I'll totally mack with the model, and look for everyone later.

Yes. Yes you are. In fact, you get as far as the coffin motel parking lot before she even realises where you are 'wanering' over to...

SEE IF i CAN LOCATE THE SORCE

<Int Check> Hmm... you ponder on the reverberation for a bit... trying to pinpoint what could be causing it... when you notice the three 'silent' helocopters overhead hovering over the party in a rather ominious fashion... again, you seem to be the only person to notice it.

[mercy]

peek in to the astral plane at the helos

Each Helo has one astrally active person, except for one of the Helo's, that has an almost astrally active pilot as well as the normal astral active passanger. also, there's quite a bit of astral activitity down in the party... the DJ apears to be spinning more than just tunes, and a number of the racers are astrally active as well. (there's also one particular car that has an astrally active gastank for some reason you can't understand...)

[Ruski]

Chaingun fire screams from multiple points above the party. it seems that five or six helocopters are opening fire with about two chainguns each. tracer rounds fly through the night lighting up the area with a lightning storm of rebounding sparks and dark puffs of blood obscuring the moonlight.  the pounding music is replaced by the dull whine of a  static feedback loop feeding into the speakers and acompanied by a slowly increasing scream of terror.

heads to the coffin motel to get out of the open

Most people are rushing out into the street, and down alleyways. an unlucky few seem to be determined to 'outrun' them with their cars, and are the first to be shot down by multiple streams of bullets.

I'm assuming those of us "otherwise entangled" in the coffin motel are awakened/disturbed by the sound of chainfire?

That is a correct assumption. Aparently imminant death isn't the aprodisiac that the race-boys and girls were claiming it was to their associated partners. Oh, and <Roll Init.>

[Ingo Monk]

Takashi wakes up to the drone of chaingun fire.  "AWW FRAG!"  He quickly gathers his things and bolts out of there dispersing with the crowd mumbling something along the lines of 'now what?!?'

You get out of the motel, along with several other people who are kicking out the coffins and bailing as fast as they can pull their pants on... being unarmed (and unclothed) dosn't seem to help much for pitty's sake, the chaingun fire originating overhead cuts through people half dressed just as easily as thoes pulling out zip guns and firing into the air...

[kv]

INIT: 8

With all the yelling and screaming the bigest guy you can see dosn't seem to notice you or your sugestion. the second bigest guy you can see gets cut inhalf by chaingun fire... you think perhaps it's armor pearcing rounds...

[kv]

I'll look around. Is there any sort of escape route that isn't being shredded with lead? Are they shooting into the coffin motel, or just the crowd of people?

In any case, I'll start looking arond for a car to steal- something with armor, doesn't need to be particularly fast.

They are shooting at anything that moves. Cars doubly so.

[kv]

I'll stay under the cover of the coffin motel for now... but I'm going to look around for a sewer entrance of some kind. I'm probably going to need an escape plan very soon.

You see a sewer manhole cover nearby, but it looks heavy.

[Ingo Monk]

I dive into some cover, whatever I can find.  Then I try to find a pattern in their shooting or who the heck they are.

Init: 9
Okay, their chaingun fire is tearing up prettymuch everyone, although they seem to be concentrating fire on thoes people trying to leave, fastest getting shot down first. (so, cars are a first target, runners second... etc etc etc) you are guessing that they aren't milatary, seeing as how they are slaughtering unarmed... well, mostly unarmed people, they aren't loanstar, kuz they are slient choppers... they are probibly corperate, from one of the big-10...

you get some cover by a nearby trashcan. it probibly won't stop a bullet, but perhaps it'll slow it down some. you are one floor up (on the second of two stories) it's open-air outside of the 'rooms' though, without even a rain gutter for cover (cuts down on the homeless sleeping 'near' the motel rooms instead of inside them where they have to pay) judging by the viscus red fluid leaking out of several still closed doors, you are guessing that hiding inside the rooms isn't an option.

[mercy]

I unleash a thunderclap at the nearest copter then scramble down into the nearest sewer

As soon as you go astral to cast your spell, you get hit with a mana-bolt. <8S> roll resistance. aparently the astrally active individuals in the choppers that you saw earlyer were delaying action to prevent magical attacks to their craft.

Well, one sucess is better than none. You get blasted off of your feet, and blood pours from your eyes, ears, mouth, and nose as a concussion blast knocks you onto your back. you are lucky that the helocopter is right above you, because if it was anywhere else, you wouldn't still have LOS for it... however, you are extreamly disorented (the helocopter seems to be spinning arround at an increadable rate) but unless you accidentily fell into the middle of a carosell, you doubt that the world is actually spinning that quickly. between the spinning, the red haze of blood pouring into your eyes, and the edges of blackness coming into all sides of your field of vision you are having a very difficult time of concentrating. (could be something to do with that +3 from a serious wound) but, it's still your turn, and you still (barley) have LOS to the helocopter, so you can still cast a spell if you are feeling lucky and / or self destructive...

[kv]

I'll shout at someone nearby who looks strong
"Hey, pull that manhole cover off and we can esacpe in the sewer!"

You have to physically grab someone to get them over there, and although the guy is bigger than you, he's not doing much to help the manhole cover move.

[kv]

I'll try and lift it on my own, then.

With the other guy still working the side, you attempt to get next to / accrost from / whatever works to help out... combined though... it's still not enough to move the cover.

[Ingo Monk]

Book it to the first floor, maybe the 2nd floor will fair as better cover than a trash can.


As you begin to run you notice an increasingly loud roar as a chaingun begins to home in on you... it get's closer and closer untill becoming destracted by an orc that pops out of a motel with a shotgun in hand, firing repeatidly at the helocopter... things do not go well for the Orc, who re-defines the old term 'making a mess of his room', but it does allow you to make it to the bottom floor.
