Forum Chat Bar & Grill

[AgentZero]

Agent Zero strolls into the bar and shakes his head at the sight of Renegade packing Zero's doppelganger full of dry ice.

"Blimey. Ah well, serves me right for using SE2's AI code for my 'twin'. Be interesting to see how all that dry ice reacts with it's power suppl-"

BOOOM!!!!

"Erm, barkeep? Add that five square metres of floor to my tab, would you?"

David, protected from the blast by his forcefield now finds himself sitting on a sort of pedastel in the middle of a rather large crater. Looking over at Agent Zero, he mouths a silent, "WTF?"[i] Agent Zero shrugs, then catching sight of David's bodyguard, suddenly draws his blasters and opens fire! The entire cantina is soon sizzling with lethal energy as the two professional killers bound about the room, trading blots of energy as they flick from place to place almost too fast for the (human) eye to keep track. Glasses, bottles, kegs, chairs and tables explode like demented fireworks, showering the other patrons with debries. Fortunately, the dueling duo's weapons rely on a form of quantum -rather than thermal- energy, and this alone keeps the cantina from errupting into a blazing inferno as the two wage their deadly game. In fact, the only sound to be heard, apart from weapons fire, and the occasional 'Eep!' from David is the sound of Renegade trying to free his head from the toilet he managed to land in.

Suddenly, the two cross paths and come to an abrupt stop in the middle of the cantina floor, sweating and panting, with guns at each other's temples, in a tense Mexican standoff.
A slow smile creeps across Agent Zero's face.[i]

"Now I know what you're thinking. Did he fire 600kilowatts or only 500? Well the question you gotta ask yourself is, Do you feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?

[Renegade 13]

As Renegade struggles in vain to free his head from the (thankfully new, and thusfar unused) toilet, he hears the sounds of violent fighting in the background. Pulling his head from the opening of the toilet with a dull "pop" sound, he pokes his wet hair until it stands back in its customary inch-and-a-half long spikes. Walking confidantly over to Agent Zero and his Mexican standoff, he falls into the 5 square meter hole. Damn. Crawling out of the hole, Renegade slips up behind David's bodyguard, and cracks her on the head with a rubber mallet (hey, she's the more dangerous one!) As she falls into a crumpled heap on the floor, Renegade throws the mallet in a movement faster than was thought humanly possible. It hits Agent Zero square between the eyes, and knocks him out cold.

"Now for the interesting part....which of those two will wake up first??"

Strolling over to where Raging Deadstar, David and Mac are sitting, Renegade grabs a stool and sits down with the trio, making it a quartet. As they eye him suspiciously, he says,

"Hey, I'm done with the whole violence thing. At least with you guys. Still not sure about Agent Zero...."

[David E. Gervais]

hmmm,.. now that we are a quartet, we can start a 'Curling' Team.. I'll be the Skip. What positions do you want?

Cheers!

[General Woundwort]

"Curling, Dave?!?"

Woundwort has horrid flashbacks to the coverage of curling at the last two Winter Olympics.

[AgentZero]

[i]Agent Zero smiles as he perches in the rafters above Renegade. From the looks of that hammer blow, his SE3-AI doppelganger is now irreperably damaged as well. Zero curses silently. This means he's down to only his SE4-AI doppelganger (the SE1 version being a gibbering idiot kept locked in the AZ's basement). There is of course the SE5-AI version, but Zero shudders to think of the kind of destruction such a creature would inflict upon the world, let alone the cantina. Plus, releasing it now would be a violation of the sacred NDA, and would certainly incur the wrath of a vengeful Aaron. And if it came to that, it was extremely unlikely this corner of the universe would survive. Another course of action will be required to deal with Renegade.

The shadows whisper, and Agent Zero is gone...

[David E. Gervais]

David walks in then out for the sole purpose of saving this fine thread from the dreaded 'Page 2'.

Cheers!

[AgentZero]

Agent Zero does the same thing, easily avoiding being spotted by Renegade who is too busy poking AZ's doppleganger, hoping it'll wake up and save him the hassle of a murder trial.

[Renegade 13]

"Quick! Bring out the defibrilator! Give me the paddles."

ZAP! ZAP!

AZ's doppelganger flops like a boned fish on the floor of the cantina.

"He's got a pulse! Now lets just hope that no one notices that he'll just be a vegetable for the rest of his life..."

Having finished all the currently pressing work, Renegade melts back into the shadows, with only his ubiquitous glowing eyes revealing his presence. A deep, resonating voice echoes from the shadows around Renegade...

"Tread lightly Agent Zero, you will yet meet your fate."

[General Woundwort]

While the rest of the patrons enjoy playing "ER", Woundwort continues in the Taz tradition of polishing the bar, when suddenly, Sancho comes running breathlessly (metaphorically speaking, he is after all a robot) up to him.

"Boss! Boss! We've got... competition!!!"

"What!?!" Woundwort punches a few buttons on his wrist computer, and a holographic image of the Won Ton Violence Take Out Hut shimmmers into being on the counterrop.

"Hmmm... catchy name. I see they've got customers, too. Tell me, Roboboy, has anyone ever dared set up a competitive restaurant in the Boss's territory?"

"I... I don't know."

"Do an archive search. Find out. Meanwhile, keep this place under surveilance. If Growltigger finds out about it... things could get very interesting in this sector of space."

Sancho runs off to talk to the forum computer, while Woundwort lights up a Rocky Patel '92, and eyes the holographic image of Won Ton's with an evil gleam in his eye.
