Insane Cafe 3: The Curse of the Haunted Hotel

[Kor]

The tin woodman continued using his axe carve and shape some wood so it could go towards repairing the hotel.  He was as skilled as a skilled wood carver, though he needed to use only his axe, and not various woodworking tools like most others would.

----------------------

Mikey, and Leonardo used stealth to go around to see where they could eliminate enemy troops while reaming in stealth hiding.   Raphael would also remain in stealth, till he saw some enemies.  Then he'd rush out to attack them.  Mikey and Leonardo mainly remained in hidden stealth, moving after their attacks so the folks they were fighting could not be sure how many there were and would not know there were only 3 of them.

[Serris]

Deimos radioed Sara. "Sara, could you please find some rubble and stuff so Stripetail can make a detention center? We're doing a bit of scavenging ourselves. Deimos out," he said. He then turned off the radio and picked up an enormous slab of concrete and put it into the truck. Several volunteers threw bricks pulled from the rubble into the back of the trucks.

[Nick22]

over in Neptune City the sky was turning red as the sun was setting.. the question of whee to stay for the night was nowup for discussion.. We could sleep in our vehicles! nick suggested
 the wolves tossed in as much debris as possible, the trucks were rapidly filling up...

[Kor]

Sara radioed Deimos back.  "How much do you need?  I can reshape some rubble, or shape some dirt and rocks into what is needed then condense them into a stone like constancy or turn them into stone. & where do you need these?"

[Nick22]

dude I do not want to crowd in the mystery machin e with 15 other passengers
 Shaggy said.. " well theres no hotels l;eft in town, they were all blown up.. and we can't leave or Dragonstorm will simply takeover again' Nick pointed out
-
 freddy helped carry debris into the nearest trucks. it was hard work and he quickly worked up a lather..

[Kor]

Jason and Gallantmon noticed there were not more enemy forces where they were.  They paused to see if all the enemy forces were elementated from their area and to think what to do next.

[Serris]

"Outside the Inglorious Hotel. We're carrying a lot of debris to bring back. " Deimos radioed back. He threw a large marble column into the back of the truck.

"That's all of them," the lead driver, a massive Australian Monitor Lizard said. He climbed into the nearest truck and started the engine.

"Everyone! Get in!" Deimos shouted. He climbed into the back of the truck.

The volunteers scrambled aboard the trucks with their tools. Most of them had sat on the rubble but some of the more daring (or less cautious ones) simply clung onto the running boards of the trucks as they slowly drove through the ravaged streets.

------------------------------

It was hard work for the medical volunteers at the stadium but they had managed to treat nearly all the injured.

"Well, Shaggy, Nani, Nick, I guess we should start setting up a secondary command post here," Rime said, drinking some essential water. He turned to one of the flight troopers and ordered him to return to base.

He saluted  and shot into the sky.

[Nick22]

Fred ans Daphne climbed into the back of a truck and held on.. " So whats the plan once these detention centers are built? Fred shouted over the rumble of debris..
_ good plan..' Nani said ' this stadium has four levels, I suggest we get patrols on every level, rotating in shifts.. now this place is big, so we'll need to keep radio contact..
_ briggins prepared to turn the library back into a court room, in the morning, once the dentention center was created the first trials would begin
 Well, I think we can have theRovers do the first watch- Hunter said  looking at the others.. " anyone else care to volunteer..?
 Well the shifts will cover diferrent sections... Nick said looking at a kiosk that held a map of the stadoium. it had been knocked over and lain in front of them..

[Kor]

Sara left the hotel to fly around to see where the detention centers were being built so she could then land there and start to use her magic to shape some of the debris into structures and to also use some nearby bits of concrete, dirt stone ect, and to compress, or convert them to being as hard as stone so they had an even hardness.  

---

Sara's uncle continued to see what he could do to repair the outside of the hotel using some nearby debris and such to help in the repair if he could.

[Serris]

The flight trooper landed outside the Sang-Heili base.

He entered through the blast doors that protected the hangar and found Stripetail.

"Commander," he said, taking off his helmet. "The group has retaken the stadium they are considering setting up a forward command post."

Haresh and Setsuna stepped forward. They were dripping with sweat from making so many metal soldiers. Haresh was drinking some soda while Setsuna was enjoying some cold beer.

"We would like to accompany you," Haresh said.

---------------

The convoy of rubble trucks drove back to the fortified rear area of the hotel. Several vehicles were being repaired and several magically made buildings were storing munitions and fuel.

A SPVDF guard motioned for them to head to the front, which they did.

"Sara, this is Deimos. The rubble is at the front. The detention center will be placed at the far rear corner of the hotel's backlot as a good portion of the backlot is being used for vehicle repairs, fuel and ammunition storage. Deimos out," Deimos said into his helmet mounted radio

--------------------------

"I'll take the snipers and patrol the top," Rime said.

Zachary looked at his rifle and grenade launcher. Both were empty. "We'll need more ammo though," he said.

[Nick22]

Excellemnt. have them do so, there will be reinforcements headed there in the morning.. Stripetail replied ' he looked tired from creating metal monsters, between the three of them they had created 1000 metal soldiers from the scrap, and these were lined up anbd ready to head into battle..
- You've got a lot of rubble there Briggins said coming out to check on the convoy..

[Kor]

"Ok." Sara said.  She looked around to see what sorts of structures looked like needed to be built first.  Then she went to the rubble pile and picked out some to levitate over to the proper place where she started to shape it into the proper shape for the function it would be used for, then doing finer shaping so it was a uniform texture and condensed and hardened to be the consistency of stone, which she thought would be best for the circumstances and for it's resiliency to damage and weather effects.

[Nick22]

Well, thats tricky since our ammo supplies are back at the base" nick pointed out
 we'll have the digimon patrol the midlevels..based on rank, so agumon and gabumon get first choice..
How were we ranked? Tentomon asked
 Based on potential power. izzy said hooking up his computer. agumon and gabumon were the only ones to reach mega, then next for sher ability was patomon, who was the last to reach ultimate but made up for it in a big way. although Biyomon is third in seniority... patomon and I will pick third and 4rth..gomamon andgatomon are next, followed by tentomon and palmon.. hey i'm not the weakest of the 8 digidestined Digimon the green digimon fumed I was more like 6th1'
 It doesn't really matter  sora said " we'll rotate the shifts..

[Serris]

The flight trooper put his helmet back on extended two orange energy tethers from his wrists. "You'll have to attach yourselves to these. They're for carrying cargo but we don't have a choice," he said.

"No matter, both Setsuna and I have a mild form of energy shielding," Haresh said.

The flight trooper whipped out the tethers and they attached themselves to the two mages. He then shot into the sky with the mages attached.

In only minutes, he landed at the stadium. The two mages detached themselves from the energy tethers.

"Setsuna, we need ammo," Zachary said.

"Let's never do that again," Setsuna said.

Haresh opened a portal to the Sang-Heili base. He walked through it.

A minute later, he was followed by several technicians carrying several carts filled with ammunition - including Great Valley armaments.

A small group of Great Valley archers and slingers arrived too.

"Guess we're late to the party," a green Swimmer said. He was armed with a bow.

Ms. Swimmer was talking to Ceela. Her archers were patrolling the middle section.

[Kor]

"Looks like the fight is over.  We can head back to the hotel and see how they are getting along." Jason said.  

"Sounds good." Gallantmon said before he changed back to Guilmon and Jason and he headed to where the hotel was.  "Go back by tardis or stealth?" He asked.

"Stealth may be best, in case we need to mop up any hidden troops." Jason said.

[Nick22]

there are still Dragonstorm forces controlling much of the cu\ity .. to the north and south of here.. Nick said as he helped unload the ammo..
 Scooby dixie and Agumon headed back to the Mystery Machine.. Scooby lowered the seats to make them into a small bed,  
 Chong radioed the forces in Neptune City : I an ordering you to retake the city! You are losiing to a bunch of talking animals! You're supposed to be professionals! You are losing this war! Must I get involved personally? You have 24 hours to retake the city , or else!

[Serris]

Several Dragonstorm heavy bombers along with a massive air escort of wyverns and fighter aircraft were dispatched from Arkan AFB headed towards Neptune City. The bombers carried several tons of high explosive and incendiary weapons - each. Their goal: level the Sang-Heili base and other strongholds.

The commander of Arkan AFB radioed Chong. "Chong, we have dispatched. Our heavy bombers. They will arrive in about 8 hours. We also received word that 3,000 metal troops are heading to Neptune City.

–-------------------------

Some porters pushing carts full of rather unappetizing prepared food - mostly smoked and dried fish as well as dried fruits and vegetables as well as some hard bread - appeared through the portal.  The porters then returned to base.

"Dinner's here," Zachary shouted. He had finished reloading his weapons.

Unbeknownst to the group, a Dragonstorm MLRS system a few miles away prepared to launch a lethal volley of rockets at them.

[Nick22]

flew around the satadium, and looked at at the surrounding area.. the stadium was one of the few  buildings in the area still standing. " we're pretty out in the open " Spyro saidf through his ring.. the stadium is one of only a few things standing..
_
 we have to take our chances Dixie replied. not much we can do otherwise.. Keep an eye out and contact us if you see anything..'
_ Stripetail mewantime was  contining to create more metal monsters..  Some of the ones he had already created were starting to move out of the base on patrol, others were going though the portal to back up those at the stadium, still others were helping bulk and skull with helping him with gathering denbris, and food.
Sora took a seat next to a small fire that some of the volunteers had made..

[Nick22]

Thats more like it. Chong out " Chong said , turning off the radio and looking at a magical orb that showed Neptune city. more and more areas were turning blue on his or.b About 60% of the city was now blue as opposed to just the base a few days earlier..chong scowled. he turned to looked at his communicating crystal.. "Haresh! A report! he demanded..activating it.._ Hunter and colleen took the third floor for patrol. it was a vast area, but both of them didn't mind, as it lallowed them some time to talk.. "We'll have a lot of stories to tell the master after this? Hunter said, looking over at colleen. ' yes we sure will'; colleen said sitting down on some debris looking out over the lower levels. hunter sat down beside her and put his arm around her. colleen gazed at him with a smile, and hunter made his move, kissing her firmly on the lips. colleen felt his tongue enter her mouth and she quickly pulled away. HUnter! She scolded him, getting up and giving him a rebuffing you. We;'re on a mission here, and you're getting much too personal.. i... need to be by mysel;f for awhile' she said, her voivce catching in her throat as she hurried off.. hunter held his head in his paws as he looked at the ground..

[Kor]

Sara continued making more structures from the nearby debris and some dirt bits of road, rocks and such, still hardening and making them as resilient as stone.  

Her uncle did his best to repair the hotel, starting with the foundation, then working up to the basement, if it had one.  Before working his way upward.  First he worked on marking unsafe areas, then stabilizing areas he could, and repairing ones he could after that, taking time out to rest and drink some essential water, or other drink, or nibble on a snack.
