Tiger takes Patriots armor and steps towards Shroud. "I want to entry into the labyrinth and follow this tracking information. In order to allow that I want you to sneak in, kill the nearest sniper, and take up a cover position. It might take you more than a week to catch one of these guys."
"Once you have succeeded, you call me and stay on the line for ten seconds saying nothing. Any other communication we will take as a call for assistance. We will attempt to penetrate the Labyrinth. When we draw fire, you will cover us. Taking fire from one of their own positions should confuse the snipers sufficiently that they hesitate, although I expect them to be shooting at you in both stages of the mission. I won't send anyone on this mission without armor, so if you can't wear Patriots armor, then I'll send Patriot." Stepping closer, she holds up the chest armor with an inviting smile. She says quietly, "You're both six feet two inches tall. Jeckle, Wind Chill and I are too short and Cerebrum is too tall." She grins, "And I'll still have to fit the armor to you, so if you agree you get felt up in an alley, otherwise you get to sit in the car or the hotel and wait for Patriot to complete a counter sniper mission. What do you say?"
Patriot looks like he is about to say something to Tiger, but holds his tongue, waiting to see what Shroud says first. Instead he takes some food from Jeckle and mutters, "Thanks."

Miranda simply watches quietly, with her arms crossed under her chest.

*Jeckle suddenly realizes her mistake and moves to offer coffee and snacks to Windchill and cerebrum as well. a simple 'sorry .. manners from a barnyard. my bad'
*she then moves to the back seat and settles down and pulls out her doodle pad and starts on the wiring for something not yet fully envioned, but its the board and guts from something else.

Khris' brow furrowed as he looked loooked at Tiger for a moment before taking the chest plate from her. " Bollocks, I hate it when I guilt tripped," he sputtered, looking to the others. " It won't take me a week now that I've seen how they set up when we captured that other one. did you get anything out of him?"

Tiger turns to Patriot, “Post a watch to see that we aren’t disturbed. Everyone else get some rest for a moment. We will need to be ready to go at a moments notice.” Patriot turns on his heel and stalks away without saying anything.
Turning back to Shroud she assesses the sniper’s information in a short factual summary, “He doesn’t know the Minotaur’s identity. He gets into the labyrinth through a big, loud door. He is blindfolded every time. He said Alpha Prime is on an aircraft carrier. The labyrinth is supplied by mutants, and some members of the mutant underground are part of it or that group has been infiltrated. His group is in conflict with the mutant underground. The sniper’s partners had chameleon and shadow meld abilities. A shadowy figure is his contact. The contact is intangible and can teleport. That’s all we got.”
As Tiger talks, she takes out her toolkit and makes minor adjustments to Patriots armor so it is a comfortable fit for Shroud.
“Do you want us to wait here for your confirmation, or should we head back to the hotel? Will you need any supplies or anything?” Tiger asks Shroud.

Miranda thanks Jeckle with a small smile as she takes the coffee and sips it quietly as Shroud and Tiger get ready for the next assigment.

" You decide what the rest of you are going to do, I'll call in when I'm in position. If you do leave, one of take my bike with you. If I get in trouble, I won't need it." Khris replied . He smirked," I'll be okay, I've got lots of ammunition left, but," his smirk grew as his voice lowered," you know a kiss for luck wouldn't hurt."

[Tiger]
She laughs, "You are a bold one. Do good. You don't need luck if you're good. We can talk about 'bonus payments' when you get back. I'm not sure you've earned any kisses yet - we'll see." Tiger gives Shroud a friendly wink. She is still grinning as she turns to Wind Chill.
"And while Shroud starts the next phase of our mission, I think the rest of us could do with an introduction. Wind Chill, you can ask us questions first and then we get to grill you."

' *then its slipped away into a pocket as she leans back and closes the eyes and waiats

Miranda simply looks at Tiger, not smiling as she replies "It would be nice to have a little clearer of a picture of what is going on, since I was thrown into this in the middle and no one has really told me anything."

[Tiger]
"You weren't briefed? Fair enough." Tiger outlines the mission, "A legendary crime lord known as the Minotaur has undue influence over the district. The mayor is facing federal pressure to clean up the city. We were brought in to get the city back on track by eliminating the Minotaur."
She sighs, "We don't know who the Minotaur is, or where. He could even be several people. The mayor's office is very leaky and the district is high tech enough that there is a very real possibility that all our moves are transparent to the enemy. For instance, we were easily tracked when we were interrogating our prisoner. We have made contact with the only group which supposedly once had access to this area," Tiger gestures to her left, "The Labyrinth. The maze of abandoned urban area is so filled with criminals and snipers that most people don't believe we will be able to get inside."
"We will, of course," Tiger adds with calm steady confidence. "We could fight our way in, or Shroud and Patriot are sneaky enough to infiltrate. Getting everybody in without starting a war is the immediate goal. We will follow the leader of the assault team who attacked us and try to gain entrance to their hidden sanctuary in the Labyrinth. Once inside, we will work to find the Minotaur and kill him. If we break the Minotaur's hold on the city, the authorities should be able to make progress cleaning up the place and the feds should be placated."
"If anyone asks, our mission is to find Alpha Prime, a local super hero who went missing recently, possibly inside the Labyrinth. No one is to mention why we are really here. Alpha Prime was responsible for the recession here, by confiscating the illegally acquired technology. The hover cars and stuff you see is just the vestiges of what was once a booming high-tech economy and energy conglomerate. So I wouldn't be glib about mentioning her either."
"Any questions?"

*Jeckle looks over and then stuffs a few pieces of fruit and one of her granola bars into a small belt pouch and then steps out to hand it to Shroud. 'here, in case you get hungry .. it will last a day .. or at least a couple of snacks'
*she then looks over at Windchill and shrugs 'i'm one of the fresh meats, or rookie or whatever gramps wants to call me .. ' *she steps out of range of Shroud with a grin* 'i'm Jeckle .. the toy maker .. '
*Jeckle nods and then moves to stand by the open back door of the car and finishes with ' .. and technically my first outing in the field. i had someone else doing the field testings .. '

Miranda shakes her head at Tiger's first question. "I was only told to meet your team and that I would be briefed by you on the scene." She listens carefully to the explanation and nods "All right, that clears things up."
Miranda nods at Jeckle with a small smile. "Hi. I'm Miranda, or Wind Chill." To Tiger, she asks "You mentioned something about grilling?"

"We haven't been briefed on you either. What are your primary and secondary abilities? Do you require any additional equipment? And at what range do you prefer to work?" Tiger asks.

"Right, what was I thinking." Khris muttered flatly under his breath as he eyed Patriot's departure before making his own. The armor fit was less than perfect, but it was better than nothing as he shrugged and shifted to get used to how it moved. He considered taking his bike closer, but knew on foot would work better and he walked fairly quickly towards the Labyrinth, his meta sensing reaching out to warn him of others nearby.
