It was probably best that his team didn't say too much to him.

Another day went and came and Leon got more sleep than normal. Lazy days were nice, but the sacrificed training was sure to catch him when this was all over. But for now, there were still tasks that needed to be completed. He didn't bother looking into the video surveillance room this morning, Wilson had a good handle on that from the other day. But there was always time to practice grapple moves and some throws in case they were necessary. It wasn't even an hour in when the phone on the sidelines began to play "let it snow" and the boxer found himself leaping over to answer it and the text from Tedan that came up.


It was so odd, after the past few days, it was hard to stay irate at the fellow trainee. must have been something in the air or water supply.

Text to Tedan
Drills are going well, I can at least hogtie it if its a small animal, if its large, I can try to turn it into a rodeo. I brought some supplies over to the cage site, feel free to use some.
it didn't take much time for him to clean up the mess of broken materials and change into less funky clothes and wandered over to the build area group six had designated, however this time the nice supply he built up was in shambles next to a rather crude setup of shackles that lay bolted to a plate on the floor. however after a few taps with his foot, he deemed it rather sturdy for it purpose. and the song continued as another text found its way to his phone, this time from Vanessa, a even better person to hear from.
The life hunter flicked through his phone idly as he scanned the message and surveyed over the site and its chains and texted the girl back.

text to Vanessa
Electricity, sounds like a fun idea in case it gets antsy, maybe a low voltage shock to keep it in check, how does that sound? PS: we might need to work on this containment cell some more in that case.


a restraint made from metal, paired with live voltage....... sounded like a bad idea. they needed insulation fast, glass or wood or plastic. heck he was sure lego blocks might help, but that shackle system was got going to cut it. either way, not much could be done until a new system was planned and the only way that could happen, was if a blueprint was made. that in itself took up much time, sketching, mulling over and editing, but the concept was starting to take form, a simple area that had ample room and a observation area seemed suitable to him and then sending the document to the others took up the rest of the life hunter time as the sun began to set.

Tomorrow would show how that cage was going to go.

Maybe it was his experience with bars and handcuffs, but when Harrison sat down to build a cage, he really built a cage. Alright, so maybe it wasn't fancy or magical, but he'd enjoyed it more than anything he'd done so far.

He spent one hour on drills, because he needed the practice.

The fourth day, Otto was physically tired of doing drills. He decided it best to settle for a bit and figure out how to care for the creature.

He did so poorly, he quit after only a couple of hours.

Candace wasn't much of a builder. She'd never been very good at 'arts and crafts'. She once tried to make a quilt with her grandmother as a child and it became the world's strangest sweater with six arms.

Don't ask how it happened.

Her first thought had been to...ah...ask H if she could borrow a few cages for the mission, and while he had been more than willing to flirt with her he had in the end turned her down on the cage front.

She'd tried more than once to no avail.

Cage building was not Candace's forte.

Dy day four the tolls of the past few were heavy, causing her to REALLY not want to get out of bed in the morning...

Sucking it up, both from her own state of mind and Takerus pushing, she did a split shift again today. Spending time in both drills and building... she wondered what tomorrow would bring.

Dakota stretched as he started working on a defense for the creature. He needed to get stretched up and limber if he was going to be battling against this thing. He texted Before and Ariane before sighing.

Another visit to the library and surveillance room later, Jordan had a vague idea of how big they might be able to expect the creature to be. A rough estimate, at least, which he could bring back to Petra so that she could finish figuring out the blueprint.

Once that was done, he assisted with the construction; while he might not be particularly good at drawing up plans, he could follow instructions like nobody's business. By the end of the day, with the group's combined handiwork, the cage actually looked something like a cage.

Four days in and Ryan figured it was time to start another task. He could spend says on drilling and only improve so much ( Which to be honest, was barely enough ). He didn't have the time for it. There were other tasks to be done, building among them, and spending all his time on drilling and getting no where wasn't going to get them done. It was time to move on.

The one thing that Robert could always be counted on, was that he did one thing at a time, and he did the job until he was done. He could have gone off and worked on building with his group, but he had fallen behind on his drills, and that was unacceptable. So he found himself there once more, finishing his drills up. He only hoped he wasn't holding his team back..

Ariane hadn't been at her best; in fact, she might had botched up the drills, much to her own disappointment... She just wasn't as into the assignment after that text from Aria; it made her feel kind of upset about herself, especially since she belonged to the Intel-gathering division.

Once again, she hit the books, the surveillance room, and went around harassing the more experienced Hunters for any information.

Reine had heard that Harrison and Candace were working on the cage, which warranted a visit. They'd managed to accomplish a lot in just one day- and with her help, they'd managed to fear-proof it as well!

There was little left to do for prep work, which meant focusing more on drills; Reine didn't want to get killed or something before they got the monster into its cage. The alternating schedule she'd been using for previous days helped slightly, and with Eva's help, they'd figured out the creature's traits and habits, and even managed to confirm Reine's guess about what it ate.

At the end of the day, she went back to helping with building the cage. Everything was coming together really nicely!

Tori was happy to get up today to get some more work done since things were going well and for the fact that she was strangely happy to even be doing some building since she had hardly built anything and a cage wasn't one of them at all.

Text Message
Did alright on those drills and going to be mostly working on the cage today and a little bit of prep-work as well.


After that text was sent Tori headed over to were there group was building there trap and saw that there had been some good progress on it and she added to the materials that were already there and quickly sent, Vanessa a text when read her text.

text to Vanessa
That does sound like a good idea and one that would work quite well too, as we don't want it to escape.


Organizing the materials a little as she studied to what the others had built as she didn't want to have any wasted time in her messing up what the others had already built to this point. Once getting a good idea on where they were going Tori started to build and did a good job for the first two hours. Then her weapon once again derailed her thoughts and didn't get anything done for an hour and after that hour had a breakthrough. But for the next two hours after that she did alright as she was getting a little tired of building since it wasn't her strong point. So for the last two hours she did some prep-work as she didn't want to have the creature die on them before they got to study it after they had captured it.

Have the cage fleshed out enough to work now, babe. Now you can make it even better when you have the time, alright? I'm going to run around and get some last minute info and touch up the living-arrangement bit I've been setting up. If you get any extra info I can use, lemme know.


iloveyouDIE
I got the cage working at minimum. I'm doing some research and finishing up the habitat-thing I've been working on, but beyond that we've got our bases covered for the bare minimum. If you're up for a last day of work, try and get some time put into some things we've had less time put into, please?



The entire situation of putting her two favorite boys to work with each other when they didn't actually like each other was.... a bit straining, but Cass hoped that if she played as the middle man a bit with requests and the like, it'd work out better. She had to maintain things as well as she could with how stretched she was for working.

But she regretted nothing. Plus she'd get the best sleep ever that night after throwing a lot of work out that day. It wasn't the best compared to some of the other groups, but.... for a small group of three, they hadn't done bad at all!
