USH'S GAME EPISODE III- 'ARTIFACT'. Dark Side area

Not from this end, for sure. You would be spotted jumping down onto the track and trying to find a way in, not sensible with the Jedi watching.

You'll need to get out of the stands and back to the entrance.

(wasn't planning on jumping back)
Takuan heads back at the entrance. He can barely make his way between the exilerated crowd and the small crowded seats. A too full atmosphere he considers moving fastly...

(I know you weren't, just describing your thought process)

Damn it, this is hard... the stadium is COMPLETELY packed and people are objecting to your movement!

Takuan pays no attention to unsigniffiant babbling. he knows time is very short and must act quickly.

The babbling is one thing, but you are finding it hard to physically push through the people!

Very hard indeed but certainly not impossible. He tries to advance even faster. Musn't loose time. He's still thinking on how someone could pass with a weapon when the entrance controlls are very rigurous

Just pushing will work, but will take a little time... you aren't the most imposing of people.

After a long struggle to get to back to the entrance Takuan starts looking around for a way under the seatings

In the Lake, obscured by the mists, the pack si still tight together. The other Mogarian pulls ahead of one of his rivals, but is in turn overtaken by another. At the front, where the audience watches, Speedy is gradually catching up with the race leader, Dodgy, and as far as the crowd is concerned it is now a two-horse race. At the back, Bashy boosts at Galder, who does not feel like making a fight of it and gives way!

POSITIONS AND SCORES

1st: Dodgy (38)
2nd: Speedy (37)
3rd: Orthodox (34)
4th: Mah (33)
5th: Boring (32)
6th: Bashy (31)
7th: Galder (30)

NOW ENTERING: The Straight, Lap 3

Ok, Takuan, you have made your way out of the stadium into the entrance area. It is very quiet.

He carefully starts looking for some way under the seats. A dark hidden openning.Something must be there. And he watches for security as wel as he knows that's a public restricted area

You'll have to be quite sneaky... but yeah. there are quite a few hidden ways in. Air vents, inspection channels, emergency exits...

he quickly chooses the way towards the inspection channels. Theu should have a way under the public seats for occasional inspections.

The crowd is screaming its head off! Galder has just made the most amazing run up the Straight, zipping by Bashy (something odd there... Bashy just gave up!), and then smashing THROUGH Boring, whi is now in terrible trouble! This pus Galder's rather bent pod off its stride but he gets close to the other Mogarian! Up front, Dodgy's pod catches fire spectacularly. He races on, though, and the smoke obsucres a similar chase by Speedy, who slows down lest he crashes in the smoke! The seven racers fly past the crowd into the Narrows, all pretty close, with all of them candidates for victory! The Narrows fill with Dodgy's smoke...

NOW ENTERING: The Narrows, lap 3

Dexx you, drop into the dark underplaces of the stadium, Pillar supports are all around you, and it is hard to see. You can hear the roar of the crowd above.

Takuan makes his way between the pillars. He can bearly see through the dark. Dirt and moisture surrounds him. The shooter must be in the frontal part of the stadium, where the chairs get lowest to the grownd.

For a while, you think you have come here for nothing. But then you sense... something... someONE... nearby!

There is chaos in the Narrows. Boring simply does not come out the other side. Dodgy and his smoke trail flames out first, pursued by Speedy who is clearly going too fast again.

The crows gasps. Orthodox and both Mogarains bash into each other in their part of the Narrows, and come out of the section almost totally out of control- into the hardest section of the lap!

1st: Dodgy (41)
2nd: Speedy (41)
3rd: Orthodox (40)
4th: Mah (40)

NOW ENTERING: The Twists, lap 3

Time is nearly up. The crowd gasps again as Dodgy's pod explodes after a ram from speedy., And both Mogarians are tearing through the field making a bid for the lead!

Takuan suddenly stops feeling the strong disturbance. he changes course towards it. The force had the strongest impact on his life, especially lately. Still running, he is focusing on what he felt a short time earlier.

The crowd is almost silent as the race nears its end. Both Mogarians tear through the field to the front, Galder smashing through Speedy's small pod on the way. He gets through but his own pod is now noticably damged; at the last corner of the twists the other Mogarian is ahead... but the race could go to any of the top four!

1st: Mah (45)
2nd: Galder (43)
3rd: Speedy (42)
4th: Orthodox (41)

NOW ENTERING: The Lake, lap 3

Takuan, you see a man silhoutetted at the edge of the room by a small opening that looks doen above that last corner. He is looking through the sights of an oddly bulky rifle.

Takuan spots him and grabs his lighsaber holding it tightly in his right arm. He'll be ready to ignite it at anytime. he approaches carefully
"you there!" he yells at the man hoping to divert him from the race.
