MISSION: GET TO ZE CHOPPA

[initiatesnpc]

Date & Time: August 23rd, 2753 (OOCly forward-dated to the 1st)
Location: Uruguay National Defense HQ
Characters: All transports!
Summary: All transports are sent back to Uruguay to download a self-aware AI before it gets bombed out of existence by an early incarnation of the UE. Time distortion effects will be set right either on the way there or on the way back, according to player choice.
Warnings: violence, action movie tension, 3 terabytes of foot fetish porn.

The Transporter drops the entire transport population into what will quickly be established as Home Base, a mile from the vast, sprawling facility that is Uruguay's National Defense HQ. The low roar of helidrones moving above is pervasive, but the black ships can only be glimpsed here and there through the thick cover of trees overhead. If you keep calm and quiet, it's likely you won't be spotted. It's the UND HQ their attention is on, after all.

The population is quickly sorted by attending Initiate employees according to who volunteers to fight and who volunteers to protect, along with those with enough skill to access the computers, and those with enough skill to get them there. The fighters move out first, off to intercept the early UE's ships and ground troops, and to draw the automated defense systems of the facility alike. They'll be in a crossfire, and neither side will be happy to see them there.

The techies and their escorts are sent out far more quietly, in groups of three. Their task is to sneak past the front lines and into the facility itself. There might be alarms and automated defense drones, so those escorts may well be called on to earn their keep. The Initiative can't give any information about which building will house the AI's mainframe, that information was long since lost to history. All they can do is send out enough people to hope that one of them manages to find it.

And remember — as soon as the UE troops withdraw, there will only be minutes until the bomb drops. Everyone would do well to work fast.



[[ Mission information is here, and the techie/escort teams, along with their hacking results, are here. Each techie/escort group will have their own established thread, but Team Distraction and Team We'll Stay Here, Thanks are welcome to thread where ever and however they like! The newbie log that goes up on the 1st will also encompass the arrival back in Exsilium, if you'd like to play that out as well. ]]

Die is right. Unlike you.

[Logick in action.]

[caligulas_aquarium]

Not like I would if I did go out there.

[DOES HE HAVE TO PROVE IT]

[speakveryclearly]

[Ahahaha GOD NO]

Of course not. But you don't have any reason to go out there anyway, do you?

[caligulas_aquarium]

Guess not.

[Kicks at the ground.]

Exactly how much a' this war just...means waitin' around for fuckall.

[speakveryclearly]

A lot of it, actually. Missions have, if you'd believe it, increased in frequency lately.

[caligulas_aquarium]

...

Wow, this place sucks.

[speakveryclearly]

Doesn't everything according to you?

[After a pause she thinks back to his word choice and, without meaning to, grins just widely enough to make her fangs fully visible. Maybe if this all works out...]

I'll be on the second floor if you need me. [And with that she takes her rainbow drinker (not fake thank you) leave.]
