Agent Jones

[jayte]

Jayte marched into the B&G, his face covered in dirt, hair sticking up at odd angles. He wore an expression of grim determination on his face. Bringing his wrist up to his mouth, Jayte spoke, reavealing the gravity of the situation at hand. "Command center this is agent Jones. I have succesfully appre-appre...I have caught the bad guy. I'm lookin' for his bomb but don't worry...as long as I'm on the case, the world is in no danger." he brought his wrist down and began searching under tables with the expert eye of a child involved in a game. After several minutes Jayte looked up, taking in all who sat in the bar, hoping to find someone willing to get involved in the game.

[Jhyx]

"Yoink!"

The Squib who'd been tinkering with a broken commlink suddenly found it gone, disappeared from his hands, and he let a small gasp as he watched a small furred creature jump off with it.

"I found it I found it!!!!!" Jhyx yelled, now bounding his way to where the boy was. In his paws he had the commlink he'd expertly grabbed from the unsuspecting squib; the very bomb Agent Jones was no doubt looking for.

Jhyx halted in front of the boy, making a quick salute. "Agent Jones, I'm Agent Riggs. I believe I've got the bomb. Good job on getting the culprit. What would you recommend our next course of action to be?"

[jayte]

Jayte, delighted to have someone participating with such enthusiasm, returned the salute with military precision. "Glad to see you Agent Riggs. I'm even more glad to see you have the bomb. This is a tricky situation. We don't know who's on our side. Anyone in this room could be working for Doctor...Doctor..." Jayte searched for an especially evil name for the villain, "Doctor Claw! We have to figure out how the bomb works and then take it apart to save the world! But be careful! Doctor Claw always has a backup plan."

[Jhyx]

Careful lest he set the bomb off, Jhyx held the small contraption in both paws as he jumped atop a table to give the interior of the bar a stern looking over. "I agree, Agent Jones. I've delt with Doctor Claw and his cronies many times before; he's a devious and cunning adversary. We'll have to watch our backs."

Jhyx scanned the bar once more, looking to see if he could spot Cirr. "I've got a partner somewhere around here," he said to Jayte, his voice solemn and no-nonsense, "His name's Murtaugh. He'll be able to help us diffuse this bomb and root out Doctor Claw's evil henchmen."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Meanwhile, Cirrsseeto sat unmoving at a nearby table, his head propped up on its side by his thick forearms as he took a contented nap. The remains of his womp rat lunch had been discreetly carried away by the cleaning droid, who preferred not to disturb the slumbering feline.

[Jhyx]

Jhyx spotted Cirr at a table not too far off, and tucking the 'bomb' under one arm, he table-hopped his way to the sleeping Cizerack, landing on the table in front of his big friend. Carefully setting the 'bomb' on the table, he bounded lightly up onto Cirr's shoulder and crouched down so that he was close to the cat man's ear.

"Agent Murtaugh," he whispered tersely, "Wake up. It's me, Agent Riggs. We've got a situation brewing here, and it's gonna take both of us to help Agent Jones find and capture Doctor Claw."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr remained asleep, though his ear twitched, slapping Jhyx across the back of the head

[Jhyx]

Surprise crossed the little Isnik's face as Cirr's ear slapped him in the back of the head with an ear, and he jerked back. His own ears twitching, he positioned himself more solidly on the broad shoulder, staring hard at the slumbering cat's face before deciding on his next course of action.

His eyes brightened, and crouching down low, he launched himself straight up in the air. Coming down hard right in front of Cirr's nose, he pointed dramatically at the front door.

"OH MY GOD IT'S THE ELEPHANT MAN!!!!!!!"

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Wrrraaaa!!!

Cirr bolted up, eyes wide as he fell back in his seat, grabbing Jhyx as he fell down

[Jhyx]

His plan having somewhat backfired, Jhyx threw his arms up and made to bolt out of the way, but Cirr's large hand grabbed him before he could escape.

"Whooooaaaaaah!" One moment he was on the table, and the next, he wasn't. As Cirr fell backwards, taking Jhyx with him as he went, the Isnik flailed about crazily. The bar seemed to blur all around him, but thankfully stopped when Cirrs landed heavily on the floor. Jhyx hit the Cizerack's chest with a squeak, and lying flat on his back, he stared at the ceiling for a few moments before standing on slightly shaking legs.

Dusting himself off, Jhyx perched atop Cirr's chest and craned his head to look his friend in the face. "Are you awake?"

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr blinked a few times, blearily, sighing a little.

jI am now...

[jayte]

Jayte trotted over to Jhyx and Cirrsseeto. He glanced at Jhyx before turning to the feline on the floor. "Agent Murtaugh? I'm Agent Jones. Nice to have you aboard."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr bore a classic, clueless expression

Huh?

[jayte]

Jayte smacked his forehead.

"Doh! I forgot! I have to give the safety sign." he pulled out a scrap of paper from his pocket. It was covered in scribbles, apparently meant to be cursive writing, a skill the boy had yet to master.

"See," Jayte pointed to a red squiggly line," It says right here that I'm an Agent an' that I work for the same people you do. Don't worry Agent Murtaugh, I'm on your side. It's Doctor Claw we have to worry about."

[Jhyx]

"Come on, Murtaugh, snap out of it," Jhyx said, lightly slapping at Cirr's ear. "Agent Jones is gonna help us finally put Doctor Claw away for good. That menace has been loose for far too long."

Jhyx gave Jayte a resolute nod, affirming his statement and trying to give it that much more weight.

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Doctorrr...Claw?

Cirr offhandedly extended his own claws, then realizing that he wasn't the one they were talking about, sheathed them. He scratched his head as he stood up.

What do we do?

[jayte]

Jayte looked at him blankly. Slowly realization of the situation spread across his face.

"Oh I see! Headquarters didn't brief you! That's okay...it's fairly easy. All we gotta do is find Doctor Claw an' take him into custody...an' then we gotta get his henchmen."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr smiled

Okajy!

...and then his ears drooped

Wherrre'sss headquarrrterrrsss?

[Jhyx]

Jhyx hopped from Cirr's chest and onto the table, pointing discreetly to the door behind the bar that lead to the back storeroom. "Back there, but make sure you don't tell anyone; we need to be careful of Doctor Claw's agents." The little Isnik's eyes narrowed slightly, and he cast a few glances to either side of him, lowering his voice, "They're everywhere, we have to be extremely careful."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr's blue eyes widened significantly, as he took several furtive glances at the patrons around him.

OOC: Quality. <img src=http://www.ezboard.com/image/emoticons_classic/laugh.gif ALT=":lol">

[jayte]

Jayte lowered his voice to a whisper.

"First we gotta make sure the bomb is off." He looked at Cirr solemnly. "Agent Riggs said you would be able to help with that. Then we gotta figure out who's working with Doctor Claw. It's hard 'cause most of the time they wear disguises!"

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Okajy...

Cirr smiled nervously, bounding up to his feet. He paused, and looked down.

...what jif the bomb'sss not off?

[jayte]

"Then it blows up an' everyone in the world dies." Jayte explained with a serious face. Realizing this probably wasn't the most comfortable motivation, he tried to lesson the gravity of the situation.

"But I'm pretty sure you can do it!"

[Jhyx]

Jhyx nodded solemnly. "He's right, Agent Murtaugh. We need to be careful when diffusing the bomb." Reaching behind him, the little creature grasped the 'bomb', and carefully held it out to Cirr.

"Ok, Agent Murtaugh, time to work you magic."

[Cirrsseeto Raurrssatta]

Cirr cowered away from the device, placing his hands over his face as his ears lowered

Noo!! jI don't wanna djie!

[jayte]

Jayte sighed, exasperated.

"C'mon Agent Murtaugh! The first rule of bein' an Agent is you can't be a'scared! Geez....it's only a little bomb...the last one I saw was prolly bigger than you."

[Jhyx]

"Yes yes, come one Agent Murtaugh. You've dealt with bigger problems than this in the past. Remember the deadly seed virus from Sambanaco? We stopped Jubha the Killer Calzone from releasing it and killing all the peaceloving inhabitants of Sambanaco."

Jhyx jumped closer to Cirr, still holding the 'bomb' out with his paws.

[jayte]

Jayte was impressed. "Wow! That was you guys? Everbody knows about that story! You guys are like super-heroes!" His face shone with admiration. Just think...he was working with the Agent Riggs and Agent Murtaugh!

[The Lounge Lizard]

OOC: Just to check, what am I using as "the bomb"?

[Jhyx]

It's a small busted-up comm unit I stole from a squib

[Amalia Azalin]

One Jedi had taken great interest in watching the game as it progressed, observing quietly from a near by table, just near the parties involved that were playing the game.

The Jedi Master smiled from time to time, taking great interest in Jayte in particular. If there was one thing Amalia admired in Jayte, it was his imagination. His imagination was just one of the things that had made Amalia take interest in him.

She continued to watch on as a few more joined in on the game, adding their own creativity into the game at hand. She hadn't been spotted by Jayte yet, or either of those participating.
