"Wonderful." Misha said replied bitterly. One day home and already a loose end for some mob group. Well. Hopefully this band didn't think her worth the trouble. But one thing did stand out to her..

"Hey... If they are just after parts, why keep their victims alive? There were live warforged in those containers, right?"
Well, and there was one other thing.
"and waaaiiiit.... You can't have gotten here more than a few months than me. Why are you talking like you been at this for years?"

"Yes, our external body parts can be taken off and used again when we're dead, but we do have internal mechanisms inside of us that operate like your internal organs, we have what you would consider a heart and a brain, that is all one mechanism located here." He said as he pointed to his chest area, "created by magic and science working together, it has a great deal of operating power in there, potential some would say, but once we die, the magic that created it dies as well, and the machine becomes nothing but gears and wires. Maybe they're trying to do something with that and that's why they kept them alive." He then noticeably made a brushing motion on top of his hat when you mentioned him speaking as if he was here long before Misha was.

"Let's just say I did something for the army that got me out before others could. But I can't get into the details of what it was and why, that's under classified information of high authority. You should understand that." He replied.

"Riiiight. Whatever you say super secret man." Misha replied, rolling her eyes a little. She could guess Cooper stumbled on some secret of the Europeans and he had been recalled for debriefing, or something like that. It hardly mattered to her anyhow, since the war was over and it had nothing to do with her.

"So now we not just got warforged walking around, but they are also precious somehow, you know, apart from their radiant personalities. Where are the feds in all this? One would think they'd be all over mobsters stealing ex-military hardware. Last thing the government would want is some domestic do-over of the war, right?"

"Yes m'am, just full of secrets." He replied.

He brings his right hand and rubs his chin for a moment.

"Well, we're all precious in our own ways, each race that lives on this planet is unique and has something that could be desired by someone else. Take your kind, the Tabaxi for example, the reports said that at one point your kind was being taken and killed for your eyes and your ears, among other things, people believed it enhanced their own site and hearing. What I have found is if there is a market for something, there will be another that is willing to supply that product, we, the warforged are a new commodity to them. As for our federal agents, well, it seems that all available forces have been sent overseas to reap the spoils of war. Since we are on the winning side, there is much to get our hands on over there, claims to resources, intelligence, alliances, and finding individuals worth having come to this and other countries. It's the same thing they did during the previous world wars. If the numbers get large enough, well, maybe they'll send a unit here, hells, they might be investigating already but are going after the bigger players." He replied.

As you continue this conversation, you notice a strange fog coming from the back of the garage area, it creeps into your space, slowly touching your feet, then, soon, covering your ankles. It's thick and continuing to flow towards you.

"Um, m'am, I would advise you to head to your quarters, lock up and wait for me to come and get you..." He begins to say.

"Pelts, Cooper. They want our pelts. Every little Tabaxi cub is told not to trust strangers or accept gifts or they might skin you.... What the fuck is this?" Misha looked down at the fog. Now that just wasn't natural.. And she wanted nothing of it. She slammed her garage shut and locked it.
"Let's go then!"

"You're right, your fur would be something most desirable, terrible, just terrible." He replied before the smoke had gotten close. As it rose and attempted to cover the three Misha moves and shuts the garage door.

"Good thinking, guess we don't have to split up..." He starts to say, when suddenly a red circle forms around the garage door.

"Well, sh*t, that's not good!" He said, "Let's go! I'll be right behind you!" He said as he pushed Misha to take the stairs back to her room. He pulls out two pistols from their holsters and aims towards the circle.

"Don't be a hero! Move it!" Misha said as she ran up the stairs. They needed to get out of the garage complex fast. WHISKER ran ahead of her, scanning for threats as she grabbed her own pistol. But she remembered basic training well enough not to run blindly..

"Right behind you I said!" You can hear behind you as shots are now being fired and a small explosion can be heard. In a couple seconds you see that the Warforged is coming up the stairs and following him are a number of softball sized orbs that float up the stairs, air can be heard projecting from the things, there is no more smoke following them.

"Watch out, these little things got a kick to them!" He shouted as he took aim with both his guns, the sound of energy growing within them.

OOC:
If you have watched Starwars the orbs that are attacking you are like the ones that Luke trained with when he was learning from Kenobi. The turn order will go machines, Cooper, you then your robot.
The orbs come flying up the stairs where you and your machine stand on the top of the stairs heading to the second floor while Cooper is in the middle. You can clearly see that there are five of these machines that are coming up the stairs towards the three of you. Three of them look to have little laser like guns pointing towards you, while the other two are fitted with blades.

All three fire at Misha, letting out shots of pure energy, but only one of them hits you, striking your left arm. The two bladed weapons rush towards Cooper and your Steel Guardian. The machines stab into the chest of Cooper and the other attacking the leg of the guardian.

Without showing any signs of pain, Cooper throws his weapons up and begins to punch the machine that was stabbing him, denting the sphere greatly, as it backs off of the warforged, it falters slightly from being able to fly like it did before.

"Gah!" Misha shouted as she was hit. Thankfully it was just a grazing hit. She dove for cover and fired at the nearest drone.
"Get 'm Whiskers!"
She didn't need to say anything really, her jack-link sufficing. The big robot-cat leaped forward to jump around and snap at the drones.

The drone that was attacking Cooper is soon dismantled from the final attack from Misha while Whiskers leaps distracting one of the machines. The chaos that is unfolding seems to be going in the favour of Misha's group as the machines attack with their beams and their metallic spikes, but is unable to hit their targets.

Cooper raises the pistol in his right hand, takes aim and fires at Ranged Robot Sphere 1, hitting it on its left side, almost forcing it to hit the wall with the force behind it, he takes a second shot but misses it and hits the wall.

The machines are able to quickly dodge out of the way of your attack and begin to retaliate, one of the ranged sphere's fires and hits Whiskers, grazing its right arm with a beam of energy. The rest of the machines aren't able to hit their targets and Cooper is able to smack away the bladed one.

You can now hear that there is a faint beeping sound coming from the bladed spheres.

"Oh, when things start beeping, it's never good!" He shouts as his pistols magnetically connect to the side of his arms and he channels energy within himself, parts of him begin to glow an orange colour, the energy flows to his right hand that opens a small hole at the palm and fire roars out from it, targeting all four machines. Another one of the ranged ones go down from the blast and another is damaged, showing melting parts.

Misha's swearing was now a continuous torrent as she heard the beeping. What was this? Amateur hour? The drones over in Europe certainly didn't give her targets a warning before they did their thing. Still, that likely meant explosives were in the little bastard. She hoped her shot wouldn't trigger it, but it probably beat waiting for it to happen. With a swing she came from cover, aimed down the length of her barrel and took out the drone with a perfect shot. She quickly dropped back before the ranged drones could return the favor.

Misha unleashes her inner marksmen and shoots the beeping machine with such accuracy that the melee machine's little bomb blows back and damages the other three. Two of them explode themselves and one you can see is encased in electricity, falling to the ground.

"Were you in the sniper core?" Cooper asked as he watched the shot burst right through the thing and blow out the other two, leaving one left, damage and stunned on the ground.

The danger seems to have been taken care of. Cooper carefully moves over to the stunned machine, crouches down and touches it, no signs of power seem to activate from his touch.

"Well look at that, things shut down but doesn't look destroyed. Want to take a look inside? See if we can find any data as to where it came from." He said as he then grabbed it and stood up.

"Yea. Gimme that." Misha said grumpily as she put away her gun. She wasn't used to being on the firing line.
"I actually was a Jack-Pilot. I controlled big versions of these things. And knew a thing or two about maintenance. Since whoever sent these were stupid enough to make 'm beep instead of having them explode by proximity, I doubt they had the smarts to scrub them properly. Cheap street drones turned into bombs or with a gun attached.. But let's get somewhere safe first. I don't want another swarm coming for us out in the open."

"Are ya able to carry the tools that ya need to do so?" He asked.

"The station has a space in the basement that is usually available, with my ranking there, I should be able to get into that room without any issue, or visits. Then you can take your time and see what you can find." He said.

If you have all your tools, you, whiskers and Cooper head out and are able to get to the precinct without any trouble. After only a few moments of Cooper talking to someone in an office he comes out of the room.

"Alright, looks like we're good to go, only my superior knows about this, just in case." He said as you all get into an elevator, him pressing a button and it starting to go down. The elevator then comes to a stop and it opens, you walk down a hallway for a little bit and come to a door on your left, inside is a workshop table, some basic tools, a few chairs and stools and a computer at the far end.

"One of our old maintenance rooms, they've upgraded and moved all of that to another building, but never figured out what to do with these rooms." He explained.

"So, if it's alright, let's get to work."
