It is only several minutes before a small cargo plane, a C-23 Sherpa, can be seen over the Atlantic seaboard heading east out over the ocean. The plane has been painted dark grey and black.

Jubilee cracks her knuckles and smirks.
"Alright, so now what? Hop on the plane and kick ass? 'Cuz I'm all outta bubble gum!"

"I'll try to get them on the radio as we fly within visual range," Cyclops says as he tries to fly close enough to look into the plane's cockpit and hail them at the same time.

"Hail them first Scott. I can jump over to take a look, but let's not alarm them unduly."

Gambit checks that his collapsible bo staff is ready and double checks where the parachutes are.
"You can, but dey sure didn't paint dere plane like dat because dey wanted to be seen..."

Is the plane marked with the U.S.Army label as in the photo, or no?

Wolverine lets his claws shoot out at the mention of dissection.
"If that’s what they’re up to, then I’d be happy to give them a masterclass!" he growls, with menace in his voice.
"Lets go say hi already!"

It is an unmarked plane."Charlie One-Niner, this is a covert vehicle and you are advised to resume your previous course."
Jul 15, 2024 11:41 am
"Not that covert!" Wolverine barks, and squints out the window of their own jet.
"If we can see what they’re having for supper, it ain’t covert!"

Scott puts his hand over his headset mic and looks back at Nightcrawler, "Kurt, I want you and Logan to be ready to bamf over there." He flips the toggle to re-engage the comm system, "This is Cyclops... of the X-Men. We know that one of our people is on board your plane. Identify your covert vehicle's mission or we will take action to secure them. Jean Grey is with us and she can and will bring you down, if needed."

Crackle. "Negative. We do not have any members of the X-men on board. Our mission is classified. However your threat has been noted and recorded and we will pass this on to the proper authorities should you continue to pursue this matter." Crackle.

Jubilee leans over and points an accusatory finger at the comm system.
"I couldn't help but notice that sneaky wording there! They definitely have a mutant onboard!"

"Ready to go. But we're risking an incident here. It will be construed as aggressive action on the plane, we have no proof that a mutant is on board, apart from a triggered notification from Cerebro's tracking." Nightcrawler advised circumspection even as he turned to Wolverine to get ready.
"I can't see inside to teleport, so we'll have to land on the surface of the plane first so that you can open a hole to get in."

Can Nightcrawler see inside to teleport? If not, then that's the plan.Jul 16, 2024 10:46 am
"That tin can will lose pressure as soon as I cut it open!" Wolverine warns, his voice gravely and tired.
"Meaning we’ll want to move quick!"

He cannot. It's possible if the Blackbird flew ahead and turned around and flew at them head on to see inside the cockpit lol.Jul 16, 2024 12:37 pm
"Unless someone else has a better idea. Otherwise get us in range then." Nightcrawler indicated to Scott.
[ +- ] Teleport Together
Cost: 10
The character teleports, taking any person they are touching with them, into clear spaces they can see or have been to, up to 10 times their rank in spaces away. Outside of combat, they can teleport up to 100 times their rank in spaces away. If the target does not wish to be teleported, the character must grab them first.

Nightcrawler needs to be within 2000 ft range to pull this off. Jul 16, 2024 6:55 pm
"I trust Jean and Cerebro over these guys," Scott declares. "Let's see if we can get you close enough to pop into their cockpit." He pushes the stick forward, intent on flying under and past them, then pulling an Immelmann turn.

Excellent. That'll be a TN 16 Agility check. You get an edge for Piloting checks as well.Jul 17, 2024 9:06 am
"If you can get us facing the cockpit and looking through the window, I can get Logan and myself inside!"

Rolling 3d6 because I'm not sure how to roll an edge?Rolls
Piloting with an edge - (3d6)
(256) = 13
edge - (1d6)
(1) = 1
