ITT: We Are Our Action Avatars

-6 soldiers in high tech armor decloak surrounding Toya Longram and Ghost, and a laser sight trains in on each-

Ghost: -spins around and immediately trains his gauss MG on one of the soldiers- Two can play at this game...

Solider : Go ahead and try, we have snipers trained on your position. all we want are the 7 keys in your possession, the choice should be simple. The 7 keys or your lifes and this. *holds up a bottle of wine*

Toya: ...

-Looks at the soldiers, and holds up her hand to Ghost, telling him to stand down-

...That is your final offer? My life, or the keys?

Ghost: -lowers his MG so it's not exactly pointing at any of the men, but rather... a wall behind them-

Solider : We were told to negotiate if need be, but one thing is certain the 7 keys in your posetion are non negotiable.

Ghost: ...mother fucker. I see what you did, broker. You let us have that information for free so you could take the keys from us.

Toya: ...Well, then the choice is clear.

-Smiles cruelly and mockingly-

I choose to ensure you lose. Thus, I win!

-At this point...the bookstore seems to dissolve. Pieces of paper with but single words on them form from tiny bits of the bookstore and fly away into the sky, spreading out over the city before bursting up into flames and turning to ash that dissolves to atoms. Eventually, even Toya herself dissolves as thus, pages with fleeting memories jotted down flying away. Visibly mingled among the flying pieces of paper include pictures of each of the keys of the great game, each of them ...until...all that stands in the spot where Toya Hachijo and her bookstore once stood is a strangely dressed woman◊ who vaguely looks like Toya, holding a book-

???◊: ...And so, it is done. Toya Hachijo...is no more. And neither are those keys. She has taken them to a place where no mortal may ever find them, no matter how they try...

-Turns on her heel-

Now, if you'll excuse me, gentlemen, I have a stray to find, before she does something rather mean-tempered to a man who is heavy with sins. Of course, you're free to shoot me, if you please...but...lot of good that will do, shooting a Witch.

-Starts to walk off-

Solider : So you figured out our bosses plan? ...You Bitch! Every one open fire!

-the 6 soldiers respond with what they were trained, force... these are not the brokers main agents, they are the muscle it is there only response-

Ghost: Yes. And there you go. You might as well go home, the keys are gone. -silently, over com, he attempts to contact Six, before cloaking-

Six: -currently firing the DMR in the rifle range- Huh?

Ghost(COM): Six, we need help. I'm being held at gunpoint by... six men. Three snipers with them. You think you'll be able to infil and help us? Shit, they're shooting!

Six: I'll do my best. -Six puts the DMR on her back- Hey Terra, you have any orbital drop features?

-At this point, a cruel laugh fit for the offspring of Sauron and Cruella de Ville erupts from the Witch as she continues to walk off, each of the guns of the enforcers somehow malfunctioning to the point where they explode at the exact same time. The bullets seem to only barely miss her, one vaguely scratching her cheek-

Longram: "You might as well forget this." *He looks at the gun exploding* "What the hell?!"

Soldier : *there guns explode* We wont get paid like this, at the very least we bring in the robot as a trophy for the bosses. *one of them throws an EMP grenade where ghost was*

Soldier 2 : @ Longram : We wont fall for tricks, and that is all this is.

Longram: "!" *He kicks the grenade back at the soldiers, draws out his XM 9 LAEAC, then fires at the soldiers. During that, he sends a distress signal to his brigade*

-Ghost gets out of range... but the EMP grenade disables his right arm-

Ghost: Damn... nothing's coming from the right arm. Wiring's fucked. At least the... -Ghost decloaks, the EMP having affected his cloaking device. He immediately takes out the KS-23 and one-handedly blasts the guard closest to him- (via COM) Six, they've got EMP 'nades, get down here!

Six: I'm trying! I have to find what this rust-bucket uses for orbital drops!

-the soldiers are EMP'd there stealth suits malfunction and they are electrocuted, a shadow figure walks out of the shadows slowly clapping-

-the blessing uses "Jump out or take the shuttle" for orbital drops-

Witch:-Stops, turns, and looks at the clapping person with passive interest-

Yes, it was a good show. I agree.

-Slowly claps as well-

Ghost: -aims the shotgun at the shadowy figure- And who might you be?

Longram: *He aims his gun at the figure* "Identify yourself!"

Saru, NOIR-01, and Quincy: *They come in to back Ghost and Longram up*

-Marston enters the scene, his M4 loaded and ready to fire-

-Six finds her way to the shuttles, jumps in one, and gets it to fly out. It's still going to be a little bit of a wait until she breaches atmosphere.-

Shadow Figure : I was the one in charge of those brain dead morons... good job, but do you really think you have won?

Ghost: Frankly, I couldn't care less. Seven of the eight keys have just been sent off to a place where no mortal can find them. The Great Game has more or less stopped. -tosses the shotgun into the air and pumps it, before tossing it back into the air and gripping it- We win.

Longram: "Not really but we won!"

NOIR-01: *He looks at the figure* "Huh, do I know you?"

edited 28th Aug '11 5:56:26 PM by MrKirb

Witch: Depends. I made sure to deliver those keys to a place that doesn't exist in this multiverse, where no mortal can find them, and that was my sole victory condition. So, by that definition, yes, I do believe I have won.

Shadow Figure : Sure you won, the game is over... But you pissed off my boss with that stunt... the war has just begun.
