Loa Blood

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Kryna Ennairy

She takes the large knife and slips it into her boot.

"I'm not much good with a gun either," she says picking up the small side arm, "but they don't have to know that. Grab the grenades too, but be careful the last thing we need is an explosion too close to those tanks. Lets find that bike so I can take it out with the crane the second one has a claw device on it that I can use to suspend the bike in the air and out of reach. Grab the helmet one of us can use the goggles and radio."

She wants to be able to move faster as they make their way around the building but is afraid to demostrate her powers by suddently becoming a foot taller in front of a stranger.

 

[SpectralDragoon]

"Roger that on the explosions thing..."

Dex takes the body armor off of the thug and cuffs his hands behind his back. He takes a moment to shrug his way into the body armor and dons the helmet as well.

"Well... what do you think?"

He stuffs the grenades inside the pockets and holds his arms out for her inspection, flipping the mask of the helmet up so he can see normally.

"I could try to be one of them I suppose, that would throw them for a loop hmm?"

 

[SwampThing]

The Bee looking for Kryna hears someone outside, moving around and talking. Kryna and Dex hear the warehouse door open seconds before the gunman walks around the corner.

 

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Kryna Ennairy

Spotting the warehouse door opening she clasps her hands behind her back as if they were handcuffed, falls to the ground and kicks out at her new partner intentionally missing.

"What do you want with me I didnt' do anything" I say hoping the gray haired man will take the hint

 

[SpectralDragoon]

The first thing through Dex's mind was defintely "what the fuck??"

Quickly he recovers his senses and flips down the visor on the helmet. He leans down and with both hands on her upper arms hauls her up to her feet.

"Ahh, a fiesty one. Better quiet down b'fore you get whats coming to ya bitch," Dex does his best to impersonate one of the Bees.

He shouts to his new "comrade".

"Hey, found her!"

 

[SwampThing]

The Killer Bee rounds the corner, and sees Dex standing in Killer Bee armour, and what looks like two handcuffed captives on the ground.

"What are you wasting your time with these two for? Kill them, and let's figure out how to get that crane working. We need that passage clear before the police show up!"

 

[SpectralDragoon]

"Right, was just about to..."

Dex shoves Kryna aside and holds his hands out, fingers spread wide. His eyes adjust and the image is stored away in his mind as the tips of his fingers emit a flash all at once.

He quickly lunges ahead and tackles the Killer Bee to the ground, trying to sap him with the blunt end of the Uzi.

 

[SwampThing]

The Bee lets out an Aralian curse, clutching blindly at his visor. Dex tackles him to the ground, but his Uzi-blow to the man's head is largely absorbed by the helmet. The two armoured figures roll on the ground. The dazed biker's vison is still blurred, but he reaches for the imposter's throat.

 

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Kryna Ennairy

Quickly fishes out the low powered stunner she has in her bag and holds it ready for the right opportunity. When the real Bee winds up on top of the wrestling match with his hand around gray hair's throat she steps in and presses the stunner to the back of the Bee's neck just between his helmet and body armor. The man goes limp as he is knocked unconcious.

"A bug zapper comes in handy every once in a while," she jokes showing her 'partner' the stunner.

"Lets go get that bike"

Not worrying about using her powers she lets herself grow up to her tallest as they race across the back of the warehouse. Getting to the corner she motions for the imposter Bee to wait as she checks to see if the coast is clear. She discoves that the bike is fortunately still where she last saw it and askes the gray haired guy to watch her back as she maneuvers the crane

 

[SwampThing]

The coast is clear. Dex's helmet crackles in his ear.

"We got all the goods loaded. How's it coming wit dat crane?"

 

[SpectralDragoon]

Dex fumbles for the button for the mic and keys it, "All good and ready over here."

Releasing the mic, he then shoves the fried bug off and gets to his feet. "Good timing that was, I'll give you that."

Dex thinks the woman looks a bit bigger, she's definitely moving quickly as he struggles to keep up... but maybe it's just the night's events that are getting to him.

He looks both ways and readies a smoke grendade.

 

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Kryna Ennairy

Standing behind the warehouse with the guy she's been working with she quickly introduces herself.

"By the way I'm Kryna, good work back there with the bug"

"Thank you, and I'm Dex"

"Well Dex I think we'll a better view from behind one of those cargo containers, we'll be less likely to be spotted too, follow me"

She crouches and flows into the smooth practiced moves of a thief of many years as she darts behind one container after another making sure Dex follows

 

[SpectralDragoon]

Dex does follow, until they reach a good point to stop and take a look.

"Here, I'll give you a boost onto one of the containers. You can take this helmet to see what you can see. Then we'll figure something out. This helmet has a mic, they were calling for the Bee a little while ago but I gave them the all's okay."

He hands her the helmet and then makes a stirrup with his fingers and boosts her up.

 

[SwampThing]

The two remaining bees have all the cannisters loaded onto three bikes. One is staring at the wall of giant containers blocking their exit. The other stares out to the bay. They are clearly waiting for their two companions to move the crates with the crane.

 

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Scrambling up onto the container and laying low on it she hears static in her ear and a voice asking her "When are you going to get the damn crane moving"

Deepening her voice and hoping to sound like a man through the static she says, "Right away I've got the controls open now."

Then she starts moving the 2nd crane so the enormous claw mechanism is directly over the bikes, at least she hopes it's over all 3 bikes. She quickly lowers the claw then closes it, and starts to lift the bikes. But unfortunately she only caught two of the bikes.

"What the hell are you doing!?" she hears in her ear.

She doesn't bother responding as she lifts two of the bikes with eleven of the Loa tanks off the ground. Leaving only one tank with the killer bees. That was still one too many

 

[SwampThing]

One of the Killer Bees unstrapped the last Loa canister from the bike, and hooked it onto the back of his armour.

"You find out what the hell is going on in there with that crane," he said to his companion. "I'll get this tank out on foot."

As one Bee walked towards the warehouse, the other approached the wall of crates. With the dangerous container strapped to his back, he pulled a grappling gun from his belt and prepared to climb over the wall.

 

[SpectralDragoon]

Dex steps out from behind a crate. The Uzi is held at chest level, aimed at the Killer Bee with the grapple gun.


"I suggest you put your hands in the air after you hand over that container of Loa... before I have to see how well I can fire this thing on full auto," Dex says, turning on the bravado once again and tightening his grip on the underside of the Uzi to brace it. He looks back and forth between the two Bees.

 

[SwampThing]

The Bee who had been heading toward the warehouse whips around, his Uzi pointed at Dex. "You shoot, you die next," he exclaims, "Who the hell are you?"

The other gang member slowly puts down his grappling gun and unhooks the cannister from his back. He holds it in front of his chest. "Think about it, whoever you are. Do you really want to shoot me? And risk blowing this whole dock to Dracon?"

The two Killer Bees are totally focused on Dex and his gun, they haven't noticed Kryna on top of the crates.

 

[Lady_Siren]

Nikki hid behind the crate her surveying the situation. Ever since she had been exposed her life hadn't been the same. She had been forced to leave Aralia because as soon as her fathers company saw her powers they had tried to lock her up like some lab rat. Now she watched silently trying to think of her own way to retreive the Loa blood.

 

[SwampThing]

With Damien still unconscious, the two young women look on as Dex stands at a stalemate with the two Killer Bees. All around, the fires are spreading across the dock and up the warehouses. Timbers creak and crumble, the air fills with smoke, and sparks rise towards the 11 canisters of Loa Blood suspended precariously from the crane.

 

[Lady_Siren]

Nikki noticed then a man floating the the water a little distance away. He was unconcious and the water was red from blood. She hesitated glancing once more at the Loa blood. "Ah what the hell" she muttered to herself and took off towards the guy. She dove into the water swimming towards him with even strokes. She reached him just as he was about to go under. She grabbed him under the arms and slowly but surely dragged him back to land. She glanced around but no one seemed to notice them. Acting quickly she checked the man's pulse. It was soft but it was there. She checked his wound which was clean but still bleed. Without a thought she ripped the hem off of her shirt and pressed it to the wound. "Sir? Are can you hear me?"

 

[Democable]

Damien begins to feel Death slowly creep up on him, to think he was going to die in forigen waters and from such a petty wound as this one. he smiled on the inside and waited form the Wrath to take him...

Suddenly Damien is jerked from Death's grip, his body moving someone had him, was it the girl he saw or someone else. he hoped it was the girl he saw before blacking out.

He felt his body hit soild ground, making a thud, then a voice, one that was calm and almost angellic like. he felf something on his side. "Sir? Are can you hear me?"

Damien mubbled something incorhearint and opened his eyes slowly taking in the sight before him.....

[RoyalPurpleVelv]

Kryna Ennairy

Lying low on the cargo container she very carefully aims the side arm at the Bee holding the uzi, she aims for the space between his body armor and helmet. She fires once, he falls the ground. She turns the gun towards the Bee with the tank of Loa to cover for Dex so he can disarm the Bee she shot.

“I’d stay right there If I were you” she tell the man with the Loa tank.”

She’s not terribly worried about the Loa she suspended with the crane, it’s up high enough that the real flames won’t touch it.

 

[SwampThing]

The Killer Bee pointing the Uzi falls, spurting blood from his neck. The other sees that he is outnumbered, and lowers the Loa tank and puts his hands in the air.

Damien sits on the dock next to Nikki, dripping wet and bleeding heavily.

Finally, sirens can be heard above the roar of the flames. But, typical of Argo, the news van arrives before the police do. The van can't get past the flames, and Kryna's barricade of crates, but the cameraman is recording the whole scene.

 

[Democable]

Damien (now fully awake) begins to hear sirens going off and a news van arrive, he lookes to the others around him and yells "People either we stay here and anwser to Arco's finest or we find a way out of here" Damien waited for thier response....
