001 | video | forward dated to during sirens

[gotanothercall]

[When the NV clicks on, it’s angled to show a man’s legs. He appears to be sitting in a familiar dug-out and it’s very dark. Anyone who’s been in Siren’s Port for longer than an hour will know just how bad this situation can be

[Voice and later, action, if that's all right?]

[Sora happens to be on his stand-by shift this night, and when Archy's message comes on over the network, he's already legging it towards the diamond.]

[It's a kid's voice on the line, no older than sixteen.]

Best thing you can do is hole up in that dugout and try to keep em' from getting inside until help comes. It's on the way.

You're a greeter? Do you want a hand?

o/

[lockandkeyblade]

Yeah - Sooner we get rid of those things, sooner we can get that guy out of there. Other greeters might get there first, but better safe than sorry.

[Safe as it is in the dugout, it's no picnic spending the night.]

Name's Sora.

[makes_asteroids]

Sora, Michael Xavier. I'll be there in five minutes.

[lockandkeyblade]

[He gives the other man a nod, briefly switching to video. The light of the NV isn't much in the darkness, but at the very least, this Michael guy will know who to look for on the diamond.]

Got it! You can handle beasts right?

[Could be anything from a battlesoul hound, to a rope-face to a skuller mutt. He just needs to make sure this guy can handle his own.]

video -> action

[makes_asteroids]

I can yes.

[Feed cut, he'll be there soon, landing in black and red armour, a faint blue shield around him.]

[lockandkeyblade]

[[OOC: Archy-mun is having pony rescue first, and we'll get the go when they're ready to have us show up.]]

[video]

[gotanothercall]

[Ponies and children. Shit, he's screwed. Archy looks highly skeptical.]

Are you calling someone?

[[OOC: So I think it might be best if Rainbow shows up first, Sora and Erik show up either during or directly after? Is this cool?]]

[video]

[lockandkeyblade]

[[OOC: Righteo! That sounds just fine to me! But so we don't cross the streams: Depending on what Rainbow wants, I can wait until the rescue completes before they physically meet.]]

Huh? Why would I be calling anybody?

[video]

[gotanothercall]

There has to be some kind of squad for this. Aren't you a bit young to be monster slaying?

[video]

[lockandkeyblade]

There is. And you're looking at one of em'.

And I'm sixteen years old already and pretty strong, just so you know!

[video]

[gotanothercall]

You've got to be kidding me.

[lockandkeyblade]

I'm serious! Didn't anybody ever tell you not to judge a book by its cover?

[gotanothercall]

[He just gives the camera a look. Really, now isn't the time for parables.]

[lockandkeyblade]

[Sora does not relent!] Well you shouldn't. I can dish it out just as good as people twice my size!

And I'll prove it too!

[gotanothercall]

If you get killed, your parents can't sue me.
