Mission One

Pius saw the other village to the west and tried to see if anyone was there with his Semblance. Before he could even get far from the village he and the other team had landed near, he was knocked out of the sky by a shard of ice. So now he was slowly picking himself up from the ground, groaning as he regained his focus and checked his Aura.

Still have most of my barrier, but that was still a good hit in... Behind the helmet, Pius glared at the woman before him, answering with his own altered voice.

"Are you responsible for what happened here?" He hoped his team and the others weren't far behind. This woman did not seem like someone he could take on alone.

Silvia was dumfounded for a good minute by what she saw. She'd never seen destruction on this scale. While still in a daze she looked around the ruins, searching for anything that could give this scene some glimmer of hope. After another minute of silence she contacted her team.

"SIGL 4... Is there anything I can do?" she asked.

Her wings were folded in, her hands outstretched purposeless. She adjusted her glasses blankly.

"She didn't come alone. Be ready and keep an eye out for her allies, 4" Yun replied.

Conversation

Noa frowned at Al's words. Yeah, right. Right.

"No racist shit, Ah got it. Ain't his fault 'nyways, we born tha way we are. Just how it is."

It was rather discouraging, she knew. Being partnered up with somebody who was stubborn as an ox and more crooked than some lawmen wasn't easy. But at the same time, she wouldn't cut Grigori much slack outside of this mission. If he couldn't deal with her when she was treating him with kid gloves, she'd have too much contempt for him to ever be reliable.


Mission 3

"Talkin'? Who has time fer dat?" Noa almost spat, cracking her neck in protest. "We're gonna hafta bust dem heads in soon, so get ready. Talk is cheap, life is cheaper."

Mission 4

Thinking as quickly as he could, Glen began sprinting towards the source of the missiles, dirk in hand. As he ran, the Highlander began scanning the surrounding area for wherever the hell he was being shot at from.

"Well, get in line." Hope replied back to Glen's furious declaration with her own calculated brand of anger. "Whoever gets to him first gets 100 Lien, how about that? That's about as much he's worth now."

"It isn't Shane!" Imuka yelled back to hope, giving her wrists a flick into the direction the missiles were coming from, not even bothering with drawing her main weapon when speed was of the essence. Launching the small rockets she keeps hidden up her sleeve, she quickly closed her eyes and began to guide them twords the incoming ones.

Ai grit her teeth and broke out of Charisse's grasp, giving Charisse a light push to move out of the way of the missiles.

"He better hope it isn't 'cause if it is I'm gonna come in there and slap his face in!" she said.

There wasn't much to grapple on in the immediate vicinity, so Ai ran on foot closely behind Glen. She quickly caught up to Glen and passed him with the aid of her boots.

"Immy, if you can back us up we can try to get closer—"

Conversation

Alfred nodded after Grigori's responded, and stared briefly at Noa, slightly surprised at how cooporative she is and that she's willing to put a limit on her aggressiveness.

"Alright, good then we have an agreement. Come on, let's go, we have a mission to complete"

Mission Three

Al pinched the temple of his nose as Noa claimed what their course of action should be. He gave her a slightly menancing look. "Hell no, we're not causing an incident here Noa, stay down on that shit. As much as I want to stab everyone that could possible be on that person's side. Let's wait 'till we have a useable justification for that, better for all of us. I'm gonna talk with that douchebag. I'm the leader, so I'm the most fit to do it"

The knight said his last sentence with slight hesitation, he didn't really believe that he was that fit to do a talk with Alexandros, not in his current condition, his mind's too hazy he was not focused, but even then trusted himself as a negotiator even in these conditions than the entire group he was with.

He faced the whole group, inspecting Carol for a few seconds and talking to her in his usual stoic voice.

"I'm going to talk with them. You all stay close to me and be ready for anyhing. Don't engage in hostilities unless prompted to. Alright?"

"Come on, let's do this, the more we bring the fuc-bastard down in this way with less consequences for others the better"

Jack charged past Rheia, leaping to meet the crowd as he swung, elbowed, kicks and general attacked everything around him, trying to shove into th center of the crowd, where he could hopefully do the most damage. "These guys are cannon fodder! Come on, let's end this and go do the thing already!"

Mission 1

"No Pius, I'm sure she's the one who delivers puppies and rainbows to these here impoverished villages." Medus answered in response to his team leader' question. The rocker stepped forward, Nightshaker balanced across his shoulders. "See it was bothering me, because even Grimm attacks tend to leave survivors, and there are frequent Hunter patrols through this area, but this makes things clear."

He shifted to a combat stance. "So, let's not take too long here: What's your name, Who do you work for and we can get on with the fight." Medus was planning to shoot her as soon as she started talking.

Mission 4

"Aw, what? I'm pulling you all back into the hug once were done here."

Charisse sighed and pulled put her sickles. She flipped them around, connected them at the hilt, then transformed them into her bow.

She drew the shining green holographic bowstring back, eyeing the missiles in an attempt to find what could potentially be called a cluster. Once she found it, she released the string and fired a single plasma bolt directly into it.

Hopefully that would cause a chain reaction.

Mission One

Alexia had made her way to her partner's side, clad in her own armor and helmet.

She warily drew Serena, but said nothing. The armored woman was dangerous, and her every instinct told her that they were outmatched in a straight fight. The glowing sapphire in particular worried her.

The woman just snorted at Pius's and Yun's questions.

"Good grief, what kind of stupid questions are those? What does that school of yours teach you anyway?"

"Also, I'm frankly insulted that you think I'm going to monologue like a movie villain. I'm not going to rant about my evil plans, sorry."

"What I will say is that you can call me Aquaria, and I'm going to kill you so I can get on with my life."

Alexia felt a sudden chill. The sapphire on Aquaria's gauntlet started glowing brighter.

There was something unnatural in the air, and it made the princess feel ill.

The armored woman raised her trident and spoke a single word.

"Sugo."

And at that moment-!

The very air seemed to split apart, a hole in reality....a portal.

And from the portal came Grimm. Beowolves, Ursas, Nevermores...and two Goliaths.


Mission Three

"You got it, boss." Carol replied, saluting Alfred semi-sarcastically.

"Approach in three minutes."

Minutes later, Alfred stood on top of the hill as the other three waited somewhere close by.

The knight would see the vehicles approaching. True enough, there were three of them.

Large transports slowly moving through the path, and its escort. Robot guards marched alongside them. The vehicles had no wheels or threads, instead hovering slightly above ground.


Mission Four

"Shaney, stop! It's Beth!" The youngest Weapon Girl screamed, and at once the missiles stopped.

Something descended from the sky, a robot shaped like a wyvern, a dark grey construct with glowimg red eyes. Missile launchers adorned its wings and its mouth seemed to host a Dust Cannon.

Shane Mauve's, Weapon Epsilon, voice came from the steel beast.

It didn't seem to want to lower its weapons.

"What do you want?!"

Mission One

Aw, hell

Medus stared at the portal in front of him. And the Grimm pouring through. Well, at least they're all in one place....and that gem.

"Fire on the portal, Grimm dissolve on death but they still need time to do that, kill enough of them and we can plug up the hole for a little. And someone destroy the gem, she's using it as a focus, I know someone who uses the same technique."

As for you, you monstrous bastards, I'm gonna play you a little tune. The rocker thought to himself as he took a deep breath and started glowing bright silver before playing a powerful song which unleashed a torrent of sound waves at the portal.

Mission Four

A few months ago, Glen probably would have been mildly terrified of the monstrous machine before him, but the Highlander had grown accustomed to that sort of thing over the past few months.

Standing his ground defiantly, Glen barked "Right now? I want tae talk tae you in person you damn coward! Stop hidin' behind these infernal machines, I can promise you that we'll nae lay a hand on you."

Vilians...why do they have to be such dicks about it? Whatever...might as well try and release some steam!

Yun rolled his shoulders and drew his weapon in saber form. "3. Fire on our position and work on the Nevermores." He ordered. "4, see if you can thin the crowds a bit. 2, you're with me on frontline duty. We're going after the gem."

He then turned to Alexia. "I probably should have asked earlier, but is there anything you want to add? This is a joint mission."

Village Ruins - Mission One

"3 to Actual," Geki blurted into Yun's comm, referring to him by the standard Valoran code. "Say again, confirm fire on your position." Unsurprisingly, the young man hesitated in the face of dropping high explosive rounds on the heads of his fellow students.

But the shrieking Nevermores overhead drew his attention and he cursed. Geki returned the fire round and selected airburst rounds, of which he didn't carry near enough. "Priority on Nevermores. Beginning response."

Before all else, before the slow barrage of destructive flaming death slammed into the airborne Grimm, Geki donned on the war mask of his illustrious ancestor, Benkei Shirobara, a prayer to the warrior on his lips.

He prayed he would live up to his name.

"I'm gonna hold you to that!" Ai yelled to Charisse.

The missiles had stopped, but now they were facing Shane's new toy. "Sorry Immy, but I guess it was Shane after all," Ai said.

She stepped forward.

"Right." She nodded to Glen and then faced Shane's wyvern robot. "We're here because apparently you've had a run in with some of our good friends from Arcana."

She holstered her yo-yos into her leg straps and showed her empty hands.

"Now let's put down those guns and talk inside?" she said. She looked up and down the wyvern robot. "It seems like you've been busy making more big unwieldy robots that aren't practical for general use?"

"Well, thanks kindly Beth." Ayers tilted his head around to tip his hat to her. "'Course y'all dint really need to, we had it unner control. Now, uh, Shane..." Ayers swung himself back around to look at the monster before them. "Lemme be the first one to say it don't make no difference whether y'all wanna use yer big ol' machine or yer own dang body to talk to us. I figger I'm prolly the first person to talk about how technology makes our lives easier." He clanged his hands together as illustration. "We wanted to check up on you. How's it goin', pardner?"

Mission One

Ieria felt a small pit in her stomach at seeing the number and quality of Grimm that came through. She shook her head and steeled herself for a fight, remembering that she had forbade herself from using her semblance as she looked to the fight. She knew the others would lay down a suppressing fire, so she took it upon herself to keep any Grimm away from them that got close, striking them down with a flurry of claws and kicks, backed by shotgun blasts and flames.

Mission Two

Oscar was visibly angered by the words he heard over the din of battle. "You know...Percival is far nicer than I am." He said softly as a black armor began to form over his body. "I don't normally take my opponents alive, you know...but I'll have to make an exception." He growled as he barreled toward the nearest Minor Arcana, using his engine to enhance his charge, a veritable wall of steel.

"Understood, Actual. 3, this is 2 confirming; fire on our position."

Sechs knew that he probably didn't need to confirm with his partner the plan of action but shot off the scroll message nonetheless, Schwartzwulf growling into action as he took up position next to Yun.

Gotta say, Medus knows how to set a mood

Sechs would never really understand the musical tastes of others but appreciated that this....whatever it was, was appropriate.

Mission One - Village Ruins

"3 to all points, firing!" With a whoompf, his airburst round hit the air and turned one Nevermore into paste, sending bits of the avian Grimm shrieking into two of its fellows, wounding them and making them wheel. More constituent pieces rained onto the ground-based monsters, scattering their approach.

Now came the difficult part. Geki grabbed one of his Earth Dust rounds and lobbed it towards the last location of his team mates, the shell whistling towards them.

Mission One

"Nothing to add, the plan is sound." Alexia replied to Yun, shaking her head to shake off the ill feeling.

"I'll be at the frontlines, protect you while you go for the gem."

And with that the princess jumped into the fray, heading for the thickest wave of Beowolves in order to draw them towards her.

Meanwhile, Medus's sonic attack seemed to stun and hurt the Grimm emerging from the portal but did nothing to the portal itself. One of the Goliaths bellowed loudly and tried to stomp on him.

The Nevermores wised up and stayed away from Geki, preferring to buffet Pius and Ieria with razor-sharp feathers.

As for Aquaria herself, she seemed to just stand there smugly...until she noticed something that made her shake with laughter.

She raised her trident again and a small vortex of water engulfed her....only for her to reappear right in front of Geki.

"Ohhh....what do we have here? Benkei's mask, is it? Then shouldn't you be serving me? After all...I am directly descended from Ragnelle Silvaria Vale!" the masked woman proclaimed, tone amused.


Mission Four

The metallic wyvern didn't budge, nor did it lower its weapon. And at that moment, two more of the steel beasts descended from the sky.

"Why are you here?! I already left you fuckers alone! What do you want from me?! Are you going to attack me? I'll kill you first!"

Shane sounded tense, paranoid even.

"I'm not letting you anywhere near me as long as I don't know you're going to attack! You're not getting into my base!" he snapped at Ai's words, sounding very much like a cornered animal.
