*Jeckle notices the change in Tiger and then turns to look at Khris and counts on her fingers and comments ' roughly? .. maybe about 6 boxes .. with 5 full sheets. each can be broken into 9 if needed. just need to carry one of these'
*she tosses a strangely colored item out of one of the many pockest she carries. it appears to be a band of colored beads about an inch wide.
'electric? .. hmm ... could try a countermeasure .. wide band spectrum would be a harness with attachments to head, hands and feet. with enough supplies i can rig up a few sets. got a way to lower body temps about 10 degrees. that should help with some body heat detectors. those are usually geared to a standard 98.6 ... i've dropped it down to about an 85 .. .. only lasts about 10 minutes before it needs to recharge for about an hour. those are hard to rig up. my supplies are on the truck'
*she shrugs and then seems to forget people as her mind shifts into 4 directions. each runs a part down and then disects the 'how to and her fingers move as she rethinks it and then nods 'yeah .. i'll need some of those heart monitor things ... anong with a list of these things .. if you want at least 6 rigs'
*she starts to scribble the items she needs to make the item

[[now to hope she MAKES her rolls for htecontruction and such ]]

Khris shook his head slightly." I was thinking more or a disruptor of some sort. heard they send out a signal that scrambles anything in range without hardened circuits." Forgetting his place, he smirked at Tiger, " I like your eyes better before."

"Thank you," Tiger grins. "I'm afraid blue eyes would stick out, especially since I'm sure all of you will be quite different than what those troops are used to."

' ... ' * Jeckle looks at Khris and stops writing and then tears the page off and crumples it. ' .. right. sorry. forgot you're not like him. you want area and not personal field .. lemme rethink this then'
*she paces and thinks and then looks at Khris and then away and shakes the head. its clear she's discussing it in her head as she raises the pen to the pad and then lowers it without writing anything.
*she's obviously changing gears in her thinking as she pauses and then looks up and studies a camera in a hall and then stands closer and then leans on the wall under it and seems to be thinking with eyes closed and tapping her lips.
*for the camera down the hall when it pans to catch her, she's still staying still and waiting for the others. her mind is kicking over a few things and then nods and then pushes away.
*she smiles at Khris 'hope you got asteady hand for the new one .. you'll need it. we done boss? .. i need to go shopping and top up various things in my arsenal' the leg braces on her legs seem a bit garish, but it only enables her to get about faster in places AND its a perfect cover for the fact that metal detectors squeals for her.
- - -
*shopping list includes 'tools' to work/finish the projectile shooter that carries a small EMP to take out the camera and the others that are a part of its support system with the backfeed.
*a set of darts with explosives about the body .. remote detonator. [3 spare sets that are 'normal' ]
[minor things like that .. but enough supplies to build a bigger bomb if needed or finish a few more projects on the job]

Tiger nods to Jeckle, "Yes, we are done. We can discuss anything else on the plane ride over. See everyone at the plane in two hours."
***
About an hour and a half later, when Tiger arrives at the plane, it has already been painted in Chinese military colors and new guns have been installed. Tiger has a brief argument with the chief mechanic over the installation of the guns without her consent, but realizing she doesn't want to waste time swapping them back out again, she decides to drop it.
Strongbow is already waiting at the plane when Tiger arrives, all she has is a duffel bag, a coat, and a long bag containing her bow unstrung.

" Tiger, thats not a plane." Khris said flatly, looking at the Catalina. It was obvious he'd never flown in one before. " That's a bloody canoe with wings."

Tiger looks at the plane. "World War Two design." She says appraisingly, "Retractable landing gear for amphibious operation. Good armor, self-sealing fuel tanks. Only needs two crew to fly, but seats nine easily and has good gun positions. She can carry bombs, torpedoes, a good cargo load, and is effective at search and rescue. I can land this on a grass field, a lake, or on calm ocean. And the range is over 2,000 miles."
"These are still in use as fire fighting aircraft sixty years after the initial design - an incredible workhorse. A Lear jet could never land on that island airstrip. A helicopter is far to short range to fly across the ocean. A STOL craft might be able to manage a short field, but they burn up all their fuel to take off or land - we would need fueling tankers standing by whenever we went up and we still couldn't land on water."
She looks at Shroud, "Besides nearly every military has a few of these - including China. I'm hard pressed to think of another aircraft we could take to the island which would be believable as Chinese. The Chinese wouldn't use a V-22 Osprey or a Shin Maywa."
Tiger grins, "Harrier jets and Osprey's only see action under certain conditions - this is the kind of plane they use when the conditions get tough. And, if you paint her black for a night mission, she kinda looks like a big, fat, mean pelican."

" Doesn't make me like it any more." Khris sputtered. Then he thought of something, and smirked, " Jeckle, if we get chance, I'll teach you how to make some old school explosives, providedthe bosskitty thought to recce some C-4. Show you the kind of stuff I learned to play with growing up. " He looked at the others, still smirking. " You folks don't mind if we play with explosives on the plane to kill time, do you?"

*Jeckle holds out a small pistol to Shroud. 'hope it works the way you want. it hasn't been field tested .. yet. enjoy'
*she pauses and looks at Shroud at his comment about explosives on the plane. her eyes shift to look at Tiger and then the others. behind Khris' back she rolls the eyes and then gives a deadpan straight face look at Khris.
'really? .. on the plane while its flying? .. but .. what happens if ... wonder if my chute suit would last for a few hours to get me to shore when it explodes .. ' *then whacks him in the shoulder lightly as if horrified.

Khris looked at Cerebrum for support as he tucked the new toy in his pocket, " Would I do anything to put the rest of you at risk?" He asked, instinctively rubbing where Jeckle had hit him. " Besides, I still have lots of things I want to do before I retire." He voice trailed a bit as his eyes shifted to Tiger as he spoke, but he realized he was looking at her and snapped himself out of his daze. " Fine, if it makes everyone happy, I'll wait until we get there."

*Jeckle simply grins as she turns away to examine her boot toe .. and wipes at the underside of her nose to hide the grin. then composes herself enough to look up with an innocent face and says to Khris 'oh goody goody gosh ... i was ..'
*then she moves, more front instinct that anything he'ld do. her twin hated when she did that and is reacting to the fact he'ld be taking a swing just then ...

Tiger raises a dark eyebrow at the suggestion of explosives and smiles when she can't hold a straight face. She is already wearing her Chinese military uniform, though she keeps three revolvers on as well, the Pilgrim's gun at her hip and her pair of Ruger's, one in a cross draw holster and the other in a shoulder rig.
She notices Shroud looking at her and unconsciously glances at her left hand, still trying to get used to her old disguise.
"Alright, lets get loaded up. Don't drink all the booze I brought, that is supposed to be a distraction." She says in a half-serious tone. It would kill ten men to drink all the booze she has loaded aboard the plane.

* Jeckle is aware of one thing. Khris will most likely get back at her for the comment she made in a Care Bare voice. of the twins on the show, she was more like Tugs. the one that explored and discovered things.
*She shakes her head to clear it and thn refocuses on the job at hand. play time is over. time for hard work is at hand now. she looks at the booze and comments ' ... geez, that would last me about 40 years. unless i made an engine that usd that for fuel .. should be easy enough to do ... '

" You even draw up the prints, and I'll pitch you out the door somewheres over the south china sea." Khris replied as he followed Jeckle aboard. Though the plane was larger than it looked, he still wasn't comfortable on it, and stowed his gear before taking a seat and pulling out his mp3 player.

*Jeckle just settles into a seat and draws the knee up and rests her chin on it. she says nothing more and laces her fingers together and then stares at the floor instead.
*if she says nothign, maybe it will be fine. she dislikes planes, and doesn't want to be on one again. but she doesn't have a choice. she would prefer to drive or walk rather than fly.
