Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Moderators: VictoriaSilverwolf, Victoria Silverwolf
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
With the attack underway, Tony pauses. Watching the boat, he waits for it to come into teleporting range.
“Change of plan!” he yells, “I’m going for the boat!”
When possible, he’ll teleport onto the boat, hopefully in the cockpit.
If the boat isn’t visible, ignore the above! Tony will teleport next to the box, attempting to clout any goon standing nearby.

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Zara aims her pistol toward the two goons attacking the animal men. Knowing she doesn't look like much of a threat, she fires a warning shot over their heads, before yelling "Freeze!" (If she do, she tells the animal men to tie them up).
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Liz also takes aim at the goons, pointing her pistol at whichever one Zara did not target. "It's not worth dying for whatever Delgado's paying you," she says. "Whatever it is, we can outbid him."

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
The pilot of the craft is taken by surprise, to say the least, by the sudden appearance of an unknown man in the cockpit. Stunned into letting go of the wheel, he allows the boat to crash into the shore. (As all recall, the only real harbor is on the other side of the island.)jp1885 wrote:

Spoiler:
From inside the cabin, the voice of Ramon Delgado can be heard.
"What the devil is going on out there?"

His companion, obviously in a mindless rage, lunges at Zara, heedless of her weapon.
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Liz tries to mace the goon attacking Zara, but he moves too fast. Fortunately, Zara still has her pistol to fend him off. "Let's just call it twice what Delgado's paying you," she says. "You can begin by stopping your buddy."

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Zara doesn't flinch and puts another bullet into the ground just in front of the goon's feet.
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
“Slight technical hitch!” yells Tony over the engine noise as he slams the boat into reverse and tries to back off the beach.

The guy just nods, and takes a swing at his companion.Mr. Handy wrote:

"Get him, Hammerhead!" Delgado shouts.
The armored figure approaches.
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
"Seriously?" asks Tony, cocking his head. "A tad theatrical don't you think?"
He sweeps his arm across the boat controls in the hope of causing some confusion before preparing to face the mechanical man. His eyes dart this way and that, seeking a way past the brute to attack Delgado (by teleportation if necessary, although he's well aware that it'll affect his fighting ability.)

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
"Just stop moving and siddown!" Zara yells at the remaining goon.
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
"Well done," says Liz to the goon she had just hired. She sprays the mace at Zara's assailant again, this time with more success.

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Activating the beached boat's controls at random creates a rocking effect, a lot of noise, and little else.jp1885 wrote:

"Fool!" he shouts. "We've got to get the U-235 to the cave before it's too late!"

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
With one of the two big men out of commission, the other cracks a wide grin, with a few teeth missing.
"I done good. Pay now."
Meanwhile, a loud ticking sound comes from the metal box.

"Care to explain why?" Tony asks. "In fact, care to explain your presence here full-stop?"

"Uh, guys? It's ticking," Zara says. "We need to stop it or get away from it."VictoriaSilverwolf wrote:Meanwhile, a loud ticking sound comes from the metal box.
Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Liz takes out some money from her handbag and hands it to the goon. "This will do for a start," she says, checking out the box. "You'll get the rest after you help us move this box, as we have to do it urgently. That ticking sound must be a timing mechanism. If there's U-235 in there, and a bomb with it, that'll spread radiation all over the place if it goes off. I'm not sure if my EMP device will work; the bomb may be purely mechanical. I think we'd better get it to the cave post haste."

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
This being a time when enemies must become allies, at least temporarily, Delgado and the big guy both grab the handles of the box and lift.
Fortunately, Delgado proves to be strong enough to hold up his end, and the pair make their way as quickly as they can along the coast, to the southern end of the island.
Between heavy breaths, Delgado is able to speak a few words.
"Must. Drop. In. Pit. Or. Whole. Place. Goes. Up."
He becomes too exhausted to say anything else.
After a time that seems longer than it really is, they reach the cave. It's a massive opening into the bowels of the island, dimly lit inside. At the entrance, Delgado collapses, completely exhausted. His minion is still willing to carry the box deep inside, but even he can't lift it all by himself. The ticking sounds grows louder and more rapid.

Re: Track 9: Born to Be Wild
Naturally, Tony is the first to step in to assist.
