We Are Our Avatars XI (Open)

"I'm sure it's nothing." Candace said, the smug smile evident in her voice.

Ory'hara smiled slightly, and whispered conspiratorially; [color=0066cc]"We'll fly."[/color]

 

[Silence]

Sarah read the message, then read it again, then read it aloud. [color=99d039]"Seems like these Tombstone guys are not of one mind ... and we could stop them."[/color] she said.

[hr]

[color=e50000]"Alright. Interesting. Hmm ... was magic a thing on your world before those meteors fell?"[/color]

[hr]

Anik was quiet for a second, then said, quietly: "Huh. Nice. How do you fly?"

[color=0066cc]"I've got a shuttle on auto-pilot coming down. It'll reach us in a few minutes."[/color] - She paused, then added; [color=0066cc]"Going into orbit can be a little... uncomfortable when you're not used to it. Don't worry though, I've done it thousands of times."[/color]

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Rinia nodded to Dala, then looked over at Candace, scowling under her mask. [color=cc0099]"Are you an idiot or something?"[/color]

 

[Silence]

"In ... orbit? You seem to have quite better tools, now.
It can't crash, right? Or be followed? Or ... do you trust the technology?" Anik asked, anxious about technology she did not know.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Of course not. I'm highly educated. But I've hunted dangerous beasts before and come out unscathed. Why should this be any different?" Candace called back.

 

[Silence]

[color=e50000]"Ah, then it makes sense that it could be natural ... and Candace is kind of an idiot, yes.
I'll try to protect her, though."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Candace didn't hear what Dala said, looking around for signs of the beast.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Candace, and the others, would eventually spot in the distance a large feline creature, snoozing under a tree. Its fur had a dark brown colouration, and it appeared to have rock-like natural armour on its back.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Candace chuckled a bit, drawing her blade and gun, then looking back to the others. "Get the rope ready."

 

[Silence]

[color=e50000]"I'm ready to set the beast on fire if it threatens to kill you."[/color] Candace said. [color=e50000]"Can't do much with rope, though."[/color]

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"I'll make it bleed out a bit, then you can tie it with the rope when it's weakened. Does that sound good?"

 

[Silence]

Dala shrugged. [color=e50000]"I don't think I'm good with tying up things with my feet, but I can try."[/color]

 

[Vakra jal]

Dalahar stands up. "Yes, it's fine. Nothing new. If Sarah is correct then we can end this all now, just need transport to the facility"

 

[Gearhead mk2]

"Right. I might need to take a second however. I pushed my armour to the limit to get here in time. Brigette is on her way."
Lambda looked concerned, floating off to the side.
[Hr]
Candace began advancing on the beast, slowly to try and not spook it, blade drawn and ready to cut.

 

[ShindoL Shill]

The animal slowly raised its head as Candace approached, and snorted softly, staring at her.

 

[Gearhead mk2]

Candace did not slow, but held out one hand in front of her and spoke softly. "Easy... Stay..."

 

[ShindoL Shill]

Slowly, the beast rose up to its feet, snarling at Candace.

 

[Silence]

Dala watched how Candace was dealing with the beast, curious, from medium distance.

[hr]

[color=99d039]"Well, it's quite a while away. We need a plane or something ... I don't know how to get one, and how to stop them, anyways.
Unless we just send in Dalahar and Reinhardt, that is ..."[/color]
