The Underground (Sewer Open Rp)

The rat ran along the walkway along the sewer tunnel. It was following the mechanical sounds coming from farther down the way. This behavior is counter to the rodents instincts, but it's mind was being controlled by Scavenger the mutant telepath.

Reaching the turn in the tunnel the rat stopped and looked around the corner. There was light coming from high power lights. It could see guards standing watch as other people were carrying crates into a secret base entrance. The guards had on the armor and uniform of the Vril.

He went slowly trying to get closer to the construction sight. The Vril seem to ignore the rat as the stood guard. Vril clone troopers weren't too bright it seems. Soon the rat got close enough to hear talk. "We need to get those research papers. This means breaking into the City's records. There are two choices, one a sneak expert going in, or a massive assault." "We try the sneak, send out a job offer to anyone willing to take the job. We can stage an assault elsewhere in order to provide a distraction."

There was something about the voice of the second person that scared Scavenger. He had to see the man in order to confirm it. The rat continued to sneak closer spotting the two people and as the second man turned the shock hit scavenger. It was Fred Gardner the scientist that made the mutagenic compound that changed Scavenger into the Human Rat psychic hybrid. Fred Gardner who he had killed.

A blaster fired and the rat screamed then died. Now as a smoking corps the man that fired the blaster walked over and nudged it with his boot. The Vril and even the two officials in the base looked over. "There was something odd about this rat." Came the cybernetic voice of Cybershot the Mercenary. "Sick or a stray pet" Said Fred Gardner. "We need to focus on the problem. I need my original self research papers." He turned and headed into the base on the back of his neck was a bar code tattoo with the words Clone 23-4 Gardner.

Scavenger came out of his trance eyes wide with fear. It didn't help Rosie rat like face was inches away from his. *Bad Peoples?* "Yes Rosie very bad peoples are in the sewers. They be hunting for us." He stood up and headed for the hidden hideout exit. "No more leaving the hideout till I know it's safe. So no following me Rosie." *Where you going?*

"We going to need help. Might be time to call in some friends. The Vril are a major group of bad peoples, we going to need help." Then he headed out of the hideout and to the alleyway across the street from a Phoenix Burger. He pulled a cloth over his rat like face and moved his tail around his body to mimic a belt. He looked down to make himself look like a hunched over human rather than a Ratman. He hurried across the street to the store and knocked on the back door.

Soon it opened and the manager looked at him with her sad eyes. "Eric what you doing out here at this time someone will see you." "Sorry sis but this is important, I need that phone I asked you to get me now. There is trouble and I need to call on those Heroes I talked to before." "What kind of trouble, do I need to do something." "It's the Vril and I swear Fred with them." "Fred? You said... the news." "I know! Sorry I can't explain it but it was Fred he's alive and looking for the research. This is bad, very bad."

She went back inside and soon grabbed the cheep phone and came back out. "It's a Prepaid phone T-Mobile the hours can transfer to the next month if you don't use them. I also got about 60 dollars worth of extra time cards so you can use them to pay for more phone time." "Thanks sis... be careful I stay away for some time. Fred be sending someone to watch you and the family. I even mention it to the capes maybe they can keep an eye out. The Vril could try to get to you all to get me out of hiding." "Maybe we should leave then. Take a family vacation." "With the reach the Vril have, I'm not sure if they couldn't get you on the Moon. Just be careful and call the cops if you suspect anything." "Love you Eric be careful." "Thanks Mary, tell mom and dad I love them too." He then turned and headed back to the alleyway.

There he made the phone call to Gunni "This is the information dealer you met a week ago. There is major trouble I need help."

"Carmen, answer phone."

"Carmen, answer phone." Gunni looked at the boxes in the trailer behind her bike in the rear view mirror as Scavenger spoke. "I'm about to make a delivery, but I'm sure the client will understand why I can't do the installation right away. I can be at the large drain pipe you told me about inside of five minutes."

"Okay that's better if you

"Okay that's better if you are that close. Be careful.. it's the Vril they reactivated one of the underground bases in this neighborhood. I fill you in more there." He hung up the phone and slipped back into the drain system. It was a more roundabout way then he normally took, but he didn't want to lead any trail back to the hideout. It took him longer then five minutes because he was being so careful and checking each corner before scurrying out and head to the next.

So when he did get there he moved to the opening of the drain slowly his whiskers wiggling as he sniffed the air for any trace of anyone but Gunni.

Gunni was already there, and

Gunni was already there, and had just finished putting the grating back in place after moving her bike and the trailer (still loaded with boxes) inside. She walked the bike, with the trailer attached, down the ramp, into the darkness. Softly she said, "Carmen, IR on." The helmet camera turned on in infrared mode, displaying the image on the inside of her faceplate. If there were Vril around, she wanted to spot them before they spotted her....

He approached her "We need to

He approached her "We need to talk. The Vril are hunting me and my friends. First do you know why more villains and organizations don't use mutagenic compounds? The answer is they are too unstable, unpredictable. The same goo could make someone get superpowers and look fine, next person contact the same stuff could wake up with tentacles for arms. Even the mad scientist tend to avoid the stuff."

"Well most of the sanist mad scientist that is. I worked for a GMO lab called Victoria's Food Products. I wasn't anything more than a lab aid, I tended the lab animals. Well I got suspicious something was up, but had no proof. So knowing there was some flaws in the security system I snuck in and discovered they were doing more than just making sure GMO foods are safe. They were testing a new mutagenic compounds one that produces the same abilities nearly each time, just with a nasty gen swapping side effect. Take a guess what the test animals were."

"I was caught in the lab and shot. Before I blacked out I fell into some equipment and caused a fire. Burnt the place pretty bad the cops now are looking for me for being an Eco terrorist, yeah right. So I got blamed for the fire and destruction of the lab, at the same time I was exposed to the mutagenics. The Test subjects escaped their cells and saved me and so now you know why we live in the sewers."

"What the Vril are after are the remains of the research papers. And if possible one of us. If the Vril get a chance to reproduce that mutagen and keep it from turning their clone troopers into hybrids. Then they will have a reliable means of making an army of Psychic powered troopers."

Down the sewer tunnel a figure came into sight followed by four Vril troops. It was Cybershot and he was already lifting his custom assault blaster. "The Rat keep alive, the other one terminate." He fires at Gunni.

Gunni lifted up her bike by

Gunni lifted up her bike by the handlebars and swung it almost effortlessly toward the five attackers as she said, "Carmen, Panzer mode." The trailer popped off of the hitch, and the first blaster bolt struck a portion of the cowling as the motorcycle unfolded and refolded around Gunni, forming an armored suit; the wheels at her back, the stars of the Southern Cross on her left breast, and a discolored patch on the right side of her waist. Two portions of the frame were at her hips, the impression of a samurai's dai-sho being reinforced by the manner in which she drew two swords from them. The swords were not in the Japanese style, though; one looked like a Roman gladius and the other looked like it might have come out of The Lord of the Rings. Or maybe The Mighty Thor...

As she stepped in front of Scavenger, she assessed the damage the blaster had done. She didn't think her suit could take too many hits like that in the same location. "Run!" She was looking right at Cybershot when she said it, and she charged him much faster than a normal human could have, even without wearing a motorcycle...

The advanced cybernetics of

The advanced cybernetics of his systems was all that gave him the chance to get out of the direct attack from Gunni. As he leaped to the side he released a flash bang grenade at the spot he was standing. "Swords, Melee combat weapon. I assume you believe it's a tool for a more civilized age. Me I don't a quick blast and a target gone, no fear in the last moments. Just a heartbeat between life and death." He readjusted his balance and with a slight shifting of his finger the blaster went from long range shot to a short range shotgun like cone blast.

Two of the clones ran at Scavenger, the other two stopped and assessed that Gunni was a greater threat to the operation. They added their own assault rifle fire at her.

Scavenger was about to run when he saw the flash of the grenade. He turned back and saw the two clones running after him then he got angry. He only used his psychic power to attack once before, but does killing a clone count? He focused on the one closest to him and it stopped running looking dazed then refocused on the target. The mind controlled clone opened fire on it's brother. The only reason the other clone didn't die out right was the body armor.

Between the dark visor, the

Between the dark visor, the filtering earplugs, and a limit on how bright the HUD would go, the flashbang was only a momentary inconvenience. Gunni stopped and whirled just beyond the gunman. "No, just the best tool for an up close, in your face, fighting style." She launched a series of attacks, using her full striking power (with the suit, it was comparable to that of a full-blooded Æsir or Vanir), aimed at cutting up his weapons. It ended with what had been one of the two headlights of the motorcycle, reconfigured as a weapons grade laser, popping up in a mount on her left arm, aimed at his face, and fired... "I can do ranged weapons, too."

With a spine-rattling roar, a

With a spine-rattling roar, a massive creature dropped out of a vertical passage just after the Vrill crossed underneath it. With another bellow, it swung a powerful arm into three of the clone troopers, catching them up and sending them flying into a side passage wherein it quickly joined them. The battle was mostly unseen, but it could be heard in the form of multiple blaster shots, human howls of pain, and bone-crunching thuds.

Cybershot backed up using his blaster as a block of the weapon the sword indeed caused damage. Then there was the yells and screams as the Vril troops were taken out by something else. Not to mention the one that been mind controlled now grabbing it's head as Scavenger went from control to attack. "Threat assessment appears to have been to low. You win this round." Cybershot let go of the now damaged gun and hit a personal transporter device on his belt then vanished.

Scavenger dropped to all fours and let's his eyes shift from the more human view to the view that of a Rat. Now seeing more in Ultraviolet and seeing in the dark he tried to look at the creature that gave the drop on the Vril. "Who are you? Friend or Foe?"

The creature emerged from the

The creature emerged from the tunnel, moving on all four limbs as it timidly approached the heroes. As it moved into the light, it was revealed to be a shaggy ape-like creature that would have been over seven feet tall if it stood on its legs. It's fur was dirty and matted, but it was obvious that it was a strange shade of purplish-blue.

Around the creatures neck was a chain that appeared to have been made to be tighter at one time. But now it was loose and had thick leather straps attached to it that traveled down the creature's chest, becoming a leather belt that held up filthy pants that looked like they'd been made from potato sacks. The creatures hands and feet were wrapped in strips of thick cloth.

Once fully revealed, the creature sat back on its haunches. When it did, a a heavy steel nameplate attached to the chest straps came into view. On the plate had been engraved the word THROBAK.

The creature hesitated, screwing its face up quizzically before rumbling, "Friend? Friend of Rat-man?"

Standing up he sniffed the air "Well given you aren't smashing me I would say sure, friends. Throbak is that your name?" His whiskers twitch as he glances around "Gunni I think we should move location just in case that guy that got away went to get reinforcements."

"That, or quick repairs and an upgrade. Nice to meet you, Throbak." Gunni picked up the hitch of the trailer, swung it around and pushed it in front of her like a wheel barrow. "Scav, I'm sorry I didn't get this stuff to you sooner, and also that I won't be able to set it up for you right away. It seems there are some bad guys giving a friend of mine trouble..."

"I don't know what to do

"I don't know what to do Throbak. There bad people in the underground that want's to hurt me and my family." He led the two along the tunnels till he came to what looked like a bad patch job in the concret. The color was off and there was cracks forming. "My family...hmm guess they really are. Anyway try not to scare them, you might Throbak, pinky more like you then the others"

He gave the patch job a good push and it moved swinging open on a hinge. Inside looked like a cave at first then leads to what was once a subway terminal. Along the walls grew some phosphorescent mushrooms giving the area a soft blue light. Then a hissing sound came from a far corner six pairs of rat eyes were locked onto Throbak and Gunni. The closes one charged it was Pinky the black rat and it was moving more like a chimp then a human. At the same time the two would feel a pressure on their minds causing them both to get dizzy.

"STOP! KIT Drop the mental attack! Pinky Down! These are friends!" Pinky stopped so fast he rolled and then blinked confused as to why Scavenger would tell him to stop. two brown rats move forward moving in nearly synchronized steps. The dizzy effect faded as the two mentally eased up on the attack. Thought it seemed they were ready to retaliate if need be. "That means you too Kat. The rest of you come out as well, this is Gunni she's going to help make the T.V. work. And this is Throbak, he's... well he's a friend."

All six rats were the size of 10 or 12 year old children even Pinky who had the physical bulk. He looked at Gunni and Throbak "Sorry you are the first two who they seen besides me that haven't been hurting them, experimenting on them, and well there were eight test subjects. Someone wanted to see what their insides were like." *Not bad peoples? I KNOW YOU!* Rosie then came forward and sniffed at Gunni *You were at place papa gets food from.*

"This is Rosie, you met Kit and Kat the twins. I call them twins but they aren't. There minds are so linked together I'm not sure they know how to tell themselves apart. Pinky the large one he's, well his mental powers aren't as pronounced when he attacks, there is psychic energy with the physical blows. Think Vulcan form of mental powers requiring physical touch. He also was exposed to a chimp when the tested him instead of human contact. So he's a Rat Ape instead of a Ratman. Then there the two still hiding, the two gray rats looked at eachother then scurried behind Pinky. Those two are Walter and Gromit." "Hope you don't mind telepathy, they don't speak not even the three smallest ones they are the more normal human hybrid of the pack. All but Pinky can speak mind to mind. Pinky uses sign language, or at least I been trying to teach him."

He closes the doorway and uses a bar to lock it in place. The station had camping gear set up and a shack at the far end with a cot. The rat pack seemed to have turned a bunch of sleeping bags and other items into a large nest at the corner where they were when the tree entered. There was a fold up camping table with a lantern on it. Scavenger went over and turned it on. By the shack was a banged up gas powered generator, in bad condition given it now sports ape like fist marks where pinky banged it. On the table were drawings on random paper scraps and a box of crayons. There were other camping devises like a kitchen set up with a propane grill. Thought it was clearly all put together from scraps and scavenged items the place had a home feel to it. "Be ever so humble there no place like home."

A tall, but lanky dark

A tall, but lanky dark skinned man, was walking through the sewers, his hands in his pockets as he numbed to himself." Cool daddy-O, this seems to be the happening spot, I'm a fool for showing up late, though, feelin lost."

He was dressed in a rust colored zoom suit, with an opened shirt and jacket, exposing his chest. Trying his best to avoid getting the sewers mess all over his white gators. He raised his head when the sounds of something big was in the the sewers, waiting a while to wait before continuing, creeping up and spotting a pile of presumably dead Virl.

"Ohh, that's some funky business there, these turlies ain't stand a chance." He brought up some bravery and yelled as loud as he could. "HEY! I DON'T KNOW WHO OR WHAT DID THIS, BUT YOU ARE SCREWING WITH MY BIDNESS ASSOCIATES!"

After recovering from the

After recovering from the psychic assault, Gunni spoke softly, "Carmen Bike mode." The armor peeled off of her and re-folded itself into the motorcycle, which she parked in an open space. The stylized constellation that had been on the armor was once again concealed within the structure of the bike, and the one formed of retro-reflective glass beads forged from a used beer bottle was once again visible on the left breast of her riding jacket. "Yes, I saw you there! It's nice to meet you, Rosie. And you too, Kit and Kat and Pinky and Walter and Gromit." There was a bit of amusement in her smile.

She looked around. "This has potential. But do you want to get started on your new power supply first, or... discourage bad people from snooping around your neighborhood?"

When the psychic attack hit,

When the psychic attack hit, Throbak grabbed his head and howled in pain. He fell to his knees and then curled up into an enormous furry ball. When it ceased, he stayed that way, sobbing like a child.

"Wh... hyyy you hurt head? Throbak just wanted friends... not more mean people." he whimpered once the sobs had subsided.

The twins looked at eachother

The twins looked at eachother then at Gunni and Throbak. This time the mental touch was gentle. *We are sorry, you were strangers. We didn't know you are friends.* The twin voices were even in mind speak nearly synchronized more like one was an echo of the other. A sensation of regret seemed to ripple from them as well before the mental touch withdrew.

Pinky was the one that came up to Throbak and patted his arm. Then pinky acted like a chimp and slapped the ground then signed 'play'. "if you play no roughhousing. Don't want to cause to much noise. And sorry Throbak they were just being overly defensive, with the bad people out there they been afraid." *I not afraid!* came the mind voice of Rosie. *were too!* came the voice of Walter. "Don't start kids. We got guess."

"Well Gunni I really don't know. Those guys will be out hunting for me and the rat pack here. Then again I might have some skill now with my psionic powers, and the others do as well. That's a far cry from being able to fight. It's an entire base. Here I show you I been mapping the area." He heads to the shack and to a card table where he had a city map of the sewer and drainage system. On it he been marking extra lines some marked dead end, crime tunnels, hidden lair, old subway, and deep caverns. Those were also color coded some green, others yellow, and a few red (some with skull and crossbones). He motioned to a section he just marked with red "That's the entrance to the lair they taken over. Was already there, but now they are repairing and upgrading."

Throbak sat up slowly onto his butt, his barrel-like legs extended out in front of him. He wiped at his eyes and reached up to pat Gunni on the back. "Tank you, friend Gunni."

He stood up, watching as Pinky slapped the ground and signed. Throbak looked over at Scavenger when he spoke. "Play? What play?"

In the tunnels Cybershot came charging to the entrance with fresh Vril heavy armor troops. Only to slow down and look around. "Seems the target has taken off." He then looks at the man "you match the description of the fellow I was sent to escort. As you can see we ran into a little trouble."

Hideout.

Pinky got up and went to a chest taking out a red ball then rolled it over to Throbak.

"Marcus Cain, is my government, or you can just call me Eymber, and yeah ain't no jive in that brother."

Marcus looked around, his hand finding his slightly braided beard. "So, where we headed, time is money, and fate dont own a watch." He stuffed his hands into his pockets, his ember irises faintly glowing as his mouth stretched into a grin.

Throbak reached out and picked up the ball, opening his palm to look at it. "This play?" he asked.

He sniffed at it, then poked it with his finger, watching as it rolled around on his enormous palm. He dropped it, watched it bounce, then poked it hard enough that it rolled back to Pinky.

Putting yourself in another persons shoes emotionally is something that everyone has to experience eventually. It's part of learning to be a human being. Roleplayers do it for fun.

Tunnels

Tunnels

Cybershots faceless mask looked at Marcus "I go by Cybershot, any other information about me is not important."

"Our mutual employer is actively seeking some lost research. There are two options for that. One track down the mutants test subjects somewhere in these tunnels, or to stage a break in at the City Hall Records and retrieve the evidence and files they have there. Personally I believe both options are waste of time, but I'm not against being paid for wasted effort."

"Given I have now new information that the Test subject have support from one operating Hero and one Unknown tracking them down will be both easier, capturing them alive will be harder. Death of the test subjects is discouraged, but is an option. The break in will trigger the normal response of Police and Hero activity. Depends on the skill of the ones doing the break in. A stage attack at another location to cause a distraction is also an option."

Soon they came to the entrance to the base and the first room was a storage area. Here the Vril escort went to other assignments as Cybershot headed into the next chamber the Labs. "

"Fred Gardner the fourth. The lead researcher and operations manager on this task. Dr. Gardner this is Marcus Cain, prefers Eymber." Fred Gardner was an average looking fellow brown short hair, brown eyes. Rounded face and a smile that didn't quite hit the eyes. He looked up from the chemical analyzer "Ah the fellow I was told about. Please don't let Cybershot cold nature give you the wrong idea. Care for a drink? Refreshments? Really anything you like just ask. I'm sure Cybershot has filled you in on some basics. And don't let that Fourth business confused you. Truth is I'm a clone Number 4 of the 23rd line well at least that's what I'm told. Seems the first Fred Gardner done some things to impress the Vril higher ups. My clone mate the third was nearly as impressive, till a lab tech got noise and things got out of control. I'm here to clean up the mess, recover the last research, and deal with our little rat problem."

"Now Tell me Eymber what is it you need and how do you suggest we proceed."
------------------------------------
Rat Den

"I'm not sure how many there are, I was able to see the first room with a scouting rat. It was a storage room and I counted about 20 Vril troops various armor. There was also doors to other areas. Those Vril were moving things in I'm sure there are more. It looked like lab equipment so there be scientist as well."

Pinky bounced a little glad the new friend was playing. Didn't really grasp that Throbak didn't quite grasp the idea of play. Rosie did however and spoke to Throbak *how come you know what friend is and not play? Play is what you do for fun, something you enjoy. Pinky likes playing with the ball, me I have a Mickey Mouse dollie.* Sage all knowing nod only a ten year old can do.

Pinky bounced the ball then rolled it back to Throbak. The ball itself was about 6 inch diameter ball with a smooth surface.

"Oh, please this dude, cold

"Oh, please this dude, cold natured? He's gotta be the 5th most lovable brother I ever had the pleasure of meeting inside a sewer." He looked over toward Cybershot a wide toothed grin on his face before turning his attention back to Dr. Gardner. "

Well, let me rap to you for a moment doc, I say we pull the heroes out of the woodwork like my main man C.S was saying on the way here." He had crossed his arms, and looked up, his tongue rubbing over his gums and teeth. " What I'm saying is this Daddy-O, you allow me to dig on the distraction, and you all, can get what needs to be got."

He was opening and closing his hand, every contraction of his fingers incased his hand in stone like hot embers, hotter then hellfire and harder then Brimstone, humming the tune of the temptations "My Girl."

Gunni nodded, then pointed to

Gunni nodded, then pointed to three locations. "Call these Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie. If they come here, they either pass through one of those junctions or go outside what you've mapped out..." She went to the trailer and took off the cargo straps, then took out a wooden box. She dumped the contents and sat down next to it, picking up webcams, WiFi relays, and battery packs, and combining them. "Between every rat out there being your eyes, and these cameras, we should have some warning if they're coming. Especially if they shoot the cameras out." Eight packages wound up with cameras, three more had only a relay and a battery.

Throbak smiled and caught the ball, then rolled it back to Pinky.

He looked over at Rosie. "Father never talk about play, but he talk about friends. He say friends are people who nice to you and who help when you in trouble. Throbak live in round caves long time after Father gone, but never had friends before. Try to be friends with people not in round caves, but they make loud noises with mouth and run away. What Mickey Mouse?"

Vril base

Vril base

Cybershot nodded "Then I offer this suggestion. We do not have the firepower for a large assault. So how about we stage a nice fire. A burning high rise Hotel or Apartment building, the flames would reduce the amount of Capes Eymber here would have to take down at least he wouldn't be facing them all at once. I would lead the stealth team to break into the City Records, stealth is more my style."

Gardner rose up and headed to an office "Come with me gentlemen. I like that Idea Cybershot, we get the distraction and still maintain enough cover. Come to think of it I believe I can recruit one more operative for such a task. Ever heard of the Pyromaniac known as Sunstroke?"

"Sir she's very, unprofessional. Thought she is known to do jobs she has a record of loosing it and going overboard. Sometimes even setting the people she working with aflame."

"I have a feeling Eymber here can handle the hot redhead. Am I right Eymber?"
------------------------------------------------------

Rat Den

"Alright, we know they won't use those red tunnels. There are... well those passes lead to into the direction of the Maul and there are things down there that are deadly. Even the rats won't go that way."

Walter and Gromit went to the picnic table and started drawing, Pinky bounced the ball showing Throbak all the fun things it can do and tossed it this time back at him. Rosie went to the toy chest and took out a stuffed Mickey Mouse that was missing a button and one eye was scratched up. There was a spot on the arm where Eric sown it back together, wasn't good but did the job. "This is Mickey Mouse he's a cartoon character. We got some DVDs but the power thing broken so we can't watch them." Walter spoke up "Pinky smashed it." "Only after it stopped!"

"Settle down out there. No fighting we got guests." Eric shook his head and softer "I'm dreading the day they hit puberty. I'm not sure there biology will allow them to reproduce. I need a medical expert to determine that. When they hit maturity they going to stop acting like siblings and start seeing each other as possible mates."

Eymber walked behind the the doctor, but beside Cybershot, his hand returning to normal as he placed them back into the pockets of his rust colored suit jacket.

"Doc don't fret, Cybershot you just handle your business being stealthy, I'll bring the Funk, and handle that fiery little red head, being a specimen of sin, fires my freind. Can you dig it?"

"Still, at least one camera

"Still, at least one camera guarding that approach. Whatever scares the rats may come out. A camera at Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie, relays for them about here and here, and the other four cameras right outside of your home here, with the last relay. Or we could put them all in this area, spread out, you'd have less warning against this pack of Vril, but more depth from other directions. And this old tablet will do for monitoring them, either way." The tablet was about four years old, and had a 6 inch screen (or about 15 cm, as Gunni thought of it), but it was now in better working order than it had been since it was first purchased.

"I don't know any medical experts yet, but if I run into anyone I think you can trust, I'll let you know."

"I think I trust your expertise. As for the little ones I still have time. I doubt we mutate farther. On the other hand I think there about three different subspecies here." Shakes his head "I feel safer to have some kind of security beside just my mind touch to the normal rats. It's unreliable it took all I had to keep the link to the rat your cat friend caught." "I'm just afraid what those Vril are up to."

______________________

Dr. Gardner nodded "Alright so how about we hit the hotel in Phoenix Park. A nice blaze there would draw attention and I even lend you some troops Eymber." Cybershot cut in "I shall lead a team of stealth troops."

Gunni shook her head. "Not a radiation hazard, it's that heavy water doesn't act quite like regular water, chemically. Plants watered with it don't grow, and animals given only heavy water to drink die when the concentration in their bodies gets too high. Good news is, I read that rats can tell the difference by taste, and this system is only going to be making about forty cubic centimeters a day. A few tablespoons."

Rosie looked at Throbak *you got place to sleep? Oh you can stay here it safe!*

Scavenger nodded "That's good believe me Heavy water has a lousy taste. It's surprising how many advantages my new form has. I can even see in ultraviolet, rats even glow in that spectrum. Thought the sunlight still strong even when our eyes reajust."

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

"Alright Eymber give me three days and then we see what goes up in Alixandra."

Throbak had just thrown the ball back to Pinky when Rosie piped up. He looked over at her. "Throbak had home, but then bad men came with black sticks. Sticks make loud noise and bright flash, make Throbak hurt. Throbak run away, hide in round-caves. Bad men chase and Throbak break them. Throbak find new home, but not have Taddy or blankie. Throbak miss Taddy."

He looked over at Scavenger. "Throbak live here?"

After looking around, Gunni

After looking around, Gunni found what looked to her like the best place for the tablet: Eye level to Scavenger, with a space in front of it that a chair could be placed in to allow the smaller ones to watch in an emergency, and not so close to the door that someone could shoot through it and hit the person looking at the tablet. She held the tablet up against the wall and asked, "Does this look like a good place for your security monitor?"

Scavenger looked over "Live

Scavenger looked over "Live here? You don't have a place of your own?" Rosie spoke up well mentally at least *He can stay! Help if bad peoples find us, it's safer for him here too! Oh and he can make sure Pinky doesn't get into trouble. Like he did when he messed up the loud thing.* Walter looked over *You the one who put water in it. I told you it takes special drink that smelled bad... but no!*

"Hold on Rosie put the water in the generator." Rosie hair fluffed up and she tried not to look guilty *Um..*

He shook his head "Worst is you lied to me Rosie. I'm very disappointed." She lowered her head and pouted *I'm sorry...* "Don't say sorry to me you didn't blame me, you blamed Pinky."

He then looked to where Gunni was setting up the tablet. "I think that would work. Hmm maybe in the station ticket booth. I haven't cleaned it out yet, but perhaps we can and make that the center security area."

"Throbak make new home in old

"Throbak make new home in old round-cave. No water. But it loud because of big metal snakes. They live on fire-metal. It hurt to go across, so Throbak jumps. But Throbak like to live here. Please, Friend Rat-Man?" he asked, plastering a big goofy grin on his face and revealing teeth that would have been at home in a gorilla's mouth.

Gunni grinned at Throbak's

Gunni grinned at Throbak's smile as she went into the former ticket office, opening up her kenning-sense to see if there were any surprises (pleasant or otherwise) awaiting her. Various obsolete business machines, that might be of value to a collector... Oooh, stocks of old tokens!... A rat, but he was likely one of Scavenger's informants, so she simply stood out of its way as it scurried into a hole in the wall...

He shook his head, then sighed "Alright Throbak you can stay. Could always use help with the little ones. How we going to get enough food for everyone I have no idea, then again you have been living down here already. So you have means."

Rosie bounced up and down *Yay*
