#36300270166 06/27/2007 19:40:08 [7.3.4] He took the bullet meant for me - Recursion - 6/26/07


Well, my goodness. They almost got me with that door trick, only the Kid jumped in the way when he heard me cry out. It took guts to do that, knowing what must have been on that bullet, and I don't know if there's more than a handful of people around who could have moved fast enough. A little rest, and maybe a few more of my cookies, and I'm sure he'll be just fine.

I'd like to thank those brave people in Zion who protected me for so long, and everyone in E Pluribus Neo who insisted on helping, too, especially that group with me there at the end: the Kid, Atratus, Votum, Variel, RazuacheV2, and 0221kintupS; oh, and then Roukan, who with others outside stopped the commando from getting away, and who puts cookies away like a champ.

So, here I am; looks like I'll be hanging around at least a little while longer. It's good to be home again.

heh

seemed a little anticlimatic, but better than losing another main movie character.

i'm wondering if that kill code inside him will do anything?

It's cooler to catch a bullet with your teeth, but that worked just as effectively. Well done, Michael.

Excellent work by all involved! I continue to be impressed with the organization of E Pluribus Neo as an organization.

Amazing job everyone, kudos to Kid and the Security Detail for their quick work in protecting Oracle and chasing the Commando into a waiting group of EPN Operatives. I'd also like to say to my FirstMate Votum, that I've never been more proud of you.Tranque getting owned by the Oracle FTW. SMILEY

Sooo...Did you guys get anything for saving her? After all, she is the Oracle!

 No?

Didn't think so.

#36300270211 06/27/2007 20:29:16 Re:[7.3.4] He took the bullet meant for me - Recursion - 6/26/07

Well theres the benifit of haveing her around awhile longer. Then the team that was there with her got a cookie each. Oh, and Roukan got 12 for getting the final shot on the commando so =P

The Security Detail got Cookies, Roukan got a Translocation Program and 12 Cookies for the kill shot on the Elite Commmando.

((Fun event, and it was nice to see some new faces getting key roles instead of the usual suspects.))

Say what you will about him, The Kid has got some guts.  That sort of snap judgment and bravery under fire is very commendable.

#36300270292 06/27/2007 22:52:25 Re:[7.3.4] He took the bullet meant for me - Recursion - 6/26/07
So, The Kid took the initial bullet, all very well and good, but did anyone stay and protect the Oracle whilst everyone else was chasing the Commando?
You know, in case The Merovingian got his act together and come up with a half decent plan, and sent a diversionary Commando first.
#36300270294 06/27/2007 23:01:52 Re:[7.3.4] He took the bullet meant for me - Recursion - 6/26/07
That was a pretty good, exciting event. And aww, now Machinists have less of a reason to hate the Kid.

And lol, I caught Rarebit after he took the subway away just before he popped into admin invisibility.

Yes, the original Security Detail stayed with her. Votum wanted me to post these two pics of the after party:

Ah well we can always make more commandos!

Excellent.
To the Merovingian and Merv Operatives, you'll have to come up with some better ideas if you want to be rid of the Oracle!

I must say, even though I may not like them and their methods, EPN has managed to save an essential program integral to the smooth running of the Matrix.

The General has paid for his failure, and paid dearly, I can assure you of that.

The Oracle's ability's have proven to be totally wasted on her, the victim here is each and every one of us as a vital resource continues to go nowhere and do nothing.

Not to mention the glue that's holding the truce together. Both of which are things most machinists would tell you that EPN hates, last I checked.

I've looked over this thread, and the one that was linked and...

I can't beleive people are giving The Kid and EPN crap fro SAVING the Oracle.

I think Madbent had the right idea, I'm just glad the Oracle is OK.

Of course, I also like that it was my own fearless leader that saved her.

Hmm, well EPN and Zion do have a lot in common... it seems both their leaders have a tendency on getting shot.

Just like Machine and Cyphterite leaders have a tendency for lying to people and getting douped at the same time.
