(Skeleton Keys) Hunting Coturi

[Alessandra]

She quickly takes out her phone and makes sure it was on silent, zipping it back into the inner pocket of her coat.

A quick nod was then made towards Hildegarde and she followed her. It was more her style to walk right up to someone and get the fight going than be quiet and plan like this. But, there was always time to learn new techniques.

Ok, so we're looking for branches, it's a forest, should be easy right? Finding the branches wasn't as easy as she thought, but being quiet, wellllll......

Not so sneaky Gangrel

[Konrad Roth]

Konrad can only do so much by himself. It's nearly two hours since he passed out his orders and he finds that not only has no one set up a jaw trap or snares, but no one's keeping watch either. At least the damn pit trap is done, though it isn't big enough to fit the whole Kine army, let alone a handful. Still, it is better than nothing and Juan is churning out enough stakes to fill the pit space at the bottom. Now it is just a matter of concealing it. They may be robot zombies, but they're not going to willing dive head first into a hole full of wooden spikes.

Once it's finished he waves the others over and points out the trap with his shovel. "See this? Don't fall in," he says, stating the obvious in a lowered voice. "This is where we need to draw them to. Though if we can get Coturi to fall in that'd be even better." Konrad points at the jaw trap, still in its box. "We set the jaw trap up to the side here so that anyone who goes around the pit will run straight into it. And we'll try to set up a snare on the other side so we have a nice wall of obstacles for everyone to get through."

He points next at Juan. "You and me are going to set up the snare." And then a look to Hildegarde and Ale. "Ladies, you keep your peepers peeled, make sure we haven't attracted any attention." And then another look back to Juan. "Let's get started."

[West]

I don't mind a bit of fast-forwarding. We can even (as entertaining as it might potentially be) skip rolls for how Konrad gets out of the hole he dug *lol* .

Let's just assume the traps are set up. Y'all have burned about 3 hours. Nobody accidentally staked themselves.

[Hildegarde Bingen]

While the men worked quietly away, Hildegarde kept a watch on the thrall's camp.

When the network of traps had been completed, she scrabbled back to the others preparing to make her report.

"So far, all is well. We are unnoticed," she began, sparing a quick glance to the black roof of the night sky. Time would soon be their enemy as well.

[Konrad Roth]

Once their work is done, Konrad feels a bit dirtier than before and admires their line of traps. "That aught to do it. Okay, folks. Me and Ale are going to approach the nearest robot and take them out while you two stay behind the line of traps under concealment. You'll know when we engage cause that'll be when the shooting begins. We're going to fall back and circle around the traps on either side and then take position directly behind them facing the bunker. We'll have a chance by then to see how these robots move and react. If they don't pursue us then we'll just keep taking them out until Coturi shows up and then fall back. If they retreat then that could mean that Coturi may be solidifying her defenses and we'll have to rely on the moltovs. We'll leave those with you, Juan and come back for them if we need it."

"Ale, remember where these traps are. I'm not going to be shooting but I'll try to keep an eye on our surroundings so we don't get caught by surprise. We'll take the knife, smoke grenade, and caltrops with us. And might as well take the headset too so we can give you some forewarning."

Konrad takes the bowie knife, smoke grenade, box of caltrops, and headset onto his person. He clips the knife sheath to his hip, wears the headset, and carries the caltrops and smoke grenade in each hand before looking to Alessandra to signal she's ready. If no one has objections he heads out towards the bunker with her.

[Alessandra]

Now the fun begins!

A sly smile appears on her lips as she nods to Konrad. She removes the left gun, popping out the clip to double check it was loaded and slides it back into place. The right gun remains in the holster, no need for both just yet. She mentally reminds herself where the traps were, not wanting to get caught in one. That would be embarrassing to say the least!

[West]

A good portion of the night is over.

For some it has been spent building traps; for others, it has been spent building walls. Likewise, some are nocturnal, and others are not. It's immediately evident that the drones have retreated for the night. Sometime in the past few hours, most have disappeared back into their hive.

Most, but not all.

Two dark figures stand taller than the thigh-high grass. Tall, and mostionless. Sentries.

It's roughly 12:30am. The daystar threatens in S-5:00

[Hildegarde Bingen]

Hildegarde nodded that she understood and moved carefully closer to Juan. She fumbled around for the knife Iago had given her; gripped it in a tight fist.
