"Yo dudes, what's the hangup? Ya gonna give me the cash or not?" The questionable man was still standing there, looking for all the world like he was on the verge of threatening-
- That is, until someone else arrived on the scene, took one look at Marcus and the other trainees, then at the man holding out his hand demanding money and quickly intercepted. "Steve?" They said, rather loudly, grabbing a hold of Marcus, and pulling them to one side, "What are you doing here my young but errant brother?"
They kept on pulling the Marcus - and by extension - the trainee group, until they were quite a bit away from the questionable man, standing at a side exit of the liquor store and broke into a smile. "Fancy seeing you here again, trainee." A set of blank looks greeted him. "Oh, you prolly don't remember me, but I remember you, Marcus, the... the maxi pad whisperer." They burst into laughter again, having at least the decency to half-cover their mouth. "I was the Hunter on sentry duty that fateful night, though you guys really don't seem like the heavy liquor type of people, having coping issues or another set of Julie missions?"
There was a pause before the sentry Hunter finally grabbed Marcus's hand and shook it enthusiastically. "I'm Richard by the way, but everyone just calls me d**k. I take it with a grain of salt, y'know."
Thankfully at that time, a message from Julie also arrived:

Cass seemed more inclined to follow this stranger who was dragging Marcus off rather than following after Mr. Might-be-a-cop, tagging along with the pair until they'd been whisked away from the situation at hand. However, it seemed that the first words out of his mouth caused her to look to Marcus, this look on her face like she was trying to not giggle.
"That was you?" she asked. Yes, she'd heard rumor of the trainees who had gone through a fabulous mission involving pads, but..Marcus? Her Marcus? Him? He'd done that? The mental image was just....so charming. And hilarious. She probably would be the only one to not break out into a fit of laughter at the new knowledge.
Maybe.

Gale, unlike Cass, who was attempting to be calm about it, was too busy laughing at maxi pad whisperer to really pay much attention to anything else at the current moment.

Ryan choked back a laugh.
"The maxi pad whisperer?" He'd love to hear the story behind that one!

He wasn't going to ever speak about that night ever again. He'd made a pact with Jordan and Leon and he was not about to break it. But oh thank god for an older hunter. "No to the first yes to the second. And uh-" hand grabbed Marcus shook it back. "Nice to formally meet you too er, d**k." Well maybe he could help. "Julie woke me up for a mission telling me to bring people. That was before it became apparent that it was a booze run. Have enough cash to cover it given the last of the money of my card, but, still, we're all illegal and I don't think barging in with out weapons would be a great idea." Dilemmas. Life was made of them for hunters. "Don't suppose you might be able to help us out here? She gave us a list, but ******** if I know the cost of it all."

"A booze run," d**k repeated, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "Yeah, I can help, sure, but you sure you guys got enough money? Normally she asks for ten bottles of everything, including Absinthe, thank god for places that actually sell that s**t, and there's no way in hell I'm carrying all of that, so how about this. I'll ID and buy your 'mission'" - airquotes - "articles, and you guys help me find and carry them to the cashier. Its not like they can ID you if you're not buying right?"
Another pause. "And you guys owe me after this too, maybe an IOU mission or something."
Before Marcus could say 'yes' or 'no', he had already opened the side entrance of the store, waiting expectantly for all of them to follow, only closing the door when the last of the trainees was inside. "Okay I'm gonna go buy something for myself and you guys go get your list contents figured out. Once you're ready, meet back with me in fifteen minutes at the cashier."
Sounded simple enough.
THE BOOZE RUN The Liquor store has 6 separate aisles, each one containing contents from Julie's mission. To complete the 'run', each player must gather a collective total of:
- 10 quarts of mulled eggnog
- 10 bottles of dessert wine
- 10 bottles of apple cider
- 10 bottles of Absolut Vodka (Blueberry only please)
- 10 bottles of Sparkling Champagne
- 10 bottles of Absinthe Rules:- You must make two posts per attempt to grab a select amount of items. You can roll as many times as you want, but you must ALWAYS roll the two posts: one for the AISLE and one for the AMOUNT OF BOTTLES you obtain. Ie, Roll 1, roll 2. Roll 1, roll 2. Continue in this order until done!
- PLEASE LIST YOUR BOTTLE GAIN AT THE BOTTOM, though Marcus is in charge of tallying the total amount gained
- Please quote Zoomutt when you are ALL done! (Marcus)AISLE ROLL:- Roll a 6-sided dice first. This determines the AISLE you are in. Match your AISLE results to the dice roll results below, be sure you rp out your character walking to that aisle.
Aisle One: Holiday liquor - where the mulled eggnog can be found
Aisle Two: Vodka - Where vodka can be found, obviously
Aisle Three: Champagne- For the sparkling champagne
Aisle Four: Dessert Wines
Aisle Five: Promotional booths - where the apple cider can be found
Aisle Six: The stash at the back - where absinthe is suspiciously hiding there... BOTTLE ROLL:- AFTER you rp out visiting that aisle, your next dice roll determines how many bottles you get without arousing suspicion. Roll a 100-sided dice and match your roll to the results below. Be sure to rp out the result.
1-20: You manage to grab exactly five bottles before someone who looks suspiciously dressed like a cop starts to eye you... and reach for the phone. Crap! You better lay low... +5 bottles of whatever is your CURRENT AISLE
21- 40: You are way too confused by these bottles. Bottles. Bottles. EVERYWHERE. You run out of the aisle empty handed... +0
41 - 60: Some customers are looking at you funny as you grab five bottles before you flee. +5 bottles of whatever is your CURRENT AISLE
61 -80: An elderly woman intercepts you and asks you if you are lost and if you need help, eyeing you suspiciously. She then talks about how she actually works for the teenage center for youth rehabilitation and that you really, should come with her... +0
81 - 100: You manage to grab quite a haul, and you do it with stealth. +5 bottles of whatever is your CURRENT AISLE

Marcus sent another text to Julie. He was sure his maturity level dropped along with some of his IQ but, a ':C' face summed up Julie missions pretty accurately. d**k was an angel, even if Marcus had a gut feeling that the IOU mission would be terrible and possibly scarring. But then, when were hunter missions not? d**k was at least reasonable and willing to help without making them want to bash their heads in. "Thanks d**k." Nodding as he walked off, he paused to look over Gale's shoulder. "One sec Gale." A quick glance to the list and he was already moving down one of the isles. Dessert Wines. Eh, not his thing but- what one to get?

Dakota was still dumbfounded as they made their way into the store. Seriously? We're the even allowed to be in here. He looked over to Otto and grinned.
"Here's to hoping we find what we need...Never had..." He peeked over the shoulder of the man, "Mulled Eggnog dude...."
It actually sounded gross.

Dessert wines... Dessert wines. What the ******** was good and what tasted like piss? Strangely, this was coming from a guy who'd once upon a time would drink some beer on occasion. That was before he'd gone to the island. Booze wasn't his priority after all on a regular day. But this mission? Maybe if he did really well Julie wouldn't pick on him. Maybe. He doubted it but he could dream couldn't he? Picking up some bottles, he froze for a second as a guy looked over at him. The guy looked like a cop. Marcus probably looked like some underage crazy druggie from the way he was dressed. The guy was also reaching for his phone. Picking up what he'd gotten, Marcus figured it was time to move.

Ryan shuffled into the store along with the others, immediately pulling his hands out of his pockets and rubbing them together to warm up. After spending all that time out in the cold, the warm air felt pretty nice. Even if it smelled of booze.
"I'll go this way then..." He whispered quietly to the others, walking off towards the sixth aisle and the Absinthe.
It was great that the hunter.... d**k, had offered his help, especially since they were out of options---other than to go back and risk their time and money on the other suspicious man. However, the idea of an IOU mission later on didn't sit too well with Ryan. What if the mission they owed this hunter turned out to be worse than this one? Then again, he was sure he'd be fine with it, so long as it wasn't at three in the morning and if Julie wasn't involved.

He wanted to be like....
"Can we please be called the Alcohol Power rangers? Our dastardly villian...The Alcohol bottles!" Apparently it being 3am with little sleep didn't help Dakota's extra nerdy self. And with Cass being the only female...he didn't really have to keep up a cool image. Yawning he started down the...
Promotional Aisle. s**t, what was on the list again?
And how would you know Chama?
As he found the bottles, he grabbed five before grinning. This was going to be....
Eh, Not interested Chama...He thought before looking over...was that a cop. Shiiiiiiiiiit.
Shortening himself down the aisles, he grinned as he moved over, spotting Marcus.
"Yo Alpha Ranger, you see that guy? Cop!??!" He waved as he held the five bottles.

Okay... so far so good! He found the bottles of the green liquid crap stashed away at the back of the store ( luckily that s**t was labeled ) and now all he had to do was carry them all back.
They needed ten of these things if he re-called the numbers on the list correctly... Unfortunately, by the time he had five tucked snugly into his arms and he was wondering if he should make two trips, Locke hissed into his mind.
:Hey hey! Who's the fleshy over there?:
Huh?
Ryan turned just in time to see the man in question pull out a phone. He was staring directly at him... Well... a minor carrying five bottles, who was oddly dressed would raise suspicion wouldn't it...?
Crap! Lets take these back to the counter and hope he leaves!
It wasn't like he was stealing them or faking his age to buy them. He didn't have anything to worry about right?
"I saw him too..." He whispered, coming up to stand beside the others as he deposited the five bottles he had collected on the counter.

HE did see the cop but you don't mention cops then they will hear you and hunt you don't- oh god he didn't want to end up in jail or worse-
In a pod.
"Keep it together man. Just- act causal. Like you buy booze all the time. This is nothing new. Okay? Keep it cool." If Marcus could do the same that would be amazing. At least Dakota had gotten some. "Let me see if I can't get the rest of that."
