Rob looked back at Kix."Yes,perhaps you could take me to your boss..."

Rob grabbed his rifle and walked over to Kix.

T-nex · #**872** 05-23-2005, 05:44 AM

Ooc| I asuma that Arnie is still in the Cafeteria?

"Ehm, right. Follow me..." Kix said, a bit disturbed by the rifle and whent outside.

As they walked, Kix kept looking at Rob, not really saying anything. She was still a bit uneasy with him around, and she didn't like the silence.

"So... what do you plan to do here?" Kix asked, slightly stuttering.

dripik · #**873** 05-23-2005, 06:55 AM

OOC: Yup, still having a meal.

Arnie: "I haven't heard about #7 Slig or anybody lately. Where are they?"

Otto: "How should I know?"

*grabs a water bottle with his mouth and turns it upside down to drink, then puts it down on the table*

Otto: "Never a Slig when you need one."

*Rick arrives back to the lower levels*

Stivik, "How do I know you didn't hear our conversation. It all seems pretty suspicous that you where hiding there.".

T-nex · #**875** 05-23-2005, 07:21 AM

"Well, try asking me some questions about it... Then we'll see if i can answer them." Anni said, and was satisfied with her plan.

She nodded knowingly, whith her arms crossed.

Splat · #**876** 05-23-2005, 07:33 AM

Stivik. "What? So you can just lie about it? Do you think I'm an idiot? Here's a better plan. I'm gonna let you go and if one word of our conversation gets out I'll know who to come to. And I'll make you wish you'd never been hatched."

T-nex · #**877** 05-23-2005, 08:11 AM

"Woow... Someone's moody today... Take it easy, being angry makes you old faster." Anni said, and rolled her eyes, as she walked past Stivik, throwing him an odd look.

Then she snickered and mumbled something for herself.

Splat · #**878** 05-23-2005, 10:40 AM

Stvik growls and heads up to the R+R room and gets his box. There's a flashing yellow light behind the panel. He presses a button and a slightly distorted recording of slig's voice drifts out: "You're not there to stir up trouble yourself."

Stivik growls and presses the play button.

Stivik: "Could you confirm reports of an escape attempt a short while ago. I would also like you to send me some kind of small lie-detector. The muds seem to have no behaviour boundaries. I believe I caught one spying on me."

He presses stop, then send, and then plugs it back onto his belt and heads off to patrol the factory.

A few minutes later he arrives at the meat grinders and stares in shock at the carnage: "What the $h|t happened here?"

the brew master · #**879** 05-23-2005, 10:54 PM

Rob looked over to Kix as they walked towards the cafateria "Well,i'm not sure i guess probably keeping this place together or whatever your boss has for me"

Gretin · #**880** 05-24-2005, 01:42 AM

Groll was slowly walking down a passage (generic passage no.15... or something

) when he found his way blocked.
Sefon was standing in front of him with his hands on his hips.

Groll:"Who are you?"

Sefon:"What? You really are dumb, aren't you?"

Groll scowled (if sligs can scowl that is?) and lifted his rifle.
Sefon put his hand up.

Sefon:"Whoa there, you know what the rules are around this place! Besides, if you can put your memory back together you should be able to figure out what will happen if you try to blow my head off again."

Groll lowered the rifle.
Groll:"You got lucky, you filthy mud. You watch yourself or it won't happen next time."
He turned and walked the other way.

Sefon:"Next time? You sligs don't learn very fast, do you? I hope you don't mind repairing your rifle again, you'll need to do it if your're going to have another go at me."

T-nex · #**881** 05-24-2005, 03:31 AM

"Oh i see... We're there soon..." Kix said as she saw a sign reading: "Cafeteria this way"

-----
Anni shook her head, and whent back to pick up the scrabcakes. Then she left the place, and out to the stockyard.

"Hm..." she thought, "maybe I can still get out... No way i'm gonna stay here while the Cartel is here too."

She whent out to the stockyard. It was night as always. She moved her hand over the moon's face.

"I wonder how the craters got created..." she said.

She walked deeper into the stockyard, jumped over ledges and down again, untill she could hear screams and howls.

"AARGH! NOT ANOTHER ONE!" Anni heard someone yell.

She hurried up towards the noises, and saw a Paramite being chased by a Scrab. The slog stood up at the ledge and barfed amused.

"Somi? FREAK??" Anni said loudly.

"Argh! Anni! Help me!" Somi screamed, as Anni began to panic too.
-----

Kix and Rob had reached the cafeteria where Arnie was.

"Oh there they are!" Kix said, ans topped up, pointing at Arnie, "Now go talk to them, i'll go away and do some cleaning or soemthing."

She walked away, leaving Rob behind. She kept looking over her shoulder at the weird slig, untill she got out from the cafeteria.
----

Anni suddenly jumped down the ledge, picked up Somi, and threw her up the ledge. Then she ran around a bit, and jumped up herself.

"Phew, that was close." Anni said, "so what are you doing here?"

"Uh nothing, just playing around..." Somi howled.

Freak barfed again, and whent closer to Anni, and she started petting him.

"I'm gonna escape from here. Wanna come with me?" Anni asked.

"Really? I thought you liked it here..." Somi grinned.

"Yea, but it's so Odd-damn boring lately. And with that cartel-slig around there. It's no place for me anymore... I wanna get out and explore the world, then I'd come back and tell about my great experiences..." Anni said, with visions of great places she could see, and great adventures.

"But why come back? You'd only get put to boring work again..." Somi said.

"Hmm, you're saying something..." Anni muttered.

Splat · #**882** 05-24-2005, 10:47 AM

Stivik begins picking his way through the reckage of the massive grinder.

Stivik: "What the Hell happened here."

He switches on his box and speaks into it. "I just found the meat grinders. The thing looks like it's exploded recently! The whole place has been diced up. The access catwalk has been destroyed. Whoever did this..."

He trails off. He notices one of the gas pipes have been sliced. "One of the steam pipes has been smashed so the power from the main boiler is all just wasting away. This must have happened recently, damage like this should effect the elctrical systems of the whole factory. It's gonna get pretty cold soon. If Arnie lets this sort of thing happen it's easy to see how he could let the muds run riot. If this doesn't get sorted this could cost the Cartel millions. I wouldn't envy Arnie's successor."

He switches his box off and after a few seconds hesitation, runs towards the cafteria. After a few seconds he spots Nick and Math up ahead.

Stivk: "Hey, wait a sec."

As they turn around he recognises Nick. Whoa, if this guy's been sabotaging the grinders this could be better than i thought!

Havoc · #**883** 05-24-2005, 01:14 PM

Nick and Math look over their shoulders as they keep walking.

Nick: No time now Stavik, I have to talk to Arnie fast! The grinders broke.

Math: Exploded into a wreckage, I think is more of a term.

Nick whispering to Math: Would you shut up, this guy is a reporter, do you know what this guy could do to Arnie?

Math: Don't kid yourself, Nick. The reckage they explosion caused was hearable all over in Necrum. You realy think he doesn't know?

Nick grumbled and looked back at Stivik while still marching steadyly to the Cafeteria.

Nick: Don't ask, alright?

He stepped into the cafeteria and spotted Arnie and Otto in the corner.

Nick: Boss! *Walks up to the table* We got a little problem...

T-nex · #**884** 05-24-2005, 01:17 PM

OOC| Hmm... whatch out for the timeline... =-| Anyways... Both Rob and Nick are talking to Arnie... Si, dripik must remember to interact with both, or the story'll halt...

the brew master · #**885** 05-24-2005, 02:11 PM

OCC:Actully Geremy is in the cafateria now too so yea i can't do anything till he posts.

dripik · #**886** 05-25-2005, 09:05 AM

Arnie: "Hey, you lot. What is it then? Is something wrong? Otto, listen to Rob's and Geremy's problem, OK?"

Otto: "Right. So, what's going on?"

---------------------------------

*Rick runs along in a corridor, catching up with RG-49*

RG-49: "Mudokon organic, slave."

Rick: "I'm not a slave here, we all came here at will. Anyways, we need your mechanic skills."

RG-49: "Is there a malfunction in the factory?"

Rick: "Yes, it's the Registry."

RG-49: "Name your business at the Registry."

Rick: "It's not just me, #7 Slig is up there, too."

RG-49: "If the Security is included, then I am here to help. Let's go, organic."

T-nex · #**887** 05-25-2005, 09:18 AM

"Well, i have snapped some scrabcakes, so i don't starve..." anni said, and showed the scrabcakes.

"But what about water?" Somi asked.

"Oh yea... whoops, forgot that." Anni said worried.

"Ah nevermind, once you get out in the wild, there's plenty with water an food... If you know where to look. Or so the birds told me." Somi hissed.

"Uh, right.... Then lets go. The security aint that high here anyways. We can get out easily." Anni said, and chuckled.

They walked further into the Stockyard, avoiding vicious scrabs, and jumping up and down the ledges. Somi got them past the paramites, by talking to them, and explained how things were. Soon they had reached the outer stockyard.

-----

"Hmmm, i wonder where Anni is..." Kix said wondering.

She walked around the factory, looking for her.
She scratched her head, as she was nowhere to find. Then she spotted Stivik, Math and Nick.

"Hey guys, what's going on here? Have you seen Anni? Stivik, you were suposed to look after her, haven't you seen her anywhere?" She asked, not looking at Nick.

She still felt a bit of histility to Nick, and she grunted slightly.

Splat · #**888** 05-25-2005, 10:38 AM

Stivik looks angrilly after Nick and Math as they run off and then turns to Kix.

Stivik: "I'm not in charge of her till she tells Arnie it's ok, though I doubt that'll happen now." He's not too happy about loosing his trust with Anni, she could have been a valuable asset. "I saw her outside the security office 20 minutes ago. She said she was... looking for ratz. She's a wierd girl." He suddenly remembers the stuff he printed off about Anni but can't remember where he left it (ooc: neither can I so what can I say?) Rather than risk getting another copy, he calls to Kix again.

Stivik: "Hey, dyou know why she's so... unusual? Like the way she changed her mind over Nick so suddenly. And didn't she start painting flowers all over the walls?"

T-nex · #**889** 05-25-2005, 12:51 PM

OOC| If i remember right, Stivik didn't really put the printed stuff away, or if he did, it was in the RR....

"I don't know, she hasn't really spoken about her past... " Kix said, "But Dean and Javi probably knows. I'm not sure if they'd tell too much though.
Anyways, i've been looking after Anni all over the factory.... she must be here somewhere."

the brew master · #**890** 05-25-2005, 02:29 PM

Rob placed his rifle on the table and then pushed Geremy aside as he walked over to Otto."hey!"said Geremy as he picked himself up.

"I'm the commander of a Special Forces squad that was...'relocated' here and i need to know what my duties are here."said Rob.

"I just need a job..i'm just soo damn bored here"answered Geremy.

Havoc · #**891** 05-25-2005, 05:28 PM

Nick: Boss we had a little... accident... in the grinding area. One of the bolts broke and one of the blades kinda came loose.

Math: One of them? All three of them!

Nick glanced at Math and then looked back to Arnie without replying to the blue mud.

Nick: Sir the entire grinding area is... ehm... grinded? It's a complete mess, things are cut in half, the steam pipes are cut into bits, the entire factory is about to black out.

Math: Say what?

Nick: Nothing is getting any power, dipstick.

Math: Oh... right. Well, exept the grinding area.

Nick rolled his eye's and looked at Arnie.

Nick: Sir, we're in verry deep trouble.

the brew master · #**892** 05-25-2005, 11:23 PM

"Ohh ohh pick me! i can fix anything,i fixed everything back at the old scrab cake factory."yelled Geremy

"Then why exactly were you fired from there?"questiond Rob

"They told me i had done 'enough' for them and they no longer needed my 'services'...odd because later that day the factory collapsed,now there into the Meep herding buisness"

"Your telling me there trying to MAKE money with herding meep that are IMPOSSIBLE to catch which nobody wants or eats?"

"mmhmm"replied Geremy

Rob turns to Otto"I'd like to know what my duties are before i catch whatever he has"Said Rob looking back towards the dim witted Geremy.

Splat · #**893** 05-26-2005, 02:51 AM

Stivik. "I wouldn't mind knowing where she is myself. Where have you looked? And how long have you been looking?"

Stivik stealthily presses the play button on his box.

T-nex · #**894** 05-26-2005, 03:00 AM

"Uh, i don't know, i just looked the places where the could possibly be..." Kix said, scratching her head, "I have been loking all aorund, i went from the cafeteria, to the hallways, and in the few room that are being used here on Rupture farms... Hm... But she did say that she wanted to get to explore the worl... uuuh... wait.... Uhm, nothing i'd bette go check something out."

SHe suddenly got worried, as she thought back at when she was with Anni out at the stockyard... She looked at Stivik, doubtfully.

"When was the last time you saw her?" Kix asked.

Splat · #**895** 05-26-2005, 04:54 AM

Stivik: "About 20 minutes ago. Why? You think you know where she is? She wanted to explore what?"

T-nex · #**896** 05-26-2005, 07:27 AM

"Uh, explore the umm... world-map... yea. She likes geography... I need to find her. " she rushed in, as she began to wonder where Anni could be now.

-----

Anni was in the outer stockyard. There weren't any sligs or slogs to protect the area. Then something suddenly popped in her mind.

"Hey, i remember the Vykkers tell stories about this terrorist. He escaped from this place, when it was run by Mullock the glukkon." she said and looked at Somi.

"Uh, really? I only remember that factory as it was when Arnie was a boss... How long is it ago?" she responed.

"I don't know, but this place is quite nice, well besides the Bats." Anni said, and avoided a bat, that had just attacked her, then she said amuzed: "I wonder where we'll get to, before they realize that we're gone."

Freak then barked something.

"Oh, he misses Kix." Somi said indifferently.

dripik · #**897** 05-26-2005, 08:48 AM

Arnie: "Oddamnit! The grinders just expolded as they were? The machinery really needs repairing then. We need everybody who can help with this. First, um... I think it would be wise if we turned the power off in that sector, so the energy won't go into waste. Where's #7 Slig? He's never around when we need him. Anyways, go and do your best at the grinders."

Otto: "Back into action, right?"

Arnie: *sighs* "As always, Otto."

Otto: "Well, as for you two, Rob and Geremy... You better go and help too or something."

Gretin · #**898** 05-27-2005, 12:15 AM

Groll turned back towards Sefon and walked straight up to him.

Groll:"Next time, I don't care how long it takes, I'll get you when you're least expecting it somehow."

Sefon's thoughts:"Well, he's obviously too hostile to be of any use. Might as well get a little fun out of him."

Sefon:"Whatever..."

Groll turned away again and started walking, but Sefon stuck his foot in front of Groll's and tripped him up. Before Groll could get up, Sefon had left the scene.

Sefon arrives at the grinding area.

Sefon:"What on Odd's been happening in here?"

dripik · #**899** 05-30-2005, 06:52 AM

*Rick and RG-49 arrive to the upper levels*

Rick: "It's over there, RG."

RG-49: "Lead the way, organic."

*they go to #7 Slig*

Rick: "Hey, #7, wake up!"

#7 Slig: *yawns* "OK, I'm awake. Oh, here's that robotic fellow. Let's go to the console."

*they go to the consloe*

Splat · #**900** 05-30-2005, 10:44 AM

Kix rushed off before Stivik could react. After a few seconds thought, he decided to follow her. He wanted to know what Anni was doing.

ooc: Sorry I haven't replied in a while. Where're Groll and Sefon at the moment?
