Kendra was running down the street, following the scent of bamboo-breath
when her scanners suddenly went bezerk, telling her of a LARGE amount of
power and a weapons discharge.  Her scanners brought her to the source of
the power readings and her sensitive ears picked up what the mech was
saying.  "Panda's in there??
PAAAAAAAANNNNNNNDDDDDDAAAAAAA-CCCCCCCCHHHHHHHAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
she yelled and threw herself at the mech, kicking it in the chest with both
feet and making it stagger backwards.  She dove into the car after landing
on her feet (it's a cat thing:) and found two confused guys and a keypad
thing.  She picked up the keypad thinking "Neato! New toy!" and magically
altered her armor enough to attach it on the left arm, protected with a
small armor plate, turning it off as she does so, making Stargazers sensors
go dark.  Seeing the mech finally righting itself and aiming right for her,
she game it a bright cheery smile and 'ported up to a nearby roof, following
the scent of bamboo-breath once more...

meanwhile, Stargazer tries desperately to right the over balanced mecha.  "What
the Hell?  How did she do that?"  He spends a second to have his more powerful
op-center scanners do a scan on her.  "Oh, a cat/android type thing that 
explains it.  Hmm, I think I can take care of that."  He teleports in a small
micro chip, which he then tries to 'port into Kendra, but misses slightly and 
puts it into her armor instead.  "There, that viral micro-chip will shut
her down shortly."  He then notices that thee scanner that he had been using to
track Panda went black. "What the?!?!?" He does a more detailed scan of the
area.  "Panda wasn't in there!  Damn! Now where'd he go?"    At this
fortuitous moment, his Op-center scanners informed him that they had
detected an anomalous increase in the tech level around a nearby dojo.  "It
must be the other bounty hunters!  Their stealth systems would ordinarily
prevent me from detecting their increased levels of tech, but those systems are
interfering with each other.  I can't lock onto any individual, but all of
those stealth systems are a strong indication thats where the bounty hunters
are, so thats where Panda must be, and thats where I'm going." Stargazer
'ports out to a rooftop near to the dojo and plots his next move.

  Kendra was nearly to the end of her search (she hoped) when she suddenly
felt a....wrongness about her armor.  She mentally commanded the sytems to
run  a full check, soon finding a small chip imbedded in one of her
(thankfully non-tech) systems.  'Porting the offending chip into some place
called Micro$oft she breathed a sigh of relief that most of her armor's
systems were not tech, but magic enhanced.  As she thought this however she
realized that whoever did that must've been trying to port it into *HER* and
let out a window rattling scream of *I AM NOT AN ANDROID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!*
and poured on the speed, vowing to find whoever did that and making them
*HURT*...if that chip had gotten someplace important...heart, brain, that
kinda thing...she might've been KILLED....oh yes, whoever did that was going
to *PAY*
