RP Mission Three: Clues to a Better Tomorrow:

[Soban]

"I do." Sacre said, taking the clothes and her forked tounge ficking out and digging into the clothes to pick up on the scents in turn. "My species has an extraordinary sense of smell. To the point where it can be mire important than vision to us. I typically haven’t found much use for it. Mostly recreational hunting. However, I think here it might give us a distinct advantage." Sacre said, having pinpointed the unique scents of their three targets.

"I love you," Aliset mouthed to Sacre as she took a deep breath, the wave of calming pheromones already easing her instincts as her logical mind caught the change and she perked up, pretending not to be looking for the other Senti in the room. She idly checked her makeup before introducing herself. "My name is Khetu. Sorry for my accent. With Sanssinia's tracking abilities, she can find our man as long as he wasn't put into an air car. Separa are some of the best trackers one can employ. Especialy Pythus. Labial heat pits and their tongue. Little odd, but a Separa tongue can maintain their sense of smell in almost any fluid environment and are orders of magnitude better than bloodhounds, especially with their intelligence. Being sapient, they can make judgement calls andidentify people no matter how they disguise themselves or are disguised. Often by smell alone."

She looked around the group. "That said. My name, for all intents and purposes, is Khetu Katamura. I don't look Senti, but Goon fucked around and found out on that one. I'm your long range supporting shooter."

Corsica Planet City - Landing Pad

The landing pad was more or less in the middle of the city. This was by far the largest gathering of people and goods on the planet. The colony's high above in orbit did its part to feed goods from all around the universe to support the population below. While each depended on one another, the city had its own full government. Which from reports the crew had access too, did not really draw anything to attention. On paper the leader was listed as a mayor, though depending on who you ask, would be closer to that of a warlord. Either way if one did not cause any trouble they would be left along.

Akino reached up and rubbed her hand across her month, smiling behind it. Did she just do a move that is normally done by Alastair?! "I see that we have more friends to tag along. Please, more hands the better I always say." Akino took a moment to take in the sight of Birdie. She seemed like someone who could take care of themselves. Was easy on the eyes as well so would find no complaints from the XO on them joining the team. She reached over and pointed towards the map to the area outside the city. "Let us start here. Least here if things get a little wild, it would not draw the entire city guard down on our asses." She said aloud to the team.

After letting the group have a moment to chat Akino looked to Riplinn. "Do you have a ride we can use to get out of town? Prefer something less beat up as the shuttle though I feel I am asking a lot." She said with a grin.

Mean while, back on the Koun

"Come on Alastair, else we are going to be late to the meeting with the CEO. Lets move it, your messages can wait till we get back. The crew is just fine." The neko called out as she waited for Alastair to join her. As he left, the call in button blinked, left unanswered.

"They're not getting paid? Guess that's good news." Birdie nodded along as Riplinn explained. "If they want something more important than cash, that's pretty good motivation." She looked between the others as they introduce themselves, or were introduced. "An angel, a snake, a toaster, the toaster's toaster, and..." She sniffed at the air for a moment. "...a cat." She raised an eyebrow at the look Akino was giving her.

"This help is gonna draw a lot of extra attention. I'm pretty sure I've seen one of 'em somewhere before, too." The mercenary gave Akino another glance, before her gaze focused on the Separa. "...but if you can narrow things down, maybe it'll be worth the hassle." She nodded in agreement with another suggestion. "Something inconspicuous would be nice."

For now, the Nepleslian leaned against a wall to wait for decisions to be made and orders to given.

 

[Sosina]

Riplinn nodded to the Serpentine woman as their Senti ally explained deeper on their sense of smell "I see... Very handy... However I think you may have issues doing so with people of my race, from what I have gathered we come up as vegetation on your scanners, to the point we are not even classified as people in all technicality in places like say.. the Empire, in fact I believe the official word in the empire about this planet is that is has no native population despite my people originating here.. if you can pick out the difference in scent between a flower blooming on a normal plant and the same kind of flower blooming on one of my kind then your sense of smell is truly remarkable."

With that turned to look back to Akino, "Ah so glad you decided to hit there first, I have some assets that I can bring in if we take that out... especially since it has some of their no doubt smuggled in Anti-air capability, popping a hole in that would do wonders for some equipment I can bring in" he smiled as he then turned to look to Birdie.

"yes we may have to be a bit quite when dealing with this first target, again they will have quite a few people there, but the good news is they think they are hidden, so while the amount will be high their level of security may be lacking... personally I would love to take over the place or failing that raze it to the ground, but that can wait, we need to hit it and see if they are there, if not we move on.. if they get word out that they are being attacked they may move the hostages"

"as for conveyance we have something that can take us out there, and quietly, but I hope you understand if I have Goon Drive" he gestured for everyone to follow him and he lead the group down a long hallway, the third direction that Birdie had indicated earlier when she was mentioning the patrol. it was, like the rest of the place, well taken care of and opened up into a hidden garage.

Goon seemed to already know what Vehicle Riplinn was talking about and she rushed over to it and started to get it ready while Riplinn spoke up "This little beauty is something of a custom job That Goon put together, Optical Camo.. Sound Dampening, holographic projectors, heat waste shunt so it's invisible to heat sensors, and designed to travel the surface even with the heavy vegetation.. Honestly I had no Idea she was making it till a few months after I mentioned wishing to have a more covert and safe means to travel the surface... next thing I know she shows me this... I think she spoils me.." he smiled over at Goon who was wiping a spot on the hood of the vehicle with a rag to make sure it was presentable

Tucking the rag away Goon gave the group a thumbs up, the design of the vehicle was low to the ground, with variable suspension and looked more like a Limo mixed with a heavily armored APC then a normal ground vehicle, and just by looking at the rounded hull it was also obvious that it was capable of submersible travel meaning the vehicle could in fact go anywhere on the surface.

"You will also find a rather well stocked armory inside as well, nothing to flashy, mostly small arms, but it does also have a nice little instillation I like to call the Hive, if you need anything while we are out, we can have it made for the most part" it sounded more like Riplinn was singing the praises of the creation of Goons imagination rather then simply tell them of the features, and as he walked over he nodded to the group "Easily enough room for everyone.. I'll ride up front with Goon the rest of you can plan out in the back.." Goon saluted to Riplinn as she got the door for him and then she scooted around the side and opened the door for everyone else.

Once everyone was inside and ready to go Goon scooted to the main drivers seat and turned the vehicle on, it let out a low rumble but then the sound seemed to dampen itself as she engaged what stealth functions it had and they were off up a hidden ramp and out of the garage and into the city, quickly leaving to head into the wilds towards their target.
