"I am... fine." Thomas shifts his feet in the opposite direction, and marches away.

Silence walks up to the woman, "Excuse me Ma'am, would it be possible to get tickets to HRG sector?" He queries, ready to break out his prized bureaucratic skills if needed.

The woman says, not looking up, "Welcome to Alpha Complex Monorail, the safest form of transportation between sectors." She idly pulls a piece of small wreckage from the earlier train from her hair. "How may I assist you today?"

The woman checks her computer screen. "A one-way ticket from ICK to HRG will cost you 15 expenditure points, 10 for the ticket and 5 for the per-passenger processing fee. How many tickets will you be buying? If that's your med-bot, it can either go free as luggage or you can buy a ticket to keep it with you in the passengers area."


"Please hold still while I scan you, Integ-O-ITY-4." Beta-Max says. "My scan uses ultra-sonic frequencies and passive gamma-ray backscatter. Side effects may include tingling, nausea, and in some rare causes itchiness, vomiting, death, or sudden mood-swings."

Dice roll to see what the outcome will be: 5. For future reference: 6: three points of healing, 5-4: two points of healing, 2-3: one point of healing, 1: Some result that amuses me

"Scan completed. You are suffering from... combat damage and handling an exploding laser pistol. "

Beta-Max begins tending and bandaging Integ's wounds. Surprisingly for such a clumsy looking robot, its movements are quite gentle and skilled. Integ is soon healed up to 75% health.

"You have been a good patient." Beta-Max tells Integ, patting him gently on the head. "Have a lolly-boo.". Beta-Max produces another bright red lollipop and hands it to Integ.

Beta-Max turns to Lanius. "On a scale from one to ten, how would you rate your pain?"

Silence, Thomas, Lanius, Tessla and Integ. That made 5, 30 expenditure points, 35 if they kept the robot close.

Silence turned to his team, "Will we take the robot with us?"

Fenix looks at the bot, then back to Silence.

"I think we should take him."

"I like him, and knowing our luck with injury he'll prove useful. Easier to get on the train than Blackjack, too." Teslaa commented, wandering over to the ticket booth, "Let's take him."

The woman punches buttons on her computer. A shiny plastic ticket prints out of the printer.

She hands the freshly printed ticket to Teslaa.

Teslaa gratefully takes the ticket and give Yotsuba a friendly pat on the head before returning to watch Beta-Max at work.

Silence opts to pay for Fenix, Lanius, Integ, himself and Beta-MAX.

Better pay up now and have the team owe him later.

The woman points at a slot on Silence's side of the counter, waiting for him to insert his cred stick. Once he does, she can begin to work.

The woman punches buttons on her computer. A shiny plastic ticket prints out of the printer. Deja vu is felt all around.

ICK to HRG - 2:00 PM - Five (5) Trouble Shooter Fare

She hands the freshly printed ticket to Silence. "One ticket, five passengers... thirty-five expenditure points have been deducted from your account, leaving you with a balance of 45 credits. Tickets are non-refundable. If for any reason you lose your ticket, new tickets may be purchased onboard the train at a penalty cost of 20 credits per ticket instead of 10. Have an approved level of nice day."


Does anyone want to do anything else before the train arrives?

Silence looks at all of them, "Everyone ready to move? Once we get started we ain't exactly going back."

Anticipating the worst, Thomas huddles behind a stone column to shield himself from any danger that would present itself.

Teslaa pulls Thomas roughly out from behind the column, "Nah, I'm good Silence." She then adds to the Red, "If effluent hits the turbine, which it always does - you're first in line, buddy."

Integ turns to Tesla.
"Are you insinuating something could go wrong? This is Friend Computer we're talking about. He sent us here and he doesn't make mistakes. It is impossible for anything to go wrong."

Thomas wiggled free out of Teslaa's grip and jumped back towards his cover.

Teslaa stuck out a foot to trip Thomas as he fled, "Yes, Friend Computer is infallible. However, we poor clones, are far from it excellence - therefore we are likely to get ourselves into terrible trouble. When that happens, RE Ds go first into the firing line as per Alpha Complex procedure." She explained with a smile.

Beta-Max scans Lanius. 1

"You appear to have been... impaled. Proper medical treatment for bleeding includes applying a tourniquet."

Beta-Max applies a tourniquet to Lanius's neck and begins tightening it, strangling the injured trouble shooter.

They are just as bad as Rocky. Thomas thought as he struggled to reach the corner in which he had been hiding behind.

Lanius manages to articulate some strangled gibberish and roughly shoves Beta-Max off of him. "You're putting the tourniquet in the wrong place! I haven't been impaled through the neck!" As an afterthought, he adds, "You should probably remove the giant pole first, as well."

Lanius struggles 1+Violence+Melee=5 4 2 4 1 6 and manages to get enough breath to cry out for attention, but not enough to pull free of Beta-Max. Perhaps someone else will help him.

Teslaa sighs and attempts to reason with the robot using her programming experience, "Beta-Max, please remove the pole from his body and then reassess your treatment plan -I'd suggest applying the tourniquet to the bleeding area"

Teslaa's efforts 1+Brains+Programming=2 2 5 4 4, I'll be nice and say one success is enough this time causes Beta-Max to stop. It easily pulls the pole out of Lanius. "Reassessing treatment options." 2 Beta-Max slaps a large bandage on the gaping chest wound, healing Lanius to 50%, then hands him a lollipop. "You have been a patient. Have a lolly-boo."

Fenix tries to use the large med kit to heal Lanius and Integ.
