Wagon take him in. Lone Star was mighty interested in him, so had left a
guard around his room. The party decided to break him out of the
hospital. The attempt failed by the way, and we all ended up owing our
existences to a God who saved our skins.
Anyway, on to the botched attempt.
Zoom was my rigger character, and he decided to go in the hospital to
scope out the security, ways in, ways out, etc. He went to his fixer, and
paid through the nose for a Media Pass. So here I am walking around the
hospital, trying to find where Crusher, our injured sammie bud was kept.
I finally get pissed off, and I ask a nurse. She tells me where to go,
and I go there. Four Lone Star guards were guarding the room. Well, I
make like a reporter, and start asking questions. One askes me who I was,
and I whip out my Media Pass. He swipes it through a machine, which
immediately begins to beep, and lights flash. I'm arrested. They take me
to a down the hall, and into a small room. They handcuff my arms to the
arms of a chair. They ask me a few questions, then go back to guarding
the room of my bud. Hmmmm.... I ask the Gm if the chair is bolted to the
ground. No he says. Only my arms are cuffed? Yes he says. Which way do
the doors open. Inward he says. So my character stands up, and hops
closer to the doors. He waits for a while. Eventually, a guard come, and
opens the door.....only to have my character ram his head into the guards
stomache. A couple of hops, and my character is in the hall. A yell from
down the hall indicates that the Lone Stars have seen me. My character is
frantically hopping down the hall, looking for a stairwell. (My thought
was I could fall, break the chair, try to ignore the pain, and get away.)
It could of worked, except for one thing. One of the other party members
had gotten bored, and had entered the hospital. He saw me hopping down
the hall, the Lone Stars just behind me, and couldn't resist tripping my
character. Down I go. The cops grab me, and set me upright, and
congragulate the 'upstanding citizen' for his courageous effort in
preventing a criminal from escaping. As the cops drag me away, the
'upstanding citizen' couldn't resist standing in front of my character,
and flashing a huge grin. I flash a huge grin as I let rip with the
sub-machine I had in the cyberarm that no-one knew I had. I hear a clunk,
and the world goes dark. (I didn't kill him, but he needed emergency surgery!)
Lone Star was going to move Crusher, so the party had to hurry. They
stormed the place, and got their asses kicked.
