Swathing & Torlikoff's Fragment Collectors: ACT ONE

[PsychoWarper]

"This vest is definitely a suicide vest" I say as I again inspect the room while thinking ''Why do I have to do stuff... I just wanna sleep''.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"How Long do you think the external lights on the side of a camera will hold without a direct input?, if it can hold on long enough, we could use the camera as a external light source to see the rest of what's written on the vest, it's going to be hard for us to make a plan with such little lighting"

 

[Torlikoff]

[There's still something that you guys haven't inspected yet.]

 

[PsychoWarper]

"Mabye but im sure that wont make the ones who kidnapped us happy"

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"I have a way to take...." I noticed a red button

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"what is this" i point towards the button

 

[PsychoWarper]

"How should I know... you look at it, im gonna see if I cant figure anything else out about this vest" I say back.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"Here" I hand over the broken doorknob to the man. "use this to see if you can take out those camera's, to s get us some light"

 

[PsychoWarper]

[Give it to Justin]

 

[Torlikoff]

[You guys should probably introduce yourselves. Names make this easier.]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I walk over to the button and inspect it "Well this would be far too obvious... I doubt our captures would make it so easy..hmmm at the same time however...if they wanted to kill us they could have done so already"

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"so whats your name" i say to the man

 

[PsychoWarper]

"Me... Jackson and you?" I say lazily and unenthusiastically.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"Z" I respond in a stern voice "and you"I look over to the man named Justin

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

"It's Justin..."

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"Hmm Jackson do you mind sharing your vest with the door?"

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"I have a theory I want to test, and id like to avoid...roadblocks " so Justin if I may ask "How good are you at throwing things"

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

"I dunno...I guess I'm alright at it"

 

[PsychoWarper]

[Do you mean bring the vest iver to the door?]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

I point towards the doorknob in Jason's hand that was given to him by Jackson earlier. "Perhaps you should play one-sided dodge ball with them" my head motioning towards the camera's

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

[@Pshyco yes]

 

[PsychoWarper]

I gently pick up the vest and bring it to Z ''Of course I have to pick up the explosive thing''

 

[Torlikoff]

The water is up to your feet at this point. The pipes are submerged.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"I mean go put it at the foot of the door," I say as I point to the door

 

[Torlikoff]

[I thought the 40 kilograms bit would dissuade you from this idea, but you're doing it anyway. Weird.]

 

[PsychoWarper]

I gently place it in front of the dorr and back away.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"I suggest you stand far away as possible"

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

"Alright then..." I say as I throw the doorknob

 

[Torlikoff]

The camera falls down with little ressistance. You see that no wires are heading to it and it continues to function.

[You guys do know how big an explosion 40 kilos of TNT is, right?]

 

[PsychoWarper]

[When you thought that was the weight of the vest not the explosive charge for some reason]

"You know I think this room is to small and doesnt have the cover for us the explode that in here" I say as I gesture towards the vest.

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

"You told me earlier Jackson that the jacket was labeled with 40 or so kilograms...however clothing doesn't get labeled with weight and anything of more obscure substance is normally weighed in grams, also they are not labeled onto anything.. so if my suspicion is correct.. the kilograms represent the amount of explosive energy that is linked with that vest through TNT or something similar...and this button detonates it..however I could be wrong and it might be full of dozens of kilograms of baking powder..but that wouldn't be as effective now would it."

I sigh

"There's also a chance that we cant cover the distance..and we might die a horrible death..perhaps you or Justin can inspect the vest and remove some of the speculated explosive substance" i suggest

 

[JustSomeWeirdo]

"What....it's working fine?" I say to myself as I notice the camera isn't broken.

 

[Torlikoff]

[You remeber that I said there was a detonator and a pull cord on the vest, right?]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

[Maybe]

 

[SwathingDegenera777]

[Are yall gonna pull it, Dad made me go on a run with him and Torl had to take over, from the explosion onwards I'll be the Game Master]

 

[Shadowbokunohero]

[Looking around the room, you see that a large metallic door lies at the corner, and a table is in the center of the room. Several cameras watch you from the ceiling that's too high for you to reach. A vest covered in explosives is on the table, along with what appears to be a button. You see pipes spilling out water on the ground. ]

 

[Torlikoff]

Further inspection turns up what appears to be a pull cord and a remote.
There is other text but it is impossible to make out in the current light.

 

[PsychoWarper]

[Use the camera light]

 

[Torlikoff]

[Use the camera light]

[I thought you guys were going to anyway.]

 

[PsychoWarper]

[I was just suggesting it]
