Zack stares over the bannister, the enormity of his actions sink in as he pulls out his phone to illuminate the two bodies below.

Vitality -1
Wounds 14/14?
Issac calmly limps toward the bodies (starting with the leader) taking all useful belongings from the guards and handing over a gun and some ammunition to Zack. "They're just dead bodies... we will need to be prepared so you should take some of this equipment. Look at the mess that this city is in".

Zack burries the thoughts for now.
"Right, yes." He takes the gun as he heads down, checking it is loaded and finding out where the safety catch is, stuffing a few clips in his pockets and the gun in his waistband.
"Alright... help me get one of these vests of them... and grab I.D.s, might be useful later."
He also rummages for a military knife if they have any, taking one if it is better than his own flick knife.
Once he is equipped he turns to Isaac.
"Right, Cooper, hello. Been a rough start but I am pleased to meet you, I guess, as you are clearly aware... I work for A.N.G.E.L., your information has been handy in recent months but all seems... a little out of hand. Either way..." He unzips his bag. "Unlock this briefcase. I am going to photograph these documents and dead drop my SD card to my contact, get them out there, I will back up the contents on my phone storage and my laptop, shouldn't take more than two minutes and A.N.G.E.L. needs this info... after that... well, I'm open to suggestions. Sound fair?"

The pair of you begin rummaging through the corpse of the 3 soldiers, yoi find 3 handguns, the leaders still has 6 bullets in it, the other have 3 and 4 bullets. As you pick up the guns you both recall hearing rumours that S.A.T.A.N weapons and some of their equipment have I.D. locks, on remembering this you inspect the grip and see 3 metal pins embedded in it. You also find 3 assualt vests and the 3 helmets, again checking inside the helmet you see 3 metal pins at the top, it also seems to have quite alot of tech inside, presumably giving them night vision as you didnt see any source of light on any of the soldiers, each soldier also has 2 full clips.

"We should take these anyway, as an electrical engineer I can remove the locks, but I need time." I say with a shrug.
"At least the body armour is useful now." I say donning one.

(The assault vests act as breastplate, it is bulletproof)

Issac also dons the body armour he deems to be in best condition "Hand me my briefcase" he's says to Zack. Issac enters 1952 into the combination lock, opens it and hands Zack the envelope. He then Clips the two helmets to the handle of the case and throws the guns and the bullets into the central pocket. "We should move, there will be more coming this way. Hopefully these don't have trackers embedded" he says gesturing to the bag.

Zack utilises flash photography to quickly photograph the various documents and saves to SD, removing it and placing it in a trouser pocket for dead drop later, the documents he stuffs behind his laptop, he gives back the gun and clips to Isaac to carry in his briefcase and does up his coat to hide the S.A.T.A.N. symbol untill he can remove it with his soldering iron later.
"Armour is a bit heavy, I think I will swap it out for one of those police under shirt ones at the first opportunity. On your six Coop." He says, following him out and giving directions to his dead drop location.

As you take out your phone to photograph the documents you notice that your battery is running low (10% remaining)
You return up the stairwell and exit to the streets above, you notice all the street lights are out and all the advertisements are now blank. In the distance you see the towering inferno givin faint lighting to some of the surroundings.
You head through the streets away from the fire, seeing many panicked civilians running in all directions. You head towards an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the business district.
It takes about an hour to walk through the buisness district and as you approach the industrial district you notice that the usual plumes of smoke are absent, following Zacks directions you approach the adandoned factory, where Zack then takes the lead heading round the back to dozens of dumpster, he slides one out of the way revealing some loose brickwork. Removing a brick he places the SD card into the recess left and replaces the brick.

"I like your secret hide out" says Issac smiling and imaging how the scene would look if it was being watched on the big screen, the soft firelight giving everything a film noir feel. He swaggers up to the entrance. "Let's get down to business"

"Secret hide out?" You have been watching too many movies, I live in a 14th story flat... though it wouldn't be a bad place to secure. A.N.G.E.L. just uses the place for dead drops, this is dead drop four."
Zack sends a text, hoping the satalites is still up and running as it is apparently different from the WiFi in Domavad, it reads.
'I'
(In)
He then puts his phone back into sleep mode on silent and opens his backpack, plugging into his laptop to charge.
"There, should get a few full charges out of this. What's our next move Coop?"

"They were conducting a particularly dangerous biological experiment underneath that reactor. I think they were developing biological weapons of some kind, a disease of some sort or that.. bloody.. genetic jiggerypokery. This weapon may have just been released into the city. We are all in grave danger..." He pauses dramatically.
"The way I see it we have three options, so: 1) we get the hell out of here with as many people as we can save, 2) we lay low, wait for the troops to quarantine then try and gather more info, 3) we go and try and neutralise this weapon of theirs ourselves and head towards the reactor, would probably need some gear and back up though."
Issac sits down back against a wall resting his weary limbs hoping to regain some of his strength.

Zack tries the door to the warehouse on the off chance, trying to Jimmy it with his knife if it is locked.
"Well, Domavad is a dome city with fairly stupid thick walls, even the sky is a clear dome... so A is out the window. Unless you have a few dozen firefighters, hazmat suits and a degree in nuclear physics and microbiology up your sleeve... C sounds like suicide." He mulls.
"B seems least likely to get us killed, the area around the reactor will likely clear fast, S.A.T.A.N. will probably cordon the area sharpish... maybe we hole up here for a while, read the documents with a fine tooth comb and try to get the ID locks off one of these night vision helmets?"

Issac murmurs in agreement as he distractedly begins searching the surrounding area for anything vaguely interesting. (Spot -1, listen -1)

Isaac has a look around outside the abandoned factory and finds nothing of any interest at all, just small amounts of bent and rusted metal bars, seemingly from a fence at some point or another.
Zack on walking towards the door sees that the door is chained and padlocked shut, however, you notice that this hasn't stopped others from getting in a some point as a nearby window is smashed in, and old, partly broken crates are stacked into a makeshift set of stairs leading in.
