-Longram closes in on the entrance to the weird name-brand big box store, while Ironscales moves towards the other entrance leading into the tower court-

-Albert's characters and Quartz arrive in the parking lot and should probably pick an entrance-

-as Gespenst turbo boosts his way directly into the ruined big box store with an earsplitting crash-

-Somehow, in this mall the lights are still on. The store itself would be large from a human's point of view, but for Gespenst it's small and fairly quaint. The parking lot's on the other end of the building, but fortunately there's a hallway directly to the right that will start taking you that way-

-...Unfortunately, you can also hear the low thrum of tracked drones. Something's in this store, and it heard your dramatic entrance-

-Longram takes cover near the entrance of the big box store as Quartz and Albert enter it alongside Gespenst. The whirring is starting to get louder, but whatever's coming sure is taking its sweet time, because it hasn't quite arrived yet-

-Meanwhile, Ironscales and Lisa enter the tower court. They can distantly hear footsteps and whirring, but can't see anything from where they are quite yet-

-The flickers on the top of the parking garage cease as the rifle(?) that was being rained on withdraws, instead repositioning to where the parking garage connects to the mall itself, it begins the process there of waiting on overwatch-

-The Mysterious Sniper finds itself on the ground floor of the parking lot. Its cloak field will probably work a lot better now that it's under a roof. The sniper has two entrances to choose from; the one that's near the electronics store, or the one leading into the appliance store-

-Ironscales- manages to duck into a nearby jewelry store. In response to your desire to know more, I request you roll Perception-

-Quartz, looks like you might have some success hiding up in the rafters. You aren't exactly out of sight, but at the same time, who would expect to find anyone that far above them?-

Ironscales: -rolls a...12-

-Gespenst manages to take cover ducking behind a shelf full of what look like boxes of water guns, while Quartz manages to hide on top of one of the rafters as two more tracked sentry drones trundle into the main concourse-

-Their turrets are rotating from side to side, scanning for targets... of course, they aren't looking up-

-Meanwhile, in the mall proper, Ironscales and Lisa are able to determine that the footsteps they're hearing elsewhere are moving away, at least for now. The whirring, however, seems to be coming towards them-

-Finally, the Mystery Sniper peers into the appliance store. There's a lot of old, rusting, and otherwise decrepit machines of all types in there - and two more of the quadrupedal robots walking about the store, on patrol-

-Well, Gespenst, they aren't stopping. They are headed directly for the entrance to investigate what just smashed it. Do you head out and smash them both while you still possess the element of surprise, or do you try to avoid a fight and risk being spotted? It should also concern you, Longram, that they are headed right for the entrance, i.e. where you are-

-Quartz doesn't even need to use hearing. He can observe the robots with impunity from his perch-

-Meanwhile, Ironscales can spot another one of the tracked drones progressing into the Tower Court. The way it looks like it's moving, though, it's probably just on patrol. Though this calls into question why an armed drone the size of a dog is guarding a shopping mall.-

-Ges decides that attacking first is always better and rams himself into the shelf to start pushing it along the ground into the first tracked drone-

Lisa: What are these robots even doing here...?

But yeah, I will.

-cloaks herself and tries to sneak up on the patrol drone-
