"This should be a fun evening" Tank thinks "I just hope it doesn't turn bad I don't think I could drop everyone."
(OOC the best bet I can think of for uploading files is to PM Braddoc his is the one in charge right now Mr Johnson has left him to run the site.)

Time: 7:55 PM
The dwarf had been busy setting up all of the electronic equipments on the table ever since he returned from locking the door. One of the guards by the table opens her eye and turns to the dwarf. "Queue, it's almost time. Are you almost finished there?" "I was just finishing up here, Elle," replied the dwarf. "We may as well get started then."
The woman called Elle steps in front of the table and clears her throat. "Ahem. Thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for coming here tonight on such a short notice. We will begin in a few moments, but before that, I would like to remind you of a few things. If you have any kind of recording device, whether its audio or visual, please turn it off immediately. If it's implanted inside of you and we find out later that you were recording any of this, then I just hope that you have a very good insurance policcy. You will be speaking with out employer via this satellite. Since this is being bounced through the government satellites, this is highly illegal. We will have maximum of 15 minutes before every law enforcement within 10 miles of this place comes swarming in here. For your safety and ours, keep the conversations short and brief. Finally, I advise you to run as far and fast as soon as the meeting's over. Not just because of the aforementioned reasons, but also since this place is rigged to explode as soon as we're finished. Now, is there any questions before we begin?"

OOC: As an experiment to keep this interesting, for the duration of the conversation through satellite, one post will equal 30 seconds, no matter how long or short the conversation really is. I will be keeping tab through time stamps. I hope this turns out ok.

I start slamming my fist against my head all the while muttering in a low thunderous whisper "Turn off, turn off dammit!" After 20 secs and several bruises I'll resume a relaxed position.
<raises hand> "I have a question. When do we eat?" <starts rubbing stomach> "JEG er sulten og kunne spise noen."

Tiny looks briefly at the larger troll in disbelief.
"Perhaps we can eat later. If we have only 15 minutes to discuss biz, then I'm all ears."

Tank looks around, trying to figure out what is the best exit to get to his vehicle the quickest, after hearing about the explosives. He then procedes to turn his remote control deck off inorder to make sure as not to record any of the happenings in the room.
"Well I was woundering 2 things what the job is and what the pay is." Tank asks thinging getting to the point ever hurts unless it is the point of a blade.

"No threats here. We're just doing this out of both of our securities. Woud you want this conversation to be monitored and be used against you in the future? I don't think so. And as for the job and the pay, I don't know. My associates and I were only hired to to set up this meeting and get things organized. As soon as we connect you to the Johnson, we're out of here. As for the food and refreshments, I'll keep that in mind if we ever meet again, which I find highly doubtful. Is there anything else?"
"This is all crazy, chummers!," says one of the runners. "I am out of here before I get caught! And you're all crazy if you decide to stay here, no matter how much the pay may be." He starts to storm out towards the exit.
"I gotta agree with him. I don't want to be caught either." "Me, too." And the other two runners follow the first one out.
"It's not my place to stop you from leaving. It's your choice. Anybody else want to leave or have any more questions before we start?"
OOC: The 30 second rule wasn't informed by the character, so the characters should ignore that part of the post. I just wanted to make a time-keeping device so as to not take too long with the game, and to add a sense of urgency to the scenario. If people are against this, then we don't have to use it, seeing that we haven't started using it yet, but I would really like to try it out if nobody objects.

(OOC ya I'm fine with the idea of using the timed post, just let us know when we start running out of time it's no fun to be talking about a job then have your character blown up before he gets a chance to give the job a try.)

If there's no more questions, then let's get this thing started. Elle touches her left ear and says something too quiet for anyone to hear. She then turns towards the dwarf. They're finishing up on the outside. Queue, are you ready on your end?
I've just been waiting for you to give me the word.
She turns towards the group with a concern on her face. One more word of caution. All the cargos inside this warehouse is filled with explosives, so I would recommend against any kind of guns blazing in here. The computer and all the communication devices are also rigged, so I wouldn't tamper with it after we leave. And now, without further ado, I give you, your Johnson. Do it now, Queue.
After a few taps on the keyboard, the screen comes to life. Thank you, Elle. Excellent work there. I can see why you came so highly recommended. The rest of your payment has been transferred to the account, as per our agreement. The voice on the other side is obviously masked and scrambled, as to not make the voice identifiable. The only thing on visual is an animated mouth which moved along with whatever the Johnson was saying. There is also a timer on the upper left corner of the display, ticking down.
Thank you. Now if you'll excuse me, I believe my team and I will extract from here before the party comes to a hault.
Goodnight, Elle. And good evening to you gentlemen. Thank you for joining me here tonight on such a short notice. Since we seem to be on a tight schedule, let's get right to business. First of all, how many of you are there?

"I think four from my count." Tank answers as he begins to spin the white ring on his index finger.
"They better not set those explosives off early" Tank thinks to himself as he trys to figure out what can be done if they do.

"Ya I can drive decently I'm rigged. I want to know the pay for putting my vehicle on the line of fire though." Tank answers keeping a close eye on the clock counting down.
"If those explosives mess up my Pill Box's paint job I'll be mad as hell."He thinks to himself. as he starts running the math of how fast his little legs can get him to his meduim transport. "minute maybe should go for two." as he looks over at the 12' tall giant "He can catch up If I leave early. And fill me in on anything I miss"
After which Tanks mind begins to wander back to the book on the dash of his truck. "Oh I wonder if the mage will get it, or maybe the dragon will eat him for entering his dwealing... I can't wait to find out. NO NO think of what is at hand If thouse explosives go off I'm done for and I'll never know the out come."

Time left: 13 minutes, 00 seconds
"If your really good, then you wouldn't be in the line of fire. Or was I wrong in sending out that email to you?" Even with the voice scrambler, everyone can hear the threat in the Johnson's voice. After a slight pause, the Johnson continues.
"Anyway, I WAS going to offer you a vehicle to use for transport, but I'm having second thoughts now. As for any payments, you will receive a down payment upon acceptance of the mission, and at least double the amount on completion of the mission. You will receive penalties if you botch up any part of the mission. This is a package retrieval/interception mission and the time limit is 3 days. Now, I will give all of you one last chance to back out, because after I tell you the details, I will assume that you are committed."
OOC: scawire, if you want compensation for your vehicle or want to go for the Johnson's vehicle, roll for negotiation. If anyone else wants to negotiate for the Johnson's vehicle, you are free to do so also. Just don't forget about the 30 second rule. You may discuss amongst yourselves (by PM) to get a representative to roll if you wish.
OOC2: Everyone also post their acceptance (or rejection) of the mission in character. This will only count as ONE post for this session only.
