Jon before...He has tats..And piercings...if you want the list, pm me))

Adriana Carmichael: She digs her tranq gun back out of her purse and slots in another vial, inching toward Cori. "Stay still, dear. You'll feel a pinch." (same drill, healing extended)

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 7,5,6,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 6,7,1,

Adriana Carmichael: d10: arete: 4,7,9,

Adriana Carmichael: (5 sux to heal cori)

Ravyn -> Cori Braun: His life pattern has weakened considerable...it's MUUUCH less sturdy right now.

Cori Braun: *braces herself for the pinch, but doesn'tshy away from the woman* thank you, Adriana.

Cori Braun: mmm, yeah, Jon--you seriously need to chill out. you wanna lie down beside Ethan? *worried, frowning*

Cori Braun -> Ravyn: ((is it actively deteriorating? or holding steady in such a way as to indicate it might just strengthen on its own, given rest and food and all?))

Jonathon Montgomery: "Cass might kill me," he says, chuckling slightly, tiredly as he oozes out of the seat.

Ravyn -> Cori Braun: ((Holding steady. It just...suddenly dropped dramatically.))

Cori Braun: i doubt he will. at least not before hearing the explanation, right? *tries to help the guy to the back of the van so he can lie down, snagging another sleeping bag to cover him up* ok, gang--if we get stopped or anything.....the sleeping folks we picked up froma aprty. Arlett, you're my cousin and i'm taking you home from the library. Adriana and Winnie, we three are buddies who were hanging out shopping until we got a call from Jon, who told us that he, Ethan, and Nova were all too tipsy to drive. so, we came and got them, then picked up Arlett from the library. *grins cheerfully* and Jon, stay under the covers--you're the bloodiest.

Adriana Carmichael: Adriana looks over to Cori once the serum kicks in. "We should take these two home first as they requested." She motions to Nova and Winnie.

Jonathon Montgomery: He glances down at himself, peeking under the covers and nods before curling close to Ethan. "Gotcha." He yawns.

Arlett: *blinking to Cori, nods* ookey...

Cori Braun -> Ravyn: ((*nods* would another successful scene indicate if it's going to recover itself? *tilts head* or would she need soemthing other than life to figure that?))

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, looking around. Edging up in her late thirties. "I'm nearly old enough to be the van mother. Your story is flawed. But.. In the event that we're questioned, I'll refrain from speaking. I do prefer to accent my better qualities." She also helps Jon back to make sure he's alright.

Ravyn -> Cori Braun: ((Need Time, probably, for that.))

Cori Braun: *nods to Adriana* will do. ((and, since the players of Nova and Winnie are offline....shall we simply miraculously find them easy to drop off on the way to Michelle's? *L*))

Jonathon Montgomery: "Mn...by the way Adriana...My name's Jon."

Cori Braun: *chuckles to Adriana* that's not bad, though. you could be an older friend, helping me to buy clothes with some taste, after all. not likely that would be too unbelieveable, considering our modes of attire. say, Adriana, Arlette? either of you good with both life and time?

Adriana Carmichael: (*nods* but first, adriana would want to call ness. she's the only one she knows who can download the agent's mind)

Arlett: ((*I won't complay*)) *ARlett reminds again in gameboy warding and quiet.. shivering from time to time*

Cori Braun: oh, yeah--my phone's on the floor somewhere. welcome to use it while we drive, Adriana. *and carefully begins driving again. she's a nice, safe driver who obeys the traffic laws and stuff. mostly*

Adriana Carmichael: "I have my own." She states and pulls her cell out to call ness.

Cori Braun: *grins to herself about that. she can just imgaine the cringe Adriana would've done if forced to pick up ANYTHING off her floor....*

Adriana Carmichael: She dials the number and waits for a response. She looks to Cori. "Have we even checked to make sure Michelle is at home.. at not at the chantry?"

Arlett: *rises hand to Cori* got them

Cori Braun: *chuckles* i called her when i got in here and asked where to bring everyone.

Adriana Carmichael: "Hello, dear. It's me. I can't say much on the line but we've something you'd be happy to tinker with if you've the time. Are you home?"

Arlett: you told her of the package Cori?

Jonathon Montgomery: Jon naps, pressing his face into Ethan's hair.

Cori Braun: cool, Arlett. when you get a chance, and i know that won't be now cuz yer kinda busy, can you check Jon over again, with both, please? *nods to Adri* yeah, i did.

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns to Cori "Just a moment, dear" she says into the phone, then to Cori after placing a hand over the receiver. "You spoke on a cell phone.. about kidnapping a union agent.. did she give directions over the phone as well?"

Arlett: life and time? *blinking*

The Phone with Arcane 2: d10: Per + Alertness: 6,8,6,2,

Cori Braun: dun worry, Adri. i didn't exactly say, "yo, chiquita, we bagged an MiB". i was as subtle as i could manage, and i'm sure she got it. she asked me if he was clean--subtly--and i told her he was since otherwise, you'd've said something and i'd've already pushed him out the side door.

Cori Braun: yes, Arlett. his body went from super duper to nearly crashing, and i'd like to know if it's gonna fix itself or if he needs more help. he doesn't seem in danger of dying, by the way. however--i dun have any skills with future or past, so, i can't check that aspect of it myslef.

Adriana Carmichael: She gives a tiny sigh of releif and nods to Cori. "I apologize. You had me worried." She speaks back into the cell "I'm sorry, dear. We can pick you up, I suppose if you're in town. Are you at the old place? Or out and about?"

Arlett: humm. ok...*loogging the warding spell and then taking out a credit card, pointing it to John, scanning him*

Arlett: d10: arete: 3,9,7,

Cori Braun: *nods to Adri, although she doesn't look away from the road* no prob. trust me--i understand. ((and i have about 7 minutes before i need to go to bed. got work, and i start a class tomorrow! *L*))

Adriana Carmichael: "No." She states simply.

Arlett: ((Waits to know of john))

Jonathon Montgomery: He sighs, sleeping deeply if a bit fitfully...the floor of a van is no place to get a comfy nap.

Cori Braun: *just laughs softly and keeps driving* thanks for the healing, doc. i feel tons better now.

Adriana Carmichael: (*nods* right, so i'm assuming this is to be continued at a later date, then? since cori and ethan are offness?)

Adriana Carmichael: She frowns, speaking sternly into the cell phone "I've been quite capable of differentiating colors since grade school, dear. Yes. I can spot a goddamned red building at that location."

Cori Braun: ((*wince* sad, but i guess so? unless you guys want to keep on, in which case, Cori just ends up falling asleep on the couch or something, after telling her version of things to Michelle?))

Ravyn -> Arlett: Arlett sees Jon's health returning by tomorrow.

Arlett: ((you tells.. I got an hour more rpgings))

Arlett: ((thanks!)) *and she smiles* he'll be fine in the morning *to Cori, going back to payingi full atention to her other 'spell'*

Adriana Carmichael: (i'm good for another few hours. up to rav.)

Cori Braun: *sighs with relief* thanks, Arlett. that's good to know....

Adriana Carmichael: "Very quickly." She states. "We'll be there soon, dear." She hangs up the phone and slips it into her pocket.

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Up to ya'll.))

Ravyn: ((I can continue on with you guys with Michelle...I will be slow, though. I am going to be trying to get some actual playing done myself.))

Cori Braun: ((and, i need to go. so, Cori finishes the drive, relates her end of the tale, helps lug the guys inside...and ends up falling asleep on the couch or somethign. *wry grin*))

Adriana Carmichael: (*hugs rav* just wanted to make sure we weren't stretching you thin, hon. if you want to pause we can do it another day. this has been what.. 8 hours so far?)

Jonathon Montgomery: ((Lets pause for now then. Give Ravyn a break. *G*))

Ravyn: ((Eight hours, yeah. I'm letting you know...I ~can~ continue. It's totally up to you guys.))

Arlett: ((you say... ))

Adriana Carmichael: (if jonny says pause.. we pause. *G* he's been the star of the show. that.. and playing adriana DOES give me a headache after a while. i'm running out of bitch.)

Ravyn: ((Okay. *hugs* Killing this nick now, then. Thanks, all!))
