G. I. Joe!!!

[cheekyminx]

Scarlett

Watching Storm Shadow I saw the intense look - his eyes boring into mine. "ok, I wont tell. But Snake Eyes is going to be missed - What if Duke asks where he is?"
I look from Lady Jaye to Storm Shadow and back to Lady Jaye.
Oh this is going to be very tricky.

 

[Angelus]

"Hmmm... you have a very valid pint there. He will be missed but the only thing I can think of doing is telling Duke that he has gone back to his cabin to find clues. Duke will believe that because he knows that is how Snake Eyes works."

He looked at the two of them and tried to figure out what was going through their minds.

Jinx...

Damon grabbed Jinx' arm and pulled her aside. She tensed slightly but allowed it. His eyes gleamed as if anticipating her desire to fight him... almost welcoming it. He shrugged when she came unquestioningly. They got to his car and he roughly shoved her into the passenger seat before joining her on the driver's side. The central locking clicked shut ominously.

Jinx looked at him silently. He flipped open his cell phone and dialed.

"Cobra command... I have a Joe inflitrator..."

Even as he spoke the words her eyes widened in shock.

"Damon... NO!" She gasped grabbing at the phone. Impatiently he jerked away from her but not before he backhanded her roughly across the face stunning her. She'd had worse... but the shock more than anything frightened her. Her eyes narrowed as she clutched her cheek. Her mind working overtime as she considered her limited options.

Damon grunted a few times before finishing with. "Understood." He glanced at her with cold black eyes before closing his phone and slipping into his jacket inner pocket.

"You shouldn't have come back..."
"What makes you so sure I am a Joe?"
He smirked... "ya gonna start assuming I'm gulliable as well as stupid honey?" He asked.
It was then she recognised the look in his eyes. Anger, hatred, hurt. Her eyes widened in understanding. Seeing this his expression hardened.
"I don't need your damn pity bitch... all I know is that you'll pay... no one spies on us without paying..."

He started the engine and the car pulled out of the warehouse. Jinx fingered the cell phone she still held in her jacket pocket.

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

I looked at the two women but before I could say anything one of their cell phones ran and I looked to find that it was Scarlett's. She pulled it out and listened for a bit then handed it to me. I listened for a while and my eyes opened wide when I recognized Jinx's voice.

After I listened for a bit I looked at Scarlett and asked her if she could get the helicopter ready as I knew exactly where Jinx and her friend were going.

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

OOC: Sorry guys, been busy with my birthday and I have been posting eratic lately.

IC: I put a hand on Scarlett's shoulder before she could exit the building. "I've got it," I said,"I know where the keys to the Joe's helicopters are and I would rather have the features in them than the embassy copter. We will be needing the silent mode capability."

Looking between one and the other, I said,"Looks like Duke is going to have more than two AWOL....he is going to be up to his armpits in paperwork."

It only took me half an hour and a few close calls before I was in a Joe helecopter and waiting for the other two to show up.

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

OOC: that is not a problem Isolde- it's best that you celebrate your birthday than be here and happy (belated) birthday.

IC: As soon as I got dressed I grabbed my sword and slide it into its sheath then walked towards my locked and grabbed several other items. I looked around the room and wondered if I was missing something but knew that the only things that I needed were with me or soon would be.

I walked out of my room and quickly walked towards where the helicopters were sitting to see Lady Jaye waiting there for us. I didn't say a word but jumped into the back of the helicopter and sat down, closed my eyes and began to meditate- thinking about what I was getting myself into. Then I thought, no- it is not only myself that is getting into this but my team mates and friends were coming as well.

 

[cheekyminx]

Running back to my room and getting a change of clothes in my back. Looking around for my bow and lots of bolts, piling them into my bag. Hunting around for my stars..found them and piled them into my bag.
Then a thought came across my mind...I wonder.
Quickly but quietly I made my way to the armoury. I still had a key, so I tried it. Click...what a pleasant sound. I walked in and closed the door behind me.
Quickly I loaded my bag full of explosives, hand granades, m16 clips, and any other clips I could get my hands on.
Zipping up the bag, I cautiously went to the door and through the compound to the helo pad.
I jumped up into the copter
"what are we waiting for...lets go." I showed Storm Shadow the goodies I had in the bag.

 

[Angelus]

I saw what was in the bag with a smile then put my hand in and grabbed a couple of smoke grenades.

"These are all that I am going to need. I would suggest that you keep the rest for yourself and Lady Jaye because I doubt that where we are going is going to be a proverbial walk in the park."

I sat back against the helicopter wall as it began to lift up off the ground and began to meditate. I wondered where Jinx and Snake Eyes were and knew that if there was one person I would like to have with me right now it was Snake Eyes.

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

OOC: Thanks for the b day wishes Angelius and thanks for the e card Minx...much appreciated.

IC: I smiled as I felt the helicopter come to life beneath my hands. It felt good to be back in the saddle again, as they say.

Looking back, I nodded at the weapons that Scarlett brought, unfortuatly we were probably going to need it. "Where to, Storm Shadow," I asked, hovering above the base,"You're the one with that knowledge."

 

[cheekyminx]

OOC
Im glad you enjoyed the card. I thought about sending you a naughty ecard but I wasnt too sure if it would be appreciated. chuckles.

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

I looked at Lady Jaye and said, "Okay, we are going to the old part of the city. That is where the person told Jinx he was going to take her before the phone cut out on me. I just hope that we can get to her in time because I don't want to have to tell her parents that I failed in what I was doing."

 

[cheekyminx]

Scarlett

The old part of the city. Shakes my head. It figured. Would love to have a dollar for every time we have had to fight in the old part of the city.
Looking at Storm Shadow.."you wont have to tell her parents. We will find her and fight for her."

 

[Angelus]

"Scarlett, wait.... do you have your cell phone on you?" I asked her as I put out my hand. She looked at me with a weird look on her face then handed me her phone. After I took it from her hank I grabbed something from my clothing and connected it to the bottom of the phone then smiled when I saw what came up on the screen. I looked at Scarlett and said with a large smile, "I know exactly where she is."

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

I switch the helicopter into silent mode. No reason to give anyone notice we are coming and I turn back to Storm Shadow. "Dont worry, unless all three of us fail, we will get her out."

I smile as he says he knows where she is,"Isnt technology wonderful," I chuckle and then,"Okay, give me directions-I am going to pour it on here. We will be there so fast that Cobra wont know what hit them."

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

I walked forward and pointed to the large office building and said, "That is where she is at the moment. Is it possible that you can land on the roof of that building or near enough to it."

I looked out the window at the roof of the building as Lady Jaye brought the helicopter in closer and told her that I was going to go down first and as soon as she got close enough I threw out a rope and glided down it.

As soon as my feet were on the roof I heard the rope hit next to me and then ran as quickly and quietly as I could towards the entrance into the building, checking it for alarms.

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

I nodded to Storm Shadow and, after dropping him off, I landed the helicopter in the available space on the rooftop. Reaching in to the bag that Storm Shadow brought, I grabbed some grenades, rifle and ammo and headed out after flipping on the security system for the helicopter.

 

[Angelus]

Once I was sure that there were no alarms on the door I sliced the lock off it and walked slowly through. The first thing that I saw was the gun seconds before I saw the person's face. The only thing he didn't count on was coming up against a ninja and fell to the stairs before he could get a shot off. I turned and walked out onto the roof and signalled for Scarlett and Lady Jaye to get inside the building.

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

OOC: Welcome back, Angelius

IC: I saw Storm Shadow signal and I ran over to him, keeping an eye out for any 'obsticles'. Looking down at the man laying at the foot of the stairs, I said,"Good start. Where to now?"

 

[Angelus]

OOC: Thank you.... it is damn good to be back

IC: I looked down the stairs and then turned to Lady Jaye, "We should go down one floor at a time. I know that it is risky and Jinx could be killed before we get to her but it is the only way that we can be sure of getting any obstacles out of the way so that they won't be there when we on our way out. Agreed?"

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

I nodded to Storm Shadow and looked back to make sure Scarlett was following. "Sure," I said,"the three of us against who knows how many snakes. Seems like fair odds to me. Lets go!"

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

"I don't like these odds myself but it is the only way that we can be sure to get out of this place alive as I don't wish to die and I am sure that you don't either. I hate to put it so bluntly but there is no other way."

 

[Isolde]

Lady Jaye

I smiled at Storm Shadow, a hard, dark smile. "Hey, I always did like a challenge, my friend," I said. "As soon as Scarlett gets here I say we show these snakes who has the bigger boots!"

 

[cheekyminx]

Walking quietly up to Storm Shadow and Lady Jaye, I smile nervously at them.
"how do you want to play this?"

 

[Angelus]

Storm Shadow

I turned and looked at Scarlett, "We are going to do this floor by floor and get the Cobras before they have a chance to get us on the way out. That way it will make our exit a lot faster and cleaner."

 

[cheekyminx]

Scarlett

Nodding

"ok. Im ready when you guys are"
