Fractured Ascendancy Leonas Region => Industrial Zone => Topic started by: Eight Tail Fox on October 17, 2010, 12:13:21 am Title: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 17, 2010, 12:13:21 am Hana wraps the heavy cloak tighter around herself to protect against the chill and heavy salty smog that ever seems to burn off in the Industrial District of New Haven. The street lights burn inside globes brownish haze and fail to illuminate the ground. If it wasn't for the ghostly forms ships to her left she could be anywhere in the district for all she could see in the soup. The one good thing in the fog is that sound carries well. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 17, 2010, 12:21:39 am Lee was walking through the fog, wearing a black pea coat, not to keep her warm, as much as to not let people know she was a vampire, if she wore only a dress, people would wonder and that lead to bad things. But at any rate, she was supposed to meet up with some one to exchange some information. However, the fog was thick, as was the haze. She had spent a half hour trying to find the spot she was looking for, needless to say she wasn't happy. Finally she saw a slim outline of a woman, and the few descriptions she got from the woman matched this girls, as far as she could see anyway. So without a second thought, she walked over to the woman. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 17, 2010, 12:39:27 am Hana spots a figure approaching. She stops just outside the sphere of the next street light so the figure will have to walk through it to reach her. Behind her a ship blows its fog horn in as it sails out on the tide. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 17, 2010, 12:45:23 am Lee walks towards the girl, hands in the pockets of her pea coat, passing all the obstacles in her way. Finally, she reaches her. "Hello, I'm Lee Silverson, is your name Hana by any chance?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 18, 2010, 08:08:54 pm "Lee Silverson. Interesting name, though you'll be a guy." Hana teases stepping closer. "Even better that you're a lady." She continues, giving Lee a big friendly hug. Leaning in close to her ear she whispers, "Relax I'm sure your more likely to bite than I am. Sound carries well in the fog and who knows who listening in. Best we continue our dealings somewhere more private." That said she turns away and leads Lee down the street with an arm around her shoulders. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 18, 2010, 08:17:19 pm "Glad to see you're happy I'm a lady." said Lee, returning the big hug. Then she whispers, "I agree, who knows who might be lurking in the shadows? Oh and relax, I don't bite friends...often." she teases back. Lee allows Hana to lead her by the shoulder to their destination, wherever that might be, her black Gothic boots barely making any audible noise. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 19, 2010, 08:53:38 pm Hana leads them through the fog to one of the numerous warehouses that line the docks. She lets go of Lee as they near the large doors for the warehouse. The door is left just open enough for a human to pass through and give a peak into the brightly lit interior. Uniformed men work guide the unloading of a shipment of small marine diesels from the bed a semi trailer. They glance up at Hana briefly and she waves her hand in the direction of the truck in reply. Glancing back once to make sure Lee was still following her and having no trouble, she leads them through the maze of tarped equipment and palleted heavy metal parts to an managers office. "Close the door behind you please" Hana says settling into the somewhat dirty office chair behind the paper littered desk. Various log books and service manuals fill a shelf within arm reach of the desk. A large clock ticks noisily above the door. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 19, 2010, 09:01:26 pm "Sure, no problem." said Lee, cheerfully. She was in a good mood, no clue why. She closed the door behind her as asked. Lee moved over to the side of Hana and took off her coat, revealing a purple blouse with long sleeves and red markings, a black and red dress, and vague traces of black boots. Around her waist was a small bag, she opened it a pulled out a manila folder that was slightly bigger than the bag it self and waved it in front of her. "Here it is, all the info you need. Now," she said, folding her arms behind her, with the folder in hand. "Let's discuss." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 19, 2010, 09:18:20 pm Hana studies Lee as she removes her coat. She the notes that Lee is dressed very Gothic. She never really understood why vampires had a thing for reds and blacks. Her attention falls to the bag when she senses that its not an ordinary bag. She nods and presses her hand to the wall. Runes hidden under the paint come to life and all noise from the outside world ceases. "No one outside the room can hear us and we will not hear anything outside this room. Please continue." Hana states with a bored calm. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 19, 2010, 09:27:26 pm "That's good to hear." said Lee, smiling. "I figured that telling you the info would be far to controversal, so I figured I'd just take it. I have no problem with giving you the folder, I just want to join up with the Archives is all. I'm sick of being a loner, plus it's nice to have someone's back and vice virsa. Let me join the Archives, and the folder is as good as yours." After Lee finished, she studied Hana, trying to make out what kind of person she was, and so far, she was leaning towards a strong willed person, but not without kindness. Not easily tricked either. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 19, 2010, 10:11:26 pm "Don't see any reason to deny you entry into the organization other than a matter of loyalty and trustworthiness." Hana says dryly. Her eyes are pools of cold calculating intelligence as she returns Lee's gaze. They could make use of her if nothing as another field agent to keep watch on the growing number of ANGEL operations. Quantity is a quality in its own right. The shear size of ANGEL has prevented the small yet very powerful Archives Group from doing more than being a uncrushable annoyance. "I'm not even sure if the information in the folder if genuine or worth our while." Hana continues. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 20, 2010, 05:02:41 am Lee watches the gaze of pure logic staring back at her crimson, pupil-less eyes. 'Yep, defiantly strong willed. She seems to be very suspicious as well, that's good.' Lee thinks about it for a moment before grabbing some of the papers on the desk and placing them carefully on the floor. With more room on the table, she places the folder on the desk and opens it. Inside are vehicle blue-prints, weapon schematics, a fairly detailed summary of the super soldier program, and a page of information about ANGEL General Linda Rai, all with ANGEL's mark stamped on them, plain as day. "Well, still think they're fake?" asked Lee, with a smile on her face. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 20, 2010, 10:01:49 am Hana glances over the papers, noting the details in the schematics and the official looking ANGEL seal. They seem real, more so they seem to be originals or official copies; and not photographs, prints of digital scans, or photocopies. "They look like the real thing. How were you able to collect them?" Hana says while sitting up straighter in the chair. "And how do we know that ANGEL doesn't know you got the information?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 20, 2010, 02:24:43 pm Lee smiled at the comment she was given, however now she had to explain how she got the papers, not a very epic story, but it'll serve the purpose. "Well to be honest, there is only one person that knows, ANGEL Prof. Vlad Goostoff." said Lee. "The story itself is kind of long, so make yourself comfortable." Lee pulled out a spell book and turned away, she muttered something under her breathe and a black chair that looked like it was made of skulls appeared. Lee put the book back in her bag and pulled out a crystal ball, a rather large one, with a stand. Needless to say the bag was magic. Lee sat down on the soft red leather seat of the chair. She placed the ball down and started to speak, the images on the crystal ball following her words. "I'm...not from around here. As such I needed to collect information on this region to survive. I did many things, threaten, beat, question, bribe, and a few other things to get what I desired. I came across information on Angel and didn't like what they had to offer. I found out about the archives and the thought of information gathering as well as having allies applied to me, but I didn't want to come empty handed." Lee let that sink in before starting again. "I was scoping out an Angel base that Vlad was supposed to be in, which meant it would contain a lot of information. I had been planning to break in for a little while, but one day a group of Hell's Army broke in. Needless to say I of course joined in. I tried to sneak by without being noticed, killed quite a few ANGEL members, and even some Hell's Army troops who thought I was an enemy. I reached the research room and found Vlad, I knocked him out before he could see me and took the files. Even if he did see me, Vlad wouldn't say anything, because he knew if it was his fault, J would kill him, and Vlad's a coward. I've laid low and so far nothing has happened yet." Lee finished before cheerfully adding, "Well that's all of it! Hope it helped. Oh and if your wondering about the magic ball, and this chair, I'm also a sorceress and a vampire, cool huh?" she said with a smile. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 20, 2010, 11:12:32 pm Hana listens carefully. Lee's story seems plausible and if it was true then ANGEL may not know they lost the information. Which means they might not be watching Lee. "You'll fit right in with the Archives then." Hana replies, not impressed. She collects the folder and starts to browse through them. Not looking up from the papers she continues, "I'm willing to accept you as an Intern or possibly provisional Clerk ... Contract is also a possibility." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 21, 2010, 05:02:37 am "An intern huh? Or a clerk?" asked Lee, her face in deep thought. "Umm, you don't happen to need a doctor or nurse, do you, like for an infirmary? I've got a masters in Neurology and Primary Care. I'd rather do field mission or treat people, but I'll take what I can get, I'm not greedy." said Lee, still thinking about the job. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 21, 2010, 08:50:46 pm "Let me explain the positions better. With in the Archive's the most powerful are know as Librarians or some variation of it, my personal title is Head Librarian, Archives, Special Collections. Clerks form the bulk of our field operatives and administrative staff, and quite skilled in there own right. The security and foremen here are clerks. Interns or rankless may or not have skills but are in general are to weak to deal with supernaturals or ANGEL forces by themselves or in combined into the small teams we used in field operations." Hana says clarifying her previous offer. "We don't employ dedicated medical staff as any injuries that cant be treated on the field or by the local base can be easily sent through the portal system to reach an clerk or librarian with the skill needed to treat them. The main Archives usually staffed with one with that skill specialty though that isn't their primary job. We don't employ people to stand around waiting for to be of use." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 21, 2010, 09:02:51 pm "Well that's fine then. A clerk sounds like a decent rank for a me." said Lee, her smiling fading slightly after her next phrase. "An intern on the other hand, I doubt that. I worked hard to get those papers, all of them are legit and 100% true. Plus, I'm able to handle myself in combat quite well. I'm giving you some rare info that Hell's Army would kill for, I think I deserve some credit." said Lee, a more serious look in her crimson eyes. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 22, 2010, 08:00:32 pm "Ya Hell's Army would kill for it. They don't have the information network we have." Hana says more or less ignoring the intent Lee's outburst. "As for working hard for the information. You got lucky. You won't always have a forgiving companion to knockout and steal information from." Hana continues coldly giving her the fact. The vixen files away the Lee's folder in the desk before pulling a blank piece of parchment, bottle of ink and a quill from the desk. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 22, 2010, 08:40:22 pm Lee's crimson eyes widen. She grit her teeth, trying to calm herself, too bad it didn't work. "EXCUSE ME?! Did you just say I 'got lucky?' I was planning to break in anyway, I saw an easy chance, I took it. I was DAMN good enough not to get caught!" shouts Lee, her nails crushing the arms of her chair. "You have got a lot of nerve, I haven't seen YOU with this information." After every word Lee's eyes seemed full of fire. Not a good sign. "I DEMAND, that you take but what you said. I've been kind up until this point, and you were as well. I understand that the situation that I was easy to get done, but you could have worded it in a kinder light." said Lee, slowly calming down. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 22, 2010, 09:12:06 pm "Master always said i needed to learn to be more tactful." Hana says still seeming to be unconcern about how Lee is reacting or even paying her that much attention. She didnt really need to see Lee her senses allow her to 'see' where lee and what she is doing and taste her aura. She knows more about Lee from being in the room with her than any of the boyfriends or girlfriends she had. "Good to know you can get angry and rein it in." Hana says, dipping the quill into the ink and to drawing an elaborate border around the page with rapid concise strokes. The black ink fading to red as she draws. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 22, 2010, 09:31:07 pm Lee was losing her patience. "It's not worth getting angry about. Some people just chose to be emotionless husks, I suppose you might be one of them. You don't seem to care about anyone else, or even have the manners to look someone right in the eye." said Lee, more agitated than anything else. "Do you happen to have anything to eat or drink. Regular food, coffee, water." asked Lee. "And yes, I can consume normal food, but I prefer blood, but that would be rude to ask for." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 22, 2010, 10:26:06 pm "I cant write your contract if you want me to look you in the eye" Hana says putting the quill down and looking at Lee. Hana smirks a little then thinks better of pushing Lee further, now isn't the time to continue to press her buttons. "Sorry, Lee. I don't have any food or drink in this room. Nor does one of my powers allow me to summon or create any." Hana says politely. She shrugs and continues, "We can go somewhere to celebrate your acceptance into the organization as soon as we finish the contract." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 22, 2010, 10:32:18 pm Lee almost fell off her chair. Check that, she DID fall. "What? So you mean...I got the job...and it seems like you where messing with my emotions." said Lee, getting up. She glared at Hana, then did the oddest thing....she laughed. Not giggled, not chuckled, but laughed. "Wow, you got me good. I must of looked like a complete moron, freaking out like that." she said, now giggling. "Well it would be nice to grab a bite, how much longer until we do so?" asked Lee, now smiling again. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 12:14:03 am Hana just smiles at Lee's reaction. "Yes, I needed to know just how easy it is to press your ... eh, buttons. It would be good if you learn to keep better check of your emotions during missions. Letting your emotions guide your actions can lead to the failure of a mission." Hana says keeping an eye on Lee. Sure that she alright, Hana picks up her quill and begins filling in the middle in a fine print: CONTRACT OF SERVICE CONTRACT OF SERVICE (this "Agreement") dated effective as of October 22, XXXX (the "Effective Date", between the Archives and Lee Silverson (the "Clerk"). WITNESSETH WHEREAS, the Archives desires to employ the Clerk as an agent of the Archives; WHEREAS, the Archives and Clerk desire to enter into the Agreement as to the terms of her employment by the Archives; NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises contained herein and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows: 1.

Archives By: ____[signature Hana]____ Nana, Head Librarian, Archives, Special Collections Clerk Lee Silverson By: ______________________ Lee Silverson Finished with the contract Hana slide it over to Lee. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 23, 2010, 10:59:42 am "Yeah, I've always been a short fuse. I used to be worse. Heh, oh well, I'll work harder." said Lee, taking the contract. She read it, seeing it fair she sighed her name on the line. Smiling, she gave the contract back to Hana. "Now, let's celebrate, my treat." said Lee, smiling. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 03:02:13 pm Hana pushes it back. "One last step, leaving . Active the seal around the contract's border to bind the contract to you and activate your system privileges: secure communication links, portal network access, etc." She goes back to reviewing the documents, particularity the papers on super-soldier project and general Linda Rai, while she lets Lee decide if she really wants to joint the Archives. "So what kind of food you want to eat?" Hana asks when Lee decides what to do with the contract. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 23, 2010, 08:25:49 pm "Activate the contract eh? Very well." Lee raised her hands and her eyes glowed, she let her magic powers flow into the contract and she felt, the same, but having the ability to open a portal anywhere would be pretty sweet. Lee looked down and saw Hana reading the files, more specifically the file about Lin. "So, I see you're interested in Lin, huh?" said Lee. "She is a rather interesting person, powerful and dangerous. But to answer your last question, I'd like to go somewhere fancy, you can pick, as long as they have steak, I like it rare." Lee smirked after she said this, it was obvious why she liked rare anything, more blood. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 09:47:35 pm Hana finally accepts the contract and muses on where to go for steak. "There isn't any particularly fancy steak places near here. Though there is a few upper end surf and turf places within walking distance." Hana replies. "Go ahead and start packing up while I'm compressing the file you gave me." Hana tells Lee as the fox pulls out a scroll from the desk, unrolls it, and lays it on the desk. She sets the stack of papers in the center of ring of runes, an enlarge and transpose array with no fix values. Laying her hand on the array she focuses on reformatting the document. Inside the glowing ring of runes the print on the top page shrinks into the top left of the page. The print from the second page appears one ninth the original size at top center. The third page appears on the top right and so one so that 9 pages are compressed onto one. Moments later she pulls the top four pages off the stack to reveal that the 5th page is now completely blank. A check of the all the other pages left in the stack would reveal that they are also blank now. Hana rolls up the four pages and the contract, and inserts them into a scroll tube. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 23, 2010, 09:56:01 pm "Yeah, I'll put away my stuff." says Lee. She grabs the crystal ball, stand and all, and drops it into her magic bag. Then she adsorbed the throne back into her hands, put on her coat and watched the rest of Hana's performance with the words. "Must be fun to manipulate words, but regardless, let's get going, otherwise I might maul someone." said Lee teasing again. "Vampires can be scary when hungry." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 10:14:50 pm "Okay lets not keep you waiting more then," Hana says as she stands up. She shrinks the scroll case and adds it to the three others on her belt. "Succubi or Incubi might be scarier when hungry. Then again its said that a vampires bite can be quite sexual too." Hana says with the last part coming out almost flirtatious. Hana reaches the door and lays her hand against it. The full world of sound returns with shocking and deafening suddenness after the quiet private world of just the two girls and the clock. She counts to three before opening the door and stepping out. She takes a different path out of the building. They exit on the side away from the docks. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 23, 2010, 10:36:44 pm Lee's mouth almost fell open when she heard about the bites being sexual. She followed Hana outside, still shocked. "Umm, why did you say that in a...flirty kind of way?" asked Lee, finally able to say something. "I mean, they can be...but why say it in that kind of voice?" Lee was now less nervous, and more confused. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 11:07:17 pm "Well you are beautiful." Hana says then changes to subject. "Your communication device still needs to be crafted any appearance you want it to take? It could also be an implant." Hana follows the roads closer to the city. The surf and turf in shes heading to is just on the edge of what is considered the industrial district. You can tell they where leaving the industrial district as the density of trucks decreased and more personal cars could be seen. It air quality also improved somewhat. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 23, 2010, 11:20:58 pm "Well you are beautiful." after Hana said this, Lee blushed. It wasn't everyday someone called you beautiful, guy or girl it was nice to hear. Lee also listened to the comment about the communication device. "Thanks for the compliment, I don't get them that much, you're pretty good looking yourself." said Lee with a smile after briefly looking over Hana. "How does it feel to be part fox?" asked Lee. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 23, 2010, 11:51:25 pm "Thanks." Hana says looking away from Lee so she wouldn't catch her slight blush. "I like being a fox and a vixen at that. Fox fur is soft and people find fox ears cute. If you want you can pet one of my tails or ears." Hana replies positioning herself so that her ears are well lit under the available light. The change from large warehouses to business parks signaled that they are almost half way to the restaurant. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 12:12:48 am Hana tried to hide her blush, but the always watchful crimson eyes of Lee saw the obviobous way she tried to hide it. "Sure, I love fox fur. I once pet a real one." Lee raised her hand above Hana's head and pet her ears. "Wow, it is soft." She keep it up for roughly a minute before she realized that it was slightly awkward. "Sorry about that, got a little carried away." said Lee blushing slightly. "But I suppose you might want to know what it's like being a vampire. It's nice, you stay the same age, get more powerful, but you do have to suck blood, and sunlight hurts. Immortality isn't all it's cracked up to be. But I enjoy it, most likely gonna die in battle anyway, hopefully for someone I care about." said Lee, her face in slight thought. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 12:37:57 am Hana falls into an pleasure induced trance under ear rub from Lee. She walks on autopilot and stays on course only because she walked the path before. "Its okay" Hana says distantly still in the trance state. She collects her bearings and reestablishes situational awareness as she pulls herself out of the trance. She listens to what Lee has to say about being a vampire. The comment about immortality triggers a new thread of thought. "Answer truthfully. How old do you think I am?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 12:45:04 am Lee turns her head and looks at Hana, ****ing one of her eyebrows. "How old you are? Hmm." Lee looks Hana up and down before saying anything. "Well, you have a tall, slim figure, but you're face makes it difficult to decide." said Lee, still in thought. "But if I had to guess, I might say a very young looking 21, perhaps?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 01:23:30 am Hana laughs at Lee's guess at her age. "Very flattering. Very flattering. I'm over 160 years old" Up ahead the Lion's Paw comes into view. The restaurant's exterior is a fenced off wooden deck with plenty of tables in front of a simple brick shape concrete building with a glass front. The interior is another story. It is dimly lit with each table a small island of sightly better lighting to provide romantic/formal eating experience. The walls are wood paneled and a large wine rack covers one wall. Small paintings of ships at sea and various fish decorate the walls to provide small reminders that this is a seafood restraint. The restaurant is semi crowded with is a good sign about the quality of the food. The patronage tells even more about the quality and cost of the food. The patronage of the Lion's Paw was equally divided between business casual and even formal. The maitre d' starts to ask if Hana wanted her usual seat before noticing that Hana had company. She picks up a second menu before leading Hana and Lee to a table set in the corner form by a wood paneled wall and the wine rack. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 01:35:13 am "Wow, 160, and you don't look a day over 21." said Lee, giggling slightly. Both Lee and Hana are lead to there booth. Lee sits on the opposite seat that Hana sits at, so she's facing her. The restaurant looked very formal, just the way she liked it. It was odd, dining with a woman, but weirder things happened in life. Lee opened her menu and scanned the menu, picking out what to start off with. The waitress walked in just then. She had long black hair, a black polo, khakis and a apron around her waist. "Is there anything you'd like to drink?" asked the waitress, her brown eyes looking at Lee, intently waiting on the answer. "Yes, I'll have a bottle of this Italian red wine, here." said Lee, pointing to a picture on the wine list section of the menu. "How about you Hana, what will you have to drink?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 02:13:51 am Hana slides into the booth with ease. She knows what she wants so she doesn't consult the menu. "The wine would be fine." Hana says looking at Lee for confirmation that they are sharing the wine. "Also we will start off with a serving of your excellent fried calamari" Hana says confidently. It was something she was comfortable eating all of if Lee turns out not to be a fan of it. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 02:18:29 am The waitress nodded and left, leaving Hana and Lee alone. "Squid, huh? I suppose I'll give it a shot, all I care about is the main course, everything before it doesn't matter. So Hana, you asked me, so now I'll ask you, how old do you think I am?" asked Lee, putting her arms on the table, and balancing her head on her two hands, a smile plastered on her face. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 02:58:29 am Hana uses Lee's question as a excuse to let her eyes wonder over the vampires body with a gaze that seem to pierce through the table and through Lee and see every bit of her. She starts at the the vamps feet and tracking up along her long legs, over her hips, across her taught stomach, over well endowed chest, along her neck and finally into her eyes. "I'll say 28." she says with a knowing smirk. "So what you think your going to order?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 03:05:30 am "Very good. While age-wise I'm 28, I became a vampire at 18. My body changed a little though." said Lee. "I'll be ordering steak, mashed potatoes with gravy, boiled carrots, and peas. Oh and I see you got an eye full." stated Lee, her lips curled into a knowing smirk. "Oh and what are you going to order?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 03:20:47 am "Well you are beautiful." Hana repeats in response to being called out again on her actions. "Since we have a the red wine. I'm thinking one of the salmons or maybe there clam chowder with a house salad." Hana says still having not touched the menu. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 03:29:32 am "Thanks." said Lee. Lee wondered what Hana was up to, but she didn't really care. "Oh and that sound lovely, I'd get the chowder if it were me." The waitress brought the bottle and the fried calamari on two separate plates. Then she poured the wine in the two glasses. "Now, could I get your orders for the main course?" asked the waitress. "Yes, I'll have the steak diner, rare." "Rare? Are you sure ma'am?" Lee merely smirked. "Of course I am. And you Hana?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 04:05:51 am "There both good. I'll have the cedar plank salmon with garlic mash potatoes and green beans." Hana says. She takes a sip of the wine and selects a piece of calamari while waiting for the waitress the be out of earshot. "Have you decided on the form of your communication device will take?" she asks. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 04:11:55 am "Actually I have. I would like one that is an ear piece. It seems an effective place to put it, huh?" asked Lee. After answering the question, she started eating her meal and drinking her wine. 'Not bad, tastes pretty good actually.' thought Lee. 'This Hana is an interesting person, I must admit, it's fun playing with her reactions. But I'm starving so I think I'll hold off...for now.' Lee thought to herself. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 02:06:18 pm Hana dips one of the calamari into the provided marinara blend. An ear piece. Her current ones are two small to be used. Maybe a behind the ear hook. or a dangle. She sighs. Wish silver or makoto was here it be easier to make examples. She shrugs and look at her forgotten calamari. Right food. Time to eat. She eats it then another before taking a sip of her wine to cleanse the pallet. "Ever wear dangles? That or a larger square or lozenge shape stud earrings, the ones with multiple stones or enameled sections?" she asks. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 02:11:28 pm Lee notices the sigh and figures out there must be something wrong with the idea. Then she remembers her ear rings. "No, never wear dangles, but maybe it would be too much trouble for the ears then, could you give me an example of another type of device? What communication device do you wear?" asked Lee, right before she stabbed her own calamari with a fork and dipped it in her own blend. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 02:49:34 pm Hana pauses and closes her eyes. She generates a map of all the nearby entities. A couple bugs catch her attention. "Seems this restaurant has bugs" Hana says softly. A faint glow leaks from under the table as she forms an arrow and sinks it into a certain under the table. She scoots over and casually claws something into the wood. There is a faint pop in the wall. "I'm implanted. If you excuse me i need to use the lady's room" Hana says sliding out of the booth. She goes directly to the restroom like one with familiarity with the layout of the restaurant. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 03:05:27 pm Lee watched as Hana got up from the table and excused herself. Lee ****ed an eye brow but figured something was up. 'Should I go with her?' thought Lee. She wanted to wait and watch, but she had a bad feeling that something was going happen soon. So she finished her appetizer and followed after Hana. She knocked on the bathroom, went inside and spotted Hana. "What's going on?" asked Lee. "Who's here?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 03:48:47 pm Hana hears someone knock and then enter. She knows who it is when she hears the voice. The questions the voice asked lowered her estimation of Lee slightly. She didn't expect Lee to panic so easily. "Just found a pinhole mic and camera in the wall and another audio bug pushed into the underside of the table. Also I just needed to relieve myself." Hana says calmly before pulling the toilet paper. She dries herself and stands. The toilet automatically fushes itself as she arranges her black kimono. She exits the stall carrying the cloak. "As to who here. No clue they were generic bugs. Stuff made by a high end 3rd party spy supplier not in house products." She says as she flips the cloak back over herself. She looks at Lee through the mirror as she washes her hands. She turns around and looks up at Lee. "Are you worried?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 04:15:49 pm "Worried? No. Shaken? Yes. You can't be too careful, my father taught me that." said Lee, calmly. "Frankly, I don't know why you're taking this so lightly, think about it. We come to the restaurant, and there is oddly enough a bug here? It must be more than a coincidence, wouldn't you agree?" asked Lee. 'Typical, she thinks me being concerned about a bug is a weakness, figures. I've survived on my own for a while, in conditions just like these, I'm no fool.' she thought, to herself. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 04:37:13 pm "Not that odd. I come here too often and that's my usual table those were for me. It wouldn't even be all that odd to find bugs at if we get a completely random table." Hana replies drying her hands. "Everyone. Corporations to spy on competitors. Private investigators to spy on who ever there clients want. Data farmers mining for juicy nuggets to sell. Perverts to spy candidly on there prey of choice. My brother really loves messing with the last type" Opens the door and leaves the restroom. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 04:43:23 pm Lee can't believe that Hana said her brother is a pervert like nothing, if she had a sibling like that, he'd have the **** kicked out of him in no time flat. 'Who IS this girl.' though Lee. So Lee washes her hands, than goes back and sits at her table, trying to figure out Hana. Lee looks normal, but her face is tilted down and kind or spacey, like she's in deep thought. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 05:08:14 pm Hana chats up one of the waiters. Finding out if anyone visited their table while they where both away before some small talk to see how her favorite waiter is doing, learn the state of his family and pets, and a update on rumors he overheard. She gives him a quick hug and thank you before finally returning to her table and letting the waiter return to his rounds. She notices the hanged head and spacey look. "You okay?" Hana asks after slipping back into the booth. The calamari is cold now but apparently still safe. While waiting for a reply, she eats them, carefully dipping them into the red sauce before placing them into her mouth. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 05:20:06 pm "Huh? Oh nothing, just thinking. So who was that waiter over there?" asked Lee, lowering her eye lids and smiling. "Is he your boyfriend?" she said teasingly. Meanwhile, after she said this the waitress came over and placed the main courses on the table. She then took the old plates and asked "Is there anything else I can get you?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 06:35:11 pm "Just a friend. I tip him well when he serves me and he watches my table when i need to be away from it and feels me in the more interesting rumors he overhears." she says as she eyes the waitress approaching with their food. The vixen gives the waitress a quick look over. Making eye contact and giving her a smile. "Not today, maybe some other time. Thank You for the offer." Hana turns to her food. "It smells good." she comments then flakes of a piece of salmon and eats it. "Tastes good too." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 06:53:05 pm "Yeah, I agree, can't wait to enjoy." said Lee. She then picks up her wine glass and lifts it up in the air, but not too high. "A toast, to the Archives and the fall of ANGEL." said Lee with a big smile. Meanwhile.... A large African man sat on a large ZBD-97' tank, with other, smaller ZBD-97 tanks in front of it. The man wore a mechanic's navy blue jump suit with multiple zippers, a necklace with nuts and bolts on it, a belt with numerous guns on it, navy blue steel toe boots, black gloves, and a large jacket, with the word A.N.G.E.L sewn on it, and multiple medals on his jacket. Judging by the amount of medals, he was obviously a colonel. He had long black braided hair going down to slightly below his neck with a pair of goggle on his head, a goatee, a fairly large chin, and sharp but tired brown eyes. He stood up and called over two ANGEL officers, he had a loud voice, but with some trace of a southern accent, though impossible to tell which one. "Have you found out her location?" asked the man, named Colonel Diesel. "We have traced her to the Lion's paw. What is our next course of action sir?" said the first officer. "Simple, we lead her here and ambush her, I'm sure her genes will be welcomed, send a few troops over there, and bring one of the jeeps, we don't want to waste any of our tanks." "Right away sir." said the second officer. So they gathered a few troops and headed to the restaurant. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 07:49:37 pm "Indeed" Hana says before raising her own glass. "To the Archives and the fall of ANGEL" Hana takes a sip before placing it into onto the table and digging into the salmon. Flake by flake pausing only to take a sip of wine and eat some of the beans or potato. As she eats she listens to reports being forwarded to her about a small battalion of ANGEL troops massing in a park. "Looks likes ANGEL's up to something." Hana warns Lee once she sorted out the reports. "All we know is that there is an infantry battalion setting up about 5miles East South East in a park supported by a few of there APCs." She goes back to eating as if this was just another normal day for her. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 07:59:32 pm Lee ****ed an eyebrow. "Shouldn't we do something?" asked Lee. "I mean, they must be up to something?" as Lee said this, she could hear an engine revving and a car no, a jeep driving about 15 yards away. In a few minutes, it parked. Soon ANGEL troops busted through the doors, in an attempt to block off the building. Most of the people, either ducked under the table or hid behind something. "Everyone remain calm." said one of the soldiers. "We're here for a fox named Hana, she works for a group called the Archives, hand her over and we won't shoot." Lee face-palmed. "I hate to say I told you so, but I told you so." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 08:46:03 pm "Seems we know what they are up to now." Hana replies with a cold calmness. She continues with her meal. Hidden by the table cloth she scratches out an array onto the underside of the table. "Wait before were outside to start the fighting" she says just loud enough for Lee. Five Grenadiers carrying smaller Beowulf 0.50 Assault Rifles, instead of there usual high-power, long-barrel 0.50 Anti-material rifles, and short swords approach along five different routes with their high-strength, lamented ceramic metal composite tower shields raised between the fox lady and themselves. In addition to the tower shields they are covered head to two in a suit of lightweight yet strong armor. Behind each of the grenadiers 2 additional soldiers armed with MP5s or M4s closely follow ready fan left or right to lend there firepower the the fighting. "Okay boys lets take this outside." Hana says with cold confidence. There is a massive flash of light and the table flies at the grenadiers. At the same time the wall explodes outward and hana dives through the opening and the soldiers blindly fire. She takes off running down the street. A flash of green light from under her coat and a gale of wind strikes the jeep and rolls it over. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 09:04:43 pm Lee waits as the ANGEL troops follow Hana out of the new exit she made, a smirk on her face. She pulls out two silver revolvers with pearl handles and gold trim out from under her dress, temporarily revealing her black leggings and boots laced to her knees. She fires a few rounds at the back of the troops heads, killing some of them. The others notice that someone was firing at them and they return fire. Lee hides as the bullets fly past her. She drops her guns and summons a barrier. As the bullets bounce off the barrier she pulls out her Guan Dao, then she waits until they're ammo runs out. She brings down the barrier and lounges at the first troop, impaling him through the chest. Then she pulled her weapon out and cut the heads off of two more men. The others raised their shields but Lee shot out lightning from her weapon and it struck two more down from the back. There were three more left and they charged her with their swords. She blocked and ducked continuously until she found an opening. One by one she took them down, either decapitation or impalement. After she made sure there was no more troops she used her magic to change into a more suitable outfit. Dark magic swirled around her and enveloped her. When it cleared she was wearing a black jump suit, a silver breast plate, a black vest, silver belt, gauntlets and boots, and black gloves. Other than that, she looks the same, black bag and all, except with her hair was put up in a pony-tail. With her outfit change complete, she grabbed her guns, reloaded them, strapped them back to her thighs and headed out after Hana, full speed ahead. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 24, 2010, 09:55:37 pm Hana slows to a walk as she finds no pursuit. Guess they either got Lee or Lee got them. She would have the element of surprise so probably the later. She uses her free time to prepare her spells. Onto her fan she paints gust and fireball as well as aura blade and meteor. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 24, 2010, 10:05:11 pm "Damn, I knew I shouldn't have taken my sweat time with those morons." mumbled Lee to herself, running as fast as she could. "Now I'll never find Hana. No, I can't think like that." she booked it across her urban surroundings, her metal boots hitting the pavement with a thud. She finally caught sight of Hana, thank God. 'Damn, she can sure move.' thought Lee. "Hana, would it kill ya to slow down?" asked Lee, teasingly. And with that, she booked it over to Hana, so she could rejoin her partner again. Meanwhile...at Felix Damion Caldwell Memorial Park, where Angel is camping. An officer walked up to Colonel Diesel Jackson. "Sir, we've lost communcation with the troops we sent." Diesel sighed. "I figured as much. Is Hana still coming?" he asked. "Yes sir. And there has been a report that someone else is with her, a female. We believe she is a vampire." "No kidding? Do we have anything on her?" "No sir. But she is following as we speak. From what we gathered, Hana escaped and the vampire was the one that killed the troops." "This isn't good. Prepare all the weapons and vehicles, tell the snipers to be ready, we're going to take them down tonight!" yelled The Colonel. "SIR YES SIR!!!" replied the troops. Jackson turned and looked towards the area Hana would be appearing from. 'I'll get you yet girl. Angel will have your head...and your genes.' he thought to himself. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 25, 2010, 10:06:05 am "Possibly. If you haven't noticed they have snipers watching us from the roof tops." Hana replies, but she does slow down. She slips in next to Lee. "So got any plans on how to attack the brigade entrenched in the park? My defensive arts not that great for a head on assault but if your up to that I can back you up." Hana says wishing she carries more than the single deck of sutras with her. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 25, 2010, 08:29:41 pm "I thought there were snipers here. I'm pretty sure they won't attack just yet. They must figure if we see them, they'll just waste bullets." said Lee. "At any rate, a full frontal assault would be fun, but I will need you to cover me." Lee then smiled a devious smile. "I've got a special something in store for them. Oh speaking of sleeves, you like my new outfit? A dress wasn't suitable for a mission like this." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 25, 2010, 09:10:20 pm "It rarely is." Hana says with a sigh of long experience of ruining dresses that way. Hana ponders what to do about the snipers. "I can draw their fire but I cant shield you from the fire, will that work?" Hana says. "Claymore mines." Hana warns spotting the green plastic boxes up ahead. "Guess, I'm going to have to play this card early." She says to who ever listening. She spreads her fan. It crackles with white green and red sparks before bursting into flames at the end of the drawback. She swings the fan to fire a flaming gale down the street. Glass shatters, cars flip and tumble down the street, and anything else not secured to the street gets tossed down the street, including the poorly hidden claymore anti-personnel mines. The fire scorches paint and chars paint but doesn't linger long enough to ignite anything. "I like this combo." Hana says closing her fan again to extinguish it. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 26, 2010, 06:38:29 am "Well, I suppose that could work. They're after you anyway." said Lee. "You distract them, and I'll take them out, you ready?" asked Lee, eyes focused on Hana, waiting for her answer. Meanwhile with ANGEL... A few of the officers got a report from the snipers. So they reported to Colonel Jackson. "Sir, from what we've gather the snipers have Hana in they're sight, however they've been spotted, what should they do?" Diesel pondered for a brief minute. "Are they still on the roofs?" he asked. "Yes Sir." replied the officer. "Hmm, well then, maintain their positions and get them to get they're other weapons ready, make sure they keep Hana in they're sights at all times. She is the main target." "Right away sir, but the vampire is also with her, what should we do?" "Watch her. We don't kn ow how capable she is and blindly shooting her could be bad for us." "Understood, I'll give the orders sir." "Good. You're dismissed." The officer saluted the Colonel then walked off. Jackson then sighed. "This is gonna be a long night." he muttered, to himself. |

Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 26, 2010, 05:40:49 pm "Hope this last long enough" Hana comments softly. Then with confidence, "Ready! Lets go!" She breaks into a full run, charging ahead of Lee and weaving slightly to throw off their aim. The fan bursts into to flames again, followed shortly by another flaming gale that tears at the soldiers gear and sends flying any unlucky enough to be standing instead of flat to the ground or braced against a structure. Hana's fan slips into two and blades pop out, 4in knives projecting 2ft long blades of energy. She slashes the troops directly in front of her with the 10 bladed weapons. Spinning and slashing she tears into the troops in a whirlwind of death. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 26, 2010, 06:02:13 pm The snipers, forgetting about Lee, shifted their attention to Hana, big mistake. Lee jumped to the top of the building and sliced the head off of one of the Snipers using her weapon. The other sniper on the roof across took aim and fired, but Lee blocked with the blade of her Guan Dao. Then she drew her revolver and put a bullet in each of his hands. She ducked as another troop with a sword tried to slice her head off. Lee kicked him off of the building and he fell to his doom. She drew her guns and fired a few more bullets at the rest of the troops down below, the ones who might pose a threat to Hana. After wards, the vampire put her guns away again and went over to the roof of the other building looking for her victim, only to find he wasn't there. A second later his bloody hands were at her throat from behind her. Lee manged to kick him in the leg hard enough to make him let go. She then proceeded to grab him and smash his head against a wall. She let him drop as her breath slowed, she felt weaker. 'Damn.' she thought. 'I need more blood.' then the goth looked at her victim with a sinister gleam in her eyes. In less than a minute, the sound of teeth piercing flesh could be heard, echoing throughout the urban surroundings. It was then followed by a blood-curdling scream and then...silence. Lee wiped the blood off her face and jumped off the building to join her partner...who was no where in sight. "DAMN IT ALL!!!:" shouted Lee, before rushing off again. Meanwhile with ANGEL... Diesel looked over in front of his troops and saw Hana in the distance, killing some of his troops. "Officer! Get me my weapon!" shouted Jackson. the officer pulled out a massive monkey wrench from inside a strange case and threw it at the colonel, who caught it like it was nothing. "Alright little girl, let's see how well you handle this." at that moment, the small, empty tank next to him seemed to turn into liquid metal. Jackson then formed it into a massive drill and made it start spinning, heading straight for Hana. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 26, 2010, 09:03:07 pm Hana slows down when she sees the giant drill approaching her. "Liked it better when they didn't magic users in their ranks." she complains while blocking a couple bullets that managed to find their way to her. She would need to use ground magic if that drill is as strong as it looks. She leaps backward and with the fans fires off a pair of flaming gales at the drill. She tosses one of her fans like a six foot diameter giant ten bladed shuriken to mow down wide swath of destruction before looping around to attack the drill from behind. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 27, 2010, 02:42:36 pm The fan cut the drill in half right down the middle, crashing into the ground on either side of Hana. However, Jackson smirked, he turned the the halves into liquid again and this time they rose up to encase her in a ball of metal before becoming solid. To double his chances for a good shot, he ordered three of his tanks to fire at her, only to find they exploded. Something clogged the barrel of the guns. When Jackson looked, he saw a female vampire with two silver smoking miniguns for arms roughly 10 feet away from Hana. "Sorry I'm late." said Lee, smiling. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 28, 2010, 12:54:52 am Hana is taken by surprise by how easily her fan slices through the giant drill. That was too easy. A trap? Hana thinks glancing at the fan half buried in the ground next to her along with the two halves of the drill. She looks for the source of the metal 'control', the controller has to be near by. She spots the colonel standing with not the look of panic or fear but concentration. He's the controller, she thinks as the drills melt and engulf her. Well isn't this cliche, she muses as she bids her time waiting for an opportunity to break free. The moment comes when the sphere solidifies. She takes advantage of the solid metal's inability to reform itself to what ever shape she takes by changing into her small fox form. A few flicks of her tails marks the sphere with her transmutation array. The sphere crackles with white arcs of energy before shattering into pieces. Hana back in her normal form catches the fan the was carrying with her left hand and retrieves the second fan out of the ground with the other hand. "Thankfully not too late." she says noting the three destroyed APCs with there tank caliber guns aimed at her. The fan in her left hand ignites again and she throws one of her flaming gales at the Colonel. Continuing the rotation of the swing she spins around the throw her right hand fan with is ten sword size blades of death at the Colonel too. "I think you are just in time for the main event." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 28, 2010, 04:15:26 am The colonel notes the flaming fan heading towards him and once again liquefies a tank near him, turning it into a sheild, making the fan bounce off of it while setting it ablaze. The colonel opens a hole large enough to escape from then closes it. He then makes the metal seperate into hundreds of flaming blades, and throws them in the direction of Hana and Lee. Lee manages to escape but one slices threw her arms causing it to bleed. "Here's an idea," said Lee. "He may be a giant, but close combat will stop him from concentrating on his metal powers." said Lee, turning the miniguns back to her arms. She puts her guns away and draws her Guan Dao. "Now, let's try this together." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 28, 2010, 11:38:59 am Hana notes that is fifth tank/APC is destroyed destroyed between the Colonel and her companion. The after action report and equipment requisition orders from this battle should be interesting. It annoys Hana slightly that the toss fan got deflected that's why she has two. The colonels counter was easily counter with another gale to defect and knock back the flaming metal shards. "Your running out of APCs Mr Colonel." Hana taunts. "Now, let's try this together." She hear Lee wisely advise. "Worth a shot" Hana says closing her remaining fan to make a saber length claw weapon. Hana closes in to attack at the same time as Lee. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 28, 2010, 02:55:43 pm "Running out of tanks am I? Silly girl, I'm a colonel of ANGEL, not a one trick pony." Lee closes in but Diesel stomps his foot, causing a massive pillar to appear in front of Lee and Hana. "Damn you." said Lee, jumping off the pillar, then she gets an idea, she pull out her gun a shots 3 bullets at him, then she summons lightning to fall from the sky. The colonel responds to the greatest threat, he summons a rock formation to absorb the lightning, but takes a shot to the arm and a shot to the leg. Jackson grunts and forms more rock formations, making a clear path to hit Hana. He jumps from rock to rock at decent speeds, using his heavy weight to throw himself around. He raises his wrench over his head and goes to slam it into Hana's head, with massive force. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 28, 2010, 04:44:22 pm Hana dodges around the raising pillars of rocks. Just like training at home she smirks as she easily avoids the pillars. She becomes isolated from Lee by the pillars and the colonel is moving to attack her. She tests her fan but the spells on it have worn out or broke from the repeated open and closing. No time Hana thinks whipping out a sutra and raising it as fast as she can to intercept the wrench. She deploys the barrier just in time. The force of the blow still knocks her to her knees. Can't miss. she thinks as she draws two scrolls at once, water and fire. There is a flash of purple light for an instant before it is drowned out by the brilliant orange of the jet of flaming viscous oil being projected at the colonel at point blank range. "Burn." Hana growls. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 28, 2010, 05:00:00 pm Jackson's eyes widen as the flames come toward him. He barely manages to put up a pathetic barrier of rock and hide his face from the blast. Needless to say the flames were far to powerful and blasted through the rock, burning the colonel. His face was mostly unharmed, but he did have some pretty bad injuries. A look of pure hate was in his eyes. With sheer determination he slammed his now ungloved fist into the ground. The force of the impact caused the ground to rise up in a giant plateau, sending everything on the ground to fly up about ten feet. This gave the colonel enough time send a message to one of the bases nearby to send an aerial pickup. As this was happening Lee was one of the things that ended up in the air. She jumped from tank to tank finding a clear path to Jackson. She lunged at him and pinned his massive form to the ground. He managed to turn it over and have her down. Lee struggled to get free before finally biting him, he cussed and flung her down on the ground before smashing her chin in with his wrench. She blocked her face but was knocked about a block away. Turning his attention to Hana, his next victim, he ordered his troops to fire every canon they had left at her. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 28, 2010, 08:59:08 pm Hana smiles at being able get a good hit on the colonel. Got ya! Hana watches the colonel face fill with rage and feels the build up power. Well guess I ****ed him off. Hana says staying low. Remaining low to the ground was a good choice as the colonel causes the ground to surge upward. Hana stores the extra scroll and fan, and unrolls the other to reveal the penned arrays on it. She begins activates one of the arrays on the scroll but pauses when she sees that Lee is about to attack the colonel. She rises back to her feet. her the spell when Lee ends up grappling with him. She finally gets a clean shot at the colonel when he knocks Lee off the plateau to land who knows where. That might have knocked Lee out of the fight better check on her when i get a chance. ... ah shi- not again Hana hears the winding of gears as the tanks re-target her. She quickly re-targets her own spell on herself. Need to time this just right. .... frost The tanks fire. STRIKE! Theres a powerful flash of white light and a huge cloud of forms around Hana. The mist glows from with in and the glowing tips of white feathered wings emerge from the cloud. It rises up and delievers a mighty down stroke, fanning way the mist to reveal the nine pillars of ice encasing the 100mm high explosive shells of the tanks that fired on her. Hana rises into the sky carried aloft by her 20 foot span of radiant while angellic wings. She takes off in the direction that Lee got batted off too. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 04:50:45 am As Hana headed off to Lee's direction a massive blast of energy fired from her location. Diesel barely had enough time to jump out of the way, unfortunately most of his soldiers weren't so lucky, if the beam hadn't killed them, the explosive shells it detonated mostly did. Diesel looked to see what fired it and saw Lee, kneeling on the ground, a massive canon plugged into the ground via 6 legs, three on each side. The canon returned to her normal guns and you had a clear view of Lee's face as she stood up. Oh and you could see the rest of her too. Not a pretty sight. Her chin was bleeding, her mouth had quite a bit of blood and her arms were covered in it. Oh, and did I mention the look of pure hate in her eyes and her cloths were torn? Yeah, needless to say she was ****ed. "THAT'LL TEACH YOU TO TRY AND BREAK MY JAW!" she shouted, gritting her teeth after wards. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 11:44:30 am Hana circles higher as she surveys the destruction. Sometimes it really sucks to operate in New Haven. The building inspectors will be busy once again looking over the buildings to make sure there structurally sound. She looks over at downtown. Visible from her high vantage is the lake her brother made there visible at the center of a wide swath of demolished buildings. Those not destroyed in the fight had condemned and torn down. The lake deep enough to sink a football stadium in would cost several tens million to fill with dirt. This mountain would be another very expensive job even before adding the costs to restore the place to a park. Hana snaps out of her musings having not spotted any lingering threats and flies over to Lee. The wings vanish as soon as she hits the ground. The fox presses herself tightly to Lee and clings to the vampiress, the vixen's body trembling from the exertion. Hana cheek rests lightly against Lee chest. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 03:01:15 pm Lee is slightly shocked from Hana's sudden movement. 'Damn.' thought Lee. 'I got my partner resting on my busts and a maniac trying to kill us, this isn't good.' Lee sighed and noticed in the distance Diesel running over to her location. "Screw it, we're out of here." Lee picked up Hana bride style and started off, Diesel not to far behind. "Hana, you alright, you pretty much collapsed...and on an awkward place no less." Diesel was closing in but Lee jumped over him and went to stomp on his head. Diesel blocked the attack and Lee jumped off of him and jumped through the trees. She summoned a horde of undead beings to attack him. Funny part was, the zombie were undead versions of his troops, roughly 20 of them. "Well THIS is what I call irony." said Jackson, readying his wrench. As he was fighting Lee made her escape. "It's alright, we lost him. Now, I'll take you to my apartment, is that okay?" asked Lee with concern in her voice. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 05:19:31 pm Hana lets go when Lee disentangles herself from the vixen. Lee sweeping her off her feet surprises the fox a little with is boldness. She wraps one arm around Lee's shoulder for support. "Just a bit tired. The magic isn't as efficient as my other skills though considerably more powerful than using bow and arrow tricks. ... Though I now have a better understanding how my brother keeps ruining his dresses and skirts so easily." Her kimono was covered in dirt ash and blood, torn at the sleeves and around the legs from here she brushed against something or had a bullet barely miss her. If she thought she had the energy to spare she would clean herself up. "It's alright, we lost him. Now, I'll take you to my apartment, is that okay?" Hana hears Lee say and looks up. Did i drift off a bit? ... The colonel is no where in sight and the sound of combat and emergency vehicles getting farther away. "Good to know." Hana says weakly. "Okay." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 05:42:00 pm Lee smiles. She's glad Hana had no objections, this night had been hard on her too. "Well I'm glad to see you got no objections, though you might not like my apartment room, kinda Gothic. Perfect for me though." Lee reached the building and walked inside. Not many people were up so no one noticed her walking in. She went upstairs to her room and unlocked the door. Once inside she laid Hana down on the couch and locked the door."Anything I can get for you?" asked Lee. Lee's room was actually very big. Almost like a a luxury apartment. It had dark purple walls with black stripes with pictures of chibi skulls on them, her floor was marble with a nice carpet, she had an eat in kitchen, stools and all, a liqueur cabinet with all kinds of wine, a large bathroom with a jacuzzi, one bedroom, a living room with a large TV, couch (which Hana was laying on) and other things, such as chairs, a coffee table etc. Oh and did I mention her bed was a large coffin, yeah, that's kinda important. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 05:54:56 pm Hana decides its finally safe enough once Lee is unlocking the door to her apartment. There is a pulse of energy, and Hana along with her clothes look freshly washed and dried though still torn and cut. She snuggles comfortably onto the couch when she is laid down on it. "Thanks. Juice and a sandwich." Hana says automatically this wasn't the first time she had over exerted herself. The juice would provide a quick boost in energy while the sandwich would provide energy over a longer time. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 06:07:42 pm Lee smiles at Hana. "You got it." Lee goes into the kitchen (which was visible from the living room where Hana was) and checks the fridge. She gets some cheese, some turkey and some lettuce. She puts it on the counter then goes to get some apple juice. Lee then gets a glass, a plate, and some bread. Lee puts the meal together and puts it on a tray. She then gets one of those small fold-out tables and places it in front of the couch before putting the tray down. "Enjoy." she states. After a little while Lee asks, "So Hana, what do you think of my apartment?." obviously trying to start conversation. Meanwhile... Diesel had killed the last of the zombies and almost collapsed to the ground. Finally his ride showed up. "Sorry about it sir." said the pilot. He received only a grunt from Diesel. "Where too?" was this guy stupid? To the HQ of course. "Our base." he said as blankly as possible. "I need to recover." the pilot nodded. "Yes sir." and with that, the engines started up and they took off. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 06:31:49 pm Hana watches Lee walk into the kitchen. The vampire has a good looking body and the outfit she changed into goes a much better job at showing it off than the multiple lose layers of her normal outfit. Hana though weak and tired follows Lee to the kitchen with her gaze. The vixen pulls herself up into a sitting position while Lee is in the kitchen. Hana gaze lingers low on Lee was she returns with the food, roughly centered on Lee buckle. She focuses on the food when Lee sets in down on the tray. Hana carefully picks up the juice with both hands and slowly drinks down half of it. "Its cute yet Goth. Glad you choose not to paint your walls black." Hana responds. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 06:38:54 pm Lee chuckled. "Yeah, I actually thought purple would look cuter." she examined her body and realized how badly she was hurt. "Wow, I took a beating. I better clean myself up. You're welcome to anything in my apartment, what's mine is yours etc. I'm going to go wash up and fix my injuries." says Lee politely. "One last thing though. I only have one bedroom and my bed's literally a coffin. If you want, I can remove the top and it will act like a normal queen size." Lee finished but then realized what she said. "Oh and don't worry, no one died in it. I had it built just for me." she added, smiling nervously. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 07:17:20 pm Hana sighs, "If I had more energy I'll gladly heal you myself." Before picking up the sandwich and taking a bite. She shallows and says, "I don't mind the dark." she says with a smile. "Would you be okay with me sharing your bed?" Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 07:24:18 pm Lee's eyes widen. "Share my bed?" asked Lee, completely thrown off guard. "Umm, I'm not sure..." says Lee, still shocked. "Why would you want to share it with me? I mean, I don't mind sleeping on the couch." Lee would never believe she was about to say this, but Hana was hurt, she couldn't turn her down. "but, if you really want to I suppose I will allow it. Don't try anything though." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 07:35:00 pm "I'm not that kind of girl." Hana says. "Worst I would do is cuddle against you. Besides the shared ambient aura will speed both our recovery." Hana takes another bite of the sandwich. After swallowing the bite she says, "go ahead and clean yourself up we can take about it more afterward if needed." Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 07:45:03 pm Lee slightly smiles. "I have to make sure." said Lee. "I trust you, but I always make sure to lay the ground rules down first, that way no one can say I didn't warn them. You can go in my room if you wish and lay down." Lee points to a small hallway next to the kitchen. "Down the hall to the left." Lee walked into her own bedroom, opening her draws and pulling out her new clothes, pajama pants and shirt, a pair of slippers, a tank top, her underwear, and a few towels. She goes into her bathroom and closes the door behind her, locking it. She turns on the water in the shower and waits, while she starts undressing for her shower. 'Hope Hana's not hurt.', thinks Lee before getting into the shower. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 08:47:34 pm Hana finishes the sandwich and juice before standing. She felt more steady now that she rested and eaten some. She carries the glass and plate into the kitchen. The plate goes into the sink and Hana refills her glass with juice. She wanders into the bedroom with her drink and a small plate to serve as a coaster. Hope Lee doesnt mind Hana thinks as she sheds her ruined kimono. In the buff, she carefully folds up the kimono and obi and places it on top of the dresser next to her glass of juice. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 08:56:31 pm Lee was enjoying her warm shower, the water hitting her pale and smooth skin, washing away the dirt and blood. As most people do in the shower, Lee starting singing, specifically Bring me to life, and very well at that. After she washed herself she starting washing her hair, trying to get all that junk from the night out of her hair, literally. Afterward, she wrapped a towel around herself and on her hair so she could keep it dry. She unlocked the door and poked her head out the window. "Hana is the anything you need?" she asked politely. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 09:12:56 pm "Think I'm okay. Just going to borrow a shirt or something." Hana says opening drawers. She searches for something to long enough to cover her while at being comfortable to wear. She settles for a blue t-shirt that is long enough to cover her long as she doesn't raise her arms or tail too much. She slips it on and goes to examine the bed wondering how to get into it. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 09:20:47 pm "Oh alright then." Lee went back inside and locked the door. She dried herself off and put her clothes on, first her underwear, then her tank top, her PJ pants next, and finally her shirt. She slipped into her slippers and walked into her room. Lee looked over at Hana and smirked. "Problem with my bed?" she asked. Lee simply walked over to it and lifted the top up. She left her slippers on the flood as she got in and covered herself with the comforter. Lee's bed looked fairly normal, red comforter, red sheets, black pillows, and she had a Grim Reaper plushie on it. She settled in nicely before saying, "Whenever your ready." while wrapping her arm around the object. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 09:50:09 pm Hana crawls into bed. Sitting with her back to Lee she slides her her legs under the comforter as she turns her body before sliding under the covers with Lee, so as to not make Lee uncomfortable by showing her flesh. After adjusting the t-shirt more to provide somewhat better coverage she cuddles up to Lee pressing her back lightly against the vamp's side. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 10:13:49 pm Lee cuddled back, her slightly cold body against Hana's warmer one. "Good night Hana." said Lee, smiling. "And thanks for having my back." Lee shifted one last time before closing the cover of the coffin. She closed her eyes and waited to fall asleep. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 10:27:08 pm "My pleasure" Hana says hugging the covers close to her. It was a little strange sleeping with the undead but the smooth flesh and strong aura as comforting. "Good Night" Hana says with a yawn. She falls asleep as soon as she closes her eyes. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Space Grim on October 29, 2010, 10:43:47 pm Lee smiled at the peaceful vixen next to her. 'She must have been tired.' thought Lee. With the soothing darkness she had grown so used to surrounding her and a friend at her side, she closed her eyes and waited for sleep to take her. It didn't take too long, in roughly two minutes Lee was sleeping peacefully, a smile on her pale face. Title: Re: To throw a wrench... Post by: Eight Tail Fox on October 29, 2010, 10:45:57 pm FIN. |
