Eglons going to barrel towards the mutant, kicking the downed carrien for good measure on his way past

Edit: *Gonna either bodyslam him, or use the mutilator glove (which Eglon wears on his other hand[go ambidex])

AL][EN

Combat Round 2
===============

Eglon
Seeing as you not engaged in combat with anyone at the moment you can choose your next target, quickly looking around the combat scene you see that Roweeina pretty much has the carrien she's dealing with finished off (it looks like its about to cough up its spleen) Vigo has just engaged a carrien in combat as has calm and Tobias is squaring off against a machete wielding mutant. People just think stormers are a lump of muscle to throw at targets but you've been trained like all other operatives that went through meny about combat and target threats. Your pretty sure the mutant is the biggest threat at the moment as carriens can be dealt with one on one that mutant looks angry and tough, Clicking the switch on your mutilator glove as the electrical discharge of it powering on causes the glove to hum to life charging at the mutant you swing your arm and hit him in the dead center of the chest. There is a flash of light as the electrical discharge hits him but thats pale in comparison to the damage you just inflicted. The force of your hit causes you to lift the mutant clean off his feet and lands 3 feet away from you in a crumpled heap on the floor he totally out of action, like the other carrien this guy is in a world of hurt he's unconscious but alive.

Calm:
Using your feet to kick the carrien off you you roll back up into a kneeling position with your firearm held close you take aim at the wounded snarling carrien and *CLICK*, what the?? CLICK CLICK. a flash of confusing crosses your face until you realize your gun is jammed. Frackin cheap ass FEN products you think to yourself. What if i had HEAP rounds in the gun they'd have exploded and taken my hand off. While your pondering the uselessness of FEN Products and the immanent drop in consumer satisfaction levels the carrien seizes the opportunity to try and re-arrange your face by turning it inside out. It attempts to claw at your face but you easily dodge the attack.

Roweeina
The Carriens still pinned to the floor is screaming in a high pitched voice, a mixture of pain, hatred and fear, slowly drawing your sidearm and taking immense pleasure from all this, since this is your first kill in a long time that you've done without shooting up full of combat drugs first. Savoring the moment you and avoiding the swipes of the carrien you aim the pistol square at the carriens head and pull the trigger a single shot is all it took, the noise drowned out by the sounds of combat that have erupted all over the room. After the shot the carrien lies dead on the floor you allow yourself a little smirk and you wrench your claymore free of the corpse.

Tobias
You are too far out of range at the moment to get to calm or vigo but you would be able to make it to one of them in the next round. They are both in melee combat so shooting is a bad idea. You will have to choose which one you want to assist. As you are thinking this your eye catches on something. Its a door you didn't see that before. The door leads into the kitchen and in the kitchen seated at a table is the killer (with his knifes drawn) and qwertz. They seems to be talking possibly negotiating with the killer. however the thoughts of a brain waster negotiating actually fill you with dread. So now you have 3 choices. Head over towards qwertz, Help calm or Help vigo.

Vigo
You weren't able to throw Tobias pistol back to him in the previous round and this pee shooter really isnt for you. fed up with this carrien you drop the pistol and reach for you assault rifle clicking the safey off as you do. your not sure was the weapon set to fully automatic or burst mode but at this point you'll just have to squeeze the trigger and hope for the best as the carrien is right ontop of you. As it happens the gun was set to burst mode. All 3 rounds find there target and the carrien is sent flying back blood spattering everywhere its thrown around like a ragdoll as the bullets pierce its thick armor with ease it hits the floor hard and is lying in a crumpled heap over by the breakfast bar near calm your not sure if its still alive, unconscious or dead you'll have to go over and check. The noise of automatic gunfire is deafening, pistol fire is loud as you know its been echoing all over the room for last minute or two but this. They probably herd that on the roof of this building.


[END OF COMBAT ROUND 2]

Currently only calm is still in combat. Rightyo you have 12 hours till 11PM tonight to make your move. your guns jammed so you'll have to engaged in melee combat (or call for help) or spend a turn unjamming the gun (free shot for the carrien tho)

tba

I'll grab the mutants machete and try help Calm.

Sarky

Knifey knifey, stabby stabby!

AL][EN

==============
Combat Round 3
==============

Calm
Cursing to yourself you roll back from the carrien dropping the jammed gun in the process and proceed to pull out one of your two MAC Knife's its 8 Inches of cold steel and you want to make sure the carrien tastes every bit of it. You try to stab the carrien but it easily avoids your attack and attempts to bite your arm but its teeth clang off your armor thankfully at least your armor is made of sterner stuff than that wretched pistol.

Tobias
The carrien is in front of you attacking calm so you seize the opportunity to attack swinging the machete as hard as you can there is a loud CLANG and the blade bounces off the thick hide armor of the carriens. It seems like this thing couldn't cut paper its that blunt. Dropping it you curse in disgust. Your not going to be damaging the carrien with that thing anyway. Clicking on your mutilator glove it hums to life the readout says systems green and the electrostatic charge builds up in the glove.From your periphery vision you can see the others heading in your direction you reckon there's time for one more round of combat before they engage

===============
end of combat round
===============

Ok folks Calm and tobias again are only ones in combat if the carrien is still alive at the end of combat round 4 the rest of you will be able to engage it in combat in round 5

tba

WHY WONT YOU DIE YOU LITTLE ****!

I hit it in the head with the glove.

AL][EN

Sarky / Tba

I'll give you 8 hours to reply in thread since im not waiting up till 3:30am for the 12 hour deadline to expire.

8 hours gives you till 11:30PM tonight to decide on body parts to target what weapons to use. etc

The rest of the squad will all be in range to engage in melee combat in the next combat round which will be at 11:30PM tonight if the carrien is still alive.

AL][EN

=============
Combat round 4
=============

Calm:
Even though you've herd all the stories about carriens, that these creatures are savages and have very low intelligence this one seems to be the exception to the rule. Despite your every effort to kill this thing it just wont go down. The carrien has taken up a defensive position in between both of you and it trying to keep an eye on your both at once. In the end luck prevails as you Feign an attack to the left then attack right catching the carrien off guard, The Mac Knife slides underneath the thick hide armor of the carrien as moments later tobias runs in screaming "WHY WONT YOU DIE YOU LITTLE ****!"

Tobias:
This carrien is really starting to annoy you now. While most of the wounds you've suffered are only flesh wounds none are serious its the fact this rat just wont stay dead. You'd like the satisfaction of killing it yourself but at this point you'd take a little 5 Vs 1 tag team action just so you could stomp it dead, with the others racing towards you calm makes a last ditch attack he goes to attack left but switches mid movement and attacks right opening up the carriens defensive position. He slams his blade home leaving the carriens head wide open for an attack not even realizing it you sceam "WHY WONT YOU DIE YOU LITTLE ****!" as you punch the carrien square in the head the force of the blow caves the entire right side of the carriens skull inwards as it drops to the ground dead.

[COMBAT ENDS]

GAME TURN 9

In what seemed like an eternity of death and madness the sounds of combat die out leaving your ears ringing from the gunshots. The 3 remaining carriens that were knocked unconscious seem to have died from their injuries. The Mutant is still alive. His breathing shallow, very much unconscious but he is alive. The apartment living area has been torn apart from flying bodies, Gunfire and general melee combat. Only the light from the kitchen the only room to have been spared destruction at this point shines into the room. There is still no sign of qwertz but the only other logical place he could be right now is in the kitchen. As you approach you can see into the kitchen sitting at the table with his knifes drawn and laid out on the table is the serial killer. He's sitting directly in front of qwertz

[END OF TURN]

tba

I put my finger to my ear and murmur something, as I step away from the group I whisper Something to Rowenna so only she can hear.

"We need information not a body, Ill leave this to you and Eglon"

Retrieving my Fen from Vigo I motion towards the Unconscious Mutant,

"He's Plan B, is he alive?"

Calm I need a hand with a bit of masonry, plus I don't want to see this.

I go out to examine the stone statues on the balcony.

Sarky

Calm wipes the blade and resheathes his knife, and sets about unjamming his lousy FEN. After a few seconds trying to use his fingers he takes out a clean knife to help work on the fiddly little bastard.

"Useless piece of crap. I'll have to see about getting something better whenever this is all done. I'd like to question the mutant later if someone can stabilise him. I'd like very much to shoot the skinless gentleman in the kitchen, too, somewhere very painful. But it looks like that'll have to wait, at least for now. What's this about masonry, Tobias?"

Unjamming as he walks, Calm walks out to join Tobias.

Hivemind187

Wanders over and starts giving the Mutant a once over.

Raphael

Eglon makes his way around the room, finishing off the unconscious carriens, whistling while he works

qwertz

Qwertz listened to the discussion between the killer and his saquadmates.

"Everybody," he said with his voice raised, "We have come to an agreement that will very likely clear our names and remove these charges. I for one am willing to take that risk and let the guy finish his work. At present we are in no position to tell him otherwise anyway since we have been suspended."

Qwertz positioned himself between the killer and his squadmates to make sure they all got his point.

"I am a man of my word," he added, "I won't deviate from that principle just because some of you have more heat than sense."

Nevyn

Ro' shrugs and pivots on her heel to open the large firidge in the kitchen and starts rooting through it throwing over her sholders things she is not interested in so that they hit the wall behind her making pretty noises and pretty smears as they slide down the wall.

Buried at the back she finds a bottle of high stim beverage and knocks it back.
She wipes her mouth along her the back of her sleve of the hand which still has her Fen
in it. She then grins at the Killer and says "Kill ya later" and leaves the kitchen.

Game Turn 10

Please note the text in green only Roweeina can hear

======
Vigo:
======
Vigo walks over to the battered mess that used to be Robert Hawkings. You immediately crouch down beside the injured man and break open your medi-kit. His vital signs are erratic at best and you estimate a 45% chance of saving his life. You begin the race against time to save this man's life. Well ... he was a man, now your not so sure what he is. Examine the body you've never seen anything like it. The skin is a redish purple blotch with scaring and boils, the skin has been removed in some parts of the body. the lips have been removed from the face and his cheeks slashed open. Its a quite brutal display whats been done to him though your unable to tell if this was self inflicted or did someone else do this to him. You take this chance to try and get a DNA sample just to be sure its robert hawkins and to see if you can pin this on the killer. You managed to get a DNA sample from this man but you can't find any other evidence of DNA from anyone else. You are using basic tools ideally you'd need to get this man to a hospital to be sure. You also find a waxey greasy substance with no smell or color on the fingertips of this man. You didn't find it underneath his fingernails as this man doesnt have any fingernails on his hands. After several tense minutes you manage to stabilize the man his vitals are returning from critical condition however he is still deeply unconscious. Waking him might be possible in a few minutes however it could cause undue stress on his system and in your medical opinion could cause him irreversible damage. Your diagnosis is he will live if left alone for the next 48 hours to recover. If you wake him he will also live if not placed under a tremendous amount of stress.

The doctor lies, He knows the mutant will be well again, Kill that mutant before its too late

=======
qwertz:
=======

Placing yourself between the killer and your squad seems to have done the trick, The rest of the squad has backed down and now appears to be going about other activities throughout the room. The killer stands up looking after the departing frother and says .. That woman scares me.! I wont forget this, You have my word once my work is done i will contact you on your COMS channel, We will arrange a meeting place and i will turn myself over to you. Before i go i will part with you a gift. It is a gift of knowledge The Valkyrie testing facility is in central but i lied to you, i know exactly where it is. It is located underneath the ruins of the hill springs shopping mall ..... oh wait isnt that where your team.... hmmm strange coincidence isn't it. There is a secret entrance to the facility across the street from the mall in an old run down shiver station. Be careful the shiver station is a front. all the shivers there are on the payroll of Valkyrie getting past them will be quite difficult. The proof you need to clear your names is in that testing facility. You are looking for the video surveillance recordings of the sewer tunnels the day the mall exploded. There was another entrance to the facility through the sewers. however that entrance has collapsed since the destruction of the mall. The cameras recorded your squad entering the sewers perhaps it will explain the missing minutes of your lives. Also the data for the illegal use of the combat drug are contained somewhere in the facility im pretty sure they were using the air con system in the mall to feed in the combat drug in small doses to the mall dwellers and observing their effects. The proof of this you will need to find in the facility it may also help your case if you find this data.

And that is all i must go now my maste.... employers are waiting for me to contact them ... goodbye

With that the killer collects his gear and moves out into the living room past Vigo and the downed mutant and walks out the front door.

He's LEAVING YOUR LETTING HIM GET AWAY KILL HIM KILL HIM KILL HIM KILL HIM KILL HIM NOOOOOW!!!!!

=====
Calm:
=====
Following tobias out of the kitchen there is a satisfiny click as the firing pin slides back into place, There the gun is unjammed and SHOULD be working now. You follow tobias into the living area you see hivemind working furiously trying to save the mutants life. Walking past Vigo you move out onto the balcony and into the evenings rain. Thunder echoes in the distance as rain pours down onto your face. The two angels stand on the balcony wall looking into the apartment, The strange thing about this situation is that one of the angels has its hands over its face and the other does not. its hands are not covering its face they are palms up reaching out this is the first weeping angel you've seen that does not have its hands covered. They look and feel like normal statues. You take a good look at the statue and masonry they are made from you cant see anything special or different about them. shrugging your shoulders you wonder to yourself why tobias is so curious about the angels.

DO NOT TRUST, trust is for the weak save yourself before it is too late

=====
Eglon:
=====

On examining the carriens most of them are dead your not sure about the last one its still twitching but your not sure if thats just a reaction from the carriens nervous system after its back was broken. In fact your not sure where that thought came from what does a carriens nervous system look like? For a moment there you had a moment of clarity you felt smarter more intelligent. Strange that. shrugging you smile and whistle to yourself and your boot comes squarely down on the back of the carriens head squishing it. The body of the carrien stops twitching instantly. Your standing in the main living area it looks like a scene from an action movie you've seen on the vid. In the corner vigo is squatted down before the mutant trying to save him, out on the balcony calm and tobias are looking at the statues. you watch as the killer emerges from the kitchen strolls through the living area and out the apartment door you emit a low growl as he does maybe it was just you but as your growl gets faster and deeper the killers steps seem to quicken.

watching always watching, waiting ..... in the shadows

=======
Roweeina:
=======

Bored with all the theatrics you go to the fridge and pull out the first can of beer you find, its a week old can of slosh and it tastes putrid but its beer and taste of it seems to clear your mind. Seems like you wont get to play with the killer for now but a deals a deal and he says he'll hand himself over to you once he's done. Your guess is once he walks out that door you'll never see him again. at least that's what you'd do if you were him. No one is that crazy to give themselves up.
Moving into the living room you see vigo the human wanna be heely deely trying to save the mutants life. so that's Robert Hawkings eh. poor b@s!@rd probably never even saw it coming. Who ever got to him did a real number on him. You also see eglon whistling to himself while stomping on the heads of some of the already dead carriens. Out on the balcony you see Tobias and Calm examining the stone statues of those angels. Man those things really creep you out your not sure why though. You herd the killers conversation with qwertz from where you were so what you do next is up to you. You dont care so long as these stinking humans would just hurry up so you can leave. Your hungry and you feel like some fried chicken.

hhhmmmmm fried chicken

======
Tobias:
======
You've had enough of this sicko to last you a lifetime. you leave him to qwertz he made the deal its his mess. Your more interested in these statues and why the hell they keep appearing everywhere you go. Moving out from the kitchen with calm close behind you moving past vigo who is desperatly trying to stablize the mutants injuries. leaving vigo to it you move out onto the balcony into the pouring rain the angels are facing you as you approach, You also notice the fact that one has their face covered and one does not. That is strange indeed. The masonary the angels are made from seems to be solid enough. They look and feel like regular stone statues however they stone they are made from doesnt seem right somehow. Your not sure how to explain it but its a feeling you get. Also the closer you get to the statues you get a dizzy feeling. you chip off some of the masonary and examine it. Its a pale almost colorless grey and then you spot it!! whats odd about the angels. The one that has its face uncovered. you follow its gaze and its looking directly into the kitchen at the table where you all were and its looking right at the spot where the killer was sitting. now that is strange why would you build a statue that is looking directly into the kitchen of an apartment. something just doesn't add up about these angels

save us, save us from them SAVE US!!!

[END OF TURN]

Sarky

"They just look like carved lumps of rock to me, I'm afraid. Am I missing something, Tobias?"

Unloading his FEN, Calm gives the trigger a few squeezes to make sure the mechanism is working smoothly. Once satisfied he slaps a clip of regular ammo in and holsters the weapon.

"Hmm. I know a Shiver captain who owes me a favour. I'm gonna see if she can provide some details on the station opposite the mall. If you'll excuse me a moment..."

With that, he looks for an empty sideroom to make the call in peace.

Nevyn

Ro sticks a finger in her left ear and takes a good look around and then takes off her comm link and checks to see if it's working correctly. She ponders the odd voice she heard and then brushes it off to that thing called a subconcious and decides it needs subduing with
drink and drugs asap.

She wanders passed everyone and every thing in the room and steps out of the apt door too stand in the corridor again, taking as much as she can in a surveilance sweep.

tba

I stare at the killer as he leaves looking confused, then back at the angel,

"Fuck it, I need more to go on"

I gather some stone sample, and pocket it to send with the medivac.

Stepping back into the room, i glance at the bloodied mutant, then stroll into the kitchen.

Qwertz, I told Smite you were being held captive to buy time, it would be nice if you had some injury to collaborate the point, I would deck you one if I thought it would help anything, but as it is, we need to work with what we've got.

I turn away and examine the mutant, while connecting to the net.

***COM LINK SMITE***

HOSTAGE SITUATION CLEARED (NO FATALITIES),

"Christ I hate that fucker"

qwertz

Qwertz gives the other operative a stern look and says, "Hit me and I will skin you alive, submerge you in vinegar and dry you off with salt."

Qwertz gives the Frother a disapproving look and then follows the killer to the front room and says, "Don't mind her, she's just a junkie. Just remember this: Brainwasters never forget."

Nevyn

Ro roars into the apartment " Yeh big Jessie did ye forget already that we are all sodding well chipped?"

Raphael

Eglon glares at the killer until he leaves, then turns back to the rest of the group.

"So, where we going now? Wanna find something a little more challenging to kill... those Carriens were no fun."

Hivemind187

Begins pocketing samples and reloading my kit.

"So, whats the plan folks? D'you want to look into this Valykrie thing closer or what?"

===============
All Operatives
===============

Finishing your sweep of the room there doesn't appear to be anything left other than the med-vac of the now stable Robert Hawkins. Two of the shivers from downstairs have arrived on scene and are following standard procedure. They have cordoned off the area with crime scene tape and have moved into the apt to stand guard and wait for the med-vac. As the team files out of the apt and into the corridor Vigo and Calm are in the lead followed by Tobias, The rest of the squad follow behind him. The 3 of you notice it standing there in the corridor right by the lift its a statue of a stone angel its looking directly at the door to the apt you were in just a moment ago its there motionless just .... looking. It creeps you out in a way really and it defiantly wasn't there when you entered the apartment. You approach the lifts keeping a wary eye on the statue you hit the button for the lobby. The doors of the lift slide shut with you all safely inside. The lift reaches the ground floor and from there you begin your silent journey across town back towards central and whats left of the hill springs shopping mall. You take the gauss rail network from your current location to a station close by as the one at the hill springs that you stopped at your first time here is closed off. The area around hill springs has been closed off for "technical examination" however the orders don't say who ordered the closure or what they are examining for. There are high level riot shivers stationed here with orders not to let anyone enter the hill springs site for ANY reason. Your squad is now standing across the street hidden in an alley looking across from the shiver station where the rumored entrance to the Valkyrie testing facility is.

If you look at the map provided in the COMS channel you will see that the shiver facility is a one storey building with no basement level, the facility has only 1 main entrance (A) into the structure and a fire door / emergency exit at the back between (B) and (C) however the door is locked from the inside and is wired directly into the shiver emergency SLA channel. any attempt to open the door by normal means will set off the alarm, trigger a lockdown inside the facility and alert all shiver stations in the sector. All the windows are blocked with re-enforced steel bars. The fire door is only accessible through the rear of the facility which is still part of the complex it is the shiver vehicle yard in order to access the fire door. you would need to scale the wall, avoid the cameras sneak through the vehicle yard and get through the firedoor without setting off the alarm.

How you enter the facility and What you do now is up to you.
