Micro remains standing after giving the info he remembers to the group if there is anything else he remembers he fills them in before he leaves. "Oh I think I will go find Thunder and give him my idea about the drones." Micro says this as he starts to walk back to the bus. "If you guys need any more info I will try at the magic tent after talking with Thunder"
Micro approaches Thunder "He there I got an idea to help with security on the bus I was thinking that you can place your Doberman or Steel Lynx drone inside the bus so no one can steel the cargo. Give the drone some way of knowing who are aloud to be on the bus, and a who is aloud to drive the bus so none of our new members drive away with the bus the cargo and your drone." Micro does his best to tell Thunder this as quietly as possible as not to let anyone know his plan.
"Also Thunder well I was in your RV on the drive up here from the ambush I say you have to places to sleep in there is it alright if I crash in there. Oh we should have your sensors of your RV watching the Bus or atleast communicating with the Drone inside it that way we get a good warning if anything happens."
(OOC Oh I fregot we were to try and keep the thing breif sorry)

*he was looking for Four Eyes to see what the group was doing. Going to put the doberman in the bus. But needed to find out some things with Four eyes first. Looks over at the beer thinking about having some. but he dosn't want to dull his senses with it. A duel brain is bad when rigging.*
"i was thinking of that already." *looking over at his rv thinking* "My doberman should be good enough to do that. I did some repairs on it." rubs his beard." Well i guess you can sleep in it. But you will have to move the drone parts over to the bench. Which means not alot of people will be staying in my RV. Which has its own security systeam. I have to link the drone in and give it a password for the drivers and passengers. One of the things i had wanted to talk to Four Eyes about. I think its best to talk in my rv. Since its fully sealed when i want it to be. I kinda heard someabouth about gold if we need. Could split the shipments in 3 or something."
*yes hes still rubbing his chin in thought*"Three vehicles would be better. But we still have that motorcycle I think unless we sold it." *he starts to walk to meet Four Eyes. Has been looking for him for awhile* Will have to talke to you more later Micro. Need to find Four eyes.

"All right, I suppose we can put 2 on guards, an awaken, a sleepy-head..with the droning support that'll work well..anybody got commlinks or walkie-talkies?..Aw hell what am I saying, we can 'prolly buy some 'round here.."
As Quick came back with booze and drinks, Four-Eyes lid another smoke "Ok folks, gather 'round, 'got a story to tell'ya...Anyways, 'week ago, Hunter, Fryer, John, Quick you know which John I'm talking about, with boomsticks up his sleeves, and me. 'Was night we were sleepin' then some earthquake just came outta nowhere BROOOOM. Fraggin' earth shook under our feet. Fryer went runnin' for some reason, so me and the rest went after him..turns out he saw 3 Orks carrin' another. So we tailed them, but then some GIANT wolf, I swear he was as big as a fraggin' pony man, with a growl who just get in 'ya and rip you form the inside. 'course we all opened fire, but the wolf wasn't even hit..and not like we missed too, I know I hit it, but..I dunno some crazy forest magic drek or soemthin'..anywas, we battled it out with the trio, one took a blast of 00 buckshots and got back up! Hell they all got shot and got back up. So John and Fry-man finished them up close."
Four-Eyes took a drag off his cigarette, seemingly disturbed by something "So one of the Orks, someguy named Burts, had a shack near-by, some people said he was ok a week ago too. So we all went to the shack, with some Orks lookin' for somethin' to do. so we drove there, met up with the beast inside the shack. I was tryin' to flank it from the outside, then it..screamed, some crazy scream that you inside, made me shook in my boots, scared the livin' drek outta the Orks..ol' Hunter was paralyzed by th'fear..must be magic..anyways, some wolves just came out storming outta woods, directly toward me..just them both before they made 50 yards." He smiled a little, blowing smoke out of his nose. " 'Course I got busy with something else, so 1 or 2 got in..turns out they attacked the wendigo..But John or Fryer got them along the way. lAnyways, finally got inside the shack, only to see that it was all over..They had to finish it close too, 'suppose only blades and spurs and such only work on them..Fryer was pretty beat-up, John was covered in blood..he even went with his fangs th'crazy motherfragger..'anyways, we cleared the shack and the surroundings, the Rangers came in the morning, took the bodies..the freak's body was startin' to burn under the sun as it was put in a bodybag..surprised th'Elf didn't got info on that..bah crazy bitch anyways.."

The whole time F-E tells his story, Peaches stares hard at him, arms folded over his chest. When he finally stops his long-winded, rambling spiel, the ork finally speaks. "What da hell does dis have to do wid' getting da fraggin' bus out of here?"
(OOC: Sorry I haven't posted in a few days. The wife and I bought us a house and were doing some painting and other renovations before we move in. My schedule is slam full, but I'll still try to check the boards daily.)

Well it is part of what the elf asked about, it puts us all straight on one of the reasons why this place is so busy, doesnt help with the gold or the bus, but fills in a few gaps -
Course, now everyone has a better idea of the murders story - anything that doesnt add up you can ask Fryer and Four-Eyes about... Hunter is in medcare and John went walkabout.. though putting a bite on a vampire sounds a bit dangerous.. might catch something.
The bus can carry up to 32 people - if all of the seats were there, half have been removed to make a little more legroom and to store transportables in the back, so 400 kilos of anything is only about six squaddies.. the total load would be about 14 tonne 14ooo kilos (a 14ton truck)
Dragons eh.. now that is rare..with a +6 (TN 10 ) you may have come across stories/tales of dragons and how they dealt with various nightwalkers.. some of the oldest wampyre date back to egyptian times.... thats when they are roumoured to have perfected their brand of immortality.. surely there have been encounters between the races..
Put yourself in the position of someone who has this foto on his fone - you got the word there is a mill on the bus and it is in the Cascades - how dyou track it, us down? What would it take to get you uninterested ? Hide or change the bus - theres a lot of attention drawn to it, so that would be hard, but should remove the less well informed.. we need a chop shop. Meg suggests remove the gold, but how to tell the crowd? some options are coming forward for the bus,
Thunder is seeing to it to get a doberman attack hound on board for security, it will do good, but nuthin beats honest flesh and blood.. and as for thinking about kip, it is just after tea-time. ANyone who was shot has an excuse, but for the rest of you, the night is young, not too much shine if you dont mind!
By the way, anyone surf the trix?

(OOC micro hasn't surfed yet too much happening but he may look for the sports channel to get the news on bike racing)
Micro first turns on his astral perception to make sure no mages are around on astral space to hear what he is about to say.
"Well guys if you want to move the stuff I could try and turn it invisible so we don't draw any eyes but it may still look weird us lifting nothing, so if we do decide to change the vehicles we want to park them really close to the bus and try and find a place out of site or a time where there are not as many people on the streets. Oh we could also make a move of the real stuff invisibly and do a dummy move of empty boxes for a decoy." Micro says to the group after hearing all the options the group has come up with. Then waits for input from the group on there thoughts
(OOC I'm not sure of the Object rating for the stuff but I'm thinking low because it is Raw material and not refined PG 182 Main book)

Okay, I'll give it a shot.
[dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] Rerolling the 6 : [dice=6] Ah well, it was a longshot.
Angel listens to Four-Eyes story. She'd never heard of such a thing. Obviously, she had a lot to learn about paranormal creatures. Perhaps she should spend more time hitting the trids and softs she could scrounge up about them.
"Having a guard for the bus is a good idea." She looks then to the one who had offered to make the bus invisible. If he could do that, he was a much more powerful mage than she was. "But the sooner we get out of here the better." [rand=02619811386220258063721744063831031666480418672268919507621236096]

(OOC Not the bus the cargo it is raw material so it has a low Object rating the bus has a huge Object rating since it is refined and has alot of complex stuff. Still my invisablity will be better then what you have Angle since mine works on camras too yours just the eyes of everyone watching. <I posted this so Wolf know what I ment >. Atleast you have stun so you don't have to kill everyone you fight that would of came in handy at the mines I had to sneak up and hit the guy with a stun glove given to me by Four Eyes)

Ah - some nice ideas coming out - Lucille is on the fone again - giving directions - could be more people on the way.. and she is talking about tyres and wheel specifics.. One of the reasons you cant just high-tail it out of here is the pneumatic tyres were shredded by the grenades, and the solids were damaged as well - skin of the teeth just to get here! 60 000 would buy a new bus though....
the discussion turns to invisibility - good for hiding - but not on the road, things dont bother to get out of the middle of the road for you ! You could have a frontrunner, with the bus out of sight behind it... (TN 8 complex materials TN 10 is for highly complex..)
Branwen hasnt any info on dragons and vampires - in fact it seems form you all that you are unbelieving as the rest of the population when it comes to vampires, but you are willing to believe a bus is carrying a million in bullion, tres etrange! Hard currency myth is more believable than real myth !
Any awakened would ave been told tales of creatures and beasties, Branwen obviously liked the stories about Dragons, Micro's formal training covered a bestiary (optional module yr 2.. easy option) Meg has general theory and can make a link between spirit and host...
Lucille says, while sipping a shine and orangeade..
The bus needs wheels - they should be here .. soon, probly not soon enough - theyll keep me informed. Meantime whatve we got.. Hide the bus? need a sprayshop, or someone casting spells all day. Good option - until I hit Seattle and reappear Hole up for a few days until it all dies down? could be a good option, till the wheels arrive were doing that anyway, Thunder's got the doggies in the bus.. we got a password - but do not say nice doggie, the attack key! and we can work 2-man shifts Move the cargo leave the bus empty.. could do, is there enough room for the cargo and people in the vehicles we got? problem is, anyone determined enough would have already made a link between your vans and this group and the bus gold, but it is a possibility!
I just cant make up my mind what would be best... what do you lot think? or are there alternatives?
I am passing the buck to you guys to decide what to do with the bus/cargo - Lucille seems distracted since the ambush and three people nearly getting killed because of a roumour.
Four-Eyes has told you about the wendigo, Fryer was there as well and may have a different slant, tho he was being chatted up by the nurses... and may be a while. So Illiya the elf may have to wait for his part of the full story.
Hey Mister - You been here before? - D'yuh know where the falls actcherally are?
A tourist saunters up to Thunder as you tinker with the drone bits. The doggies ar programmed and on the bus, you got some rotor arms to sort out - but as the light is starting to fade, it is also time to call it a day... Now as Thunder doesnt know exactly where the falls are, when he says 'Sorry folks - just got in myself..' he means it and aint lying... so it clocks as true.
Scuse me Mister - you were here last week - got a slant on the murder mystery? Fryer is approached by a geek with a trid as he leaves the medtent . the question is abrupt - the sort of fast talking that could get a fella to spill the beans if he wasnt prepared .. like leaving a tentfull of nurses and a pal in intensive care
[dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6][dice=6] [rand=7136608128253663578382349353943535847431963332627299166492750875]

hmmm Fryer has a resist/fast think to roll please... you would start off with 'no I wasnt - you got me mixed up with some other...' 'No Mister we got you on film back at the Jeep - just want an interview on the murders - you were at the scene - is it true they were being tortured by ghoules?'
you can shake this guy off with a Negotiate/fast talk or an int roll at +2 (TN6)
if not, he merrily patters.. 'Look bud we can black you out - wear a null-face - our boss wants some crapnews gossip theres a thou in it for you right now just for a couple of minutes, and I wont bother you again.. ...now that sounds fair...you think. Just down the way and heres the tridtent Mister.. two minutes, you could do with the money - couldnt you?
guiding you along, maintaining your interest, twenty paces, just a step or two more...

*he looks at the guy seems alot of people like coming around when hes working on his stuff. Mental note make a point of working on everything in my rv. Which he is doing with his rotor drones and his steel lynx. Doesn't want people knowing about he. Puts the stuff back in not going to take it out again. Doesn't want interruptions.*
Hey Four Eyes. I want to talk to you in private. About some ideas i have. But i guess some of them have been told you like the shift thing. *he says quietly right beside him. *

Hmm..yeah if we move the gold, that might get spotted..maybe a decoy..well all those firecrackers are gonna be used for somethin' fun right? And if we do 2 man shifts, dividing the skills is what's gonna prime here..mage and other sounds good for now....Dammit hell, that stupid book don't tell me drek 'bout wendigos..gonna search..gotta find Fryer, 'bet he's still got that satellite uplink to get on the Matrix..'could give us some info..just gotta figure out what's real and what's bull, not to mention get his side of the story too..Fraggin' Elf makin' me work double-time here..
"I suppose we can move the rocks around..but with everybody around, we need something to attract the attention elsewhere..anyone got a decoy idea?"
While in thoughts, Thunder came behind him and whispered something. "Hey guys, gotta go check somethin' with Thunder here, I"ll be right back."
He followed the dwarf back to the RV, where they got inside. He couldn't hear outside, now that was a good van. "So what did you wanted to talk to me about?"

*he shuts the door and arms the lock* I don't want anyone to hear. But i want to give 2 sets of codes out. Might be a good idea. one for the people who just joined and one to the others. Off coarse i don't need a code because of other reasons with the drone. As well i think we should both go talk to the mechanic. because of this"
*he punches up the feed of his camers catching him taking something from a suit* I want to know what it is. And why he got it. As well we need to move that bus out of site so i remode it. And well This baby here can hide alot of things. One being is i can change the plates and color of it if needed. *wonders what your thoughts on the matter will be*

"Yeah, just make sure that both sets unarmed the drone, don't wanna have someone gettin' cut to pieces while he was gettin' a towel or somethin'.." After showing the video, four-eyes became a bit more..cautious. "Why the frag they want to ask the mechanic 'bout us?....Hell and it seems it was not too long ago too..somethin's not all right..I gotta go find Fryer, get his story and go meet that elven bitch."
"Say do you got an idea on who to pair up with who for the shifts? I thought of a Mage and someone without magical powers..as to balance things."
