IC: The Mafia Affair Options

[Kurb]

Alice looks around and decides to speak up.

"Well let's say we do this while everyone is sleeping, and we somehow manage to get our way past all the personnel, who know all the nurses and doctors that work there. Then we have to deal with the guards that are wide awake and know every nurse that has treated Gio since he's been there. Let's say we silence them and then we have to deal with Sophia, all the while the Star is on the way, then depending on the outcome with her, we toss Gio outta window to a car. They get him outta there while the rest of us backtrack the way we just came, fighting off any new opposition, and hopefully can narrowly escape before the Star arrives!?"

She drinks some beer, then continues.

"I dunno about the rest of you all, but I don't really like that idea to much. If we are going through the window, let's hit em while Sophia is asleep, cut the glass. I mean that doesn't much any noise, does it? Then open the window, which still shouldn't make any noise. Then we can figure out how to keep Sophia quiet, maybe toss her out the window as well. Then that would leave getting Gio out the window, the guards shouldn't even be disturbed. And everyone leaves in one piece, and have minimum opposition to face. We can have Lex record video feed from the room, and loop it right before we enter."

She finishes her beer. Then replies to her own comment with, "This is just my idea of how it can be down quickly and very quietly. We can fine tune this, or even do something else. Oh and I can use climbing gear. But there is no way in hell I'm going in there as a nurse. I'm sorry, but I think that would just lead to instant conflict. Not to mention I need to drive the SUV to get Gio out of there."

Alice gets up and goes and gets another beer, she then settles back down to finish hammering out the details.

[Grey]

"I think you missunderstood me. I wasn't talking about the people inside talking their way past the gaurds...

A silenced gel round to the head is a quick, quiet way to take them out and pull them into the room to hide them. Mojo, what kind of spells do you have? Any illusions to cover us what we do? Or maybe something to stun them? Also, I've got some high end comm gear. I could likely hack their radio signals and jam them."

He pauses for a moment, thinking...

"Lex... do you think you could fake a call to the Star that there is someone going crazy elsewhere in the hospitol and our guys could get pulled away for a moment?

Oh, and as far as the glasscutting idea goes, that was already my plan for getting in from outside," Akuma says as he reaches into his pack and pulls one out. From the looks of it, it is very well made.

((ooc: if you have the eye for such things, you can see the glasscutter is rating 6))

[phelious fogg]

"I can climb well enough if you need me outside, plus I can add heavy reinforcements if nessassary. I like the idea of pulling star off Gio's room. We might want to put a gas grenade into Gios room to knock Sophie out.

We might try pulling a alarm on Gio and saying he has to go to the OR now, and then just take him out that way, but that might not be very feasible.

My idea, probably the most notable, would be to go in as visitors to Gio, I know him and he would let me into his room without a problem."
She realizes she probably said too much, and bites her tongue before going on.

"I could always bring a 'bodygaurd' with me perhaps, then with two of you outside the window it shouldnt be hard from there. There are probably a dozen other options, but if Gio lets me into the room then it will probably be the safest thing, Sophie might be off her gaurd a bit then."

Rowan drops onto a faded bean bag against the wall in Lex's appartment listening to the wheezing sound it makes and it deflates.

[Elfie]

"Too many things can go wrong with you all posing as doctors and nurses. What if an emergency happens? What if some nurse decides to pull rank on you two 'nurses' and order you to go help with another patient? What if you, 'doctor', gets pulled into another room for a consult?"

Lex pops open another beer and continues, "It's a public hospital. I'm still a proponent of using visiting hours to our advantage. I'm not sure how well being a visitor to Gio would pan out, because it looks like the Star are watching him, so the desk might alert the guards that more 'mafia goons' are making their way up to Gio's room. There are other patients on that floor, I could have the three of you go in as visitors of whoever's in 507, 506, whatever. That way you get waved up to the floor. I'm on the cameras, so I can tell when there's no one there but the two guards. When the coast is clear, you pop the guards, and make your way into Gio's room. Akuma, you can still be on standby outside the window. I like your idea of going outside through the window. That makes for the easiest possible extraction. Question though, who's the driver? Alice, Rowan, and Mojo are in Gio's room. You are at the window, and I'm here on overwatch. Are the three of you (A R M) going to rappel out the window as well?"

[TinkerGnome]

Mojo speaks up. "I don't suppose the place is made out of that cruddy stuff that they recalled a few years back. The stuff you can just melt your way through, are they? Goin' through from an adjoining room would probably be remarkably easy."

[Kurb]

"Well I guess since I'm picking up the SUV tommorrow I can also be the driver, and in that case, I guess my ideas don't matter much." Alice finishes her beer and takes a deep breath and then yawns.

[TinkerGnome]

"Maybe several of us should go to pick up the SUV. It's a pretty good chioce for an ambush, if we're going to see one outside of the hospital."

[Kurb]

"I have no problem with a group of people going to pick up the SUV in the morning. Okay we at least got one thing settled then. So how do we plan on getting Gio. We really need to work this out. Everyone has a different idea of what they think will work. But various ideas, whether good or bad, still remain simply ideas. We need to hammer out the details, figure out what we are going to do, and then execute it. So what are we gonna do?"

[phelious fogg]

"I suppose one quick thing to do is to see if the two gaurds are Lone Star, they might just be Sophia's goons.. Can you look that up for us Lex?"

[Elfie]

"The only thing I'd be able to do is hope that there's a zoom on that camera in the hallway and hope I can find some Identifying marks on the guards."

[phelious fogg]

cant you log into star and ask thier computer if they have anything on Gio Bradly

[Elfie]

Lex's eyes light up, "Ooh, now that would be a fun hack. It's worth a shot. Is it really necessary though? Be they goons or Star, they're gonna get geeked if we have any trouble."

[phelious fogg]

"Yeah, but if they arent star, they might not get paged before we get up there." Rowan says. "Also we know they arent Carletto's goons or they we wouldnt be doing this run, which woudl leave Sophia's... And I think that would be a valuable peice of information."

[Grey]

"I wouldn't go as far as saying the gaurds will get geeks, especially if they are Star. A gel round works fine, but killing the Star is something that we should avoid at all costs.

What time are visiting hours and what time does the sun come down tomorrow?"

[Elfie]

"If I remember correctly, the hospital Icon said that visiting hours were between 10am and 5pm. Since it's January, I'm gonna think the sun'll set early...probably around 4ish?"

[TinkerGnome]

"Well, we need to decide on what kind ofprep we need. If we've got to grab a nurse or janitor, that adds a day to our timetable."

[Grey]

"I don't think we'll need to do that. Like they said, its a public hospitol, you could just be visiting. I'd still like for myself and one more to go in through the window. We don't too many people walking through the door.

So lets get this fleshed out. Lex, do you think you could fake a call to those Stars and get them out of the way?

Who is going through the window with me?

Lex, can you get an elevator to take me to the roof without the rest of the system noticing, or should we have Mojo levitate me up?

One more thing... what gear are we going to need for this?"

[Elfie]

"Getting you in an elevator won't be a problem....Assuming there IS an elevator that goes to the roof" Lex goes over to the blueprints lying on his coffee table and starts to go over them. "I don't know about faking that call. I have to make sure they're Star first, otherwise we'd have more trouble on our hands. Once I find out that they're Star, I'll see what I can do."

"We should try to bring as little as possible. This is supposed to be a quiet extraction. Hopefully our only problems will be Sophia and those two guards. Even better if we can get Sophia out of the way."

[Kurb]

Alice curls up on the floor in a corner, knowing now what her role is, she's nowhere near as interested in the plan.

[Grey]

Akuma goes over the blueprints of the building carefully for several minutes.

"It doesn't look like I can get to the stairs that head up without passing a nurses station. Mojo, you mentioned just levitating me up there. Is that something that you can handle without putting yourself out too much? And who wants to be on the roof with me? Lets figure out what each of our roles will be."

[phelious fogg]

"If you need someone who is a good climber that would probably be me," Rowan says, "I dont think Ill be as useful inside the building as I could be outside it anyways."

[Grey]

"Ok. So Rowan and I come in through the window. Lex will be on Matrix duty. Alice and Mojo, you guys ok going in through the hospitol?"

[TinkerGnome]

The ork looks at Akuma a bit oddly. "Maybe... me bein' a tusker an' all might make it difficult, at best."

[Kurb]

"Well I guess I could, but I thought we just agreed that we needed a driver, and I sorta figured that was my role."

[Grey]

"Hmmm... How good are you at climbing Mojo?"
