Timeline: MD06 - 2102

Sesl>The Garden> "Dance...my type of girl....but I can't as I might lose track of time and I don't want my bodyguard to hit me on my head again" He rubs over his head remembering that the girl loved it to much doing that to him

AirfilterRoom> Checking the area, Sarah could not see any direct dangers as she looked back at Hawk "How are you doing?"

AirfilterRoom> Akoni slightly nods, "I'm okay," but is hurting, sweating a little.

The Garden> Charlotte pouted. "That's no fun! You look like the best dance partner here," she leaned closer to him, giving him her best puppy dog eyes. "Just one little dance couldn't hurt?"

AirfilterRoom> Checking her side pockets as she grabs a broken injector and drops it to the floor "Shit.... the smack on the floor broke my medic gear. Put some cloth on it to suppress the loss of the blood. Shall we continue?"

AirfilterRoom>He takes his good hand off his bad one and shows her, "It's already wrapped. And yeah, let's do this."

Sesl>The Garden> Marza blinks and feels a bit awkward and pushed her gently away "Well I am honored by your request my lady, but I do have a meeting in a minute" He shrugs

The Garden> Charlotte sighed and shrugged. "Can't blame a girl for trying right?" Then she pouted again. "And meetings are boring, why would you want to have a meeting when you can dance?" She shimmied in place, tossed her hair over her shoulder and laughed.

AirfilterRoom> Nodding towards him as Sarah rose her pistol again moving down the stairs to the door as she slowly opens it hearing in the distance personnel talking about supplies as their voices fade away "Lets move" She said and moved into the corridor and towards the next area as she noticed something she took a step back hearing people placing some plates and cups as she signals towards the room next that was empty.

AirfilterRoom>Akoni nods and enters the next room, and then leans against the wall.

Sesl>The Garden> Marza blinks at her and smiles "Well girly, I am a Commandant after all. They need people like me and I am needed up at the second floor for some big important things"

EmptyRoom> Closing the door behind her as she looked at Hawk "I presume the meeting is next to this one" Sarah looked around trying to figure out the function of this room as she grabs some blankets "reserve materials..."

The Garden> "Oooh. Big Boss has to make big decisions?" Her tone was teasing. She waved at the bartender and pointed at her empty glass, asking for another. "Sure they couldn't go without you for one night?" Charlotte giggled and played with her empty glass.

EmptyRoom>Akoni watches her and then gets himself refocused. "I'll start setting things up."

Sesl>The Garden> Blushing at that offer "Well no, they need their fearless leader! I mean Commandant Mehuth and Daatll are nothing without me!" He said with a pride face

EmptyRoom>Pulling out the listening equipment, Akoni leans against the wall, then sets out attaching it to the wall.

EmptyRoom> "Be careful" She whispers "The wall is not that stable..." Sarah said as she rips a cloth and walks to Hawk "Put it around your hand, I don't want any blood left over the floor" With that being said, she took a device from her side pocket and started to remove the blood on the floor.

The Garden> Charlotte shuddered. "Oooh, your job sounds so exciting!" She placed her left hand over her heart and fanned her face with her right. "I would love to hear more about what you do," she gave him a wink and licked her lips. She pretended to barely notice when the bartender exchanged her empty glass for a full one. Then turned to lean her back against the bar and "accidentally" caused her drink to spill on Sesl. "Oh my GAWD!! I'm sooooo sorry! Here, let me help you!!" She fumbled for some napkins, found a couple, then pressed them against his thigh where the majority of her drink landed.

EmptyRoom>Nodding, Akoni pulls away from the wall, seeing the blood thats come through the cloth he had wrapped his hand with on the roof, and starts wrapping it more with the cloth Sarah's handed him.

Sesl>The Garden> Blinks at the sudden interaction and looked at the Bartender that was suspiciously cleaning the glass slowly and watching the interaction "Humm" He brought out as she went up his thigh "HUM" As he started to blush "You got some spice girl, I like it" He gave her a slap on the ass and wraps a hand around her waist "You know what, be my escort to this meeting"
EmptyRoom> Leaning against the wall without much pressure as Sarah closed her eyes and listens "There people arriving at the scene..."

The Garden> Charlotte squealed happily when Sesl slapped her bottom and curled into him. "Really? You won't get in trouble for bringin' lil' me along?" She placed a hand on his chest. "Oh, I'd love to see you work!"

EmptyRoom>With his hand wrapped, Akoni returns to setting up the listening device. "Almost finished here."

Skinner> The Garden> Seeing the interaction happen between the two made her gag as she placed a hand on Marza shoulder "Commandant ...."

The Garden> Charlotte yelped in surprise and jumped as though startled. "Wh-who's this?" She stuttered, suddenly sounding timid and scared.

Sesl>The Garden> "Ehhh" Marza suddenly stiffs up as he looked at his side seeing the woman standing there with her cold eyes "Skinner.....hey dear..." Looking back at the lady "This is my...ehhmmm bodyguard"

The Garden> Charlotte visibly relaxed. "Oh! I thought she was security come to toss me away," she smiled. "Hello Miss Bodyguard!"

EmptyRoom> "Good, I hear two voices already interacting with each other...." Sarah spoke as she opens her eyes and looked at Hawk and then outside "Still raining, it might interfere with the gear?"

EmptyRoom>Akoni's eyesight starts to go blurry. He shakes his head, "it shouldn't."

Skinner> The Garden> Looked with her cold and unamused eyes to the woman "Tossing you away, that sounds quite entertaining....I might consider it" Skinner said with a grin on her face.

EmptyRoom>"You okay?" Sarah noticed some movements that were not natural from Hawk and looked down at his hand. The white cloth was getting red. Shit he was losing a lot of blood "We need to get this meeting going...."

The Garden> Charlotte poured but then giggled. "Aww, but I don't fly well," she joked and looked up at Sesl. "And he promised me some fun!"

Skinner> The Garden> "Did he now..." She looked at Marza "We got a meeting playboy...." With that said she smirks at the woman and turned around towards the stairs.

Sesl>The Garden> "Well that was...close.." He mutters to himself and looked at the woman "I did promise you some fun, lets get us going then shall we?" He said with a broken smile of both utter fear for the other woman and trying to keep it civil.

EmptyRoom>Not answering her question on how he was, Akoni curses, the device is being interfered afterall. He hears some thunder.

The Garden> "I don't think she likes me," Charlotte pouted but perked up when Sesl asked her to get going. "Yessir," she said sassily and wiggled against him. "Let's go!"

Skinner> Meeting> Walking into the room "Found the playboy....bring his toys with him" She mutters and leans close to the wall looking outside.

Sesl>Meeting> Sitting down at the table, he looked at Skinner and smirks "Atleast I get a booty right here..." Looking at the others at the table as he drags Charlotte onto his lap "See what a caught in the bar....mine and mine alone" He laugh a bit.

EmptyRoom>"It's turning into a storm," Akoni says, "I should have been more prepared."

Mehuth> Meeting> Put his glasses better and rolled his eyes "This is not the time to show off your balls on the table Marza. We are to get this meeting going and discuss of recent events" He spoke and turned the page.

Meeting> Charlotte giggled as she was pulled into Sesl's lap. She then wiggled a bit, to get comfortable, and wrapped her arms around Sesl.

Daatll> Meeting> "You know how he is Rudo, let him play with his meat it get dump afterwards anyway" Looking at Charlotte "No hard feelings, but that is how he is" As he leans back in his chair.

Emptyroom> "Well we did not expect it to be a storm Hawk, now hush the meeting is starting, I can barely hear them" Sarah orders "Activate recorder"

Meeting> Charlotte giggled again and shrugged. "It's ok," she slurred her words slightly, "I'm a rolling stone just looking for some fun," she giggled again.

EmptyRoom>AKoni nods and presses something on it, and then glances up at her. At least it was working, and he listens.

Mehuth> Meeting> "Right...we don't care" Rudo replied as he looked at the two "I am not pleased at the report I received from Red Dye....the mining camp was ambushed while they were partying!" He slams his hand onto the table "This is unacceptable"

EmptyRoom> Akoni stares hard at Sarah as he realizes that PurpleOwl is in the meeting.

Meeting> Charlotte jumped slightly, causing her to bounce on Sesl's lap. She leaned back into him with a slight pout on her face but kept her mouth shut, not wanting to anger the man further and get herself removed from the room.

Emptyroom> "What is wrong?" Only to notice that she hears Charlotte voice...."What the..."

Emptyroom>Knowing it could complicate things, Akoni exhaled harshly.

Sesl>Meeting> Cuddles up with Charlotte "Don't worry, he is just in the moment....that failure is indeed to blame the Camp Commander. He was found dead on the floor" He pointed out with serious face "Specialist could only have done that...."

Parking Lot> Sticking to the shadows, Sabine frowned at the situation. How was she supposed to jump into this one? Eyeing the one guard, she fixed her raven black hair just so and stepped out, walking up to the guard. "So, what happened here anyways?"

Guard> Parking Lot> Looking around, wondering where the other two guards were "Humm"

Meeting> Charlotte rubbed Sesl's shoulder idly as she thought about the night in question. It was unfortunate that they'd had to kill the commander and his guards, but she'd made a mistake and that was the consequence. Her fingers drew lazy circles on Sesl's neck now as she looked around seemingly bored but praying she didn't mess this up. She liked her life too much to get killed.

Parking Lot > Notices the guard's eyes and puts her hand gently under his chin to face her. "This place does seem a bit..empty." She put on a sly grin.

Emptyroom> She closed her eyes again listening towards it "They are talking about the mining ops..."

Guard> Parking Lot> Looking at the woman and checking her out form top to bottom "Good evening to you..."

Parking Lot > "Evening to you as well. You look like you need a bit of," she took a step closer, nearly leaning her body against his, her height helped by heels, "fun tonight."

Emptyroom>"Yeah..." Akoni nods, tilting his head down as he presses a forefinger and thumb between his eyes.

Daatll> Meeting> Leaning back in his chair and trying to balance his chair "Oh come on one screw up because they were celebrating is not a thing to worry about" He replied with a smirk and put his chair normal shrugging as he failed to keep the balance.

Guard> Parking Lot> Blinking at the woman and feeling her breast against his chest "Well it is rainy after all, what can I do for you ma'am"

Meeting> Charlotte tried not to frown as she watched the man lean back in his chair then fall forward. She'd hoped he would fall backwards and look like a fool.

Parking Lot > Grins, glad it was working. "Rainy yes, and rather cold. I think I need a bit of warming up." She let her eyes scan around them. "Perhaps somewhere a bit more..private?"

Mehuth> Meeting> That pissed him off "Just forget about it?! We lost the slaves at the mining cave....including those 12 monky's"

Guard> Parking Lot> He giggles a bit at that "I can ....I can help with that ma'am"
Emptyroom> "Another confirmation about....the administration team. What is their play"

Parking Lot > "Then I will let you lead the way, somewhere warm and...comfortable?"

Meeting> Charlotte began lightly running her nails over the back of Sesl's neck. She wanted to throttle the angry man, make him feel the pain those "monkey's" felt before being released.

Sesl>Meeting> Smiled at Charlotte and plays with his hand on her back as he looked at Rudo "Don't worry about those monky's. They are just a pain that needs to be sweep away. Operations support for Sacred Bones is more important. They keep negging about it...these religion a-holes want their attention back"

Guard> Parking Lot> Nodding towards that offer and looked around seeing no one come "In the back there are some cars open, we can ...warm up there" He said and started to walk in front of her.

Emptyroom>"That's something..." Akoni whispered, looking back up to her, his eye sight still blurry.

Parking Lot > Liking the idea of that, she let him lead the way, making sure to stay in eyesight as the rain made her clothing stick to her skin, showing off her body a bit more. But with him walking in front of her, she reached her hand behind her back, waiting.

Mehuth> Meeting> "Again? These priest are not even worth our time..."

Daatll> Meeting> He leans forward "Well, I don't tend to agree with you on that ....they are bloody genius. Put the people against themselves to promote themselves....they buy it!"

Meeting>Charlotte snuggled into Sesl, putting a tiny bit more pressure on her nails and fighting the urge to dig them in, hard enough to draw blood. Her curiosity was piqued by the mention of the operation and religious people. She gave a slight sigh, hoping it sounded bored, hoping they went into more detail.

Parking Lot > Finding what she was looking for, Sabine pulled out the handle end of an engineering tool. The rain made her grip wet, but it didn't falter. "Say goodnight," she whispered as she took the handle and hit it against the back of his head with all the power she could.

Sesl>Meeting> Letting Charlotte do her kinky nails "Soon love..." To answer her boringness "The priest will put forward the plan but need support from us to guard their supplies. We need that city support"

Guard> Parking Lot > Hearing the voice, but to late to respond as the man fell to the ground.

Parking Lot > Sabine grinned and put the handle back away, finding a sedative hypospray and giving it to him. "Can't have you waking up to early there."

ACTION The Parking lot was now clear of all guards, Crystal Fruits Operatives that were wounded are cleared from the area.

Meeting>Charlotte stifled a giggle and wiggled her ass in Sesl's lap, hoping he would speed things up. Every minute she was in that room, her life was in danger. And while she lived the thrill of living on the edge, being this close to the woman Dufrai had warned her about was killing her buzz and actually making her worry for once.

Emptyroom> Starting to hear interference as Sarah looked outside "Shit...the weather is playing up....what can we do about these priest?" Sarah rubs her head as more questions kept popping up.

Parking Lot > She eyed the cars, heading for the truck that was there. "Now, let's see what we can do here."

Daatll> Meeting> "We will send in support to them. What about that gig what Phantom pulled off at that tower" He laughs "Oh that Captain got hit bad man" He leans backwards in his chair.

Mehuth> Meeting> "Yet Phantom failed the job, I got intel rolling in that he survived somehow" Rudo replied annoyed

Emptyroom>Sarah's voice going in and out, Akoni nodded, "It's not going to be easy." Not when it came to those who represented the belief system of a people.

Emptyroom> Now that interesting information was coming the device stops working "What the..."

Meeting> As Refelian was mentioned, Charlotte dug her nails into Sesl's neck a little harder than intended. These bastards were celebrating their attempt to assassinate the Captain and she could do nothing about it but play sexpot and hope she left alive and not in a bodybag.

Emptyroom> "Damn.." Akoni said, having picked it up from serving with so many Terrans. He pressed some keys, "It's done.."

Parking Lot > "Damnit. This weather..." Sabine continued to swear under her breath, digging around in a few tools. "Come on, I can't fail on this explosive thing," she whispered to herself, trying to get it setup again.

Sesl>Meeting>"Aww" He looked at Charlotte "Keep that fury in you for later dear..." He looked at them "We should not have another attempt for a while. That would be foolish.... but you did your job well Skinner"
Skinner> Meeting> She smirks and shook her head "Darkscars did a perfect job so far... but the clock tower was almost a failure. This operative that got there at night was skilled and escaped the area"

Parking Lot > "Finally," she said to herself again as she backed away, putting her tools back wherever they came from in her tight outfit. "Maybe I can get out of this damned rain now."

Emptyroom> Sarah looked down "Grab the gear...we evac now..." With that she started to check the windows.

Emptyroom> "Yeah...," Akoni detached the listening gear from the wall, quickly putting it away.

Meeting> At the mention of Dufrai's attempt to investigate the shooting, Charlotte's blood ran cold. They were on to the intel team. What if they figured out who she was? She shivered as she tried to think of a way out of this meeting.

Sesl>Meeting> Looks serious at skinner "Are we compromised? "

Emptyroom>Akoni put away the equipment inside his clothing, and nearly fell over as he joined her at the window.

Skinner> Meeting> "Not yet, but if I get this bastard, I will skin her alive and toy with her some more until I get every inch of scream out of her" She said coldly

Mehuth> Meeting> The room went a bit silent as Rudo looked at Skinner "Well good that your squad is at our side..."

Meeting> Charlotte began fidgeting in Sesl's lap as though she was wanting to have the promised fun. 'Maybe if I entice him enough, he'll end this blasted meeting and I can make my escape,' she thought.

Emptyroom> The window opens as Sarah pressed the side of her ear "Stealspider go"

Parking Lot > Hearing what was said, Sabine backed away to where she was safest. "Hopefully you stayed dry you damned thing." She hit the trigger, ducking just in case.

Sesl>Meeting> He laughed at that "A very good statement there" He moved his hand slowly up Charlotte skirt and looked naughty at her. But his hand stops when his head turned towards the harsh sound.

Meeting> Charlotte froze when the explosion happened. "What was that?" She exclaimed, sounding like a lost child.

ACTION The explosive on the truck was well placed, to well as it was close towards the transport engine and a lot explosion was heard as the pressure wave destroys car windows. Meanwhile Skinner sprints out of the room to investigate.

Parking Lot > Hearing the multiple explosions, it wasn't quite what she wanted, but it worked. She didn't dare move, as it made much more noise than she wanted, and ducked further into her hiding spot.

Daatll> Meeting> Standing up now also "Damn it.... lets secure the llower grounds now!" With that Rudo joined him as Marza shrugs and stood up "Take some drink, I will be right back"

Emptyroom> Moving towards the door hearing the sounds as she looked outside carefully seeing Charlotte "Pss..."
September 3, 2018

Emptyroom>Akoni is off to the side, looking out of the window.

Skinner> Parking lot> Rushing towards the burning place as she shrugs out of frustration "Damn ....Damn ...DAMN IT" She was looking around rushes close towards Rona location as if she heard a sound.

Parking Lot > Notices people rushing around and tries not to make a sound, watching them carefully.

Skinner> Parking Lot> Placing her hand on the side close to Rona letting the rain drop down her face "Sir" Before she noticed Rona she turned around to the soldier and backed away "Report!"

Parking Lot > She was nearly holding her breath with someone that close. When the soldier backed away, she slipped out of hiding and away from the area, sticking to the shadows.

Hallway> Charlotte moved quickly into the hallway as the guard went to investigate. She heard a "pss" and turned to see Dufrai peeking out the door. Relived beyond belief, Charlotte moved carefully into the room. "Thank god," she whispered and leaned against the wall. "I didn't think I would get out of there!"

Emptyroom>Sweating heavily, blood appearing more through his bandages, Akoni looks over at the two of them. "We need to go. But my hand is going numb.."

Emptyroom> "Hawk get down the window, Charlotte...great job I think you got details for us to tell but that can wait" Sarah said and walked towards the window and reach out a hand to Charlotte "Lets move"

Emptyroom>Nodding, he looks around outside one more quick time, and climbs out, quickly getting out of their way.

Out of the Area > Sabine tapped at her ear. "Where are you guys?"

Emptyroom> Charlotte nodded, her heart racing. She moved closer to Dufrai and the window. "Don't have to tell me twice," she quipped.

Emptyroom> Climbing down as well as Sarah taps Hawk on the shoulder to move. Then when she crossed the side street she heard it "YOU!" Looking at Charlotte that just made it out of time and shook her head as her mask appeared around her head. Her team was save, she needed to make time

Skinner> Street> Rushed towards the scene and stopped with holding with both hands aimed at the intruder "Turn around!"
Street> Sarah turned a bit around and looked through her mask at Skinner as she tapped slowly on her leg. This situation was going to turn into a battle scene. She needed her team out of the area and soon! Sarah stopped her fingers and waited.

Skinner> Street> Taking aim at the intruder "So you are the grey mist, heh what a joke! I am going to enjoy skinning that armor of you and do much more fun things to you!"

Street > Swears under her breath, backing away further, keeping her eyes on the scene as long as she could.

Street> Is with Charlotte, holding onto his wrist, stops and turns around when he realizes whats going on with Sarah.

Street> Charlotte quickly ducked out of sight, not wanting Skinner to see her there. She quickly backed off, hoping Dufrai made it out of there and feeling guilty for leaving her behind. She turned to Kapule, eyes wide.

Street> Sarah rolled her eyes 'Well she has not changed....' and rose her hand and turned around her hand to turn a middle finger at Skinner "Bite me, I enjoy screwing you guys to much" She taps with her finger the palm of her palm as a smoke screen gets created and suddenly . Sarah disappears in the fog and from the scene

Street> Wanting to help, Akoni knows, she wants them away. He shakes his head. "We can't"

Skinner> Street> Firing her pistol into the smoke "Damn damn you coward!" She yells

Street > Shakes her head, "Always a trick."

Street> Noticing the smoke screen, Charlotte pulled Kapule back and laughed. "She's good," she pointed at the smoke and then urged him to fall back to the safehouse.
