<La_ST> Last time we had Will Bill hurrying back home due to the fact that he received a distress call

<La_ST> The group sans Sam and Helga followed him and got to know what a good Ranch breakfast is....

<La_ST> It turned out that Bill's father was missing, and in the end there was some traitorous signal that was transmitted from the blimp (I think)

<La_ST> Okay, so now we continue from that time...

<Asm0dai> (The signal was located during the ride... but it's source wasn't verified... also the air was pumped out of the ship but Rhiannon found noone)

<La_ST> (Asmo: Thx. as I said, I just skimmed the log -_-)

<La_ST> Okay, folks, you may now continue wondering about the disappearance of William Irvine II and the cause of the traiterous signal

<Rev_Jones> (Who?)

<La_ST> (Well, the players ^_^)

<Rev_Jones> (Iirc, only the Rev and Bill had actually reached the ranch, or is that wrong?)

<Rev_Jones> (And where is Bill?)

<La_ST> (Okay, then lets start with them

Asm0dai slaps Marvin_Black around a bit with a large trout

<La_ST> (Hm. Otherwise the other were en route to the Ranch, weren't they?)

Nathan_Raiser looks with glee as he has just relaised he is not runnign the game tonight :)

<Bill_Irvine> (Sooorrryyy)

<Nathan_Raiser> (Yes)

Rev_Jones fixes Bill with an icy glare.

<La_ST> (So we start out with Bill and Rev, and the others will drop in in due time)

Rev_Jones leans back in his chair and stretches, patting his slightly fatter stomach as he does so.

<Rev_Jones> Well that filled me up for a week or so. What do we do now?

<La_ST> (I'd say the zeppeling and Skywarp should arrive shortly)

<La_ST> (Bill: You have some comm device that connects you to your plane?)

<Bill_Irvine> (Yup. Usually I have a rigged radio)

<La_ST> (Bill: In that case you get a radar warning from the plane. Some object is approaching the ranch)

<Bill_Irvine> (We are at the breakfast table?)

<Rev_Jones> (Well, I couldn't remember where we got to, but I thought that was about right)

<La_ST> (Bill: You just finished a monumental breakfast Mom's style.)

Bill_Irvine looks up from the table.

<La_ST> (Bill: Your comm unit continues beeping)

<Bill_Irvine> Oh, excuse me, Mom. I forgot something in the plane and the beeper just reminded me...

Bill_Irvine gives Jones a telling look

<Mrs_Irwin> Well, my son, I still have something nice for after breakfast...

<Rev_Jones> And if you don't mind I will take a stroll around. Thank you for your food Mrs Irvine.

<Bill_Irvine> I'll be back soon, mom...

<MrsIrvine> Don't stay out too long. I will prepare a nice lunch for you two boys!

Bill_Irvine gets up and walks over to the plane, knowing a discussion would only cost time...

Rev_Jones collects his hat and follows.

<La_ST> (Nate: The radar shows the blimp, so I guess you want to comm Bill first)

<Bill_Irvine> Something's on the Radar. Let's check it.

Bill_Irvine enters the plane and checks the radar's readings

<La_ST> (Bill: It's pretty big. But you know the form of a blimp ^_^)

<Bill_Irvine> Phew... Dammit! They could've called instead of causing a panic.

Rev_Jones moves slowly after the huge meal.

<Bill_Irvine> You aint used to a good breakfast, eh?

<Rev_Jones> The others are arriving then? What a palaver.

<Rev_Jones> You just fed me enough to feed a whole Welsh family.

<Bill_Irvine> I still wonder if mom will be glad to cook a good meal for everyone, or if she will get mad...

<Rev_Jones> Well if we all divide our portions I am sure there will be enough for everyone.

<Rev_Jones> Someone will have a device to wash dishes too I bet.

<Bill_Irvine> Washing dishes isn't the problem. We are rich... It's not dividing the portions... It's just the masses that arrive

Bill_Irvine grins

<Rev_Jones> What about the animals?

<Bill_Irvine> Space shouldn't be a problem either

<La_ST> (Himiko, don't you hail Bill? Or do you want him to shoot you as greeting? :D )

<Rev-Jones> (Or the automatic ground to air missile defence system)

<Himiko> (Okay, shooting is bad... he did invite me *G*)

<Nathan_Raiser> (Besides his parents installed AA missles?)

<Nathan_Raiser> (I've heard of texan violence but this is ridculous :))

<Rev-Jones> (Damn! Now I want to run a Captain Scarlet game. SIG)

<La_ST> (Heh)

<La_ST> (So now the zeppeling continues approaching...)

Bill_Irvine checks for incoming calls

<Himiko> Ladies and Gentlemen, pack your things together we have arrived at our destination and will set in for landing.

Bill_Irvine hails the incoming blimp

<Himiko> Hello, Bill.

<Bill_Irvine> (Radio) So it *is* you. Hell, dammit. it could have been anyone...

<La_ST> (Hey, I want to get the group together! Then you can try to get on the trail of Mr.Irvine)

<Rev-Jones> (Radio) *burp* oh sorry

<Himiko> (Radio) Who else would fly a blimb straight towards your place. Okay, where can I put her down??

<Bill_Irvine> (Radio) Look for a place without animals and oil drills and if you don't want to walk half the day somewhere near the main buildings

<Himiko> (Radio) If you send away the people in that little square between the main buildings, I can set it down there.....

<Bill_Irvine> (Radio) Ok. As you heard we had a damn good breakfast *g*

<Himiko> (Radio) Putting her down now, anyone not gone might be squished, I need to have her on the ground to check her thoroughly..

Bill_Irvine runs out to clear the landing space

<Rev-Jones> And now I can't get up again Bill.

Rev-Jones looks out of the cockpit. "Urrrrrr."

<Bill_Irvine> Ok folks! Out of the way! Some friends of mine are heading in!

Himiko sets her large Zeppelin down, hoping that it has about 250 square meter area she can put it down in....

<La_ST> (The Ranch boys and workers scurry around and out of the way)

Nathan_Raiser looks out at the racnh and thinks that there is quite some truth to the pereception of texans... especially the rich bastard ones...

<Himiko> (Internal com) Ladies and gentlemen we have arrived...

Himiko gets out of her ship pretty fast..

<La_ST> (The Ranch really looks pretty wealthy, probably right out of some TV series about rich Texans

Nathan_Raiser follows with Bob closely in tow... While Nate seems uspicous and is lookign around him with a war eye, Bob seems to be thrileld back in the states

MrsIrvine stands at the steps of the main building and stares in amazement at the huge zeppelin

<MrsIrvine> (Shouting) William Irvine III !!!

Himiko is walking around her Zeppelin checking the outside hull for anything that shouldn't be on it..

<MrsIrvine> Where is this drat boy hiding again?

_David_ also exits the zep.

MrsIrvine stands in the door, arms akimbo and looks for her son. The ranch workers close in on the zeppelin curiously.

<_David_> (/me does the russian dance, arms akimbo *g*)

MrsIrvine looks at the newcomers.

<MrsIrvine> And who might you all be? Also friends of my little boy?

<_David_> Mmm, oh sure, sure

<La_ST> (Bill: Your mom called out for you on top of her lungs)

Himiko is paying too much attention to the hull to notice this... checking every centimeter for stuff that doesn't belong..

Nathan_Raiser looks a bit confused as he was half expectign a shootout with a horde of rustlers... who else could have touched someone who spawned Bill?

<La_ST> (Bill: You really should hurry out of the B52 and introduce your other friends)

<Himiko> (The big problem goes if I have to get up on the blimb itself..

<Bill_Irvine> (I'm out. I cleared the field)

<MrsIrvine> William T. Irvine III. Would you *please* introduce your friends to me?

<Bill_Irvine> Coming Mom! Coooommmiiiing!

Bill_Irvine runs over to the blimp and his mom

MrsIrvine still stands there, arms akimbo and looks at the new guys

<Rev-Jones> (He was out)

<Rev-Jones> (It was only the Rev having problems moving...)

<La_ST> (Rev, well, you just shouldn't eat so much :D )

<Bill_Irvine> Well mom...

<Bill_Irvine> (Who's there now?)

<MrsIrvine> So?

<La_ST> (Himiko, Nathan, Bob... - I assume Rhi is left in the Zep)

<La_ST> (David)

Nathan_Raiser smiles and extends his hand to Bill's mom

MrsIrvine takes it and shakes it with a firm grip

<Nathan_Raiser> It's a pleasure to meet you... Bill's ravings about your kitchen and commentary of your beuty was oe of the rare things that kept us going back in 'Nam

<Bill_Irvine> Mom, those are Nate a old brother in war from Vietnam, Kimiko and Bob

<MrsIrvine> Well, if you are friends of my boy, then I bid you welcome...

_Bob_ is a tall black man who seems a bit out of place, but he is obviously happy to be here

<_Bob_> It's nice to meet you Mrs. Irvine...

MrsIrvine nods.

<MrsIrvine> Welcome, Mr.....?

_David_ coughs

Himiko is completely ignoring this and is slowly walking around the hull of her blimb..

MrsIrvine looks to him.

_David_ looks at Bill

<_David_> My name is David Pietersen, nice to meet you mrs Irvine

<MrsIrvine> Ah, yes, Mr.Pietersen. I bid you welcome as well

<Bill_Irvine> Oh, sorry. Still out of breath form clearing the field

<MrsIrvine> So, why don't you all come in

<Nathan_Raiser> Excuse me, Mrs. Irvine... Ann... Himiko is very carign about her ship and she needs to be sure there wasn't a puncture... she and I will join you soon

Nathan_Raiser smiles with a smile too big

<MrsIrvine> I have just cleared the breakfast table, but I think I could make a somewhat earlier lunch for you all

MrsIrvine looks to Nate

<MrsIrvine> Well, of course. I need some minutes to prepare some lunch after all

<MrsIrvine> Just take your time...

Nathan_Raiser moves rather fast towars the blimp and stnads behind Anna helping her look but realyl faking a smile now as he talks through his teeth turned toward th blimp...

<_David_> If you need any help ...

<Nathan_Raiser> You do know you could hate at least said hi before you got to your pretty little plaything?

<_David_> (Bye)

MrsIrvine ushers everybodyinto the main building of the ranch

<MrsIrvine> (Except for Himiko and Nate)

<_David_> (That last bit was clearly to MrsIrvine though :) )

Himiko mutters something about someone bugging her airship

MrsIrvine tells the maid and cook to see to a *proper* lunch ^_^)

<Nathan_Raiser> Are you sure it's on the outside?

<Nathan_Raiser> Maybe it's from oen of the comms we took from the raiders?

<Himiko> I'm just making sure that it isn't..

<Bill_Irvine> I guess you will have a great meal today. Not somthing sparse but a good american lunch

<Himiko> If it's one of the comms than we can rule out them activating automatically.

<Himiko> Which means that one of us can't be trusted..

<Himiko> As soon as I'm done with the outside, I'll be going through the inside..

<MrsIrvine> So, my boy, who is this asian girl that doesn't seem to know proper etiquette? I hope not your new girl-friend?

<Bill_Irvine> No mom. This is Himiko. She's is worried about her blimp

<Nathan_Raiser> Can we do that later?

<Nathan_Raiser> Bill seemed embarresed enoug has it is with all of us dropping on his mom...

<Himiko> And what if whomever this beacon is sending to comes here??

<Nathan_Raiser> And we still don't know what's up with his dad...

<Nathan_Raiser> Well it's off now

<MrsIrvine> Bill: Well, she really show know that it would have been proper to get introduced first!

<Nathan_Raiser> So all they possibly hve is a vector...

MrsIrvine looks sternly towards Bill

_David_ chuckles

<Nathan_Raiser> Besides did we manage to get any sort of recording of the singal?

<Bill_Irvine> Mom... You know lives could be in danger if the blimp fails...

<Nathan_Raiser> We could use that and try seeing what sort of data it contained...

<MrsIrvine> Hm. Well. That may be true. But a proper lunch first definitly can't hurt

<Himiko> We didn't..

Himiko sighs as she finishes scanning the outside hull of her ship..

<Himiko> You know... your... friend Skywarp caused quite some damage...

<La_ST> (Nothing there, Himiko)

<Himiko> (I guessed so already)

<Nathan_Raiser> Huh?

<Nathan_Raiser> How do you mean?

<Bill_Irvine> Himiko... Mind a good meal? Spare the work for later... Eh?

<Himiko> You let him shoot the entire backdoor out...

Himiko sighs

<Himiko> Yes, Bill, I'm coming..

Himiko sighs..

Nathan_Raiser rubs her shoulder gently...

<Nathan_Raiser> Listen... we'l get to it...

<Nathan_Raiser> Besides it's not that warp was tryign to destroy your ship

<Nathan_Raiser> Most of the damage is repaired...

<Himiko> Ah well...

<Himiko> Let's see what's for lunch...

MrsIrvine rumbles around in the kitchen with the maid and the cook to besure that everything is perfect

<Bill_Irvine> So let's see... come along and enjoy the meal

Bill_Irvine walks over to the house, seeing that the others follow

<_David_> (Mmm food)

Himiko follows inside..

<MrsIrvine> It takes only a short while and the table is overcrowded with food: Steaks, potatoes and more

<_David_> (And more meat *g*)

<La_ST> (A phone rings in the back of the house)

Rev-Jones watches the group traipse inside and closes his eyes.

<MrsIrvine> Please excuse me for a moment.

<MrsIrvine> Help your self.

<MrsIrvine> I hope it is enough for you all...

Himiko looks at the food on the table..

<La_ST> (It is actually enough for about twice the people)

<Bill_Irvine> Ah... A good meal!

<Himiko> (Any green vegetables?)

<Himiko> (Or other colors... meaning no meat..)

<_David_> Ah, a good healty meal.

<MrsIrvine> (Yup, some. But Potatoes and steaks have the advantage in amount)

_David_ eats a decent amount of potatoes and meat

Bill_Irvine eats a fine steak with potatoes

MrsIrvine returns to the dining room

MrsIrvine looks somewhat worried

Nathan_Raiser sits down after helping Himiko seat herself and then he sits down next to her and joins the rest with the meal

Himiko eats a very small ammount of potatoes with a larger ammount of vegetables and leaves aside all the meat stuff (including the gravy)

_David_ nods to Bill

<MrsIrvine> William, I just got a call for your fathers secretary. She told me she didn't manage to reach him either...

<Bill_Irvine> Hmm... Did she have any idea where he could be?

Nathan_Raiser eats delaying any commentary and listening

<MrsIrvine> Well, he was overseas... He wanted to inspect some oilmining company in Europe - they had some new methods...

_Bob_ digs in with a realyl overzealos attitude towards eating...

_Bob_ digs in

<MrsIrvine> Well, I think you might call the headquarters of Irvine Oil and ask for details there

<MrsIrvine> But the secretary seemed somehow upset

<Bill_Irvine> I will check it out, thanks mom

<MrsIrvine> But you definitely should eat up first!

<Himiko> Oil is interesting stuff, I remember working on a chemical solvent that disappears quickly after it has done it's work...

<MrsIrvine> He is away for 3 days now, then 30 minutes will not make that much a difference

MrsIrvine looks to Himiko in surprise

<Himiko> The chemical could be used to clear oil spills in an expedious and environmently safe way...

<MrsIrvine> Well, that sounds interesting for sure

<Himiko> The disadvantage was that it also had the tendency to disolve all other organic materials..

<MrsIrvine> But don't you want a little steak? You look decidedly too thin!

<Himiko> No, thank you madam.

<MrsIrvine> Ah well. But then some more of the salad?

<Himiko> No thank you, I do not like bacon much..

<MrsIrvine> Hm. Do you want something else? I do not allow any of my guests to get up hungry from my table!

<Himiko> It's alright, I have had my fill..

Himiko smiles at her.

MrsIrvine smiles back

Himiko bows

<MrsIrvine> Well, then I'm content

<Himiko> So, your father, your husband is missing and the last we know is that he left for Europe..

MrsIrvine nods

<Himiko> Was this a planned trip?

<MrsIrvine> I do not know the details, but he wanted to check on an oil company that invented some new methods ...

<MrsIrvine> He called me just before the trip that he would return in two or three days max

<Himiko> Then it seems that he would make an appointment..

Nathan_Raiser is listening and looking around with interest..

<MrsIrvine> Well, I'm sure his secretary has all the info

<MrsIrvine> She is a very thorough girl

<Himiko> How does your husband usually pay for his bills?

<MrsIrvine> Via credit cards

<Himiko> And do you use the same credit card account?

<Himiko> Or at least know his credit card number?

<MrsIrvine> Well, yes, we don't have any secrets...

<Himiko> Okay... then it's easy to track your husband, and find out where he disappeared, or at least where it was logical he disappeared..

<MrsIrvine> Well, I have the bills here... I can tell you in a moment....

Himiko is looking a bit amazed..

<MrsIrvine> Well, the private stuff he kept here

<MrsIrvine> How can you use the number to track him?

<MrsIrvine> Isn't that usually a police job?

<Himiko> Of course..

<Himiko> But you can ... lie :)

<MrsIrvine> Well, excuse me for a sec, I'll fetch the number

<Himiko> Bill.. it's best if you call the credit card company and pretend you are your father..

MrsIrvine runs towards the back of the house again where her husband set up an office to use while at home

<Himiko> Then tell them you lost your credit card.

<Himiko> Tell them you do not have the time to wait for a new one to arrive, so you rather want to go looking for it first.

<Himiko> Then give them all information they ask, and you should know that without hesitation, and they might tell you where the last payment was made..

<Himiko> (Cinematically appropriate... not exactly real world appropriate though, but you might still get away with it... if you sound honest enough)

<Bill_Irvine> Well, let's first see what goes on and if we get any clues.

MrsIrvine returns with the number scribbled down on a slip of paper

<MrsIrvine> Well, here's the number and the expiration date....

<Himiko> This should work..

<Himiko> Bill, make the call.

Himiko is looking a bit in wonder..

Bill_Irvine checks the date and the number, to memorize them as good as he can to not seem unsecure on the phone

<Himiko> (Btw, you could use this story as a good focus for "Magick" too)

<Bill_Irvine> (Just have Mind 1)

<Himiko> (You could use that for "quick thinking")

<La_ST> (Dingo told me he did that procedure once, so he'll do the bank clerk)

<_UTB_> (Go ahead, make the call)

<Bill_Irvine> (Umm.. Great. I don't know anything about this stuff)

<La_ST> (Btw, that'll be Manip+Subterfuge, diff depending on how well you talk your way out :)

<_UTB_> (You could follow what I suggested earlier..)

Bill_Irvine dials the number of the credit card company and prepares, to mimic his father (Mind 1 to raise concentration)

<_UTB_> Union of Texas Bank, Mike Lawry, how may I help you?

<La_ST> (Ok, no need to roll for that)

<Bill_Irvine> William Irvine, good day

<_UTB_> Good day to you too, Mr. Irvine *sound of typing*

<_UTB_> How may I help you, Sir?

<Bill_Irvine> (What was it all about? Losing his credit card and? Geez... Not fully here today)

<MrsIrvine> (Losing the cred card and wanting to check on it before ordering a new one)

<_David_> (<Fx:sound of crickets chirping>)

<_David_> (Hint: I lost my card, and I wondered where I last used it <queue: long list of person identifying questions>)

<Bill_Irvine> (Check on it? Umm.. I have none, so I don't know anything about them ^_^)

<La_ST> (-_- Okay, we *can* shorten this by rolling Manip+Subterfuge, diff 8 then...)

<_David_> (Aaaarg)

Bill_Irvine rolled 3d10 dice and got: 10, 4, 8

<La_ST> (I would have preferred to play it out, but ST-Logger seems to have decided you managed anyway)

<La_ST> (You get to know that the last time the card was used to pay for some snacks in Reykjavik at the airport)

<_David_> (Again: GAH)

<Bill_Irvine> The credit card was last used in Reykjavik to buy some snacks... So he stopped over there

<Himiko> Reykyavik... snacks....

<_David_> When was that?

<Himiko> Does your father make a habit of snacking??

<La_ST> (3 days ago)

<Bill_Irvine> That was three days ago

<Nathan_Raiser> Ineresting...

<Nathan_Raiser> Someoen should call a certain... associate... we have in those parts...

<Bill_Irvine> Yup... Does anyone have her number?

<Himiko> I.. dropped her off at her place..

<Nathan_Raiser> Well Davey here tracked her down once...

<Nathan_Raiser> Oh... that would be easier...

<Himiko> But Bill, Mrs Irvine is William a habitual snacker??

Nathan_Raiser looks sheepishly

<_David_> Bill, does your father have a habit of snacking?

<MrsIrvine> Well, he has a healthy appetite

<MrsIrvine> I think it would not be unusual for him to get something real after the meagre rations in a plane

<Himiko> That means that he indeed disappeared in Reykyavik or directly after arriving on his destination.

<_David_> What was his destination?

<Nathan_Raiser> And snacks are nto meagre rations?

<La_ST> (Well, dunno what the credit card company puts down as "snacks")

<La_ST> (On bill things are sometimes labled strangely)

<_David_> What was his destination?

<MrsIrvine> He wanted to get to some oil company.

<MrsIrvine> I think they might have some platform somewhere out there

<MrsIrvine> I'm afraid, I'm not so good in geography outside the US

<_David_> To what airport was he supposed to leave from reykyavik?

<MrsIrvine> Well, best call his secretary

<_David_> Right then

<MrsIrvine> I think she would have his schedule jotted down

<MrsIrvine> Moment, I can give you her number....

<_David_> Ok

MrsIrvine again disappears to the office of W.Irvine II

<_David_> (Numbers are exchanged, calls are made, and we know the next airport)

<La_ST> (Yup. He was supposed to get a heli and fly to an oil platform not too far from Iceland

<Himiko> Then I think we should visit that oil platform, does anyone have it's location..

<La_ST> (I just decree there is one, I'm no oil expert ^_^)

<Himiko> A blimb is a pretty handy vehicle to go to an oil platform.

Himiko smiles

<_David_> Moment, Himiko I'll find out.

<La_ST> (Said, done. The platform's locations are not secret after all)

_David_ gives Himiko the coordinates.

<Himiko> Okay...

<Himiko> Bill, your plane wouldn't have enough space to land there, so what will you do??

<_David_> Should an other group go to reykjavik airport to investigate from there?

<Bill_Irvine> What about docking it, or better parking it in your blimp as before?

<Himiko> Well, you can park it on the blimb, but the added drag will make this a pretty slow trip..

<Nathan_Raiser> Hmmm I can take up to two people extra with warp...

<Nathan_Raiser> We would neither be recognized nor located...

<Nathan_Raiser> That is assuming we need actual infiltration and your dad is not on a binge somewhere...

Nathan_Raiser is glad his mom isn't here so he feels free to say this

MrsIrvine returns, this time with a black notebook.

<Himiko> Then he would have used his credit card to pay for drinks...

MrsIrvine jots down the number of the secretary and gives it to David

<MrsIrvine> Here you are!

<Himiko> Now what do we do..

<Himiko> Do we go to the platform and from there to Reykyavik..

<_David_> Thanks

<Himiko> Which isn't too much of a hassle..

<_David_> Right, off we go then

<Himiko> Or do we split up and send one group to Reykyavik and the other to the platform?

<_David_> Well, splitting up might not be the most prudent course of action

<Bill_Irvine> Divide and conquer could be what happens then.

<Nathan_Raiser> That could work

<Nathan_Raiser> However we should be carefull

<Nathan_Raiser> We don't wanna run in with guns blazing untill we can verify what's up...

<Himiko> Oil platforms...

<Himiko> Hmm...

Himiko has a nasty glint in her eyes..

Nathan_Raiser looks at her with shock in his eyes and has the look of "DON'T DARE" in your eyes

<Nathan_Raiser> (His)

<Himiko> Well, I think that the oil platform is a good place to start looking..

<Himiko> Splitting up will hardly do anything..

<Himiko> Since Reykyavik is just a short hop over from the platform..

<Himiko> So....

<Himiko> What is it going to be people..

<_David_> I agree Himiko

<Himiko> It's not my dad that is missing..

<Nathan_Raiser> Hey you can always count on me... as for your dad... you are the one that should knwo what to do...

<Bill_Irvine> Well... Lemme think... Let's check Reykjavik first, since we can perhaps get some backup from there.

<Himiko> Okay.. if you say so..

<Nathan_Raiser> You know

<Nathan_Raiser> If he was heading to the well I think that may be a better palce to start

<Nathan_Raiser> We can try and contact Helga to meet us there... she surley knows the area...

<Bill_Irvine> But we shouldn't head there directly but meet up somewhere. You know: Don't enter hostily territory without knowing it

<La_ST> (So, you going now?)

<Himiko> Well I'll prepare for liftoff..

<Bill_Irvine> Should I park on the fly, or do you want to tow my B52 in?

<Nathan_Raiser> Your choice...

<Nathan_Raiser> I'm heading to check the weapons on Warp...

<Nathan_Raiser> I want to be on the safe side...

<La_ST> (Reykjavik airport only has 3 runways, BTW)

<Himiko> Your choice Bill..

<Bill_Irvine> I guess it's safer to just tow it in.

<Himiko> Okay..

<Himiko> (We GO NOW)

<Nathan_Raiser> (Is it just me or is there a certain stilness in the air ;))

<_David_> (Grmbl)

<_David_> (. . .)

<Himiko> (Same sentiment)

<La_ST> (Well, I can't virtually carry you there...)

<Himiko> (Did everybody but me, qadn and Asmo decide to fall asleep on the keyboard??)

<La_ST> (Hm. Let's just get to Reykjavik, and then we can close with a c liffhanger

Bill_Irvine tows his B52 into the blimp and secures it

<Himiko> (Under)

<Himiko> (Not in..)

<Himiko> (The hangar isn't big enough for a B52... an F16 okay, a tank or 2 okay, but not a B52)

<Himiko> All aboard, destination Reykyavik, we will arive in aproximately about 10 hours...

<La_ST> (Fastforward to Reykjavik)

<La_ST> (You get Iceland into view, and the island looks very impressive, with rocks and some steaming clefts...

Himiko steers and aproaches Reykyavk. From the bridge the wonderfull vulcanos, glaciers, and steamclouds that cover the Island can be seen.

<La_ST> The town is pretty much a standard town, though

<Himiko> (80% perent of all icelanders live in Reykyavik..)

<La_ST> (Yup. Only think of major interest :) )

<_David_> (Which makes it _big_ and not standard ^_^)

<_David_> (Anyways, MOVING ON, we arrive at the airport)

<La_ST> (Well, there are not so many Icelanders, AFAIK)

<La_ST> (Anyone trying to contact Helga? She doesn't know you are there after all)

<La_ST> (Btw, Reykjaviks population is around 113,000 -_- Half the size of Oberhausenn...)

<_David_> I'll call Helga

<Himiko> (And Iceland is 230.000 (in 2004 according to the CIA Factbook)

<Doc_Helga> (Via comm) DAvid? Thank god you are coming here...

<Himiko> Phone is over there.. it hooks up to the satelite system and is untraceable..

<_David_> *Ring* *ring*

<Doc_Helga> Hello? David?

Doc_Helga sounds very distressed

<Doc_Helga> I got some very disturbing radar echos....

<_David_> Hello Helga, we are in Iceland

<_David_> Mmm how so?

<Doc_Helga> Well, I monitor the area here...

<Doc_Helga> And it seems there are some people on the prowl...

<Doc_Helga> I heard on the news that some people got missing...

<_David_> What sort of radar echo's?

<_David_> Well, Bill's dad is missing and his CC was last used at reykjavik airport, so we are here

<_David_> We could help each other, these things might not be unrelated

<Doc_Helga> Well, there were many more planes than usual over Reykjavik, and this sounds weird

<_David_> What sounds weird?

<Doc_Helga> And there was some meeting of higher ups of some oil firms, and it seems as if they goit abducted by terrorists.

<_David_> Godverdomme

<Doc_Helga> Of course it was tried to keep it under cover, but I got some of the information from police channels

<_David_> This is bad, where are you? we are coming over

<Doc_Helga> I'll send you a signal viathe covert channel

<Doc_Helga> So please come that we can discuss this and what to do about it.

<_David_> Oh and you don't happed to know a convenient place to land a large blimp?

<_David_> Somewhere ... private?

<Doc_Helga> I have the impression there is more about this "terrorist thing"...

Nathan_Raiser leans on the wall in the back of the room and his eyes widen... he then goes back to the great room and grabs a large black trunk and opens it... he takes a colt out of it and checks the clips before grabbing a maller machinegun and setting it aside... then he hecks if his old flak jacket still has holes or did he rmember to take the new one...

<Doc_Helga> Well, you might land a bit apart. My lab is quite isolated a bit away from the city.
