Docking Bay, Lower Heliport, Premium Bridge Entrance/Exit (aka Terminal)

Crimson Knight Brigade wrote:2 large transport helicopters touchdown onto the surface, while three combat helicopters hover around the airspace of the Silver Craft like vultures. The troops exit their helicopters, guns at the ready. They take the elevator up in turns, making it up to the bridge without a single hitch. They breach the threshold of the Premium Tower-ready to claim the Casino for their own.

Among the first unit of the invading force of CKB was Ling-Ling, the 'Lieutenant' in charge of overseeing the invasion and possible recruitment of new members. "Come on come on, move it people! We don't have all day~" she says in a singsong tone, giggling girlishly. She takes out her club, slamming the door open with it. "Now...let's proceed." she exclaims, grinning wildly with sharp pointy teeth.

A limping Ling-Ling hobbles out onto the flight deck with a glowing smile as she approaches one of the helicopters. "The situation has changed, the CEO bitch is KIA. My presence is no longer needed here and I'm sure the small contingent of soldiers shall be suitable." she says to the pilot. The young man was confused, but nodded anyhow. Ling-Ling cooed, wrapping an arm around the man's neck; at first scaring the pilot who believed the woman was going to break his neck. He'd seen a lot of his own buddies die because of the mental case who was in the cockpit as well. But then he was just surprised when Ling-Ling giggled almost in a girly fashion as she leaned in and planted a kiss upon his right cheek. "Hmhmhm!" She giggled. "We're headed to Domescadia baby, we'll rendezvous with one of the CKB's ''recruiters'' at Minktail, so get this bird flying and don't stop!" she cried out too ecstatically. The pilot shrugged, feeling overwhelmed by Ling-Ling's attitude and fucked up personality before doing as she bidded. Hell, it was better than being in her way when she was angry anyhow.

Soon the 'copter left the rooftop and was heading for the nearby continent of Domescadia.

Soon after, another helicopter flew in, harboring a young demon hunter, and a young... hermit? not sure how to describe her. As they stepped out of the helicopter, Alastor said "Ya know, I really hope that this won't go as badly as the last time we were at a casino..." he said with a sigh.

(Welcome back )

Mina turned towards Alastor with a perplexed look. "...Last time?" she asked, a tad worried for what may happen to them since he had 'sighed'; she didn't even know what a Casino was, but from the sounds of it, it was quite a painful and horrible experience for the Demon Hunter before her... if not a tad annoying. "You were here before?" she added.

"Not here, a place like it, but with less water. I'd rather not talk about it right now." He said, as he shuddered from the memory of that. "I still don't know where the lion came from." he said to himself, but loud enough for Mina to hear.

She recoiled slightly. It really must have been painful for him to shutter... These 'Casinos' seem to be quite a merciless form of demon. "The lion?" she asked out loud. "How was a lion involved to begin with?" she asked before noticing a man in red ahead of them. She felt something snap in her head and she grabbed the Demon Hunter and pressed his back against the helicopter. "I sense evil and malice from over there..." she said softly. Another peak around she could see many men and women clad in red walking about with weapons. "These people in red...they're not to be trusted." she says, extending her hand. A silver orb appeared from her palm, and then took shape, long and curved. When it was finished, her magically conjured bow Chinsei Hichou was fully formed. With her bow in hand, she turned to Alastor with her cerulean gaze. "These Casino's must be the harbinger of hell it self."

'Well definitely greed and debauchery." He snarked. "But it's usually not literally infested with demons." As he noticed the group of people clad in red, he hurried himself and Mina behind the copter. "Dammit, that's the Crimson Knight Bridage, what the hell are they doing here?

There were only four roof sentries, three men, one woman. All were clad in red and black armor, and three of them were carrying silenced SPW Exile -R6 ''Basilisk'' Assault rifles with underslung shotguns:



The woman had a strange submachine gun known as a SPWElite-Ks44 "Skorpion":



All had a handgun in their holster, which had appeared to be a Quicksilver PROFESSIONAL .45 that had an underslung flashlight/laser pointer:



They were walking past large steel crates and looked over to the newly arrived helicopter. "When did that get here?" the female asked, turning towards another member. He looks to her then slowly fingers the safety off the weapon and begins to stalk over to the newly arrived and very antique moss grown helicopter.

"I don't know... Though I'm sure that they're not friendly." she whispered back. She took an arrow from her quiver and slid it beside the shaft of her bow. "Any suggestions?" she asked, noticing a shadow was coming towards them.

"Yeah, we'll have to take them out quietly, or we'll have to deal with their allies. I doubt they're the only 4 in this place." He said, pointing to a stack of crates. "Think you can get over there and take a couple out with your bow? I'll try to sneak up on some of them and hope we don't raise the alarm."

She nodded. "Yeah. Good luck." she whispered with a smile. She turned towards the metal crates and dashed off at a low angle, almost with her chest to the ground. She makes it behind the crate and prepares to take out the first of the two, pulling her bow at an angle and then released. The arrow shot out silently, stabbing through the neck of one unsuspecting guard who actually fell forward, tumbling over the railing and then free fell several hundred feet down into the black moth ocean. She turned to see the female soldier and the male soldier walk over to the helicopter. She got her bow ready for the fourth member yet to be taking the eternal sleep and pulled back the string.

The two CKB agents, oblivious of their mate's death and of the young woman with the bow behind them, continue to the side of the copter. Both soldiers split, one going around towards the tale, while the woman readies her skorpion before diving around the cockpit to the other side: "Freeze!" she commanded, the stock of her smg against her shoulder, her finger on the trigger and ready to aim and kill if necessary.

All the while, the fourth guard walks about the more open area of the Silver Craft's Docking bay roof. He is oblivious as much as the other three who were on shift.

Alastor signaled Mina to shoot down the soldier at the helicopter, while he grabbed the other one, pulling them down and suffocating them.

She quickly shoots up and releases the arrow, the shaft digs deep through the CKB female's chest, and was popping out from the other end. She turns to the unsuspecting guard, sprinting up behind him and lunged up placing the bows shaft against the CKB agent's neck, pulling him back tightly, strangling him while Alastor was suffocating the other guard.

The female stood there, her eyes wide behind her visor which hid them. Her mouth gaped, blood dripping from the corner. She falls to her knee, her hand wrapped around the bladed tip. "How...is this possible?" she whispered, looking up to the young man who just suffocated her partner who was walking around the tail of the copter. She looks up to him, and made a grimace. "Who...who the hell are you?!" she cried, her teeth red with her blood; her body too weak to raise and shoot the Skorpion at this invader.




-meanwhile-

The guard dropped his silenced Assault Rifle and begins struggling with the bow shaft against his neck. He shook and stammered, but soon found he was stronger than his attacker. Pulling his fingers around the bow, driving himself forwards, pulling the young huntress over his back and onto the ground onto her back. He gasped, grasping his throat with his left hand while drawing his handgun from his right thigh holster. "You...your dead!" he thumbed back the safety and leveled the weapon to Mina's head!

Alastor, spotting the soldier, drew his revolver, but suddenly, there was a chill in the air, and ice formed around the remaining soldier, freezing him solid. "Wait, but T.O.M. took, Onishe, are you back?" he said to himself, looking to his arm, confused.

Mina's eyes widened, a hair trigger aimed for her head:

Then the man was encased in ice completely. Her big blue eyes slowly returned to normal, and she let out a large sigh of relief. She stood up, turning to Alastor with timid eyes. "Thanks for the assist Alastor, but...did you say... T.O.M.?" she felt a shiver go up her spine.

Waving his arms in a comical fashion, Alastor replied "Let me explain! A few days ago, I fought an ice dragon by the name Onishe, who when I beat him, gave me ice powers by joining with me. The day after, I got a job to guard someone, who T.O.M. was working for. For whatever reason, probably for laughs, he teleported me out in the ocean near your island, and took Onishe from me. so that's kinda how I got to your island." Then it dawned on him. "Wait, how do YOU know about T.O.M.?"

"Wait, how do YOU know about T.O.M.?"

"That explains why you were on the beach..." Her eyes widened, then she shivered. "Well... it is a bit of a story..." she closed her eyes and let out a small sigh. "Well..." she looked pain stricken. "I think right now is not the best... time to talk about him.." she says softly, looking down at her feet. She looks back up at Alastor and begins to wave her arms in a comical fashion, her face blushed a little. "Oh don't worry about me I'm truly fine!Its-just-that-we-should-get-moving-before-we-get-another-four-or-eight-guards-showing-up! Hehhehheh!" she laughed nervously, changing the subject. "So, does that mean you can perform both Onishe's and Raiden's powers now?" she blinked.

A helicopter hovered over the landing deck, a nondescript black helicopter with no insignia upon it. The door slides open, a cloaked figure pulls her frame from the open back door, and waits for the helicopter to get in range of the landing pad. She was a Gunslinger sent from the Gunslinger Association, hired to deal with the CKB presence on board the Silver Craft. She turns to the pilot, her cerulean gaze in low light glows. "I'll contact you one the job is done. Back up won't be necessary." Says the female Gunslinger Enforcer. She gives the pilot a thumbs up before running out the back, leaping onto the landing pad and rolling once she hit the concrete. Her cloak fell back, detaching itself from her body and she gasped as it was taken by the blowing winds of the rotary blades. She was a rather buxom beauty, with a red and leather ensemble that had heavy brass influences as well as fur lining. With a stripped tail and tiger stripe fur, the Tora-mimi that was known by some as the 'White Tiger', stood up from the heliport, watching the helicopter which brought her there fly away.

She had a chimera revolver, a nice gun to have when one didn't know what caliber the mooks were carrying and she was running low on the ammunition.

Chimera's look:

If needed... she also had the parts to make her rifled carbine variant:

Chimera revolving rifle:

She was concentrating so much of her energy on the mission, she didn't notice the couple a few yards behind her (Mina and Alastor); even on the way in they were just not there. Her tiger's tail snaked and waved. The tall Tiger-woman was about to head in, weapon drawn and ready to go!

"Huh, that was weird." Regarding the armed tiger woman who just appeared and ran off. "Either way, you look that way..." Alastor said, pointing to a hallway "...while go this way." and then thumbed another hallway. "Your hallway should lead to the O-edo district, It's Beijio-themed. Mine should lead to the Western District. You should find some signs leading to the central tower, we'll meet there in 20 minutes. Sound good?" He asked his companion.

A the helicopter flew past her, Mina held down her sarong, afraid for her modesty as it fluttered and waved in the back draft. Once it was passed and she saw the Tiger-Lady run off she nodded in agreement. "O-Edo huh? Yeah, that sounds alright with me. Splitting up allows us to cover more ground anyhow." she was about to walk away when she pauses and turns to Alastor again, albeit concerned. "Um.. Your friend... what does he look like, and by what name does he go by again?" she asked feeling a little flustered since she already forgot.

(oocc: Hmm... A new running gag possibility...HEH HEH HEH :twisted:XD)

Alastor blinked, and then replied "Oh yeah, in all the excitement, I forgot to show you a picture of him, here." He said, as he pulled out his phone, showing her a picture of Irvine. (OOC: and since it's 2a.m., I don't feel like posting a link or the picture, maybe later.) "His name is Irvine, just tell him that you're working with me, and that we're meeting in the central tower. He'll know what to do from there. Sound good?"
