<```Pierre> "hmmm, he's dead, that's bad"
<```Shawna> "I couldn't find... Oh my god... Mr Brown, is he dead"
*** waterh is now known as Steve
<```Nick> "Yeah unfortunately."
* ```Pierre starts examining the corpse, not touching it
*** Steve is now known as Stev-o
* ```Nick goes to the front door and calls for the cop by the door of the other house
<Stev-o> it looks like a corpse
<Stev-o> you're too far away.
<```Pierre> "yup definatley dead"
<```Pierre> ---am I in the room?
<Stev-o> nick's too far away
* ```Shawna stares in disbelief, crying softly
<```Shawna> "What happened to him? Who did this?"
* ```Nick walks down the street to get the cop
<Stev-o> a moment after nick steps outside the door
<Stev-o> a large van almost hits him.
<```Pierre> "I have no idea, have you seen anyone come or go?"
*** Stev-o is now known as evil_gm
<evil_gm> roll quick nick.
<```Nick> 6d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Nick 6d6 ( 8 5 5 1 3 8 )
<```Nick> "What the hell?"
<evil_gm> you manage to jump out of the way
<evil_gm> unfortunately, you jump directly into the plate glass storefront of the book store.
<evil_gm> roll body.
<```Pierre> "what the?"
<```Nick> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Nick 4d6 ( 5 1 5 2 )
<evil_gm> hmm
* ```Pierre hears the glass breaking (hopefully) and ducks under something
<evil_gm> what's the damage code on a plate glass window :)?
<```Nick> ---hehe got me
<```Pierre> ----whatever you want, probably like (rating)S
<evil_gm> you have some minor scratches and a rather large gash on your left arm
<evil_gm> meanwhile
<evil_gm> the van has stopped
<evil_gm> directly infront of the doorway
* ```Nick rolls and looks out the window
<evil_gm> the side door bursts open
* ```Pierre has already ducked under whatever cover he could find
* ```Pierre pulls Shawna down
<evil_gm> a strike team bursts into the book store and quickly takes control of the situation
<```Nick> "Get down, now. Incoming"
*** evil_gm is now known as STrike_TEam
<```Shawna> "What the..."
<STrike_TEam> "GET THE FRAG ON THE FLOOR, NOW!"
<STrike_TEam> most of you are already on the floor, btw.
* ```Shawna falls to her knees being pulled down
<STrike_TEam> no one remember's nar's character's name?
<```Pierre> ---sorry
* ```Nick lays out on his stomach
<```Shawna> ----hehe I do it's Leon
* ```Pierre is already down cowring
<STrike_TEam> Leon is being a little slow today.
<```Pierre> --err cowering
<STrike_TEam> he doesn't get on the floor.
<```Nick> "I think this is all a big mistake!! Do not fire!!"
<STrike_TEam> two members of the strike team take out their night sticks and beat him to the ground.
<STrike_TEam> so he's out for the count.
<```Shawna> "Now see here, who do you think you are?"
<STrike_TEam> "Ronny, cuff em"
<```Pierre> "cuff me for what?"
* ```Nick keeps his hands out in the open of everyone
<STrike_TEam> does anyone resist them?
<```Pierre> "I did do notin"
* ```Pierre doesn't resist though
<```Nick> "If you would check my ID I can clear all this up"
<STrike_TEam> the head strike team guy comes over to you nick
<```Shawna> "Why are we being cuffed, I work here, I'll need to close the store"
<STrike_TEam> "yea we know who you are o'connel. lets just hope for your sake you didn't go against the corporation."
<STrike_TEam> head strike team guy glances at shawna
<STrike_TEam> "We'll be here for a while, it'll be fine."
<STrike_TEam> they file you into the back of the van
<```Nick> "Excuse me? I was going to get some help with the body in the back. He was gutted like the guy down the street"
<STrike_TEam> so you're all thrown into the paddywagon
* STrike_TEam goes into the cab 
*** STrike_TEam is now known as evil_gm
<evil_gm> the van starts moving.
<```Pierre> "like I said, I didn't do nothin why I being arrested?"
<```Nick> "I hope you know what you are doing! My superiors will not like this!"
* ```Nick yells through the wall
<evil_gm> they probably can't hear you, and if they can, they don't care.
* ```Shawna looks to the 2 guys with her
<```Pierre> "oh well, I hope they feed well, I am still starving"
* ```Pierre tries to get comfortable
<```Shawna> "What is going on? Why do they want us?"
<```Shawna> "I'm Shawna Jameson"
<evil_gm> the van feels like its pulling onto the freeway
<```Pierre> "and I am Pierre"
<```Nick> "Don't worry about it I will get us out of this mess. My name is Nick O'Connell by the way"
<```Pierre> "hey, Mr. Wage Mon, they didn't take my knife, maybe you can jimmy the locks with the blade? or should we just wait?"
<evil_gm> you're cuffed behind the back
<evil_gm> getting out of it would be a trick.
<```Shawna> "I wish I could say it's nice to meet you both, but I'm confused and your other friend is hurt"
<```Pierre> "he's no friend of mine, maybe a friend of a friend"
<```Nick> "Better wait Pierre. We should be fine"
<```Pierre> "you know, most the people I know that carted off by the corps never returned"
* ```Nick looks at Shawna
<```Nick> "Do not worry Miss everything will be ok, I promise"
<```Shawna> "Not your friend, he came into the shop with you, what do you both have to do with this?"
* ```Shawna percieves them both
<```Pierre> "hey, I was just walking along and saw somthin, a friend of mine said he could help"
* ```Pierre spits on Leon
<```Pierre> "some help, now I am arrested and taken to de corps"
<evil_gm> you feel the car pulling off of the freeway
<```Nick> "All I can say right now is that I was investigating the murder when I met Pierre and Leon there and we saw the dust on your doorstep and wanted to check you out"
<evil_gm> no plans for escape?
<```Shawna> "Don't do that, he's hurt, leave him be this is not his fault"
<evil_gm> ok then
<evil_gm> the van stops
<```Pierre> "bah, what you know little girl? when I ask for help and get arrested he deserves worse"
<```Shawna> "Well we've gotten on and off the freeway I think, do you think they are really legit"
<```Nick> "Lets hope they are"
<```Pierre> "their guns legit enough for me"
<evil_gm> the door slides open and the strike team is there
<evil_gm> still carrying guns that are bigger than their forearms
* ```Nick looks around at the background
<evil_gm> you are ushered out silently
* ```Pierre looks around, trying to figure what part of the city he is in
<```Shawna> "Well for one I know it's not his fault, and I'm not a little girl"
<evil_gm> where you are now standing is the middle of a large parking structure
* ```Shawna looks at everything
<evil_gm> strike team: "SHUT UP"
<```Shawna> "What are you doing with us?"
<evil_gm> he raises his gun as if threatening to smack you with it
<evil_gm> the following events happen in rapid sequence
<```Nick> "Just do as they tell us and we should be okay"
<evil_gm> you are put into an elevator, with the strike team
<evil_gm> they usher each of you into separate rooms where you are strip searched and thouroughly sprayed with a odd smelling chemical
* ```Shawna glares at the person threatening to smack her with his gun
<```Nick> ---Joy we are being deloused :)
<evil_gm> they return your clothes to you, which have been thouroughly washed
* ```Pierre smells the chemical thinking 1"I have smelled worse things"
<evil_gm> you are then reunited in a tiny white cell that is seemless.
<```Pierre> "whoa, laundry service, mebbe thats why none of my friends came back"
<evil_gm> and you can start talking again now.
<```Shawna> "What is the meaning of all this?"
<```Pierre> ---is Leon with us?
<evil_gm> leon is not with you
<```Pierre> ---okay
<evil_gm> well improvise!
<```Nick> "I have no idea why they arrested us, they have better have a good reason though or heads will roll"
* ```Nick starts to pace around the cell
<```Pierre> "maybe cause they think we have dust on us, what is that word...queeritine"
<```Shawna> "I'll be back, keep an eye out"
<evil_gm> how do you intend to leave the cell?
* ```Shawna sits in a corner and astrally projects
<```Pierre> "so, Mr Wage-mon, what you think they arrested us for?"
<evil_gm> roll body shawna
<```Shawna> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Shawna 4d6 ( 3 11 5 5 )
<evil_gm> and will power
<```Shawna> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Shawna 4d6 ( 1 3 2 5 )
<evil_gm> ok you throw up a little and pass out.
<```Nick> "No idea"
* ```Nick goes to her and checks her vitals
<```Pierre> "that's not good"
<evil_gm> she's alive but not concious
<```Pierre> "that's very not good"
* ```Nick makes sure she does not choke on it and goes to have a seat in the corner
<```Nick> "Nothing else to do but wait"
<```Pierre> "yup"
<evil_gm> and at that
<evil_gm> a door that seemingly a moment before was not there
<evil_gm> slides open.
* ```Nick stands up
<evil_gm> a guy in a lab coat steps inside.
*** evil_gm is now known as lab_tech
<lab_tech> "hi."
<```Nick> "Who are you?"
<lab_tech> "Dave. I work in the lab"
* lab_tech is holding some kind of estoric electronic device
<```Pierre> "okay, that's nice, what you want with us?"
<```Nick> "Well Dave can you tell us what is going on here?"
<lab_tech> its bigger than his head and is composed, uncharacteristic of modern technology, of many glass tubes and exposed circuits
<lab_tech> he avoids your question
<lab_tech> "I see your friend tried to use magic"
* ```Nick shrugs
<```Nick> "Guess so, what happened to her?"
<```Nick> "Could you get someone in here to clean up her mess?"
<lab_tech> "Yea we set up a pretty big vacuum around these rooms so that those magic freaks couldn't use their spells"
* ```Nick nods in understanding
<lab_tech> "You know what happens to a mage when they're in space and try and do some mumbo jumbo don't you?"
<```Nick> ---is the door still open?
* lab_tech makes a loud popping noise
<```Pierre> "she gonna die?"
<lab_tech> the door's still open
<lab_tech> "she'll be fine, just don't let her choke on her own tongue or anything"
* ```Nick slowly edges his way to the door
* lab_tech notices
<lab_tech> "Nice try"
<lab_tech> "enough pleasantries, both of you sit down like good boys"
<```Nick> "Hey, do you blame me? Are we going to get a phone call"
* ```Pierre stays standing just for spite
* ```Nick continues standing also
<lab_tech> "these rooms are capable of injected 23,283 different kinds of toxins into the air"
<```Shawna> ---hehehe guess they don't want to play good boys
<lab_tech> "from a mild seditive to powerful poisons"
<lab_tech> "would you like to guess which i will use on you?"
<```Nick> "Dave I do not care. I would like to place a call to my superiors"
<lab_tech> "Your superiors are well aware of your situation"
<```Nick> "Then why in the hell am I here?"
<lab_tech> "They regret to inform you that you are herby released from active duty"
<```Nick> "On what grounds?"
<lab_tech> "Contamination"
<```Nick> "Of what?"
<lab_tech> "would you care to sit now or should I have the guards assist me"
<```Pierre> "I told you Mr Wage-mon, the corps don't let anyone come back when they take them"
* ```Pierre sits with a 1"hurrumph"
<```Nick> "Answer my question first"
<lab_tech> "Guards!"
* ```Nick sits
<lab_tech> two impressively large guys come in
<lab_tech> "Very good. Guys see that the nice lady in the corner gets cleaned up"
<```Nick> "Could you answer my question please"
<lab_tech> they clean up the mess and sit her up, following this they leave.
<lab_tech> "Yea just a second"
<lab_tech> he is preoccupied with the device in his hand
* ```Nick stands back up and waits
<lab_tech> he points it at each of you, when he does it makes a wizzing click noise
<```Pierre> "what is that thing? I've only seen things like that in the trids"
<lab_tech> then it ejects a glass cartridge into the tech's hand
<```Pierre> "old trids"
<lab_tech> "All done."
<lab_tech> "As for your question, Mr. O'connel"
<lab_tech> "We believe that you may be infected with a virus that could destroy the world as we know it"
<lab_tech> roll willpower shawna
<```Nick> "Great, how did we come in contact with this virus?"
<```Shawna> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Shawna 4d6 ( 1 5 4 4 )
<lab_tech> after he says that he leaves the room
<lab_tech> the door shuts
<lab_tech> you are again alone
<lab_tech> shawna groggily half awakens
<```Nick> "You okay cheri?"
* ```Shawna looks around and lays her head down
<```Shawna> "Oh no, it's not a bad dream, you're real and so is all this."
<```Nick> "Yep, sorry."
<```Shawna> "Do you know what's going on yet?"
<lab_tech> a lot of this campaign is role playing, btw, so get used to it.
<```Pierre> "at least I am cleaner than before"
* ```Nick tells her what we found out
<lab_tech> shawna's like, damn good at this.
<```Shawna> ---thank you
<lab_tech> ok since you're all not very motivated right now, we'll move along
<```Pierre> "okay, so, we are infected with a virus that could detroy the world, and we are destined to die in here"
* ```Nick starts to pace the cell obvious agitated
<```Pierre> "well, better be well rested for the end of the world or whatever"
* ```Pierre lies down and tries to rest
<lab_tech> the cell so far has been dead quiet.
<```Shawna> "They think that we are infected with a virus, if I got it, I got it from you guys, I was perfectly healthy this morning"
*** lab_tech is now known as evil_gm
<```Nick> "We all were"
<```Pierre> "hey, so was I, so Leon musta given it to me"
<evil_gm> the cell is very quiet now
<evil_gm> roll perception everyone
* ```Nick looks around for that door again and for anyway out of here
<```Pierre> 3d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Pierre 3d6 ( 8 2 5 )
<```Nick> 6d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Nick 6d6 ( 2 5 9 2 5 5 )
<```Shawna> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Shawna 4d6 ( 5 5 11 3 )
<evil_gm> you all hear a soft popping
* ```Shawna looks around
<evil_gm> like the sound that your knuckles make when you snap them one at a time
<```Pierre> "ummm, Mr. Wage-mon, what is that noise?"
<evil_gm> its getting louder
<```Nick> "Don't know."
<```Pierre> "this can't be good"
<evil_gm> now you can hear something that you've never heard before
* ```Nick continues looking around the cell
<evil_gm> its like a pig's bleat but sustained
<evil_gm> everything is muffled by the cell
<evil_gm> except for this new sound
<evil_gm> this one is like
<```Pierre> "it's the corps man, that are gonna kill us"
* ```Shawna slowly walks the perimeter of the room listening carefully to hear when it gets louder
<evil_gm> like the air going out of a baloon
<evil_gm> roll perception shawna
<```Nick> "If they wanted us dead we would be that allready
* ```Nick stands to the side of where the door opened
<```Shawna> 4d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 0,1 0,1 0,1 --- ```Shawna 4d6 ( 4 2 8 5 )
<```Pierre> "naw, they are experimenting man, those chemicals, they were bad stuff"
<```Shawna> "Shhh"
<evil_gm> you see a nearly invisible fog rolling out of the corners of the cell
* ```Nick takes of his jacket
<evil_gm> you all start to get drowsy
<evil_gm> meanwhile the popping has been getting continually louder
<```Pierre> "so much for that idea"
<```Shawna> "Guys we've got gas coming in"
* ```Pierre covers his mouth with his jacket
* ```Nick tries to hold his breath
<evil_gm> it doesn't do any good
* ```Shawna looks for a vent
<evil_gm> it's more of a liquid than a gas, like a fog
<evil_gm> your skin absorbs it in addition to you inhaling it
<evil_gm> just before you all lose conciousness
<evil_gm> the door slides open
* ```Nick sits before he passes out
<evil_gm> there's blood all over the corridor
<evil_gm> big black men with guns come into your cell
<evil_gm> before you finally go under you can hear them say
<evil_gm> "You'll all be..."
<evil_gm> and then it becomes black.
* ```Shawna passes out falling
<evil_gm> everybody roll a die
<```Pierre> 1d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 --- ```Pierre 1d6 ( 8 )
<```Nick> ---Did I mention that I snore
<```Nick> 1d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 --- ```Nick 1d6 ( 2 )
<```Shawna> 1d6
<Knever_the_Knowbot> 0,1 --- ```Shawna 1d6 ( 5 )
<evil_gm> damn
<evil_gm> ok
<evil_gm> when you finally do awake, you can't tell what's going on
<evil_gm> because, when you went under, it was black
<evil_gm> and now it's still black
* ```Shawna looks around confused and scared
<evil_gm> much like being in the cell, one of your chief senses is hearing
* ```Nick blinks his eyes and switches to Thermo
<evil_gm> fucking cyberware, ruins the effect
<```Nick> ---heehee, sorry :)
<evil_gm> you can see lots of bodies grouped together
* ```Pierre blinks and still doesn't see anything
<evil_gm> you can tell that you might be with your comrades
<```Nick> "Everyone okay?" *Whispering*
* ```Shawna listens carefully for anything
<```Pierre> "yeah Mr. Wage-mon, just a little groggy"
<```Shawna> "I'm here"
<evil_gm> shawna: you hear breathing, and your friends chatter
<evil_gm> random mumbling fills some far corner of the room, giving some dimension to your surroundings
<evil_gm> it sounds as if it could be as large as someone's basement
<```Nick> ---How many bodies are there?
<```Shawna> ---thank you
* ```Shawna turns in the direction of the noise
<evil_gm> you still see nothing.
<evil_gm> a light pierces the dark
<evil_gm> it hurts your eyes
<evil_gm> eventually it fades into the beam of a flashlight
<```Pierre> "okay, now that is bright"
* ```Nick looks to the light switching to normal vision using his hand to block the light
*** evil_gm is now known as flashlight
<```Nick> "Who is there?"
<flashlight> "Can you walk?"
<flashlight> you can.
<```Pierre> "yeah"
* ```Shawna closes her eyes and opens them slowly
<```Shawna> "Yeah"
<flashlight> "Come with me. You are not in danger."
<```Nick> "Yeah, who are you?"
<flashlight> he starts to walk away
<```Pierre> "yeah, right whatever"
* ```Pierre follows anyway
* ```Nick stands and heads in that direction
<flashlight> the only thing you can follow is the light of the flash;light
<```Shawna> "Ok"
* ```Shawna follows the flashlight
<flashlight> you go up a set of stairs and then you find yourself in a tattered hallway
* ```Shawna looks around
<flashlight> it appears to be a very very old immitation victorian type of house
<flashlight> the man is a large, black man like you saw at the corp.
<flashlight> "How are you feeling?"
* ```Nick looks around
<```Nick> "Fine, could you tell us what is going on here?"
<```Pierre> "well, confused"
<flashlight> "You were taken prisoner by a corporation."
<```Shawna> "I'm ok, where are we, I'm very confused with all this"
<flashlight> "We liberated you, and those like you"
<```Pierre> "this I figured"
<```Nick> "Which one?"
<flashlight> "Aztechnology."
<```Shawna> "Thank you very much, now what do we do?"
<flashlight> "Well you three seem to have been most directly involved in the situation"
<```Pierre> "why did they take us prisoner?"
<flashlight> "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Dickie"
*** flashlight is now known as Dickie``
<```Pierre> "and I, am Pierre"
<```Nick> "My name is Nick O'Connel"
<```Shawna> "I'm Shawna"
<Dickie``> "Please come with me, I will explain further"
<```Shawna> "There was another man with them, he was hurt, is he still alive?"
* Dickie`` leads you down a hallway 
* ```Shawna follows
* ```Nick follows
* Dickie`` leads you into what looks like a den
<Dickie``> there are three other men here
<Dickie``> one of them is white, and he is the exception
* ```Shawna looks around and checks out the guys
<Dickie``> "Allow me to introduce Andrew, Iris, and Dr. Dan"
<Dickie``> dr. dan is the white one.
<```Shawna> "Hello"
<Dickie``> they all exchange greetings with you
<```Pierre> "hello Doc"
<Dickie``> "I will allow Dr. Dan to speak now"
*** Dickie`` is now known as Dr
*** Dr is now known as DrDan
<```Nick> "Nive to meet you"
* DrDan is a little zany. He appears to be about 30 but his hair is stark white, he hasn't slept in days and reaks of pepto bismal and gin
<DrDan> "Hey kids"
<DrDan> "How are you feeling?"
* ```Nick starts to look for a way to get out in a hurry if he has to
<```Pierre> "dunno yet"
<DrDan> the majority of the house is very old
<```Nick> "Fine, a little confused about what is going on though"
<DrDan> the windows are boarded up
<DrDan> "Oh well, see, you were kidnapped by Aztechnology so they could drek around with your minds and make you the servants of an elder god they are going to bring to earth."
<```Pierre> "okay...."
<```Shawna> "Fine, oh my goodness, do you always look like and smell like this, no offense intended"
<DrDan> "Its been a long time since I could afford to sleep"
<```Pierre> "elder god.... what does this have to do with me?"
<```Nick> "Great, guess I can scratch them off my employment oppurtunities then"
* ```Shawna shows some interest
<DrDan> "You all have seen the first battles of the war -- Mr. Akumara and Mr. Brown. Unfortunately the other side one those battles"
<```Shawna> "God, which God?"
<DrDan> "Dumuzi has taken those souls."
<DrDan> the black men shift a bit
<```Shawna> "That makes you nervous? Why?"
* ```Shawna looks to the black men
<DrDan> "Dumuzi is not one to be tampered with, his name invokes fear from those who know him."
<```Nick> "Who are what is Dumuzi?"
<```Shawna> "Please pay attention, he's a God"
<```Pierre> "okay okay, hold on a sec, they were gonna sacrifice us to this elder god thing....."
<DrDan> "Not sacrafice"
* ```Shawna thinks trying to remember what she knows of this God, if anything
<DrDan> "You would've become one of his minions"
<DrDan> "As Akumara and Brown have"
<DrDan> none of you have ever heard the name before.
* ```Nick looks around for a place to sit
<DrDan> there are chairs for you to sit in
<```Shawna> "This is quite interesting"
<DrDan> old, leather covered arm chairs that would be sold with a nice desk sit
<```Shawna> "So they are both now, like zombies?"
<DrDan> they have fallen into disrepair and are covered in duct tape
* ```Pierre sits down
<DrDan> "They are demons on earth. They are the incarnation of evil."
<DrDan> there is a loud noise from somewhere in the building
* ```Nick sits down and rubs his head feeling a headache coming on
<DrDan> Dickie and another man get up and check it out.
* ```Shawna sits
<DrDan> "You three"
<DrDan> "Have been enlisted in our little war."
<```Pierre> "so I am a soldier now, better that than a bum"
<```Nick> "What was that noise, should we be worried?"
<DrDan> "Probably some of your friends in the basement waking up."
<DrDan> A black man, previously identified as Andrew, passes a liquor bottle to DrDan
* DrDan takes a swig
<DrDan> "Drink?"
<```Shawna> "How can we help?"
<```Pierre> "do I get a big gun?"
<```Nick> "Yes, please"
* DrDan hands over the bottle
* ```Pierre puts his hand for the bottle
* ```Nick takes the bottle and takes a swig
<```Pierre> "please?"
<DrDan> its some kind of cheap overproofed rum
<```Shawna> "Umm, no thank you"
<DrDan> it makes you sick to your stomach
<```Pierre> ---hey that's the best kind for a bum
<```Nick> "uh, smooth"
<DrDan> "Well we don't have, as it were, a complete team to undertake the..."
* DrDan trails off and looks for a word
<```Shawna> "Um, how can we help you?"
<DrDan> "For lack of a better word, missions that we need to prevent the end of the world, the Comming of Dumuzi."
<```Pierre> "oooh, we get to save the world"
<DrDan> "Don't get a big head about it. You'll probably die in the process."
<```Nick> "And what needs to be done?"
<```Shawna> "Oh, my this sounds big, very big, are we enough?"
<DrDan> "The two who you have met, Brown and Akumara, need to be eliminated."
<DrDan> "We need to do more research on the enemy to destroy them first, however."
<DrDan> "Lastly, we must destroy Aztech."
* DrDan turns to Shawna
<DrDan> "No."
<```Pierre> "sounds fun"
<```Nick> "Is that all? I thought it was going to be hard or something" 
* ```Nick says sarcastically
<DrDan> the two men return.
* DrDan looks at them
<```Shawna> "This does not sound good at all"
<DrDan> they offer no reply
* DrDan turns back to the group.
<DrDan> "Yea, pretty cool huh?"
<```Nick> "What do you have in the way of weapons?"
<```Pierre> "sure, as long as I can get some good food and clean clothes, maybe a place to sleep, I am thre"
<DrDan> "we do have a makeshift barracks set up in this old townhouse"
<```Shawna> "Will you be getting more help for this battle?"

<```Pierre> "thanks I needed that"
* ```Pierre hands it back to Dan
<DrDan> "You can stay here and fight for the cause."
<DrDan> "Or"
<```Shawna> "Perhaps we can come up with a way to stop him and his followers"
<DrDan> "You can go outside and wait for the end."
<DrDan> "I assume you'll go with option A."
<```Nick> "Thing is all we have to go on is your word that this is happening"
<DrDan> "Take a look outside."
* ```Pierre looks outside
<```Shawna> "It appears to be the only logical thing for right now, so what is your plan?"
<DrDan> "This is Desire, my friend, if it were going to happen somewhere, it'd happen here first!"
* ```Nick goes to the window and looks out
<DrDan> in order to look outside, you'd literally have to go outside

<DrDan> because the windows are all boarded up.
