MISSION: GET TO ZE CHOPPA

Date & Time: August 23rd, 2753 (OOCly forward-dated to the 1st)
Location: Uruguay National Defense HQ
Characters: All transports!
Summary: All transports are sent back to Uruguay to download a self-aware AI before it gets bombed out of existence by an early incarnation of the UE. Time distortion effects will be set right either on the way there or on the way back, according to player choice.
Warnings: violence, action movie tension, 3 terabytes of foot fetish porn.

The Transporter drops the entire transport population into what will quickly be established as Home Base, a mile from the vast, sprawling facility that is Uruguay's National Defense HQ. The low roar of helidrones moving above is pervasive, but the black ships can only be glimpsed here and there through the thick cover of trees overhead. If you keep calm and quiet, it's likely you won't be spotted. It's the UND HQ their attention is on, after all.

The population is quickly sorted by attending Initiate employees according to who volunteers to fight and who volunteers to protect, along with those with enough skill to access the computers, and those with enough skill to get them there. The fighters move out first, off to intercept the early UE's ships and ground troops, and to draw the automated defense systems of the facility alike. They'll be in a crossfire, and neither side will be happy to see them there.

The techies and their escorts are sent out far more quietly, in groups of three. Their task is to sneak past the front lines and into the facility itself. There might be alarms and automated defense drones, so those escorts may well be called on to earn their keep. The Initiative can't give any information about which building will house the AI's mainframe, that information was long since lost to history. All they can do is send out enough people to hope that one of them manages to find it.

And remember — as soon as the UE troops withdraw, there will only be minutes until the bomb drops. Everyone would do well to work fast.



[[ Mission information is here, and the techie/escort teams, along with their hacking results, are here. Each techie/escort group will have their own established thread, but Team Distraction and Team We'll Stay Here, Thanks are welcome to thread where ever and however they like! The newbie log that goes up on the 1st will also encompass the arrival back in Exsilium, if you'd like to play that out as well. ]]

Ahhh, the friendly girl with gilly-things sticking out of her! She was really busy when my group came here and way friendly too. I think I remember her doing something fun at the masquerade too... Your royalty has a lot of energy.

[Though they all do, from what he can tell in past interactions.]

[ She freezes for a moment, canting her head to listen closely for a strange noise she thinks she just heard-- until it's gone. Could have been the trees. It's making her anxious, deep down.

She finally looks back at Zelos, expression obscured by the mask. ]


Eyes ahead. [ "Not on me." ]

Are you doing well, have you seen any space robot monkeys yet?

[its at this point she notices that despite his smile he looks like he might be a little...jumpy? I guess it's too be expected in a situation like this. She just wasn't used to being the more calm one on the battlefield.]

You haven't been injured, have you?
speakveryclearly: Kanaya holds Eridan's chin in her nail-polished hands looking down at him tenderly. He is worried but they are moirails. (Lift)

You've regained your magic??

[Slightly forced hope.]
wilder: (hey look I found your fail)

[personal profile] wilder 2013-02-01 05:16 am (UTC)(link)
Hey- sorry! You were kinda distracting up there!

[But fine he'll turn his head back to look towards the distance. Not nearly time yet]

I assure you, no earth children are mine.

( She quirks a brow. Not human here, bro. )

And in the face of everything else we've seen, you think a rifle will help that much?

No.

That don't mean I'm defenseless.

...

[He's been assessing the field for a while, and even if the second plan sounds like a good idea, there's still some risk involved with the person that stayed behind to face the guards.

Though this blonde woman's confidence...]


How sure are you of your ability to stay hidden?

[Might as well get that out of the way first...]
fujibayashi: (smile ► don't know why you wanna)

[Ugh, gunshots. Sheena's not quite used to all of this, and has a tendency to wince when one goes off near her. In all the chaos, though, it's to be expected. Everyone has different fighting styles, and Sheena is no exception.

Having finished her current target, she looks for trouble spots-- more robots to dismantle. And then she sees a familiar Transport who isn't entirely aware.]


Watch out!

[Sheena nails the wayward, opportunistic militant in the stomach. He doubles over before he can lay a finger on the gun-mage. She seals him like a bad habit and turns away. That should take care of him for a while.]

Tori, right? Are you okay?
ino: (Determined.)

[personal profile] ino 2013-02-01 06:04 am (UTC)(link)
Well, maybe in your opinion there is. I just meant that I don't mind you the way you are now.

[Nathaniel's voice surprised Shu because he'd been so tense all this time. He took a minute to collect his breath and then acknowledged what was going on around him.]

Understood.

[Elza made it quite obvious she wanted him to go ahead, so he did. Shu was impressed by how well the others were handling themselves during this. He thought they might be professionals at this thing.]

Pardon the sudden question, but are both of you used to these sort of missions?

[He addressed the other escorts behind him while running ahead.]


ino: (Yeah whatever.)

[personal profile] ino 2013-02-01 06:16 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, you don't have to tell me that. Just the idiots who've pledged their undying loyalty to them for no reason.

[SIGHS.]

But it's probably a good idea for me to be here, anyways. Just in case anyone gets hurt.

OH THIS TEAM IS SEXY!

[Aragorn didn't even honor the man's words with a reply. Instead, he simply unsheathed his blade and stalked towards the door. His uneasy silence made it rather clear that this wasn't the time for sarcasm. Beyond these doors lie the enemy, and at any moment their lives could be cut short. Casting his gaze over towards the assassin, Aragorn gestures for him to scout ahead.]

Stick to the walls and you'll remain unseen.

[He quietly muttered to Ezio.]

Our presence here is best left unnoticed.

( She thinks she hears someone addressing her, but it's hard to tell at first. Collette's pretty sure she could be a minor island nature right now, the length of her back breaking the surface of the water around the ships out in the bay. She hears shouts and cries carry across the water, mostly ignoring them as she took care not to ram into any of the massive ships themselves.

That voice... one large eye rolls around, trying to find who was speaking. What she sees makes no sense! )


< Kougyoku? You look way different! ... You can fly?! >
whatsupcroc: (☈ mutant: whale of a tale)

[personal profile] whatsupcroc 2013-02-01 06:58 am (UTC)(link)
( Collette is far too far away to hear any such exclamation. As the giant that she is, recognizeable to those who saw the same creature in the aftermath of the Russian mission months prior, she looks like an unexpected island in the middle of the bay. Those ships in the bay are reacting to her with decent speed, even as she submerges and does her best to create massive wave interference.

Being shot at, being fired at? Yeah, ouch, that wasn't fun, but neither was the idea of flopping down on these ships and trying to sink them until she had to.

Besides, by forcing them further out to sea, she was drawing their firepower away from the base, and thus, in part, her friends. )

< Red rover red rover, let the aircraft carrier come over! >
whatsupcroc: (☈ mutant: whale of a tale)

[personal profile] whatsupcroc 2013-02-01 07:01 am (UTC)(link)
( Really, it's surprising he notices her at all. She certainly neither notices nor hears him, far out in the bay as she is playing a game of cat and mouse with the aircraft carriers. They've started to direct their firepower toward her, just as she planned. Less time spent targeting the shore and the base, more time afforded to her friends.

Of course, the jets are a little intimidating, but if there's one thing to say about immense size, it's something about how much beating it can take. Especially as she dives below the surface, generating massive waves to crash over the decks of the ships. )


< Look out! I think it's diving under us! >

( She's happy to toss out her own misleading dialogue. )
thebluepawn: (It's cold okay.)

[And if Maya is a restless distraction, Phoenix is her stalker. He's been following her around wherever she's going, staying within sprinting distance in case something happens to her. He's not right behind her, but he's close enough that he can talk to her without yelling and keep an eye on her.

Why is she so calm?

Why are they here? Why can't they go home?]


Maya.

What's... going on?

[ Time fluxes are funny things. For the past week or so, Jason's been a surly guy, hiding out in bars and itching for the kind of fight that's building up around him.

Five minutes after arriving in Uruguay, he's back to being a tough looking kid in civilian clothes with a hell of a headache. Time warps play a trip on a guy's mind.

...What. The fuck.

How about a Dog Demon?

Unlike the woman who wore clothing stranger than those that human his brother fawned over, Sesshoumaru strikes to kill--not incapacitate--his enemy. The Tenseiga, however, stays in its sheath, the Meidou remaining unused as the air seems to crackle with the energy from the Whip of Light emanating from his hand as precision hit after precision hit brings down those who seek to attack him--enemies not worthy to be sent to the Underworld by his sword's Ultimate Attack.

The fact that all these skirmishes take place a distance from where those who have no business being brought here is nothing more than coincidence.

[personal profile] protects_no_one 2013-02-01 08:13 am (UTC)(link)
And there is a demon who had just come to the same conclusion watching said chipmunk as it curries along, his eyes going back along the small animal's trail to determine if there is a cause for such scampering. Finding none within his sharp vision, he turns and regards the dragon calmly and quietly.

How strange to encounter that considered a god in his time.
protects_no_one: ([Stern])

A, please.

[personal profile] protects_no_one 2013-02-01 08:22 am (UTC)(link)
[Not too far away is the daiyoukai, his acute sense of smell detecting all the information needed about Koltira long before he turns and regards the being.

Feeling a vibration on his hip, he looks down at Tenseiga, his eyes narrowed and his brow furrowed in confusion. The sword can't be serious and he refuses its request, not bothering to lower his deep voice.]


It is too late, Tenseiga.
acemedium: this was a generic keyword i'm too lazy to change (It'll be okay)

[This... this is weird. Even before being pulled here, Nick never hovered like this. In fact, it was more the other way around, her tagging along with him. And then... the weird old Nick, indirect and different and shabby.... Even this Nick, who was her Nick... he seemed so worried, and he stuck so close...]

[Well, for her part, she closed that gap between them to stand next to him, attempting for a reassuring grin because she wasn't sure how else to handle this situation. Why did she have a better handle on things than Nick? He was the lawyer]


Um, a mission! I guess we're stuck here for now though, it's pretty boring...

Sam winced as well, shielding his eyes. "Nor I, until now." He shook his head, he felt a bit bad about not helping but from what he could see he would be naught but a hindrance.

"Aragorn is a brave fighter." He assured Frodo, "I'm not sure if Pippin has gone with them."
protects_no_one: ([Look])

A :D

[personal profile] protects_no_one 2013-02-01 08:31 am (UTC)(link)
[A familiar scent catches Sesshoumaru's attention as he strides through the base, ostensibly checking the defenses, since there's no way he's making sure the children are all right.

Nor is he following the scent out of curiosity as he comes up near the strange red-headed human (what weird human ritual is it to play with ones ears before a battle?), his gaze also focused ahead, his eyes moving slowly as he scans the area directly in front of the base up to the battlefield for any enemies attempting a cowardly ambush.]


Intriguing weapon.

[For a coward.]
