SPYCRAFT: Blood Money (The African Dream)

[Codename: GhostFox]

[ OOC: There is no change from the previous post - GhostFox is going to wait and see what happens. No sense tipping her hand. Keeping one eye on the kitchen door and another eye on her team. If the team is attacked or if men with guns go through the door, then she'll do something. Let me know. I think its called it a Ready action or delay action.]

Kim presses the issue... with a gentle smile...

"Be silent... and you may just live to see another day... don't move..."

Kim slowlr reaches for his gun to remove it... His eyes narrow menacingly to the CPG

"You made your first mistake by watching me... your second was trying flee... and your third was to threaten me... now shut up and stay put..."

OOC: Intimidate +9 action die usage to keep him silent get 2d4 because of Adaptable to keep him silent... Bluff +10 as needed

"You made your first mistake by watching me... your second was trying flee... and your third was to threaten me... now shut up and stay put..."[/B]

The compusure of the cell phone guy totally melt. This guy is clearly the kind who points gun at people all the time but who has trouble keeping his cool when the situation is reversed.

OOC:

Kim
Intimidate
ro 19 critical threat. I took the liberty to spend your action die on activating the threat instead of rolling 2D4

As a result you cand ask up to three snappy question and he'll answer thruthfully. Make them short, you don't have much time.

BTW; I gotta stop rolling extreme numbers, the amount of critical errors and failures is getting ridiculous!

Luddite gets a signal that one of the team is sending data. He puts down his book and goes over to his laptop and takes alook.

OOC: I adress these actions back in the gearing up phase.

PS: I assumed that Roman took these picture as soon as he noticed CPG and sent them to Luddite before Kim spooked off Jeff.

Kim takes a moment to compose himself with a smile...

"Who do you work for? Why are you following me?

Kim pauses briefly thinking...then continues whispering...

"Who are you? I want answers and I want them now..."

 

[Game Control]

His voice betrays his fear.

-Look man, I'm in the army. I had my orders. I wasn't following you, I was following that fat american!

Under the menacing glares of Kim, the soldier blurts out more info.

-My boss is Captain N'Gambe. If you got a problem, take it up with him.

Kim feels this is the truth but he also gets the feeling that the soldier is holding out on him. He prompt the soldiers to provide more detail about his orders.

-We're gonna silence the fat bastard, okay? That's what you want to hear? You are in the middle of something big and you should let go before you get killed!

Despite the brave words, Kim and the soldier both know who is affraid to die, here.

Suddenly there is a commotion at the entrance, 90 feet away.

OOC:
Sense motive 17 + 7 = 24
He knows more than this. Thus I anticipated your next question for expediency's sake.

 

[Alexander Roman]

OOC: Oi! Go to work and miss all the fun!

PS: I assumed that Roman took these picture as soon as he noticed CPG and sent them to Luddite before Kim spooked off Jeff.

[OOC: Right. If my character knows of this capability of the phone, he'd definitely use it as quickly as possible. The Player (Me) doesn't own a cell phone and is not totally hip on what cell phones can and can't do. Guess I'm a bit of a loser. Heh.]

[OOC: Gotta head back to work now that lunch is over. I'll catch up with what's going on later tonight. But here's quick heads up. I want to follow/trail/shadow Neilan as best as possible without getting myself killed. If I'm spotted and there's a good chance I'll be accosted, I'll spend an action die to escape/disappear. ]

Kim decides to watch the commotion keeping an eye as well on the captive... he will not act unless it becomes prudent to do so... he whispers...

"I hope for your sake these are th friends you were raving about..."

OOC: Continuing to Intmidate +9 and use Spot +7 to see what is going on... this is getting bad...

Jeff Neilan has almost reached the main entrance suddenly makes a run for it. He pushes past the flow of new arrivals. That's when he sees the soldiers...

They scream for him to freeze as they raise their rifle and the civilians start screaming.

OOC:

You all realize that something is about to happen.

The soldier are still outside but the large doors of the entrance are wide open. Jeff is still inside but the soldiers have clear LOS.

Steel Ronin sees the soldiers and hears them shout at Jeff. He has walked past the sedan and has walked a short distance away. He's currently 30 feet away from the soldiers and has clear LOS on all 4 of them since the civilian have hurriedly spread out in front of the club. He doesn't see Neilan.

Ghostfox is at the bar which is aligned with the entrance. There are still a significant amount of bystander in the entrance and the salon (the salon in between the entrance and the bar and is still filled with people who were chatting before the soldiers started yelling. She sees Neilan (40 feet away) and one bearded soldier (60 feet away, just outside.

Kareem is close behind Neilan (10 feet) and sees all 4 soldiers.

Kim is still near the snooker table with CPG. He doesn't see anyone but hears the commotion.

Given Roman last comment, I presume he closed in on Neilan when he saw that Kim had CPG under control. That leaves him near the entrance at 30 feet but because of his angle he sees neither Neilan or the soldier.

The girl who cried wolf...

[ OOC: I am SOOOOOOOOO tempted to have Ghostfox cry out "FIRE!!!!" or "GET DOWN!!! HE HAS A GUN!!!!! Hopefully our own commotion will offer us an opportunity to escape or nab our man]
