If it is, he gestures to it and plans to get inside!

One more staircase winds down beside them towards the main floor. Silas sees that it'd be a tiiiiiiight fit to get in the ventilation system himself.

Well, Josh can't sneak past shit, and there's no way he'd be able to fit into the vents with the others. He points to Aaron to get his attention, holds up the palm of his hand and pantomimes hitting it a couple times (with no actual contact, as to not make noise). Then he raises an eyebrow questioningly. Back to Top   Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...

There's an army sitting on this place, any alarm going up before the time is right and this whole thing could be blown. He jerks his thumb towards the stairs and then mimes his fingers walking on tip toes, to signal "move down the stairs as quietly as you can". Then he taps Silas and Eliott on their shoulders to get their attention, indicates Leif and Eliott and nods to the vent, before sweeping his arm a little to indicate the rest of the group and pointing to the stairs, giving a questioning eyebrow raise just like Josh did to make it clear the splitup is just a suggestion. He keeps glancing at the guards, as well, to make sure their attention is still diverted. Anyone going in the vents at all seems like a horrible idea to him, with the racket it might make, but there's no time for an argument.

Nothing ventured, nothing gained, but Josh was going to be waiting to bring up the rear just in case things soured. Back to Top   El Sensei Sensei El Jefe I control the universe!

"Leif, Elliot, scouting." He points to the vents and hisses. "If you two are positive you can take the guards out silently, do it. Otherwise stay put with fatso here." He tells Mike and Aaron, gesturing to Josh. He looks for sunshine girl. Back to Top   Eliott Knight Mentor Intelligence Go away.

She stayed quiet this whole time because she didn't want to crawl in stuffy old vents. God damn it. But she goes ahead and crawls into the vent, shuffling through it as quietly as possible so she can scout as indicated.

It seems to lead forwards, which has a drop off to the first floor, or to the left, which leads to another room. Back to Top   Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...

This was war. She spreads her legs and hands, moving with as much practiced grace as she can. She taps Eliott and motions for her to go into the room. Leif will take the first floor drop off, if she agrees. « Last Edit: Mar 9, 2016 20:46:03 GMT -6 by Leif Adamson » Back to Top   Biography ;; Gasoline Eliott Knight Mentor Intelligence Go away.

She can see through the grates that there's a massive..... MASSIVE circular platform in the middle of a huge room. Technicians move about constantly, checking different readings, while there's the clear sound of it powering up again. Eliott sees through her own grate that there's a room with two technicians inside, as well as a large computer terminal. Mike creeps closer....and closer.... the guards look around, as any amount of darkness that can impede vision is larger than Mike just moving on his own. "Hey, is someone messing with the power, or-" They spot Mike and raise their rifles as he approaches! Back to Top   Aaron Silverman Legend Defense ...
