Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
Jason Baker made his way around for one last look around the main floor but things looked secure.
Jason could feel the tension leave his shoulders at the thought of heading back to base and, in theory, home...

McBain zipped up his fly and spat on the floor. It seemed like everything was winding down upstairs and no action to speak of. He muttered under his breath and decided to make a cursory last look around, not really expecting to find anything.

McBain read the manifest and spat again on the floor. "Pots and pans?" he practically shouted at Cross. "This is bullshit. Where are the bad guys and our supplies? We're wasting our time here."
McBain made ready to leave, launching a contemptuous kick towards the crate of kitchenware.

That dude is like a mad dog! Baker contemplates. I should have seen it during last night's poker game but, apparently, this guy is here to play at a different level!...
Baker remains calm, continuing to peruse through the area but now keeps his eye on McBain...
This guy could get a brother killed with his temper and all....
Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
In the warehouse-
"Wait a minute!" said Cross. "Pots and pans? I have a feeling we'll find something else entirely in there. Let's get that crate open." He found a crowbar that had been left lying around and tried to pry open the crate's lid. However, it was sealed a bit too tightly even for someone with his rippling muscles. "They really didn't want anyone opening this crate. Here, one of you try." He held out the crowbar.

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
McBain, a little surprised about Cross' reaction watches his superior struggle against the crate.
"Gimme that bar," he says confidently. "Ain't no problem."
For several seconds, he heaves on the crowbar before giving up.
"Must be something wrong with the bar," he mutters unconvincingly. "Maybe we should blow the thing."
He starts looking around for explosives.

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
Baker watches Cross and McBain struggle with the crate and, once McBain drops the bar, picks it up to give it a shot...
He tries to jerk the bar against the lock but to no avail...
"Yeah. Gotta be a faulty crowbar..." Baker echos McBain's words. He begins to scour around the floor for some form of explosives as well or even better, another prying tool...

In the warehouse-
"No explosives," said Cross. "We don't want to damage the contents. This thing must be heavily reinforced on the inside, or we'd have been able to get it open. Screw this, let's just carry it back to base. They can force it open there." He got on the radio. "Wagner, any luck? We're going to pull out in a minute."
"I must have triggered a defensive system," she replied. "It formatted the hard drive!"
"Dammit! Well, let's bring the computer back anyway. Maybe the techs can recover the data."
"Okay, I'm on my way." Shortly thereafter, Carolyn came back down the stairs carrying the computer's tower in her arms.

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
McBain looked unimpressed at the enforced ban on explosives but shrugged and grabbed one end of the crate. He waited for Baker to pick up the other end before making off for the exit tunnel.

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
Jason Baker noted McBain looking at him from the one end of the crate and got the message...
Baker shouldered the bolt action rifle he was packing and grabbed the other end of the crate, preparing to carry it back to the exit tunnel with the rest of the crew...

In the warehouse-
"I'll take that," Cross said to Carolyn Wagner. With a shrug, she handed the computer to him. He led the squad back into the shipping container.
Inside the shipping container-
McBain and Baker followed Cross into the container, carrying the crate between them. Carolyn Wagner brought up the rear. "Do you think we gathered enough evidence?" she asked.
"Yeah, we're gonna break this wide open. It's only a matter of time before we identify the criminals and roll them up - if they're still alive, that is."

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
Once safely back at base, McBain starts to look for heavier implements with which to open the crate. It's starting to wind him up and he needs to prove to the others that he can't be defeated by a piece of wood.

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
Jason Baker was relieved to be back at the base and put his end of the crate down...
Whew! I'm glad that's done with. Baker exhaled and leaned against the crate for support. Don't know if I'm just paranoid but I was on edge with Cross in charge and McBain practically bleeding testosterone. I'm glad he's on our side but he is something else! Hey, where did Cross go with that computer tower?
Baker glances around for Cross but then notices McBain looking for a heavier prying tool...
Baker sighs. Duty calls....

Re: IC-GOLD-Martial Law(Gregor/Jason/Carolyn/Peter)
McBain acknowledges baker's assistance with a sort of neanderthal grunt and a shrug. There must be something around here somewhere. An axe would be good.

In the storage compartment-
Gregor spoke into his radio as he led his squad into the tunnel. "This is Airman First Class Cross," he said. "We're on our way back to base with a sealed crate we were unable to open that I believe contains some of the stolen weapons, a ledger with important information, and a computer. The computer's hard drive got formatted when Airman Wagner attempted to hack into it." He paused. "Yes, ma'am." He spoke to his squadmates. "Lt. Wyatt will meet us at the tunnel entrance in the storage room. She's going to bring a cutting torch to get that crate open, and she'll try to find someone who might be able to recover data from the computer."
