"While you do that, I'll go look at some of the equipment we found."

(How so?)

Nitro looks up from flipping through "Encyclopedia of Great Wrestlers." "Yeah, Pipsqueak. He probably needs a good talking to. So, is Numero Uno actually weak against silver? If so, I'll have to get some silver" he pauses "bullets or something before we confront more werewolves."

Nitro turns to Ms. White. "How is it that the rest of us are supposed to get to and from this place? I can't fly super-fast or anything and unless I'm on active superhero duty I'm going to try not to miss too many Friday and Saturday nights in Freedom City or Los Angeles."

He grins all of a sudden. "Say, can you arrange a wrestling partner for me. Preferably in a room with padded walls and ceilings?"

"We can transport you in a number of ways. The alien beaming technology we possess can send you to just about anywhere easily, through a satellite relay, though it cant fetch you except from locations with teleporters there. For those of your without super-movement of any sort, we can install a beamport in your home if you want so you can go to and from the base at will. We also have vehicles that you can requisition that can move quite fast, though we cannot spare one for each of you. For missions though, if you are here and you need to get back to Freedom City, you'll probably get to requisition a van or a jet and we'll teleport you there inside it."

"Oh, and about taht wrestling partner...I'll look into it/ I'm sure I can find some good options other than the holotank"

Soooo.....research...interrogation.....what?

Nitro has a thought. "Oh, I thought of a use for the Holotank. Let's put the sparring partner on hold for now. Do you have a program for, say, a T-Rex?"

"One of our teams went through a portal to The Lost World in Brazil a while back, and we built a simulator based on their recollections and other data we had. Load the Lost World module and think about facing a T-Rex and you'll be set."

 

[Victim]

(Let's see, we have the flash drive and holoprojectors as recovered tech items. Am I missing anything?)

If no one else is interested in checking out the technology right away, Megan will stop by the medical deck. "Miss Red? I was wondering if my test results have come back yet. I'm supposed to take my next normal dose if I'm staying up."

Shooting Star decides to tackle the flash drive first. She'll attempt to requisition a computer with no wireless devices to minimize the chance of any virus spreading. Megan will cautiously attempt to scan the the contents of the drive, trying to avoid any traps that will delete the files if they're accessed without proper authorization. Assuming everything looks okay, she'll attempt to copy and then read the files.

(Computers +17, Take 10 = 27)

EDIT: Acursed math - it attacks in the wee hours when the mind is soft and weak.

(psst...27)

Nightweaver shakes her head at Nitro's desire to wrestle a dinosaur, but says nothing on it, "Which floor did you say the Shiek and, werewolf, were on?" . o O {I just asked to see a werewolf...like some kind of roleplaying nerd. Today is going from bad to worse.}

Red says "Its just Red. Some don't take a Miss seriously, Ms. makes me sound old, and I've yet to qualify for the title of Mrs. The tests show that there shouldn't be any harmful interactions at this point, though your medications did slightly amplify the effects of the Sheik's drugs. When I get the chance, I'll see if we have anything better for you than what you're taking now. I would suggest that you get some natural sleep soon. Our treatment counters the drugs well, but you should still get your normal sleep. you might want to remind he others."

She uses a quarantined computer in the crime lab. The encryption is not that hard to break, especially with the impressive tools that the Trust has on their machines. It seems that this is his personal data storage and thus Control Freak likely wasn't the one providing the security.

She finds a lot of mundane information about the Shiek's drug business; his negotiations with OxCorp; the nature of the experimental plants on the boat used to produce superdrugs; chemical formulas for much of what he produces; information on the lycan serum (nothing new though); information about the contacts and activities of two potential buyers he had talked to, a North Korean diplomat named Soon Kim who offered a great deal of money and a Taliban named Gaith Al-Mahari who offered to trade him a majority share in the poppy business in areas they control; information indicating that part of the deal with OxCorp included them sheltering Barrington and Control Freak until they complete a certain unspecified mission. The Shiek's data on Barrington indicate that he was not only the Nazi super Krieglock, but also in his Anglican days the Catholic-bashing Henry IX, in his Egyptian days Tan-Aktor, who named himself after an ancient sorcerer by the same name, and more recently over the course of his duties in the IRGC, responsible for a number of bombings and assassinations as the masked villain Johnny Jihad. Barrington made contact with the Shiek though an IRGC delegation to Afghanistan, so its unclear if his dealing with the Shiek were government business or among his numerous personal supervillainry activities.

There are still the papers around to look through, and the holomachines. Also there is the interrogation.

"Go to the elevator and press the button that says Detention."
