Wonderful Days [Skirmish] -Operation DOWNFIRE pt. 2

suptg.thisisnotatrueending.com/archive/48120569/

Mission Report: The Investigation in the downtown district yielded to confirm for suspicious activity lead to an outbreak of Salamanders to be discovered. Meanwhile, activity is beginning to brew in the "park" district below the downtown supersection.

> Players already deployed remain on the field.
>KNIGHT AND LUPE may Deploy.
> New players may Deploy under the new meta:Student [MLZ]

[Millizens] are bystanders, or technical students that have undergone basic training and have normal stats, however each [MLZ] has varying stats depending on which country they are from. In this case Ral Gran academy Millizens have the following base stats:

+2hp [3]Mov [2]Act [15]acc [15]int

>Bystander: Millizens may spawn within any friendly building. Upon reporting in. If they die, they cannot respawn through cloning as their combat license gets revoked. [Unless they are registered with a meta post battle]

EMERGENCY KIT RESPONSE. During a state of open emergency, Millizens may access an emergency panel or request a kit drop by air or from a local officer.

Millizens after the mission may gain a meta along with the EXP and Zenny that comes along with completing a mission. Millizens that retain their meta however will mean that dying once becomes permanent .

Due to some technical issues, game start is delayed by some hours. I will instead re-issue an action phase. Those who have not deployed or are thinking of deploying may find the time to do so now. Characters whose presence can't be confirmed may be botted to withdraw. The outcome of this mission is dependent on the amount of civilian casualties both student and otherwise.

Ah! They let you out of the hospital, Clyde? Brilliant! I've got a thing for you. A thing! I can't find that slacker Chuck, so you're my number two marvelous magical manfriend.

That came out odd.

Anyway, get your gear and tag-tag along! I've got a bubbling feeling that something magical is about to go down. And I haven't had the time to figure out the intricacies of magical construction myself; I may need help for a certain "closing down a giant rift and preventing a malady" issue.

And some... other stuff.

I'm about 80 or 90% sure there was a post in the last thread that said everyone that was hospitalized was cleared to check out of the infirmary. You might want to double check that though.

"Wooh!"
Liren checked her mask again. Somehow, it kept sliding down to block half her face and obscuring the rubble.
"Ah, breathe in that whole-some downtown air, ladies! I can just about smell the ice-cream and Team Dragon's incompetence both! SO let's roll! Helvet, give us some music! Stream, you see anything?"
Wait. Still had that odd flicker in her vision. Like a glitch in the hud.
"Hang on team---"
It wasn't a flicker, it was a giant crystal salamander slowly manifesting inside the rubble nearby, still half unreal from the transition from aether space. The metal supports was groaning under the weight. Liren blinked in shock.

"Oh come on! What! I know Magic and Dragon complained an awful lot about *salamanders* but I thought they meant, like, tiny cute ones. 'Oh no, there's firebreathing salamanders downtown' they shouted. Left out a lot of important contextual detail there, didn't they? Man maybe mention the salamanders are THREE STORIES TALL and covered in crystal scales? That's not 'salamander' that's 'giant reptile monstrosity'. Jeez, people, details.

All right!

We gotta save that ice cream, and to do that we need to get there before downtown turns into a salamander hotspot. Now nobody panick! It might not have seen us. If we're lucky, it'll just pass us by! Megafauna have notoriously poor short-range vision. Right?

And where's *Clyde*? This is the perfect moment for magical support.

Stream! You have the AP ammo! Shoot if it threatens us!

Helvet! Can you make a mega-fauna mating call somewhere *Not* *Here*?"

"What the HELL?!? Salamanders don't grow that big!" Garton fumbles a bit with his mask. "And for the record, I haven't heard their mating call... whatever that is. So I can't replicate that shit unless it decides it's mating season now."

But then, he put his finger over his mouth. "What I can do, however, is mask our sounds so it won't decide to turn us ala flambe. Sounds good? Sounds good! Now let's move all sneaky-like and hope it doesn't see us as food!"

"Shit!" Stiles shouted more curses but could only hear his ears ringing from firing his rifle in such an enclosed space. Before the ringing subsided and his hearing returned, thoughts of terror and anguish rushed into his mind. Concluding that more of the little fire starters must had come out, he turned to his fellow officer. "Balor I think we've gots more salam-" Stiles' jaw dropped. Across the street pillars of fiery light fell from the sky and what he could only make out as Helish beasts. A cacophony of screams both audible and not hit Stiles. "Balor, we needs out. NOW!

"Good idea, smarts. Sneaky, like. That ice cream is so ours. Hop to it, Stream! These mega-scalies aren't all bad, since at least they're not riftspawn."

A quick mental scan of downtown revealed a few familiar wireless presences. Liren looked at the slowly materializing megafauna. Beneath the mask she broke into a wide smile. Some oppertunities you really only got once, so Liren dug out her phone and tried to find the right angle. Then she pushed up her mask enough to flash a smile.

"Adorable megafauna! Careful, it's coming to get you!"

"Please get your people off of them. I understands the risk but dragon needs them."

"I am not putting civillians and my people at risk so you can top off your evidence, and I'm not taking chances with these things. We have the truck, we have the egg, we have the female, we have male guts, we'll have the remains of the big ones soon, and if you look hard enough you'll probably find one or two that are are still alive after they either got stunned or tranqued. Now, stop complaining that this mission isn't going to be a flawless win for Dragon, cause that went out the window the moment Giant Red Monsters started rampaging through downtown!"

Oddly enough, Balor is more upset at how little he can do in this situation than by the arguement he's getting in.

Hey. calm down. Just give me a visual feed on that salamander right there. I wanna try something.

The small one up NE I mean.

"You know, it wouldn't kill people to tell me what their plans are when they ask me to help with them..." Balor grumbles as he looks over at the salamander.

Melia recoiled in shock at the sudden appearance of oversized salamanders. Taking in the situation, she marched forward anyway. Somewhere beyond the massive creatures someone was still burning away but first, maybe there was something useful in the emergency panels. Hopefully a rocket launcher or something equally as useful.

"Stream, Helvet - any of you two remember anything from megafauna biology lessons? I'm thinking these things ain't all that hostile. They could just be displaced astral beings coming in before the rift, right?

I mean - they don't look like riftspawn to me. 'Cause of the quick thinking on the quiet stepping there, Helvet, we mght not have to fight 'em.

Aaaaand - so what I'm thinking is, yeah, that 'cause of all this hullaballuly, the giant creature there'll probably be way confused about suddenly being in down town Ral Gran's shining blinking lights, it'll go a bit crazy, smash up the storefront... And 'cause of /that/ then ha-ah, no one'll ever know we cleverly made away with all the ice cream first.

And it's even better 'cause it ain't stealing, y'see? It's protecting property from the anger of a confused giant salamander crystal creature thingy.
It is the perfect crime!
Sort of. And then we just ride on out of here, no worries.

One worry. About the comms screaming. This might take a turn for the nefarious later on, so keep yer eyes sharp."

Bump

Hey everyone. I think these things might have a weak point like the one's we faced at the camp. Looks at them eyes on their backs.

Ed awoke to the blaring of klaxons. Staggering over to the surveillance console, he peered blearily at the flashing red '3' that signified the alarm level, before looking to the feed from the downtown security cameras.

"Oh no."

Oh drat! Its the fuzz! Quick Stream, Handsome, look innocent, hide the guns!

Huh, a group of masked and heavily armed individuals lurking suspiciously on a street corner. That sounds like it will lead to more paperwork than I want to deal with right now.

bump

"It's possible. The female lizard had an eye drawn on its back or something, right? "

Truly, paperwork is the scourge of all good protocol.

...

>Reply back with a simple selfie of a deadpan expression.

Also, I assume with the constant threat of Rift monster incursions that there is some sorta of public warning system? It would help with evacuating the district.

...

Stream does little more than simulate holding her breath given that she's staring down a giant crimson-scaled lizard. Actually, she does ponder for a moment if her insurance covers incineration.

bumpo

"Megafauna Biology class? Do we even have one? I guess I must've slept through it. Anyways, don't provoke ol' Big and Scaly..."
And Helvet just realized Liren's taking a selfie with ol' Big and Scary.
"...yeeeeah, I'll go see where the ice cream is. C'mon, Stream!"

Stream is currently photobombing the selfie and cannot be reached at this moment in time. Please hang up, redial, and try again.

"Oh! The ice cream. In all this excitement, I forgot about the ice-cream. Good call, you're right! Sorry Helvet, sometimes I get rather distracted. This big fella here seems friendly enough; lookit at the adorable eyes...

No, focus. Ice cream.

O-okay! Downtown is a lot more hot than I thought; we may have to adjust the plan. What I'm seeing from the feeds is that this little lonely scallywag has a bunch more buddies in the center of town. I imagine he'll want to join him. Plus I smell righteousness. Knight is around, somewhere.

Ya hear that buzzing? That's incoming rotor-craft with guns. What I'm thinking is that they've got all this covered down pat, and I don't see any more civilians. So we just move on over - get in through the door or the windows that you can see facing us (only, be quiet 'cause the sally might spot you). Grab the stuff, wait indoors for the rotorcraft to pass so they don't see us, right, then skip over the ledge here and into the forest what's below us.

Then we just walk on out of here like nothing happened. Rotorcraft and knight clean this entire mess up, and we get to keep the stocks of an entire store that mysteriously vanished in the incident. S'is foolproof!"
