Hearing his brothers concentrated efforts to break into this little holding cell, Will held out a bit longer; hoping the man could break through the cage of Ice he was held within. Luck was not on his side unfortunately, for the loud pounding noises ended in the sound of impaled meat; signifying the end of Will's stalling, lest Ice make good on his threat. Ambling over to Ice, William would hesitantly take the mans hand; hoping to God, Satan, Buddha or whomever was listening that he would not be turned into some kind of odd slave or abomination.

Poor Will.
Iden was going to murder the crap out of him if he ever found out he took Ice by the hand.
Impalement wasn't going to stop the angry DeSeer, more or less because the impalement wasn't going to hit anything important. Slamming upward would indeed put Iden in the cage, right as Will and Ice left. What did this mean? He caught a glimpse of them fading together, and knew in a heartbeat that he was about to be shafted.
God. Dammit.
Thus he immediately went to panic mode, smashing at the ground to fall back to the floor below. He was yelling through the radio, making sure Alyna was privy to the situation...and that if he didn't show up, get out, come back when things calmed down. After all, if Iden were trapped, it wasn't like anybody was gonna get him out. No worries.

All well and good boss man but...
...the targets are down, all save one. And he aint a threat.
*Ice had been as good as his word. The ice around the rooftop started to melt fast, just as it did in the chests of the four impaled Garou, dead as doornails now.
As for Mathieu, he was sprawled against the side of Will's vehicle, out cold with a spike of ice through his heart. In itself, this one piece wasnt melting, and Javos was left with just a few cuts on his hind quaters and nothing worse.
Of Will and Ice, there was no sign. *

Landing hard, bloodied, and angry, Iden spent a few seconds in frustration slapping a fresh round into his weapon. Will was gone, and Iden had called it. Still, Will had needed the field experience, meaning there'd been little other choice. Still, giving the order knowing the risks and seeing them happen?
Iden was beyond frustrated.
Roger that. Secure the target, don't kill him yet. Javos? I want you to get on the horn with home, tell Jan to try and get the matriarch's attention. She'll want to know what happened to her newest childe. Alyna? We still have our job to do. I'll meet you at the site.
As he spoke, Iden took a quick drop from the hole in the wall he had made. Now on the road, he began to walk along the street, grenade launcher in hand.

*The orders from Iden were recieved and carried out. Javos dumped Mathieu into the back seats of the truck, then drove it away to the wadi a few miles away from the city on this side.
Alyna meanwhile took off towards Iden;s location, and then down to the white building by the docks, looking up at it from across the street as she waited for Iden*
If they know Mathieu is down, they arent showing it, and the place is still well guarded... whats the plan?
*In the wadi, Javos called home and started talking to Jan. He would fill Iden and Alyna in when they returned*

Alyna was the faster moving of the two. She would be on site first, giving her a few minutes to gather a detailed observation of the area.
When Iden finally reached Alyna, he dropped to a crouch at her side.
Here's the deal. I need you to be my restraint. Will's just done the most damn fool thing he could, and right now I'm of mind to start breaking people. What we need to do is either cause a distraction to pull the guards away so one of us can slip in and take care of the mission, or quietly evade or eliminate the guards for the same end. What's your take? How many, what are the routes? Lets get details before committing.

Well, distraction would be faster, and less messy, but either option leaves a lot of variables.
You might be able to talk your way in, I certainly cant. Its a Pentex site. Somehow, going in much at all seems unwise. You have your nemesis, is anything more really that necessary?
*Alyna was merely sounding ideas off him, not necessarily backing out or getting cold feet. Just as Javos had followed Will's decisions, she would follow Iden's, without hesitation*

Iden nodded, then leaned back to seat himself and rest his legs for a few moments. Alyna brought up good points, he had to admit.
The way I see it, eliminating Matthieu is one thing, but it seems like a job half done. We know he's dealt with Wyrmtouched, and any pit we find should be marked for destruction. But on a far broader scale...I'm trying to march a fine line here. Given the clan's position, we need just a good enough reputation for getting s**t done that people won't mess with us, but not make ourselves so big a target by unilaterally angering everyone.
That bit said, Iden flicked the sights on his weapon, clearly putting serious thought into his next step. His eyes lingered on the firearm, only drifting to Alyna as he came to his conclusion.
But you have a point, this may be a job for another time, with a team prepped for it in specific.

Considering the destruction we wrought in Mexico, and the narrow escape with the Sabbat there, it would be wise to be specifically prepped.
Besides, Mathieu is still alive. My personal recommendation would be to pump him for information before killing him, to make a more informed choice.
If you decide to go on in now though... I will back you up.
*Alyna rested back on her heels, earnest as she watched Iden, more than happy to charge in if he preferred*

And this, mate, is why I asked you to come with.
Iden nodded, and stood. The launcher was slung, leaving him to gesture for Alyna to follow.
C'mon, Javos is waiting for us. We ought to catch up and get moving. All we can do for Will is pray right now.

*Nodding, Alyna accompanied Iden back to the meet spot with Javos. The male cat was leaning against the hood, relaxing it seemed, but his voice was a little tense*
Called Jan, but he cant raise the Lady. I also had to duct tape idiot features, I got tired of the cursing after that spear finally melted. Good thing there was rope in the vehicle.
Whats the plan?
Home.
How?

The same way Alyna and I got here. Civilian flights. Lemme see the hostage.
It was right to business when Iden arrived; he moved with a purpose towards the back of the jeep. It was about time to finish off a long standing grudge, for one. For two...well, Iden had some steam to vent.

...I assume you're going to end this guy HERE then.
*moving away from the truck, Javos would let Iden open the back doors to find Mathieu rather expertly bound on the left hand side, seat belt keeping him upright, duct tape preventing much more than grunts of displeasure.
Hate lurked in his eyes, but it redoubled to loathing when he realised under whose orders he was being detained. Iden was NOT the man he wanted to see*

There wasn't any mistaking Iden's intent; Matthieu was not going to be walking away from this encounter. Hatred met with cold wrath as he looked the arms dealer in the eyes.
Glad you remembered. No Glasswalkers to save you this time, mate.
With a sharp tug, Iden ripped the gag from Matthieu's mouth, letting the angry hostage have a few words.
