5/30/13: CATS AND DOGS
PARTICIPANTS: LOUP GAROU, BANE (kibbitzing)
Loup Garou got a call from Jackson Green, his employer at HHI, who directed him to go to New York and meet with a Mr. Van Nostrand, president of the Jaguar Motor Company, who had hired HHI to protect a vault in their corporate HQ against theft of some important data for 48 hours, while the company awaited a patent award.
Loup asked Mr. Van Nostrand to let him wait in the vault during the time, but Van Nostrand refused. Loup went to the basement where the vault was located, and took up a position just outside the vault. He disconnected all lighting on the basement level, to give himself the advantage over any intruder.
Approximately 27 hours into the 48 hour period, at about midnight on a saturday night, Loup saw the camera system switch off, and heard the stairwell door open, followed by almost silent footsteps crossing the entry hall floor. These were followed shortly by the elevator doors opening, the sound of running feet, then the sound of combat. Loup sprang out to the antechamber, and saw the TOAD fighting CATWOMAN. After two quick rounds, CATWOMAN threw TOAD into the elevator, apparently unconscious. She then attacked Loup, who promptly knocked her for a loop, into the elevator herself. As Loup did so, he heard a rumbling behind him, from the direction of the vault. He turned to check it out, but out of the corner of his eye, spotted Toad preparing to knife Catwoman to death. Reluctantly, Loup spared another round to jump into the elevator and dispatch Toad before he could kill Catwoman. Catwoman then leapt back to her feet, shot a grappling hook up the elevator shaft, and pulled herself away from Loup, as he turned and ran for the vault.
When he reached the vault, he saw its doors knocked slightly off their housing, and plant roots coming through cracks in the floor and the vault door. Surmising that someone was digging in from outside, Loup turned and left the building, using his tracking sense to try to find the other end of the rabbit hole, so to speak.
As he passed the guard station in the lobby, he saw two guards just standing there, looking nervous. He told them to call the cops as he passed by. As he turned his back on the guard station, Harlee Quinn sprang up and tried to use a mechanical boxing glove gun to smash Loup's head, but missed. With a cry of "HELP!!! MAD DOG!!!" she then sprang over the guard station, and dodged around Loup and out the front door. Staying on mission, Loup ignored her and made for the scent he had picked up of the other end of the vault tunnell, which led him to central park.
He found the hole at the base of a tree, and clogged with thick plant roots. The person who went through the hole had to have been very thin, and had to have had some way of clearing the roots and pulling them in behind him or herself. Loup surmised it might have been Poison Ivy. He went into feral form, and again attempted to track the scent, and again picked it up inside the building. Reasoning that his feral form would cause chaos among the guards and police who were coming onto the scene, Loup waited until he could regain human form, and re-entered the building. He went to the basement with one of the officers, and found that neither Toad, Catwoman, Harlee or Ivy was still there. He did pick up the scent of the person whom he believed was Poison Ivy, leaving the vault and heading back into the building and up the stairwell, where it appeared to mingle with the scent of Catwoman. Ivy's scent disappeared down another crack in the stairwell, clogged with plant roots, while Catwoman's went up the stairwell, all the way to the roof.
Loup stood at the edge of the rooftop, noting that Catwoman's scent disappeared into the night air, and cursed Van Nostrand for not letting him wait in the vault...

if you would like to read Loup Garou's journal notes on this experience, go to "Bosses can be idiots." You will see that the GM's assesment of Loup's feelings about his employer are correct.
