*So, the research brought back from the tip of Gristlegrinder and reserach into 'pharmaceutical companies recently having break ins brought everyone to this address. About 20 miles out of town, it rested in a partially-filled 'Business Park' Surrounded by sterile looking green spaces, random ponds with fountains, sidewalks and big white stone buildings, this was a not-so-big white stone building with a large warehouse to one side.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:28:15 PM)
*Tom had come with Imani, who was obviously the one in-the-know in this particular situation. He came armed as usual, but neglected to ride his bike, relying on a ride from someone, instead. He remains quiet and alert during the trip, eyes and ears focusing on looking for anything amiss or unusual in his surroundings.*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:30:01 PM)
*carrying a practice blade at his left side and a strange crimson ribbon about his right wrist, his voile is a simple series of browns in place of his usual vibrant colors and embroidery. He'd driven his own car, but parked a good distance off and waited to meet up with the rest so he could hear Imani's information as well*

JamieL (Nov 17, 2011 2:30:11 PM)
*There were a few remnants of a polie investigation around the warehouse, bits of tape left over, but it was not corded off at present. The warehouse had a few worklights on, the building was open*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:31:37 PM)
*Imani eyed the area with a scowl*Da mecca a legal smack. Dis shit make me sick*He turned toward the group*Grist said his crew broke in here ta get whateva dey make da violet wit. We lookin' fo' a white paste dat stink like ass, and a green fluid dat stink like menthol and ass.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:33:29 PM)
Aengus stretched a bit upon exiting his muscle car; he'd followed Gideon over. The Scathach moved with typical silence, levering a curious glance and no more at the ribbon on the other sidhe's wrist. He hadn't varied up his functional voile all that much for the occasion since his standard was meant for occasions just like these. He nodded Imani's way, flicking another glance around the outside.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:34:10 PM)
Sadly I ain't got mo' ta go on, so we gon' have our work cut out fo' us. One thing I do know, when ya mix white and green it smell like rotten oranges.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:36:01 PM)
"If it helps Chloe figure out how to beat this stuff, well-worth the work." Another nod.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:36:06 PM)
*Tom approaches the warehouse, first looking around for any cameras he would like to avoid being caught on and then for a way in. If he finds the way in, he approaches it and focuses his hearing inside the warehouse before actually going in, trying to listen for anyone or anything moving inside.*

JamieL (Nov 17, 2011 2:36:15 PM)
*It appeared that reception was open. A general drive around showed there was a main entrance, a back (employee) entrance and an emergency exit on the reception / administration building; two loading docks and four other entrances / exits on the warehouse. Both loading docks had security gates, thress of the four entrances were alarmed, the last had a small bay where a guard stood and employees were smoking outside*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:36:23 PM)
I'm figuring that what was stolen was mrely ingredients, rather than the finished product.

JamieL (Nov 17, 2011 2:37:05 PM)
*It appeared to be 6-8 employees, and three visible guards: one at the employee bay and one at each loading dock gate*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:37:05 PM)
No doubt*He nodded to Gideon*Dey probably on alert too, what wit already bein' broken inta.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:37:23 PM)
((Mundane guards, right?))

JamieL (Nov 17, 2011 2:37:28 PM)
((yes))

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:40:51 PM)
*agrees with that grimly, looking over the place and checking out the legitimate business side of things curiously* Perhaps .. we could simply ask them what had been taken?

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:41:48 PM)
*He looked the pair of Sidhe over*Ya'll can probably convince dem to, at least.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:43:08 PM)
"Worth a shot. Odds're good they aren't just gonna let us mosey into the warehouse and start checking labels." His gaze slipped from Imani to Gideon. "Guess I'll follow your lead?"

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:43:09 PM)
It's worth a try..given the security. *a quirk of a smile* I doubt the majority of the guards are gay, so my odds of distracting them for you all are quite low.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:43:16 PM)
Hmmm... I'm not sure I'll be a lot of help here if we do anything but ask or buy stuff... I'm not experienced in breaking and entering - unless the breaking is kicking a door in and all... And fighting the guards doesn't seem like a good option either. And my lying sucks. Guess you persuasive nobles are running the show here.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:43:53 PM)
There's a bunch of employees moving inside, too.

(This user is now known as Attractive Blonde Secretary)

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:44:21 PM)
*inside the main entrance there was an attractive built in mahogany desk and a you, attractive blonde secretary*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:44:26 PM)
*young)

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:45:04 PM)
He smirked at Aleron, his eyes resting on the other sidhe as he shook his head.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:45:08 PM)
I see if da employess is still gabbin' bout da break ins*He looked to the group that were outside smoking*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:46:08 PM)
Excuse me a moment then, gentlemen. *the mundane mien of his simpler voile is a zip up sweater and a pair of tailored jeans over a plain white tee, and he breaks away to head inside to the attractive secretary and her desk!*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:46:17 PM)
*Tom goes with Imani but stays mostly quiet and observant.*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:46:23 PM)
*she looked up from her computer screen and offered a plastic smile* May I help you?

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:47:16 PM)
*Imani headed for the smoker's circle*Sup, ya'll. Can I bum a cig off one a ya?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:47:22 PM)
*The employees outside - one female, two male. The two males were chatting about football* What a pile of bullshit, Minnesota didn;t even put up a fight. That was the worst Monday Night game I have seen in ages...

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:47:34 PM)
Aengus did the same, following after Aleron with his hands tucked in the jacket of his pocket. He smiled right back at the pretty girl, but remained behind the Gwydion and let him do the talking.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:47:54 PM)
*The second male looked up at Imani. The guard bristled, but said nothing and the younger man headed over* Sure. *holding out a pack of Malboros*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:48:27 PM)
Good look, son*He slid one out of the pack, fished out his lighter and sparked it up*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:50:12 PM)
You just get hired at NewPage? *the kid asked, gesturing to the big factory / warehouse directly across the street*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:50:45 PM)
*locking eyes with her, he smiles lightly and fishes in his pocket for his wallet without breaking contact with her* Evening miss. I sincerely hope you can. *deliberately letting his gaze linger before smiling a bit self-consciously* I'm sorry.. My name's Gideon. *he straightens up a bit and offers his hand to her to shake.*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:50:55 PM)
Me and my boy here*He thumbed at Thomas*Ya'll been ova here long?

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 2:52:40 PM)
"Kyle," he supplied, slipping his hand out of his pocket for a little wave. Who knows? Maybe she liked them a little more working class.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:53:13 PM)
(Gideon, roll me some appearance + subterfuge dif 6)

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 2:53:30 PM)
*Tom just nods when Imani points to him, smiles,stays quiet and tries to look a little dumb to justify his quiet, hoping no one asks him many questions that he would have to lie about.*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:53:52 PM)
*The younger tech nodded* Yeah, I been here for four years now. Randy been here for over six. Decent enough place, but this park gets nasty at sundown.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:54:01 PM)
Keep your car doors locked

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:54:59 PM)
I heard bout dat, but I figured it was jus' da rumor mill yanno? I guess it true dat ya'll had some break ins too?*He took slow infrequent drags on the cigarette*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 2:55:22 PM)
((11/17/11 19:55:12 Gideon Ryder rolls 5 dice vs. diff of 6 to app subterfuge: 9, 6, 2, 8, 2 : 3 successes))

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:56:21 PM)
*She straightened in her seat and took Gideon's hand* Good afternoon Gideon. My name is Alyana. How may I help you?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:57:02 PM)
*the younger tech gave a nod* Yeah, some freaky shit, busted in from underneath somehow and nicked some stock.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 2:58:01 PM)
*He raised at brow at that comment*Underneath? Damn yo, dat don't sound like no fuckin' junkies tryin' ta get some pills.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 2:59:38 PM)
Yeah, that's what was damn strange about it. We had methies bust in before, breakin the windows and shit so we steel-webbed them all. Shitheads still try but now they just ring the alarms and get picked up.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:00:15 PM)
*he has the good grace to look a bit relieved she's taken the bait, but it's more likely to be interpreted as gratitude she overlooked his lingering glance* Pleasure to meet you, Alyana. Really.. Ah.. Well. I'm tracking down a lead on some missing chemicals around the area. For a piece I'm writing. I heard about the break in here, and I was wondering if you're allowed to tell me what's gone missing? *lowering his voice* It'd really help me find out if this is related to another crime..

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:01:27 PM)
*He shook his head with a faint chuckle*Sound about right. Ya got me all curious now though. What da hell these ocean eleven muthafucka's take?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:01:29 PM)
Oooh, that. *she sighed a little and started riffling through papers* I can't give you anything, but I do have an official information release request. It goes to headquarters and if approved they'll mail you the relevant details.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:01:43 PM)
*offering out a folder*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:03:40 PM)
*The tech shook his head* That's the batshit thing. Nothing that has real value on the street. All the usuals and the safe? not touched. They took some diet pills and thyroid meds.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:03:55 PM)
*he grimaces, closing his hand about the folder and offering audibly* Thank you Alyana..you've been most helpful. *before speaking quietly again as those storm grey eyes find hers* I really don't have that kind of time... Look, people are getting hurt. And if I can prove the connection, then I can get an agency involved to shut these assholes down permanently. *his smile tightens, as if he were trusting her with his hope* But I have to get an exact list.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:04:54 PM)
*his fingers brush hers on the folder, gaze imploring steadily*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:05:10 PM)
*Her eyes tightened* I don't have that sort of information. I could call Mr. Thomas, the warehouse foreman...

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:05:50 PM)
Dat is batshit right there. The hell ya gon' do wit dat shit, force ya fat ass lady ta trim up?

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:06:17 PM)
Diet pills and thyroid meds? Couldn't you just buy those over the counter anyway?

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:06:52 PM)
He pressed his lips together, eyes slipping to a wall-clock as he rocked on his heels.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:08:19 PM)
You'd be doing me a huge favor, if you can get the information from him, Alyana. And quite likely saving lives. *he nods a little and accepts the folder finally, speaking normally* I'll just fill this out then..

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:08:33 PM)
*To Imani* Maybe *and to Thomas* What you buy over the counter is low dose, and most of the diet pills are just placebos with some herbs to think you're getting something

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:09:50 PM)
*she sighed and made a phonecall while Gideon filled out the paperwork*

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:10:08 PM)
"I imagine this whole thing's been a huge hassle," he imparted with a sympathetic smile Alyana's way.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:10:19 PM)
*He was silent for a moment, just smoking and considering*I mean, ya hear bout all kinds a crazy shit goin' inta new street drugs. Maybe we gon' see some new shit breakin' out.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:10:20 PM)
*and Gideon jots up a form full of bullshit*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:11:20 PM)
Ah. *Tom nods to the tech*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:12:31 PM)
*she gave a nod back to Kyle, before speaking on the phone* There's some people here asking for the breakin list. I don;t know. Yes. No. Ok, sir.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:12:54 PM)
Oh God, I hope not *the tech guy said* Negative press just fucks us over, yanno?

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:14:47 PM)
He glanced over at Gideon, watching him fill out the papers while the secretary did her thing.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:15:13 PM)
True dat, I hope it ain't nothin' a the sort*He rubbed his chin and puffed on the cig*I did hear some shit on da news bout mo' and mo' kids gettin' sick out in da city. But, dem kinda meds can't really hurt ya, right?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:15:59 PM)
Only if you took them in massive doses

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:16:26 PM)
*the secretary looked up to Kyle and Gideon* Mr. Thomas says he is available to meet with you, if you can show him credentials he can produce a copy of what was taken

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:16:52 PM)
*listening to the phone conversation, he exhales and then nods to Alyana* I'd love to see him.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:17:27 PM)
*He nodded*S'what I thought. What's da world comin' ta, yanno?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:17:44 PM)
He can be by in about ten minutes if you would care to wait? *she gestured towards a small sitting area*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:18:14 PM)
Pretty much. *The older tech yelled* Hey, Tony, break's over. *The younger guy sighed* They're playing my song. Good luck with the new plant!

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:18:53 PM)
"You're a peach." He used a grin to hide his curiosity at how Gideon planned to fake credentials. With a nod, he drifted over toward the waiting area.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:19:04 PM)
Thanks, brutha. Ya take care now*He waved to Tony and continued smoking what remained of his cigarette*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:19:56 PM)
*he hands her back the file, minus the page he'd filled out, holding onto that* Guess I'll just hand this to him personally. *moving with Kyle over to the chairs and speaking quietly* I wonder how the others are doing. *chuckling ruefully*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:20:10 PM)
*The techs ambled inside, the guard stayed put, looking severe and unpleasant*

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:20:48 PM)
*Several minutes passed and a heavset older man wearing a labcoat and nametag that read 'Kyle Thomas' walked up towards Gideon and Kyle* Someone was looking for information?

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:20:56 PM)
*He smirked at the guard*Worried bout ya job, boss?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:21:34 PM)
No. Breakins give me job securty *he replied gruffly*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:21:53 PM)
*he rises, nodding to "Mr Thomas" and offered his hand* I am. Can we walk and talk, or would you prefer an office?

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:22:50 PM)
"How 'bout that. Another Kyle." He grinned up at the foreman from his seat before rising to his feet. He'd offer his own hand when his turn came.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:22:55 PM)
Heh, good point. I ain't consida dat*He chuckled*Still, I bet ya was shittin' bricks when dey came in from underground like da fuckin' ninja turtles.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:23:44 PM)
*He shook both of thier hands, politely* There is a conference room nearby *he made a sweeping gesture with his hand, leading them towards the room and offering seats* So, what are you seeking?

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:24:06 PM)
Junkies try some fucked up shit to get at the good *he shrugged*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:25:14 PM)
Yeah, ya know how crazy dem diet pill junkies is*Another chuckle from the cap, who had finally finished his cigarette. Checking the natural impulse to eat the thing, he instead dropped the butt and crushed it under his heel*

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:26:29 PM)
He followed after the two of them, easing into a seat when it was offered.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:27:13 PM)
God only knows. Figure they was hopped up stupid.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:28:36 PM)
*following along, he puts a hand on the back of the chair and then changes his mind, remaining on his feet* I'm trying to find out exactly what chemicals were stolen from your facility here. *perfectly frank with the manager* I need to know, because I've seen evidence of a designer drug on the streets that's literally driving the inadvertant users to homicidal rages, and it's not matching up with anything we know is on the market. I think the theft here is related to the creation of that drug, but I can't get an agency involved in stopping thse people until I can prove what's being done. Which..I'd need the chemical list for. Catch 22.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:29:14 PM)
I guess so*He looked over at Thomas*Well, can't be gettin' back late when ya brand new, right?

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:30:10 PM)
I'm not asking for samples, I'm not asking for dollar amounts or stock listings of how much you keep. I just want to know which chemicals were taken. The information can do you and your company no harm whatsoever..and it might save lives, if you simply choose to.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:30:31 PM)
Who are you working for? *The foreman asked of Gideon*

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:31:26 PM)
Time for a little tag-team. "Kyle," he said, leaning forward a little. "You have kids?"

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:32:13 PM)
*Nods to Imani* Yeah. Lead on.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:32:16 PM)
For this? Freelance, at the moment. The only people I want to help are the ones being poisoned, and those they're attacking while under the influence. I've got no ties to any pharmaceutical companies of any sort, nor to any reporting agencies.

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:33:10 PM)
Freelance? You're do-gooders? *he blinked* Yeah, I've got kids

Attractive Blonde Secretary (Nov 17, 2011 3:33:20 PM)
(This user is now known as Mr. Thomas)

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:33:29 PM)
Take it easy, boss*He waved to the guard and started on a long winding route back to the car that would take them through the NewPage lot*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:34:30 PM)
*He holds up his hands in an eloquent shrug* What I'm asking for might inconvenience you for five minutes to type up a list. But it's no danger to your company or your livelihood here. It'll never go public. I just need it so I can find out if the theft's related to this new designer drug, and get the right people working to counter it. Maybe even warn other suppliers in the area who may be targeted next. Anonymously.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:35:18 PM)
*He smirks to Imani as they walk.* Sorry I wasn't much help.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:35:20 PM)
"Well, this crap is making its way into schools." There was no need to fake the note of anger in his voice. "And the cops don't know anything. What it is. Who's moving it. No one will find out if you help us out, but you can go home knowing that you did something that helped keep kids just like yours safe."

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:36:08 PM)
*the guard gave a slight nod to the two*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:36:23 PM)
*He looked up at Thomas and shrugged*I ain't know what we was gon' run inta, so don't sweat it.

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:37:02 PM)
(k, Gideon and Kyle, roll your charisma + persuasion dif 6 if you do not have persuasion roll subterfuge at dif 7. You need 5 or more successes between the both of you)

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:37:16 PM)
(Imani and Thomas, roll me per/kenning dif 7 as you wak)

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:37:18 PM)

(Fail for kenning)

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:38:21 PM)
((2 sux))

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:38:38 PM)
((2sux!))

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:39:53 PM)
*Tom keeps walking, but speaks quietly to Imani* Did you feel that? Feels like there's glamour beneath our feet. Like a tunnel or something.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:41:07 PM)
*He looked around, then back to Thomas*Man, I musta breathed in too much violet or somethin' cause I ain't been sensin' shit lately.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:41:46 PM)
*He walks slower and looks around, trying to focus and figure out where the tunnel leads - the end away from the warehouse, he figures one end of it leads to the warehouse and is likely what was used to break into it. He tells Imani.* It's kinda faint, really.

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:43:04 PM)
*The foreman looked between the two sidhe and sighed. he took Gideon's paper and scratched down three names: Tenuate (diethylpropion); Targretin (bexarotene) and tricarbocyanine

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:43:22 PM)
*He followed along, letting Thomas be his guide*It make sense. I guess someone cooked up some pretty big magic ta tunnel all dis out. Whatcha think, we go see where it take us once our boys get done inside?

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:44:05 PM)
Now, you should turn in your forms and they'll be processed within fourteen business days.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:44:40 PM)
Kyle smiled reassuringly. "You did the right thing." Rising, and straightening his jacket.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:44:51 PM)
*exchanges a glance with Kyle, score one for team "Can't Lie", and nods gratefully to the Foreman* I'll just get a fresh one at the desk and take it home with me. Thank you.

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:46:09 PM)
Have a good evening.

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:46:26 PM)
He winked Gideon's way with his back to Thomas, pushing his hands back into his pockets as he ambled silently out of the conference room, then the administrative building.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:46:38 PM)
I'm trying to find out where it goes now... But, like I said, it's kinda faint.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:47:07 PM)
*he'd shake Mr. Thomas' hand again sincerely, and heads for the desk to collect a blank form, letting Alyana know he'd jotted some notes on the old one that he'd like to keep.*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:47:11 PM)
((Later!))

Kyle Hess (Nov 17, 2011 3:47:12 PM)
((Thanks, have fun folks!))

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:47:16 PM)
Keep it up, I make sure da others catch up(See ya)

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:47:23 PM)
*she handed him a fresh form* Good luck

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:48:22 PM)
Thanks Alyana. You've been a big help. *and he salutes her with the page on his way out to meet the rest*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:48:53 PM)
*Imani hung back a bit so that Aleron would have an easy time finding them*

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:48:57 PM)
*Thomas and Imani were milling about near the back sidewalk. The roll appeared to be intent on the ground*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:49:49 PM)
*Keeps trying to figure out where the tunnel's entrance would be.*

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:51:14 PM)
*Thomas kept picking up traces of it running past the business park, it looked like it eventually headed to a drainage ditch in a patch of land that hadn;t yet been razed*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:52:09 PM)
*nodding to Imani, he shows the redcap the page he was given with the chemical names* Got what we came for. What's Thomas up to?

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:52:51 PM)
Think I found the tunnel the looters used. It seems to lead to that drainage ditch there. *He indicates with a movement of his head.*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:53:23 PM)
But if you got the name of the things, maybe we can buy them instead of doing the stealing thing too?

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:53:25 PM)
Nice work, son*He pointed to the ground*One da employees said da folk dat broke in came up from undaground.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:54:22 PM)
*impressed look, as Thomas can apparently track a tunnel from above ground* Yes.. we convinced them to tell us. Underground..that's a pretty major operation normally. It'd take days of work.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:54:34 PM)
May as well check da tunnel out anyway. One end might lead ta a safehouse or some shit.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 3:55:01 PM)
*Nods* Sure. This way. *He leads them to the drainage ditch*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:55:33 PM)
Or some signs of the people we're looking for. *and will follow, folding the pages in his hands and pocketing them*

Mr. Thomas (Nov 17, 2011 3:55:34 PM)
(kk, give me 5 to grab more coffee)

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:56:18 PM)
*He looked to Aleron*Neva woulda guessed diet pills and thyroid meds. Someone in dey operation sure know dey shit.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 3:58:07 PM)
*lifting a hand in a shrug* I have a bunch of Latin written down. I couldn't tell you what it meant.

(This user is now known as J)

J (Nov 17, 2011 3:59:21 PM)
*Thomas found a drainage culvert where the chimerical signature seemed to come from. It was about 2 1/2 feet in diameter, a big concrete tunnel that ended in a deep blackness*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 3:59:25 PM)
Jus' what one da techs said. I'm guessin' dey grindin' da shit up, den cookin' it like crack or some shit.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:00:15 PM)
((phone))

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:01:33 PM)
Again, you have me at a loss. I merely indulge from time to time, I know nothing about the preparation of such things. *looking at the culvert Thomas led them too*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:02:09 PM)
*He chuckled, moving in to check things out as well*I'm sho' Chloe be able ta tell us mo'

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:03:43 PM)
((back, sorry about that. work stuff.))

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:03:55 PM)
(wb)

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:04:20 PM)
That looks like a tight fit, even if I crawl...

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:04:35 PM)
*It smelled like mud, rotting leaves and old water*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:04:51 PM)
((Welcome back)) *after a moment's cursory inspection, he starts searching around the area where the tunnel ended, for signs of a vehicle out here*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:04:58 PM)
Smells better than a sewer, though.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:05:26 PM)
I did bring torches, by the way.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:05:34 PM)
Dey got at least one Sluagh on da payroll, so I guess dat's who went in.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:06:49 PM)
*Nods to Imani* ((My understanding of the english system of measures is not so great, but 2 1/2 feet really is too tight for Tom, right?))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:07:47 PM)
(It is about .8 meter) *The culvert ended in a big draining ditch, starting from a series of drains streetside. There were cars parked along the street and in parking lots. Chimerically however the trajectory looked a bit dofferent than the mundane*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:09:39 PM)
*Tom tries to squeeze in anyway, just wondering if it will work, leaving his gear outside behind him to help, figuring he can pull it after him later if it looks like the tunnel opens up more.*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:10:29 PM)
Depending what's on the other end to close it up.... ((Am I misunderstanding? This is the end of the tunnel that came from the lab..we already know what's through there, yes?))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:12:10 PM)
((You believe the tunnel chimerically leads to the lab, yes)) (Dex/ath dif 7 Thomas)

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:12:48 PM)
*He certainly wouldn't be getting past Thomas in the tunnel, so he took to sniffing around outside with Aleron*

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:13:56 PM)
((Okay, thanks))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:14:22 PM)
((As a heads up, I need to wrap this scene up pretty soon and get back to work. I will wrap it up so you are not scenelocked))

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:15:09 PM)

(yes)

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:16:31 PM)
((Failed percep investigation, so if there's anything worth finding, I don't find it. lol Ooo a -red- leaf!))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:17:43 PM)
*Thomas could shimmy himself in far enough that his nose was tickled by a rush of glamour. As he peered into the chimerical tunnel bright beady eyes stared back at him* Hey-oooo you! What ARE you doing in mah tunnelz? *The voice was bright, country-styled, common*

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:18:04 PM)
You're huuuuge! You blockin' all th' sun!

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:18:54 PM)
Poking my nose in. And there wasn't a lot of sun to being with, was there? *He wonders if it's some burrowing sort of pooka and waits for his eyes to get used to the darkness, as much as possible.* I'm Thomas Walker, by the way.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:19:05 PM)
*He just chuckled at the sight of a Troll squeezing into a tunnel*Dat was worth da whole trip.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:19:20 PM)
I didn't say it. *smirking at the legs sticking out*

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:19:45 PM)
*Didn't look like a pooka... from the dim bit of light it looked like a big, fat chimerical mole* Hooo-ey! Thomas Walker, more like Thomas Crawler! Heh, heh heh!

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:20:10 PM)
*Chuckles* Right now, that's right, yeah. Did you have this tunnel long?

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:20:23 PM)
((I mean... Have you had this tunnel for long?))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:20:57 PM)
Shee-at I did. Fer years and years. They thought they get rid of me when they brought in the white shiny towers but no, sir. NO gettin' rid of mole-y!

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:21:58 PM)
Well, nice to meetcha, Mole-y. What white shiny towers? ((Is there anything nearby that would fit that description, by the way?))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:22:09 PM)
((The business park building))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:22:12 PM)

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:22:21 PM)
You know, dem ones they build!

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:22:37 PM)
Ah, yeah. So, someone else was walking around your tunnel recently, right? Did they bother you?

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:24:20 PM)
Uh, yeah maybe.

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:24:35 PM)
You know... I'm peckish

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:24:58 PM)
*successfully resists the urge to hang something on Thomas' feet, and doesn't even mention it*

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:08 PM)
((peckish = kinda hungry, right?))

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:12 PM)
Maybe You and Is talk about stuff after a meal? I head that Smackey-Ds has these new Earthworn and Wlanut salads. Mmm-mmm-mm!

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:14 PM)
(yes)

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:29 PM)
I makes a deal wit you... bring me one and I tells you about my visitors

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:37 PM)
Deal.

J (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:37 PM)
(Since I need to leave very soon)

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:25:59 PM)
((No worries. Before you said peckish I was already checking wikipedia for mole diets. lol))

Ya find anythin in there, Mr. wiggles?

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:29:38 PM)
The mole who made the tunnel. Apparently she'll trade info for Smackey-D's earthworm and walnut salad. Or he, I couldn't tell.

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:31:25 PM)
Sound funky*He shook his head*Easy enough ta put tagether though.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:31:27 PM)
I've never heard of a Smackey D.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:32:20 PM)
Me neither, but I figure it shouldn't be hard to find. Sounds like a wormy Mac Donald's...

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:33:31 PM)
*shaking his head before he draws a flat steel case from his jacket pocket and gets himself a clove cigarette* Might be a bait shop. *bemusedly*

Imani Shields (Nov 17, 2011 4:34:39 PM)
Check da shit out I guess*He checked the time on his phone*Shit, I gotta be....well I got somethin' ta take care of. I catch ya'll later on.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:35:53 PM)
*cupping a hand around his lighter as he nods to Imani* Thanks for your help. And the information that led us here.

*Smirks as the cap goes and asks Gideon* Would you give me a ride back? I left the bike parked near heart of fire. *He looks down at himself* I know I'm not clean and all, I can walk if you prefer.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:39:15 PM)
*he exchanges a gance with Thomas after Imani's venom* Good to know where he's coming from, I suppose.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:39:48 PM)
He's always helped before, even if it was for his reasons.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:41:19 PM)
*he waves a hand toward his car, though his expression tightens* Of course Thomas. Please..I'm not so shallow as to place my upholstery over the needs of a friend.

Thomas Walker (Nov 17, 2011 4:43:34 PM)
*Smirks* I wouldn't hold it against you and I didn't mean to offend. If I implied anything about being shallow, I apologise even if I didn't mean to.

Gideon Ryder (Nov 17, 2011 4:46:53 PM)
Well then, *taking a drag and exhaling with a smirk* Since you won't hold it against me.. walk home. *chuckling and patting the troll's shoulder with a gloved hand* Come on. I'm not that easy to offend either. Let's get you home.
