Suddenly the sound of an explosion rocked the building, sending glass shattering out of the windows of the room they had been in for the meeting. A few moments later Carl, with a face as white as a sheet appeared out of the stairwell, looking like the hounds of hell were chasing him. "Wait! Wait!" He cried, running for the helicopter.
Before anything else could happen he had bolted into the co-pilot seat and there he sat cowering while yelling at Ether to take off immediately.

As the arguments went on there was a sudden gunshot from a tower elsewhere and the shattering of glass from the front of the cabin. There was the sound of a body slumping against the front of the helicopter then and it without warning lurched into action. The helicopter lurchingly took off, knocking into Asroc in such a way that he would be sent sprawling into the middle of the others.
After a few lurching movements the copter began to lift up from the building and into the air where it began rushing forwards at a breakneck speed between the skyscrapers. During this time anyone trying to stand up inside the copter would be sent sprawling all over the floor, slowly a scared voice sounded out over a small speaker inside the center of the copter. "This... .ahhh... is Carl...." The words came hurried and garbled. "Ether... is dead! He ... he.... just got sniped!"

The copter seemed to miraculously right itself and began a fast but controlled descent, heading down towards the city center, going past the two parachuting groups. Slowly it began to move towards a clear area of land, signaling frantically. For a few seconds, the pedestrians in the area began watching then they began to run.
After it touched down four cars drew up around it, men in suits stepping out. All of them looking identical to Ether, forming a protective cordon around the helicopter.

(In summary, the room they were originally in got bombed and Ether got shot. After Carl landed the helicopter which some people tried bailing from all people on the ground are currently being picked up by Ether who is now revealed to be a clone. Asroc is in the grounded copter. )
Around the helicopter one of the agents approached Ceci and guided her towards Chenelle introducing himself as Ether 1423, It soon would become apparent to the entire group that all of the agents around them were Ethers, each having a different number assigned to them which they used to talk to each other.
He motioned the agents together, "Alright, the others are currently being picked up as I speak, it won't be long before we get brought all together. Now, we will be heading to a known outpost of the Shadow State to gather information on them. After that we will head towards the president... understood?"

The Ethers turned to look at him and with one voice spoke, "We're not." They then went back to whatever jobs they were doing before.
Carl popped his head out of the side of the copter and looked at Malvia in wonder, "For once and I hate to admit it that you are right, this is something we should at least address."
One of the many Ethers looked at him and sighed, "Look, it's very simple, I'm a clone of an agent made to serve the government in all possible military and espionage functions, an expendable unit. That is all."

Ether looked around before pointing to a group of armored cars, one with a turret placed on the top. "Sorry folks, the current vehicles aren't ready for this, we'll be going in those? That fine by you folks?"
(I would love to, however we might have to restart, so I'll see who is still around and then try getting more people)
Malvias player agreed to putting us up to three, only two note people needed to actually join
If we bring someone new in, would you prefer to continue or start again properly?
One other question, what improvements would you give for run 2? Like the quests, anything.
For the sake of new people coming in, mostly new quests. Although current affiliations will pretty much remain the same.
Just a reminder here for everyone who was on this, please go to restart to place yourself there so I know when to give you all the secret information
