The Kludge's Guide to the Universe | Dangershop, Wednesday Afternoon (Week 4)

"Now that you've mastered the art of the clever escape, it's time to master the speedy one."

Harper tapped a control, bringing up the empty cells from last week. "After all, breaking out of your cell is only the beginning."

"Your objective today is to make it to the spaceport on the other side of this dangerous, seedy city. You can split up, stay together, try to meet up with other escapees, then beg, bluff, and bribe your way though the city. One caveat though, keep violence to a minimum, not only does it attract attention, attacking your pursuers makes it personal. This goes double for deaths. You kill someone? You fail the exercise, as does everyone you're with at the time."

[ooc: The guards and inhabitants of the city are moddable for the most part since I'm kinda brain dead tonight but there might be a surprise or two.]

[ooc: OCD threads coming are up. Post away!]

"I feel that if I agree, someone is going to come up and shove me in the water and steal my hat," Cameron said, suspiciously.

"Why would I want that hat?" Sam shielded her eyes from the sun as she looked at him. "I mean, not that it's not very fashion-forward..."

"You're not someone," Cameron paused and blinked at her. "Are you planning to push me in the water?"

Sam looked at him innocently. "Of course not. That would be wrong."

"Yeah, it would be," Cameron agreed and glanced over Sam's shoulder noticing a patrol passing. "Dude, this place has more security Fandom."

"It's also got a prison," Sam nodded, also keeping an eye on the patrol, "but I bet Tex can still kick ass and take names here."

"She's scary," he grimaced and suddenly tilted his head, picking up on a sound. "Do you hear that?"

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

[identity profile] carter-i-am.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 12:03 am (UTC)(link)
"Hear what?" But Sam had felt something. Maybe an earthquake?

The noise Cameron had heard grew louder and it seemed to be coming from above them. Cameron shielded his eyes and grinned as he noticed a craft descending. "Maybe we should ask them the way."

"No one likes a show-off, Mitchell," Sam smirked as she headed off in that direction.

"You're just jealous of my hat," Cameron argued as he quickly followed her. He pulled off the hat and held it out the her. "Here, have a go."

Sam plopped it on her head, then tucked her hair up into it. It was far from the silliest looking thing she'd ever had on her head. "A little heavy."

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

"But very stylish," Cameron tried not to laugh and failed.

Sam stuck her tongue out at him.

Cameron happily returned the gesture.

Sam began to hope for a patrol to walk by.

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

Which wonder by wonder, it did. Cameron quickly straightened up and tried to ignore the glare one of the troopers send him.

"Is this guy bothering you, miss?"

Sam didn't snicker, but it was close. She glanced at Cameron, then shook her head, "No. He, um, we're fine." She blinked and looked up at the trooper, trying to look as young and harmless as possible. "We didn't mean to cause trouble. We're very, very sorry. Thank you very much for looking out for me, though."

"If you're sure," the trooper was mostly looking at Cameron, sending him an intimidating look which for the most part was working.

Cameron tried not to squirm and slowly put some distance between him and the troopers. "I'll be good," he promised and reached for Sam's sleeve to tug her along.

"You better," the trooper warned.

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

Sam looped her arm through Cameron's and looked at the trooper. "We'll be very careful. No more horsing around, I promise." She nodded.

The trooper gave them one last look, then walked off.

"We should probably get going," Sam whispered.

"Right there with you," Cameron agreed, glancing after the trooper. "At least they don't seem to be looking for us."

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

"Not so far," Sam said, walking faster towards the spaceport. "But they will, and it would be better if we weren't here when they come back."

Re: The City - Teams (Kludge - Wk4)

[identity profile] cameronmitchell.livejournal.com 2006-08-04 01:20 am (UTC)(link)
"Agreed," Cameron said. He didn't like how that trooper looked at him.

Sam climbed over a hill, then did a controlled slide on her butt down the other side. "Spaceport. Yay, us."
