Welcome to Gaia! ::

(( whoops sweatdrop guess my character went to sleep prematurely ))

Robert was roused from a troubled sleep by noises of activity. Bloody hell, he thought, Guy can't get a break around here.... He swung his feet to the floor, put his shirt back on, and headed out the door. The first thing he registered was the smell of cooking pancakes and his stomach rumbled. He loved pancakes like nothing else in this world. OK, so maybe that was an exaggeration, but dam* did Jojo make good food.

He registered the second thing a moment later. "Can someone tell me why there are there two slightly beaten unconscious men on our floor?"

(( sorry sorry sorry! that was my last vacation of the summer, so i'll be on a lot more now ))

Jojo flipped the pancakes into the air and let them land cleanly back onto the griddle. He slid the spatula underneath the next pancake and as he was flipping it he heard a moan come from the next room. It appeared that one of the men was waking up. Jojo looked over into the next room, quickly forgetting about the pancake as he flipped it awkwardly. It flew off course, and plopped on Shizuka's head.

Rowan walked out carrying his duffel bag which was much lighter now and a lot less filled. Rowan set the bag on the ground. "I have presents for everyone." Rowan reaches into his bag. "Hahaha. I feel like Santa Claus."

Rowan smiled and pulled out a bunch of cell phones for everyone. "They are nice flip phones and these have the GPS system removed. So if you loose it while we're out consider it gone. They have a ton of minutes on there but when you run out you have to toss the phone." Rowan then pulls out a bunch of ear pieces. "The last ones had great distance but I thought they were a bit fuzzy and to quiet. These should fix those problems." Rowan pulls out two sets of sunglasses. "Now I don't have enough of these for all but here are some heat sensor sunglasses. They can't see through thick walls to well but they should be good for spotting people through tinted glass and behind statues. It should be able to see security lasers if they generating a stream of heat."

((sorry, my family participates in a uh.. folk festival every year, so that was where I’ve been for the past couple days. I’m suffering from writer’s block, so this is prolly gonna suck…))

Nadia turned and followed Rio and Shizuka out of the room, following the voices that led her to the kitchen. She turned the corner into the kitchen, her foot colliding with something along the way, causing her to trip, and she stumbled awkwardly into the room. She turned to see what she had tripped over and saw the two bodies lying on the floor. For a second she thought they might be dead, but noticed one of them breathing and sighed in relief.

“So we’re taking prisoners now, huh?” she said, turning to face Rio. Without waiting for a reply, she noticed Rowan laying out new equipment on the table and walked over. “Ooohh, nice,” she said, fingering the glasses and ear pieces, “Upgraded equipment, good idea.” She slid the earpiece inside her ear and put on the glasses. “Wow,” She said, seeing blotches of red and orange take the place of her fellow theives, “These are great, Rowan.”

"Well I think we should put them in a room if we are going to question them." Rowan grabs the rope pulls them into a room. "Now who wants to question them?"

"Alright. Its been a long time since I have done any torturing. Errr I mean interrogating. HAHAHA." Rowan's face turns very serious very fast. "So gentlemen we can do this the easy way or we can do this the long and agonizing way." Rowan looked at the men to see that neither had a very talkative look on their face. "OK if you insist. Lets see lets see. Well Chinese water torture is to boring. Well lets see am i going to need to go get a car battery and a the jumper cables? Well maybe later if I have to. First I guess we could start out with the old fashioned force if you don't cooperate."
