OOC: Okay I'm not lost now, but I still don't get Laglas' charecter. Don't have a post to make someone else post!

"Fine! Don't worry about me! I'll be fine!" Abbie called after Jen and Marcus as they walked away from her, making the preparations for leaving.

"This is ridiculous!" She hissed to herself, getting extremely frustrated at her lack of success thus far. She had exactly 2 hours to interview these people, write the story, proof it, send it out, and film a news clip, complete with shots of the equipment and everything, and have that edited and sent out. There was no way that she was going to be able to do it, not with her current rate of success.

Sighing, and swallowing her anger, Abigail decided to do what she needed to do: type up the info for a story, albiet a much briefer one than she had been assigned; film the clips, but just don't include any of the crew, they were too busy; and just try to get it done in her allotted amount of time.

Pulling out her laptop, she was able to get the newsprint story done and sent in a half-hour. ~Not bad.~ she thought to herself, as she pulled her very small portable camera out of her bag that she always carried with her. The bag contained a flash camera, video camera, her notepad, and her laptop, everything she needed to survive as a journalist. She was finishing filming what she would need when Marcus came up to her.

Marcus: Come on, let's go. We're ready to leave.

Nariel · 04-26-2003, 11:49 AM

ooc: I've decided to resign from the military part and I'm just there in case you need an extra body. In the meantime, I'm still chief engineer. And, I noticed, we don't have a doctor, so I'd like to volunteer to be the on-call medical technician....

ic:
TJ took her seat and buckled herself in. Marcus walked back to the engine room, and the others took their positions.
TJ: All systems check in.
Marcus switched on the intercom. "Engineering, go."
Jen looked over her boards. "Security, all systems go."
Jessica secured the last of the drilling machines. "Robotics, go."
Abby buckled herself into her seat. Mr. Millerette was incredibly offended by the abruptness.

Kalile · 04-26-2003, 03:15 PM

"Well!" Mr. Millerette sniffed,"I had hoped to meet with the person in charge here, but this seems to be a very disorganized group." He turned on his heel and stalked away. "Have a nice trip," he called sarcastically back over his shoulder. Jessica just sighed.

Fimbrethil · 04-26-2003, 03:26 PM

OOC: Alright now that I don't have the navy seal to deal with...

IC:
Jen:Right that's all systems go!
brrrrrrrrrrrrbrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrbrrrrrrrrrrrrrbrrrrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrbrrrrrrrrrrr...
Jen:Jessica is it soppused to that?
Jessica:Yeah that's just fine.
Marcus:Are we there yet?
*two hours later*
Marcus: Are we there yet?
clinck clinck, chug
Jessica:However that might be a problem...

Kalile · 04-26-2003, 03:36 PM

Unbuckling her seatbelt, Jessica wobbled unsteadily to the rear, pulling on goggles as she walked. "The engine has a tiny problem. It'll take a bit to fix." With that, she set to work with wires and a wrench, humming happily. Twenty minutes later, the engine started again with a roar. "Whoops!" The girl smacked the engine and it quieted down.

Fimbrethil · 04-26-2003, 05:16 PM

*Suddenly they pop throgh and the light is pure and bright. The machine falls 30, 40 feet before it finally hit the ground.*

Jen:Sound off!
Everyone:*groan*
Abbie:Well they seem fine.
Jen:Marcus,get a medkit down here!
Jessica:There's no way I can fix that.
T.J:We don't expect you too.
Marcus:What is it?
Jen:I don't your the doctor! You tell me.
*they see riders coming toward them*
Abbie:Well this can't be good.
Rider:Who are you intruders? And what are these foul things you bring with you?

Kalile · 04-26-2003, 07:34 PM

Jessica nervously shifts her pistol so it is hidden from view. She is enraptured by the riders and their wild freedom, and cannot stifle a sigh of wonder. The riders notice and look at her, then recoil.
"What are those things on your eyes and mouth,? You stink of Saruman's machinery."
"

My braces and glasses?" her eyes fill at being once again considered a freak.

Ianua · 04-26-2003, 07:45 PM

OoC: is it too late to join?

Kalile · 04-26-2003, 07:49 PM

Ooc:Uh, we still need middle earth bad guys to kill, and I'm sure we need fantasy allies too!

Ianua · 04-26-2003, 07:58 PM

Name:Lanabeth
Race:Human
Gender:female
Hair: Dark Blonde
Eyes: Grey
Height: 5' 8''
Weapon: Bow and spear

Lana rides forward on a chestnut mare, pushing through the crowd "Now, Answer me this, Who are you, and why are you come to our lands?" She speaks firmly, but there is a hint of kindness to her voice

TopazJedi · 04-27-2003, 03:50 PM

OOC: Hey, here i am! sorry i haven't been on this week because my mom put me on internet restriction. as it is, i don't have much time, so i will type fast.

IC: TJ gaped inwardly. There were not supposed to be people here! she thought. Regaining her composure, she introduced herself to the rider.
"My name is Tabitha, and my company and I have journeyed far from our home seeking your world. We would be honored if you would aid us, or at the least, speed us on our way."

Amaranthea · 04-27-2003, 08:30 PM

Crawling out of the debris that was now that was formerly known as MOE, Abbie saw the assorted riders and desperately wished for her equipment. She had lost it somewhere during the rather rough entry into who-the-hell-knows-where they were. She would have loved to snap some pictures and film them, but then again, they didn't seem too trusting of any sort of machinery.

Tabitha stepped forward and talked to the....natives? Should she call them that? They sure were dressed curiously. Suddenly realizing that she had her notepad on her person, and not in her now lost bag, she pulled it out along with a pen and began rapidly sketching the scene before her. She had been rather good in all of her art classes in school, and could sketch well enough that she would at least be able to recall the details later to draw it out. Of course, in all reality, if and when she got back, no one would believe what had happened. Shrugging, she thought to herself, ~Well, I can at least always write a nice, long fantasy novel....~

Ianua · 04-28-2003, 03:27 AM

Greetings, Miss Tabitha....Well, since you seem to bring no threat, we will do what is in our power to aid you. What help do you require?

Legoles · 04-29-2003, 06:53 PM

Imhuriel as being ignored for the earlier time stepped out and said"hello I'm Imhuriel the halfelven." The girl over there with the metal in her mouth and on her eyes does not side with Sauron." said I. "She is with us and only has these things because they aid her in seeing things and keeping her teeth straight."

Sicirus · 04-30-2003, 08:15 PM

Legoles · 05-06-2003, 06:51 PM

Weve gone into middle earth and now we have been confronted by the natives, I'm half elven so I can stay if I want yay!

Nariel · 05-07-2003, 08:04 PM

Marcus shoved a huge sheet of metal off his legs and shook the dust off. Finding his med kit, he rushed over to make sure everyone was still alive. He saw the riders approach and tried to shield his eyes from the dust. When the talking began, he rolled his eyes and tried to gauge the firepower they had in those bows.
