81382-mia 22 Cathera Randinbor wearing his power suit and a trenchcoat. "So, anybody find anything at all useful? No? Well alright then." To the casual obsrever, it would seem that Cathera had gone crazy and was talking to himself. He was really speaking into a comlinkin his suit. He trudged along and dug through debris with a power shovel. Suddenly, a call came in over the link...
Who: Gyethym Wearing: Black pants Gyethym grinned as the group of 'dragons ran, screaming, from his poison. He was immune to its affects, though he saw an arden or two fall in its wake. "This has got to be the best weekend I've ever had." He leapt down as the poison cleared, studying a few of them before beginning to collect what he'd come for.
Jaina wolfhawk was particulerly upset when the call came in that there was a medical emergency over by dig site twenty two right after they squaked the urgent call on the radio. "I hope that little bastard knows that people are in DANGER here," she fumed. She double timed it when a few seconds later the entire dig site twenty two's poison sensor trap went off. Cathera channeled all the power in his suit to the legs so that he could be on the scene, right before the emergency squak dig site twenty two said they announced an incredible find...
Gyethym was getting very annoyed with the frequencies going on in this stupid place as he sat on top of the neat pile he'd made, disecting the bodies out of pure boredom. He found something small and very shiny on one of the bodies and picked it up, turning it over in his paws. "Huh." Gold tooth. He grinned and slipped it into his pouch, wandering over to look at the holes they'd been digging. He left a pile of body parts behind for any survivors to find.
"Fronima," Cathera whisperd to himself. He told the rest of the dig team to abandon their sites and get the hell out. Cathera pulled out the tiny pistol the military had allowed him and grimiced. This was going to be quite a challenge to kill this son of a bitch. He opend fire as Jaina started trying to talk to the bastard. Jaina sprinted over to the dig site and saw Gyethym immidiatly, he made no attempt to hide himself. She almost passed out from the fumes of the poison, but still managed to call out to him, then the bullets started ripping chunks out of the ground.
Thym looked up at the sound of Jaina's voice, suddenly feeling a little guilty. What is she doing here? He wondered, pressing his ears against his head. A bullet tore up the ground right by his feet and he jumped, whirling around to glare at the little dwarf that attacked him. His eyes narrowed and he bared his teeth, snarling, before shifting into his quad form. He raced across the ground, dodging bullets and picking up speed. His eyes were locked on the short arden trying to hurt him, his muscles rippling powerfully as he charged. The bastard might hit Jaina! What the hell does he think he's doing? He wondered, barely feeling the bullet rip through his side as he pounced, reaching for the dwarf to bring him tumbling down the hillside. Idiot. He thought smugly, ignoring the warm liquid trickling down his leg and the spots in his vision.
"SHIT!" Cathera yelled. Jaina screamed and leaped over to the edge of the hill. Cathera was in real danger, and if that suit had as many suprises built in as she expected, so was Gyethym.
Thym glared at the dwarf, hardly aware of anything but his "prey". Jaina's scream snapped him into reality and he tumbled away from the dwarf, having snatched the gun. He rose to his feet, blinking in confusion before snapping the gun in his hand. It was easy, really; so tiny...he turned it over, suddenly preocuppied once more. What was with the black spots all over the crushed metal? His numb mind didn't register the wound in his side or the bloodstained fur. He stabbed into each of the spots, tearing the metal more, but they just kept coming back. The hell? He wondered, crushing it more and frowning, deep in thought. I'm finally going crazy. Wait'll I find...someone. He frowned and looked around, the spots seeming to be everywhere. He...couldn't see. "Vokc, I got poison in my eyes." He grumbled, tossing the crushed gun over his shoulder in the direction of his prey.
Cathera was dumbfounded when Jaina rushed over and started to tend to the ardens wounds, if a tad roughly. "WHAT IN THE HOLY SHIT ARE YOU DOING TAKING CARE OF THAT SON OF A BITCH?!" She meerely gave him one of those glares that shuts anybody up and kept going. "His poisons are really potent but I can immunize everyine else in the camp. Now, get me one of the pink crystals in my bag or I will tell the expadition how sensative you are about how weak your suit is. Now, where are my crystals?" Cathera ran off swearing.
Gyethym turned toward the sound of swearing, growling angrily. "Who's he calling a son of a bitch? I'm not the one shooting people for no damn reason." He grumbled, cracking his knuckles sd if to attack.
"Gyethym, you killed off the excavation crew that made a discovery AS THEY DISCOVERED. This is that guys life, to get back at the world for mistreating him. That discovery might change all our lives, so get your ass down here and let me finish treating you." Jaina smirked, then gave him a quick kiss. "There, did that make it all better?" Cathera rounded the hill to find a guy ina military outfit. He was on the other end of Catheras rifle.
Gyethym tried not to blush as Jaina kissed him quickly, almost not hearing her words. High paying job, keep everyone away from the power source. He recited the order in his head, mumbling it under his breath. "Is there a reason someone would want it not to be found?" He'd been offered a lot of money, all to himself, along with permission to do anything he wanted with the 'dragons he discovered as well as keep their belongings. He almost smiled, thinking of some of the things he had found, but shook his head. His ears swiveled in the direction the dwarf and run, hearing what sounded like heavy breathing. Don't let it be them... He pleaded silently.
The only problem with Catheras aperant enemy holding Cathera's rifle, was Cathera knew how to work it better then they did. "Question, did you know you didn't prime that rifle right?" The assailent looked down for a split second, and Cathera shoved the but of the rifle into the Ardens throat. Even though he was incredibly happy to get his rifle back (ooc: the rifle only comes back this easy in this thread, he wont have it yet in others!)ic: he still didn't know what the power source was, but it couldn't be what dig crew 22 had found, that would mean whatever it was had people who already knew it was there. Jaina saw Gyethym rise up and run to the noise she had faintly heard. She hoped Cathera had just tripped, but deep down knew that wasn't it. She decided to go over to the dig pit to see what dig crew 22 had found. She was silently knocked out by a spell shot from around the cornor.
