UNMASKED - ISSUE#1 (Isadora and Stormshadow)
The reptilian's surprised by Isadora's reaction. "Well, I guess at least one of you should think rationally. You reproduce like insects, after all."
He then turns to Stormshadow.
"You have seen this place. The woman has uncovered sensitive information about Quaid. I do not recommend staying here for long: she has friends. Her alternate identity has ensured so." - both Storm and Isadora recognize the term "Guerrilla". It belongs to an independent media reporter - or group of reporters - that denounce corruption around City Nouveau. If the creature's speaking the truth, it's a group, no doubt.
"Misty Quaid's the only lead we have to find another, a Douglas Quaid. LOng ago, he joourneyed to our homeland - an admirable feat for a feeble human. After remaining with us, he spoke of disaster, extinction. We did not believe him... Until recently. This is why I must find him, and Misty should know his whereabouts."
Isadora's senses give even more away. On the penthouse, the strong woman pressures Misty.
"Where is he, girl? Where is Douglas?"
"It doesn't happen like this, Martha. Doug's the only one that can shut is off. You know it. Besides, I'm more concerned with Jim and Stan... Stan vanished a while ago... He's just waking up, major headache. Sunken Chinatown, he says. F. Lee and a strange doll are with him..."
"Luminous Path, you reckon? What does Shangguan wants with you guys?"
"Ain't it obvious, Martha?" - Misty seems irritated. "Little Q's sending me all these desperate messages, now! You said it was ok, but he's being taken!"
"Little Q has friends..."
"You know, it would be a lot easier if..."
"No one can know she's here... The city crew will have to do, Misty! She's supposed to be at.."
Suddenly, the windows break inside, as if stones had been thrown through the glass. Storm counts four of them at the same time. The things start hissing, and gass pours profusely, filling up the room.
[Ok, I'm gonna need that perception roll, as usual, to see if you guys are surprised or not! that's DC 10 for Storm and 12 for Isadora - after all, she's paying attention to something else! Afterwards, initiative! Let's heat things up a bit! This also counts as a complication - plus one hero point each!]
