Special Forces. Highly trained. You know the deal. And still, he went down like a potato against the first resistance from the drug addict/thief. It was a clean shot, hit him on his right chest, and he went down, falling back on the stairs. The shotgun didn't sound again, and the guy didn't seem to be moving.

"...." He simply stared as Rage went Jenkinsing ahead, heedless of causing even more of a mess than there already was.
He didn't even know why the hell they were here--- except for a nagging feeling right in the back of his skull, like some kind of buzzing sensation that was barely there--- but you knew it was there.
Apparently his marble sense was tingling.
Following after Rage, he simply shrugged both shoulders.

"Well...I guess maybe there could be marbles in there..." Owle ventured, starting after both Vahn and Rage. Her mental senses scanning the building ahead of them to find.
"Oh, Athan's here!" she shouted happily, and followed much more readily behind Vahn and Rage. She was sure Athan was handling...whatever was happening, and they weren't going to get ambushed as soon as they stepped inside.

The guard on his side of the room was down already?
Tweak stared in shock a moment before making a recovery and jogging up the stairs. It was kind of chancy to leave the ground level, but there was a prize awaiting him that was just calling out.
So it should have come as no suprized when he reached the downed guard, pried his hand open, and took the shotgun. If nothing stopped him he would shove the pistol back into his waistline, slid the knife into his pocket, and start back down the stairs.
Slow, careful steps backwards with occasional stops and glances over his shoulder.
...This all assuming he got the damn thing.

Tripping slightly over the remains of what was once the front door of Gambino Mansion, Rage made a few stylish shoulder-rolls and neck snaps before waiting for his team to catch up. "Didn't hurt a bit," he said with confidence, sensing several others inside the building.
Most of them unknown, but one of them was....
"Angel! You in here?!" It was a yell of part shock, part surprise, and part yelling just for the hell of it.

((Kind of late on the roll, but yeah.
Dessie will be right back. xp ))
Angel had her back to Athan and Tweak, but she kept looking behind her shoulder to move with them. She was trying to keep a good view of the guards. If they started to fire shots she was going to worry about protecting the group, apposed to sending arrows at the guards.
The two of them could worry about taking down the guards. That didn't mean she didn't keep her arrow up, pointed at one guard.
She heard a familiar voice, nearly stumbling from reaction. "Rage!?" She called out, trying not to lose too much focus on the task at hand.

((Tracking. Okay, so Athan just sworded a guy. Tweak is hiding behind him, Angel is hiding behind them/covering them. They are at the bottom of those wide stairs in the mansion's entryway. The guards are all up the stairs from them. (Excepting the sworded one on the floor) So Angel wouldn't have to have her back to Athan to keep an eye on the guards by my tracking. In fact she'd probably be perpendicular to him.
And Rage, Owle, and Vahn are approaching from behind Athan. Leaving Athan and crew right between Rage and the stairs.))

OOC Athan just sworded the rod guy advancing onto Tweak. Tweak used Athan as a kind of shield, followed him in, and shot the guy with the shotgun. Angel held back and is trying to hold the other guy coming down the stairs at bay.
So Tweak is like...
Oh here on the left quickly moving down the stairs.
While Dessie just sworded a guy in the center.
And Angel is hanging back around our original location with her bow.
Everyone else just entered the building and is at the entranceway.

"Hey! You retard, there could be more up there!"
Athan didn't have time to turn around and greet the others that were coming in from behind him. Even if it was Owle, he had to keep the little goober he dragged into this place from getting shot.
So up the stairs Tweak went, and Athan would have taken off after him, had he not been jabbed in the shoulder by a second house guard.
Why he was being jabbed in the shoulder by something many would consider to be nothing more than stick, he would never know.
As a result, he loosened his left hand, aimed to grab the guard by the collar of his shirt, and then pull the hapless goon towards him as he came down with a headbutt to knock the guy unconscious.
He'd probably write an apology note and stick it to the refrigerator before they left. Or not. Really kind of depended on how many people were left to sword.

The why of the jab would become apparent soon enough. Right as the rod hit the prong snapped out with a flick of a button, and the voltage poored right into Athan as the cattleprod went hot.
If Athan could tough it out to follow through with his headbutt of doom it'd crack the poor sap across the nose, blooding him up and knocking him out.
And, up there on the landing, more guards came. Five this time. Three more with the rods. A type of stun rod, obviously. Two more with shotguns, snapping them up to aim at the crowd at the bottom of the stairs, both trained on Athan rather than the less dangerous Angel or Tweak. They came too late to stop Tweak from his looting however. Tweak was safely behind the meatshield by the time they realized what was going on.

Getting cattleprodded wasn't the greatest feeling in the world. But the forced contractions of his right arm had little effect on what his left arm was doing, and Athan was well-known for being able to grit through pain to get to his foes.
So the guy's nose was soon inversed, and the burning sensation in his right arm was suddenly gone. He was also able to snag his sword before he dropped it due to the shock.
Then more guards. More shotguns, more rods, all of which appeared to be as though they were aimed at him. Jeeze, it was like he was doing this whole thing all by himself.
Athan grinned, a tiny stream of the second guard's blood trailing down his forehead.
"Which one of you guys is next?"
He asked to the crowded landing.
(So...should this be the start of said desired post order?)

Well... Rage figured he should probably help these guys. His best friend's girlfriend was hanging out with them, so they had to be cool. Plus, Owle seemed to recognize the huge guy charging up the center.
"Don't call me a retard, retard!" Growled Rage, most likely hearing something that was not directed at him. Even so, he began to charge up the stairs just as more guards came out.
((Cramming more people onto the stairs. Awesome!))

That was pretty cool, but now he was right back where he started. Managed to make it back to Athan only to have the guy start issuing challenges to the landing.
Had it been anyone else Tweak would have just bolted. But this guy was obviously totally insane, so it was okay. If anything he could still make a run for it later.
So Tweak was just kind of peering around Athan, slowly edging his way to the side to avoid potentially fatal gunshot wounds. Also this way should the need arise he would not end up shooting Athan cause that would suck.
Quick glance over his shoulder as more people started to appear, first he was aware of them. But neither of these two were freaking out so...
...Oh, the guys from the CoJ, great. Maybe this meant they would survive. Posting Order So Far? Arc Dessie Rage Elevar Just have people add themselves as we go?

Angel wasn't too worried about the guards coming after her and Tweak, just yet. They seemed to have their focus on Athan, and he seemed to be doing quite a good job taking care of them. When they pulled their weapons, she did however get ready to put a shield up around everyone.
Seeing Rage, she could have hugged him, if it wasn't for a huge fight going on. She hadn't seen him in so long. It was nice to see her old friend.
((Yeah, posting order would be good. xd ))
