((Targeting Cage 3))

Well, things were serious. That had been plain from the start, but now they had a better idea of what was going on. It was neither worse nor better than she'd expected. She absorbed the information, then went to work.

Exhaling deeply, Amy stood and moved automatically towards the grappling guns. She'd done this particular drill more times than she could count. It was about as routine as the job got, really. She readied the gun, took aim at one of the monsters, and fired.
"Damn," she muttered as her shot came up short. There were reasons she usually used daggers, and not guns.

Success: Nope

[[ Targeting Cage 3 ]]

Mercutio knew this drill. He'd participated in it quite a few times, and lost friends to it even. Why he continued tolerating the killing was beyond him. Perhaps it was because he was too afraid to leave the hunter organization. After all, where would he go?

Shrugging, he raced into the battle. A few hunters had already started pulling a monster down. He smiled at that. At least there was some success.

He couldn't say the same for himself though. It seemed every time he lunged at the thing, it moved out of his reach. Darn things were too goddamn fast. Well, that and he was built for football defense, not agility.

TARGET CAGE 3

Dad's old hat. Good old Dylan Weaver was ready to ring in the new year with as much celebratory paraphernalia that was allowed on a mission in uniform. He wore it under his hood, the John Deere logo visible on the rim.

While he had arrived with high hopes this debriefing was beginning to grow alarming. Well... especially alarming at the mention of the horsemen clans. So they were here to stop the end of the world? If that meant protecting the folks down south at home he would damn well do it. He never left them really. In his heart and mind it was like a permanent hunting trip that the game brought back was their safety.

Grimly enough as it was, he gulped the lump of fear in his throat, his distinct adam's apple bobbing as he tightly clenched his gear at his waist then proceeded forwards with the first deed at hand. Wrangling the supply creatures was as desensitizing to him as skinning a rabbit.

"Ahleyup!" he called as he went to snag one of the creatures.

It was harder than it looked. A lot harder. The creatures writhed as the runic hunters descended upon them like ravenous beasts, ready to consume them alive. Which was essentially true. His expression sober, Cliff spun his lasso a few times, throwing it to try to snag one of FEAR-based animals, but his heart really wasn't in it.

He was conflicted. On one hand, if he caught one, it gave Isaac the best chance of surviving. On the other, if he didn't get his FEAR weapon charged, maybe the other boy wouldn't have to go in at all. He liked that idea -- if Isaac went in, Cliff wouldn't be there to have his back.

Selena slid over to cage three, smacking her lips loudly as she aimed her gun, chewing on some gum she'd procured from her pockets.

Maybe this would be a little better, and maybe her bad aim and sweaty palms were giving away how nervous she really was.

She was glad that Mark and C were also runic-- though she'd never say it.

Tucked inside her pocket was a jade dog, tiny and miniscule and barely heavy enough for her to register its presence. But it was from Velda, and it was for luck. Even if Selena HAD loudly bitched about it before leaving.

User Image - Blocked by "Display Image" Settings. Click to show.When the phone's buzzing woke them, Gabby immediately went into mission-mode. Something that Jamisson thankfully did not seem upset about. It was time to put away the distracting feelings and thoughts and don the mantle of duty. But there was an extra buzz of anxious tension humming in the back of her mind as she listened to Liam speak.

Crap, it wasn't as easy to shove the kiss to the back of her mind as she thought it would be. But she did what she could, focusing instead on the feel of the gun in her hands, training her sights on the target, and planting her feet so that when she pulled the trigger, her aim proved true.

"Fourth successful capture! Time to charge your FEAR!" she called out, subconsciously scanning to see how Jamisson had fared. She tried not to frown when she saw him winding the gun back up. Tsk. She hoped it was because of the alcohol and not because of recent events.

She liked the sound of that. She pulled his hand up and kissed the back of it, before letting it go.

"You'd better not." She teased him, her quirky smile beaming up at him. "Someone's got to keep the magic alive when I'm gone!"

She started to get antsy. She hopped from one foot to another, and rubbed her arms to keep the chill off. Her pole was dug into the ground, and she leaned on it heavily out of habit.

[TARGETING CAGE 4]

"I SAW THAT CLIFF." Gear yelled over all the runic hunters centered around the cgaes, a laughing note in his voice. He was all ready to make fun of the other male until his gun failed as well. Gear's hand brushed through his hair, in a sheepish manner.

"Well.. Boo. That's just boo. Really?"

Suddenly, one of the cages creaked as the fourth runic hunter snagged the monster within. Em squealed in delight, and plucked her pole up from the ground, waving it like a baseball bat.

"Sorry kiddo, them's the breaks!"

Target Cage #1

"Afzal? It's time to rise and shine. Let's show them your claws." Lowe had never spoken aloud in regards to his Weapon, but at those words he summoned his partner and held the voulge out in front of his body. The tip seemed to sing at being outside, finally summoned, and the youth pointed at the caged monster.

He raised the weapon up. . . only to hesitate and swing into a miss.

Marsh stepped up, waiting politely for Em and Lowe to take their shots before lifting his hand to the beaded necklace on his chest, calling to Miyako. As always, he could swear that the beads warmed under his touch; the weapon's light weight vanished from around his neck, changing to a solid heft in his hand as Miyako became a nine-tailed whip. She was hungry.

"Okay, princess. Free lunch," he said, and brought his arm around to send the beaded tips of the lashes snapping between the bars of the cage, biting into the trapped monster's body.

Miyako giggled like a little girl. Delicious, she told him.

Targeting Cage 3

A quick glance to the side showed that Selena was moving on to another cage. Seemed like their luck was a little on the shitty side tonight, which didn't seemed to bode well. Maybe this would be the worst of it.

If her biggest regret of the mission was that she missed some godwaful monsters for the first couple shots, that was nothing to wig out over.

Failing again, she forced a laugh, combing her hand through her hair as she looked to her friend.

"This is wack! What's up with us? Gotta get on our game."

Isaac's whip was all ready there, practically humming, waiting there patiently in a coil around his hand. He was watching the Runic Hunters work with a steadiness to his brown eyes. He'd done this sort of thing many times before, somber and eerie as it was, the creatures screeching and scratching in their small prisons. The air was cold and the area was dim. But wasn't it always?

"Thanks," he replied quietly, with a similarly small smile to Cliff-- despite the fact that the man had all ready turned away to get to his job. He was thankful that at least he had a familiar face helping out.

Targeting Monster in Cage 1

"Alright Dim, time for your chow." Cody teased, summoning the great sword to his hands. He would have to do this quickly. If he slipped up now, he'd risk losing a free charge and that had been so generously offered to them and that would be a shame.

:Just don't miss, you idiot.: Dimitri warned as Cody lifted the sword and in one swift motion; brought the edge of the blade down on the beast held captive.

Cliff shot Gear a grin as his lasso curled around the neck of the third creature, pulling tight as it lashed about. Grunting a little, the blonde strained to keep the creature still as two other hunters managed to get it with their guns as well, muscles in his arms and shoulders tightening as he leaned back away from it. It knew it was going to die -- he could see it in its eyes, in the way it screamed and thrashed, trying to get away. He watched it fight for its life for half a second more before looking over his shoulder at the younger hunter, forcing another grin.

Join the club -- they were all fighting for their lives.

"Yeah? Now what, small fry," he taunted back, a little more quiet than he normally would have, pulling hard on his lasso as the creature struggled.
