Raining Bullets

[The GrandMage]

Jim Hoffa

He glared at Forte, and rolled his eyes. "You weren't watching me closely, were you? I deal with explosives. My skills only include blowing shit up. You want a fucking marksman, then go talk to Vixen. And I don't carry around a vest of explosives, you idiot. I'm not a fucking terrorist."

He glared as Forte went about doing what people just shouldn't be able to do. Jimmy looked at Vixen, motioning towards him. "And just how the fuck does he do that? It takes several milliseconds to digest information from sources, and several more to react. How the fuck can he actually speed that system up, which is the only possible fucking way to do that?"

I was so close to the gangplank, but my time was running out. I was trying my best to get to the gangplank. My Colt Commando making sure that the people coming down from there were dead. But all goog things come to an end. Thats when everything sped up again. I was out of bullet-time. I rolled behing a couple of steel barrels, and a bunch of crates. My shoulder was grazed twice, and my calf managed to also get grazed. It burned like hell.

Vixen

She shrugged at Jimmy, "Good drugs? speed perhaps? Mentally ill? Dropped on the head? Pause buttons? Who knows.." She turned to her left and fired to shots, hitting two guys between the eyes and dropping them. Yes, there was two bullets and two guys, hehe. She turned back to Jimmy, "Perhaps he doesn't need our help if he can manipulate time thusly?" She turned and fired a few more rounds, hitting one in the thigh and another guy in the ass. Grinning she popped out her clip and put in a new one.
"Well.. Shall we advance on the 'love boat'?"

She sat back, pulled out a cigarette and lit it up. Smoking while she watched Forte dodge that way and that. She was content to sit here and watch, only having to shoot occasionally.

"This is the longest route I've ever taken to get a fuckin' file.. Hell just read the last entry in the gawd damned book already!" She called out to Forte. This whole step by step shit was for bored people. She could be screwin right now instead she was being shot at...

I searched around my coat for a second, and took out a grenade that I got from Jimmy's van. Waiting for the right moment, I pulled the pin, and tossed it behind me, at a large group of smugglers. A large explosion drowned out the screams. I stood up, and signaled Vixen, and Jimmy, "c'mon people, let move it! get over here!". There was clear path for them to come over, but I was afraid that they wouldn'y get here without at least one bullet wound. I could only hope that one of them also could do what I did.

ooc: how did you guys know that time was slowing down? it should appear as if everything should be moving regulary for you guys.

"The Love Boat? Fuck that. I always hated that show. Let's go cancel the stupid series. And maybe there's a point to all this. What, exactly, I have to clue. I only met Forte's dad once. And if you ask me, they're both fucked up in the head."

He turned at the explosion, and frowned. "Forte, if you stole that-!" He turned, burying a few bullets in a few thugs, and then started towards the boat.


OOC: Dude, if time's slowing for you, that means you're moving faster than your environment. It doesn't take a genius to tell that you're moving far too fast. 'Look, he's a blur! Wait just one fucking second. How the hell...?'

 

[Sweetp4u]

Vixen

She smirked at the whole thing, firing her gun at any near her and then some, she walked towards the boat. Swinging first left to hit and then right to drop another. She wouldn't waste her energy running and trying to dodge bullets.. Wasn't possible. Walking along she picked up a machine gun and let loose a wild spray on the last group advancing their way. A few bullets struck some weird looking containters and blew up. Ducking down and covering her face, she waited for the flame to die down a second before standing and watching some guy run screaming towards the docks. He lept off the pier and into the churning water below. Shrugging her shoulders, she kept the machine gun and started up the gang plank.
They were outta bad guys til they got on board...

Forte Dodder

ooc: hold on a minute there Grandmage. Who ever said that I was going at super-speed. I may have said that time is slowing down, but that also included me. I'm moving at a regular speed, its just my brain thats going fast. Everything around me seems to be going in slow-motion, including me.

ic: I provided some back up, by shooting some smugglers down. I called to them, "hurry up guys. Its not like I have infinite bullets you know". I quickly reloaded, and shot some more. When they reached the gangplank, I quickly ducked for cover. A hail of bullets almost got me.

 

[The GrandMage]

Jim Hoffa

OOC: Dude, the only way you can get enough information to experience the environment slowing down or going into 'slow motion' is to have your brain firing electrical shots at a rate faster than normal. These electrical shots also control the body. Either choose one: you're going faster than the environment, or, you're violating the laws of physics and I have to blow the entire city up again. Is it really a tough choice?

IC: Grumbling about the security he marched up the gangplank after Eve. Forte was, who knows, who cares. Supposedly Eve took out everyone else, and unless this was the mob's luxury yacht, he doubted there were that many people. Most likely the rest would be in strategic positions hidden throughout the ship and not running around the halls like idiots.

But, then again,....they were idiots.

Vixen

ooc: lmao cute guys

IC:

She stopped half way up the plank and turned around. Shoving Jimmy against the railing she locked lips with him, after a few minutes of a heated kiss, she backed off.. "Just incase I dont get another shower later.." She winked at him, and headed up the plank once more.

who wants to be stuck on the dock shooting 'bad guys' for the next four pages?

 

[The_high_king]

Forte Dodder

ooc: not fimiliar with the term, "akimbo style", are you Grandmage?

ic: They were after us, and we were ahead them. We had to get below deck, and fast. Unless we wanted to risk having to just slaughter everybody of course. I looked around for any type of entrance. I blindly ran toward the first door I saw. By doing so I knocked down several people who were behind it. I raised an eyebrow, "oops, wrong door". I quickly closed it, and locked it. I turned around, "how the hell do we get below deck guys".

Jim Hoffa

OOC: IGNOTUM PER IGNOTIUS!! Shush thy mouth before I lay low your thread with a good game of Sink. Besides, why should I listen to someone who can't spell 'familiar'? And how big is this boat, anyway? I think I'm picturing it far too large.

IC:

He smiled at her after that kiss. "Oh, trust me, I'll make sure you do."

And then they were off. Jimmy fired a few shots at whoever Forte's dealing with. Once they were onboard, Jim pointed after Forte was done.

"How about the stairs? The one's over there? That go down, perhaps?"

 

[The_high_king]

Forte Dodder

ooc: so a spelling error makes me a idiot does it? and yes, its a big, dark, stealthy ship. Its the type of ship only a daughter of a famous, and dead mafia boss could afford *hint**hint*.

ic: The stairs. The stairs that seem to be conviently opened for us to waltz in. I didn't really trust those big empty stairs. I turned back to my colleagues. I then looked up, and saw the nozzle of a sniper rifle, pointed toward those stairs. The type of rifle that said, "I'm waiting for you", all over it. I silently signaled them by pointing up.

 

[The GrandMage]

Jim Hoffa

OOC: No, that doesn't make you an idiot. It's just a side effect.

IC:

He looked up, and frowned. He pulled forth an object, turning to Forte and Vixen. Putting a finger to his lips, he motioned to cover their eyes as he held the flash grenade out, holding the handle tight and pulling out the pin.

"On three, okay?"

 

[Sweetp4u]

Vixen

She nodded her head, "alright on three" She turned and shielded her eyes from the flare, getting ready to run for the stairs. Checking her clip she made sure her ammo was full, and one in the chamber. She glanced at Jimmy then Frote, here goes nothing.. Hopefully they lived through this..



ooc:LOVE ONE LINERS!

Kinda lost what to do..

 

[The_high_king]

Forte Dodder

I shielded my eyes with my coat, and shut them tightly. I awaited the bang, and boom. The boom as in running for the stairs. I took put away my colt commando, and took out my Ingrams. I had two Ingrams now, and couldn't wait for a proper field test. I kept silent, and prepared to run for the stairs when the time came.

 

[The GrandMage]

Dr. Mitch

He'd been following Forte around, sneaking into better positions as they distracted the gangs. Now, he was guarding the stairs he'd cleared out for them. After that, he wouldn't be able to help anymore. Suddenly, there was a brilliant flash. He fell back, trying to figure out why he couldn't see all of a sudden.

"A flash grenade!?" And that's when he heard the gunshot.


Jim Hoffa

The bullet tore through Forte's back, ripping out his front with a spray of blood. Jimmy dropped the thermal goggles to the ground as he fired another shot into Forte from behind. He looked over at Vixen, his face emotionless.

"Please, donb't hold this against me."

He turned back to Forte, who was having trouble seeing. "Forte, this is your only change. Hand over the old man's journal, and give up."

 

[The_high_king]

WHAT THE FUDGE?!

ooc: I'm really hoping that when say back, you mean shoulder blade, or something. I really hope your not talking about my spinal cord, or neck here. So please clarify, "behind", and you know that I'm not one to just, 'give it up'.

 

[The GrandMage]

-Feh.-

 

[The_high_king]

ooc: you killed me didn't you? I'm dead... I can't believe it! Its over!

 

[The GrandMage]

-Edited for Friction-

 

[The_high_king]

ooc: FAIR CHANCE?! You said that I was shot right through the stomach, and the acid was damaging my lungs. Unless you have a medical staff, and some surgeons, then maybe I'd still be alive! You once told me to not mess with your character, and now you just get him in the gut when he least expects it, and call it a fair chance!

 

[The GrandMage]

--Error! Logic cannot compute!-

 

[The_high_king]

Forte Dodder

ooc: Good golly Grandmage. Calm the fuck down. I'm not the type of person who bickers, and bitches all the time. If you want to have less violence, and less shooting, then just tell me, and slow it down a tad. If you want to know if I skimmed through posts, I don't. I read them straight through, and a second time if neccessary. All this time I thought you shot me cause I did something, "unrealistic", again.

ic: I opened my eyes, but my vision was a blur. A bullet had penetrated my gut, and i was bleeding like bottle pouring wine. I reached for the painkillers, and poped some in my mouth. It only helped ease the pain by a little bit. I turned around, and saw Jimmy looking down at me. Jimmy wanted the journal, and he knew it was a fat chance that I was going to give it to him. I replied weakly, "sorry Jimmy, you know i can't do that". For some strange reason I didn't want to shoot Jimmy. In fact, I owed Jimmy... a lot. Hes been there for me with his wacky explosives, and criminal connections. Maybe I could make an exception. I took out the journal, "you can look, but you can't touch". My hand reached my colt like lightning, and paused, "and mean it, no touching". My face was dead serious. Perhaps dead was not the best choice of words here.

 

[The GrandMage]

OOC: I'm going to kill you. I really am. "I don't skim!" And yet, you seem to ignore the fact that I said if you'd quit your bitching, I'd edit out the after-Forte's death post and we could go back to just after you've been shot. But no, you fucking reply to the death post, when I'm already all the fuck outside the boat.

Stop skipping every third word and pay attention! E-D-I-T. Remember that? Jesus Fucking Christ. And Jimmy's not going to steal your fucking weapons. Rewind the action adventure movie you're trying to star in, realize how that fucking Matrix-like camera motion works in real life, and go back to the point just after the flash grenade goes off.

Ready? Lights! Camera! Action! And this time, people, can we try to do it in one take? The producers thinking about canning the project.

 

[The_high_king]

ooc: All edited now. Hope its better. Now, lets just put this all behind us.
