[d20 Modern] Session One: Funky Martian Monks (CowBoy BeBop)

[Byrons_Ghost]

Vincent looks around the room and thinks, Oh yeah, monks. Like there would be anything to search.

He takes a couple of minutes to look over the area Akitomo pointed out (OOC Spot +3, take 20). He then shakes his head, turns back to Akitomo, and asks to be shown where the scroll was kept.

Horin-ji Temple - Monks quarters
New Kamakura City on Mars

Vincent wasn't able to find anything in the vicinity of the monks quarters. It looked like Jun had pretty much cleaned out the place when he left, taking whatever little possessions he had with him.

Akitomo led him to another building where a few guards stood. They scrutinized him for a long moment before allowing them both in the building once the monk explained their task. The building itself was as beautiful as the temple but not nearly as ornate.

Inside were many glass cases. He was led to one that had a velvet cover over it. When Akitomo lifted the cover, /incent could see the empty spot where the scroll would have been.

Vincent looks over the room, and especially the empty case. Then he asks Akitomo, "How are the guards posted? I'd like to speak with whoever was on duty the night it was stolen."

(OOC Are the guards on the entrance to the room, or just the entrance to the temple building itself? Or is this the only room?)

"Thank you for your help," Bobcat told the vice-abbot with a relieved laugh. "I'm Bobcat. I was wondering what you could tell me about the scroll's thief? How did he get away with it? Such an important relic of your temple must have been guarded, huh?"

Both men reach out and grabbed both of Chases' arms and pandamonium broke out in the club. They dragged him for a few feet toward the back door.

Chase thrashes about, trying to free himself, he will try and free himself, if possible, and will make their lives a living hell till they let him go, of course if they keep drag him off, he is probably in for a beating, and his face is too pretty for that...

"Get your hands off me, hey can't we work something out?"

If Chase can he will run...

"Tanaka and Nomu always guard at night," Akitomo answered while waiting patiently for Vincent to finish. "They should be eating their dinner presently and preparing for the night watch."

Vincent combed the building, but all he could see so far was that it had been cleaned. It appeared the monks must clean daily and don't seem to appreciate the idea preserving crime scenes.

The two guards are standing outside the building. No one stands inside except for Vincent and Akitomo. There is only one exit and that is where the guards are standing. The windows look very well fashioned and certainly not broken in any way. The locks looked quite secure.

Akitomo confirms that none of the windows had been broken into and the windows can only be opened from the inside.

Bobcat could see the vice-abbott force down a sneer and keep the smile on his face when he answered her. "This...thief is a false one...unpure. He does not practice what he preaches. He believes himself superior to everyone when he is but a worthless one. He practices ways, terrible thieving ways which are unknown to the true monk. I am sure he could have done it easily...so trusting was everyone toward him."

Chase is able to break free of only one of the men's grasps. The tall man still holds on to him while the short man opens the door that leads into the back alley bursts open as . To their surprise a man stands outside which Chase recognizes immediately as Gil.

"I eave you for a few seconds and already you get into trouble?" Gil speaks with a grin.

Vincent finishes looking around. "Well, the thief definately would have had to come through the front door, which means the guards would have seen him. We'll wait for them to arrive and then I can talk with them."

"You were the first to report the scroll missing, Akitomo? What time did you make the discovery?"
