"Point it at whatever Meg tells ya." He looked to the group. "With all the mold and bacteria, it's lit up like the fourth-o-July. If it weren't for the lights I'd be just fine down here." He pulls his small flash light out and shakes it a couple of times to create a charge, then pockets it again. "We should start slow, get you guys into the groove. Let's go for the two first, I can track the others down later."

(OOC Mist is an aspect mage meaning he can only use sorcery.)
I'm going to do my best to stay hidden if you see me pop back into view don't shot me. I will be here to give cover you may not see me though. Mist then does his best to conceal his self using his concealment power.

Bishop moved forward cautiously with the rest of the point-men, his Predator and pen torch raised before him as he gazed down his arm along the heavy barrel, made longer still by the attached silencer, and into the blackness. As before, he pointed the pen torch to the floor and used the refracted light to aid his low-light vision augmentation in making out any shapes that might have been in the tunnel.
"Agreed," He muttered subvocally "We should take out the two quietly before risking a noisier encounter with the group of four."
OOC - how wide is the tunnel again? I thought it was only 2 meters wide and therefore not wide enough for a 3-man point team.

<sv>"In that case, Mist you provide my half of the spell defense. That way I can give anything that pops up the slip... to the floor." Shade waits for mist to raise his defense before Shade lowers his.

Henri raises his silenced predator and sights onto the nearest ghoul over the top of Blackout's head, ready to abandon the shot if the creature's wandering placed Bishop between itself and him. He leaves the laser sight off for the time being, not wanting to give the game away until it was too late for the ghouls. Henri activated his comm unit. "Everybody ready?"

OOC - aren't you being a little premature? (story of your life ), we haven't even crept up on the damn things yet, have we?

OOC: I thought we were creeping and planning at the same time & I did keep the laser off so it wouldn't be seen. As for my being premature, it's a problem for 25% of men. The rest of us don't see it as a problem

Micro gets back to Megs place a bit dizzy he has been fasting for the last week without letting anyone know about it. Micro grabs a glass and pours himself some water. With the water done Micro gives Illiya a call. Yes whos calling It's Micro I've gone through week with the fasting that one of the fellow Mages I talked to at one of the group meetings we had. It seems to be working fine I think I've purified my body of what needed to purified out. Let me tell you stopping smoking was the hardest. That is great so do you have the time to start the next stage. Ya I think so and I've decided what technique for the list of them you gave me I want to know. I was hoping Centering, since it may help me deal with manipulating more mana in the future. Ok if you have the time I'll be here waiting. Ok I'll be right over. Micro hangs up the phone. Then gets his stuff together to head over.
Micro walks back to his bike that after a few kicks starts up. Dreking bike never seems to get going when I want it to anymore, and the clutch seems to stick when ever I stop at a light. Micro gives his bike a kick as he gets off to go see Illiya. Maybe a kick before I leave will get you to start the first time when I get back. Micro heads up to the door and rings the bell. The intercom BUzZs Ya it is Micro. Ok I'll be right there. Illiya greats Micro at the door then the two head off to work to increase Micro's power in the Arcane arts.
Inside the two sit in an hermetic cycle surrounded with burning herbs on 4 points on the circle, candles made of bees wax with runes carved into them are stationed midway between each set of burning herbs. Illiya pulls out a leather book and hands it to Micro. For the next few hours I want you to study this book it is one the group has written on Centering. Micro takes the book with a bow to Illiya, then begins his study. For the rest of the night Micro has his head in the books studying how Mana is flows and is manipulated by a skill. Micro gets drawn to the use of language and as he progress on wards in his study of the information presented to him he keeps flipping back on how to use language to aid in the manipulation of the mana energy that a Mage uses to create different effects.
At sunrise with Micro half asleep Illiya returns to see that Micro is hammering away at the book. Having finished the reading of the full book Micro is now Focused on the skill that he is going to use to aid in his control of Mana. With the bees wax candles and herbs all burnt away.Illiya asks what skill he decided on to aid him to center himself with magic.Language seems to be the one that is calling me, not so much the words but the letters used in the Latin Alphabet and the energy's I can use with each letter. Illiya nods at Micro and goes back to the magic groups bookshelf and pulls another book. Ok now that you have read the general information on Centering and found the path you are going to use to Center yourself here is another book to help you full fill the quest you have before you. Micro stands up stiff and dry mouthed and accepts the book that Illiya has presented him. Illiya walks over to the sink pours Micro a drink of water then hands him the glass. Keep with the fast a bit longer and take the book and study what is in it and you will be ready for the next grade on Initiation.
(OOC Micro learns Centering with Asceticism (Lossing 1 point of Strength and lowering his max for 6 to 5) Also learns The Centering Active skill at Rating 2)

(sorry about the dissapearance)
While he crept forward quietly with the others Blackout held his Ares Viper Slivergun out in front of him, aimed ahead at the ghouls. The smartlink reminded him that the gun was fully loaded and set to fire in semi-auto. His head didn't move as he subvocalised a response. "Ready." He kept it to that, too much chatter and they'd just end up talking over each other.
(I'm thinking that, since Blackout is shorter, he should go in the front line since someone can shoot over him, thoughts? should we be rolling init?)

Fade feels the rush starting. He's on a run....... a real run! He feels his awareness expanding and starts to view ever thing around him as a cause and effect. He checks his Walther again. Sneaks a peek at everyone else's guns and realizes that he should have a silencer. Maybe he can fin a 2 liter pop bottle to fire through, he saw that in an old flat view movie once.
Ready here. he say in a whisper.

Now that everyone has a good idea of where they are and how you are all moving - the tunnel is wide enough to have two of you with comfort and three with a bit of jostling.. Blackout realises that someone kneeling in the front would be used as a barricade by those behind - and could lead to problems if there is anything more than all of you merely blazing away..
You are all quiet the mages tending to step gingerly forward taking the care to choose where to plant your feet while the more physical minded use a shorter step shuffle and balance to reduce the crunching noise from the debris beneath your boots. There is a kinda quiet rustle given off by you all but nothing that would suddenly catch your attention - or rather someone else's.
Blackout first catches sight of the two - Bishop quickly brings up his sidearm to cover the one on the right waiting until there is confirmation that the one on the left is covered too...
