I'll sip my gin, enjoy the jazz, and flirt with women to abuse my "hero of the hour" status.

You soak up your 'hero of the hour' status, with everyone deticateing songs to you, buying you drinks, and soon, although you aren't sure how soon, you are piss drunk, and haveing a great time.

(OOC)
I'll drive around and try to lose them.  If they're still on my tail I'll hit the nitros.
(/OOC)

Even as you pull out and pour on the gas the van keeps right with you, hitting your own personal 'go-baby-go' button and turning on the giggle-juce gives you a slow walk away, but with a slight loss to mobility the van is still following you. <Drive Test> <3 sucesses> You can hear (barely) over the revving of the enginge, and the squealing of the tires a siren in the distance.

(OOC)
Lose 'em!  Allocate combat combat pool for driving (if I'm able, I don't remember if you can).
(/OOC)

Okay, time to pull some dangerous and crazy (fast and furious style) manuveres to get some more room. (sory, no combat pool for driveing, only get controll pool, and you only get that if you have a VCR, Enhansipalon thingie (task pool), or an Edge for vehicle empathy. (although i did once let a decker use his math co-processer at half power and increased target numbers to assist... *shrug* but it was only once, and he was really down on his luck) anyways, let's see if thoes bastards can do 160KMPH. <Drive Test Aceleration> Use NOS (3 Dice) (use Combat pool at 1/3 Power) +50% SpeedCurrently the tac is pegged at 8K RPM, and your heads up display tells you that you are going 168 KMPH. the Van isn't keeping up. Your car can't take much more of this before it starts to show some extra signs of wear and tear though. <Stress Points = 2> out of the corner of your eye you notice that you passed a loanstar patrole car. it's going to take him a long time to catch up at this speed, but he defenitly noticed you, and lit up his light bar.

(OOC)
Can't maintain top speed without the thing blowing up on me.  I'll take some turns and stuff, since I probably have a better accelleration rating.  I'll take a Hide action.
(/OOC)

<Drive Test> okay, you use your speed to get some space, and then pull a couple of turns at random intervals to gain some room, when you think the coast is clear you pull into an available surburbian zone, and pull into an empty driveway, kill the enginge, and turn off the headlights while ducking into the passanger seat. the only sound is the beating of your heart, and the tickeling sound made from a really hot enginge. it wasn't untill right now that you realised that you really have to pee.

(ooc) any other exits

there mignt be an employee emergency exit inside the storage closet, but you can't see it from the entrance. your best guess is that the only exit is the one with all the cops standing in it.

*using the door way for cover casts thunderclap at the gang that are trying to riob the place pumping half My dice in for secuss saving the rest for resisting drain*

Okay, your nice loud bang sends a cuncussive blast through the store, throwing soy chips, customers, loanstar, and hoolums everywhere. Most everyone is knocked off their feet, and everyone stops shooting. <resist drain><Light Mental Wound>

(if it looks safe will ask a hearth spirt to unlock the med supply room and get the supplys i was sent for )

The medical suply room is already opened by the Runners, in fact, one of them was useing the doorway there as cover. the Runner inside the room is still there, but he's knocked down right now. (dosn't mean he can't get back up though) people are groaning and starting to get up. Oh, and your Hearth spirit is getting weaker and weaker because it's domain is being destroyed.

I'll see if I can crash in the back room and sleep this off... or maybe see if some young and nubile lady will let me sleep it off at her place.

Whatever happens, I'm going to try to hang onto my credstick. I don't want to lose that. Pants = okay, credstick = no.

;D

<charisma test> The hero status works well for you, you wake up in the back of the club next morning, no pants, but your credstick gripped tightly in your hand. there is a trashy red bra there, but you don't know where your pants are.

I won't worry about that. I'll sling the trashy red bra over my shoulder and go up to the front without pants.

"Hey, Freddy. Can you give me a lift back to my place? It appears that I lost some clothing over the course of the night

He agrees and takes you home. (and gives you a pillow to hold in your lap for the trip over there.)

I'll go into my apartment, take a shower, and then go to sleep.

(Try and sleep off the hangover)

Okay, You awaken several hours later, wishing you were dead. you feel dehydrated like you just walked accrost the dryest desert on the planet, while walking on your tounge. oh, and you ache like you just got chopped up, put back together, and then toped it off with a night of bindge drinking. <Three boxes stun damage> you are at moderate mental wounds.

(OOC)
I lay low and hold it, but if I can't hold it I'll pee in a big gulp cup or empty water bottle or something.  I'll wait about 20 minutes then I'll poke my head up to look around a bit.  Good thing I have tinted windows.
(/OOC)

Okay, you almost drip pee on your hands as you try to get it into the top of a water bottle. <quickness test> but you make it okay. you are glad that you had the one leater to drink earlyer instead of the wussy little 6 oz drink, kuz you almost fill it up before you are done. ... now if you could only find the lid... it takes a small eternity for the 20 minutes to go by. you find yourself holding your breath every time something flys over or drives by. (although that's not a bad idea anyways, because your car interior dosn't smell too good, you'll have to go get some little christmas tree air fresheners later to get rid of the salty urin aroma you are cultivateing now) when 20 minutes finally ticks by, you peek your head up. no cars on the street, but a house accrost the street two doors down on the left has it's lights on. you are pretty sure that they were off when you pulled up.

I'll drag myself across the floor, get something (probably water) to drink, and call for the telecom to pick up.

Do I have any of those pain pills from last night left over?

while you are looking for something to put water into the telcom comes on at an increadably high volume. it dosn't help that the voice on the line is the loudest person you know. and it dosn't help that there is troll thrash playing in the background, and it dosn't help that he's yelling to be heard over it. you can see his smile even without looking at the screen. and if you haven't guessed it yet, you are talking (getting yelled at?) by MFI, your Fixer. the only elf that can smile and shout at the same time. your head really hurts. "HEY HOW YA' DOING? YOU LOOK LIKE HELL! CAN YOU HEAR ME? DO I NEED TO SPEAK UP? I SAID HOW ARE YOU? [size=10]CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?[/size] OH, HEY, THAT WAS LOUD. ANYWAYS, I GOT A JOB FOR YOU. A JOB LEADING TO ANOTHER JOB. A JOB THAT WILL GET YOU ENOUGH MONEY TO BUY SOME PANTS. NICE BRA BY THE WAY. IT INVOLVES TRACKING DOWN A NON-COMBATANT CORP WAGESLAVE, AND CONVINCEING HIM TO HELP US. YOU IN? I'LL GIVE YOU 10K IF YOU CAN DO IT, AND THE FOLLOWING RUN IS LOOKING INTO THE SIX FIGURES. WHAT DO YOU SAY? WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR YOU! ARE YOU OKAY? WHY ARE YOU HOLDING YOUR HEAD LIKE THAT? YOU'D HEAR BETTER IF YOU TOOK YOUR HANDS OFF OF YOUR EARS! ARE YOU CRYING?[/b]

[ok grab the meds i need  and look for the nearest exit away from lonestar

Okay useing your distraction to the best of it's ability you run to the pharmacy, jump over the runner that's prone there, and are confronted with a wall of little jars that you have no idea what most of them are. <int. check> Looking arround you find what you think are anti-biotics, name brand something or other in a huge 8,000 qty pill case, and you see some other stuff that looks like it might contain alo, but you don't reconise the name. you are still missing a few things on the list. behind you (through the doorway to the pharmacy, the runner is getting to his knees, and you can hear the loanstar outside shouting something to each other. you can't quite make it out (your ears are still ringing a little bit from the blast earlyer) but you are almost posative that it at least rhymes with 'geek the mage'

Are just the porch lights on or is the whole house lit up?  If the latter, can I see shadows in the windows?

time to get while the getting is good out the back)

Okay, grabbing the stuff that looks right to you, you hop over the crouching form of the shadowrunner as he's shakeing his head leapfrog style, pushing him back down to the ground once you pop back into the store proper, loanstar, once again getting their bareings, and never wanting to shy away from a fight desides that the best cource of action at this point is to contain and eliminate the possibly hostile force inside the store, and open up a nice cover pattern of gunfire. moving through the store will now be extreamly difficult. currently you have cover from the cleark's counter but between you and the storage room exit (that you hope is there, you never actually got arround to checking) is a nice turn and a half of open space filled with the ocasionall bullet.

(ok are they fireing around counter hight )

They are filling the air with bullets, and there are lots of them. i believe the term is 'cover fire'. The bullets are all over the place, if you aren't ducking for cover, you are probibly going to get hit.

I'll drag myself to wherever there is water, and then drink all of it.

*holding head*

"Yeah, I'm in, let me find some pants... and some asprin. Where do you want me to meet you?"

You find the sink faucet, and stick your head under the faucet and start drinking that, makeing a mess on the floor, and tasteing something nasty and metallic as you wrap your lips arround the airator.
"HAHAHA You alwies were a kidder! that's why i keep useing you! well, that, and the fact that you come cheap! but not as cheap as that red bra! HAHAHA I'm just kidding! Seriously though, you want some asprin? i just picked up a whole drugstore! oh wait,... that was from you... oh, and i already sold it. *shrug* how about this, the guy that i sold the drugs to runs a shop, go visit him, and he'll give you some asprin, and a name of someone to help us out on this one. we could probibly use a good healer, or well, at least someone who knows their way arround a medkit. am i talking too loud? does it seem like the volume is broken... is it too soft? i could turn it up? no? okay. anyways, get some support there, and then meet me here at Gravity-Plex-9000, they give you thease cool boots that let you walk on walls! i'll be at upside down table # 4. " With that a fax comes through giveing directions and an address of a street doc near redmons.

I'll hang up the telecom, drink a lot more water, go 'relieve' myself in the bathroom, then find some pants, go outside and drive my car to this street doc's place.

Oh, and I'll find some sunglasses. And maybe a hat that shades my eyes. And a coat.
