OK - between you, the drone is investigated - anyone got electronics tools, or will you use a knife blade ?... the drone is , you think, aleady out of commission and had a slug embedded in it. wires are disconnected reasonably carefully. Removal of parts, or a concerned look atthe circuitry needs a quiet immobile environment, the table on a bus up the mountain is makeshift.
two miles on, with the lights on high, was that a flying tyre up ahead..? about to take its revenge ?
(OOC - Next person to post, give another group spot x5 dice pleeze.. Not far to the mining area. if you dont spot it, you cant shoot it from the windows, until it is close. Everyone IS keeping an eye out - watch the skies! )

here are your 5 dice [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6]
rule of 6 [dice=6]
nina climbs onto the bus finds cover and starts to access the matrix to find any info on the drone that was just shot.[rand=9514617266210067752640745652544076656170027524679208354143417408]

I think you still need matrix access - Fryer has a deck - you got a sattelite connection ? probably - but youll still need a booster, and the nearest comms tower was down last you knew...
Drone! Drone coming in ! What do you want me to do guys? Lucille shouts as you all catch sight the flying tyre in the bright headlights 100 metres off, side slipping at a nice 50kph ..zig zagging its way towards you.. much harder to hit as it is at speed...

"Fraggin' drek, 'nother one....Get in the bus Lucille, get it started and head for the mine, no stopping for nuthin'!" Four-Eyes stayed between the drone and Lucille while she heads for the bus, when she's safely aboard, he'll jump in shotgun, weapon in hand.

Fryer shakes his head after jacking out . " Looks like u guys are have ing some fun."
He put the dack aside and draws his Browning . " What am I shooting at ? "
" Oh and by the way I used Willies Password and raped his accounts for around 8k . Then went into his corp and stole a rating 10 armor program . There wil be a cut after a I or we find a way to launder it . " Fryer says as he drops his window enough to take a shot at the drone .

Hunter sits back. no reason to try and shoot anything while moving, but he does lower his window. hes not going to stick his head out though. someone behind him will. *i think, if not, then he will...* "Lucille, what this buss needs is a turret opening on top for someone...."

Yeah - an wings ! I wish.. The bus should be OK as long as the thing doesnt get a lucky hit somewhere - The headlights will probably take a pounding, but theyre as tough as the rest of the front
She takes the bus up a few gears - quite quicklu up to 50 -anything much faster and youll be rolling downhill sideways off the road, not a good plan.
The drone is swaying in a zig-zag - well, an S -pattern keping up its speed of around 50-60 - after three snakey moves, with everyone on the bus judging where it is going to be by moving head and shoulders side to side following the motion in a slow beat.. you can all rush to the left side when you realise you can all get a pot-shot off at it as you pass..
a broadside! -- realising it is going to be a lucky shot to hit it at around 20 metres away, moving quickly...

Four-Eyes gets on the bus, not leaving his sight on the drone, fallowing it's movement patern with his revolver's sight. confident he can predict his next location, he fires a shot at it.

Blam - KranggK
your slug hits the weaving bim-lid sending it sliding wobbly sideways into the treetops, recovering itself, it begins to weave back up the road - looking slower tikking a little as if the rotors have been put out slightly. It doesnt seem as impetuous as the other one..
- no doubt taking a few more shots as it goes

Hunter moves up to an open window, grabbing his rifle, and resting it parly out of the window, activating the smartlink as he goes. [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] (gun does 11d damage)[rand=801143651579799507133896460207345498556443865992963623977629911098]

Hunter, your powder is damp mate. You need more practice:) .
Though the drone travelling at around 40-50 now, and weaving, as Four- Eyes regains his aim... it its travelling back towards the mining site, which is as of yet a mere blip on the map..
A few more pot shots at the poor thing will bring it down, into the forest.... Lucille is not going to stop to pick up another antagonistic bin -lid
BUT you do stop before arriving in the site..
lucille conflabs with the guy on the gate.. there is a 7ft perimeter fence, double netting at he base.. this seems to srtetch around what was a big vent hole from an old eruption. You can tell it is old because it is no longer belching clouds of toxic gas or molten rock....
Four concrete blocks crawl out of the way of the bus to let you through - big concrete blocks with, drone multilegs - you all watch them suspiciously.
She greets a dwarf on the way into the flattened area compound. there are a variety of big heavy vehicles part rotting , parked around the edges of the site, ounds of debris, containers and work huts in a jumble of repair and disrepair.. if people wated to stay, surely they would make the place easier to live in, or dont they care too much about home comforts, --bit like living out of a bus for a few weeks.......
no home comforts here, this is basic - burger vans need regular supplies.... no burger vans...
bloody hell youre in the backwoods - you realise that soft bogroll is worth its weight in... sliver?
A lot of prefab buildings.. 50- 60.. a variety of dwellings - some are definately shops, most are domiciles (houses)
the vent hole is around 400/500 metres across as a rough caldera - a crater. Most of the dwelings are by the entrance gate.
The fence stretches around the crater about 100m further out- looks like it keeps out animals.
there are pock-holes in the crater rim, with mining debris in a cascade from each, all around the perimeter.. looks busy.
The bus parks up, you all stretch your legs - not really entranced by the basic working conditions maintained by the place. Waiting for someone ...Who soon scurries up..
Ballastor.. how are you and your crew here?
we're doin well Lucille - you got the things we need?
We got a lot of stuff on board Ballistor - you got to to trade with my supplier, but I got a heap of goodies like soft white rolls, and some basic medical checks... Can you get a message out from here? The signal was blocked from the Falls area, is the antenna down? Anyone sent off to repair it?
*Not our problem Lucille- if the signal dont work, we keep on mining away, signals dont affect us...*
Bloody does , Ballastor - if I cant contact my supplier, you dont get the goods, and my journey is worthless. You do not trade on 'tick' nor does my supplier. This is going to cause a lot of bad feeling with your mining community. They want the tools, I got what they want, but the deal needs to be made, which needs a contact link to Seattle. And your fone link is out.
Hey, I'll trade your guys soft rolls and paper as a good wil gesture. But the tools stay on board. My guys have just been through hell an back with a mountain demon just now, You get your act together or I take this lot south.
Lucille sounds harsh in her opening business play - is she holding them to ransome, or does she know something about past negotations.....
Anyone want to chip in with anything?
(Four-eyes would have got a karma for his excellent premeditated well worked out shot - good thinking ! but you will need another to gain a second pistol karma.. but youre half-way there!.. means of course, that he looks a little twitchy -
Four-Eyes, depends if you want your next shot to count as a shot 'tick', or to hold fire until youre certain of the target.... quick shot, or make sure....?

Arriving at the mine Area, Four-Eyes reload and holsters his weapon, observing the surroundings. Leaving the bus, he lights up a smoke, sticking close to Lucille..all those drones looks like trouble, not to mention the way the negotiations are going..

Fryer gets off the bus and stretches . Thinking Oma I could build a fleet of vehicalce here to rent back home .
" What are you guys mining here ? Looks like a farely big opperation . Also if we're go to stay I maybe able to help you people out with any broken electronics . I have a skill which it looks like you may need . If we could work out a price and if I have time . Depends on how fast you get the tower up and working I guess ."
