Use this thread for all actions occuring after 9:00 PM; anything before 9:00 PM is to be posted on the previous thread.
Gear [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
Finally after killing time for several hours Veronica stands up and moves off to her bedroom, dropping the remainder of her dinner into the trash. Shortly thereafter she returns to the foyer, clad no longer in the casual attire of the day but instead in a very modern suit and coat, the latter styled specifically for a bodyguard.* Opening the hall closet she pushes aside several coats and opens a panel at the back of the closet; perhaps once designed for an ironing board. Veronica takes a case from the compartment and carries it to the kitchen, where she rests it upon the table and enters the keycode. As the top is pulled open, two handguns, two machine pistols, eight clips and several boxes of ammunition are revealed, all neatly fit into foam compartments. The firearms she removes one at a time, inserting ammunition into the clips and then the clips into the butt of each gun, which is slipped onto an appropriate holster, either on her coat or strapped beneath it. So prepared she closes the case and replaces it in the closet, pulling her hair up tightly so as to have it out of the way later on. Lastly she takes a pair of deeply tinted sunglasses, the frames large enough to obscure the shape of the eyes to an image recognition device. So equipped she leaves for work. *Actioneer Line When the successful tweed-based retro-Houndstooth and Hunt Ball lines died out in the late 2050s, Vashon Island released the groundbreaking Actioneer line, appealing to the on-the-go powerbrokers of the modern corporate world. With high collars and necklines, no lapels and hidden fasteners instead of buttons, these business outfits have a flat, smooth and sharp no-frills style. Most Actioneer outfits also incorporate tasteful and stylized corporate logos into the texture and clothing. As with previous lines, integrated Kevlar fibers and custom-shaped carbon-ceramic plates provide adequate protection. The Actioneer long-coat designs are specially tailored for bodyguards and feature built-in concealed holsters and ammo-clip pockets.
At home... [edit] [delete] Maynard Evers (Hunk)
Maynard eats a little, but finds his anxiety has killed most of his appetite. He sits on his bed holding Cyon's Browning MP, staring at it and thinking. After a while he snaps out of his trance and calls Cyon, to ask if he cashed the cred stick. After speaking with Cyon briefly he puts on his secure vest and buttons his camo jacket over it. He grabs the transceiver and his cell phone and checks the time. He checks it again repeatedly as he paces around his apartment.
At last... [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
Finally. Time to go. Veronica at last leaves her house, locking the door securely behind her as she descends to the street. Several blocks away she boards a bus to the vacinity of the club. Despite walking the remainder of the way, she arrives at least fifteen minutes early.
Credtick [edit] [delete] Cyon
Cyon, once Veronica and Maynard leave, gets some milk from the kitchen. He wanders around the house aimlesly, unsure of what to do. While in the living room, after finally settling down on the couch, he just looks at the credstick. With a sigh, he leans forward and picks up the credstick and holds it. He then gets up, grabs his things, as well as putting the armament that he had on earlier back on. Putting his glass in the sink, he looks around one last time and then leaves the house. Once the door is shut and locked, he looks up and down the street. Walking quickly and determindly, he moves in the direction of the nearest cred facility. Reaching it without hindrance, he attempts to cash the credstick. After getting the cash, he returns home.
Prepared [edit] [delete] Cyon
Cyon goes to the kitchen, then pauses, and places his pistols on the table next to the computer. He returns to the kitchen and gets some fruit along with a glass of water. He sits on the couch watching TV till he recieves a call from Maynard, "Yes, I have cashed the credstick and it went fine. ... I'm ready to do this. ... Ok, at least we know the encryption works. Bye." After this he waits for the call from Veronica.
In Position [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
Veronica enters the club via the VIP entrance, offering the 500¥ required for entry. Once within she moves off to the side upon reaching the bottom of the stairs and begins to 'speak', her mouth remaining still. "Alright gentlemen, I'm in position. Confirm status, please?"
The Bouncers [edit] [delete] Admin
Apparently used to this type of person, the bouncers take Veronica's money and allow her through. They seem more professional than those at the other entrance. The interior is just as it was the last time; loud and chaotic.
About the area... [edit] [delete] Maynard Evers (Hunk)
Which side of the club is the VIP entrance on? What's across the street from it?
The Area [edit] [delete] Admin
With regard to the layout of the club, check the map posted on the archived thread for, "The Green Bat"; I will repost it here soon. Across the street is another similar building; tall office building with storefronts in the lowest portions. In this case, a Pizzaria.
Ok... [edit] [delete] Maynard Evers (Hunk)
Maynard pulls up to the sidewalk across the street from the club. He answers Veronica on the radio, "I'm here."
Understood... [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
"Understood; what's the situation at the doors?" She steps aside to allow a man past her, "Cyon, are you up and running yet?"
The guards [edit] [delete] Maynard Evers (Hunk)
Maynard informs her if the guards are doing anything unusual. "How long until...?"
The Guards [edit] [delete] Admin
The bouncers are at their posts, more or less minding their own business and doing their job, though making the occasional comment to a patron. A typical evening by all accounts, at least, so far.
Cyon [edit] [delete] Cyon
When the time came close to the time when Veronica would be calling, Cyon jacked into the matrix. He enters the Green Bat web site and sits at one of the tables, relaxing. When Veronica's call comes through, Cton responds, "I'm here and ready to go. 5 minutes till the camera's will go down? I will be waiting in case you need anything else done, although all I know of that I can help with would be killing all power.
Five minutes, check. [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
"Right, five minutes, check. Maynard, are you ready with the gentlemen at the door? I'm moving in." Veronica begins to step through the crowd toward the dias.
Check. [edit] [delete] Maynard Evers (Hunk)
"Five minutes, check."
Call [edit] [delete] Cyon
** EDITED September 17, 2001, 6:19 pm ** Cyon makes a call to Veronica and Maynard, "The cameras are all looped, you may safely continue."
Right, let's go. [edit] [delete] Veronica Alder
"Understood; let's go." Veronica begins her walk through the crowd. With a combination of agility and assertion she moves through the crowd, removing her sunglasses now that they aren't needed and sliding them into a breast pocket as she approaches and subsequently surveys the dias. (OOC: Please roll initiative with your reply)
The Dias [edit] [delete] Admin
OOC: Post when your turn in the order comes up, it's listed on the Dice thread. Cyon, you're free here. Veronica reaches the foot of the dias. Seated at the booth with Drax and Farrington are two rather scantily clad females, as well as two other men, both dressed in faux expensive garments, studs in the ears of both. The music is as loud as ever, drowning out all but the most determined conversation. The chaos is compounded by the green strobe lights, passing over the crowd in measured intervals as they move to the music.
