[Delta Green] Operas and Avatars: Puppet Shows and Shadow Plays

[Gomez]

(OOC- Hey dude, I can't tell a bomb from a UFO! )

OOC: What if it is a Bomb and a UFO?

 

[Maerdwyn]

Solomon rushes out of the cave with Andrews and the others. "Sherriff, can you organize roadblocks in, say a ten mile radius of this cave? Major Garrett will help you if you need more manpower."

ooc: is Deselos dead? If so, and if there are no other med-evacs needed, Solomon says the following to Andrews:
"I'm thinking one of us should go to search from the air - Forensics and the bomb squad are on their way, right - do you want to wait for them, or go up in the bird, or do we have other ideas?"

 

[taitzu52]

"We should let the bird do the searching," says Andrews, "they can radio us to any location we need. I'm not rappelling off of some damn chopper. Send a truck over to the other side of the ridge for now." Still standing in the cave mouth, he says, "And beside, I'm not leaving this much evidence just lying around."

 

[Maerdwyn]

Solomon nods, and goes to Captain Danvers. "Captain, we think the suspect is on foot, probably wounded. You want to take your men up in the copter to search from the air? We're getting the roads shut down, should be able to keep him penned in for a little while at least. What do you think?"

 

[Gomez]

More men and equipment arrives at the sight. Hobbson and Major Frank Garrett arrive. You now have two helicopters searching the area. Reservation police, state troopers, and police drawn from neighboring cities are pulled into the manhunt. Roadblocks are set up and an APB is set out. Forensics and the bomb squad show up and after about 15 minutes the head of the bomb squad comes out of the cave. "Well, the only thing I can tell you is that I don't think it's a bomb but that's about it."

Forensics and the bomb squad show up and after about 15 minutes the head of the bomb squad comes out of the cave. "Well, the only thing I can tell you is that I don't think it's a bomb but that's about it."

"Alright," says Andrews, "then what the hell is it? Can it be moved?" Andrews heads back inside the cave. "OK folks, let's get forensics in the cave, and if you can get any tech's more specific than the bomb squad, I want them out here." He walks back into the cave and gets a good look at the bodies and the sphere. He won't touch it, but cues Brown to get some pictures. "I don't like this, Brown. Not one little bit."

(OOC-Search +13)

 

[taitzu52]

In addition, Andrews will rush forensics to get the bodies out as quickly as possible. He's not letting anybody near the sphere that isn't a Fed.

 

[Maerdwyn]

Solomon does take the pictures, and points out especially the bloody fingerprint he noticed earlier to the team. He also picks up Andrews' line of reasoning. "Agent, Hobbson who's your best tech man at the Phoenix crime lab? I think we'll need an opinion from him about whether this can be moved back ther for further analysis."

 

[Gomez]

"Alright," says Andrews, "then what the hell is it? Can it be moved?"

"I don't know if it is made out of a metal or plastic." The bomb squad tech shrugs. "It only weighs a few pounds and cannot see anyway of opening it short of busting it open. I can put in a bomb proof container for shipped to any lab you want."

Major Garrent says. "I want it taken to a state lab for analysis." Sheriff Colorados speaks up at this point. "What ever it is. It's on reservation land and as of right now we have jurisdiction. It stays with the reservation police."

 

[taitzu52]

Andrews begins to shake his head. Oh boy, he thinks. "Gentlemen," he says, "may I remind you that you don't even know WHAT it is, or can even begin to decide what sort of facility is called for. I'm calling some experts."


He gives Hobbson a look. This is his field office, and Andrews expects his support. "I'm calling DC, Director. This is kind of technology is a serious security threat." Andrews makes the call, hoping to get the Defense Department involved since none of these local schmos can figure it out.

(OOC- I'm going to need some Knowledge - Law checks here. How much pull do we have in this situation? Legally, first, it IS on Native territory. Secondly, I know I talk trash about it a lot, but how much pull do I have in DC? Could I get the military on this if need be?)
