Korinas Big Game Hunt 240905


(Korina's big game hunt)

[Wed Sep 4 2024]

In The Forest

It is night, about 67F(19C) degrees, Ankle high mist flows through the area. There is a new moon.

Fayad says "So damn dark.."
Korina sneaks up behind Fayad and whispers, "Boo," right in his ear.

Korina blinks at Ash.

Ash sniffs the air, nodding at a few of the others.

Morgan blinks. "Oh my clothes..." She taps her chin and shrugs.

Ash says "There it is...."
Ash says "Morgan, Korina... Glad to see y'all."
Morgan(wolf) makes a wolf noise. Who knows what it is. Maybe she's agreeing? Maybe she's disagreeing. Maybe she's a wolf.

Fayad stands with his spear clenched tightly, expression low to the ground as he avoids making eye contact or drawing any attention to himself.

Selina stands casually to the side, cladd in her ice armor she has made. But she keeps her eyes moving behind the visor, seeking whatever might have attracted so many out to fight it.

Ash says "So, a demon, t looks like."
Ash says "Red skinned. Are we ready?"
Korina lets out a yawn, bleary-eyed, as she blinks off into the dark forest.

Ash glances around, looking confused as others mill around.

Korina says, with a sniff, "I guess it got scared."
Ash says "...where'd everyone go?"
Isaiah says "I see what happened..."
Selina says "Not sure where it went..."
Fayad says "Can you pick me up at 34 guardian lane?"
Ash says "...I thought we were just going to go north to where we saw it last, then look around."
Selina says "I think it got away..."
Ash says "Did we get up to the trail?"
Isaiah says "No trail- this log cabin spooked it away. It's over."
Ash says "That sucks, I was really hyped."
Morgan(wolf) nods gently in agreement

Fayad says "Nevermind, I just shadow-walked home."
Fayad says "If you're coming in, come in. WEst."
Morgan(wolf) makes a series of very communicative barks and growls

Isaiah says "Same... It's alright, though."
Ash says "Wild? Or getting wild in your bed?"
Fayad sits down, twitching spasmodically, his face a rictus of hatred as he stares out the window.

Selina says "Need help getting back?"
Morgan(wolf) peers about and then shakes her little wolf head.

Morgan says "I can fly back, unless you wanted me to accompany."
Ash chuckles, saying, "Where's my confident, arrogant boyfriend who promises that he's the best at everything? That any time with me *promises* to be heaven?"

Isaiah says "We're fine. Walking back from a big game hunt."
Selina says "Up to you. I'm flying back to the western forest."
Chara steps in from the door looking over the tower mumbling to herself "Fuck Freya that bitch.." loudly under her breath before clenching her hands and relaxing them looking over to Fayad "I am Chara Rose, nice to meet you."

Isaiah says "It may have been Morgan- she was there."
Morgan says "Well, perhaps I can fly with you for a time?"
Fayad turns his head immediately towards Chara. "Fayad al-Munaqadh. What has she done to you?", he inquires, with a level of curiosity bordering on the mad.

Chara pauses looking abit confused as she is asked that "I.. dont know.. I dont really even know her. Just really hate that name right now..." she says with a small frown on her lips

Fayad puts a hand to his face, exhaling like a steam cooker releasing a gout of air. "You're angelblooded, aren't you," he mutters.

Morgan(finch) peers about, curious, hopping on her feet after Selina.

Chara looks over to Fayad giving a nod "Oh yeah! How'd you know?" she asks looking down at her armor "Is it.. the armor? I guess the aesthetic could be representative of a angel?"

Fayad says "It's that you wanted to join my fucking crusade the instant you walked in. Just got word that I have a warrant out. Again. RIGHT after I *STOPPED* upkeeping the hex. For fuck's sake, Emmanuel. Is there any reason I shouldn't make a new one at three AM?"
"..Yeah, she was getting my message a bit late." Emmanuel informs Fayad, "But at least it has not been approved yet, hm? She isn't going to do it either."

Chara raises a brow at the conversation between the two "Who is she..?" she looks over to Fayad "Also.. whats your name?"

"'She' is being Freya, hm? Fayad's favourite person." Emmanuel intones dryly. Dryly enough that it's pretty clear there isn't any love lost between she and Fayad.

Fayad frowns. "I said it. Too foreign for you, I guess. My name is Fayad al-Munaqadh."

Fayad says "It's arabic. Egyptian. I was born here but my family was from Cairo."
Chara says "Oh.. as I said earlier. Stoned.."
"So, then, hm? What else happened between us entering here, and you scurrying away, mon amie?" Emmanuel asks of Fayad then, before starting to offload items onto Chara, "Here, your supplies."

Fayad says "Not much."
Fayad says "I went to see a big monster in the woods but Selina and the Hand were there so I just left."
"Reasonable." Emmanuel allows with a cluck of the tongue.

Chara gives a smile putting the objects in on her handy dandy utility belt "Thank you. That should make next operation alot easier."

"Oui, it should." Emmanuel notes back to Chara with a little smile, "But we will also need to have you shore up your close quarters, hm? Operations are nearly always devolving into fist fights."

Fayad crosses his arms. "Fuck's sake, I thought maybe I could finish you off with how tired you were but you nearly took my head off in one shot," he complains. "If I'm in melee I'm already fucking dead."

Fayad says "As you could see in that Gharrek operation! Four infantrymen and I was gone."
Fayad says "Even with Euphemia and my wolf."
Chara gives a now as she pulls out a black, 21" collapsibleb atom, flicking it to its full length. "Was thinking swords but.. I saw this and thought it sort of complete the whole.. look. And I dont really like police either it just.. sits with the armor if you know what im making." She says putting on her mask as well for Emmanuel to see"

Chara chuckles "Angelborn with a baton is starting to sound like the start to a scene at the succubus."

"..Cool," Emmanuel decides upon after a few moments of consideration, before affording Chara a mild smirk at her comment, "Ah, you are not wrong. I think I spied Harriet there once with a riding crop."

Chara reaches up with her glove to rub at her eyes "So.. whats the plan?"

"Well, we could spar, but I thought you were saying you were too fucked up?" Emmanuel suggests in response to Chara, glancing aside to Fayad as he speaks to check if he'd understood right, "Or we can just, you know, talk?"

Chara gives a shrug as she stands there "Oh okay, thats fine. I thought we were going to do that so I came in wearing all this." she says motioning "But I am indeed out of it."

Fayad shrugs. "If we're going to fight in my house it might as well be in the ritual floor."

"Let's dance, then?" Emmanuel suggests with a shrug, making to follow Fayad.

Fayad taps up on the roof in three certain places, a ladder opening up from the ceiling. He climbs up.

Chara says "He might not be far off either..."
"You are both welcome to strike at me, oui?" Emmanuel points out to Fayad and Chara, as he checks over his own gear, "You are wanting to be hit harder, hm? To learn the most."

Chara says "Alright.. ready?"
Chara looks over to someone

Fayad says "Suppose I am. I don't think it'll go too well, though."
Chara looks over to Emmanuel

Emmanuel immediately starts by fighting dirty. He dips low, sweeping someone' leg out from beneath her before darting over closer to Fayad. His axe is raised in an arching uppercut, looking to knock the poor man right on his arse- but he manages to deflect the blow, eliciting a smirk from Emmanuel, "Tres bien!"

Fayad frowns intently as he tries to concentrate on the battle. As he bats away Emmanuel's axe with the haft of his spear, he engages in a spark-casting duel as he presses back and forth, trying to get the footwork proper to prevent Emmanuel from getting in on him.

Chara looks pretty confused as she is tripped "Hey! We are on the same team here." she says as she struggles to get back up from he weight of the armor, getting barely to a crouch before firing a shot over at Fayad which goes wide

"Non!" Emmanuel reminds Chara as he allows Fayad's final attack there to effectively push him back, and toward her. He twists at the waist, using the force to swing his axe- and only cutting air, "The two of you should be attacking me."

Chara didnt seem to get the memo in time as she lets another burst rip at Fayad "You? Oh. Shit."

Fayad keeps up with Emmanuel as Emmanuel retreats, snarling as he moves his head to the side. "Don't you DARE fucking shoot off a gun in my OWN FUCKING HOUSE, you could take out a window or a reagant or worse! You want to fucking summon a demon? Huh? Is that what you want?", he browbeats Chara, extremely pissed, as he makes small jabs towards Emmanuel with the spear.

"Hey, hey, language!" Emmanuel chirps back toward Fayad in disapproval, and shakes his head, "There is no need for this, hm?" There's an attempt to discipline the shorter man then, as Emmanuel swings his axe around in a two-handed strike, only for it to be caught by the spear again. He skips backwards then, one, two, three hops, noting, "Sometimes it can be good to move after hitting, hm? If your opponent is wanting to be clever, and use a trick or a gadget, or an ability? They will to do it before they move. Sometimes they forget."

Chara gives a grunt as she stand there now crossing her arms "I literally have no idea how to do anything close range.."

That warning? The one given by Fayad It wasn't for nothing it seems, as one of the potions lying around the place falls from it's shelf, and crashes on the floor. After a few moments it starts to spasm, and then rises up into the form of a potion-monster!

Fayad says "Oh my fucking god, what IS that."
Fayad moves away, defending himself.

"I do not know, but it is not friendly!" Emmanuel claims as he rushes in to strike the weird potion monster with his axe.

Emmanuel follows up that first swing with another.

Chara charges up and pitifuly slaps it with her baton cause the system wont let her use any melee disciplines

Fayad jabs his spear into the congealed sludge, swearing to himself.

"Hiyah!" Emmanuel blurts out as he strikes at the strange potion monster once more, only to find parts of it growing harder and deflecting his blow, "Fayad? What is this?"

Chara pulls out some pepperspray dousing the abominations face with it

Fayad shrugs. "I don't know, I think the minerals in the bullet are being used by the fucking...ugh, does it matter? Just disrupt its physical form enough and it'll stop!"

"Nyeeeh!" Emmanuel yells out as he throws his back into his next strike, the axe-head burrowing itself into the potion-monsters strange flesh, and threatening to tug the weapon out of Emmanuel's hands, "Hey! C-.. Hey!" He complains, tugging and sweating, "I'll disrupt your physical form!"

Chara pulls away not able to do anything significant against the beast

Fayad jabs his spear directly into the potion's mass, dissolving it.

"Hiyah!" Emmanuel joins in with Fayad's spear poking assault, raising his axe and then driving it into the shoulder of the ooze, or at least, where a shoulder would be if it was a person. "Shoot it, shoot it!" He calls back to Chara.

Chara taps on her earpiece "What the fuck, I cant even call Olivia for help." she looks over at Emmanuel confused "I was told to stop shooting!"

Fayad stabs at the potion again, confused why it hasn't died yet.

"I just.." The terrible, hideous monster gurgles out, "..wanted to-.. live." With that said, it's physical form fails, and it explodes like a popped balloon, spraying cherry flavoured potion all over the room, and Fayad, Chara and Emmanuel.

Fayad's tower is now fucking haunted by ghosts thanks.

OOC - Lesson learned.
