From Chaos Comes Order [OA]

[Enshara]

Freya Dergunri
Codename: Songstress

"Do not cage the bird..."

As he speaks, she looks around for a moment before looking back at him. Her hood was still in place, which was good for her at least. Placing her left hand in his, since her right was holding her sword, she waits to see what he was going to do.

[Out Of Coffee:]

...or you will never hear the beautiful song that it has to sing for you."

 

[Zahzi]

"You will be reporting directly with Weiss on this matter." Clive replied as the monitor turned off for the final time.
"Rino, be sure to keep your guard up with this one. He tends to be rather capable against our forces." He warned the man in front of him.
"Now then. You are dismissed."

The moment Freya placed her hand on his, his hand grasped onto it and yanked her as close to him as possible as a rapid set of beeps could be heard from the devices on the wall.
He then acted as a shield between her and the wall.
"THINK. HAPPY. THOUGHTS." He told her as the wall exploded, revealing an opening to the outside. As a happy accident, Veerus would have a delightful view of the fireworks.

Before all the debris had fallen, Jarid was sprinting out, carrying Freya and jumped into the air. As he did so, the jets under his boots and on his back shot out, sending the two flying away from the ensuing gunfire.

A transmission was then heard.
"To any and all in the area. ******** up!"  

[ExtraWhiteRice]

"Bender" Rino Raust

"~Build them up with Iron and Steel, Iron and Steel, Iron and Steel..."

"Understood." Rino responded, bowing before he left the presence of the chairman. On his way out of the building, he picked up a headset-he didn't like carrying one around, but it was necessary. He tuned it to the appropriate frequency, touching the side to test the transmission. "This is Bender to Commander Weiss. I've just been assigned Mistwalker Morris. Heading to his last known position. Over and out." These headsets were pretty amazing-communication over long distances was necessary in their war against the non-abiding afflicted. He opened the case file, the main thing he was looking for was common sighting areas, and last known position of this 'mistwalker.'

Getting a location, he headed out, to a town that was somewhere nearby to where Jarid was being attacked.

"Iron and steel will bend and bow, my fair lady~"

 

[ExtraWhiteRice]

"Skulker" Veerus Xander

We live in shadow, use darkness to hide;

"Ahh, such pretty fireworks...Jarid MUST be in trouble, then." Veerus wore no headset, but he didn't have to to know that the order to kill them had been given. They wouldn't be expecting an...extra visitor, would they? Stepping into a shadow that was nearby, Veerus appeared at the back of the line-in the shadows of the building rubbel, where Jarid had already left, and the gunfire trailed behind him. Oh, how delicious the blood from these suits would look. Soon, Veerus was behind one of the machines firing, his sword flashing from the shadow of his billowing cloak, cutting straight through the suit, and the man inside it. "Hey, where was my invitation to this party?" Veerus called out, turning a few heads as he dived in the shadow of the falling Titan suit, appearing again out of sight.

We all try to escape from the pain inside...

 

[ExtraWhiteRice]

"Slasher" Ryan Mulfis

I am Ryan; I'm of the Order~

"There you go, newbie, all fixed up." Slasher pulled out from under the newbie's Titan, pulling off his helmet to crack his neck before replacing it. He had been called back to base to help this newbie, and was missing the fun that Weiss's unit was having. This meant his mission for the day was forfeit-they rarely had anything happen. He went to the room where his suit was kept, where he suited up, and removed his suit. It was time to go home, despite him not wanting to be there. "Slasher, signing off. Call me next mission we have, I'm raring for some action." He said before putting the last piece-his helmet-on the stand with his suit.

Ryan stretched. Sometimes those suits felt cramped. He didn't want to head home quite yet, so he decided to hit the gym. If he couldn't get action, he could at least progress his own character building.

~I am Slasher, I cause disorder...

 

[Enshara]

Freya Dergunri and Rytx
Codenames: Songstress and Knight

"Do not cage the bird or you will never hear the beautiful song that it has to sing for you."

A bit startled by the sudden actions, she holds on to Jarid as the wall explodes and he carries her out. One hand holds onto him as the other makes sure her hood doesn't go flying off from the movements. As she barely catches the voice of someone ordering them to be killed, she groans inwardly. Just beautiful, here I thought this was just gonna be an easy day. she thinks to herself. As another individual emerges asking why they hadn't been invited to the party, Rytx shows up from almost out of no where. "Quite an impressive show back there. Not certain why they are still pressing after us. I destroyed a good amount of their little play toys." he says with a smile. Looking at Freya quickly, he nods his head to her. It was as if when he glanced over her he was making sure that she was uninjured.

[Out Of Coffee:]

"Do you really want to make an enemy of those stronger than you?"

 

[Zahzi]

"Yeah. Nice. All PEACHY-KEEN!" Jarid barked, still flying off.
As he did so, flyer-based Titan suits began to follow after him.
"OH FOR THE LOVE OF...." Jarid then began shooting back at the pursuers as he continued flying.
"These assholes are just ADAMANT today! What, did Weiss promise them a ********' candybar if they got me!?"

The soldiers Veerus fought with began to converge on the man.
While heavily-armored, it was clear they were prepared for another Titan. Not someone with Skulker's capabilities.
While formidable in numbers, Veerus would have no problem with the foot soldiers.

Weiss gave a grunt, hearing Rino's broadcast.
"Yes, yes. Just do your job and be quiet unless you do something useful." he replied as he watched from a distance the ensuing chaos from the fighting in front of him.
"This whole city needs to burn..." he growled as he made his way towards Skulker.
"And if I can't have Jarid's head on a plate, then I'm just going to have to settle for this reject!" he barked, sprinting towards his target.  

[ExtraWhiteRice]

"Ooh, I am SO frightened!" Veerus mocked as Weiss sprinted towards him. Of course, Veerus had a sword, not a gun, but it didn't make a difference to him what Weiss decided to do. If Weiss got to close, Veerus would just find a shadow-which wouldn't be hard with modern smoke technology.
"Maybe another day, don't let your anger control you and we may have a formidable battle!" Veerus jumped in the shadows again, coming out near the foot soldiers, killing a couple before pulling a smoke-bomb out of his cloak, throwing it at the ground hard as smoke popped up to mask him instantly. Yes, it gave them a signal to shoot the smoke-but with Veerus no longer in the smoke, because it provided an effective block from the sun. It wasn't that Veerus hated the sun, he just liked shadow more.
There was most likely a file on Veerus. It wouldn't have his true name, of course: It would say "Skulker" and name that he could travel through the shadow. He didn't know if they knew his ability to see in the dark, but it would make it much more fun when they had him cornered and he decided to take out a light.

Rino sighed audibly as he got Weiss's response. Weiss never truly liked Rino, mainly because he was afflicted. Rino tolerated Weiss being above him in rank--Rino would rise soon enough when he proved to be a valuable asset. Heck, maybe they would even give him a Titan suit, despite the fact that he was afflicted. Bending that excess metal would be very effective in a fight.

Hefting his metal staff, he found the city, though he was on the other side of where Weiss was attacking Jarid.
"As good a place as any to start looking..." He whispered to himself, whistling as he walked through the city. Could he be any less obvious?  

[Zahzi]

As the gunfire caused by the final attack began to die down with the Smoke, Weiss stood in the center.
One of the soldiers ran up to his side.
"S-sir. We've lost visuals on Skulker." he said, hesitantly.

"And what of Jarid and the unidentified pest?" he asked, still staring ahead.

"....We didn't get them si-" he would have a hard time answering as Weiss placed a hand in front of the soldier before a blast of an unidentifiable energy shot out of the palm, vaporizing the man instantly. The blast continued and tore through the home the fighting was taking place in.


"Your usefulness was noted. Everyone else. I SUGGEST you take pursuit." he told them all as he began to walk off while everyone else scrambled to find where the aerial Titans were to assist them."

"Sir...?" A random person asked, looking over at Rino.
"......What are you doing....?"  

[ExtraWhiteRice]

"I'm taking a stroll." Rino turned to the person who had approached him, giving a re-assuring smile. "Can one not stroll through the city?" This person would give him trouble if they knew Rino was of the order--most likely. "Have you seen anyone named Morris around here? I can't seem to find him anywhere!"

Jarid had gotten away, and whoever he was recruiting, Veerus suspected that he would have to meet those other two later--possibly take them through a test-mission to see their effectiveness. While Veerus could only stay in the shadow for a few seconds, travel in the shadow realm was quick. He was no longer even on the battlefield--he found himself in a house, far away from the scene of the battle. Hopefully no one was home. It seemed to be a child's room. As he wade through the toys on the floor, he silently opened and closed the door, going down the stairs to find the front door. Apparently there was not enough shadow around the house for him to have jumped into. Occasionally he came out in odd places, but usually he could control where he went.  

[Zahzi]

"Well...the part we're in right now is pretty thick with infighting and full of unsavory types..." the man replied to Rino.
The next question he gave made the man go completely pale. Fear was easily presented in his eyes and movements before he suddenly bolted away from Rino.
Quite the odd reaction.

"I don't like this, Derex." The blue haired woman said biting on her bottom lip. She folded her arms and, she looked down with a worried look on her face. A million of things were rushing into her mind as they stood by the chairman's office. Although the officers have been dispatch several moments ago, she decided to stay by Derex's side. She just couldn't leave him alone she tapped her finger against her flesh. "I don't like this one bit. she said refusing to look into Derex's eyes.

The chairman had called him and to Cyrene, it sounds fishy and it makes her feel uneasy to leave her boyfriend alone with a man whom honestly distrust and despise on so many levels. If it weren't for Derex, she wouldn't have gone through this. If you knew him, you would know why Cyrene stayed. You would know why she'd put up with an organization that she hates so much if you only knew how big of an ego that young man has. How stubborn he really is in the mask of a gentleman.

And as always he had that calm demeanor. "You worry too much Cyrene" He smiled at her. "I'm sure that task the chairman is going to give me won't be something I can't handle." His girlfriend rolled her eyes and glared. "Don't think that I don't know where this is going Derex. The big guy knows full well about your abilities and I just--" Cyrene was caught off when Derex patted her head. "Like I said, you're worrying too much." He said ruffling her hair. "You should go make your rounds and be a good little dog. Otherwise..." he gave her a smile. "...you'll die."

That kept her quiet, it wasn't as if she isn't aware of it but she knows full well what Derex meant by being a 'good dog' for Order. It just so happens that it's hard knowing just how much she resents it and she knows by experience how hard it is to keep herself at bay when she hates something. So far, she hasn't set the building on fire and she hasn't been going against orders but who knows when that will happen? Well, she supposes that she'll know what to do when she get there before then, she'll have to be a dog to protect him.

She breathed in and sighed. "Fine, I'll go but you better watch yourself. Give me a call when something comes up." He nodded back and let go of her. She nodded back, turned away and walked out.Now that that was out of the way, he turned to the door and knocked on the door a few times before coming in. "Sir, Derex Devone." then he bowed out of respect. "Reporting for duty." He smiled.

Meanwhile, Cyrene managed to run into, couldn't you believe it? It's the boss and at the first sight of him, she could feel it in the way he walked. 'Wow' She thought. 'Ain't he pissed?" As much as she would be cowering at the mere presence of the man himself. She stood quietly waiting for orders or a scolding and other things that the boss could lash out at her. At the moment, she's experiencing a whirl of emotions such as irritation and the usual loathing of the Order. She'd like to see just how far she could go with it.

Just as with Rino, the Chairman's classes reflecting off a monitor stared back at Derex.
"Ah. Devone. Good for you to come." he told the man in front of him.

"There were originally two separate assignments, but Rino was able to take one of them. So you won't be overworked this time....Though this one might be bad on its own." he told him before another monitor appeared near Darex much like it had with Rino.

"This particular assignment...You may want to solicit the aid of your 'special' friend for this one..." he said as an image jolted onto the screen.

"This is the Titan Suit belonging to Lieutenant Jack Caymen. Well, EX-Lieutenant." Clive corrected himself.

"He was dishonorably discharged after placing countless lives in danger after suffering a psychotic episode." he added.

"This image was taken two days ago at one of our Titan factories. Needless to say, that factory is no longer standing..." he sighed.
"Along with being a mass murderer with no qualms of his victims, Jack specializes in Flame Warfare. I would suggest that if possible not to engage him. Otherwise you might lose your girlfriend just to your own burnt face." he said with a chuckle before another image popped up. This one showing a condemned building.

"All sources show that this is his hideout. Energy readings show a high amount of flame-inducing agents being processed as well. A small generator/reactor refueling his suit no doubt." he said before the monitor disappeared.

"I would have sent our own special forces to deal with him, but most, if not all have a connection to the man. He was a war-hero years ago. Where you were only hired recently. So you only know enough to get by." he told him before there was a pause.

"I understand if you wish to back out of this assignment."

Derex listened intently to what the commander had to say. Throughout the whole briefing, he gave no such hints of discouragement. If he were cowering in fear, he wouldn't show it. He looked at the screens and found the whole situation quite amusing. Everything almost seems like a game to him, apparently and everything that Mr. Chairman had to give gets more and more interesting.

"Back out in this assignment" the Chairman says? Derex smiled at the thought, as if mocking that very statement. "Back out , sir?" He let out a small chuckle "My family knows no such words." It was a funny thing for him when people thinks that a Devone would back down. If it were in the clan's perspective, they'd think it to be a disgrace. He looked at the man with an air of confidence around him, facing him with that same eerie smile.

"I assure Mr. Chairman sir, I'll do whatever I can to complete the mission...and as for Cyrene." He paused for a moment, the expression in his eyes showed no signs of affection whatsoever. "...she's a soldier willing to die in the crossfire when her master wishes so. Dogs always die a dog's death, eh sir?"

((☆OOC: *A* OH GOSH. THANKS MAN! Also, sorry for making Derex so weird. XD))

(( Weiss is going to like'em. ))

"Yes. But she only seems to only listen to you." Clive replied.
"Now then. Your assignment is to deal with Jack, whose old Codename was 'Firestarter'."

"Brought in alive, killed at the scene, or somewhere in-between. It doesn't matter. It needs to be taken care of immediately if we are to stamp out Chaos later on. It won't help us if in the middle of our attacks on them he lights a literal fire under our rears, now does it?" he asked Derex as the door was opened behind him, a good amount of natural light being allowed to enter the room.
Even then, it never reached the Chairmen.

"I don't want this to become a public spectacle, is that clear?"
