Justice
Justice sat down cross legged from Strength and began breaking his rifle down just as rapidly.
"Yeah, well he will. Have you seen him, a bull of a man. I believe he will take on Gluttony head to head. I'm waiting for Sloth and Wrath and Envy. They will be the most dangerous. Never wake a sleeping giant and that is Lucifer's brother for you." Justice laid out ammunition and the component of the rifle.

"I don't think we'll have any problems with Sloth."
Strength paused to blow sharply into the chamber of her Karbiner. She eyeballed it before looking up at Justice.
"He's always seemed like a bit of a push-over to me."
She shrugged and began to put it all back together again.

Envy
"Lust, Pride and Greed are all dead?"
Envy was rapidly losing interest in the conversation. She just wanted to do her job and go back home. 'How long do you think it will take, Wrath?' She could feel the Jet starting it's decent pattern to land on the George Bush.
"Wrath's right. CIA or not, you're going to die, little mensche. Humans do not kill Virtues or Sins."

Lilith
'You keep me from having any fun at all.' Lilith couldn't help her pouting. She never liked it when Lucifer denied her well earned slaughter. She turned back to Viki, a smile on her lips again.
"Come on, let's go get ourselves a cocktail or two and then we'll practice a little more with your glamour. And maybe, if there is still time left over, we'll try out one of your eyes. Vegetables before deserts, sweetie."
She kissed Viki lightly and laced her fingers through Viki's and lead the way out of the room back down into the bar to fix her a drink.

Justice
"Yes, the man who orchestrated the Fall of nearly half the Choir is a pushover." Justice laughed lightly as he remembered Sloth, Lucifers twin coming to him first. Justice had said no and told him not to speak of it again or face his sword. Now Sloth was only second to Lucifer, but he had a feeling that Sloth had planned it that way.
"Sloth is more intelligent than we give him credit. I also have a feeling that he is more ferocsious than we believe he is, but hey that's just a feeling." Justice assembled his Saber and slid a clip home, pulled the charging handle and set the gun to safe.

Wrath
"We are landing Lord. If the boy is to go in after the assassins, then he'll need something a little faster. An Egg is waiting for him." The jet landed and Wrath would have gotten up, but Lucifer held his hand up for them to stay.
"Something more, the battle will not wait, I can hear jets launching as we speak." Wrath moved Envy off his lap and stood, but was thrown back into the seat by Lucifer's power.

Lucifer
"You will wait, the war can and will wait. They have no where to go except into the sea. Lucias is not going after those who assassinate our comrades, you two are once Lucias has found them. My brother will take charge of the newly formed American Allied Military, of the newly formed American States." Lucifer stood and Lucias knew it was time to go.
"He will have two hours, in that time you are to prepare and warm up for your hunt. Remember you aren't hunting humans, you are hunting our bretheren. Do not underestimate them like you did in Vegas." Lucifer exited the plane, Sloth was waiting, actually up and not looking tired for once.
((I will draw up Sloths Profile tonight and post it tomorrow. Going home tonight, so no net.))

Ysane Ixil
"I don't care if the man is as dangerous as a thousand paper cuts drowned in lemon juice; the Sin never does anything. It's like the nuclear silo's these humans like to collect. Full of finely tuned machines of war that never get used."
Strength shrugged again. She loaded a fresh set of clips into the Karbiner, flicked the safety on and set the rifle to one side. She kicked off her boots and closed her eyes. Soldiers learned to sleep when and where they could, even if it was in a hole in a wall.
[It's cool; I need to sleep anyway.]

Envy
Envy watched Lucifer leave before standing up and stretching.
"He's in a strange mood."
She was not especially worried about hunting down the Virtues. Finding them was easy; it was killing them that would be a touch harder, but not that bad. A couple of well placed bullets and they would be home free. And now that Wrath wasn't being limited by a human body, the Virtues would be Swiss cheese. And not the yummy kind.

Lilith
Lilith sat beside Viki at the bar downstairs, sipping at her brightly colored vodka slowly. After a few minutes of relative silence, Viki began to tell a story of one of her days at school; memories that hadn't been whipped away by the counter aging process. She tossed her head and giggled as she spoke. As far as Lilith could tell, the story concerned a prank played by one girl or another, but Viki's telling of it contained a second, sub-textual level. It was as though she recognized the childish nature of what she was talking away and wanted to tell Lilith that she was too grown-up for such things. But where her own interests and tastes now lay, Viki seemed unsure. She stammered a little before trailing off mid-story. Lilith turned to raise an eyebrow at Viki.
"That sounded like fun. And sexy. I wish I could've been there."

Justice
Justice mused that even their artifice bodies needed sleep. Scratch that even their minds needed rest. Seventy two hours was a long time, but he would be able to stay awake for another seventy two if he chose. He moved gingerly and sat next to Strength, found her hand and held it as he slipped into sleep.
Two hours later he was woken up by scratching outside their hole. No one should know we are here, maybe an animal. Caught scent of our unnatural smell and came to investigate. Justice closed his eyes, they would move in another hour.

Lucifer
Lucifer and Sloth had been inside the war room of the massive aircraft carrier for two hours. Sloth had been listening for the most part as Lucifer made strategies and contingencies. Finally the twin of Lucifer stood and began changing those plans subtly. Finally they nodded and Lucifer left one direction, Sloth the other. He found Wrath and Envy on the flight deck preparing to leave.
"Lucias found them, he sent the coordinates. Make it quick. You have two more as well but Courage and Wisdom are the priority. Strength and Justice will be needed to complete our plans. Go now." The helicopter roared to lift the thing up and was flying towards the now thunderous sounds of artillery and gunfire.

Wrath
They had landed ten minutes later and were now approaching the hole that Wisdom and Courage had taken up. Wrath had his grenade launcher lined up for the shot.
'Execute the plan.' Envy had come up with this one. Just like smoking out a rat, except you normally didn't do it with a smoke grenade or a automatic grenade launcher.

Avanish Lucias Mehar
Lucias walked through the chaos of the upset armies as they reeled over the loss of their commanding Generals. He was looking for something, anything really, to point him in the right directions. He'd found one set of Virtues, hiding in a cleverly concealed hole along the Wall and dropped a tacking beacon by the door casually as he walked by. He didn't think that this other seat of killers would be stupid enough to hide in the same basic area; no one was. The other set of tracking beacons lay heavy in his pocket.

Envy
Envy pulled the pin and gave the smoke grenade a casual toss towards their target; the metal cylinder popped and a orange-greenish cloud began it's hissing escape. The gas had been another one of her inventions, a modified version of Mustard gas from the early twentieth century. It was more caustic then its parent form and it tended to strip the neural pathways of the brain when inhaled. It flowed into the small dugout, filling it; she brought up her M-16 and readied it. A few moments later, Wisdom and Courage came spilling out of their dugout. She opened up immediately on the camouflaged Virtues, shooting the pair of them square in the forehead. Wrath's grenades found their targets soon after her's and the Virtues were shredded to itty-bitty pieces.
"Not as fun as I thought it would be."
