IC: TANGO DOWN!, In the pipe, 5 by 5 Options

"It's kind of refreshing," the ork says in between bites. "There's something to be said for not relying on technology to do all your work for you. Of all people, I figured you'd appreciate it the most."

[Shadow]

"Yeah, okay I see that aspect, but this whole country reeks of death and decay. A little more to let us get where were going on time wouldn't hurt. But yeah, I hear you."

Danny looks listlessly out the window, occasionally checking the mirrors to make sure they are not being followed.

"I don't think they have a grid-guide in these parts." Yoko remarks off-handedly while listening to the two in the SUV through the communications gear set up in the tent. Her focus seems divided between the her disassembled weapons near the foot of her bed and her deck.

She smiled as she got started reassembling her pistol before inputing her next command on the Matrix chess game. "Hmmm...Queen to rook seven. Hah. Checkmate again. Take that, Wintermute."

[Panzergeist]

Kenjiro is dissapointed to be using such an unsubtle method, but it seems it can't be helped this time. Double-checking his sustaining foci and adjusting the holster of his Ares Predator, Kenjiro hefts his Ares Alpha assault rifle and signals his readines.

[Shadow]

"Thanks Yoko, that was pretty much my guess from the pile-up we just passed." Danny nods to his comm. He looks over at Nikolai, "ETA?"

[A Rodent of Unus...]

"Less than half an hour, man. Patience. It's a virtue. Look it up."

Noon Local (0800 Zulu)

The Hosptial is a blocky 15 story affair, with three separate sections. The center section is the tallest, and rises probably 5 stories above the east and west wings.

The east wing roof is home to a VTOL landing pad, and what looks like several lamp poles. The base of the east wing houses the Emergency entrance to the hospital, as evidenced by the 3 emergency vehicles parked in front.

The west wing is pretty non-descript. Nothing makes it stand out or catches your eye.

The center section is home to the main hospital entrance. The entire building looks to be built of weathered stone, and is probably at least 40-50 years old.

You turn into the parkinglot, which has maybe 2 dozen vehicles in it, and drive the 100 meters to the hosptial itself. Behind the hospital and on it's west side are rows of low slung office buildings and accompanying parking slots.

To the west of the hospital partking lot is a small, 2-lane road that travels into a crowded industrial park which sits well behind and a bit to the east of the hospital itself. Directly across the 2-lane road from the emergency room is a 20-story office building, with almost as much parking as the hospital.

During your drive around the hospital, you noticed no cameras or overt security. The office building to the east, however, looks to have plenty.

The hospital parking lot also looks like it will be well-lit in the evening.

[Shadow]

“Damn,” Danny mutters to himself.

“All the building are much lower than the hospital itself. We either going to have to go through the basement, or use a helicopter,” he turns to Nik and gives him a wink and a thumbs up, “and repel onto the roof.”

"Or, we could repel onto the office building."

"What is that building to the east? Lets see if we can find out more about it. If they have cameras all over the place I want to make sure we don't show up on them, and if we do, I want to know who owns them.

Yoko, why don't you see what dirt you can dig up on that building."

[Misfit Toy]

Just before arriving at the hospital, Nikolai pulls over and releases the mini-blimp in full stealth mode. As it rises into position, he begins performing the standard aerial reconnaisance techniques he usually uses in these situations while he continues to drive around casually.

When Mike asks for more details on the east building, the blimp zooms in for a closer look...

[Panzergeist]

"You know," Kenjiro quips, "there is something to be said for the classic ski mask disguise."

[Ecclesiastes]

Michael chuckles, "You got a point Kenjiro. But I'd rather they not know anyone is there at all, yanno?"

[CardboardArmor]

"Eastern building? Sure thing, boss man. Hope they don't have someone watching their system. Or..." She shudders momentarily, "Their system doesn't suck as much as the hospital's."

Jacking into the 'trix, she sets off on her task.

[Panzergeist]

"There is also something to be said for the human eye," Kenjiro says. "Even if we hack the security system, there will still be people to see us, and they may have their own recording devices. A pocket secretary or cybereye camera isn't something a decker can just turn off." So saying, he puts on a ski mask, slipping his helmet on over it.

[Ecclesiastes]

"Thats why we go in at night with night camo gear and hopefully some Thermal Dampers. Come on Kenjiro, you know there is always a way to get someplace without being seen."
