{i cast  armour on my self  all dice to resit drain  }

{ooc   how far is the soy store room from the counter)

Okay, you get a slight glow from your armor (that would be easyer to see if you were invisable) it's not a strong resistance, but you don't take any drain from it. (but if someone is looking at you in the astrial, you'll be nice and lit up.) anyways, you got about 30 yards of hell to the soy storage room.

(I wait for a let up in the fire than crawl asshole and elbows to the storeroom hugging the floor}

crawling as fast as i can hugging the floor I make my way to the soy closet hugging the floor as close as i can

Okay, with the cover fire you still have to resist some gunshots, but i'll give you a bonus for trying to stay as low as possible, and your invisability will help a little. <Resist Dammage><Use Entire combat pool><Dammage=Null>Okay, you get shot up a little bit, but mostly your wardrobe just gets a couple of holes in it. nothing connects solidly with meat. However, you do notice that it's not too tough to slide allong the floor, because it's covered with leaking soy-soda (all fifteen flavors) grease from the salty soy stuffer chips, grease from the leaking deep fat fryer (for the soy dogs) and something that's dripping out of the front of the microwave that you can't quite identify. Your dry-cleaner is going to hate you.

You get to the suply closet and duck inside. their is a roof access hatch with a lock on it, and some extra packages of the new popular nerps flavored soy chips, but no other exits.

(OOC)
I'll turn on the engine and roll outta here, no loud revving or anything...gotta make it seem casual.  I'll wait till I'm halfway into the street to turn my headlights on, cuz if I did that in the driveway the white garage door would probably light up all bright from it.
(/OOC)

You get half a brownie-point for thinking of the garage door. Your car sounds terrible as you start it up. it sounds like you have burned up the valves a little bit, and there's a suspicious looking spot on the driveway when you pull away. keeping the RPM's as close to 1K as possible you idle your way out of the neighborhood, and out onto normal streets as you turn on your headlights. it's almost midnight. the smell of your bottle of urin is stinking up the car, and your skin is covered with a cold sweat.

*I go out thru the hatch
staying low* make my way on to the roof  checking for escape routs

There is a lock on the hatch.

*with so much gun fire going of  I shoot the lock off with  my thunderbolt

and POP goes the lock. okay, you are up on the roof now. there are cops out front all over the place, and no good ways down. there is a neon sign teletype on the back of the neon sigh, so you could make it say rude things, but that's about it.

* ok what all can i see over the back side of the building

it's about twelve feet to the next rooftop, or eighteen feet to a dumpster filled whith who knows what. it's got a think layer of snow on top of it, so you can't really see the contents. there is a single loan-star officer looking arround with a flashlight. (but not up)

(OOC)
I'll call up Svan.  I need someplace to lay low for a while.  I've done enough work for him so hopefully he'll accomodate me.  Actually, scratch that cuz I don't want to use my phone.  I'll find a pay phone and use a certified credstick so I can't be tracked.
(/OOC)

Okay, you call up Svan at home, and he's not sleeping (aparently someone needed some custom mods done tomorow) but he is irritable. "Look Takashi, i'm up aghinst a wall here, and i know that you've had a hard day too, and you have put one of my kids through colledge with modifications to your car (and that's a work of art i don't mind calling my own) but i'm really buisy right now working for some customers that don't want to be... well... i can't do much right now. Hey! How about this? You help me help them, and we will be done, so i can help you! I need a hard-to-find supercharger for the H-8 Military Hummer. Now, the only shop that sells them is inside the UCAS and about three days out shipping UPS, however, i just installed one in a diffrent chummer's ride, and I'm sure he wouldn't mind getting me out of a pinch. If you could go get it for me right quick, i could have this job done in an hour, and then i can see about getting you out of trouble, how's that sound amigo? here is the address if you are interested.

"Hey Svan, I'd love to help but I'm really in a bind here.  Do you have another car I can borrow for this errand?  Mine's kinda...well..I pushed it a little too hard and I'm afraid any more pushing and I'll crack a piston.   I can drop it off at your place or your shop or whatever.  And if you wouldn't mind, don't mention my name to anybody....some people might be looking for me, so you see why I need a place to lay low.  Thanks for the help bud, I'll owe you big time after this.


(OOC)
I'll glance around every now and then.
How far is Svan's chummer's place?
(/OOC)

Traffic is extreamly light at this hour, but there are a couple of vehicles that drive by. none of them slow down though, and you do a good job of covering your face as they pass.
"Uhh... i got the chopper, can you ride a bike? it would be tough to carry a super-charger on it... I also have the Vette', It's running, but it has open headders. *shrug* that's all i have running right now." It's about twenty five miles to Svan's 'friend's' place. about fifteen to Svan's.

Kid:

You get out to your car, coat and hat pulled down low to keep out the cold and sunlight. (what little of it there is anyways)
as you pull out of your drive way and start driveing towards the street doc's location you notice that someone on what looks like a snowmobile is following you.

A snowmobile? I'll pretend like I'm not paying attention to them, and then purposefully walk across the street to the Street Doc. If they follow, I'll circle the block and keep them in my field of vision.

It dosn't seem to care that you are ignoreing it. soon the sound of a revving snowmobile enginge is joined by another, and then another. suddenly pulling out of an alleyway infront of you is a large orc, aparently with voice amplification. "KILLER SNOW GOONS! AN INFINTILE HAS SOILED OUR DOMAIN! ATTACK!!!" with that he starts swinging something that looks like snow chains mixed with barbed wire arround his head.

"As long as it's running and it's not my car it'll work.  I'll be over in a few.  Thanks again bud."

(OOC)
I'll head on over, but won't drive strait there.  I'll take some twists and turns and keep an eye on my rear view mirror to make sure no one is following me.  Once I'm comfortable I'll head over there.

Oh, and I toss the piss bottle in the trash.
(/OOC)

Okay, you make it over there without too much trouble. there is a constant trickle of steam comeing from under your hood somewhere when you arive. Svan is in the back tinkering on what apears to be a stock Milatary Hummer with a very bling-bling non-stock enginge. standing over him are several large and dark looking individuals that seem to keep to the shadows, their hands close to their waste-bands, and eyes close to you.
Svan Points to the key-rack on the wall and says "Take your Pick... (and please hurry)"

Takashi waves to everyone "Hey guys." and heads over to the key rack and grabs the keys for the 'vette.  He makes sure not to look at these shadowey guys, as they probably don't appreciate an extra person involved in this deal.  "I'll be back ASAP."  He gets into the 'vette and drives to get the supercharger, making sure to obey all traffic laws.

The corvette is a nice primer grey color, and it's really hard to keep the tires on the road with the ice everywhere. it's got awsome acceleration, but can't turn worth a dam unless you are going 2 KMPH and babbying the clutch. the open headders do sound cool though. you bet his neighbors hate him. driveing to the address on the paper, you come to a gated community. there is a place for a slashcard, or you can enter in a pin code. you see a rent-a-cop ride by on a bicicle looking tired, he looks at you, but it could just be the noise from your car drawing his attention.

"Frag this!"

I'll draw my gun, and run for the entrance of the Street Doc's Place.

You hear the gunning of several enginges as you start running (a neat trick in snow) and as you pull your gun out you can hear them yelling to each other and egging themselves into a frenzy. they are going to reach you before you reach the door. and it looks like a flimsy door. <New Init.><init. Pass 11> Your turn. You are 20 yards away from the door, and the closest guy to you (the big orc) is three feet behind you. and on a snowmobile.

(ok  I take out My inflatlbe tent and my survial  and cut the tent in to thick srips aproxammly three fingers in width and tie the strips together making a rope look for a spot to secure it to climb down the back and watch the star and see if he exits the ally)

The Officer in the back is looking arround, checking for 'escapeing' people from the building. (aparently he expects someone to blow a hole through the wall or something.) he's checking out the small piles of garbage on the ground and watching his back quite frequently. while watching him you slice the hell out of your inflatable tent, carefull not to hit the CO2 cartridge, and tie the ends together. you wish you paid more attention in your boyscouts classes when it comes to the knots, but you think it'll probibly hold. there is a problem though. the only good anchor point is on the front of the building on the neon sign, and your home-made rope won't get from the front to the back and to the ground. (your tent wasn't that big) and you don't really want to go down the front and land in the middle of all the star there.


(will the rope reach from the roof hatch  to the back side of the roof with some left over )

it's kind of streachey... it might work. you'd guess that it would only make it half way down, but with some extra weight the material will probibly streach out a bit, and get you really close to the ground. *shrug* that's your best guess anyways.

(OOC)
Gated community huh?  I'll go find a payphone and call up Svan again and see what's up.  Did he forget to mention to his friend that I was coming?
(/OOC)

"Uh... yea.... well... he's sort of out of town at the moment... but he is a chummer of mine... and i'm sure he wouldn't mind... i already have the replacement on order... and it'll be here before he gets back... (whispering) and i really really really need that now. i think there is a back entrance to his place allong the east side... a gate where the door stays open, but it's at a wierd angle to traffic or something... or perhaps it's just a connecting park for people to walk through... but you don't need a code to get through. i'm sure you could get in through threre.

ok I tie it to the lock hasp on the hatch  then cast stunbolt all diec in sucesses at the cop throw rope over and snniy down

Okay, you throw all your dice into makeing the star count sheep. <Deadly +1 Stunn> and you think you see a little bit of blood trickle out of his ears as he collapses. <Resist Drain><Light mental wound> your head spinns for a second after casting the spell. before the officer even has time to finnish makeing a dent in the snow you throw your makeshift rope over the edge, haveing secured the other end to the handle of the roof access previously. the rope reaches a little better than half way down, leaveing a short 10' drop to the icey ground. as you test the knot by putting some weight on it, the makeshift rope streaches a little bit because of the polimer content of the tent used to create it. swinging out over the side of the building and putting more weight on it, the bottom of the rope gets a full 1' closer to the ground just from the slack streached out of your rope. as you start to climb down you get just far enough below the ledge to where you can't see the roof when you feel the rope begin to streach even more under your weight, and the weight of all the equipment you are carrying. you check the closest knot to you for a full half-second before you realise that the extra streacheyness of the rope is going to do bad things to you knots. that's the last thing that you think of before your fear turns into a sort of weightless happyness. it's oddly comical to see the rope infront of you slingshot it's way into the heavens as the cold air rushes past your ears and the ground decides to greet you. <Use all combat pool><Moderate Physical Wound> You feel sore in a large number of ways as you lay on the ground looking at the snow falling slowly toward your face. your back is very cold, your butt hurts, your head hurts, and right about now you are wondering if you picked up any pain pills in that little snatch n' grab you pulled a few minutes ago.

(occ that wa a slight miss caculation :ic:
I get up carefully make my wa to far end  of the back of the building  and look carefuly around the edge if the coasst is clear)

You limp over to the edge of the next alleyway, holding your sore butt with one hand, and carrying your armload of drugs in the other. there is an officer in this alleyway, but he's not looking your dirrection. from the mouth of that alley you can see the lights from the midnight sun lamps mounted on the star's vehicles illuminateing the street. the back alley runs further down, behind the next row of buildings. there is nothing there but some dumsters, a fire escape that's been pryed open to let vandils tag stuff near the roof, and some rats to keep you from going that dirrection.

(ok  i put the drugs in my rucksack  and goes to the oppsite side and look carefully)

Okay, you jam down the alleyway and duck out into the main street a couple of buildings down. you can still see the commotion infront of the shack, but no one is screaming after you. it apears you have gotten off scott free! congradulations!

when get back to friends place I use the heal spel to treat My wounds

(ok hed back to My street doc friend

<Heal: target three boxes><use half spell pool> <Sucess!> <Resist Drain><Use half spell pool><Light Mental Wound>You are now at two boxes of mental dammage. heading back to your streetdoc you notice a large moveing van infront of his shop. some large ghetto looking orcs are going back and forth carrying boxes of medical equipment that look to have been hastely packed.

I'll dive out of the way first, and then turn and try and blow the fragger off the snowmobile.

Hopefully they won't run over me as I'm lying in the snow killing them.

you fire one of your few remaining shots at the snow goon. <modified for movement><Deadly Wound> Your shot blows through the front windshield of the snowmobile, hitting the driver square in the chest, and popping out his back with a red mushroom cloud. You are very glad that you have the AV ammo in there, but you are wondering right about now how many shots you have left. the snowmobile stalls as it's driver falls off the back in a twisted looking heap. the shouts and enginge noises from the other dirrection increase in tempo as their ringleader goes down. <new init. pass> <Turn 9> your turn. you are prone.
