GROUP 3 - Gilbert tidesnpc February 4 2009, 04:51:58 UTC

The grand entry hall is a magnificent sight, even in the dark. The huge bay windows let in an uncanny amount of moonlight, which in turn reflects nicely off the polished floors and dignified weapons hanging from the wall. There are a few large doorways leading off to various rooms on either side, and a smaller door far in the back that is presumably of lesser importance.

A few more steps inward reveals a guest lounge to one side (with some rather odd looking devices) and a pristine library to the other.

Well, this was certainly a classy establishment! Of course, from previous experiences in Kropmork, Gilbert had learned that the Kropmorkian elite tended to either be really classy or tacky beyond all belief. And ah... those weapons looked magnificent! He really wouldn't mind getting a closer look at those,

Of course, as he walked further in, he noted that the guest lounge seemed to have some intriguing trinkets in it, as well... but the library was probably their best bet. After all, anyone who knew anything about rich bastards knew that they always had some sort of secret passageway in the libraries!

"Alright, gentlemen!" he said in his quietest voice, which was still a few decibels over the noise level of the average conversation. "First, we'll be investigating that library!"

The last time Asch worked in a group, it was on the Silvana mission to the Montague. And even then, it was just him and Isshin. This was the first time Asch would actually be working in a group. Item retrieval didn't sound too terribly exciting, but compared to the licker dogs from last time, this didn't seem bad at all.

"...I suppose it's possible they've got it on display there," Asch said.

Although he didn't sound very convinced.

Hatsuharu didn't care for weapons, he didn't care for trinkets, and in all honesty he really didn't care a whole lot about the outcome of this mission. The boy came simply because he felt the need to be some kind of helpful in the eyes of the captain so that he could stay on the ship, and well, he had nothing better to do.

So far it was great fun. Born a rich boy in a strictly tight knit family, he'd never before had the chance to experience an adventure of this variety. He truly wondered how well he would do.

Shoving one hand into his pocket with a slightly slouchy posture, and just looking oh so stylish, Hatsuharu raised a fist into the air at Gilbert's amusingly loud words. "Go team." He added calmly.

It probably didn't help that at this point he had absolutely no clue what they were looking for. He would have asked Asch when he mentioned 'it', but that would have ruined the mystery.

GROUP 4 - Erza tidesnpc February 4 2009, 04:52:19 UTC

The door at the back seems as good a place as any to start, seeing as how the other group has the front rooms covered. It is a long walk across the hall, but the small door comes into reach eventually. There are no sounds from behind it, but the residual smell of pies and meat wafts gently through. The door, presumably leads towards the kitchens.

Erza was ready and eager to get this over with. This didn't seem likely to be a mission with much use for her personal talents; search and retrieve was not her forte. But it was still work, and she would perform her task to the best of her abilities.

She paused with her hand on the door knob, and then turned back to her teammates.

"Remember, we're going to do this as quickly and quietly as possible. Find the crystal, but put everything back exactly where it was afterwards. I'm sure I don't need to tell you what will happen if I catch any of you stealing."

Re: GROUP 4 - Erza daddys_working February 5 2009, 05:46:16 UTC

"As opposed to whatever it is we're doing with this crystal?" Tycho observed in a low voice cocking an eyebrow.

Re: GROUP 4 - Erza punching_devils February 5 2009, 05:57:21 UTC

"I'm gonna go out on a limb and assume this is a punch-light job?" Gabe whispered as he cracked his knuckles as quietly as possible.
