[13:51] Nahemoth Fright tries to bite you!!!

[13:51] Elina Koskinen: Good lord.

[13:51] Elilka Sieyes leans down to see whether Nat is rousing.

[13:51] Elilka Sieyes: Do you need to be sick, child?

[13:51] Natacha Chernov: Um, call Gadget! The trap!!

[13:51] Elina Koskinen stands between the door and the monster D:

[13:52] Elilka Sieyes rolls Nat so that he can reach the chamber pot.

[13:52] Gabriell Anatra: draw

[13:52] Loki Eliot: is it still in the street?

[13:52] Queer Hermit: Where is it!

[13:52] Elina Koskinen: Um, Watson…I thought you’d might want to know

[13:52] Elilka Sieyes: Hush, don’t get up.

[13:52] Nat Merit goes pale

[13:52] Victor1st Mornington: i think we should beat a hasty retreat before that creature comes back….

[13:52] Loki Eliot: YEH big ass turkey Baby

[13:52] Elina Koskinen: There is a bit of a situation outside

[13:52] Gadget Starsider: Shhh

[13:52] Elilka Sieyes: The creature..??

[13:53] Elilka Sieyes: My revolver is in…it’s in the sitting room.

[13:53] Elina Koskinen: It was smaller than I imagined.

[13:53] Elilka Sieyes: It’s gone?

[13:53] Nat Merit tries to sit up and cries out in pain

[13:53] Elleon Bergamasco: Yes!

[13:53] Gadget Starsider: I cant get to the trap, I got to guard me mate

[13:53] Elilka Sieyes: Damn.

[13:53] Nahemoth Fright shouts: NO GAAABA GOO SLAGG FLESH!

[13:53] Elilka Sieyes: Now now, Nat. Just be calm, calm.

[13:54] Gadget Starsider: Loki do you have a firearm?

[13:54] Loki Eliot: we wont let in in Nat, yur safe

[13:54] Victor1st Mornington: ok, got my revolver out, where is it?

[13:55] Elilka Sieyes: You must understand, you’ve had a serious illness. Doctor Kaligawa and I were able to operate. You’ve done very well, Nat.

[13:57] Gabriell Anatra shouts: The church!

[13:57] Nat Merit: my leg hurts really bad! like you wouldn’t believe

[13:57] Tepic Harlequin: here Mr Holmes, this backpack is full of food fer Nat! i’m off ter fighht the creature!

[13:58] Gadget Starsider: Loki are you armed?

[13:58] Tepic Harlequin: where is it!

[13:58] Nat Merit tries to sit up and screams from pain

[13:58] Victor1st Mornington: ummm…run

[13:59] Gadget Starsider: Oh Shit! Quiet

[13:59] Elilka Sieyes: Here, lie down. Nothing’s going to harm you in here.

[13:59] Nat Merit: is someone in the trap?

[14:03] Elina Koskinen: Phew, I say.

[14:03] Victor1st Mornington: did someone drop a bomb into the trap? :-o

[14:03] Elina Koskinen flops on the sofa

[14:03] Taliesin Daines: Bully!

[14:03] Victor1st Mornington: gadget! open it up!

[14:03] Elilka Sieyes: Yes, Nat, now don’t you worry.

[14:03] Gadget Starsider shouts: There was a big flash and a weird sound?

[14:03] Loki Eliot: Yahy its trapped :)

[14:03] Taliesin Daines: I thought I was a goner

[14:04] Tepic Harlequin: i’m gonna make it pay!!!!!

[14:04] Elilka Sieyes administers morphine.

[14:04] Victor1st Mornington shouts: gadget open the trap quick!

[14:04] Loki Eliot: what are we going to do with it though?

[14:04] Myrtil Igaly: I don’t see it

[14:04] Victor1st Mornington: its escaped

[14:04] Gabriell Anatra: How?

[14:04] Loki Eliot shouts: OMG!! HOW??

[14:04] Natacha Chernov: escaped?

[14:04] Taliesin Daines: oh no!

[14:04] Victor1st Mornington: that bomb blast

[14:04] Elina Koskinen: Watson…

[14:04] Katri Kaligawa: hmmm

[14:04] Victor1st Mornington points to the big hole

[14:04] Victor1st Mornington: thats how it got out

[14:05] Gabriell Anatra: Ah.

[14:05] Loki Eliot: what it can blast through metal now?

[14:05] Gadget Starsider shouts: What happened?

[14:05] Queer Hermit: It carries explosives?

[14:05] Myrtil Igaly: my gosh, it dug a hole in the cage…

[14:05] Gabriell Anatra winces at the report in this confined space . .

[14:05] Gadget Starsider shouts: Bugger me!

[14:05] Victor1st Mornington shouts: a bomb blast from the sewer blasted a hole in the trap

[14:05] Massive Hole: Oh my, there seems to be a hole that goes right through the bottom, its very hot like it was blasted through.

[14:05] Taliesin Daines: The thing almost tore me to pieces, but I seem to have dropped into the sewers – that’s what I call a timely coincidenc

[14:05] Tepic Harlequin: errrrr! it’s blown up from underneath!

[14:05] Gabriell Anatra: Someone freed it?

[14:05] Taliesin Daines: A hole to the center of the earth

[14:06] Loki Eliot: it blasted through to the sewer?

[14:06] heavy rusted door: Queer Hermit is at the door

[14:06] Tepic Harlequin: someone helped it escape!!!!

[14:06] Gadget Starsider: Bloody ‘ell!

[14:06] Myrtil Igaly: It freed itself

[14:06] Massive Hole: Oh my, there seems to be a hole that goes right through the bottom, its very hot like it was blasted through.

[14:06] Victor1st Mornington: this means….someone is working with the creature cause i didnt see it carrying no bombs…

[14:06] Loki Eliot: who would want to free it once its been captured??

[14:06] Tepic Harlequin: someone as don’t like urchins…..

[14:06] Myrtil Igaly: Someone who didn’t want to capture it?

[14:06] Gadget Starsider: Back to the drawing board!

[14:06] Loki Eliot: is everyone ok though, anyone bitten?

[14:06] Tepic Harlequin looks darkly around….

[14:06] Natacha Chernov: How about… Van Creed?

[14:06] MexScotFix: Say ‘on’ or ‘off’to turn me on or off, or ‘help’ for more commands

[14:06] Myrtil Igaly: But I think the Beast did it on its own

[14:07] Myrtil Igaly: Oh evening Miss Chernov!

[14:07] Tepic Harlequin: it tried, Loki, mate, but m’quick i am, an can jump!

[14:07] Victor1st Mornington: well, i must head to clockhaven for Mr Hammerers party, i’ll keep an eye out for the beast but it looks like its gone down below…

[14:07] Natacha Chernov: hello Myrtil

[14:07] Kristos Sonnerstein: Oh dear…

*Has a very stunned look on his face* I had high hopes for them catching that thing this time.

I must say it is quick!  I could not keep up with it and I tried my best.  The explosion bothers me, does this creature have friends who wish to keep it free?  Gadget built a wonderful trap but next time it should be located over solid ground to eliminate hidden confederates.

There will not be a Mk.V Beest Trap as I believe the beest is no longer at large (for reasons that I cannot divulge). However, we may all still be in great peril and I urge vigilance, tea and crumpets!

*is definitely up for the tea and crumpets part*

The creature chased me about the rooftop, but fortunately I was able to avoid direct contact. It is quite fast, but not exceptionally agile. I did get several shots off at it and at least two hit it, but they didn’t seem to have any noticable effect.
