Also, LSD/ergot only needs to be used one time and only a little bit to mess someone up for the rest of their life. It is not like pot or marijuana that can eventually work it's way out of your system after quite a while of non use.

Very Good Annie. This is something that many do not consider.

Thus far shown is only a symptom of the disease, not the cause nor the cure. Tammy will be a key but in only as being a witness with information. Knowing that she is still alive might be an issue to those who tried to kill her. Getting her and Bink back to SWA in Rome from Nemi will be a problem within in and of itself. Thats the rescue.

The Cloak & Dagger part if finding out who did it and why.

It seems the RF is not involved. It does not fit the modus operandi, based on the first season of Gunslinger Girl.

*Rosie is sitting at the bar, peering disappointedly at the empty mug that once held apple cider when Annie sits next to her.*

"Hey Annie! I hear you are joining the team. Welcome!" *She says. Before more can be said, her cell phone erupts into the tune of The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. Rosie answers.*

"Hey Charlie! Yeah? You did? Great!! Thanks! No that's not a problem. We have another addition to the team. Yeah Annie's joining. You can arrange accommodations right? Sweet!! Yeah, we're just waiting for Fernando to give us the word. Yeah, see you when we get there. Bye!"

*Rosie hangs up and grins at Hondo who is a few stools away at the bar*

"What was that?" He asks

"I got Charlie to load your Bronco and my Land Rover onto the Enterprise. Looks like we are set to go whenever we get the word."

OOC: Oh well, I might as well join, too. This means my character may be used in this round robin, but don't push it too far, and take care you stay in character.

When Rose sees Midnight enter the Café, she waves at him. "Midnight, come here, we need to talk."

'Why does Rose need to talk to me?' Midnight wonders. 'Did anyone spread rumors or what?' He sits down with her. "What's up, Rose?"

"A lot," she replies. "It started again. We received intel about an attack on Tammy and Bink in Italy. We need to intervene again. And we want you to join our team."

"C'mon, Rose, I'm not a Blue Helmet nor an RAS member. Doing occasional Rescue Ranger work every once in a while is already a lot for me. Why should I do that then?"

"First: You've been part of the team on our first mission. Second: We might need another pilot, and Gio Pinin's plane is still stored aboard the USS Enterprise. Third: We need every hand we can get. And fourth: You're safer when you're with us, for they know you've been on the first mission, they were actually after you, they know you've turned Miss Conijn around, and they might find you here and make you pay for what you did."

"I see, and I guess that's enough to convince me. By the way, have you talked to Rebecca about this? She might be useful on the mission, too."

"We have, but she said she wants to be left in peace for now, and that she couldn't help us anyway, things must have changed too much for her to be able to provide any information. Don't worry, she's safe here. Whoever is behind the attacks must take the possibility into consideration that she joined an American organization that's far beyond what the SWA was capable of."

The passage of the Suez Canal generally took one day. The canal had a speed limit of 8 knots, so that the wakes generated by the massive ships the canal was capable of accommodating wouldn't erode the walls.

For Captain Eddie Dixon, the Commanding Officer of the US Navy battleship USS Texas, that meant a long day for the crew to relax. No more drilling, no more constant lookout in the Persian Gulf. No, now they were heading for the Mediterranean Sea.

Again.

Scarcely six months had passed since Texas had last been deployed to help with the crisis in Italy. The ship had acted as little more than a show of American strength in the region, as there were some situations that a battleship was less than useless. Such as covert ops missions. A 75,000 ton battleship didn't exactly scream "subtle."

Still the Navy wanted her around. Something new was happening, though the vulpine captain didn't know what..

The Ticonderoga-class AEGIS cruiser USS San Jacinto was making the canal passage with the Texas, leading the battleship through the canal. Commanded by a friend of Dixon's, Captain Linda Hale, the cruiser was Texas's anti-aircraft escort. There once was a time, ironically, when the Texas provided her own AA protection, literally bristling with 20mm and 40mm AA weapons. But times had changed. Aircraft had gotten heavier and faster, and the guns had become obsolete and been removed.

But yet the old gray lady still proved useful to the Navy...and especially the Marine Corps. Acting as a giant armored artillery battery, she was the best friend of a Marine storming a beach, and a powerful deterrent to enemies of the United States who had any amount of coastline. While the aircraft carriers got all of the glory, the Texas was just as capable, if not more so, of projecting American power abroad.

So Eddie wondered why, yet again, his command was being sent to the Mediterranean Sea, especially after the last time they had been sent there. More than likely, it was another show of American presence in the region. Texas would be making port calls in several Italian cities, so it could be construed as a show of support for the "new" government, after the old, corrupt one had come toppling down.

Whatever the case, by the end of the day, the Texas and the San Jacinto would be out of the Suez Canal, and from there it was just about a day's steaming (at a comfortable pace) to their first stop: Rome.

1 Month Prior To Accident

SWA Mission Report;
Capture of local area dealer 'Bianca Scoiattolo' proves as a major plus to the organization's needs. The information she provided was not detailed, as intermediaries are used to conduct business with. This way, all hands remain clean of such activities if caught.

Secondly, Bianca is a rare red headed Italian Squirrel. This such coincidence is too great to pass up with our new Section 2 Agent: Tammy Squirrel. Arrangements have been made for Tammy to infriltate the drug cartel and come back with Intell that can be used on a Fratello Team Extermination Mission against those who are filling the streets with poisons.

Recorded Cell Phone Call on Answering Machine:

Tammy: Hello Jean, This is Tammy. I have all the information of shipping routes, supply and exchange stops, and money transfer lists. There is also information of the stuff to be test by having a large amount of it dumped into Lake Nemi- polluting the drinking water for many small towns in the area. I will be leaving for Rome as soon as Bink and I can pack up.

Nemi Public Safety Accident Report:

@10:55am, several phone calls were made to our services of red sports car being cut off by a black sedan on Via Perino, going southbound towards hiway: SS7. The red sports car hit the guard rail and dove into Lake Nemi. Emergency Rescue Personnel were within minutes of the accident. The black sedan was not to be found.

Found inside the the red sports car were two female squirrel occupants: the driver to be in her early 20's with red hair, the passenger in her preteens, blonde. Both were found unconscious at the scene and immediately brought to a hospital care center at Nemi.

Thus begins Gunslinger Bink II...

Clues will be given out as each step is brought fourth.
So, who is what, where?

I'm currently at the Cafe, either preparing my plane for takeoff, or (if we still use the TaleSpin-like setting) trying to find information and transport to Italy.

I'm at the Café, too, and maybe thinking of a safe way to get to the Mediterranean. Gio Pinin's silver warbird (which I captured in GsB 1) is stored aboard the USS Enterprise and devoid of explosives (which might still be on the carrier, too, I don't know). The Storm will remain here, I won't have any use for it. I'll probably not stay here, too, because I'm known to "them" too well.

The AI is currently stored on servers at the Cafe, and is currently projecting itself as a bat in the Cafe via Protocol 7. I could simply re-project to Italy, if I had a better idea of where something appearing out of thin air would not cause unwanted comment; since I don't, I am looking at more traditional methods of transport and noting that trying to take tripods through customs would also lead to unwanted questions and therefore they remain behind.

Always drink upstream from the herd.

After eating an entire bull, a mountain lion felt so good he started roaring. He kept it up until a hunter came along and shot him. The moral:
When you're full of bull, keep your mouth shut.

Long ago when men cursed and beat the ground with sticks, it was called witchcraft. Today it's called golf.

There are three kinds of men: The ones that learn by reading. The few who learn by observation. The rest of them have to pee on the electric fence and find out for themselves.

Never approach a bull from the front, a horse from the rear, or a fool from any direction. ImageIf you're riding' ahead of the herd, take a look back every now and then to make sure it's still there.
