Dr. Zanasiu pocketed the tablet. "Sorry, Dr. Joe but we've got to chase down a kidnapper," he said.

"Aisha! Dr. Landon, we'll take my truck!" Alfred said, heading towards his truck.

Cobalt Squad got into Neville's car.

"Shelton! Keith, Reynolds, James! Let's move it!" Zachary shouted from the driver's seat.

Dr. Bailey and Dr. Zanasiu got into the van.

Aisha swore as she got into the truck " that Trinoty is dead meat when I catch up to her, I'm putting a slug in her head!" she loaded her pistol with a fresh round of bullet to punctuate her point
_ she has a captive" dr Landon reminded her, who knows what she
_ I see her I'm taking her out!' Aisha spat, her face twisted in fury..

"Come on Aimee, get up" Trinity told her, stepping back slightly as she looked down at her.

Aimee spat out some blood as she looked up at Trinity, only to be grabbed by her headfur and pulled to her feet.

"I said for you to get up" Trinity spoke as she had pulled Aimee to her feet, slamming her against the over turned police car before stepping back once more.

Aimee did what she could to remain standing still as she stumbled forward in order to try and strike Trinity once more before falling back down to her knees, far too weakened for a proper fight.

Trinity just chuckled, stepping forward and kicked her in the face, to which Aimee fell down onto her stomach.

Aimee, again, attempted to get up, only to fall back down, now far too weak to even get up as Trinity just gave off a chuckle.

Trinity begun to circle the weakend Aimee, gun at her side still as she looked to the young vixen, chuckling some more as well "Weak and pathetic....as usual....such a disapointment really"

Neville's car peeled out of the parking lot and onto the road.

Alfred started his truck and followed him. "Man, I'm totally unarmed too," Alfred grumbled.

At this point, dawn was starting to break.

--------------------

PFC Reynolds got into the van. "You know, it seems like everyone hates you," he said.

"No s---," Zachary snapped.

"Shelton! Do you wish to stay behind or join us?" Dr. Zanasiu asked.

--------------------

A bystander who witnessed the accident called 911.

--------------------

The dispatch center had sent first aid and police to the Culeston Mall.

"Man, this town rarely gets this much chaos," an off duty dispatcher commented to his friend.

MrDrake · **Reply #764 on:** March 24, 2010, 12:37:19 AM

Trinity heard vehicles in the distance, looking down to Aimee "We'll meet again....this has been such fun" she chuckled as she turned and instead of heading for her car, she took off, off the road and out of sight.

Aimee again, attempted to get up, but fell back down to the ground once more, now, just laying there, bleeding still.

Shakila on the other hand, managed to get out of the car, and limped over to where Aimee was as best she could with her injured foot "Aimee? Are you okay?" she asked, once she got close enough to her, getting down to her knees.

Serris · **Reply #765 on:** March 24, 2010, 12:58:05 AM

Alfred's truck passed by the mall which was swarming with police and first aid members.

"Looks like this is the place," Alfred said turning into the mall.

He parked his truck away from the police and turned off the engine.

Neville was also parked nearby. Cobalt Squad was already out and ready for action.

"So where do we start looking?" Alfred asked.

"I'll start by asking the police. You three go look for clues, Aimee and Shakila," Neville replied.

MrDrake · **Reply #766 on:** March 24, 2010, 01:03:57 AM

Shakila soon, helped Aimee to her feet "Come on, we need to find help, we're quite far from the hotel now" she told her as she limped off with Aimee.

"Are you okay....to help me? You foot..." Aimee spoked as blood dripped out from her mouth some more.

"Ah, don't worry about me, I'll be fine, it's you who really needs the help" Shakila replied back as for now, she decided to slowly, head back to the mall with Aimee.

***

After a good 15 or so minutes of walking, Shakila could see the mall in the distance "Come on, pull through Aimee, we're almost there" she assured her friend.

Aimee was still consious as she looked to Shakila "By the way....thank you....for this...." was all she had said as they continued to slowly make their way towards the mall.

Nick22 · **Reply #767 on:** March 24, 2010, 01:22:16 AM

Aisha rushed out of the van and into the mall. keeping her gun hidden as she began to look over the mess aimee and trinity had left ' wel they cet\rtainlty made a big mess!

"I'm coming with! Give the sleep-deprived man a break!" Shelton scrambled into the vehicle. "So were rescuing the fox-lady or what?"

Serris · **Reply #769 on:** March 24, 2010, 01:52:16 AM

"No s---, we are!" Zachary said. He the peeled out of the parking lot.

-------------------

Neville and Cobalt Squad were asking the officers for information.

Spc. Crota closed his eyes and scanned around for anything. "Hey! There's two figures heading to the mall and judging from the fact that one of them has arms with no heat signature, I think it's Aimee!" he said.

"Crota! You and Masters, gheck it out," Cobalt Leader ordered.

Sgt. Masters and Spc. Crota slithered towards the two figures in the distance.

-------------------

Alfred looked around. He saw several dead bodies and EMTs treating the injured. He shuddered slightly.

"They left a lot of dead and injured too but I don't see them," Alfred said. He picked up a lump of concrete to use as an improvised weapon in case Trinity was still around.

MrDrake · **Reply #770 on:** March 24, 2010, 01:58:15 AM

Shakila didn't get far as she looked to Aimee "I need to put you down now....I can't walk anymore" she told her, helping her down against a nearby car before sitting down herself, the pain in her foot, getting far too much for her to handle.

"She's....dead meat...." Aimee growled, wiping blood from her muzzle as well.

"Yeah, but wait till you're better, you can't do anything the shape you're in right now.....I mean, she almost killed you" Shakila replied back to Aimee, giving her own foot a small rub as well, but not too much as to not cause her foot anymore pain.

Aimee only gave off a small laugh "Yeah, that's true....but something needed to be done about it....." she looked around and noticed in the distance, two figures slithering closer and closer to the two of them.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #771 on:** March 24, 2010, 02:30:22 AM

Shelton rubbed his head. "Can someone explain to me again why the fox-lady is with us?" he asked. "It may be my migraine, but I'm still a little unclear on this. Is she going to help defeat Dragonstorm or just destroy things?"

"Hey, coming from someone who hasn't done s**t for us yet, maybe you could shut your mouth and start being useful!"

Shelton narrowed his eyes. "My usefulness comes into play once we reach the Dragonstorm base."

Serris · **Reply #772 on:** March 24, 2010, 07:45:41 PM

"Aimee! Shakila!" Spc. Crota shouted.

He and Sgt, Masters slithered up to the two.

Sgt, Masters examined the wounds on them. "We'll need to get you two to the hospital," he said.

-------------------------

Omega Squad was deep inside the ship. Around them were the armored blast doors of laboratories.

-------------------------

"Aimee may have vital information on Dragonstorm and she may help us take them down," Dr. Zanasiu replied to Shelton.

"We're here and it looks like half of Culeston PD is here too," Zachary said, pulling into the parking lot.

MrDrake · **Reply #773 on:** March 24, 2010, 07:55:14 PM

Aimee gave off a small little laugh "Well, yeah....just blame Trinity for this...." she gave off a small smile as well, yet, she then coughed a bit again, soem more blood being coughed out as well.

Shakila looked to her bleeding foot before looking at the two reptiles "Yeah, hospital would be good....I mean, I just got shot in the foot....and I'm not used to that.....and it hurts like hell too" she spoke with a bit of a wince, trying to ignore the pain in her foot still.

***

Jayden soon enough, arrived on the scene, having finished sorting out everything back at the hotel. He approached Alfred and the others as he spoke "I take it that this was to do with that woman again? Trinity was it?" he asked the bison.

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #774 on:** March 24, 2010, 08:39:26 PM

Shelton swore. "They'll have a profile on me from my Dragonstorm days. Plus I'm still wearing my uniform." He ducked down in his seat and tried to lie flat o the ground. "If the cops ask, I'm not here."

Mirumoto_Kenjiro · **Reply #775 on:** March 24, 2010, 10:36:55 PM

The Eagle bodyguard walked up to Dr Joe. "You did what came here to do," he said. "Now they'll get the help they need when they need it. You're too valuable to stay out here any longer."

"Fine..." Dr Joe turned to get back into the car. "I need to know how Vic and Snow are doing now."

With everyone back in the car, they turned and started to make their way south back to Utah...

----------

Deathwind has left the bloodied halls to try and follow the scent of the Crimson Squad. This time, no Dragonstorm lackeys will stand in his way and survive...

----------

Ariol had returned to the deck and started gathering a group of assassins & guards to form a posse. He's eager to hunt now...

----------

In a matter of moments, Aiko has tapped into the ship's database, downloading blueprints and layouts. "Got it, boss."

Vic looked over and nodded. "Good. Send copies to Eron and Mallard and let's start setting communications since we'll be working separately for a while. The least we should do is disable the ship's defenses long enough to have the Navy blow it out of the water."

"Tell me again why can't they do that themselves?" Ice said, grimly.

"It might not look like it, but this ship, like most others, is very well defended. Stealth can keep anyone from tracking it and sending a ballistic or cruise missile into it, and it has enough armament to keep air and sea strikes at bay. Pelvanida wouldn't have been taken out if it wasn't for taking out the base's generators. It's the same here, and it will be the same for the base holding Lab 101."

"Point taken..."

Serris · **Reply #776 on:** March 25, 2010, 12:14:58 AM

Alfred nodded; involuntarily, his grip tightened on the piece of concrete he was holding. "She was and she will pay for this," he said. Suddenly, there was a crack as Alfred's powerful grip accidentally snapped the piece of concrete in half along a small crack.

Alfred dropped the broken piece of concrete. "In any case, are you Jason, the man who called me en route from Lincoln City?"

---------------------

"Anything?" Dr. Zanasiu asked. Around him were Zachary, Dr. Bailey, Hans and Werner.

"Nothing," Werner replied.

"Hey is that Aimee?" Zachary asked, pointing to some figures in the far side of the parking lot.

Dr. Bailey looked in the same direction. "Yeah, that's her," he said.

"Let's see if they're okay," Hans said.

The group then headed towards them.

---------------------

Spc. Crota and Sgt. Masters returned to Aimee and Shakila with some EMTs.

Spc. Crota and Sgt. Masters then donned some gloves given to them by the EMTs and began bandaging Shakila and Aimee's wounds.

"Do you two want to go to the hospital," Spc. Crota asked as he was bandaging Shakila's wound.

-------------------------

Cpl. Stern was walking along the streets of Culeston. He had already assisted in treating the injured from the bombing and decided to take a walk to clear his mind and look for the rest of the group.

(OOC - Noname has handed Cpl. Stern to me until he returns.)

MrDrake · **Reply #777 on:** March 25, 2010, 12:32:37 AM

"Actually, it's Jayden, but yes, it was me whom had called you up, I had gotten your number from my police records" Jayden replied back to Alfred.

***

"Yeah, the hospital would be best, unless you know how to remove a bullet from someone's foot, cause I mean, I haven't been shot in the foot before, and man, does it hurt like hell" Shakila winced a bit as her wound was being tended to.

"I'll be fine, i don't really need the hospital" Aimee spoke, only to be interupted by Shakila.

"Don't kid yourself, you've been beaten enough as it is, you might have some sort of, I don't know, a concusion, or a headache, or whatever it is you get from being struck in the face a few times" Shakila told Aimee back.

Aimee gave off a small grumble, wiping her face some more "Yeah, I guess so, but I don't really know....."

aabicus (LettuceBacon&Tomato) · **Reply #778 on:** March 25, 2010, 12:39:05 AM

Shelton showed up behind the others. He had taken off his black Dragonstorm jacket, leaving only his undershirt; a red plaid lumberjack shirt that clashed brilliantly with his black pants. "Decided I'll take my chances. The cops haven't proven themselves to be very observant in the past," he explained, shivering in the night.

He surveyed the wounds. "I've got alcohol and extraction equipment, if we plan on removing the bullet here," he said, sliding a long thin instrument out of a black fabric case on his belt.

"What do you have a bullet extractor for?" asked Sgt. Crota.

"Well, it's not, it's for something else, but it'll work for this too."

(OOC: I actually have a rationale for him having this instrument. It will be described once the group is all together and things have calmed down.)

Serris · **Reply #779 on:** March 25, 2010, 12:40:36 AM

The EMTs heard Aimee and Shakila's words and loaded them onto stretchers.

Spc. Crota spotted James's group standing near him.

"James! We've found Shakila amd Aimee!" he said.

"Good!" James replied. He then turned to Aimee. "I hope you get well soon," he said.

"So what shall we do?" Zachary asked.

"I'd say we should visit them in the hospital but they may have to undergo surgery so maybe we should hold off until then."

----------------------

Neville eventually found Aisha. "Have you found Aimee and her friend?" he asked.

----------------------

"I'd like to know how I have a police record in Oregon. But in any case, my name is Alfred Byford," Alfred replied.
