Day 162, closed first, then open. | Come get in more trouble with Colin!
Who: Colin, Paarthurnax, and others later
Open: Closed, then open
What: Colin wants something dead, and he wants a team to do it
When: Day 162, after Rin's been stabilized and things have settled. (Gosh, sound familiar?)
Where: The Dragonfield, then the Monument as he looks to grab people
Format: Any
PAARTHURNAX!
[The urgency in Colin's tone was evident. He'd taken another bath to get the blood off him, but that scent was unmistakable.]
I need you, we need to hunt!
[Now that Colin had enlisted his air support, it was time to get a strike team. He had no snacks for bribery this time, just an eerie look of serenity on his face as he headed to the monument to track down some heavy hitters. He snagged his amplifier from his lab, so that when he speaks, he's not going to be hard to hear.]
HEY! I need our big guns out here, post-haste! We've got a mission, search and destroy time!
[Dare you approach?]

[He's already waiting on one of the small hills, drawn up as properly as he can be and his eyes settled on the shards of land in the distance.]
Name it, then.
[He doesn't ask if things have been settled with Rin and Night- Colin wouldn't be here if they hadn't been in one way or another.]
no subject
[He approaches Paar's hill without hesitation.]
I'm suspecting it's a Gasfella, I haven't had a chance to debrief Rin yet, but all the signs are pointing to something big with a bladed weapon. That limits our targets considerably.
Are you willing to be my air support? When this thing dies, I don't want it to have time to wonder what's happening to it.
no subject
[There's no hesitation, just the steady rhythm that Paarthurnax's voice always seems to hold. But there's no mistaking the predatory way his body shifts.]
Once you know of the creature, tell me and I could find it for you in short time.
[Out of everyone in the Bastion, he knows he's the best suited for going long distances the quickest.]

@ the Monument
[Raimundo walks toward the guy with the megaphone-thing. The --Xiaolin-- Heylin Dragon isn't going to pass this up. He spoke with Rin after it all happened and it isn't hard to guess what they might be hunting.]
Mind if I tag along?
Re: @ the Monument
[Colin grins at Raimundo.]
If you can dish out the damage and have no problem doing it, I want you along. ... But we're not killing everything. We have one target. Maybe, MAYBE a small group.
You good for that?
@ the Monument
Name's Raimundo. And if you want damage, I can give it. I am the Xiaolin...or Heylin Dragon of the Wind. I got the skills. Just tell me what to hit and I'll hit it hard.
[Rai knows he isn't as hard a hitter as Clay is but he can dish out the punishment. After all, he did take out Kimiko and Clay at the same time with his element. It's be easier if he had some Wu but he's fresh out of those. He'll make due though.]

Count me in.

[He nods gratefully at Ippo.]
I'm going to want to leave sooner as opposed to later, but we're not going to be leaving just yet. I need to get a little more information before we strike. I don't want to hit the wrong target and make an enemy we don't need.
Believe me... if we hit the wrong guy doing this, our posse is going to have a posse coming after it. And that's gonna be bad news for all of us.
no subject
I understand, but when we do find it...I'm gonna use these to tear it to shreds. I don't wanna be able to recognize it.

[ The wind on the Bastion hadn't given her more than a few bits of voice, a snippit of a girl broken in another's arms.
It was enough to have Chime flying to visit Rin, and for Tris to be crawling with some minor lighting. She has a very special spot of hatred for things that kill people - particularly those that she knows. Things that shake up her home, whether its somewhere she's staying - or all they have left. ]
I can help with both. And I can ask if Rin would like it to rain or something, because sometimes feeling like the sky is crying too makes people feel better.
no subject
[He nods, and then he smiles a little sadly.]
I'm grateful for the help, and... I suspect Rin will be grateful for it too. She's been through too much, and this... Well. I don't know if I have the words to say more.

I wish to join the hunt.

[Colin nods at Alucard.]
With apologies for the speciesist generalization... vampiric power is an object of horror stories for a reason, and I will be glad to have that turned on our enemy.
This... creature needs to be taken down hard and fast.

It's on his way home that he hears Colin's voice.]
What do you need?
no subject
I need people who are able and willing to hit a target fast and hard.
And capable of holding back if needbe. We don't need to go on a killing spree. We need to bring down the RIGHT person...

She bares her teeth, looking up at Colin. "Destroy what?"

He crouches next to her. "We've had run-ins with things out on the Skyway before," he adds. "Some things don't want peace..."

You're going after the thing that got Night, aren't you?
[Her voice is too flat for it to sound much like a question.]
no subject
[Colin nods in confirmation.]
Seem to have plenty of interest, too. I guess everyone can come together if they get riled up enough about something.
[Colin smirks slightly, though there's no pleasure to it.]
I'm gonna want to leave some people behind to defend this place while we're out, but we've still got room for a few more people. If you want to come along, I won't turn you away.

But her eyes have dried for now when Colin rushes towards the monument, yelling about destroying, looking far too peaceful. She catches bits and pieces of the other conversations: they're talking about vengeance, killing, executions, justice, all in the same breaths—and it's just a Gasfella, but the ideas all ring too familiar, and she's left frozen and fearful.]
H-hey, don't you think we're sounding like some kind of mob here..?
no subject
Yes, sadly.
[He shakes his head.]
But right now, we've got a major threat on our hands. And we need to get this creature while it's injured. Anything that can take down Rin and Night at the same time is not something I want to give the chance to recover.

I don't... I don't know if I can really help...
[His voice sticks in his throat. He has questions for people, but he knows that now isn't the time to get answers.]
no subject
[He offers the younger man a warm grin.]
In fact, I daresay we probably have enough people now to handle this. I'd feel better if some of our stronger fighters stay behind, now.
This might be a trap, or a lure to get us to over-commit forces outside of the Bastion. I want some good, strong guards here, just in case.
Think you can handle watching over this place? Keeping it safe?
