Nina and Naomi have arranged to meet up early in the morning at Naomi's place for an astral quest. Nina arrives with Trinity, the two ladies arriving together and greeting Naomi cordially.

Nina heads on in with Naomi to where she enjoys heading off on their astral quest and prepares as before with small adjustments. Before setting off into the metaplanes, Nina readies the following:

Naomi is waiting with Primrose,the two greating before heading in to prepare to depart on the quest. She has a her enchanted spear ready, collapsed and set in her lap as she sits down and finds her focus, and she has a F6 Increase Reflexes cast and sustained, just in case things take a physical sense of being once they are on their way. Once seated and properly centered, she slips out of her body and gives a wave to the spirits watching over them before darting off towards the THreshold.

As happens each time.. the experience starts out in the void of black… an expanse of nothingness and eternal onyx. The surroundings around Naomi and Nina start to take form though and they note that they are both gazing off into space as stars take form in the darkness. Looking to each other, that's when they notice they are both sitting in one of Serenity's shuttles and the small spaceship is turning slightly in an auto landing feature. A vast space port can be seen and a docking collar that the shuttle is auto-lining up to to allow them to dock and enter the space doc.

Shuttle: http://postimg.org/image/nj6jjziar/
Spaceport: http://postimg.org/image/63cdiajc3/

After the docking collar seals the shuttle door is opened and a long hallway opens before Naomi and Nina, leading them to a doorway to an office flanked by two large men with necks larger than the ladies waists.

Behind a desk sits Adelai Niska, looking as sinister as his reputation.
Picture: http://postimg.org/image/4ydpz67hf/

Niska stands up as the ladies approach, waving off the two guards to allow the ladies to enter into the office, "Well, I've been expecting you."

It occurs about this time in Naomi and Nina's minds that they are on heist for the Serenity crew and there is a plan. Mal has laid out a plan and everyone knows his plans always work.

The plan is as follows:
1. Get past Niska and his guards
2. Naomi take hallway A, Nina take Hallway B.
3. Both Naomi and Nina will come to a guard that has sole control over opening a locked door beyond them. They plan is to guile and/or flirt (Charisma) their way past the guard, to get the guard to open the door so they can go past.
4. Beyond the guard the next room has a security panel that is comprised of a blueprint of the spaceport. The controls on the panel control doors, water, electricity and the like. It's a puzzle.. to get the supply of electricity through the port to unlock the door that now blocks their way.
5. Beyond that door Naomi and Nina link up again into the same room where there is a massive rusty metal door:
Picture: http://postimg.org/image/4n0v05gf7/

The door has not been opened in ages. One of the three steel bolts is missing (horizontal bar on left). The remaining two may need coaxing to open.. they are rumored to be extremely rusted shut.
6. Unknown security inside the vault.. once past the security.. the "loot" is within. Snatch the loot and get back to the shuttle and to Serenity (which is waiting on the back side of the third moon).


But.. that is the plan and people outside of Mal's crew aren't always sure that Mal's plans work the way they should.

Niska becons the lays forward, "Nina… I dare say you should be more careful with whom you work with. The Order of Merlin is no group to dabble lightly with. Their resources and influence can do away with you just as easily as you took out the Nosferatur and Vampires in that plane crash."

Nina grimices, the super secret magical group she's been keeping quiet about just thrown out into the open.

Naomi looks over to Nina as she grimaces, not immediately familiar with the group that Niska is referring to, but this isn't exactly the time to ask questions. "And you, Naomi, you should be careful as well. Unless I am mistaken, your recent… let's say relationship, hasn't been started with the most honest of terms, has it. You shouldn't use people as toys to make yourself feel better, especially the people close to those you claim to hold dear. Unless, of course, you've decided to go back to your old ways."

Naomi crosses her arms at the mention of a relationship, and if looks could kill, Niska might just be falling over dead with the stare he is getting from the elf.

Nina looks between Naomi and Niska… but without needing to be asked she filters everything she hears at this point through a mutual distruction clause… what she may use may be used against her.. and so what she witnesses she auto-imunes Naomi from whatever implication or truths are brought because of it. If anything.. it brings her closer to Naomi, protecting her secrets as she protects her own.

Niska shakes his head as if disgusted, "The both of you… be gone.. I don't have time for you today."

With that.. each of the two guards come quickly at each of the ladies to grab at them and man handle them towards an airlock for some ice cold space-death.

It's quiet apparent that it's now become a case of kill or be killed.

Little bigger asshole guard coming at Noami (Rating 6 quest).» Junior Mint is coming at Nina (Rating 5 quest).

Naomi reacts quickly to the approach of the goon, her training kicking in as she brings her arms up and spins to the side. Both of her hands move to meet the goon's, pushing it to the right as she spins to the left of him, getting to his side and taking a step back as she prepares for a more aggressive response.

The thick necked knuckled dragger comes at Nina with a snarl and lunges at her. Nina turns to the side and runs around behind Niska, "No! Stay away! Don't you touch me with that nasty hands!" Running around behind the desk while leaving behind any hint of pride for unarmed combat.

Naomi's Goon takes damage:

Naomi is ready for the goon's attack this time and, as he comes in from the right, she turns to face him and gives a quick swing of her spear, batting his arm to the side once again and swinging the end across his body, leaving a long scratch across his chest. She takes a step back as she recovers, bringing the tip up between them again as she looks at him, grinning a bit. "Not so easy now, is it?"

Naomi's Goon takes damage:
Previous:
Physical: 1 box
New:
Physical: 10 boxes

Naomi lunges forward as the goon's momentum is broken, thrusting her spear towards hmi as she does. Clearly, the goon is taken off-guard by this turn of events and is unable to react in time to prevent Naomi's attack, the diamond-coated head of the spear hitting his chest and plunging easily through, poking through to the other side. As life starts to drain from the goon's face, Naomi pulls the spear back and gives it a quick twirl to shake most of the blood from the tip, grinning as the goon collapses to the floor.

Niska takes this distraction to step back and slip into a hidden door and out of view.

Moments later, a trid screen mounted in the corner lights up, "Okay.. okay.. impressive."

There are two other doors leading out of Niska's office, the one on the left has Naomi's name on the palm print scanner by the door. The other has Nina's.

Niska speaks and is seen on the Trideo, "Okay.. be off with you.. quit causing trouble in my office."

** GM Nina **
Palmprint scanner… to unlock you must channel magic (Sorcery roll) vs <Rating of AQ>. Every 2 successes = +1 KP

Nina takes a look around, looks at Naomi's downed foe and then to her staff, "Dang Princess… you're always going to be several steps ahead of me making me jealous of your power.. aren't you?"

Naomi chuckles as she puts her spear over her shoulder, keeping it on hand for now. "It took me some time to make this thing. I like to put it to use now and then. Besides, it feels good to use it, especially out here where I can really get in tune with things. You were no slouch taking care of your guy, though." She nods to the doors, taking a step towards hers. "I seem to remember a plan that we're supposed to follow. We probably ought to get to it, before he sends more goons after us." Extending her arm, she puts her hand on the panel and concentrates on opening the door.

Naomi's door opens and reveals a tube like hallway stretching into the spaceport.
Nina's door opens to reveal a similar hall for her.

Nina offers Naomi a nod, 'Okay.. sticking to the plan."

Nina heads then down her tunnel, the door closes behind her.. trapping her in.. must go forward.

Nina approaches a shimmering barrier and stops, it's not an astral barrier.. some sort of electrical field. She can't go back.. she must go forward…. she pushes forward, trying to be quick about it and hope it doesn't fry her brain.

Nina pushes through, feeling emotions of depression, funk, suicide.. she fights the feelings back and breaks through the barrier to the other side and feels its influence fall from her mind.

Nina continues on, she notes the hallway has portholes/windows on each side.. looking to the left she can see Naomi in a parralel hallway.. empty space between them as they move along matching hallways in the Great Black void of space.

Nina comes to a man sitting at a desk with a monitor in front of him that appears to control the door behind him… the door that blocks further progress. He offers Nina a serious look, "I'm not in a good mood today.. why have you come and disturbed me?"

Nina approaches and lays a hand on the side of his desk, "Oh.. don't be such a sour puss. A guy like you with such an important job in a space station.. you gotta be like the most important guy of all your friends right? They wouldn't trust any of them with how important your job is.. right?"

Nina sweet talks the guy for a couple minutes until he agrees to unlock the door for her and let her pass by.

** GM Nina **
Naomi passes 6S Soak Test.

Naomi steps through her door and sees a similar field in front of her. She glances over towards Nina, but the door closes behind her, so she simple takes in a deep breath and steps forward through the field. She feels a definite tingling through her body, but it's not as bad as she assumed it would be and she's through without a scratch. She glances out the windows as she walks down the hallway, giving a smile to Nina as she notices her across the void of space, then turns her attention to a similarly sour-looking guard, sitting at a desk and looking up at the elf. "Oh, look, someone actually wants to go through here. You don't look like you're on the list of authorized people, though."

Naomi smiles as she walks up to the desk, leaning forward a bit as she puts her arms on his desk, looking into his eyes. "You sound a little dejected. I guess not too many people come by this way? I don't know anything about any list, but Niska wanted me to come down this way to see something. I'm supposed to know it when I see it. So, could you be a dear and buzz me through? I'll be sure to let Niska know that you're doing an excellent job here, next time I see him." She smiles sweetly, fluttering her eyelashes at the guard as she does.

** GM Nina **
Naomi passes <Extra Charisma Test>

Nina passes through the door after the guard opens it for her and she finds herself in a reinforced walled room, a matching room on the other side of a plexiglass type barrier between her and Naomi's side.. allowing each of the ladies to see each other. Still.. they are in parrallel paths and not joining enough together to hear/talk or help each other it would seem.

Nina notes that there is a panel on a pedestal in the middle of her room (and Naomi's as well) and a door that continues on in each room. On the pedestal there appears to be schematics of the space station with water, heat, oxygen, electricity.. a control of the facility. The door in front that is blocking the way shows it needs electricity routed to it from the system.. it looks like a tricky pattern and puzzel to figure out how to route the electicity to the panel before she can continue beyond.

The guard looks at Naomi as she lays on the charm, eventually giving her a slight smile. "I suppose. Not like there's really anyone around who shouldn't be able to get through, anyway. I would appreciate you telling him that, though."

Naomi nods as she stands up again, still smiling at him. "Absolutely. Next time I see him, I'll be sure to put in the good word." The guard buzzes the door open and Naomi continues on, stepping through to the next part of the station.

Nina reaches down to touch the panel and a jolt of electrical store energy shoots into her body.. she fights back the assault and puts it out of her mind as she reroutes electric from a nearby outlet through the bulkhead, along the wall through another system and then into the door, unlocking her door.

Walking into her complimentary room, Naomi finds a simialr arrangement: a blueprint of a sttation and the controls necessary to reroute power through the station to the door blocking her way. She looks over the flow of power, noticing the drain caused by Nina's re-routing across the way and she gets to work. Tapping at the panel, she seeks out sources that aren't being used by Nina and routes them to the room, then to the door. When she's nearly done, the panel itself is starting to crackle with electricity, giving her a bit of a shock, but she pulls her hand back before she's seriously hurt, then quickly routes the power to the door. Fully powered, the door slides open and she passes through to the vault room.

Across the doorway to get to the next room is another shimmering barrier. Resisting <Rating>S Stun using Magic to resist.

«Auto-Judge[]» Nina (#6503) rolls Magic + Astral Pool: 7 vs TN 5 for "Soaking 5S Stun, KP: 1/33, need 6":
1 1 2 2 2 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 5 5 5 5 9 10 = 8 Successes

Moving through, into the room beyond she notes that her and Naomi's rooms meet up again now.. no longer separated.

ZAAAP! The excess electricity from rerouting seems to have formed a bubble of ions in the door that shocks her. Nina leans forward and pushes through without any permanent damage.
Before the hermetic mage and shaman lies a massive reinforced steel bank vault door. It's been closed for centuries from the looks of it. Three titanium bars lock in at the outer edges but one of the three has been broken off and is missing.

Of the two remaining bars that hold the door shut.. they look encrusted with rust .. or perhaps even having been welded together… no way a door picking could work.. no access panel. It looks like a direct application for Megakenisis if there ever was one. One application on one locking rod.. the other on the other locking rod. If there is chaos and random wierd on an astral quest.. at least one thing can be said.. there is a sort of continuity and clarity of expectation of what is expected of those on the quest at times.

Naomi steps through the door, feeling the tingle of the electric field as she does, the static making her hair starts to rise up around her. She can feel the current building and jumps forward, leaping into the vault room before the field crackles with a painful-looking flash of power, the door closing as the electricity in the system is spent. Naomi shakes of that drama of the moment and smiles as Nina comes through the other door, walking over to stand by her side and examine the vault door for a moment. "Well, that looks… difficult. How about you try to force the lower one and I'll get the top one?"

Nina approaches, arms spread for a reassuring hug, "This seems harder than a normal quest.. like.. the dweller is pissed." She looks over mid-hug to the lower locking rod.. dang.. that's like Mega strong.. not like a levitate.. going to have to pull out the big dogs on this one."

** GM Nina **
Spell Requirement:
Megakenisis at Force Rating equal to AQ Rating. Rather than TN 4, TN is Rating of AQ. Also, you need number of successes equal to Rating of AQ. This is like stupid GM evil level stuff.

Naomi steps in and gives Nina a hug, grinning a bit at the comment. "That's quite possible. He might be annoyed that I've been through here so often lately. But, I've had a lot of things to learn. He'll get over it." She nods and looks at the vault. "Yeah. I figure either megakinesis or, if that doesn't work, melting it."

Nina nods, "Agreed… let's try Megakenesis first.. not sure if my laser will work as a backup.. but I'll put everything I have into the first attempt."

** GM Nina **
Nina Success: Needed 5 successes, got 6.

KP: 8/33

Nina pulls in mana from around her, drawing in power.. building in magical strength.. collecting and focusing and then she wraps that control around the bottom locking rod and gets a tremendous grip with the magic and starts to pull… pull.. PuLL.. PULL!!!.. the metal creaks… moans.. and starts to bend.. the middle of the rod bends towards Nina until the rust/weld snaps in a pop of metal fragements and the rod pulls loose of the door, dangling on one end and free.. no longer holding the door closed where it was before.

Naomi incants in gaelic as she reaches out with one hand, gripping her fist tightly as she focuses on her magic, pulling at the bolt and trying to pull it free. Despite a terrible grinding noise, the bolt she's working on seems to be terribly stuck in place. Still contentrating on her spell, she lifts up her spear and approaches the ault door, bringing it up to start to stab at the rusted fixture. "It's almost there. I'm going to loosen it."

«Auto-Judge[]» Naomi (#11853) rolls Pole Arms/Staves + 4 (focus) + Combat Pool: 4 + Astral Pool: 4 vs TN 6 for "Stabbing at the vault door!":
1 1 1 2 2 2 3 3 4 4 5 5 5 5 8 11 = 2 Successes

After Naomi gives it a few solid stabs, the bolt finally starts to move and she steps back to get out of the way of the door. "There we go. I don't know if this door has ever opened."

Nina offers a snuckle (snickering chuckle), "yeah.. no kidding, I think you may be right on that one.. for surz."

** GM Nina **
Finishing: Place of Magic
Entering:.. to be announced momentarily upon door opening

** GM Nina **
Looks like the door is going to need to be pulled open.

Naomi walks back to Nina's side, keeping her spell active. "We're probably going to have to pull the door outward to open it. I think we ought to be able to with the grip we have, though. Shall we give it a shot and see if it'll budge?"

Nina nods, her magical forces still latched onto the locking rod she's bent out and broken, "That sounds like it makes sense.. on the count of three?… one.. two…. pull!"

** GM Nina **
As the door is pulled towards them it groans and creaks on the rusty hingest and the entire floor shares in the vibration as the room squeels with the twisting of metal.

And then.. the door comes free and it swings freely open and swishes outward swiftly on the hinges and then slams against the wall.

shit!

Inside the vault two Air Elementals rush out at Naomi (F6) and Nina (F5).. intend upon doing great bodily harm.

Place of spirits!

Nina resists yuck-mouth.

Naomi takes a half-step back as the swirling whirlwinds of air rush out at them. Spear in one hand, she drops her spell and focuses on the elemental, clenching her fist as she uses her magic to grab at the spirit's essence, the magical core of its being. The elemental stops its charge towards her as she grips it tighter. "By my will, I banish thee," she says in Gaelic, twisting its core and making it bleed magic, the elemental shrinking as it grows weaker.

Nina Banishing: F5 air Elemental
8 successes
Absolution!

Nina wrinkles up her nose at the yuck-mouth's wrech-breath and raises her hands, grasping the air elemental by the sides of it's whispy-face and snarls at it, eyes a bit mad looking as she channels some serious rage and energies into the being of the Air elemental…. she rips the soul out of the thing and the body that has formed slows… and falls apart in a gentle breeze as in the "astral" her hands are squeezes the life force into a ball of mush that is disolving.

Banished!

Naomi keeps focused on the elemental in front of her, watching its essence disperssing as she continues to drain it of its power. "By my power, I banish thee," she says in Gaelic, her tone making it sound like an order. The renewed will in her command echos in her magical grip on its core and, just a moment later, the whirlwind has dissipated.

** GM Nina **
Completed: Place of Spirits
Entering: The Citadel

** GM Nina **
Within the Vault rests a government military shipment crate with the stamp of Alliance upon it. It's the pay day the mission is supposed to be retrieving.

The Shuttle "now controlled on remote by Wash in Serenity" pulls up on the opposite side of the vault.. now why would an airlock be inside the vault? Who the hell knows… astral quests are weird shit.

Nina turns to Naomi with a deep sigh, "Shat man.. I'm ready for this to be over…. I think what we're looking for is in that crate.. let's get that thing on the shuttle and meet up with the crew.. right?"

Naomi looks at Nina with a nod, grinning just a bit. "Yup. Let's get this out of here and open it up. On the shuttle, though. It looks like we ought to be able to push it. Let's do it."

Nina nods… the two ladies work together to get the crate and out the air lock and into the shuttle. As they head off away from the space station they can see Niska in his offer shaking a fist at them, face red with rage and utterly silent curses and profanities in their direction.

** GM Nina **
Inside Crate:
Naomi-> A book explaining the details of the Armor spell.
Nina-> A book explaining the details of the Physical Barrier spell

The shuttle is on auto-pilot so the two ladies can relax.. and check out the crate and it's contents on the flight back to Serenity.
