50th Bounty [video/action]

[ruthless_hunter]

This is fragging nuts! They're like crazier versions of 'cons, only with stupider designs.

[He hears the distinctive "EXTERMINATE", and kicks it before driving off.]

Y'all know my policy on rescues by now.

[Private to Charlie McGee.]

I got somethin' jurry rigged for ya', Charlie. Didn't have much time to build it and had to scrounge for supplies small enough, but should help.

[Don't mind the small voice, Lockdown. It's been a very rough day.] Okay. I'm at my apartment. Tried to get to you earlier but I got pinned down and...

[Nope. Not talking about losing Ed.] I'll meet you somewhere.

[ruthless_hunter]

Try to meet me near the hospital ASAP.

Be there soon.

[She'll be there in twenty. It's kind of a pain in the ass, sneaking around these things but here she is. Looking pissed.] Hi.

[He waits around as patiently as he can, sitting around in stealth mode. When Charlie approaches he uncloaks and makes his avatar appear.]

Hey. Got it right here.

[He opens his trunk so the avatar can pull out a long metal weapon that's about the length of a grown man's forearm. The thing is slapped together from some metal rods, rubber, wires and two large battery packs, and made it so it can either be carried like a club or bazooka.]

Holy shit. [Lockdown=most favorite City resident at the moment.] How's it work?

action;

[ruthless_hunter]

Not my best work, but it should do the job. The handle has a trigger that makes it give jolts of electricity from the tip. [He points to the metal forks on the business end, then demonstrates on a nearby concrete wall.] It doesn't outright kill these fraggers, but they don't like it either.

[He holds it out for her to take.]

Just make sure to watch the recoil. Also, did the best I could to make heat sinks, but the business end still gets super hot after use.

[charring]

I'll use it sparingly, then. If it's not my heat, it can hurt me. [She's sure he knew that much about her. There's a rumbling humming sound and a lone Dalek rounds the corner just as Charlie takes the weapon from Lockdown.]

A test run. Perfect.

[She aims...fires...and the thing gets hit right on the eyestalk. Lockdown was right. They really don't like this thing, if the way it's twitching and yelling and sparking is any indication. Charlie smiles, looking less stressed and she whispers something about 'that was for ed' before looking at Lockdown again.] You gonna take care of it? Might as well. Fire can't. And thank you for this, by the way.

action;

[ruthless_hunter]

[He can't help but smirk at the demonstration.]

You betcha.

[The avatar vanishes as he transforms and finishes the thing off with his chainsaw, slicing vertically. He kneels down to look at Charlie.]

It's on the house.

action;

[charring]

[She grins up at him, first real grin this girl's had on her face all day.] You're the best.

[Weapon in hand, she gives him a small wave and runs off. There are a few faint zap/shriek sounds from her direction but she's fine. It's the Daleks having a bad day, now.]

action;

[ruthless_hunter]

[He watches her go off, then transforms and heads off. Time to go kick ass and profit in times of crisis!]
