Angel smiles at Quick and tries not to roll her eyes at the sight of Four Eyes' disgusted expression while she listens to Lucille's story. Peaches' plan sounded good. A convoy to accompany the bus, and as she recalled, the van was not unarmed or without armor.
She also echoes Peaches' gratitude for Quick's hospitality. She wasn't entirely accustomed to offers of hospitality from anyone, though it was not unusual to be offered such by a fellow elf.
Angel also takes note of the sights and sounds of the festival. They were almost too distracting for her to focus on the task at hand, but she manages. She also notes that there were a great many Orks about, and she takes one step closer to Peaches. Orks didn't always like her kind, so she makes a note not to prowl the grounds of the festival alone...

(OOC oh I was think out back of the Log cabin in a fire pit but I'm fine with else where)
"I got just under 100 Yen plus what I've made on the bus so far to help Hunter get what he needs but that is about it for right now. Sorry I bought some Elemental Supplys thinking the extra help may be needed down the line." Micro says to Four Eyes when they leave the Hopspital
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Well we do have an RV too we could drive one up front of the bus and one behind the thing that way people in front and behind will not get the best view of the Bus." Micro states as he saw those big guns pop out of the RV to moe down the "Swat team" that jumped him.
"This time I'm planing to have some Elemental back up. I know these 2 are weak Elementals but any army of pesents can still take out a hand full of Samurai" Micro thinks as he lights up a smoke.
"Oh we should have atleast two people watching over the bus well we are here, plus a drone and a watcher spirit, So I think we need to decide what the shifts will be."
"I guess we will have to find out everyones talents so we can balance out who is stuck watching the thing with who." Micro thinks well he waits to hear what everyone thinks of the idea.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Who is this Elf guy, I'm starting to get glad I only joined at the mine. This could be bad, you never know when they are talking about something you have no info on." Taking a drag from his smoke he decides to astrally precive and get an Assensing on the guy. (never know may help)
Assensing Int 6 (TN 4),(pg 171 main book) [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] Rolls 3,1,6,3,1,5 (2 successes)
Complement Aura Reading 4 (TN 4, 2 successes = 1 extra success) Rolls 4,6,5,3 (3 successes, Total 3) [dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][rand=309408698474581514068152424785862055389804483036549031310159016334]

astral gives you a blank from the female Russian elf Illiya talking to Lucille - a norm no magics
If you are thinking about the elf language and not being unable to understand it - only a few do! - anyone out there speak Welsh? Dwyn siariad Cymraeg un tipyn bach ! (and spell badly) or Chinese - or street?
Good thoughts on security..

Peaches scratches his head. "Um, sorry if 'dis has already been mentioned, but you ever 'tink about changin' plates on da bus and paintin' it up to look like some'ting else? Like, a sports team coach or a sight-seein' bus or sumpin'?"

"Be right back all ." Fryer gets up and heads to the washroom then back to the bus . Thinking the less I answer about the windego the less chance it could be traced back to the corp slag .
Once Fryer gets back to the bus he lights a small camp light and starts to clean his weapons , never know when they'll be needed . Then gets a bottle of water and a head ache pill .
Must remember to stop in to see Hunter before I turn in . Maybe help out with his medical bills .
After 30 mins or so with the headache on the run Fryer heads over to see if hunter needs anything .

Fryer ups and offs after Illiya has introduced herself and what she is here for - no mention of any payment - just a statement of purpose... maybe Fry dont like elfs too!
Micro stares at her with that blank expression that mages do sometimes.. been chatting with Four-Eyes about summoning - I'm sure Four-Eyes will get back to you with his thoughts on spirits .. as you are returning from visiting Hunter.
(three total successes gains you a good assensing - the elf is not awakened and has a neutural calm relaxed aura - you would pick up some of the others too.. when the Vendigo is mentioned - Fry and Four-Eyes both radiate concern - the others, mild to big shock.. a dash of fear too?)
Respray and plates would do it - Lucille nods knowingly - and only cost a couple of Gs.. but wheres the nearest chop shop..? anyone got local auto-heist knowledge or close? The Cascades is roumoured to be a good place to lose vehicles, so there must be chop shops.. Lots of people will have registered the bus being here - if they are up to no good then the bus will have been 'clocked' good an proper.
As Fryer parts the med-tent doorscreen one of the nurses cheekily pipes up More visitors Mr Hunter! - humes an suit now blood - all in one afternoon.. shure are popliar!

((OOC: No problem with me Micro, we can go there too..the garage was just to have a larger view of the place, but i suppose behind Quick's cabin, we'll have more privacy and less curious eyes lookin'..so behind the cabin we go!...and that's what I"m missin' Wolf; don't speak the damn elven tongue, I need to learn it..always fun to insult them in a language they can understand...or just make them think you dunno what they're sayin'.. ))
"Yeah man's all right..I suppose some spirits can be a good thing..and since we'll have 3 Mages now, might as well do it big huh? So what's those elementals' all about? I met a spirit once, wasn't pleasant; I don't wanna get stuck with some rogue flamin' guy that starts burning everything and I can't shoot the bastard, y'know? I'm not wearing fire-resistant clothing here, and 'can't imagine how a knife can hurt something made out of fire..'course if you can create some APDS out of thin air, well, let's just say that'll turn the tables when the elemental goes nuts."
The duo walked back toward the garage, but stops at the local general store "I'll go buy us some firewood, they should have some in here." While browsing in the alleys, four-eyes spotted spools of wire Hey, I bet that'll make Thunder happy. He grabbed a spool and 2 bags of firewood. The lumber was mostly to start a fire than actually keeping it running, but he figured that Micro didn't need a giant hellfire..besides what kind of log cabin wouldn't have a half a cord of wood on the side? All those trids he saw, every damn log cabin had a cord of wood near it, it made sense to him.
Four-Eyes paid up and exited the store "Here Micro, hold those bag, 'just gonna jump by to drop somethin' for Thunder." He jogged to the garage and found Thunder busy over his drones "Hey Thunder, 'manages to found some wire here! 'hope that'll help 'ya..worst case, there's like 5 other spools down at that store just a few feet away...Well gotta go, Micro wants to call the spirits for somethin' or another I dunno.." Four-Eyes then went to his backpack, and put in a M-80 Oh man, 'can't wait to try this beauty... He jogged back to Micro and grabbed the wood bags " All right then, lead the way..Hmm..yeah maybe in the open here ain't that good..too much snoopers around..wanna go check behind my 'bud' Quick's cabin, maybe there's a campfire place 'round there?"
===================== ((Back at the table)) "Yeah, doin' shifts are good. 'Shouldn't put our faith in the good manners of people and think they're ain't a thief or some curious punk 'round here..and god knows what else..We got what, 4 awakens here, so maybe one of them with a norm with a gun, 6 hours shifts or somethin'...'should do the trick.."
After listening to the Russian elf's little intro, Four-Eyes got a bit concerned How'd she knew we were involved?..'Suppose she's been digging for awhile..or got a big machine to back her up.. "So..you're a hack from Moscow News or somethin'? Why you come bothering us with ghost tales like that? Go check on the locals here; everyone saw something weird in the woods at one time or another...some were even sober when it happened I bet.."

Angel watches Lucille. She unfortunately didn't know anyone here that could help them out. Seattle was her strong point, and this side trip to the Cascades was a necessary evil, a chance to lay low. She shakes her head quietly in reply.
Then she regards the other witch. Perhaps she should introduce herself to the woman, but then again, how did the woman feel about metas? She reaches up to smooth down her dark hair, making sure that her pointed ears were covered.

Micro sits back and waits to see what happens with this Russian Lady before he gives anymore thoughts on how to protect the bus to the group.
"Best to leave this to them I have no idea wht it is all about and aslong as I don't have to blast anyone with manabolt I don't realy care ether. Lets see about the bus I think with Thunders drones and 2 people watching over it at all times we should be ok and with a mage on duty at all times that will help to alert the others if anything does happen." Micro thinks to himself as he waits to see the out come of the talk with the Russian Lady.

Thunders drones would have a problem with fuel - could be done on a fly then swap over and refuel ... means Thunder would be jacked in for hours and someone would be refuelling over the course of the evening. They could be kept primed and ready though in the racks.
Micro and Four-Eyes build a fire behind the cabins - theres a crete bar-b-q stand that will do nicely, very forest safety concious... only a few rubberneckers - a couple of snapshots of Micro standing next to the barbie and Four-Eyes telling them to spin - you are surprised at the lack of interest! In fact the fire is more interesting than the summoning bit.. and you got yourself a sizzling bud!
Illiya replies The warden has been able to supply us vit specifics on the details that you gave regarding the attack on the isolated house.. Two Renraku employees murdered, three males taken for autopsy - I have the details from the military doctors who conducted the operation, coagulated blood akin to up to a month dead, and the anecdotal evidence of the creature that you fought, light coloured furred creature over six foot - do I need to continue.. We are cooperating with the authorities on this, as the awakened meta has a number of traits of vampirism - which if allowed to flourish can lead to the people disaster on the scale of Tecxocotapetal. We are here to determine whether or not all precautions were taken to ensure the spirit was destroyed and not merely disrupted. And if not, to ensure that they are.
We have statements from many of the deputised on the night - but have been able to contact you only just now upon your return.
Can you tell us what you used to kill the creature and how it reacted to your methods..
I believe that wolves were inwolved as well ...
Hearts sink - vapires, she's gotta be kidding...
Fryer begins to question the nurse, and not about his headache...

"Excuse me Miss . But you said two people in suits ? " Fryers mind starts spinning ."And would you mind giving me a description of these individuals please ? I may be of some help for Mr. Hunter."
Frag frag and double frag ! Just what I need .
"I have a call into a transport company to get Mr. Hunter back to the city for medical attention . I was hoping this could be the company Representatives "
Frag Four-eyes is going to start hating me now . After his big speech and all. Frag

Syure hun.. two big humes in soots an shades - the corp stylee... you probably seen em around the place - not many in corp retro outfits! Come to think of it they diddnt know him as Hunter -just 'the guy off the bus' I shall keep them away from his crib from now on, hmmmph.
Could be reps - but didna say anything bout transport... 'sall they said.. now you hun, you mind yourself at the jumpup tonite - though you got nice muscle, lotsa boys want to let off steam.. mind yourself, an come back soon to visit..
Illiya pulls out a silvered ball and puts it on the table clicking the fuzzbox after a brief check with yourselves if you mind or not.. clicks on the white noise generator. It fuzzes out a very low mix of radio and jazz that seeps into your ears making it slightly difficult to hear - but interferes with the incoming buzz of the festival - reasonable tradeoff! She borrows Fryer's vacated seat.
Were monitoring the newsbulletins for outbreaks in accessible areas - so the plague does not spread. The newscasts of the wolf hunt then the murders along with roumours was enough to bring a small team to investigate.. The plague carriers - call them what you will - wampyre undead Vendigo all have a similar story, infect a few move on - murder infect then move - once in a while they decide to stay and rule their festering domain and thousands fall under their sway.
Some cities in the south Americas have been emptied, the blood fever seems to have a greater hold there - and eastern europe and to a lesser extent china and japan all associated with earlier mythology - now a reality The infected will all die and the plage will spread to yet more. Some people have taken an interest in curing this disease, I and my comrades are such.
What do you believe would be fair recompense for your full story? For the exclusive in-depth interwiw? The light is only beginning to dim, we have lots of time... Once we have the details we can move onto the next step of eradication.
My day-job is a freelance journaist - you may have read my column in the Fortnean Times.... No?, ah well.. dip in and but a subscription to this worthy publication. The Warden was interested in our story, and we were able to call in a few favours with the millitary in return for a discreet storyline.
But back to business.. you have fought against the creature and the unfortunates under it's sway...
What is an interview worth? was it going to be breakfast news in town - or muscled out by the page 3 girl? What was it worth to them, whoever they were? Tricky stuff negotiating.. Illiya's trip out to the Cascades will have cost a few grand, plus any flights from wherever, pull a number from the sky and run with it..? tell her to spin on it?
who is volunteering for the first watch - still got to sort that out, and how to get the contract off the bus - but Illiya is needing sorting out as she is here now...
Texocotapetal - Aztlan troops liberated the 'silent city' and left quickly two days later. not much else is known. By you.

"Yeah, hum...before we became all friendly like, where's the rest of your crack team of vampire-fighting journalists/scientists at? Not to mention money up-front would be greatly appreciated..just in case you poof away in a cloudy of magic smoke after all's been said, mkay?...How 'bout a million Nuyen? I always wondered how that'll sit in my pocket.." Four-Eyes was joking about the price, but he must admit that talking about something that didn't officially happened, he kinda felt at odd about that.

Quick had entered to talk to Four-eyes but decided just to sit back an listen to the events unfold between everyone.
After hearing about vampires it became evident this was not gonna be a vacation as he had hoped.
