SO I HEARD YOU LIKE DEETS... [THE FOX AND THE POUND]

Plot Summary

Fox McCloud is caught buying illegal parts for his Arwing. What would normally be a fine and a slap on the wrist, turns into an opportunity for a smear campaign against the refugees courtesy of the Purists. Initial attempts at having his name cleared by Lady Une are denied, so she gets in touch with Archangel (Garrus) to see if something can be done. Outraged by this injustice, Garrus gets in touch with the rest of the Normandy Crew (Shepard, Legion, Mordin, Samara and Kasumi), Wolf, Bill, and Ezio to see if they can break him out of his prison. Before they can launch their plan, however, they found out (through another video/commercial leaked on the network) that Fox has actually been moved to a maximum security pound due to noncompliance to his interrogation.

Also, because he's not people.

Unfortunately, this also puts a time limit to their rescue attempt since Fox is slated to be 'put down' within the next couple of days. Unable to waste anymore resources on planning, the group finally comes to a decision: they're going to split up into three separate teams, each with a different role to play in getting Fox out of the pound. Ezio, two of his assassins (Cass and Xigbar) and Samara will provide a distraction for the in house guards. Meanwhile, the infiltration team made up of Legion and Kasumi will cut off the defense team while also diverting all security alarms to different parts of the ship so no reinforcements can arrive. As the two other teams work to make sure the mission goes off without a hitch, the extraction team made up of Garrus, Shepard, Wolf and Bill will storm the pound with the intention of breaking Fox free and causing a little bit of havoc. Mordin is waiting outside in a commandeered ambulance.

Upon entering said pound, the distraction team is faced with a small army of dalek-like robots with almost impenetrable armor, and then an army of robot guard dogs. All of these defense mechanisms are controlled by the head of security who goes by the name Gonerd "Cheeto" Ferguson, a three ton alien with ten pairs of arms, who lives strictly on a diet of rice krispie treats, cake and, like his name suggests, cheetos. He's also a virtual gaming master. Because of his 'niche' skills, Gonerd is able to skillfully control the robots against the distraction team.

That is, until his gaming prowess is challenged by Legion.

Part of Legion's goal in destroying the defense system means that it has to beat Gonerd at his own game, which it is able to do fairly easily. The shock and anger at the loss pushes Gonerd into a fit of ragequit and he froths himself into a coma, effectively shutting down the robots since they have nobody controlling them. Unfortunately, during this fight Legion had to link itself up to the computer systems which hacked it as a failsafe. Although Legion is able to stop this attempt, some data, specifically the names and faces of Team Normandy is leaked to the Purists.

While all that is going on, the extraction team is going to blast through the halls, incapacitating any stray scientist that may cross their path. No lethal means will be used, but a lot of angry headbutting will occur. Eventually, they'll find Fox and bust him out of there, carrying him over to the awaiting ambulance. Whether or not they meet Gonerd along the way is still up in the air, but not something to worry about just yet.

Everybody meets up at a rendezvous point, people chew out Fox, and Lady Une will eventually manage to get his name wiped off the records. Until then, he's in hiding.

Puppies and kitties also flood the Thor.

[PRIVATE LOG]

Who: A horrible turian and That one commander
What: Sparring!
When: Sometime after the first visit to Konami VI
Where: One of Thor's many gyms
Warnings: Copious amounts of whoop-ass.

[See Garrus]

[See Garrus pace]

[See Garrus pace because he's about to get into a sparring match with his former commanding officer and therefore get the everloving crap beaten out of him]

[Still, he's set up in his normal civilian wear, turian clothing is always durable enough for a fight no matter the occassion, and waiting for Shepard to appear. Who knows? Maybe this wouldn't be so bad.
