"Working clubs as a bouncer, huh?" Murtaugh gruffly brings the conversation back to the matter at hand. "Got anyone who can back that up?"
Riggs stands up and motions his partner to follow him resulting in the older policeman stiffly rising from his plastic chair. "Stay put, Mr. Story."
Casino looking around at his present location and the hole in his arm looked at Murtaugh.
"Really? Where am I gonna go?"
The two cops walk about six meters away where Officer Riggs shows Officer Murtaugh his agent. The senior officer looks the screen over briefly before nodding and the two of them return to their seats.
"Tell me about Chan Wo, Mr. Story," Murtaugh orders quietly. "About six years ago? Ring a bell?"
"Of course," the wounded man growls. "I'm getting old, not dumb. So, what about it? I was cleared of all charges and you both know that already. So, why the interest? Am I being charged with something?"
"Just curious," Murtaugh shrugs and pulls at his bulletproof vest to situate it more comfortably. "Helluvah lot of identity theft going on these days. Making sure you are who you say you are."
Casino laughed then grimaced in pain.
"How many large guys with old tech that are as ugly as me can there be?"
"The blues on the street are finalizing the scene, Mr. Story," Riggs adds. "We'll know better if you're going to be charged when they're finished."
Emergency rooms are notorious for their long wait times and Night City Regional's is one of the worst. The waiting room consists of approximately ten meters by fifteen meters of polished tile flooring beneath a fifteen foot ceiling with recessed lighting. Thin steel pillars are spaced strategically throughout the chamber providing support as needed while barely obstructing the view. Two such pillars display holographic sign boards indicating wait time currently set at two hours, and the far right wall is essentially a television screen with a main show taking up the whole of it and six picture-in-picture screens (three on each side) showing alternate entertainment. The main screen is airing GNN's Abraham Hightower and Gina Sharon covering on-going news. One screen is showing cartoons, another a Latin soap opera, and the third on the left side of the wall is showing a fluff piece on Eli "Ramjet" Cooper of the embattled Night City Nomads rugby team. On the other side the screens are playing The Robot in My Bedroom which is a Desnai dramedy; Judge, Jury, and Executioner, a documentary on the notorious Sandman; and a public interest piece on contaminants in the water supplies being covered by a media personality Casino finds familiar, but can't recall her name.
To Casino's right, Murtaugh has settled back and is watching the entertainment obviously aware that they are due to be there a while, and to the solo's left, Riggs is reviewing information on his run-of-the-mill agent encased as it is in its durable black combat casing.
"Hey," Riggs says without looking up from his device. "Mr. Story. What'd this fellow look like who was airlifted by the AV?"
"Not much I can tell you. He seemed tall, maybe 5'10 - 6'feet, was wearing a nice suit, maybe a Si-Fuyen or something close. Was a good dancer though he was kinda clueless that he was pissing off those boosters. He had dark or dark brown hair, the hair looked recently dyed. Really all I got before the fireworks started"
Officer Riggs enters the information into his handheld and then studies the screen a moment longer. "That was a Trauma Team AV, wasn't it Murtaugh?"
"Sure was," the older cop answers in a distracted tone.
"Anything more you can give me on the victim, Mr. Story?" Riggs looks up from his agent and raises his bushy eyebrows at the wounded solo.
Pausing as if to think on everything Casino replied.
"No not really, what is it your looking for from me Riggs? Who was that guy, someone important? Maybe wanted?"
Before Riggs or his partner could respond an auto orderly appeared. Casino hated the things, always had, ever since he'd watched that old classic film about the killer robot, Terminator or something.
"What's the injury?" a three foot tall vacuum-cleaner with a holographic round head displaying a smiley face on a round, yellow ball rolls up in front of the three men.
"Gunshot wound to the arm," Riggs explains.
"Would you like something for the pain?" the face turns into a wide-eyed expression of question complete with raised eyebrows.
Not wanting to let the two cops question him further and possibly cause him to slip up he thought about the risks of getting a pain shot. One the one hand getting it he could act all drowsy and none responsive enough for them to leave him alone. However getting the shot, depending on the amount of pain killer used, was also dangerous as he could very well ACTUALLY become drowsy or get hit by a pain killer/truth drug mix and screw up his storyline. The big solo had to admit without his pain editor the arm f***ing hurt and he was no longer as young or as tough as he once was, but he could be tough once as he ever was.
Sighing as in coming to a hard choice, Casino looked at the orderly.
"No thanks, I can‘t afford it, unless this one is on the City police?"

Topic: Titansgrave Adventures Subject: Moving Forward
"So what now do, we try to get power?"
"Wait." Rhyson said before anyone could enter the room. "Before you disturb anything, lets see if the dust has any stories to tell." he added, "look for signs of disturbance before you touch anything, especially around that light."
Pausing to allow the Mage to move forward Tomiki begin his own visual search of the area. As he finally moved forward he paid close attention to what Máiréad was saying about the writing.
"This writing on the panels are Ancient Saurian, Lum come look at these; I can't seem to understand what this means."
"Them only letters.. don't know what they mean." The large Orc said moving over to look at the writing.
"It seems some sort of instruction," she said to him as they looked them over, "but if these are controls, they are only things that the original users would know what this means. But I think this is some kind of Main Control Center for this place; with all these monitors and safety systems. I don't know what kind of place, Military perhaps, or a mine, or even a sanitation center." She snorted at the last, she hoped it wasn't the last.
As he moved forward listening to the ongoing talk between Máiréad and Lum he paid close attention to the un-powered door, finally coming to the conclusion it could be easily opened yet cost them one of there precious battery's.
"I could get the door open however we'd have to use one of our battery's and what may be beyond may not be worth it."
"I like the idea of using a battery to try and open the door. I'd rather not shut the other door behind us. It just feels a bit like a trap that way. This place didn't look like it was abandoned for ages and ages." This coming from Rhyson as the first to respond.
However Lum having found an old but intact generator brought it forward to the others view.
"May be power maker,if I make it work we can try to use to open doors. Save batteries for later. Water come in,power go out."
Finding what looked like a water valve the Orc moved it to the open position. If there was still water in the system then it would be gravity fed to allow it to flow to the generator. There was a crank that would either move the water or build a charge to start the generator. Lum turned the handle several times and then pressed what appeared to be the activator button. The big green hands repeated the process while Lum listened to hear some indication that the generator was running or the water was flowing.
"If no water in pipes me try my water ..may not need much. If this not work maybe find power wire in red light to hook up to doors."
Hearing Tomiki and Rhyson talk of opening the door using one of their batteries and then Lum finding the generator Máiréad spoke up,
"Yes, that might be a good idea. We could see what is beyond. It might be more powerful than the generator that Lum has already found. I say we do it."
Looking at the other 3 Tomiki went to work attempting to open the door with generator or battery.
((OOC: OK again using any checks as needed. Also will add water to the generator to get it started. If not possible, will use a battery.

"Yeah, I'm sure you can tell from my old tech I'm not much in the runner biz. Mostly work as a bouncer in clubs like The Rat Pack—hell, only own the one .44. Ahh... I will be getting that back, right?"
"Provided you got the papers on it all in order," the younger officer—a fellow with the name badge of Riggs—chimes in, "and there's no proof you were involved in the shooting."
Casino could not help but give the young cop Riggs an annoyed look as he replaid..
"It is and I wasn't, I'm sure you can see that no shots were fired from the weapon. Not sure what killed the boosters but it was a hellva lot more firepower then one old out of work bouncer with a lone 44."
"Working clubs as a bouncer, huh?" Murtaugh gruffly brings the conversation back to the matter at hand. "Got anyone who can back that up?"
"The owner of the bar, she could possibly confirm I was there looking for a job. Of course this whole firefight outside her club may have pissed her off."
Riggs stands up and motions his partner to follow him resulting in the older policeman stiffly rising from his plastic chair. "Stay put, Mr. Story."
Casino looking around at his present location and the hole in his arm looked at Riggs.

Officer Murtaugh, for that is the cop's name, stares at the solo's face for a moment and then nods and settles back into his chair. "Age old story, I'm afraid," he acknowledges. "A few times a night actually. Most of the time the bystanders who get hit aren't as lucky as you are, uh, Mister,?"
"Story, Keith Story"
"So," Murtaugh continues. "Big guy like you with old school cybe, what you do to make bank nowadays?"

Topic: Titansgrave Adventures Subject: Into Darkness
As Tomiki watched Lum move the egg away from the heat he was still of a mind to destroy them himself. However it was clear he was outnumbered in that action so he said nothing as the Orc finished repositioning them for later withdrawal. As the contents of the bag were revealed to be just a rolled up piece of parchment the oriental raised elf was not so much interested until he glimpsed that one of the symbols matched the brands upon the Fire Bugs.
Bringing this to the attention of the rest of his companions he next checked the door for anything dangerous. Upon finding no traps or surprises waiting for the four of them he helped him push the door aside then followed behind Lum as the large Orc lead the way into the 20x20 room.
With the power out the room was very dark with flashlights out he could see this was some kind of old control room that at one point had both sides of the room lined with panels and large multi-screen monitors. Clear to the four of them that all the monitors and tech within the room was currently off thanks to no power. However a blinking red light on the control panels to the left was still working giving Tomiki cause to believe there was power somewhere within this complex . A quick check of the room revealed that the security door on the opposite side of the room was sealed shut.
"So what now do, we try to get power?"...............
((Making any needed skill/Knowledge checks while checking over the room))
