Sam paused. "Well, I wouldn't mind some helpers, the last volunteer was quite the disaster themselves and we're a little behind in quota, but I wonder..." She trailed off, clicking her tongue as she stood face to face with Dakota, looking up. "Are you just big words or can you really deliver? I won't ask for pay if you can bring me back some well, new faces for our weapons count I've been waiting on for quite a while. They've tightened alert in certain parts of Halloween making student smuggling just that much more difficult for me. If you are as good as you promise to be...well, we'll just have to see now, wont we?"
She adjusted her scarf. "How busy are you right now, big boy? "

"Not busy enough, if you want to take a midnight stroll on all hallows ground babe." He looked at Wilson before nodding the hunter off, If it was stealth, he'd pick his training up with Wilson another time, for now...
"You don't know till I deliver right? Let's just gamble on it. The worst that can happen is I die, and we're out a moon hunter. Worst for you is you gotta find someone else to do the work. Somehow I feel like I'll get the worst of it."
"Let's start then."

"Volunteerig before you even know what you're getting into, smooth." That was sarcastic as Sam fired a quick text before looking back up. "Well, we have clearance for the mission and portal, I hope you brought supplies because this isn't the nice part of my job, this is the part where you do the dirty work and I turn a blind eye on things. If you think you still can stomach it, I'll meet you at the lighthouse portal in thirty. Bring some clothes you wouldn't mind getting torn to shreds, something extremely durable to protect your face with and-" She did a once-over of Dakota again, "... Some Axe would not kill you. But it might just kill me." Smile.
She waved a hand and was off gathering her own preperations.

"Yeah well, No one ever said I was the BEST womanizer...or the smartest moon in the sky." Dakota shrugged, "I'll meet you at the portal then." He blinked at her forewarnings and nodded.
----
As he headed to his room, a small side trip was made to the life labs for bandages, just in case. Then to his room where he dropped any nice clothes and replaced with more...easy to shred? He wondered why she worried about his stomach and what he could handle.
His eyes narrowed though at her comment of his scent and shook his head. he wasn't going to /doll/ himself up for a mission. Axe could wait. Okay a spritz...okay one more just in case.
With the clothes, Bandages and the googles mask combination from the pole mission that Rep had lead, Dakota was at the Lighthouse just in time. Probably with five minutes to spare. At least he hoped so....
"So...."

-"Honestly it's not thar bad a deal, I'd consider it." Sam was chatting almost one-sidedly with one of the lighthouse portal Hunters on duty, who seemed a little flustered, at whatever the topic of conversation was. She shrugged when she saw Dakota, breaking into a lopsided smile. "Oh, I better get myself all prepared, the cavalry of one is coming."
She neared Dakota. "I'm not into those touching speech things so let's make a few points clear. The first is you follow everything I say while we're there. Nut up or shut up, or I will make you. Second, speed is key. The longer we stay the more suspicion we'll draw and like it or not, that's bad news for both of us. And oh, if you're being talked to, please don't reply, our clients are as finnicky as hell already."
Sam waited a bit for Dakota to at least give some sort of confirmation.

"Really Sam? I kind of thought you'd be the one to spill your feelings and beliefs and tell me that in the end, we did our best..." Dakota didn't have much time to react to Sam's rules beyond a short..."Yes Ma'am..."
Mentally he was like, Don't talk to strangers. Listen to Sam, and follow what she says. Protect nuts in case the crazy death huntress thought it was okay to crush them.

Right in front of the portal, Sam paused. "Right because sometimes we have to use a bit of force, paper golems won't really help much so if you screw up, you're on your own. Oh, and last thing-"
- A burlap sack of a cloak was tossed towards Dakota-
- "You'll be doing everyone and me a favour honey."
The portal seemed to lead directly to a storage shed of some sort, though cobwebs seemed to be more than standard issue in Halloween. Sam herself was wearing a much nicer dark maroon cloak. She moved swiftly, the door shutting closed behind the two as they made their way through two corridors, what seemed like countless doors, and a staircase. Surprisingly, they ended up in another what seemed like the Halloween equivalent of a large storage shed, complete with large, sealed crates. Two figures were waiting for them, both notably of Halloween, one scaled, the other lithe and slightly feline. They both kept their eyes trained on Sam and Dakota.
"Usual shipment?" The scaled creature flipped a coin casually.
Sam wordlessly pulled out a rather generous bag of something that glimmered a deep red, tossing it over in a casual arc, which the recipient caught in one clawed hand.
The taller nodded. "Done and done. Now about next week's shipment-"
- Clank-
-All figures in the warehouse froze. Sam turned to Dakota first, as if expecting him to be the culprit before slowly looking around. She tensed-
- "Freeze! This operation has been-"
- The Death Hunter didn't wait for the gripping conclusion as several hiding Bogeymen revealed themselves, instead, shouting a loud "Duck!", as she pulled several objects out-
-There were loud blasts of light, smoke, shrapnel flew left and right-
- Other figures not Sam were rushing the Hunters.
"Well?" Sam shouted, currently half-engaged in pulling a small crate through the smoke and chaos, "Do what you're supposed to do and get us out of here!" Ooc - PROTECT SAM (and the crate). Dakota and Sam must escape back to the portal with the crate! The crate has 25 HP while Sam has 60 HP. For each step Dakota takes forward, roll 2 10-sided dice. The first roll is the damage Dakota defends EITHER the crate OR Sam, the second is the damage done to BOTH. You need to roll 8 times (take 8 successive turns) to escape! So for example, I roll 2d10 8,9. I can defend Sam OR the crate for 8 of the 9 damage, but the one not defended takes the brunt of the 9 damage. - If Sam's HP hits 0 she will DITCH DAKOTA and he will get stuck... On his own. Talk about a mission failure! -If the crate hits 0 HP you lose the goods/ also fail the mission! When you have successfully escaped, quote Zoobey!

Dakota solemnly headed after the death huntress, sweeping the cloak over himself and keeping his mouth shut for now as they were led into the shed. The first thought to come to the for front was...Shaddddddddddddddyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy......The second was what did she mean do everyone a favor? he wasn't trying to hide his presence...oh no he was. Too bad no one would get to see his gorgeous looks.
The second was....what were they doing here? he perked as things were exchanged and they found themselves poorer in something....and richer in a crate with a questionable item in it.
Once the exchange was over, Dakota cocked his head when...
s**t blew to hell.
"Sam!" The hunter had lost sight of the other in the smoke and light when he saw her gripping the crate and herself. Hissing, he went over to her and picked the crate up, Chama summoned instantly.
"let's get the ******** out of here then!" he snarled, pushing past her to make sure none of the creatures touched the crate...for now.
Sam: 50/60
Crate: 25/25
Dakota is Defending: Crate for 10, Damage is 10. Crate gets 0 damage! Sam gets 10 damage.

Dakota hissed as he felt the blast of something against him. The crate fortunately didn't take any damage, since he had curled it inside him and blocked the hit. On the other hand, Sam took the full brunt of the attack and thus....
"Sam stick closer!" And stop shooting off things every, s**t.

Between helping Sam and the crate, Dakota swore he was going to get them killed.
He felt more attacks around and the shed with its small space was making it hard for the hunter to switch from the crate to sam and then fending off anyone that got close.
God please let him make it out of here.

"Same, Securing a way out would be the best route right?" Of course the moon had never had to worry about securing a way out...he was a moon. His kind was always on the front lines and the only thing that kept them alive was moving behind the suns when they attacked.
Instead he looked around hastily, the door and windows looked blocked and whatever the cloaked creatures were kept rushing them.
Another creature went for Sam, and the moon moved, using the Crate as a barrier for the huntress.

So far so good, The huntress was now sticking close to him as he rushed them out of the shed and back into the halloween grounds.
Of course they would follow but with Dakota passing the crate to Sam now, he had hands to defend and well...did so. "Not touching them!" he growled, his sword flaming with warning.

At least he thought they were good until even more surrounded them. Jesus did they just multiple out of the woodwork for this occasion alone? He didn't even know what he was defending beyond that he was!
The crate was grabbed from Sam's arms, her call to get it back fueled him to disspate the creature and pick up the crate in return. unfortunately, Sam call earned her a scrape along her body from the boogeymen and a curse as Dakota realized he left the hunter open for attack.

"Close, We're so close!" Dakota could almost feel the portal again, and pushed Sam farther to get her closer. The closer she got, the sooner he'd get them both safely back in deus.
Or at least Sam safely back with whatever she was carrying in her little goodie box.

THERE! He saw it! The light at the end of the tunnel. The portal to the island. With no more beings following them, he relaxed, desummoning Chama as he grinned.
"Not bad for my first time-" the instant the words were out, the boogeyman pushed past and struck at Sam and the crate together. Growling, Dakota pushed himself up and hit the creature as hard as he could, sending it back to whatever inky black hell it came from and looked at the huntress.
"s**t, s**t I'm sorry Sam, Are you okay babe?" More importantly, were you and the CRATE okay? "s**t, do you want me to heal you guys??" He had bandages, and his sword.....
HE COULD HEAL WITH TENDER TOUCHES SAM!!!
