"6 bits"

>>74799
Now that one goes far. She eventually hears it hit what must be a wall or door

>>74792
>>74799

Iron follows "Alright, let us stick together and go for one corridor. When we reach the possible door, we enter shield facing each side." Iron whispers to Ash while she does her actions.

>>74802
Position is still walking backwards, protecting Ash from flankshots.

>>74800
"Here you go."
Dark Star gets out of the taxi and walks towards the hotel

>>74803
Four directions. Forwards, left, right, back. Which position does Iron take?

>>74793
The 15 feet is uneventful. She is now in a sort of Twilight zone, where she can't see the floor that well, although shinier objects would be visible

>>74804
And thus it is so
"I had a good time" Blue is walking towards the hotel

Sister Ash continues this process, throwing rocks pathetic distances and taking short steps, all the while using her shield for cover as she makes her way down the hallway.

>>74805
Basically, the opposite of Ash's direction. If she is forwards, I am backwards.
>>74806
Iron follows while she does it.

>>74805
She casts Light on a rock and moves forward, levitating it ahead of her.

>>74805
"i did to,i always have a good time when im with you."

>>74808
Door at the end of the hallway is 50 ft down from her 30 ft, and the hallway is illuminated.... well enough

>>74809
Alright, now does Dark Star enter the building with her?

>>74810
What does that even mean? Is there a door at 50ft or what?

>>74810
She doesn't see any shooters or traps?
"That's... Odd..." She says, still holding her shield in front of her for cover as she creeps towards the door.

>>74813
Iron keeps her back secured with his shield as he follows her.

>>74813
Roll a spot check

>>74812
Door 50 ft away from her position after going 30 ft down the hallway

[1d20 = 15]
>>74813
"Remember, there will probably be an ambush on the sides. Prepare formation when ready to breach." Iron whispers to Ash, concerned. This is an ambush haven. He decides to spot for anything that may seem dangerous.
>>74815
Ah, now I get it. Thanks.

>>74811
yes

[1d20+5 = 13]
>>74815
Rolling with the dog instead, since he has low-light vision.

[1d20+5 = 25]
>>74818
... Although, 2 spotters couldn't hurt

>>74816
"Got it." She replies

>>74819
>>74818
>>74816
I wish these were combat rolls, but if the enemy is going to be a pussy...

>>74816
Down the hallway, 15ft from the door, (s)he can see in the dim light a red object and a beige object. He looks closer and can see that there is a shotgun shell affixed to a board, with a mouse trap. Even more closely, (s)he can see a fishing line strung across the hallway

>>74817
Seabreeze sees the two, and Blue Skies shows a badge that she kept in her folded wing to a security officer. To the room I take it?

>>74822
"Spotted a trap. 15 hooves away from the door." Iron calls out silently.

>>74823
Geddit? Cuz ponies have hooves?

>>74822
Sister Ash picks up her stick, and breaks s piece off of it as torch.
She moves ahead slowly, still using her shield as cover as she burns the threads one buy one.

>>74825
*Levitating the torch

>>74822
"There's Sea Breeze. He'll Probably want to talk to me. ill meet you in the room."
Dark Star pats her head

>>74824
10/10

>>74825
She can barely see the fishing line, but she does see that it burns and breaks. The one trap is neutralized

>>74827
"Alright, but I have to get back soon so if you take too long I will need to go back anyways"

I take it he approaches Sea Breeze

[1d20 = 14]
>>74830
Iron, paranoid because one of them got him, spots again for any traps.

>>74830
yes
"Good Evening,Sir."

>>74832
"Dark Star!" He seems genuinely warm to him
"We've been working with the fruits of your success all morning, and we'll still be working on it for several days. Do you mind coming with me?"

>>74830
She takes off her other buckler, then cowers behind her tower shield as she waves the buckler blindly all over the hallway to trigger more strings.

>>74833
"uh, yes sir. right away." he looks back towards blue then looks back to Sea Breeze "um, you aren't mad about the fire are you?"

>>74834
Iron still follows, still looking backwards.

>>74831
>>74831
If there are any traps down that hallway, then they must be either magical or rather well hidden, because he can't see any. The one he saw earlier, and the two that have been set off, were decidedly neither magical nor carefully hidden

>>74834
No shotgun sounds, nor do spikes fall down from the ceiling, nor falling rocks

>>74835
He laughs
"We'll talk about this in private"

He looks to Blue Skies
"Blue, your lunch break ended 15 minutes ago. Come with us"

Sea Breeze gets up, and tries to limp towards the hallway, using his magic to lift his rear prosthetic leg

>>74836
There is no one behind him. That he can see.

>>74837
Dark Star Gives Blue An apologetic look

>>74837
She continues to flail the buckler about as she creeps forward behind her tower shield, now taking off her medium shield and flails it through the air along with it.

>>74837
Iron notes this trap for later, ensuring he will not trigger it when they explore the corridor opposite of this one. "We seem to be safe from traps, for now. Hope we did not spook any remaining members that were stationed here," Iron whispers to Ash. "The fact that they rigged this place with them means we will find information, probably for finding your target."

>>74840
"It can't hurt to make sure..." Sister says, still flailing her shields around the hallway until she reaches the door.

>>74841
Iron follows. "It is true."

Do they make it to the door?

>>74838
She sighs, and lowers her head as she trots forward

Sea Breeze limps to a room that is 3 doors down, opens it, and lets the two in. Blue Skies takes a seat in the center, and Sea Breeze sits down in a chair across from where Dark Star would be sitting.

Sea Breeze says "This one here has been giving reports of what she saw and heard all morning. Well, much of the morning, but we have not heard from you.

We counted 15 dead ponies, 5 critically injured, one who died this morning and 4 in our custody, two live prisoners, 10 dead griffons - 9 of those from a sea crew - one critically injured griffon, 3 unconscious griffons who were waking up as our teams came in and taken prisoner, and one injured griffon crewgrif taken prisoner. And a Changeling with a severed head..."

>>74844
Yes. It is locked

>>74845
>Locked
What's it made of?

>>74846
>>74845
Iron pokes Ash. "We may be dealing with another one of these traps the moment we open it. If you are going to open it, then stay away from the door and specially avoid the narrow gap when opening it."

>>74845
When he starts tallying of the body count dark star gets a big grin on his face and it gets even bigger when he mentions the changeling.
"yes that seems accurate to what i saw,Sir."

>>74847
"It's locked..." Sister Ash replies
"I think our only option may be.. breaking it down.."

>>74848
"And two dead Baltimare police officers..."
