He discovers that they are importing arms, and more importantly, special forces advisers from foreign nations. Things reach a literal boiling point when a warehouse of gasoline drums is set on fire, and now we will see who will live and who will die

>>72821>>72822Try to kick the griffon before me. I still have low HP
[1d20 = 8]>>72823Same here. I got 7 hit points left.
>>72822Using rifle as a club again. Hopefully staring death in the face makes me swing harder. I attack the one closes to Iron.
[1d20+2 = 20]>>72824>>72823Ooh.... It appears the rifle misses
A griffin attacks Iron with a knife
[1d4+1 = 3]>>72823>>72827The knife goes through Iron's hide and pierces flesh. Now it's Iron's turn
>>72829Iron punches nonlethally at the griffon whose turn has not started yet, placing +5 to damage through power attack.
[1d20+2 = 8]>>72830>>72825The griffin is knocked out cold. Now, Blue moves over, and quickly draws a knife to attack the other griffin
[1d20 = 8]>>72833>>72825>>72831She is not as skilled with the knife as she is with the crossbow or carbine it seems. Now, another griffon joins from behind
>>72833Is Atlas at it again? Am I discount Onyx in this situation? Also, for the record, I have cleave as my bonus feat. I'll be sure to use it next round.
>>72831>>72825With one griffin out, the order of initiative is again, Spark, Griffin, Iron, Griffin, Blue
>>72836Please Spark get some decent rolls, at least damage the enemy this time. Pray to the dice gods, Spark.
[1d20-1 = -14]>>72836Please rifle. I know we have had nothing but disagreements, but you need to hit something now. I attack the closest griffon to Iron.
>>72837*dice god prayers intensify*
[1d6-1 = -5][1d20+2 = 7]>>72838Hit. Rolling damage, and the Griffin's attack
>>72837>>72839>>72838Spark does serious harm to the griffin, while it fails to hit Iron. Iron's turn
Attack the uninjured griffin [1d20+5 = 18]>>72840I was going to do that lolIron again unleashes his hooves nonlethally at the new griffon, same +5 modifier and all.
[1d3+10 = 12]>>72841He spins around, and hits the new griffin with a roundhouse kick
[1d20+5 = 6]>>72842Iron activates his cleave attack to attack the injured griffon nonlethally.
[1d20+6 = 21]>>72841>>72842>>72838Blue Skies, for her part, drops the knife, and pulls from her vest a weapon she is familiar with, a .38 special. She takes a shot at the griffin who stabbed Iron
[2d6 = 10]>>72844>>72843Iron, in his attempt to spin around o hit the other griffin, falls flat, and knocks Blue down in the process. But not before blue lands a hit with her .38
>>72838>>72843>>72845The griffin is dead, the other two griffins are unconscious, both blue and iron lay on the floor, and tipsy has not been spilled
>>72845>>72846Iron groans in discomfort. "Sorry, Skies. You may hit me twice for that little stunt of mine."
>>72847"I will remember. Let's get the suitcase, get Dark Star, and get the hell off this ship and out of the harbor"
>>72846Any fight Tipsy walks away from is a victory.
"Ok... we got gold and cases of secrets. What else did we come here for?" I check inside the room to make sure it is indeed empty in there.
>>72848"Roger." He stands up and picks Skies up to her hooves. "Let us move."
>>72850"Got it." I head back to the stairs and go up to get Dark Star.
>>72849It is empty
>>72850Blue likes being touched in such a way, and reacts with a somewhat sensual purring
>>72849Blue is dumbfounded
"Is that the
same drink you got at the bar six hours ago?"
>>72852"Maybe..."
I hide the glass from view.
>>72852Iron cocks an eyebrow. "Alright. I will be sure to touch you like that, then." Iron looks at the now gone Spark. "Also, yes, I think he is a drunkard of sorts with his infatuation with that bottle."
>>72854"I don't drink."
I hold the glass out to show it is still full.
>>72856>>72854She has a look of mild concern for Shimmer now
"I will check the other suitcases quickly." She picks up the knife again
>>72857>>72856He looks at Spark and then at Spark. "Who shall I follow?"
>>72858*change one of the Spark with Skies
>>72858"Stay with her. I'm grabbing Dark Star and if somehow I don't make it down stairs with him, carry on without us. You got everything you need to complete the mission." I run upstairs and attempt to drag Dark down with me.
>>72860"Roger." Iron stands guard at the door of the room Skies is rummaging through the suitcases.
>>72861Alright, here's hoping Dark Star comes tomorrow. I'll stay for 15 more minutes and then I'll go to bed, just in case I have to fight some griffons protecting Skies.
>>72862She asks him "You want to open some locked suitcases?"
[1d20+5 = 22]>>72863"Sure." Iron proceeds to get near the first locked suitcase she points at and buck it hard.
>>72864And it is opened right the hell open
"Just a couple more of these"
[1d20+5 = 19][1d20+5 = 21]>>72865Iron keeps doing his current task.
>>72866"I think we've found your true calling in life. You could work for customs."
She goes to work looking for anything of value or note in the suitcases
>>72867"Anything interesting that you have found?" Iron looks to see if all suitcases are open already.
>>72868All of them are open
"Indeed." She holds a passport, and a briefcase
And with that, now I have to go to sleep
>>72870I have beaten the GM on sleep deprivation! I am KING!
Also going to bed >slept through the only conflict in the night
"Ummmm, do you ponies need any help..?"
>>72876>>72875Shh. GM is asleep. Where was your character at? I can guide him with little deviation.
>>72877*Her
Idk, somewhere between the ship and the motorboat.
>>72878Well, you can pretend you went back to Dark Star, which I believe is also the first poster of today, and then Spark finds both of you in the room. Apart from that, I do not know if you could do much else.
>>72879Alright. I think I'll go with that.
>>72881By the way, Ash should have heard that the giant army outside is non-hostile. At least that is what Skies wants Iron to believe, and I remember that you were there with me.
>>72885>>72884Oh yeah, I should have remembered that bit in particular. Basically we somewhat made up and accidentally tripped her. I am not sure why she did that. Did I grab her by the pussy or something?
Dark Star snaps back to realityoh no there goes the gravity from pondering all of the events that has happend in the last 2 days.
"Whats going on?"
>>72883She do believe that they're hostile. She's just worried that they may be if the party encounters them.
Think those guys that you fought last night are still breathing?
>>72889The ones with spiked gauntlets, probably not. The ones using fists, sure.
>>72889>>72894i think gm said the ones you hit without the gauntlets are just KOd
>>72888>>72895I wonder if Sparkboi will appear in the afternoon. I somehow doubt it.
Alright, we're definitely making a new thread, because this isn't working even for me by now
>>72875It is kind of a shame, since she was looking specifically for Dark Star, and went where he would have been
>>72887Time to leave the ship
>>72889I think the first one was hit with spikes. That one is dead if that is so. The second and third one were knocked unconscious. The fourth one received a bad clubbing by Shimmer, and then a bad set of damage die from Blue's .38. It is dead
>>72897The first ambush of the night was with hooves, so it's alive. The second, where the alarm sounded, I knocked out two more. Last one is that.
>>72897So... you will post the link here when you start the thread, right?
>>72900When he sees her, she has discarded the vest she was wearing earlier, rendering her naked again. She carries a suitcase under her left wing, and a smaller briefcase under her right wing. She smiles when she sees him
“Hello”
>>72901Iron is guarding the entrance to the room where the lovebirds are.
>>72901"Im sorry i got absorbed in my thoughts, i didnt expect
All This to happen when i accepted the mission, i just have no idea how im gonna explain all this. they probably wont even accept me into the party now."
Dark Star seem sad after he says this.
"... So.. what's the plan?"
>>72905Iron turns to Ash. "It is either walk away like nothing happened or get on the boat."
>>72907
"Dark Star makes the calls here. It seems we are not in imediate danger." Iron strokes Ash's mane. "So you do not need to fear another battle."
>>72907
She looks towards the boat
"... I had hoped to avoid becoming too overly involed in Equestrian political affairs for a while.. I would prefer to take my leave as soon as possible.."
>>72908*Purrs like a cat*"..... Oh, yes.. that's fine then."
>>72903She puts a hoof on him. “That blood loss must be getting to your mind. You’ve successfully stopped the communists from distributing more than a thousand rifles, and you killed two advisers who would have trained them how to use those rifles effectively, while killing or leaving to be captured more than a dozen communists. All while leaving the impression that the communists were robbed by gangsters”
>>72906>>72909“It’s time to leave. Let’s get out of here. Now.”
>>72911Ash wastes no time in getting down to the boat.
>>72911Iron nods. "Well, the time is up. Let us leave the premises." He follows Skies and Dark Star.
>>72910"At least you were not hurt in this battle, Ash. I am glad to see that. Iron keeps stroking her mane.
>>72913*." Iron
>>72911>>72912Will be phoneposting for the time being, so expect slower response time
>>72913*Purring intensifies*"... Hmm... I appreciate your concern.."
Ash seems much more relaxed now that all of the gunfire is over.
>>72911"i do feel a little light headed and Nauseous. lets get out of here."
>>72913>>72912Blue Skies follows, in jealous fascination of the affection
>>72918"Boat is this way."
She has a hoof over his shoulder, and pushes him the direction, as she follows Iron and Ash
>>72919Iron, in turn, follows Ash out of the boat. He makes sure to stroke her scaly coat after all the mane brushing.
>>72919"Do You think sea breeze will be mad about the fire?"
>>72924"Hard to say. I don't think you set it, and I don't think it's killed anyone directly, at least yet. Two police officers who responded to the fire were killed by Marecuse"
