(Into your view flashes the inside of the elevator, the team is somewhat
squashed in, and the two limp forms of the security guards dont help
matters much, the level indicator on the door is not operating, and you
notice Doomsday watching his watch, as he starts to speak.)

Doomsday: 8,7,6,5,4,3

Fenris: Showtime!!

Doomsday: 1,0 ....

(The doors to the elevator slide open, you see that the elevator opens
into a huge room, panels and terminals are everywhere along the sides of
the room, there is enough high tech stuff in this room to land a ship on
the moon. Sitting at various terminals are operaters, about 6 in all,
while scattered around the room are a total of 8 guards. About 3 metres
from the elevator entrance is a striking elf, wearing a business suit
with the Star Financial logo he is talking heatedly with another elf,
this one garbed in a straight black stealth-suit with Tir Nan Og service
patches.

Then the pair turn towards the elevator...)

Fenris: Oh drek, BREAK!!!

(Unsurprisingly Doomsday is the first to react, he leaps forward,
punching the 'suit' and swinging a stun rod at the black clad elf.
Surprisingly however the operative is out of the way before the blow
connects, diving, and as he comes to his feet a katana appears in his
hand, you are unsure where it came from. The opponent square off against
each other as Tarkis and Whisper rush past towards the still recovering
security guards.

Fenris casually walks toward the 'suit' who is regaining his feet as
Zarkon yells warning to Doomsday.)

Zarkon: Og ninja is a phy ad, suits a mage...

Fenris: I know, hello Mr. Gillian, nice to meet you.

Gillian (the suit): You're the shadow that's been following me? You're
going to regret that, but first you're going to tell me who hired you?

Fenris: Oh dear, I was hoping that you would be able to answer my
questions concerning that.

(Behind Fenris two pair of forms begin to appear, he appears oblivious as
two salamanders and two slyph assume material form, the slyphs head
towards the camera (which you guess is in Zarkons helmet) while the
salamander throw themselves at Fenris. One smashes into something and is
thrown back, however the other knocks the ork into Gillian and over
badly burning his left arm, but also distracting Gillian. As the two
slyphs close in they to waver and stop as (you assume) Zarkons elementals
protect him.

From the distance you hear gunfire, probably directed at Whisper or
Tarkis, however you vision centres on Gillian as he rises and turns
toward you. The helmet wavers for a second, Zarkon just did something,
you're not sure what, as he takes aim with the narcojet rifle, then a
burning ball appears in Gillian hand and streaks towards you, you flinch
as the fire washes around some barrier, a foot or so from Zarkon and he
fires needles at Gillian, who staggers, then drops. However you notice
that a slyph having finished off you're elementals begins approaching you
again...

Before it can do anything it screams and fragments, you see Fenris behind
arm outstreched and sporting a host of minor burns shrug.

Zarkon looks around and you see the security guards, all of them out for
the count, scattered around the room. Doomsday, bleeding all over the
floor, stands erect, in victory over the black clad elf, but you realise
it cost him dearly, Whisper and Tarkis both appear a bit ragged and
bloody but you're unsure of who's blood it is.)

Fenris: Tarkis, your probably the most knowledgable about this stuff, I
want a full inventory of the equipment in the room, Zarkon, help
Doomsday, Whisper, your guard.

(The respective people nod quickly and move, silently, then breaking the
silence Fenris begins singing, a song with power, for his arm heals
itself before you're eyes. The ork then moves off to check that all the
forms are indeed, still alive.)
