I can only assume that Moten's spoken Russian won't past muster with the FSB agents.

Heh. Nope.

You'd be speaking the Russian equivalent of Engrish.

Wait, I wasn't necesarily trying to pull the cords out, thought that's a secondary objective. I was trying to pull the guy holding the stungun over to me so that I would be harder to shoot safely.

You failed to pull the cords out, so I gave you the cutting sequence as a consolation.

I can change it a bit, but the opposing STR checks pretty much cancelled eachother out.

Ah, I see. I just wasn't sure you read me right. No probalo.

It was just a case of you rolling not-so-good and your opponent rolling equally crappy. It was essentially a non-event, but since you didn't completely fail, I gave you some leeway as to what happened.

I'll take akimbo ginsu action for a thousand, Alex. I'll stop cutting when they cry uncle.

This could be the beginning of a wonderful friendship...

That bitch got my face? I'm going to get his face.

I'm going to feint towards a crotch strike on the nose guy, and try and break his nose up into his face.

This will not end well.

On a scale from one to ten, ow.

Sneaky way for a partial reunion, I'd say.

By god, I'll have all of you talking to eachother without wireless technology by the end of this chapter.

Notes

20 - Number of Red Army soldiers disembarking their transports at the RR crossing. Add another twenty SMP policemen to that number for a total strength of area enforcement.

4 - Number of injured, maimed, dying people currently residing in Ayumi/Carla's cabin. Georgi is bleeding like a stuck pig and his partner, Pavlov, is currently doing his best impression of Steve Buscemi from Fargo.

24/7 - Approximate amount of time the Chief Inspector of the SMP spends drinking. His breath is flammable, bordering on hazardous.

25 - Number of km's from Novosibirsk.

30 - Rounds in a full MP5 mag...hey, 10 extra!

On that note, there may be a decrease in my posting frequency (in case you haven't noticed it in They Are Many yet). I've got a major research paper coming due, and it's draining my creative juices. Towards the end of the week hopefully I'll pick up again.

If we stall long enough for the inevitable Hell breaking loose, we can slip away without our new FSB covers being blown.

I'll let Art take that one.

C'mon, what's the fun in that?

I need to hear from Punkey and IP before continuing the crossroads scene.

Where are Artis & Co. heading?

Er...to Peter's place? Artis can drive Anatoli to a doctor with the COBRA while Peter starts repairs on the rig. (Go go Mechanics skill!)
