Mandatory Reads

[Nikita]

Raven had just got done delivering a package to the hospital and was on her way back to Jam Pony to grab some more packages. As usual, she was cranky at the idea of all the sectors she had to ride through in order to get back to work just to set off all over again. Damn this job. She needed a new one like pronto but with her attitude it wasn't easy finding a job where the boss would tolerate her. Normal was one of the few that would. He did put up with Max and Sketchy with his stupidity then there was Rocky and Alec who were of course nothing but cocky. But cocky was easier to put up with then being a total bitch.

{Sorry it's not longer, couldn't think of what to write.}

[Ames White]

((Hope this is ok, figure it makes more sense for Ames to not be on the 'grab' and to find out back at base when he goes into see X5-452 that its not her.))

Unbeknown to Raven she was under surveillance by some of those under the control of Ames White. Otto was leading this job because White had had to go to a meeting with Washington's Senator to appraise him of how things were going on the Transgenic containment front.

Otto was sitting in the passenger seat of a nondescript car as he watched the woman on the bike and smiled to himself, he thought he was watching X5-452, who went by the name of Max, that she had just changed her hair style. Neither he nor the five people on his team, four men and one women had thought of the possibility of a clone also choosing to work at Jam Pony.

Otto nodded at the man in the drivers seat, then picked up his radio. "We take her at the checkpoint, use the tranquillizer darts as fast as you can, we do not want to loose this one."

From their various positions the others started to move in, the gambit of setting up fake parcel drops looked like it was going to pay off with the jackpot finally capturing X5-452.

Unknown to Raven as she peddled on she was being watched by White's men, being annoyingly mistaken for Max. It happened to her often which is why she kept her hair a certain way. The way Max used to wear it before she grew it out then there was her violet eyes but that couldn't be noticed from afar. Not to mention if they thought she was Max they wouldn't be looking directly at her eyes anyway especially considering both her and Max had dark eyes. You kind of had to look closely to see the difference in color.

She came to a sudden stop when she found herself being faced with people in uniform, her guess already being they worked for White. "What the hell do you guys want now? Haven't you been harassing enough of the transgenics at Jam Pony?" She asked, sounding rather aggravated. "So unless you got a reason to block my path I suggest you move the hell away so I can continue my day." She snapped.

[Ames White]

Otto and his driver pulled in behind the young woman as she berated the others on his team, who were wearing uniforms today rather than plain clothes. That was one of the things Otto new White was going to talk to the Senator about, having to do the odd mission with teams in uniforms just to show that they were dealing with the Transgenic situation. It was a matter where he totally agreed with White, them in plain clothes meant they were harder to spot so had some more advantage.

He stopped thinking on that as he got out of his car, his driver doing the same. Weapons drawn and aimed at her he spoke. "Don't make any sudden moves..." He ordered, as he signalled with his empty hand for one of those in uniform to tranquillize her, they did not have the time to play about.

[Nikita]

She took a second to look behind herself to see the vehicle pull up behind her, blocking her path. She was blocked on both ends now. Cornered with no escape. Weapons drawn full of tranquilizers pointed directly at her. "You gotta be shitting me." She muttered to herself, knowing it was either fight or go quietly. She wasn't one for cooperating either so it looks like fight it was.

Without second thought she did a hand-stand like move over the handle bars of her bike, taking it with her and in one quick movement flinging it at the people in front of her. As one of the others went to shoot at her she dodged the shot which lead to another one of the men receiving the tranquilizer for her. She smirked at that before zig-zagging in front of Otto then flipping over his head to land on the hood of his vehicle then off she began to run.

[Ames White]

As one of his men went to help their fallen comrade Otto frowned and looked worried, Ames would kill him after he read the report if he did not capture 452. He did not know just why his boss hated her so much, he could only assume it was what she did to him at the Jam Pony seige, but his anomosity went back further than that, so it must be because she had escaped early into their mission of capturing Transgenics.

He shrugged off thinking about that again as he reached for his radio, he was pleased he had listened to White enough to think to set up other teams at various points. "Jenkins she's heading your way, she's on foot and running you can't miss her, its 452..."

From over the radio crackled a reply. "I saw it all through my scope, I'll have a bead on her any second now..." The man squeezed the trigger of his tranquillizer rifle from his perch on a roof and the dart raced for the running female...

[Nikita]

Raven kept running, smiling to herself that she heard no one chasing after her. Maybe they knew better then to mess with her after the act she just pulled off. That only made her smile widen. Suddenly she didn't feel so cocky anymore when she felt something sharp hit her in the side of the neck. She immediately stopped running to pull out the dart.

Looking it over she swore under her breath as she collapsed to her knees, beginning to feel dizzy. "Son of a bitch." She murmured as things began to become blurry. She didn't wish to give up though. She had to at least get far enough from here until the side effects of the tranquilizer wore off.

Staggering to her feet, she took one step then fell over again, her eyes wandering around aimlessly as she started muttering nonsense. She was doomed.

[Ames White]

Otto was heading after 452 as fast as he could, other of his team in front of him. He had his radio in his hand so he could hear from his sniper the news he hoped to hear, that 452 was down, tranquillised.

Running still and hoping that he would soon get the news he wanted he smiled as his agent's voice suddenly crackled over the radio.

"Target down, you're almost upon her..." The sniper stated in a somewhat smug tone.

Before Otto could speak a shout came from the first of his people who had arrived in sight of the downed 452.

"NSA, keep back!" The agent shouted to the people who were starting to gather, gun drawn as he moved to check that the Transgenic was really down and out of it and not just playing possum.

The bystanders deep keep back as more agents appeared, including Otto bringing up the rear.

"Report." Otto ordered.

"She's unconscious..."

Otto smiled a bit and held his radio to his lips once more. "Bring the van to..."

---

A while later and they were back at the latest 'NSA' holding site. Otto was busy doing the paperwork involved with a capture, their prisoner was in the cell. He was waiting for Ames White to return from his meeting.

((Hope that works for you.))

Raven was still struggling to keep awake as she heard the sound of faint footsteps hurrying towards her but before she could see who it was she had fallen unconscious. She hadn't known how long she was out before she found herself waking in a holding cell laying on the floor. She was still drowsy from the tranquilizer but tried pushing herself up on her side, looking around. She cursed under her breath realizing she'd been caught. She was officially screwed.

{Yeah it does I'm just sorry my reply is so short.}
