Breakfast wraps up. Once the dishes are done, the group retires to the library where Jacquez is setting up a trid projector. The projector is not normally out - it would disrupt the period-specific decorations of the room - but it is available for guests who might need it. The device projects a trideo hologram into a five-meter cube directly above the device. Jacquez sets it up in the center of the room so that you can sit around it in the wingback chairs and on the plush sofas that are available.
Jacquez retires from the library, shutting the doors behind him to give you a degree of privacy. Doc inserts the BTL into the projector and hits Play.
The filming is in the first-person perspective. The cameraman looks down at his arm, checking out the cyberdeck screen on his forearm and hitting a few buttons on it. You catch the date as August 13, 2074. The camera looks up and see Chino standing next to a heavy door. Chino and the cameraman are stacked up, preparing for a violent entry.
"Hack, you're recording, right?" Chino hisses at the camera.
"I'm recording, I'm recording, you two-balled bitch!" Hack responds, barely suppressing laughter. [You recognize the voice of the cameraman as Doc's.] "Pull your panties out of your ass, B!"
Chino smirks. "And you'll edit it up later?" he asks. "Take the filters off?" he adds with a sly smile.
"Yeah, yeah, I'll do it up all nice and pretty and I'll give it to you wrapped up in a bow when we wake up spooning tomorrow!" Doc retorts with evidently glee.
"Not so loud! Not so loud!" he hisses, trying not laugh.
"This sneaking shit's not really by thing," Doc respond - slightly quieter - with evident mirth.
Chino does a laugh-snort, then tries to get his game face on. "Okay, okay," he says, practically giggling before doing his best to compose himself again. "Okay, okay. The only things holding us back are fear and good judgement."
"Never had a problem with either," Doc says.
"Me either. Let's hit it!" With that, Chino spins into position in front of the door, which appears to be armored steel. There's a flicker of a pause, and then his leg snaps forward into the door. The door rips out of the frame as if it has been hit by a bullet train, launching it into the room with insane force.
"KNOCK, KNOCK!" Chino yells as he races into the room. Doc follows him closely, wielding a shotgun. In the room they find a half-dozen Asian men. Doc introduces himself with the shotgun, screaming, "BLAT, BLAT, MOTHERFUCKER! BLAT BLAT!" A couple of heads explode; the camera shakes with glee and recoil.
Chino is off doing his thing. His thing involves dodging gunshots by jumping onto the walls and running around the room horizontally, then kicking people in the head before they can adjust their aim. The camera catches one particularly brutal Tae Kwon Do kick that either breaks the man's neck or crushes his skull, you're not sure which. Maybe both.
"FUCKIN PRIMO MOTHERFUCKIN KILLIN TIME!" Chino bellows, quoting a popular line from a famous trid-action star.
Chino is a blur, much stronger and faster than Doc is. He hurdles a long table, staying in the air an impossibly long time, before dropkicking another goon into the afterlife.
Doc exchanges a look with Chino. Doc then looks over to the two remaining Asian men, paralyzed at the violence which has encompassed them so suddenly.
"Don't shoot!" one Asian guy says, throwing up his empty hands with a wild-eyed look of fear and panic. The other does the same. Chino hesitates. That gives Doc enough time to empty a shotgun slug into the belly of the guy on the left. The guy on the right makes a break for it but Chino takes his legs out from under him and then silences him with a curb stomp. "Black bag for you!" he shouts, quoting a different trid star this time.
Doc lowers his weapon and walks into the room. It's full of weapons in various states of assembly. Many are cheap assault rifles - Colt M23s and AK-97s - destined for the streets. "This will make the big lug happy," Chino says. "A little late for Mother's Day but Mom will be happy all the same."
Doc looks around and realizes that the last man he shot is still moving.
Doc goes over to him, looking down as the man twists and groans from a grievous wound to the abdomen. The shot has exposed tattoos up and down his torso; they go along with the ones on his arms and his neck. The tattoos are of flames and dragons. Doc reaches down to the man, saying, "Here, let me give you a hand." Doc grabs his arm and then discharge his cybershotgun, blowing the other guy's arm off. The mist of blood and gore splatters the camera. Doc laughs hysterically.
"Damn, Doc, that's cold!" Chino says with a look of reservation. "Ain't you got a Hypocritical Oath or something you're suppose to uphold?" Seeing that Doc's not going to do it, he stomps on the man's chest to put him out of his misery.
"B, you're just mad because we tied, three-three!" Doc shoots back at him.
Chino smiles, then holds up a finger to wave back and forth. He steps back, pointing to where the metal door flew into the room: it crushed a man against the far wall. All Doc can see are the broken legs sticking out from underneath the door, and a growing pool of blood.
"Four-three, bitch!" Chino shouts with glee. Doc laughs with him, then goes up for a high-five with his shotgun hand. Chino slaps it with concussive force, then realizes Doc has tricked him into high-fiving his gory hand. He looks down at his bloody palm, then looks up at Doc. He laughs and shakes his head. "You're too much, Hack. You're too much. But, seriously, get me that recording, neh?"
Doc laughs with him and the recording ends.
