Convoy V: Autobots, ROLL OUT!

[Penguinator]

Okay, Night time? Good.

CRAAASHEEEER! I SWEAR I WILL DISMANTLE YOU! WITH MY BARE HANDS! ...*cough*

[Lex-Kat]

Night 5

SCREEEEEEEEEE!! PUFF! COFF! COFF! BBBBRRRRRNNNNNN! SPUTTER! COFF! GASP!

Erik slammed the door on his "new" Corvette, and glared at it. Then he kicked the door for good measure, stubbing his foot and hopping around yelling at the world.

He then noticed the smoke pouring out of the engine. He quickly opened the hood as if there was something he could do about it. But all he got was a coughing fit as dark smoke filled his lungs.

Deciding the best thing to do was to call a wrecker to take the car and himself back to the dealership, Erik opens his cell phone to find that he'd found the one place where Verizon didn't have any service. Hear me now, my backside! he says, closing his phone.

Defeated, he turned to walk back to the city. It would be a long, tiring walk. What's next? he yelled to the sky gods.

And he was answered as a giant metal foot stamped down on the puny human, squishing him like a bug. Dirge giggled as he whiped his foot off in a nearby sand dune.

Day 6 Begins

[Qwaz]

Banjo1985 unless bill has something more substantial.

[TigerFang]

TBFProgrammer on a hunch.

[The Bushranger]

Rogue Nine, I have reason to suspect your propulsion system is only good for high speeds. Let's test that shall we?

[billtodamax]

I'm pretty suspicious of Rogue Nine actually.

[Rogue Nine]

Each night can choose any player to Disguise their role as another role.

If that player dies the next day, they will be revealed as that role.

Does that mean what I think it does? Because billtodamax could be playing silly buggers with everyone.

[TBFProgrammer]

I highly doubt that that is what is going on. If Atreyu really was Ironhide, why would the real network trust bill?

The utterly massive bandwagon points to the wolves being afraid of outing themselves (even if Atreyu's plan had worked, it only would have bought him a day) and the network being in contact with the real Ironhide and/or bill telling the truth.

The wolves would likely have ridden it anyways, but if bill was not in the network and Atreyu really was Ironhide, the network would have every reason to go with Atreyu's test.

The only way around that that I can see is if virtually all the power roles were already dead, which would require heavy collaboration and luck between the neutrals and the wolves.

It is possible that the neutrals found out who the wolves were going to kill somehow, as opposed to the wolves learning the neutral role list, but that wouldn't tell us who they are.



I still think Ninjaxeq put in a very wolfish vote following Helgraf's reasoning on day 4. His "sort of" was decently suspicious in its own right, and all the worse for supporting the type of logic Helgraf was using.

Not to mention his post-death "well it was worth a shot" post. That kind of kills that theory by itself.

That makes sense billtodamax

[Penguinator]

Gnome, I find you incredibly suspicious.

[Vwulf DeMarcus]

I, for some reason, am going to follow the guy I tried to lynch yesterday, and say Banjo1985.

[Qwaz]

I'm gonna switch to see what bill can give us a second time. Rogue Nine

[Internet Flea]

I think I'll go with GnomeGninjas today.

[Grue Bait]

Billtodamax I guess.

[Penguinator]

Rogue Nine. Bill was right yesterday, why bite the hand that feeds you?

[GnomeGninjas]

I might be right about billtodamax but voting for him will get me lynched. RogueNine Seems like a much more popular target.

[52.5 Lemons]

GnomeGninjas. Just off a gut feeling here. Although, that could be all the beans I had at lunch...

[Zjoot]

Hmm, pretty powerful Rogue Nine wagon right now. I'd be interested to hear the reasoning (other than it's what Bill said) but for now I think I'll go with GnomeGninjas for his suspicious vote on Bill and his random accusation of a bunch of people yesterday.

[Rogue Nine]

Not to mention his post-death "well it was worth a shot" post. That kind of kills that theory by itself.

Didn't notice that- I wouldn't want to disrupt anything, so I'll change to GnomeGninjas for bandwagoning without input (something I guess I'm guilty of too).

[Gray Mage]

Humm, I'll go with rogue nine, although GG is a close second.

[Fleeing Coward]

Qwaz because I have to vote

[Trixie]

Fleeing Coward. It's always Fleeing Coward

[RuneboundShade]

Hum...

I find Rogue9 suspicious at this point.

[Grue Bait]

Whoops! I forgot Bill was the proxy for the seer

GnomeGninjas with apologies to Bill.

[Lex-Kat]

Day Over.

Narration Soon.

Feel free to send in night actions now.

Day 6

Swindle rubbed his greedy hands together enthusiastically. Okay, so whats I got for you here is, are you ready for this? Ramjet!

Swindle stepped aside, pulling on a small rope. The tarp it was attached to revealed a pearl white jet with red wings.

The buyer circled the nose cone of the fighter jet, rubbing his chin. And how can I be sure this isn't just a regular modified F-15 Eagle, painted to look like Ramjet?

He reached up to touch the nose cone, only to quickly retract his hand at the sound of the engines suddenly coming online. Then decided to take a few paces away from the jet, just to be safe.

Oh, this is Ramjet. And not one of those many copies of Ramjet. This is the original. The one they should have broken the mold after. With this baby, you can dominate the skies. Someone flying in your path? Just ram right through `em. With his polydurilium paint job, opnly the strongest of metals will scratch the surface.

It is tempting. But, how do I control it? What if it decides to cut out its engines while I am flying?

He doesn't have any control. Swindle says, raising his hand. I started him up with this. It lets you control his every action. He then brings the control box back down, and pushes a button. Watch! Now I'll make him transform into his robot form.

And with the typical sound of a transforming robot, The fighter jet becomes a coneheaded robot. A coneheaded robot glaring menacingly at Swindle. Swindle just smiles back up at him. Don't take it personally, Ramjet. It's just business.

Then looking down at his potential buyer. So, how does one billion sound?

The old man almost choked on his martini. Cough cough cough!! No, I think that's a bit expensive for something that I'll have to train myself. I think one hundred million would be fair. he said, after clearing his throat.

One hundred million!? Swindle says, sounding every bit insulted. Do you know what I had to go through to get you him? For that alone I'd say it was worth five hundred million.

Deal!! Five hundred million. I'll have the money wired to your account immediately.

Wait, what!! I didn't....

You said it was worth five hundred million. And I agree with you. the small billionaire said, looking up at the robot. Take it or leave it.

Swindle didn't like it, but he needed to offload the merchandise. Megatron would not be happy if Swindle were caught trying to sell Ramjet off. You have made an excellent choice. he said, making it sound as if five hundred million was his asking price all along, and handed the control down to the human.

After a quick transaction of money, and some instruction on how to use the controls, Swindle was away to rejoin the caravan.

As he rolled along, he daydreamed of all the things he was going to buy with his newfound fortune. He had heard there was an old Russian caravan hidden in some woods in Europe. If he could find that.....

His thoughts were disrupted by the sound of a roaring engine. He looked up to see Ramjet flying overhead. Believing the billionaire to be out joyriding his new toy, Swindle continued on with his thoughts. But as he drove on, the sound of the jet sounded to be getting closer.

Looking back, he found that he was being followed. What is that fool doing? he asked himself. Swindle accelerated to his top speed. But a jeep's top speed, even a cybertronian's, is not much when compared to that of a suped-up F-15.

SWINDLE!!! Ramjet roared as he closed in on his target. You'll pay for this!!

And with in seconds, Ramjet did what Ramjet does best. He rammed himself straight into Swindle, his human "master" screaming in terror in the cockpit.

And though the paint job survived the crash into Earth, Ramjet overestimated, maybe, his ability to survive such an impact. Or maybe he just didn't care. Either way, nothing was left alive within the small crater created that day.

Ramjet (Seeker) rammed Swindle, and himself, into oblivion. They were played by Rogue Nine.

Night 6

[Music=Led Zeppelin "Black Dog"]Hey hey mama said the way you move, Gon' make you sweat, gon' make you groove.[/Music] Qwaz was headbanging to the sound, not paying much attention to what was going around him.

So what if traffic was moving slow. He wasn't going anywhere important. Qwaz just leaned back and enjoyed the music.

BBBEEEEEEEEEPPPPPP!!!! Qwaz was jolted awake by the sudden blarring of someone's horn. Heywhatwho!! he said, looking about him, as the dream faded into reality.

He slapped his alarm clock off, and was about to roll back over, but decided he'd best get up. With a yawn, stretch, and a few scratches, Qwaz threw off his covers and went in to take a shower.

The semi-hot shower helped to wake him up. [Singing]I gotta roll, can't stand still, Got a flaming heart, can't get my fill.

Eyes that shine burning red, Dreams of you all through my head.[/Singing] he happily sang, though he wasn't sure why the song was stuck in his head. But he just shrugged it off. Must have heard it recently. he thought to himself.

Qwaz then stepped out of the shower, and began towelling off. That's when things got really strange. As he was drying his back, he noticed someone else looking at him. Quickly he covered himself, and looked to see who it was.

But found himself looking at the steamed up mirror. Laughing at how silly he was, Qwaz wiped the mirror off, then screamed at what he saw. Instead of his own reflection, he found himself staring at another man, who was equally afraid and underdressed.

He reached out to touch the mirror, and so did the other man. He shook his head violently, to clear the cobwebs, and so did the other. He slapped himself across the cheek, and so did the....

Wait, no he didn't. Instead the reflected man just smiled at Qwaz. You stole my body. the mirrored man said. And now I'm taking yours.

A chill ran down Qwaz's spine, and he ran out of the bathroom. SCREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!! Qwaz stepped on the accelerator, screaching his tires on the pavement, and his little Nissan took off like a rocket.

There was no time for anyone to react. It all happened too fast. One moment he seemed to be relaxing, the next his car raced toward the cliff. All at once, the convoy came to another halt as the humans jumped out and ran over to watch the car fly. And for a brief moment, it was a beautiful sight.

And then it began its inevitable fall.

Qwaz drove off the side of a mountain. He was a human.
