There is a flash from another PDC camera. This one appears to have come from Bob. For an instant you see that everyone is now in their seat. Boris is holding his laser pistol (but you think it's the toy one he used earlier. Then again you can't be entirely sure. You only catch a glimpse.) As things go dark again you hear what sounds like a small crash against the wall of the transbot.

Spoiler for Boris

Spoiler:
You are surprised to feel your PDC jerked out of your hand, seemingly by some unseen force. You suspect that the sound described above was the sound of our PDC smashing into the wall of the transbot. You are concerned for its well being. You suspect it shattered from the impact.


"Destruction of the computer's property is a treasonous act as well"

"Luckily the images are transmitted nearly instantaneously to IntSec once taken TRAITOR"

Spoiler:
I attempt to find Horton in the flash of the other PDC and grab him, and hurl him headfirst against a pole or the bulkhead of the transport tube


Spoiler for Boris

Spoiler:
Regarding your previous attempt to plant commie propaganda under Bob's satchel

Sleight of Hand :1d20 4=15

You do it pretty quietly. You doubt he heard you.

Unarmed Combat: 1d20 9=22

You stumble toward Horton and grab a hold of him. You haul him out off his seat. and send him sprawling. It sounds like he just crashed into Logan because you hear Logan's voice call out and Logan was sitting across form Horton.

Spoiler for Horton

Spoiler:
You feel someone grab hold of you and yank you out of your seat. You tumble across the transbot and crash into Logan who was sitting across from you. It is still dark, so you can't see anything.

Spoiler for Logan

Spoiler:
You hear scuffling. Suddenly someone crashes into you and you can't help but call out.

Everyone hears the sounds of two men scuffling in the middle of isle. Then Logan calls out. It sounds like someone just crashed into him!


Man, I'm red-handed. What to do?

<Horton puts the fists to whoever grabbed him and fights like a soon to be dead man.>


Spoiler for Horton

Spoiler:
You also still have the can of red spray paint. It is considered insubordination to be dirty. If one was covered in spray paint...

Unarmed: 1d20 6=15

You struggle to get your bearings. You suspect your face is burried in Logan's crotchal region. You also suspect (by way he just screamed like a girl) that you planted your hand in that same region while trying to get yourself turned around. You attack the darkness (that line sounds familiar. hmmm.) hoping to hit someone . Your fist wooshes through the air in front of you.

Spoiler for Logan

Spoiler:
You feel a hand painfully push into your crotch. You scream like a girl.

Everyone hears what sounds like Logan scream like a girl

For DM's eyes only

Spoiler:
1-Tru-G0D sends the following message to the computer: "Fight in the Transport Tube. Will apprehend whoever is responsible. One of the suspects exhibiting mannerisms incongruous with his apparent gender, a clear sign of communist symphathy in my opinion. Glory to the Computer.

Though he has been quiet the entire trip thus far, this recent outburst of girliness is getting on 1-Tru-G0D's nerves.

"Look here stop that! And who's the girly man!"

For the DM's eyes only

Spoiler:
1-Tru-G0D got his hand firmly on his pistol which is hidden inside his coat's pocket. He will not make any gesture or movement to indicate such to the others. He will shout through his pocket if he is met with any violence.


"shut up Tru and remove that traitor from this train."

Spoiler:
waits for the lights to rejoin scuffle, but I'm in a stance to react if anyone comes near


no true insult implied tru, just playing the character ;)


"Come here and make me."

For the DM's eyes only

Spoiler:
Any aggressive act from Boris like assaulting me and I blast him; I then claim self-defense to all and sundry and I label him a commie agent. Why else would a person attack a Troubleshooter if he were not a commie? Think about it.

Apology accepted. :D


DM eyes only:

Spoiler:
Hellya! Spray whoever is in front of me.


Spoiler:
Adds Tru to "The List"....since commies make lists

*seethes about his lost PDC*

Spoiler:
did it sound like it got shattered, or just crashed against the wall?


Male Clone Troubleshooter/ Red Lvl

Tim stands and shuffles away from the sound of the fight, approximately far enough to stay out of kicking distance. He draws his laser in one hand, holds his PDC in the other and begins taking pictures of the fight with it.

Looks for his PDC in the flash from Tim's PDC

"I need some happy happy pills, this is stressing me out."

"Keep recording Tim, for posterities sake, The computer will want to see what's going on"

Spoiler:
I look for my PDC, then look for my satchel.


GM

Spoiler:
In the darkness, Logan drops his plastic smile. In fact, he allows his face to register his true feelings. Anger. Frustration. Hate. Paranoia. And dare I say it? Unhappiness.

Logan decides that he hates Boris-R-LOF-1 for his pathetic dependence on happiness drugs. Weak.

Realizing that Boris's admission of unhappiness is treason, Logan decides not to report it because the only thing Logan hates worse than Boris are the Happiness laws enforced by the Computer. Indeed, it's those very laws that made him hate Boris.

One of them, Logan muses to himself, Is that Pro-Tech bastard and I'm going to find out who and fry him! But I must be patient. Yes, patient.

Logan takes out his PDC and start taking pictures so he can see what's going on. He tries to get a look at the symbol that is painted on the floor.

Now, I'd like to induce some paranoia with meaningless spoilers.

And then...

Spoiler:
Meaningless spoiler.

After that, I'd like to...

Spoiler:
Meaningless spoiler.

And shove it up his...

Spoiler:
Meaningless spoiler

Scarab Sages

taps his foot impatiently

Spoiler:
waits for the lights to come back on


You hear the sound an aresol spray can, and Boris shouts out.

Spoiler for Boris

Spoiler:
This happens just before you start looking on the ground for your PDC. You feel spray paint blast you. You suspect it's Horton.

A few seconds later the lights come on. Here's what you see: Horton is standing in the middle of the isle with his can of spray paint. Boris is staggering about looking for his PDC. He has a big spray paint mark on his chest. The spray paint is red, but is still quite clearly visible on his red jumpsuit (they're different shades). There is the start of some sort of society symbol spray painted on the floor. Boris's PDC is also lying on the floor on the opposite side of the car from where he was sitting. It looks damaged. The orange citizen is still in his seat, but has a completely horrified look on his face.


Male

"You! Traitor to the Computer!", he says with an angry smile as he leaps towards Horton.

Spoiler:
I will try to tackle the traitor

"My beautiful new jumpsuit!!!"

"More treasonous activiy from you Horton? I hope your next clone is not so treasonous"

Spoiler:
I attempt to wrest the can from Horton's hand and attempt to kill him with it by spraying it up his nose! LoL


With a big plastic smile, Logan, contacts the Computer, "Oh majestic Computer, this is Logan-R-RUN-1 reporting an act of treason. Standing before me is Horton-R-TPK-1 with a piece of equipment that he does not have the proper clearance for. This is clearly an act of treason."

Logan then snaps a picture of Horton for the Computer to see. He also takes a picture of the partial Secret Society symbol painted on the floor.

"He is also cleary the perpetrator of the heinous act of vandalism done to the floor of this trans-bot. Insubordination!"

"Also, if that symbol means he belongs to a certain group that I dare not mention, then he is clearly a member of said group. Treason!"

"All hail the Computer!"

Spoiler:
Logan curses at himself for giving the hated Computer honorifics, but a clone must do what he must to survive.


Both Bob and Boris jump Horton. Boris attempts to grab the spray can out of Horton's hand. While Bob pummels him with his bare fists.

Spoiler for Logan

Spoiler:
As Bob jumps up you notice that there were some pamphlets under his satchel. They appear to be Commie propaganda pamphlets

Spoiler for Tru

Spoiler for Tim

"Computer, I regret that I must also report Boris-R-Loff-1 for insubordination. His uniform is sloppy!"

ACK!

Spoiler:
Now i'll instead attempt to have Horton spray Logan during the struggle


*Logan snaps picture of Boris' sloppy uniform for the Computer.*

"Computer, I must also inform you that Bob-R-DTE-1 appears to be a traitor as well. He has in his possession what appears to be pamphlets of Communist propaganda!"

*Logan tries to snap pictures of the pamphlets for the Computer.*


Bob you hear those words from Logan (see above post). You aren't really sure what he's talking about, but you don't have much time to think about it right now, as you are in a fist fight with Horton.


Can Logan Actually see my uniform to take a snap of it while I'm grappling Horton?


Unarmed Combat (Boris) 1d20 9=27
Fine Manipulation (Boris) 1d20 9=12

Unarmed Combat (Horton): 1d20 6=25
Unarmed Combat (Bob) 1d20 4=9

Boris barley manages to wrestle the spray can out of Horton's hand. He then sprays it at Logan. A small blast of spray hits Logan, but then the spray just fizzles out and starts getting all runny and drips down Boris's hand, making him more dirty. Bob thumps at Horton, but is just slapping him like a little girl. Horton wails him with a solid blow and Bob staggers backward.

Logan is just getting pics of the scuffle. You aren't clear if he's getting any good ones of your spray painted uniform

uh oh! -

Spoiler:
that's not good, I had wanted to make Horton Spray him

<Into whatever microphone he can....LOUDLY>

"Thank you brother Boris, thank you for helping me spray the simpering computer lover!"


<Embraces Boris, weeping.>

"I love you Brother Boris."


"Omnipotent Computer, I regret to inform you that the traitorous and unhappy Boris-R-LOF-1 is in possession of equipment that is above his clearance level."

*Snaps picture of Boris with spray-can.*


"Pfah, what is this brother you speak of?"

Spoiler:
snap his neck


Logan sees Horton and Boris embracing and wonders if they are umm... acrobats.


Spoiler:
Logan bristles at the vile insult "Computer lover," but he manages to keep his big friendly smile intact. He looks like he's having a good time, but he really wants to kill everyone on board. If the fools think him a "Computer lover," then all the better to keep his association with the Frankenstein Destroyers a secret.


oh look the computer added FLAG links for inappropriate posts


Boris drops the can of spray paint and attempts to throttle Horton with his bare hands.

Boris (unarmed): [9,9] = (18)

Horton (unarmed): 1d20 6=8

He manages to get his hands around Horton's throat and starts choking him. Horton's face is rapidly turning purple. Bob is rubbing his injured jaw.


I'm sure there will be plenty of those on this thread...

See you soon Horton-R-TPK-1 or should I say 2?

*SMILES*

Now I'm happy


"GnnnnnNGNGnnggggggggggggnnnnnnnnnnn"

DM EYES ONLY:

Spoiler:
If possible (if it drags on) I'd like to poke my thumbs into Boris' eyes as he strangles me.


As Boris continues to gleefully throttle Horton, and Bob nurses his bruised jaw, while preparing to jump back into the fray, the transbot suddenly decelerates very quickly.

Transbot vs. Horton 1d20 8=19
Transbot vs. Boris 1d20 8=10
Transbot vs. Bob 1d20 8=11

Bob staggers, but falls into a seat. Boris let's go of Horton's throat and falls to one knee. Horton goes reeling backwards and crashes into the backwall of the transbot, smashing his head. He's still consciousish, but very groggy. There is a pleasant sounding ding and the doors open. The orange citizen jumps out of his seat and virtually runs off the transbot, shouting out something about "Crazed Commie traitors trying to kill eachother."

Spoiler:
grab my stuff, grab horton's stuff and drag Horton out of the transbot, hand over Horton to the nearest IntSec and report to the nearest external computer terminal...file a report on all the activities, with a serious bent in my favor

Boris is back on his feet quite quickly. With his satchel still slung around him, he grabs up the dazed Horton by the front of his jumpsuit and starts dragging him out the open doors.

Boris hold off on any further action until the other players get somewhat of a chance to respond to this.

I was also grabbing my PDC - and accessing the dmg

No prob

Spoiler:
I also get as much paint as possible off my hand and onto Horton's jumpsuit


Why do you want to look in the dungeon master's guide?


"Ennn?"

Uh, I don't know what I MEANT to write there...I think I was trying to access the computer...but now I have no clue HAHA

EDIT: Figured it out...HAHA I meant Assessing the damage to my PDC

1-Tru-G0D moves over to where Bob is and takes the opportunity that he is nursing his bruise to ask, "Why are you in possession of Commie pamphlets? No use denying I saw them. Hold them out for all to see."

For the DM's eyes only

Spoiler:
I point the concealed laser pistol at him. Aggression begets aggression. He he he.

Lack of knowledge of the rules is essential. Then knowledge of the rules should have an adverse effect, yes?


Male Clone Troubleshooter/ Red Lvl

Tim will hold up his PDC and snap a pic of Bob, Tru, and the pamphlets.
For the DM:

Spoiler:
The picture should show two obvious Commies in deep discussion over their treasonous propaganda.

"Keep up the good work, Boris, I've got these other two traitors right where want them. Die, Commies!"

Tim will open fire on the two of them, targeting Bob first, since he's standing and mobile.
