"Crap, not the brightest move. I lost my phone again, anyone got a flash light I can borrow? Seems we may have to save the new guy from himself."

Thanks, I was trying to see how the other thread might wind down before I posted too much here and then sort of got sidetracked.

Jason gets up and tried to recover from the night before, making coffee and reviewing his emails, Screecher, taking his screen time to get up to speed but after the second, or third. Ok fourth! donut he begins to notice the HQ seems a bit empty, so he wanders around eventually finding the group outside "Are they looking down a manhole"

Hey guys, whats up? Please tell me there aren't alligators in the sewers here too.

Sam is going to follow down the tunnel.

He hollers after the shuffling man, “Howdy...I just want to introduce myself and see if I can get you anything you need!”

Sam takes a few pieces of his trash and tosses it on the sewer floor to mark the spot he entered from. The rest jangles as he hurries through the sewer.

Nice with steady rain

Update:

Sam is chasing a vagerant through the sewers!

Mac is worried he needs to give chase, not to the homeless man, but to the old rookie!

Jason is trying to work out what is going on.

Joker seems unsure what he should do just yet.

Lionel is still out on his run.

OOC: Sam is going to keep after the figure in the sewer and will continue to litter to mark a path every so often...the bag of trash isn’t that big so it is only going to get him so far.

Jason takes a drink of his coffee, and looks at the guys, there are a few people out waking their dogs or exercising. Morning, he waves, nothing unusual here, every day ghost busting, no need for concern, As he walks closer to the rest and lowers his voice, Right? Whats going on? Should I just call the ambulance now to be one stand-by orrrr? he stretches the last word out.

Hrothgar

Hrothgar yawns, stretches his front and back legs as far as they will go in opposite directions, then curls up again and resumes his nap.

"The new guy went down in the sewer after a homeless person. I wasn't here at the time so trying to figure out our best course of action. Any ideas?"

Joker
I mean not disrespect to our new colleague, but following the vagrant was a stupid idea. I was willing to try and make contact- but vagrants are like stray dogs. If you pursue, they will run. Now that Sam has gone down there, I am staying here in case he shouts for assistance.

Mac

"I have no way to see down there at the moment so I will wait with you."

Sam passes more than a couple of intersections, all of them going in 4 ways. You can roll a hard cool to see if you can figure out anything about which way he might have gone or your surroundings in general. It is wet, the rain running into the cramped space, and under your feet, there is the rumble of the storm outside as well as passing traffic over the road off to your right. The flashlight on your phone keeps it from being completely hopelessly dark but is not 100% effective.

Roy shakes his head "This new guy man goes off in the sewers chasing a homeless bloke, he's something else now isn't he?"

Nice roll!

First you notice that there are markings scratched into the concrete at each corner of each intersection. There are arrows pointing, indicating which direction. Arrows pointing right say things like "Mall" or "Rogers" or "Jenny Lind". East say "RR" and "Creek" and "River." South "T W." North "DT & LT"

You then notice much further in the distance the brief flash of a faded red jacket in one of the pools of light a good 100 feet ahead of you.

Also, the rain seems to be picking up and the water at your feet... is rising slightly.

Sam will keep in the direction of the faded red jacket.

Yeah you chase em and they are just gonna run, Jason looks over at the manhole and drinks his coffee, Did he at least take a radio?

Joker
A friend of mine at MIT would call him "colorful". He has his GB phone, but I doubt it will connect underground.

Despite his doubts, Joker pecks out a quick text message:

Sam- are you OK?

Sam will not get the text as he continues northward.

OOC: let me know if you need more direction from me. Sam is staying in pursuit!
