Paper Soldiers (Minor Event)

Luna didn't know how she ended up on an awkward 'date' with Mizu. Apparently she agreed to it by accident, so now she was going around the stores and having a surprisingly well planned out, typical, unfittingly cutesy date. She hoped something would come up to make it less awkward, like meeting a friend or something on the way to save her (which, after thinking about, it might even be more awkward if that happened).

They were taking a detour through the business district when all of a sudden a large explosion and cloud of dust came from the near distance, taking them both by surprise. Not quite what she had in mind, but she'd take it. Mizu dropped his cigarette to the ground and stood on it as if the smoke here wasn't building fast enough already. Luna spotted two figures coming from out of the building, and she could tell Mizu noticed it was strange too. "Lets see what's going on, shall we?" he said, starting up a run without even waiting to know what Luna's response would be- it was already obvious. "No need to tell me!" She exclaimed, following two steps behind him.

(OOC Mizu and Luna apparently knew eachother already, and they somehow both managed to agree to a date with neither one really understanding how it happened at all. So it's super awkward k.)

Felix had gone for a walk, needing to get away from home just to get some fresh air when the shit hit the fan. An explosion rocked the street, as thugs poured out of seemingly no where. They were throwing smoke grenades and molotovs, as the streets and the surrounding were literally alight with fire and chaos. People were running scared, in every direction that was away from the crazy shit going down.

Felix was jostled as he tried to push through the crowd, and was knocked to the ground. He was nearly trampled by the panicked citizens as he forcefully worked his way back up to his feet. They were like a living river, and he was trying his hardest not to get swept up. He managed to push his way to a car that had been abandoned by it's owner. Felix climbed atop it, hoping to help out in some way. Then he saw them, it would have been impossible for him to notice them before the chaos, but as they walked through through the destruction as nonchalantly as you would take a stroll through a park. He knew that they were responsible, he felt the urge to chase after them as they entered a building with the words 'VERTEX'. Felix swore he saw a man, and a girl with familiarly shaded blue hair follow right after them, but they would have to wait for now.

Through all the screaming, he would hear an occasional cry for help. His heart thudded in his throat heavily, "This is so fucked . . ." He muttered to himself, before shouting, "This is so fucked!" Felix shouted at no one, punching the roof of the car leaving a dent. He felt a familiar rage take over, clouding his fear. 'Good' he thought, 'Not the time to be scared right now.' Felix took a deep shaky breath, trying to calm himself. People needed him right now, but he was just a kid with a damn good head of hair, what the hell was he supposed to do!

Of course...The ONE time that I go to the bank, all hell breaks loose. Jude ran his fingers through his hair in frustration and shock. He had literally been to FiDi maybe once or twice in his life, counting today. All he came for was to open a new bank account. Fate seemed to have other plans, though. A nearby street seemed to be going up in smoke, and people were running and screaming. Jude would have turned 180 degrees and walked right back home, but then he saw...Felix? What could this dreadhead be doing here? In any case, Jude didn't want any harm to come to his training buddy.

Just then, Jude would spot several uniformed men among the crowd. These men seemed to be involved with the cause of the chaos. Jude would be on his guard and work his way towards Felix to shout through the commotion, "What are you doing here, idiot? And do you know what's going on??"

Mizu and Luna:

They would be the first to run into trouble.

As they attempted to break through the masses, they would find three Riot members standing in their way. The first jumped left, pushing off the wall and aiming a left kick for Mizu's right shoulder. Another would aim to tackle him. The third went for Luna, darting in with a knife in his right hand to try and slash her across the cheek, left to right.

They apparently weren't fucking around.

Bianca:

One of the leaders outside, Bronco, tipped his cowboy hat in her direction. He would speak calmly, none of the RIOT members going for her.

"Now, just stay calm little lady. We're here on orders O' the core, not yer brother. Just simmer down and take a seat before yeh get hurt, alright?"

He was giving her a pass.

ViVi:

Alric stopped in front of her, his body swelling with muscle mass. He grinned, tossing his phone off to the side- this was one of the ones to look out for. He had to be ready, right?

"TIME TO GO DOWN, MISSY!"

Felix:

He would feel a body hit him in the right side as a RIOT member flying tackled him off the car. They would go tumbling, and become separated, but when Felix returned to his feet he would find 2 Riot members there to deal with.

"Get Lost, 552 wimp! This is none of your business!"

Paige:

Page would find the people blocked off by a sudden body of a grinning woman...then another, and another. Three Riot members were there standing in her way, intent not to let her get to the wounded. The first would throw a right punch for Paiges' face, the second a kick for her ribs, the third a kick for her leg.

Time to get JUMPED.

Jude:

Jude had no problems, at first. Then, he started shouting at the boy that was tackled off the car. Riot members took notice, one grabbing a tire iron from an empty car and rushing him, with more on the way!

Dawn:

Dawns Bo staff would smash into the only two soldiers she had in her path! The doors were barely closing as she rushed toward it, swinging open the door.


It was a rather rinkadink opening, as it was still being structured and opened. To the right and down the hall was a stairwell, which was closing. A man, however, was in front of the hall, his hands in his pockets. He walked over toward the desk, standing in front of the three hanging lights. He was large, about 6’4”, and built quite decently. He looked down at his watch and pressed a button, a small and constant hum coming from the direction of the hallway- clearly he had activated some sort of force field like device!


“Sorry girl….we can’t be bothering Saya right now. I suggest you turn around and go help your friends.”

OOC:

“Adone":

Str: 57
Dex: 60
Con: 55
Wis: 70
Int: 40


Summary: Fighting has begun in the streets- so far, only Dawn has gotten to VERTEX! What travesties will be going on inside!? Join our heroes and find out next time on "PAPER SOLDIERS"!

Paige would sigh as she quickly ducked under the first ones attack and sent a left punch square to there chest. as the second one came in paige would move to the left side of them and send a right kick into there gut sending them flying into the third one before she could even attack. "Why the hell are you guys doing this?" Paige would ask as she watched the three waiting for them to try something if they could

Felix turned, he couldn't believe it; the emotional storm in his mind forgotten for a brief moment as Jude grabbed his attention. "Nice to see you too, ass hat." He would say endearingly, his familiar grin replacing the mask of anger from earlier. "And I don't know they're just . . . they're hurting people man." As he said this, his smile faded, making way for an uncharacteristic look of pure sadness. He was going to say more before he was forcibly tackled off the roof of the car, screaming. "Ooooooooooh shiiiiiiii-" He grunted as he hit the ground, rolling from the impact he was up on his feet in seconds. As he recovered, he looked up he saw two of the Riot members standing over him. He could tell they were looking for a fight. 

"Get Lost, 552 wimp! This is none of your business!"

One of them said to Felix, he couldn't believe it! Here they were attacking innocent people, and him; and they wanted him to stay out of it. "You attacked Me! just MADE it my business, you piece of rat!" He would send a right roundhouse kick to the one on the right, aimed at his ribs. Felix would wonder, 'How does he know I go to 552?' turned to see Jude hauling ass in his direction, while shouting. "One incoming with a tire iron! Back to back, go." Felix complied without a word, standing opposite of Jude, they're backs almost touching. This reminded him of like a kung-fu movie he watched before. He grinned, getting into his fighting stance.
