”Got it!” She replied as Elijah went after a woman who seemed to be moving like she was out for a stroll. Breaking into a bit of a run, she clapped the security guard on the shoulder as she passed. ”Fall back to the door!” Without waiting for a reply, she reached the door and pushed by another woman. ”Clear the doorway, give ‘em space!”

Just inside the office she looked about briefly and spotted movement, some older fellow was making a dash for the door control panel; she could read the panic on his face. ”HEY!” She shouted, using her Army ‘command’ voice. ”Touch that and I break your fucking knees!” Turning back to the door, she made ready to help if needed.

-Last Night-


It was late in one of Honorfire’s less than stellar neighborhoods and music echoed out of a disreputable looking bar and into the worn streets around. The music swelled as the door crashed open as a fellow slammed through it and tumbled onto the sidewalk, coming to rest in a pile of refuse. While certainly still alive, it was plain he wouldn’t be moving under his own power for sometime. A silhouette filled the doorway, as Aden Chernus stood there with a triumphant smirk as she straightened her marginally ruffled shirt.

“Was that really necessary, Aden?” A voice asked over the dull murmur of voices as she turned back inside, closing the door as she did. ”Hey, it’s not like I killed him.” She replied, heading towards the bar. The bartender, who’d questioned her just shook her head as she poured a drink for another customer. ”Y’ could ’ve just said y’ were a Hunter, I mean, don’t you lot get some sort of crest to prove that? I’m sure if you’d pulled that out he’d ‘ve apologized..maybe even bout you a drink.” ”Maybe Sheena, maybe.” Aden replied, reclaiming her drink from where she’d set it on the bar. ”On the other hand, he was talking shit and you know I couldn’t let that pass.”

Sheena, the owner and sole barkeep of the Honor’s End, a rough and tumble dive bar built right against Honorfire's outer wall, just shook her head and rolled her eyes. Aden was a long time regular, and unlike many of the others, she paid her tabs. ”So,” She said, starting to wipe down the bar. ”Where you off to? You’re only this ‘fighty’ just before you head out.” Aden laughed and downed her third, or was it fifth, beer of the night. ”Oh, it’s a bad sign when your barkeep knows you so well.” They both shared a chuckle, before Aden got a little serious. ”Nothing too major,” She lied. It bothered her a bit, lying to someone she did actually consider a friend, but it was what it was. ”Just a patrol to the city’s southeast…rumor of a concentration of demons, so we’re gonna do a little scouting.” Sheena blanched a bit at her words. ”Hey don’t worry,” Aden said with a grin. ”My tabs all paid up after all!” Despite her obvious worry, Sheea laughed and reached out to cuff Aden in the shoulder. ”Very funny you ass, but seriously, do stay safe.” ”Always.”

-Now-


Aden yawned and grimaced as the hangover pecked at her. ”Laugh it up you ass.” She muttered to the human-shaped silvery figure ‘walking’ beside her. Gamas never spoke, but she could sense what it was thinking or saying, and right now it was most amused. Reaching the North Gate, she spotted what could only be another Hunter; the only other people nearby were the on duty guards, and civilians tended to avoid the areas near the gates when at all possible.

”Yo,” She said by way of a greeting. Propping herself against a wall, she did a once over of what little gear she was carrying, before taking the scattergun, which had been slung over a shoulder, and ‘racking’ it to load a shell. Then with deft and practiced hands, she slowly pulled the bolt open again. This time she re-seated the shot she’d just loaded, before tucking another round taken from her gear, under the bolt and onto the lifter. That done, she eased to bolt forwards before flipping the gun upside down and feeding a new shell into the magazine tube. All loaded up, she captured the gun’s hammer under her thumb and pulled the trigger, easing the hammer down once it released.

All that done, she dropped onto the bench beside Zyrick with another yawn. Gamas stood in front of the man and seemed to be studying him.

@Undying Curiosity Should we post, or would do you want to fill your [Reserved] spot first?

@XoXKieroBombXoX Just saw Undying's comment, and the gun-nerd in me compels me to speak up. If you want a (relatively) high capacity firearm that is compact and easy to use, go for a lever action rifle.

@Undying Curiosity When were you thinking of starting? Or are you still wanting to see if anyone else wants to put in a CS?



The hell? Did anything BITE me? The man’s question confused Eliza for a moment, until it clicked in her mind. Seeing the father stagger back to his feet after getting mauled, the naked man still moving after his throat was torn out. No fucking way…that’s just Hollywood BS… She thought for a moment before shaking her head to clear her thoughts; she could worry about shit like that later, now she just needed to get to safety.

”No, I’m good.” She called up, seeing a man’s face looking over the railing a floor above her. ”How ‘bout you?” Thank fuck he speaks English… He replied that he was fine as she heard him moving rapidly down the steps to her position. Moments later a blond haired guy about her age came fully into view, and her eye’s widened and her grip tightened on her piece of pipe as she saw his bandaged arm.

He looked confused at her reaction for a second before he saw his bandages, and went into a rapid explanation of what had happened to himself, going so far as to uncover the wounds to prove his point. Seeing the still oozing cuts, Eliza took his word; and then after helping reapply his bandages, they made some proper introductions. She looked up the stairwell briefly, considering heading up to see if there were other survivors; but who knew how many of the former guest and staff had been turned into those…things, and blundering into a whole floor of them would only end badly. If there was anyone else alive above her, she wished them luck.

Moving down towards the basement, she put her ear close to the ground floor fire door as she went passed, and even through the heavy insulation of the door, what she could hear sounded like a fucking nightmare. Moving on, the pair of them got to the bottom, though there was nothing to hear through the door, fortunately. Cautiously, she opened the heavy door. No seeing anything right away, she kept opening it until once more she could stick her head out and get a good look about.

The sound of grunting and banging drew her attention to a door labeled ‘Security Office’, which had a trio of…whatever they were…banging against it, there was a four on the ground not moving, it’s head looking fairly caved in. Carefully closing the door, she grimaced as she looked back to Elijah. ”There’s three of those things beating on the door of the Security Office.” She said a bit sourly. ”There’s another one on the ground too but, best I can tell someone bashing it’s head it. Hopefully that means the office is still secure. No idea if there are any more about though…” Looking back at the door, she wrung her hands nervously on the pipe. ”So…unless you’ve got any better ideas, I think we’re gonna have to just go through them. Sneak up and hit ‘em before they realize we’re there…”

@Undying Curiosity Ok...I was thinking much older (an assumption based purely on the fact that 90% of RPs like this are set in some medieval type world). Will need to re-evaluate my thinking then and start thinking much more modern.
