Gambino Storefront
Neighboring the Beachfront Properties, the Storefront is a line of shops and restaurants located near the beach. Here one could find seasonal beach clothing, as well as gear for surfing or other 'fun in the sun' activities. Shady gaps between the buildings lead straight onto the beach, and can provide relief from the tropical sun.

"GRAH!" A short woman burst out the window of one of the shops, sending glass flying all over the sidewalk. Her hair braided back, she wore a metal breastplate and had a round shield strapped to each arm, one foot in diameter and with a mean steel spike protruding from the center of each. In lieu of a right eye, she had a marble.
"I, Ixri the Shieldbearer, shall prove all other forms of combat inferior to my Two-Shield Kick-Assery!"

"Are there none who would challenge me here?"
There were none. Most of the citizens of Gambino simply stared at Ixri, while the shop keeper tossed stale pieces of bread at her from behind.
Hm. A bakery.
"Your puny bread cannot harm me!" Ixri cried, spinning and skewering one of the loafs on her shield-spike. "Enough of this place!"
With that, Ixri headed towards Gambino Theatre.

People were less freaked out over here. Apparently all the pansies went elsewhere. There was a small crowd forming around a busted window.
"What's going on over here?" Gamma's sad face mask appeared behind the crowd, staring down at everyone.
Apparently someone jumped through a window and started shouting about badassery.

Coming into the area Miles had about four to five purses dangling from each arm. All in all it might have made a comical sight if not for the look on his face as he glanced about, looking for what had caused the commotion.

The technospartan still ran, his feet propelling him ever closer to the source of all the commotion. But when he arrived, it was already fleeing, but from what he could see, it was most definitely something worth facing. Coming to a momentary pause, he stood in the gap and pulled to his side once more, odd being. Just waiting and listening to those around him, he had no idea where it was going, so hoped one of his team-mates asked for their sakes.

"So what? Some store window model went apeshit and ran off? Where to?"
Someone in the crowd pointed. They were all pretty set on staring at the broken glass.
Gamma stood there without saying anything while a couple people stared at him. Adding a feinted juke, Gamma made like he was about to tackle half the crowd. They all flinched, and Gamma chuckled.
He started walking again. arrow Northeast.

Whatever it was that had come and left. With no time to waste Miles didn't drop a purse or take the time to steal anything else. Instead he bellowed out a scream that sounded across the open air.
"Where?"
Fingers pointed and in a much more subdued tone he muttered a thanks as it wasn't in his nature.
Following the guidance of others he did a fast walk in the direction pointed.

He laughed quietly to himself at the sight of the crowd reacting to the sudden show of the possibility there being yet another fight upon them. Instead of running, he hoisted his spear up from the ground and walked at Gam's side, "So, what's the plan? I am thinking we just kill it."
He chuckled darkly as he too left the area.

The passed the stores, holding the horn down upon the steering wheel to alert others of their presence. This was all great fun as they took out random objects, and perhaps a person or two.

The beach came insight, they swerved off the road suddenly, and Dukes of Hazarded it to the tourist and native attraction.

He hopped out, and notice that not a soul had followed him. Hey!

Yes there was.
"If we can get back, we can get some replacements."
"Hopefully."
These marble things seemed to be the focus point in the tool made to mess with him. He couldn't just go around without one? Cheesey glass orbs.

After the Spartan and trailing behind Gamma came Miles; and after him was...
Nothing.
Seemed no one else had discovered those strange shadows, maybe his team was just planed ******** enough to use them.

"Took you bastards long enough." He told them, and then pointed towards the general direction of the HQ. "I am going to assume that my marble wasn't the only one disappeared, if that's the case then we should hunt out anyone who is now marbleless and kill them before they can get new ones." It was an ingenius plan really, he had no doubt that they would be able to find people fighting and such, or distressing over how weak they were. This would easily point them out and they could be eliminated with ease. It would be the perfect spot for their trap, anyone who needed marbles and worked for the FoP would have to come back and purchase new ones. Tough luck, they were going to die. And so with the group following, they headed back.
