Mission 7:  BBQ for Lupper!
Ralph's Pink Flamingo
Nice Hog!
August 23, 2018, 3:07pm
Hot and Windy but smells like BBQ and exhaust?

Lionel holds a steady beam despite the alarms on his pack sounding.

Mac and Jason begin to hear his own alarm going off as their packs begin to heat.

Roy gets a beam onto Cypork at close range just in time to help everyone drag the powerful Class 3 into the waiting trap deployed by Joker.

Not a moment too soon as Lionel's beam shuts off and the venting mechanism opens the cyclofuge and allows the power rods out for a few seconds for quick cooling before everything slams back shut again.

It was deadly silent now and they would realize that the screams from inside the kitchen area have come to an abrupt stop. Anyone checking their phones for P.K.E. would see the Class 4 is steadily remaining in place inside the kitchen area.

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Taking a moment to recover after the tense showdown with Cypork, Lionel rubs his head and face, wiping off the sweat. Wow! That was...intense, man! We got another one to deal with still, and you're saying we're going from Class 3 to Class 4, now? Oh, baby! We gotta be careful. Who's throwing the trap- Roy? Joker? Everyone else should get beams on it at the same time- preferably right away. If we screw this up, someone could get hurt. Let's be smart and safe out there, guys. Take a few moments to catch your breath and let your heart rates go back down a bit, then let's go get 'im! Lionel makes a mental note to add Gatorade or bottled water to their gear for future jobs. It may not be as physically demanding as a football game, but the stress and mental strain definitely get to you.

Jason nods along to Lionel and vents his pack, Yeah, we need to be smart about this. He says and pulls out his PKE trying to get a line on the final ghost pig.

Mac

"Agreed, also a these packs need a good cool down as well." Mac vents his pack as much as possible.

Joker

I will fire this time, as I have not used my pack. Someone else should throw.

Joker moves among his team-mates, evaluating their packs. If there is one that is more of a risk than the others, he'll let that person know.

Brains- to evaluate the proton packs
[4d6] = 10 ghost [1d6] = 2

Mac

"I should be a pack person."

Firing is Mac's specialty.

Roy chimes in "I've got a trap so I"ll do the next trap someone else want my pack or do we have it covered?" he says looking at what the others grabbed for the first time since arriving to the place.

I think I'm good for another throw. Jason says studying the PKE.

All packs are functioning well within specs. The cooling sequences worked perfectly. There are two trapped ghost and one that is clearly a class 4 centered in what looks like will be the kitchen area. The dining area you are in now is an absolute wreck and there is a Cypork sized pair of hold in the trophy wall as well as the outside wall. The class 4 does not appear to be moving.

Jason looks up, Looks like its in the kitchen and its staying put. He looks to the others, Should we rush the kitchen or try to flank it? There has to be a back way into that kitchen.

Mac

"One or two of us could go look around back for another way into the kitchen, maybe hit it from both sides."

Joker

I will stay here. We will use the Stantz plan, no?

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

I'll go around back. Who wants to come with?

Mac

"I can"

Roy "I don't mind coming with you Mac and Lionel."

Joker
Joker nods. Ready when you are.

Lionel "Freight Train" Williams

Let's move out, then. Roy, you should let them know when we're going in so Mac and I don't have to worry about taking our hands off the wands. Then, when we get the spirit caught, chuck that trap where you think it'll do best. Good luck, everyone. Lionel begins heading around to the back of the restaurant.

Mac

"Good plan."

Mac sticks with Lionel and Roy.
