"Sounds like a good starting point," Alaria said, nodding to Kim. She turned back to Lucia, "So, apart from setting people on fire and moving things around, is there anything else you can do?"
Some vague memory tickled at the back of Alaria's mind, but she couldn't get at it long enough to actually remember.
Jay turned to Lucia. He had no clue why she was here up until this point. "Wait, you're kinetic?" He turned to her, waiting for her answer to Alaria's question. He hadn't seen her do any of that, and she'd been so quiet that he thought she might be shy, and he didn't want to scare her, but she seemed different now to him.
Lucia stiffened at Alaria's question. "My mother's a doctor, so I have good medical skills," she said confidently. She stopped there.
Alaria waited for more. Lucia said nothing else.
"Alright. I can work with that. We'll go reverse arrowhead formation. Jay and I up front, you in the middle, Kim takes up the rear. One of us get's hit, you drag them behind something and tend to them."
Alaria pulled up a map on the hummer's console, "There's an office complex here," she pointed, "and from aerial view it looks a little more secure than I would expect. ROE is important here: Do not draw or fire unless you are fired upon. Clear?"
"Have your people scouted a low-security entry point?" Jay felt the pistol's heavy weight against his legs in his pockets. "And is there any location that can be accessed to bring down the power? I'm almost certain I could get into their framework. Cameras, communication, I'll take out what we can." He looked to the females.
"There is a side entrance," Alaria said, "power ain't an option though. Each block is linked to a substation. We kill one, we risk bringing down that block, and raise a bit more hell than I would like."
"Hm." Jay nodded, "A'ight, a little more confrontation won't hurt I suppose." Jay was a little more fond of stealth, he'd much rather incapacitate and hide the unconscious bodies than go in guns a blazin', but if it couldn't be helped, he just hoped it wouldn't come to hand-to-hand, or that they'd be stranded out in the open.
Lucia prepared herself mentally for the coming battle, taking deep breaths to loosen the knot in her stomach. "Do we have an idea of the numbers we're facing?"
"Nope. But in a building like that, it can't be too unreasonable. There may also be civilians in there, though."
As she finished that sentence, the Hummer pulled up a block away. Alaria fished out her snub rifle, "Remember the Rules of Engagement. Return fire only."
Lucia nodded and pulled out her gun. She slid open the door and climbed out of the Hummer.
(May I join, I got a bit of information from the beginning, but what exactly is this about and what is happening at the moment? If I join.)
(Sure, you can join!
So it's about a group of 4: Jay, silver wolf hybrid, Patagonia, wolf hybrid, Alaria, soldier, and Lucia (me), telekinetic and pyrokinetic.
Patagonia is having a miscarriage rn and is being driven to a hospital, while Alaria, Jay, Lucia are breaking in to the headquarters of the Ivy League, an organization that is trying to overthrow the government by buying important people into their ranks. Our group is trying to stop Stephen, the leader, by breaking into this office. They know about the office and Stephen because Patagonia and her late brother used to be part of the Ivy League, but Patagonia ran away.
Make a character, you can be either a civilian we 'take hostage', or someone who works for the Ivy League and helps us. Or something along those lines.)
(Ok, I'll be a civilian, her name is Andromeda Winston, she is the secret daughter of Stephen, although she doesn't know.)
Andromeda is walking down the street when she notices a mysterious looking group of people getting out of a car. She starts to walk towards them, a bit frightened. ( Invalid Character andromeda)
(k we'll see I just updated so we'll have to wait for @SincereBeastie or @ShadowMisfit
(okie)
(wait it'll be easier if you're one of the civilians inside the headquarters so you can help us find our way around, it'll be much easier to get you into the story)
Andromeda sits in a giant building, she was told that she would learn information about her father if she comes here. So, she waited.
Alright. Here we go. For Pat.
Alaria pointed across the streat to the office complex. Without speaking she curved her finger to the left and thrust her hand that way, Entry point is on the left side.
She also took the time to screw a supressor onto the end of her snub rifle.
Andromeda looks out the window, her eyes widen as she sees a person with a gun.
Lucia nodded at Alaria. She tightened her hold on her gun and slowly started walking towards where Alaria had pointed. We're coming, Pat, she thought.
Jay looked up at the building, following Alaria's words and staying next to her as they would round the building, doing his best to stay low and out of sight. There's so many windows, someone's bound to raise alarm he thought, shaking it off and finding his blue eyes a new focus; their entrance. He watched it for any activity as they grew near, holding his firestar plus as a starting weapon.
Andromeda walks to the entrance, waiting for the people with the guns. She was attracted to them somehow. 'This is very stupid. Oh well.' She thinks.
Lucia cocked her handgun and held it up, ready to return fire. She stayed close to Alaria and Jay who both had their eyes trained on the entrance, taking slow and cautious steps. The gate remained deserted.
'Why is this entrance so..deserted.' She looked around, this whole place was practically deserted. "Huh…"
The group stopped next to the door, leaning up against the wall and nodding to them, before double checking he was cocked and nodding to Alaria he was going to check it out. Pushing against the door, slowly, before smelling an individual and stopping. But there was just one. He'd quickly shove the door open and grab whomever it was in a headlock and cover their mouth. He didn't know if this person was just a civilian.
"Quick-" He'd call to the group.
Andromeda's eyes widened in fear. She attempted to scream, but her mouth was covered by someone's hands. She struggled to break free, with no success. She mumbled something similar to "Don't hurt me!", but it was unclear.
"Easy Jay, easy. She's just a civvie." Alaria gestured to the door, addressing the civilian, "I have snipers outside. If you go outside, you can't tell anyone we were here. If you do, you're dead. Otherwise, stay here and keep quiet."
Alaria motioned for Jay to let her go.
Lucia quickly stepped into the doorway, looking around the room. "Is there anyone else around?" she asked Jay, marginally lowering her gun.
She nods, to show that she understands their request. "Can I ask what you're doing here?" She asks. "I thought that this was just a company."
