CH1-15 Home Invasion.
Clay drives the van into the quiete leafy surburban street and parks up at the end of a row of cars. He parks the car carefully with the wheels facing out ready to go. He then jumps out pulling on his new fireproof(?) works jacket over the top of the painters overalls. "Its a bit like a movie isn't it" he says to no one in particular. "I'll put the keys on the floor infront of the drivers seat that way anyone who needs them can get them."
Closer to the house it is possible to see there are 2x Toyota 4x4's parked on the driveway one of which is the battered one which you saw outside the shop. The other clay says was parked on the street while he was watching the house. There are lights on in the house but they are all upstairs. There are no external lights on.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
"Should we wait until they turn out the lights before we try anything?" asks Liz. "Although, as long as they're on, maybe they'll reveal something." She takes out her camera and uses the zoom function to try to see in through the lighted upstairs windows, adjusting for the light levels.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
We can try to sabotage their car tiers somehow. Maybe a quick cut on the side that is not facing the house.
Jacob suggest
Clay?

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
A clearly nervous Clay stares at Jacob. "What? You want me to go out there and slash their tyres? Why don't you? then clearly as an afterthought "... Anyway, I thought the plan was to take look around before we did anything. We slash their tyres, then decide to come back another time and they'll know something is up."
Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
slashing the tires means they will not follow us in case we flee the house.
Jacob replies.
We are already here so why circle the house and drive back home. If we are going on entry by force we better get over with it.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
"Clay is right," says Liz, peering through the camera. "We need to wait until we're sure we're going to go in tonight before we slash their tyres. Hang about, I think I see something."

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
As the group discusses what to do next the light in the master bedroom goes out.
Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Liz makes sure that the flash is turned off and discreetly snaps a picture of the man. "There's that strong younger chap in that window," she says, "flexing his muscles at the mirror. He's shirtless, and there's tattoos all over his back."

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
While Liz is watching the man stops what he is doing and heads for bed - the light goes off.
"While we waite for everyone to go to sleep shall we head around the back and take a gander there" says Clay

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
"Yes, sounds like a good idea," says Liz. "We'll have to mind the motion sensors, of course, and see if we can disable them. If Elira is inside, she's got to be in one of the back bedrooms, and I'd bet on the smaller one. The man I saw was in the front bedroom next to the master bedroom, and I'm pretty sure she's not in the master bedroom either."

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Clay and Liz move off through the overgrown garden next door, and around to the rear, from the cover of a rather poorly kept hedge they get a clear view of the back of the house.
I took a look last time and none of the downstairs windows have security locks and you could put the back door in with a good solid boot. We might even be able to jemmy it, which would be quieter.
OOC: looking at the plans with the front of the house at the bottom they move around to the right, which has them moving through the gardens of the empty house next door.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Liz nods and uses her camera again to zoom in and peer at the upstairs windows, but she can only barely make out what's within.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Jacob follows nervously from behind, holding tightly his jacket and the concealed weapon within it.

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Liz gets the vague impression of a man sitting on a chair or perhaps on the side of a bed, but as she watches the light in the room goes out, plunging the back garden into darkness.
Clay shifts nervously in the cover of the hedge. "What now then?"

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Liz points up at the window. "There was a man sitting in that room," she whispers. "If Elira's here, she's prolly in the other bedroom. Let's root through their rubbish next and see what we can find."

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Clay points over to the bins "they're there just to the left of the back door. Problem is they are nearly directly under another security light" Looking at where Clay is pointing its possible to just make out a black shape above the doorway.
Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
"I'd better not try it," says Liz. "I can be a klutz sometimes. Now, if those security lights are hooked up to some sort of computerised security system, I'm your girl. Maybe they have a wi-fi network in this house, and most people don't bother to secure them, making it very easy to gain entry. Even if it is secured, I may be able to crack it."

Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
Greg looks toward the house, tryiing to determine if there were any other lights on inside. He whispered, "Looks like they're all going to sleep, which would be very fortunate for us. I still like the idea of killing power to the house, and that would eliminate the security lights as well." The doctor started looking at the wires that fed the house and follow them back to a transformer nearby.
Re: IC - CH1 - Home Invasion.
There do not seem to be any power lines visible from the rear of the house.
