"I...it hurts Miri. It always hurts."

[Katarn]

Jayne with Novae followed group.

[Tytan]

"Actually they can. But it's usually forest fires."

[Ketchup]

"I suppose, but it's all we have to go on."

[CamoBadger]

((3 hours later))
The group walked up to a small shack with smoke billowing from a small, rusted metal chimney on the roof. The windows were boarded with signs reading "Go Away", and the metal door didn't look like it was originally on the building plan.

At the end of the walkway leading up to the shack was a large sign reading "Danger: Do Not Trespass" in red block letters.

[Ketchup]

"...Not very inviting."
Quiver says before flying around the shack, looking for EFS signatures.
[PER 8+1+2 EFS]

[CamoBadger]

During his flyover, Quiver finds that the entire perimeter of the shack is surrounded by landmines, and the path leading to the door is covered by 4 tripwires leading to hidden defenses.

[Ketchup]

Quiver lands back with the others.
"4 tripwires on the path, mines all around. If anyone does live here, they don't want anyone getting in alive."

[XT Vengeance]

"Miri I...I saw our parents. Everyone who has died around me for the last eight years. I...I felt the raiders chewing on my leg. Their leader was about to...to..."Charcoal said quietly after a few minutes of silence.

[Tytan]

Clock speaks up, "There's a little girls life on the line... Fly me over."

[Katarn]

"Or...I can disarm it all...some of it. Maybe."

[CamoBadger]

Mira pulled him close and hugged him. "I'm sorry Char."

[Ketchup]

"I think it would be better if we disarmed the tripwires instead, if Novae can do it. If I put you down by the door, you'd be stuck there if we didn't."

[Tytan]

Clock sighed, "Fine. But we need to hurry. We're on the clock and we don't know how long we have."

[Katarn]

"We're not on you. And there is one thing that you don't want to do with stuff, that explodes. Be too hasty with it."
"You know...I just though. We could just...you know..ask. It's no problem with disarming this all, but it would be quicker to ask."
"From here." She added.

[Tytan]

"I don't think whoever lives here is the hospitable sort. I think we'll just get a bullet for our courtesy."

[Katarn]

Rolls eyes. "Just ask then, while I'm doing my job."
Novae carefully approached tripwire, pulled her multitool and...
[Explosives: 40/55 Success] ...disarmed it.

[CamoBadger]

1 tripwire disabled

[Ketchup]

"There might not even be anyone here at all. I didn't see anything in there on my EFS, but machines can be fooled."
He shrugs.
"I don't know."

[Tytan]

Clock internally groans. She calls out to the door, perhaps not as loud as she should have, "Hello?"

[CamoBadger]

Not a sound came from inside the house in response.

[Guest]

"Well, Quiver, if no one is in there. Then somethin' valuable probably is. Ya don't setup this much ordinance fer nothin'."she says as she eyes the perimeter.

[Katarn]

Novae carefully moved to next tripwire.
[Explosives 36/55]
She looked at door. "I have bad feeling about this.."
[Explosives 48/55]


"Or something really terrible inside, that those, who outside need to be protected from it..."

[Guest]

Shadow shrugs"Possible."

[Tytan]

"That's why we've got guns Nov. And if nothing else, maybe you can set the tripwires up again when we leave."

[CamoBadger]

Novae: 2 more tripwires disabled

[Ketchup]

"I guess we're going to find out. It's quite an elaborate setup, and something is controlling that flame."

[Tytan]

"If they're smart enough to use a chimney, they're smart enough to ask directions from."

[Katarn]

"That would be pain in the...back." She said bluntly.

[Explosives 20/55]
Novae wiped some sweat from her forehead. "Let me peek inside, there might be more traps."
Novae carefully and slowly started opening the door, looking out for more traps or triggers or something.
[Perception 7+1]

[CamoBadger]

Novae - final tripwire disabled

When Novae pushed on the door it didn't budge. (Locked - Medium Lock +10 to roll)
