Wierd Science Part 4
You slowly close the door and leave the two to talk about their movie.
"You know, I don't think Mr. Pink got away with the diamonds. But they got away somehow" Jasmine says. In the background, you hear the chattering of the police scanner. "I mean, what else was in that briefcase in Pulp Fiction? The fucking diamonds"
You're about to make a mental note to tell her that diamonds don't glow yellow when you open the door a crack.
A tall man, is walking towards the door. He's a tall, well built man with his black hair styled in a spiked mohawk and stubble across his face. He's dressed in the same blue that the other two hired goons were in, but he's wearing a set of fatigues as opposed to the cargo pants and t shirts that the other two were wearing. You also notice that he's only has a sidearm, as opposed to the rifles that the other two were wearing. As he walks towards the door, he carries himself with confidence and authority. However, he hasn't seen you yet.
[] Rush in and take the initiative. Use your speed to put him down before he can attack you.
- [] Write in how you're going to attack.
[] Wait until he comes through the door and ambush him.
- [] Write in how you're going to attack.
[] Ask the man to order some pizza for you too.
[] Write in.

Dexterity roll it is.
Wow, I was going to have this be a mini boss fight, but the guy biffed his IQ roll to avoid surprise, and his Constitution roll to keep himself together. He is out.
But he does get off one attack, so I'm going to need a Constitution roll with 15 subtracted from the roll because of your armor.

Rolling constitution
18-15 = 3
Not bad.
Edit: Shoot - was going to see if you could do a dice roll - number in the box itself

You get in position, sheathing your sword and shield. You hear the footsteps get closer and you take a deep breath, anticipating the fight that could come if you mess this up. As soon as the man opens the door, you lunge forward, faster than the man can react. In one motion, you punch him in the face, pull him closer, spin him around and use your left arm to choke the man. He lets out a short gasp and tries in vein to pry your arm off of him so he can slip under, but your strength makes his efforts fruitless.
But as he starts to slump down, his eyes start to glow a bright blue, and before you know it, the man discharges a brilliant wave of electricity. Electricity crackles from the man's body and runs over your own, your armor acting as an insulator, making you just feel a slight tingle. A stray bolt hits a fluorescent lightbulb above, causing it to crack open and for small glass shards to fall on you both. But eventually, the electricity abates, and the man slumps further and further, until you're the only person supporting the man. Slowly, you lower him to the ground, unconscious.
That... went better than you thought. There are some minor burns on your armor, but you feel great.
[] Search the man. He might have a keycard, a note, or something useful.
- [] And if he has a wallet, take it.
[] Go back through the other doors and deal with the two guards there.
[] Go through the double doors the man was coming from.
Meanwhile...
"... you can hear the cops shouting 'Are you the cop killer? Are you the cop killer?' right outside the warehouse. And you know what? He was." The shorter of the two guards says. "They probably took him and made sure he "'Committed suicide' or 'Died trying to escape'"
"Yeah, you're probably right Shit, I really liked Mr. Pink." The taller guard, Nat says, eating another potato chip. She looks more sullen. "That's real fucked up, you know, Kate?"
Kate, the shorter guard nodded in agreement. "Yeah, that's why you don't get caught if you gotta pop a cop"
At that, Nat chuckled. "Heh, pop a cop..." Neither of them noticed a soft thump, and the sound of an electrical discharge two rooms over. You heard about that that Jimmy Whathisname just announced he was running for President?"
"The 'Rent is Too Damn High' guy?" Kate asked incredulously. "Is that some kind of joke?"

If you want to vote against that course of action, then I can hold off the next post just in case other people vote as well. Though since I've already rolled for *Indistinct mumbling*, those rolls may or may not still stand if you vote to do something else.

Honestly I thought we were searching the wallet for ID .
Well, you're probably going to find both money and ID in a wallet.

Yeah - I'm going to be trying to not get us into petty looting because itchy fingers is a bad habit to get into

You start to search the man's fatague pockets. You find a wallet, which you put in your armor. You'll sort through that later. For now, you have slightly more pressing matters to worry about. Sticking out of the wallet, is a keycard, but the keycard doesn't seem to go to the door straight ahead. Besides that, all he has on him is an automatic pistol.
You grab the barrel in one hand and the grip in the other. You don't have a holster or any bag to store it in, and you don't want this guy to have a gun when he wakes up. With a grunt you start to bend the gun. ThHe gun resists for less than a second until the barrel starts to bend under the pressure you put it under. You're planning on just leaving it at a right angle to keep anyone from using it, but...
*Snap*
You look at the now two halves of the gun, one in each hand. Well, that wasn't what you had in mind, but it works just as well. You toss the now useless gun to the side and get back up.
