Roy didn't even pause as he stepped to the van.  "He'd be inco.petent and stupid not to realize we're gunning for him.  I got three targets on my list...one I know is dead, the second's place is burned to the ground...he's the third.  They're all siblings.  You don't get as powerful as he is by being that kind of stupid."

He turned and looked at Harry.  "And if Elge could have bagged him, he'd be gone already.  That's why I was given the orders...and I don't intend to leave them two-thirds done."

He looked at the rest of the group.  "Guess that means Simms is driving.  Everyone pile into that van and let's get moving.  Teela?  When I give you the word, drop that guard.  I want you watching our backdoor until we can be sure they aren't going to try and come in behind us...then you're welcome to join the assault."

Without another word about it, he walked on to the van that had come from the condo, climbing in and making room for the rest.

  Simms  took one last look at the  party and sighed,  getting into the VAn,..so?  this  whole being Rich thing?... Does it come with the girls?  or  do you have to buy them?

 Hawkes  just   chuckles , and Shakes his head.

  Will says,..well?  If you have to  buy them, they aren't worth having...

 he offered  Will his  rifle ,..look through this scope?.... That  one with the   wine-dark , red Hair..sheesh...

 I'll pass. I don't need a scope  to see what i want...

 Hawkes  said, Comon'  Call.. you want be getting sick  with all that sweet stuff, right before  we jump off?

 Shade  scrambled Up into the Van.. he  tucked himself   but the door way  so the seats  would be used by the bigger folks.

  Simms   called over to  HArry,..may as well hope in.. we got  room for all us?.. GArrat  and    The  Winged chick have their  own way over? he pushes the passnebgerside open..

Zob understood what Harry was getting at with her words but Zob loved to fight it was what he was here for and he wasn't gonna let the SM down when he needed it so he hopped on in and took a seat next to Hawkes, "Most people just run away from me so it wouldn't make much of a difference if i was rich or not"

  Hwakes  looked at Zob,..no offesne?.. but.. you Emprie  types... i mean... ok?.. Have yo ever messed with a Largan, Avains  or   creshian  chick?

  Simms laughs  from up front,..they have  Chicks?

 Sahde  looked over  his  shoudler  and began a series  of  sounds... then loked at   Simms, who just looked at  the others, then back a Shade..   Shade  just sioghed  and  crossed his   arms  and sat .

Zob gave him a raised eye as he grinned a bit finding amusement in the conversation, "Let me ask you this... do you mate with your food before you eat it?" the answer was pretty self explanatory but for amusement sake he would let him answer.

  Hawkes thought about it,..well? I have heard that some   people  down  south on earth..mess around  with  pcigs and goats..and watermelons?.. but..normal Humans don't..just the  ones' whose brains weren't made right...

"So the answer is no Hawkes... i don't mate with them nor will i attempt to do such, i find those races quite repulsive but im sure quite a few others in the demon caste have attempted it... give me a nice voluptuous demon lass with thick thighs and we are golden" Zob chuckled.

  Simms Lookced  Back at  at Hawkes  whop was grinning,we'll have to check  Hawkes  porn  mags.. see if there is  any  Demon foldouts?

  theya re on  hard  disc, under 'know your enemy'...  Hawks  Grinned.

 Shade  looked  back and forth  as they taled , lookign at Roy  with agrey eyes.

Realising that the only way she was going to win the argument was by pulling rank, if she could even do that, Harry would simply throw up her arms in exasperation before heading for the other van, taking Roy's comment that Simms would be driving as a subtle hint that she wasn't wanted.

With Simms clearly not getting the same message as she had, Harry would sweetly smile at him before speaking in a voice that Will, if no one else, would know meant she was in a dangerous mood "hmm I think I'm going to pass, the ESN has lost enough of it's pilots tonight and like someone has already made abundantly clear I'd only get in the way" she said, her eyes briefly flicking from Simms to Will to show who exactly had made that particular observation "...enjoy your bunker busting boys, I'm going to bed" she said in the same sickly sweet voice as she climbed into the drivers seat of the other van and started the engine.

With everyone else heading out on the mission Harry would simply lift off without waiting to see if anyone else wanted to get in. Gracefully spinning the van around she would then head for the condo, travelling at a far more relaxed pace than she'd used on the way here.

---> Etna Condo

"Copy that Roy. I'm in position for the shot and waiting the word to engage." Teela said as she settled in to a perch that gave her a clear line of sight to the guard on the roof and also let her keep an eye on the party to see if anything nefarious was afoot.

Roy noted the attempted exchange between Shade and Simms, and hazarded a guess at a translation.  "Well...we already know the Creshians have a Queen...or multiples...we wiped one out when we destroyed the Hive Ship at Matterhorn.  And the Largrans and Avians have enough in common with Terran lizards and birds that I'm pretty sure we can assume there's two genders present.  So, yeah...they have 'chicks'...the Avians in more than just that sense of the word.  And Hawkes...what you look at in the privacy of your own bunk is your business...but if I ever find out you're looking at Demon porn, I'm gonna have Stefi order a psych evaluation on you..." He paused, glancing at Zob.  "You can look at all the Demon porn you want." He kept a straight face just long enough to raise doubts about whether he was joking or dead serious, before he flashed a feral grin at Zob.

"Okay, Simms, let's get moving.  When we hit the roof, I want a team covering the rooftop access...another team goes with Hemsly to blow the generator, or transformer, or whatever it is, in the corner.  Shade can show you exactly what I'm talking about.  After that, we disable rooftop access, then we make a big-ass hole in the roof and shoot anyone we see moving inside.  We'll figure out where to go when we reach that point."

  Simms    liefts off, he  curves  around the Buildign    and  comes in  , just  about level   with the rodd  tops , from the South west.

  The  Guard   had    changed  his view  to watch  the  gun shot s at Shadow's  car, and after he was gone.. decided  to watch.... a little more...

 ..ok?..SM?   we got...maybe..  8 seconds    since  up  drifting.. he  shouldn't hear us.. but he'll hear  us  set down...
 Shade  stood  up    grabbed his  SMG  ..and   Bleeped a few    sounds  as his eyes  truend   red.

 Hawke s looked at  Will, a bit uncertain as he  wateched  Shade.. Will  Just  shrugged   with a grin.

  Hemsley  looked  back to  Shade....Ye  Just lead  me to that  generator, an'  I'll make the bloody thing  dance...

Roy nodded grimly at Simms' words.  "Okay, Teela...drop him." However it turned it, the next several minutes would be chaotic and intense...but that shot would touch it all off.

Garrat is still looking for any action in the building.

 garrat can see people movign , but the window  spacing is  far apart.. as per description.

In reply to Garrat Wolfrim (msg # 62):

  “There are people moving around in the building, the windows  are too far apart for a shot.”

"Copy that. Engaging...now." She pulled the trigger on the guard on the roof.

  The  Guard ws smilign as he watched..., he had an odd  feeling..or perhaps   he  did hear the VAn. he started  to turn, But never   finished the turn as the round  Punched through his  left side  and  blew out his right.

 Simms   settled  down,  and said,..now!.... Hemlsy Opened the  Door.. and   said,  let's go LAddie.... he runs out   with Shade     slomping   close behind.

 Wills  and HAwkes break out, heading to the covered  entrance..Hawkes  calls out,..its  an elevator...

Teela stayed on station and looked up to see if the people at the party had noticed anything or if the was sudden motion on the grounds of heat blooms from the mountains or buildings.

"Let me know when you want me to move, Roy. I'm waiting to see if anyone reacts from the party, grounds, or the mountains."

  The party folks  wouldn't have notcied much, between    cleaning up after the Yellow car's fly by,a and  gettign back to thier  'business'

  The creatures down on the ground  didn't seem to  see or hear anything, as they continued  to meander around.

 Hemlsy    stopped at teh Generator,..he  began to slice  off  bits of C-10  and    set  it  around the   supports  and the  thick Coils  around the Wires... Shade   was  using   his  finger to  burn open the    switch box.  about the  time   Hemsly had  set  his charges, he opened the  door,  Hemsly added a 'snake' to the insides of the generator .

    they run across the    roof to the  elevator   ,  Hemlsy     gets   someone to  give hi a leg up to teh top  and  he  worked    to  put the some   C-10  around the   Cables    of the    pulley wheel.

  the mountaineer  dropped Off   and Shade Pointed  to  the  other corner of the roof.. he   was  spouting all kinds of  Noises ad had  used  his  boot knife to  draw  a circle where he thought  the     roof charge  should go..

 Hemsly  asked him  why..as  the Scot pointed to the Middle of the roof.. shade  rattled   more  noises   walking a square  around  that corner.

 what do we  do?...  blow a hol;e  where the Wee one  marked.. o blow one here.. this has to be a HAll way here...

    "Listen to Shade, he has demonstrated a built in sensory system we don't understand.  He knows what he's doing."

Roy nodded.  "Got no reason to doubt him...and he spotted the generator.  Set it up, clock's running.  Garrat, watch for any sudden changes in activity through the windows...anything that looks like they're either bugging out or massing to charge." He'd dropped to a knee, holding the rifle pointed at the elevator in case anyone tried coming out of it before Hemsly was ready to blow charges.

  Hemsly nods to Shade,Right then... show  where ye  want it LAddie....

 Shade shows the  circle he   drew  with this  boot knife...  , Hemsly got   some   tools out  and  set the charges, though he worked  fast, he never  seemed to be sloppy, fingers  moving like a piano  player..

  when He was finished he    waved    Shade  over  with him.....If there is a  room there?...  the ceilin's  gonna  drop straight  down..um...more or less.... he strugs.

 If there is Bloody load bearing wall there, or  head Joists,  we're gonna have  to  wiggle  through  small holes... that's  why we try an' cut through inta p-ways on ships..

 He Looked at Shade, who just  bleeped  and shrugged  and nodded.

  Hemsly sighed,..So?.. On Three,,, I'm gonna  trigger the Generator, then  the  lift... they ,may think  one thing  caused the other..  Then the Roof.. its  all gonna happen  fast...so be  ready....

 making sure everyone covers... he says into his COMs.....one.....two.....three.... and there is a click... then..anther   click.. he frowns the giggles,left the Bloddy saftey switch on....

 ..right ..... THREE....

  The  Generator  Blows  apart.. the  sides  fly off  like   banana peels  and     the Middle tunrs into a  fire  BAll that fall over the edge ...

..The Lift   went off  a heart beat later the  cable  singing like a deep seas  fishing reel, until there is no Cable left on the  pulley


almost... all at once the Circle Blows, almost the whole crner of the  roof  falls  in there is a scream  below.

  running over  to the Hole they see a crushed Ben  with  two pairs  of  fee under the  2 foot think metacrete  and   twisted  metal,

  Shade  looked  down and Looked at Hemsly.. and bleeped  something while  showing green eyes.

 ..ok>  so ye  knew where a room was......

 Will points to the   bent  joists,..Heck.. we  can  even walk down the   ramp it made.

…………………………………..

  there  was  sounds  of  activity  below  as the generator  Just missed  crushing some guards,   the fire was starting on bushes  near the square  buildings.

 …………

 across the way  the party people looked at the light  display and  the  faint   sound of  explosions..

   "we do have increased activity.  Right now they are still in wtf mode but might start getting some brain cells together soon."  Garrat settles the scope on the guards.  He takes his time and focusses on easy shots and attempts to snipe a couple.

    A guard  Is Twisted  around  as  a  round comes  down and HAmmers  Him, causing      other  guards  ro look ariound,  at least a Dozen worts  are  runnign about   now  and   lights  are coming  on .. and  red   lights   flashed...

   down , close to the   Hole.  Shade looked down with  his SMG  ready. Will and  Hawke    watched  smoke starting to   seep though the Elevator  doors.

  ..looks  like a fire?

 Hemsly nods  with a  grin,..Friction from  the lift rails?... Oil.. and  whatever  happened  when it hit the bottom, that  shaft?.. be just like a bloody   chimney
