[Back to Report]

[20:13] <Viper7> Our destination is P43-3J23
[20:13] <Viper7> From what we've decipered, the Grail lies in a cavern out in the desert. The entrance to the cavern is half a kilometer north of the gate.
[20:13] <Viper7> The planet appears to be a rolling desert dotted by rock outcroppings. The stargate is located inside a cave in one of these outcroppings. Initial survays show no Goa'uld activity, or any other activity for that matter.
[20:14] <Viper7> Which makes us a bit suspicious.
[20:15] <Viper7> Gear up and report to the gate room
[20:15] * Thorn slings her gear over her shoulder and heads for the gate room
[20:15] * davie rises from the table and heads to the locker room
[20:15] <Glantry> Ok we're suspicious! go on! lol
[20:16] <Thorn> yeah, I wondered about that
[20:16] * Glantry puts on gear and some sun screen
[20:16] * Corry waits for the brass to exit first and then follows, grumbling about desert fatigues.
[20:16] * Phil Gets ready packs some skittles for the trip and heads for gate room
[20:16] * davie straps on his equipment vest then heads to the armory for his weapons
[20:17] <Nick_Fel> you've all been issued E-11s and M-5Ns, as well as the sidearm of your choice
[20:17] * Viper7 grabs his H. Tracker and makes his way to the control room
[20:17] * Glantry picks up two blasters from the armory and a big Rambo knife
[20:17] <Thorn> any weapons restrictions on thi - - - - never mind
[20:17] * Viper7 slings a G16c over his shoulder
[20:17] * davie picks up his E-11 and a DL-18 to go with his Viper
[20:18] <Viper7> :P@nick
[20:18] * Corry enters the gate room, pulling on her pack
[20:18] * Glantry heads for the gateroom shewing a piece of beef jerky
[20:18] * Nick_Fel watches the stargate dial up and engage
[20:18] * Viper7 pushes a few buttons and walks back down to the gate room
[20:18] <Phil> Gets his E11 which he forgot and heads back to the gate room
[20:18] * davie slathers on a lot of sunscreen
[20:19] * Glantry turns to Thorn! I like this part
[20:19] <Thorn> dont forget to duck...
[20:19] * Corry chuckles as she watches David
[20:19] * Viper7 looks at Nick expectantly
[20:19] <Viper7> well lead on oh disposable one
[20:19] <Corry> Got a little crispy last time, Captain?
[20:19] * Glantry smiles at Thorn
[20:19] <davie> just a bit
[20:19] <Nick_Fel> ah, s'fun to be disposable
[20:19] * Nick_Fel pushes Corry through first and follows
[20:20] * Viper7 laughs and walks up the ramp and through the gate
[20:20] * davie steps through behind Nick
[20:20] * Glantry runs up ramp and fanishes in the gate
[20:20] * Corry stumbles through the other side and gasps for air
[20:20] * Phil follows davie throw
[20:20] * Thorn grins and heads up the ramp and through the gate
[20:20] * Nick_Fel puts on the sunglasses Jack bought him
[20:20] * davie steps through the other side and begins scanning teh area for trouble
[20:21] * Phil arrives on the other side
[20:21] <Corry> Thank you, Admiral. I will no longer complain about not being useful.
[20:21] <Nick_Fel> glad to hear it
[20:21] * Viper7 steps through and takes a look around, squinting under the harsh light
[20:21] * Glantry puts on shades
[20:21] * Viper7 steal's Davie's shades and puts them on
[20:22] * davie pulls out his real shades after Viper takes his spare pair
[20:22] * Glantry feels sorry for Davie
[20:22] * Thorn appears on the other side ~ gah, desert or forest, desert or forest
[20:22] * Phil dont need shades
[20:22] <Thorn> cant we find a beach sometime?
[20:22] <Viper7> no
[20:22] <Nick_Fel> SG-1 tried that, they got set on fire and Daniel drowned
[20:22] <Nick_Fel> never done it since
[20:22] <Viper7> that would be too enjoyable for you lot, thus we must avoid it.
[20:22] <Phil> sees a lake in the distance, hey thorn over there!
[20:22] <Glantry> the beach is only a 3 days walk through the desert Thorn
[20:23] * Viper7 smacks phil
[20:23] * davie walks over and checks the DHD
[20:23] <Viper7> that's a marage
[20:23] * Corry tries to imagine Viper in a Speedo... and shudders
[20:23] <Thorn> I think that is a mirage, Phil
[20:23] <Nick_Fel> everything look okay Davie?
[20:23] <Phil> lol

[20:24] * Glantry spits out Jerky, I guess this stuuf is bad for you!
[20:24] <davie> Glantry, I keep telling ya, lay off the "water" before missions
[20:25] <Nick_Fel> I say this way <sets off>
[20:25] * Viper7 spins around in a complete circle and points at a rock outcropping
[20:25] * Phil puts shades on cause im seeing things
[20:25] <Thorn> The gate might be shaking a bit, *watches as the gate closes*
[20:25] * Viper7 follows nick
[20:25] * davie moves off following Nick
[20:25] * Glantry takes position 3 meters behind Viper
[20:25] * Phil follows vipe and nick
[20:25] <Thorn> Too bad Atomic isnt here to play gate-sitter
[20:25] * Corry moves out, watching for snakes
[20:25] <Nick_Fel> how far's the cave meant to be?
[20:26] <Viper7> no, its a good thing he isnt
[20:26] <Viper7> 500 meters give or take i think
[20:26] <davie> you're the one with the map
[20:26] <Viper7> I am?
[20:26] <Nick_Fel> map? no, we're not that prepared
[20:26] * Thorn pulls out a pair of binocs and looks around
[20:26] <davie> uh oh...
[20:27] <Nick_Fel> see the entrance Thorn?
[20:27] <Thorn> Rock outcropping dead ahead
[20:27] <Viper7> sounds about right
[20:27] * Thorn trudges toward it
[20:27] <Nick_Fel> hate sand...
[20:27] <Glantry> Got to love those rock outcropping
[20:28] <Thorn> looks volcanic, like a rhyolite plug
[20:28] <davie> look on the bright side, it's a dry heat
[20:28] <Phil> loves sand anyone got a bucket??
[20:28] * Viper7 grabs a handful of sand and throws it at Nick

[20:29] <Viper7> No problem boss
[20:29] <Corry> Ummmm... Viper, sir... what are you going to do with this thing, if we find it?
[20:29] * Glantry moves 4 meters away from Viper
[20:29] <Thorn> thats a good question...
[20:29] <Glantry> I hate sand as weel
[20:30] <Viper7> good question, i figure i'm going to use it's power to take over the universe and squash all those who oppose me
[20:30] <Corry> ok. and after that?
[20:30] <davie> sounds about right
[20:30] <Phil> lol, in other words make sure vipe dont get his hands on it at all costs
[20:30] * Thorn blinks - -ok then
[20:30] <Nick_Fel> I guess we see exactly what it's for in the first place lol
[20:30] * Viper7 grins
[20:30] <Corry> ah... so his mission is to find it. Our mission is to destroy him if he does...
[20:30] <Corry> got it
[20:31] * Viper7 laughs
[20:31] <davie> lol
[20:31] <Thorn> well, I could do that right now and save us a lot of problems
[20:31] <Phil> yes furbie
[20:31] <Corry> LOL
[20:31] <Corry> Phil... you're next
[20:31] <Phil> lol
[20:31] * davie laughs
[20:31] * Glantry steps 15 meters away from everyone
[20:31] * Thorn starts to see small outcroppings of rock in the sand
[20:32] <Thorn> we're getting closer
[20:32] <Viper7> so it seems
[20:32] <Viper7> Anything yet Nick?
[20:32] * davie drinks from his canteen
[20:32] <Phil> he whats this hey a knife , cool, packs knife away
[20:32] <Nick_Fel> looks to be about 100m away
[20:32] * Corry whispers to Thorn. "So, first we have to make sure Phil gets injured on this mission. Then I'll put ink in the bacta tank..."
[20:32] <Glantry> That's my knife son, give it back lol
[20:32] * Thorn snickers
[20:32] * Nick_Fel stops in the shade of the outcropping
[20:32] <Thorn> which color?
[20:33] <Nick_Fel> entrance should be around here somewhere
[20:33] * Viper7 accidentally trips up Thorn
[20:33] <Viper7> woops, sorry
[20:33] <Thorn> hey!
[20:33] * Phil keeps well away from corry and thorn
[20:33] <Corry> Take a lesson from Red and don't mess with knives with knives if you don't know where they keep their brain.
[20:33] <Phil> here ya go glantry, hands knife back
[20:33] <Viper7> everyone go look for an entrance
[20:33] * davie hands corry some water
[20:33] <Corry> Why thank you!
[20:33] <davie> sounds like you could use a little
[20:34] * Glantry goes around the outcropping
[20:34] <Corry> What did you spike it with this time?
[20:34] * Phil goes and looks about
[20:34] * Viper7 walks down a bit further looking for an entrance
[20:34] * Thorn looks for animal tracks that could lead to shelter
[20:34] * davie begins searching for an entrance
[20:34] * Nick_Fel sneezes
[20:34] <Nick_Fel> hate sand
[20:34] * Corry stands back and looks at the outline of the rocks
[20:34] <Glantry> bless you!
[20:34] <Phil> thorn here animal tracks looks like some kind of dog track or somekind of animal like that
[20:35] * Thorn follows the tracks to a narrow entrance in the outcropping
[20:35] * Phil follows animal tracks
[20:35] * Glantry climbs rocks to scan the horizon
[20:35] <Corry> I hate to say this, but I don't think the entrance is on ground level... Look at that...
[20:35] * Corry points to a black opening 10 meters up
[20:35] <davie> oh lovely
[20:35] <Corry> Anyone bring any rope?
[20:35] <davie> I did
[20:36] <Glantry> anyone have a jet pack?
[20:36] <Phil> i do
[20:36] <Corry> Can you climb with that knee?
[20:36] <davie> yep
[20:36] <Corry> safer than using a jet pack
[20:36] <davie> lol
[20:36] <Thorn> *shines flashlight around* this crevase pans out after 4-5 meters, so we should try that one
[20:36] * davie finds some handholds in the rock and begins to climb
[20:36] <Glantry> Yes but the jet pack is much kewler Corry
[20:37] <Corry> true ture
[20:37] * Viper7 starts climbinb
[20:37] <Phil> glantry u sjhould have one your a fett
[20:37] <Glantry> I left it at home
[20:37] * Thorn steps back and watches the climbers
[20:37] * davie makes it up to a ridge in front of the entrance
[20:37] <Glantry> Sam is flying around on base as we speak
[20:37] * Viper7 stops
[20:37] <Corry> LOL
[20:37] <Thorn> heh!
[20:38] * Phil uses jet pack and flys stright past the gang and arrives at the top
[20:38] * Viper7 looks down at Nick
[20:38] * Corry finds a route to the right and starts climbing
[20:38] * Nick_Fel sighs and climbs up
[20:38] <Viper7> did you hear that?
[20:38] * davie shoots an anchor down into teh rock then drops a rope down the rockface to assist teh other climbers
[20:38] <Nick_Fel> clicking from inside the rock?
[20:38] <Glantry> That was mu stomach viper
[20:38] <Viper7> yeah
[20:38] * Corry stops
[20:38] <Corry> what?
[20:38] * Viper7 frowns
[20:38] * Thorn takes Davies route and climbs up
[20:38] <Viper7> machinary?
[20:39] * Nick_Fel pulls himself up to the top
[20:39] <Glantry> put an ear to the rock face
[20:39] * Corry starts climbing again "lovely"
[20:39] <Nick_Fel> could be i guess... there's been no machinery at any of the other locations
[20:39] <Phil> hey guys theres a vent hole up here
[20:39] * Viper7 scrambles up after Nick
[20:39] * Viper7 shoots Phil down
[20:39] <Thorn> Phil, get on the comms

[20:39] <Thorn> voices carry in the desert...
[20:39] * Phil uses knife to cut vipes rope :P
[20:40] * Corry smiles at David and pulls her Deathhammer
[20:40] * Viper7 isnt on a rope smartass
[20:40] * Glantry makes his way to the crevace
[20:41] <Phil> wow what a view
[20:41] * davie gives Thorn a hand as well, then unholsters his Viper and steps into the cave entrance
[20:41] <Thorn> dunno
[20:41] * Viper7 slaps his forhead with a hand
[20:41] <Thorn> thanks davie
[20:41] * Corry pokes her head into the darkness and then slowly follows
[20:41] <Nick_Fel> go away Catain Subtext...<ahem>
[20:41] * Nick_Fel heads down into the cavern
[20:42] * Glantry enters crevace
[20:42] <Phil> follows glantry
[20:42] * Viper7 follows Nick down into the cavern
[20:42] * Thorn turns her glowrod to its lowest setting and slips in after the rest
[20:42] * Nick_Fel clips a glowrod onto his rifle
[20:42] <Nick_Fel> that noise is getting louder...
[20:42] <Glantry> definatly machinery sounds, can hear them better from in here
[20:43] * Corry runs a hand along the cave walls. They are dry and dustfree... but something smells musty
[20:43] <Glantry> It my new perfume Corry
[20:43] * davie pulls out his E-11and clips a glowrod on teh barrel
[20:43] <Viper7> Hmmm
[20:43] * Viper7 holds his H. Tracker ready
[20:44] * Nick_Fel turns around a corner and backs up suddenly
[20:44] * Glantry takes out his blasters
[20:44] <Nick_Fel> holy sh...replicators!
[20:44] * Thorn keeps an eye out behind them, pulling her deathhammer
[20:44] * Viper7 runs right into Nick
[20:44] * Phil gets his e11 out and looks around
[20:44] <Viper7> FUCK!
[20:44] * Viper7 backs up rapidly
[20:44] <Thorn> here? how?
[20:44] * Corry drops her Deathhammer in her holster and pulls out her M5
[20:45] <Viper7> Who knows
[20:45] * Glantry puts holsters blasters
[20:45] <Glantry> shit
[20:45] <Viper7> they go after technology, right?
[20:45] <Viper7> they must be after the Grail
[20:45] * Nick_Fel fires his blaster, notices it's doing nothing and pulls out the machine gun
[20:45] <Thorn> yeah - - the grail is technology??
[20:45] * Viper7 slings his H. Tracker
[20:45] <davie> oh great, this is going to be fun
[20:45] <Corry> I wondered when I'd get to use this baby.
[20:45] * Viper7 pulls out his G16c
[20:45] <Viper7> who knows
[20:45] <Thorn> oh, and all this time I thought it was a myth
[20:45] * Glantry takes out knife
[20:46] * davie slings his E-11 on his back and unholsters his Viper
[20:46] * Phil opens fire with his side arm
[20:46] <Corry> Glantry, those little critters will eat that for lunch
[20:46] * Viper7 flicks to selective fire and begins shooting
[20:46] <Glantry> I knew I should have brought an M% :(
[20:46] <Glantry> m5*
[20:47] * Viper7 grabs a grenade and primes it
[20:47] <Viper7> Fire in the hole!
[20:47] * Corry hits the deck and covers her head
[20:47] * davie turns and covers his ears
[20:47] * Viper7 lobs it down the tunnel
[20:47] * Nick_Fel retreats back, firing as he goes
[20:47] * Glantry runs for cover
[20:47] <Phil> vipe i see two tunnels ahead,
[20:47] * Thorn ducks into a crevase
[20:47] * Viper7 smacks phil, your seeing things again, we're going backwards
[20:48] * Phil heads backwards
[20:48] * Corry rolls for the wall and starts making her way for the entrance
[20:48] * Thorn slips down an opening in the crevase.....
[20:48] <Thorn> Yipe!!!!
[20:48] * Viper7 grabs thorn's flailing arm
[20:48] <Glantry> BIG BADA BOOM!!!
[20:48] <Viper7> gotcha!
[20:48] <Thorn> gee thanks
[20:48] <Phil> <comm> what about that small opening where the animal tracks lead too could we not open that wider??
[20:49] * davie covers Viper while he helps THorn
[20:49] <Viper7> there's no animals here
[20:49] <Glantry> I think we've attracted more Replicators whit that explosion
[20:49] <Viper7> those are replicators
[20:49] * Viper7 shakes his head
[20:49] <Thorn> now what? we cant leave the grail here, can we?
[20:50] <Nick_Fel> definitely not... it's going to get eaten if we do
[20:50] <Viper7> we could blow the whole planet up, but that would require more firepower than we can muster
[20:50] <Viper7> we have to get it
[20:50] <davie> they obviously don't have it yet, so what is keeping them back?
[20:50] <Glantry> Anyone have a spare machine gun?
[20:51] <Viper7> no, that's why you were issued one of your own
[20:51] <Nick_Fel> I'm reading a metal structure under the rock, the tunnels probably lead down to it... they'll be after food
[20:51] <Viper7> which you didn't bring
[20:51] * Nick_Fel unhooks Glantry's M5-N from his backpack
[20:51] <Viper7> makes sense
[20:51] <Viper7> oh, heh
[20:51] <Viper7> missed that
[20:51] * Glantry looks on his body... ah! I didn't notice you
[20:51] * Corry looks down the crevasse that Thorn found
[20:51] <Corry> did someone mention "Down"?
[20:52] <Phil> <comm> idea anyone got anythink that could attract them away from here??
[20:52] * davie steps over and looks beside her
[20:52] <davie> I think you'rte on to something
[20:52] <Corry> Dark and musty, but it's big enough
[20:52] <davie> Thorn, where does teh scanner say this goes?
[20:52] <Viper7> Phil, go run out into the desert and see if they follow you, if they're worried about eating you the rest of us can accomplish our mission
[20:52] * Thorn shines her glowrod down the hole and checks the scanners
[20:52] <Glantry> Guys think fast, i can here more coming this way
[20:52] <Viper7> it's a brave thing you did volenteering for this hazardous duty
[20:53] <Thorn> I am getting echos from the rock, but there is metal down there
[20:53] <Phil> if we set up a devise away from here they would be attracted to it and then we would have a clear entrance
[20:53] * Glantry aims M5 at uncoming noises
[20:53] <davie> this looks like a backdoor to me
[20:54] * Corry grimaces and pulls out a canister of liquid cable. "This isn't my choice of how to die. But being dinner for replicators doesn't sound like fun either."
[20:54] <davie> with luck we can get to whatever is protecting the Grail from the replicators
[20:55] <Phil> corry do u have that reator with you??
[20:55] * Viper7 attaches an anchor point to the rock and sets his rope
[20:55] <Glantry> get down there, we have more company /me firres at Replicators
[20:55] <Viper7> well, to hell with us folks.
[20:55] * Nick_Fel stands with Glantry holding replicators back
[20:55] <davie> looks fun! Generals first
[20:55] * Viper7 drops down into the hole
[20:55] <Phil> reactor*
[20:55] <Thorn> Down, down, into the depths - Thorn watches Viper rappel down the opening
[20:56] <Glantry> These things are resiliant don't you think Nick?
[20:56] * davie follows Viper
[20:56] <Nick_Fel> certainly are :/
[20:56] <Phil> follows vipe
[20:56] <Corry> <comms> Sorry Phil. I don't have one!
[20:56] * Nick_Fel waits till everyone's on their way down and follows
[20:57] * Viper7 keeps going down
[20:57] <Viper7> <comms> this thing ends, right?
[20:57] <Viper7> <comms> before i run out of rope, right?
[20:57] <Viper7> <comms> right?
[20:57] * Corry sets her jaw, anchors the liquid cable to the rock face and lets it start playing out
[20:57] <Phil> <comms> ok corry , im out of ideas
[20:57] <Viper7> <comms> Thorn?
[20:57] <Viper7> <comms> RIGHT?
[20:57] * Glantry slowly walks backwards back to crevace firing away
[20:57] <Thorn> anytime now....
[20:57] * Viper7 hits the bottom
[20:57] <Thorn> watch your head though
[20:57] * Viper7 lights a flare and tosses it aside
[20:57] * Thorn reaches the bottom
[20:57] * davie lands behind Viper
[20:57] * Glantry going down
[20:58] * Phil fires at one that almost got glantry
[20:58] <Glantry> come on Nick!
[20:58] * Corry touches bottom and releases the cable, then moves out of the way
[20:58] * Phil heads down
[20:58] * Thorn looks down a tunnel leading off into the darkness
[20:58] * Nick_Fel slips out of the bottom ahead of Glantry
[20:58] <Thorn> oh goody
[20:59] <Corry> <whispers> any skittering noises down here?
[20:59] <davie> great, three foot eiling...
[20:59] <Corry> no way. I'm going back up.
[20:59] * Glantry fires at Replicators trying to crawl donw the crevace
[20:59] <Corry> ok, maybe I'm not
[21:00] * Nick_Fel stops infront of a huge blast door covered in alien lettering
[21:00] * davie shines his glowrod on the door
[21:00] * Viper7 takes a walks into the room and takes a look at the door
[21:00] <Corry> <mutters>Speak Friend and Enter
[21:00] <Glantry> I'll be needing more amo soon!
[21:00] <Viper7> that writing look familiar to you?
[21:00] <Thorn> throw a glop grenade up the opening
[21:01] <Corry> Thorn! I want to get out at some time!
[21:01] <Nick_Fel> looks like Ancient scipts I've seen
[21:01] <Glantry> <screams to Replicators> You shall not pass
[21:01] * Phil continues to fire at replicators
[21:01] <Viper7> what was it called? Lathan? Latnum? Latin!
[21:01] * Thorn checks out the door,
[21:01] <Corry> Ah heck. Move aside
[21:01] <Nick_Fel> know any Latin Thorn?
[21:02] <Thorn> aah, over here guys. <pulls a lever>
[21:02] * Viper7 mutters, "Smartass"
[21:02] <Thorn> the doors swing open
[21:02] <Glantry> I'm a pilot not a infantry man!!!
[21:02] <davie> heh, figures

[21:03] * Nick_Fel makes sure the crevace is gummed up and heads through
[21:03] * Viper7 scampers inside
[21:03] <davie> Glantry, Phil, lets move!
[21:03] * Phil gets inside
[21:03] * davie steps inside
[21:03] * Glantry grabs Phil by the colar and heads for the door
[21:03] * Thorn runs through the door, pulling Corry along
[21:03] * Corry slips inside
[21:03] * Thorn looks around
[21:03] <Thorn> how do I close it??
[21:03] <Corry> Now how do you shut those things?

[21:04] * Corry and Thorn put their shoulders to the doors and begin pushing
[21:04] <Corry> grrr
[21:04] * davie grabs the lever and the door glides shut
[21:04] * Viper7 goes and pushes the lever up, closing the doors
[21:04] * Corry looks on in awe
[21:04] * Viper7 laughs at Corry
[21:04] * Thorn checks the scanner as the doors swing to
[21:04] <Corry> Tell me those doors are bug proof. Please.
[21:04] <Glantry> You manged to crush a Replicator at the same time! great
[21:04] <davie> ok, so now that we've sealed ourselves in....
[21:05] <Nick_Fel> I guess we look around lol
[21:05] <Thorn> always looking on the bright side
[21:05] <Corry> Noticed that little fact, did you?
[21:05] <Nick_Fel> the main door's over here.... I guess that leads back up to the cavern
[21:05] * Phil corry nothing is bug proof they will get in here sooner or later
[21:05] <Corry> Sorry. I have a problem with small dark enclosed spots with no means of escape. Makes me grumpy.
[21:06] * davie strikes a flare and tosses it lighting the cavern
[21:06] <Nick_Fel> anyone seeing this grail?
[21:06] <davie> well, that sheds some light on teh subject
[21:06] * Viper7 goes off to take a leak in a shadowed corner before rejoining the rest of the group
[21:06] <Corry> eww
[21:06] * Thorn looks around the large cavern
[21:06] <davie> erm...no
[21:07] <Viper7> can't say i do
[21:07] <Phil> i see nothing
[21:07] * davie begions examining the walls
[21:07] <Glantry> That's me infront of you Phil
[21:07] <Viper7> there appears to be some sort of passage over here though
[21:07] * Thorn cranks up her glowrod to the highest setting
[21:07] <Phil> lol
[21:07] <Corry> According to legend you won't see it with your eyes. I suggest someone get in tune with a higher power.
[21:08] * Glantry puts in a new clip
[21:08] * Thorn blinks at Corry
[21:08] <davie> possible cloaking device?
[21:08] <Thorn> dont remember that from la morte de arthur
[21:08] * Viper7 makes his way into the passage and is almost beheaded by a huge blade that swings down out of nowhere
[21:08] <Viper7> gah
[21:08] * Viper7 falls backwards and out the opening
[21:08] <Viper7> OVER HERE!
[21:08] <Glantry> Indianna Jones anyone?
[21:08] <Thorn> umm, I think its that way
[21:08] <Phil> runs over to vipe
[21:09] <davie> <steps over and looks at the blade> hello...
[21:09] * Viper7 moves the blade aside and steps past
[21:09] <Viper7> watch for booby traps
[21:09] <davie> no problem <turns up his glowrod>
[21:10] <Corry> <mutters> now he tells us
[21:10] * Viper7 makes his way down the passage, watching for triggers
[21:10] * Glantry follows davie in
[21:10] * Phil slowly follows vipe
[21:10] * Corry edges past the blade
[21:11] * Thorn stays well back from the rest
[21:11] <Glantry> Chicken!
[21:11] <Thorn> If you trigger anything, someone has to get you out of trouble
[21:11] * Viper7 stops
[21:12] <davie> gee, thanks
[21:12] <davie> what you got Vipe?
[21:12] * Glantry stops behing Davie
[21:12] <Viper7> i think we should all back up a bit
[21:12] * Glantry slowly backs up
[21:12] * Thorn eyes go wide... OK
[21:12] * Viper7 moves backwards a tad bit, keeping pressure on his left foot
[21:12] * Phil does as he is told
[21:13] * davie looks down and sees Viper standing on a raiseed stone
[21:13] * Viper7 looks at the walls
[21:13] <Glantry> That can't be good
[21:13] <davie> oh goody <steps back slightly>
[21:13] * Viper7 ducks down, and moves his foot
[21:13] * Viper7 several large, sharp steaks fly out from the wall, impacting the opposite wall
[21:14] * Viper7 feels his head
[21:14] * Corry winces and shakes her head
[21:14] <Viper7> ok, we're good
[21:14] * Viper7 crawls under the steaks
[21:14] * Thorn grins
[21:14] * Nick_Fel keeps following
[21:14] <Thorn> BBQ later anyone?
[21:14] * davie grabs Viper's hat from where it has become a part of teh wall
[21:14] <Glantry> This place is even Vampire proof
[21:14] <davie> try not to do that again, eh?
[21:14] <Viper7> that was your fault
[21:14] <Viper7> stop distracting me
[21:15] <davie> sure it was <crawls under teh stakes and follows Viper>
[21:15] * Corry drops to the floor and crawls after the others
[21:15] * Glantry grabs a steak
[21:16] <Glantry> These seem to have preserved themselves very well
[21:16] <Viper7> indeed
[21:16] * Viper7 laughs
[21:16] * Thorn follows behind
[21:16] <davie> that can only mean army food...
[21:16] <Corry> Tartar, Glantry? That's disgusting!
[21:16] <Thorn> not saying a word... well, maybe one or two
[21:16] * Viper7 raises an eyebrow
[21:16] <Glantry> Hey Viper called them steaks
[21:17] <Nick_Fel> you found anything up there yet?
[21:17] * Viper7 pokes a stone that sends a hail of punji stakes flying out of the walls
[21:17] * Corry reaches the end of the pointy wooden objects and stands up
[21:17] * Corry drops back down and stays there
[21:17] * Viper7 hollars back, "Just some preserved meats and a bunch of booby traps."
[21:18] * Thorn drops flat - Ohhh, right, ok
[21:18] <davie> great, processed meat and shish kebabs
[21:18] * Phil still following glantry
[21:18] * Corry chuckles
[21:18] * Glantry still folowing Phil
[21:18] * Viper7 makes it out into a small chamber lit by a soft golden glow
[21:18] * Phil thinks glantry and him are walking in circles
[21:18] <Viper7> hmmm
[21:19] <Viper7> Found something
[21:19] * Thorn scrambles after the rest and enters the chamber
[21:19] * davie enters the chamber
[21:19] <davie> good find
[21:19] * Glantry enters the chamber
[21:19] <Nick_Fel> talk about atmosphere
[21:19] * Phil enters chamber
[21:19] * Thorn checks the scanners
[21:20] <Thorn> there doesnt seem to be any discernable power source for the lighting...
[21:20] <Viper7> Odd
[21:20] * Glantry checks Thorn's scanner
[21:20] * Viper7 walks out into the center of the room
[21:20] <davie> for that matter, I don't see any obvious lights...
[21:20] * Viper7 is surrounded by a white light, increasing in intensity
[21:21] * Corry waits by the wall to see what will happen to Viper next.
[21:21] * Phil looks around a little more
[21:21] <Thorn> Ummm, Vipe
[21:21] <Nick_Fel> um.. something happening
[21:21] <Corry> err... viper... do you want that to happen?
[21:21] <Viper7> no more than I wanted to be attacked by meat products
[21:21] * Glantry puts shades on
[21:21] <Viper7> this is quite odd
[21:22] <davie> no kidding
[21:22] <Phil> could be a kind of transport or test
[21:22] * Viper7 points at Corry and watches as a USDA Choice Beef Steak flys out at her
[21:22] <Viper7> woah, kewl
[21:22] <Nick_Fel> Vipe?
[21:22] * Corry ducks
[21:22] <Thorn> holy smokes, err, stakes, err steaks
[21:22] <Viper7> must be some sort of mind-powered device
[21:22] <Corry> Is this the part where we have to destroy him?
[21:22] <davie> fascinating....
[21:23] <Glantry> Prolly made from Mad Cow
[21:23] <Corry> LOL
[21:23] <Phil> lol
[21:23] <Viper7> I was thinking about steaks, and then corry spoke
[21:23] <Viper7> lets try something...
[21:23] <Corry> NO!
[21:23] <Corry> Let's not
[21:23] <Thorn> Lets not!!
[21:23] <davie> Viper...
[21:23] * Viper7 closes his eyes
[21:23] <Glantry> Chicken
[21:23] <Thorn> no, steak
[21:23] * Viper7 a chicken falls on glantry
[21:23] * Viper7 another steak falls on Thorn
[21:24] <Viper7> STOP IT!
[21:24] <Phil> wishes for skittles, and a bag drop on his head
[21:24] * Viper7 opens his eyes and points at the wall
[21:24] <Corry> <whispers>Awesome Cosmic Powers! Itty bitty living space.
[21:24] * davie chuckles
[21:24] * Viper7 a segment disappears and reveals a small wodden chalace
[21:24] * Viper7 the light disappears
[21:24] <Corry> cool
[21:24] <Viper7> that's it?
[21:25] <Nick_Fel> looks like it
[21:25] <Nick_Fel> who's going to touch it first?
[21:25] <Thorn> ahh, wacky fun
[21:25] <Glantry> Yep made by a carpenter!
[21:25] <Corry> What did you want ? Cold Pressed Latinum?
[21:25] <Viper7> kinda melodramatic, isnt it?
[21:25] <Viper7> I'm not touching i
[21:25] <Viper7> it
[21:25] <Corry> Ask the bugs if its the right one
[21:25] <davie> Whats teh scanner say?
[21:25] <Glantry> does anyone have The Force here, they could use telekenises on it
[21:26] <Corry> If you weren't going to touch it, how did you plan to get it home?
[21:26] * Thorn shrugs
[21:26] * Nick_Fel picks it up and passes it from hand to hand
[21:26] <Nick_Fel> lighter than it looks
[21:26] <Thorn> scanners arent picking up anything but a carbon based opject
[21:26] * davie steps closer and shines his light on it
[21:26] <Nick_Fel> I say we figure it out later and get out of here
[21:27] * Glantry pours water in it
[21:27] <Glantry> try drinking now Nick
[21:27] <Thorn> glantry, I dont think that is a good idea
[21:27] <Nick_Fel> no, I've seen Indiana Jones
[21:27] * Viper7 frowns at glantry
[21:27] <Thorn> AT ALLL
[21:27] * Nick_Fel tips the water out and puts it in his pack
[21:27] <Thorn> I wonder if the replicators are after the grail, or the tech protecting it
[21:27] <Glantry> now to find a way out of here
[21:27] <Corry> Now this will work well. Our beloved Admiral is now Target Number One for the bugs.
[21:27] <Viper7> hmmmm
[21:28] <Nick_Fel> I've never heard about Replicators going for wood
[21:28] * davie frowns as something sparkly in teh water catches his eye
[21:28] <Viper7> Nick_Fel, put that in Corry's pack
[21:28] <Nick_Fel> odds are they're after all this metal
[21:28] <Viper7> just incase
[21:28] * Corry rolls her eyes
[21:28] <Thorn> she does want to feel useful
[21:28] <Nick_Fel> lol
[21:28] * Viper7 hears a building rumble
[21:28] <Nick_Fel> what now? :/
[21:29] <Glantry> what building?
[21:29] * davie grabs a scanner from Thorn and takes a closer look at the water
[21:29] <Nick_Fel> the one we're in, under the outcropping
[21:29] <Thorn> what is it David
[21:29] * Viper7 a bright flash occures and everyone is transported outside
[21:29] <Corry> Whoa!
[21:29] <Glantry> Oh that building!
[21:29] <Corry> I hate it when that happens
[21:30] <Nick_Fel> that was handy...
[21:30] * davie scrambles for his sunglasses
[21:30] <Viper7> indeed, lets go before they come swarming after us!
[21:30] <Thorn> what precisely happened, that is the question
[21:30] <Glantry> What was that?
[21:30] * Nick_Fel feels the earth shake as the outcropping sinks into the sand below them
[21:30] * Viper7 starts booking for the gate
[21:30] <Nick_Fel> RUN FOR IT!!!
[21:30] <Nick_Fel> BACK TO THE GATE!!
[21:30] * Phil puts shades back on and runs for gate
[21:30] * davie runs after Viper
[21:30] <Thorn> right!
[21:30] * Corry turns and pelts after them
[21:30] * Glantry runs for the gate
[21:31] * Thorn watches the outcropping sink into the sand
[21:31] <Thorn> cool
[21:31] <Viper7> Corry, dial the gate!
[21:31] * Thorn turns and runs
[21:31] <Viper7> <comms> Thorn! It's sinking this way!
[21:31] * Corry hits the DHD and begins punching up chevrons
[21:31] <Viper7> Dial faster
[21:31] <Viper7> must dial faster!
[21:31] <Viper7> Faassster!
[21:31] <davie> he have to get there first
[21:31] <Glantry> Hurry up Corry, They are comming!!!1
[21:31] <Corry> Hits the seventh symbol
[21:31] * Thorn watches the sand slip down into a crack opening in the ground
[21:31] * Viper7 grabs his GDO
[21:32] * Nick_Fel watches the worhole open and vipe transmit
[21:32] * davie runs back and grabs Thorn by the collar
[21:32] <davie> lets go
[21:32] * Viper7 hits the send button as soon as the wormhole engages
[21:32] <Thorn> hey!!!
[21:32] <Nick_Fel> go! go!
[21:32] * Viper7 receives a green light
[21:32] * Phil jumps throw gate
[21:32] <Viper7> GO!
[21:32] <Corry> I was doing that
[21:32] <Thorn> Im running as fast as I can
[21:32] * davie runs through teh gate
[21:32] * Viper7 dives through the gate
[21:32] * Corry runs throught the gate
[21:32] * Nick_Fel dives through
[21:32] * Thorn turns to take a picture
[21:33] * Glantry run through the gate
[21:33] * Phil lands on the other side , that hurt
[21:33] <Thorn> then nonchalantly steps through the gate
[21:33] * Viper7 comes out in a full superman dive, falling right onto Phil
[21:33] * davie lands on teh otherside and turns to shoot anything unauthorised following
