November 11, 1923
New York, NY
Rex walked about the city making his way to the ceremony. He was hoping to connect with a few old colleagues he knew, and to see if there was any intelligence that could still be applied to current events.
He walked about the city (it was a cool brisk day - not worth getting a cab) as he saw a group of young men in clean suits making their way towards an office building. It was the bulge of a pistol beneath the suit jacket that caught his attention...
(Perception roll)

"I really must see about carrying *something* for self defense..." he mutters, following their movement with his eyes, keeping his head directed away, trying to keep it from being too obvious.[rand=52969009843107115313374212987781051276874650654456928368001338752]

Rex, you see the men duck into the office building - it's a Westinghouse building.

"Oh for the..." sighs. "Colonel Stanson would scold me if I left this alone...'Young man, show some military bearing and take the problem in hand'," he mutters, already changing course towards the building.

Rex enters the building to find 4 men were holding up the office - each armed with a revolver. The would-be bandits were demanding people turn over their wallets, purses, and jewelry. The other two were racing down the corridor, clearly intent on some other target.
(perception and Research skill rolls please)

Rex realizes that Westinghouse keeps some of its patent offices in Manhattan, and that it's likely that the true goal of this robbery is of the patent vault.

"Makes sense, especially if they have patents still classified from the first war..." he mutters, trying his best to avoid catching attention to detour to the patent office.

Rex approaches and hears the two goons tearing through file cabinets. He realizes he'll need to be stealthy if he wishes not to get their attention.
(Prowl roll and then take an action if successful)

[dice=100] out of 86% for Prowl
If successful, and the goons don't have firearms, he'll try to move closer, otherwise just shadows them.[rand=684698513192237774942129052006317593764343221287193071817677139]

One of them has a revolver, but it's tucked in a shoulder holster. They are looting the filing cabinets.

Hoping his footsteps are quiet during the short run, leaps turning his body into a sideways body block to nail both of them into the filing cabinets, and if not knock both out, at least knock them around a bit.[rand=554923528348737194256565369414891691515715862127542117334362018577]

Quickly pulls the pistol out of the belt of the thug carrying heat, gestures cautiously. "Gentlemen, what brings you in to interrupt business today?"

The thug replies. "What are you, a cop?"
His friend replies. "I ain't tellin ya nothin', ya joick!"
