IC: Ch 2. Welcome to Rockport

August 1921, Boston.
A dead guard at the abandoned chapel, a stolen statue revealing strange numbers and a burnt postcard. A strange night sighting by a Harvard professor only 2 days later has led to too many coincidences to ignore.
Dr. Chambers is forming another MAPS team, and you have been called.

Richard freeze's in his tracks stunned at the image of the two boys transforming into cyclope's
Sanity roll,sanity = 50 sanity roll [dice]0[/dice]
Richard pulls out both of his guns as he starts backing up towards the car. He see's Loosa standing there chanting in front of the two transforming boys, thoughts of his mother enter his mind, he shakes his head to clear it and prepares to take a shot if either of the cyclopese takes a swing at Aunt Loosha. As he is preparing his aim with the gun in his right hand he suddenly realizes he hasnt pulled out his second gun with his left hand but his flask.
Ben,this is my special flask

As Warren screams, he pulls out his knife from his satchel, drops the satchel to the ground and charges at the 2 Cyclops creatures while screaming something unintelligible along the way..

Regretfully, Alyssa had wished she brought her camera bag with her, leaving it in the side-car between Aunt Loosa's legs. Without any warning that had provoked this sudden escalation, Alyssa helps usher Aunt Loosa back to the motorcycle.

The other children cheered him on. His name voiced in a steadily rising pace, urging him to do it. “Am I really doing this?”, the young boy thought and struck his victim with a rock.

Scott,This stuff just keeps getting more and more weird. Your mind snaps again, this time you: [dice]0[/dice]
.
Scott says, "Alyssa dear, get your motorcycle ready. Off you RUN."
Then says,
"Um...what?! Everyone back in the vehicles! We need to get out of here!"
Then continues, "Really, this isn't the time or place for this!"
Finally he screams something but no one can make out what.
.
Scott,You will just stand there and repeat what everyone else says for a while.

A booming voice comes from the identical Cyclops, but it sounds like 1 voice, "This is the best MAPS has to throw at me, HAHAHAHA!!" and each of them rears their clubs back as if to strike.

Richard Listen Roll,listen chance = 58% listen roll [dice]0[/dice] so this was a success. Unless you tell me that I aim at something else because of what I heard I will take my shot at the Cyclopese. Handgun chance = 75% Handgun roll [dice]1[/dice] another success. I will leave out what I am specifically hitting for you to add that if needed in your description of what happens with my actions.
Richard yells to the others "Get back to the vehicles!" As he fires a shot that hits its mark and continues to back up towards the car he was driving.

When Eddie sees that Warren is charging one of the creatures, he realizes that they can't simply all get out of here, and he has to help him out. He draws his revolver, leans out the window, and shoots the cyclops that Warren didn't engage, so as to keep from accidentally hitting him. The bullet doesn't do much daamge.

"This is the best MAPs has to throw at me?! HAHAHAHA!"" Scott cries maniacally, a font of spittle flying from his lips. "Get back to the vehicles!"

Despite his proclamation, he makes no visible effort to return to the cars, but rather paces the stretch of road he occupies in ever-tightening circles.

Listen,65% 1d100 → [40] = (40) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4594582/ Well at least IC was kind to me on one roll :)
France 1918, and screaming a war cry, I rush towards the tall German machine gunner brandishing my wickedly sharp fighting knife, my rifle long forgotten back in the trench.
"C'mon on then you kraut sausage munchers"

For a moment I fall silent, listening intently, before continuing my mad assault on the German trench, just behind me I see comrades spitting curses and shouting something in German.
Ben,I will launch myself at the enemy in mad abandon. Fighting Knife 45%: 1d100 → [89] = (89) http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/4594584/ Missed! Oh well it probably wouldn't have done any damage anyway

Warren,I love it. In the back of your mind something registers, but your just not sure what. Something is wrong, but then again, there are germans to be killed. You will figure it out when you come out of this, assuming you don't die.

Norman cowers in the car. He wants to help Warren and Scott, but he has no weapon or idea of how to even begin to. The pure terror of the situation spares him from thinking, and his mind has reverted towards the basic need of his own survival.
