    Wyvis lights up at the name. "Ah, I see! I am honoured to meet you, miss Sombra. Of course we will aid you." Wyvis unlocks the prisons with the guard key-cards, and then hands Sombra and Symmetra a flask of water with a smile. "It is important to stay hydrated, especially when making an escape out of a dangerous place such as this!" Disturbing the flow of time...? That sounds quite the danger. It is true, we must not allow such dangerous devices in these people's hands. Wyvis brings up the radio and addresses Team Roof, hoping they had finished the fight with the upper guards by now. "Team Roof, we have successfully rescued Mrs Symmetra and Ms Sombra on the 12th floor. We have also been informed that there is a chronal accelerator within this building, and it is of high importance that we take it off Vishkar's hands. Shall we rendezvous at the 12th floor before moving on? These labs sound like they are quite dangerous."

    Visrii said nothing against the driver's snarky response. After all, the driver unfucked the operation, and pissing the guy off will only mean bad luck. But he gathered stray embers and burned the paper bag he was given. Considering that he had ridden a dragon before, the van ride was nothing out of the ordinary. Though he did have to admit inside, his guts felt like it had its own Masquerade and half his organs got slaughtered. Visrii climbed out of the van and stayed outside the cottage whilst 'angel' got to work with the weapons. He didn't need the weapons, his Climax was good enough. However, he did keep a close eye on Lexiel and Halley, as well as the new recruit.

    "Sure thing, madam!" Wyvis says cheerfully as he approaches the cell. "That is, after all, why we are here." He takes off the guard and is about to try it on the electronic lock, but stops short. He imagines Visrii's voice pointing out something he never thought of before. Hey. Isn't it weird that Command never told you about this? If this girl is one of the team, then wouldn't they have you to rescue her too? ...though Wyvis didn't like to leave someone in possible peril hanging, this was a valid point. It was always safe to check, anyhow. "Uhh, sorry, madam. We were never informed of you in such a condition. Excuse me for this, but we will need to quickly check with Command. Can you please tell me your name?"

    Wyvis tries to take shelter from the wind as it pierces through even Wyvis' padded armour. "Careful, friends! Here," Wyvis brings out a torch, and after a couple tries, lights it with a flint and steel, and hands it to Isobel, who seems to be suffering the most. "Be careful not to burn yourself, however." Wyvis arrives at the wall on the 12th floor, and shakes his head at Sachi's question. "Hmm...no, I don't have the means to break through solid walls, unfortunately. It seems that there must be some sort of hidden mechanism to unlock a chamber." Wyvis then scouts the room for anything that might look like it would open a door or hint a mechanism of some kind.

    Visrii smiled faintly as he silently heard the conversation between the team members. Electricity shocked his arm as he took off the Vow of Silence, and Visrii resisted the temptation to reactively clutch it. Mana deprivation. Seems like he strained himself yet again with the Vow. But as far as he could see, it was worth it. The team was coming back together, even if a little by little. Good. We'll need this for the mission. Can't have half the team ripping each other's throats in the middle of an infiltration...wait. Edmond. Fuck. Visrii knew it was too late to retrieve a man left behind. They were in the middle of some sort of carriage that was speeding off at a speed matching dragons. They couldn't just jump off. Visrii banged on the van wall to get the driver's attention over the sound of the carriage. "We've left a member behind! With a Knight Errant! Name's Edmond with brown hair and green eyes, and has a 'shotgun'! You mind picking him up after?"

    Visrii nodded in understanding. In a way, his own relentless pursuit of his duty resonated with her. "We are what we fight for, Halley. Though you may have gone about your philosophy in the wrong way, that is not to say you need to put aside your ideals for the mission. Again, this is a team, and a team doesn't work when some of us throw away ideals just to make way for others. A team only works when everyone's ideals are one. Rest easy, we'll have to get Lexiel to talk with us as well." It was quite a long time since he had to emphasise the ideals of a team, and for some reason, he briefly sounded like Wyvis. All this talk about teamwork. Though, Wyvis' leadership was certainly commendable, and what was a virtue is to be respected, not rejected.

    Visrii calmly head up a finger to his lips, silencing the driver with an arcane spell. A black glowing ribbon, phantom to touch, appeared and closed around the vicinity of the driver's mouth, slowly decreasing the driver's volume until it was mute. Vow of Silence was one of the most powerful spells that the Crownbreakers utilised, allowing the user to silence up to an entire room full of people at once. They often used this to silence victims as they got down to their dirty work. But now, it seemed, Visrii had to use the very same spell to give someone a chance to speak loud and clear. If Solomon also opened his fat mouth, then he'd have to silence him too. But so many arcane spells at once tired him, so he wouldn't be able to keep it up for long. Visrii gave Halley a reassuring look and a nod to let her know that her time to speak was secured.

    Visrii looked silently at Halley, then Izumi, then 'Lexiel', then back at Halley. So she's the one who fucked up the whole operation. Visrii started to feel extremely tired. In Stravaga, this whole mess wouldn't have happened at all. He only chose people who would NOT turn on each other, and even then, he sifted out the best of the best. This team seemed to be full of incompetent surprises, and Visrii wasn't even in charge of the team. If he was the organiser, then he'd kick out the angel and Halley in a heartbeat, and blamed himself for mistaking them for being effective fighters. But the inconvenient truth was that he was neither in control or in Stravaga, and Visrii knew that more or less, he'd have to pull the load alone. But it was neither beneficial or safe to leave loose knots untied. He wasn't the type to forgive a mistake. The stakes were too high. However, the situation forced him to do so. "Halley, explain yourself." Visrii said in a calm, neutral tone. "We're a team, and we'll have to pull through this together. This is no way to tie up loose ends." He retracted back to his seat, looking slowly around each and every member of the team, as if daring them to start an argument again.

    Visrii watched as the van pulled up in front of the inn. Then he looked up at Solomon on the book-throne. Well. At least Crazy has a plan in mind. Visrii transformed his armour again into the standard Watcher set, took off his mask and took out two crystals. Chances were, if the van was Solomon's doing, that was the fastest way to the objective. He climbed down the building and swiftly entered the van, but not before chucking two smoke crystals down to at least disorientate the shooters. He refrained from throwing a snarky comment - such was a time where everyone was in danger of failing the mission. Once, everyone's inside the van, he asked the driver, "Driver - how far's to Aztech?"

    Visrii reflexively kicked off as soon as the throne started to descend and unleashed all 4 of his float strings at once, slowing his descent into a comfortable touchdown. It was almost as if Visrii was expecting the drop the entire time. He didn't even grace Solomon with a look when he dropped down and hid down low. He looked over to the Psychedelic Pirate's, which was getting scattered and ransacked with explosions and screaming. Visrii sighed, annoyed at how far things went wrong the few hours he had not been with the team. Back in Stravaga, he would have had to pull acrobatic amounts of cover-ups to silence this whole affair. He balanced the option of ducking down and trying to help and staying up top and corresponding, then decided for the latter. One warlock was not enough to stop 5 murderous lunatics, and he was better off not getting seen with his infiltration gear on. He'd wait until they scattered yet again, or someone somehow unfucked this whole mess.

    Updated Visrii, to become a fast and hard hitting character who relies on INIT to do the talking. Now that I actually have an idea of the combat system, he has a lot more synergy than a simple frail generalist.

    Visrii simply ignored Solomon. If he dealt with that shit every time he met Solomon, he was simply wasting his breath. "As long as the team is assembled... stay safe." Visrii looked down at his clothes. The infiltration was dawning - he better get ready. The enemy had Eyes everywhere, and they knew that he was coming. They had already failed to kill the bear of a man before in the battle, and chances were, he had already informed his superiors. Before the infiltration, he would have to change his clothing. He ducked into an alley, and when he found a place where he is satisfied that there is no-one watching, he started to channel magic into his armour, changing and moulding it into a different set. Instead of a fearsome, unstoppable Watcher armour he was known and infamous for, his clothes now looked like a proper infiltrator. The robes had been burned away, giving into a dark hard leather armour. The intricate enchantments on the armour sapped the light off of its surroundings, dimming the vicinity into a permanent night. Perfect for executing and wiping guards. Visrii turned off the enchantment for the moment. The effect would only attract attention in the broad daylight. He summoned a porcelain mask and put upon his face. The mask was pure white except for two lines that drew vertically down through one eye hole, covering his recognisable features. He returned to Solomon and nodded, sitting on the strange throne of books. He would have commented that this reminded him of the old times, but he was to weirded out by the floating book structure.

    She seems to be brooding over something...I want to ask her what's wrong, but I don't want to push her too much. Kalva looks concerned at Meggie. What was possibly bothering her? Hmm... perhaps the Nexus Girl knew, for she had raised Meggie? It also occurs to Kalva that the Girl was also concerned about Meggie, and they forgot to tell her of their success. He took out his a-comm and wrote to Kai; "hey kai, we re coming back please tell the miss we ve rescued meggie and she is safe : ) but she seems to be sad about somethin"

    "42." Visrii said as we walked past the man-eater plant. The hell was the warden was thinking when they put me in there? Is this some sort of joke? Visrii shook off the feelings of confusion and creeping irritance. There were much more important things to do. He walked down and out of the building, and immediately contacted Halley. "Halley, are you there?" He couldn't feel the presence of the AMF so he assumed that he had reestablished contact. "I was taken into some sort of prison room that had a disruption field, but Edmond broke me out. I will be rendevous to the Pirates." After a little moment, he added, "What's your status?"

    Kalva couldn't help but smile at Gina's response. She really was like a mother figure in Aether, always looking out for Kalva whenever she could. "okay gina we dont know much about the nexus trainer. emmanuel, sena and i had to split from the group. you can ask the other members though, they went to the trainers house" Kalva then walked around and picked up various objects in the environment, so that when they come back they may analyse the nexus in detail. Quina would have also liked to see it, too. [Rocks, Leaves, Soil. Later, pick up glowing branch, and glowing soil] He runs up and strides next to Meggie, smiling at her warmly.

    Wyvis winces slightly as he hears a loud crackling noise over the radio. "Acknowledged, Team Loud. Will be proceeding as planned." He radios back and turns down the volume dial a tad. Wyvis turns back to his team members. "Team Loud is getting busy with some security, we will need to keep moving." Wyvis moves out of the barracks and into the next area, again carefully checking for any traps.

    When the Fire fades... its old guards awaken... Visrii... are you ready? Visrii... Visri... Vis... And there he saw it. The Fire, its light, its life giving light, burning itself, consuming itself, ripping itself apart from the darkness that had sprung within. The air was filled with rotten ash, poisonous clouds wafting through, corroding what was left of the holy grounds. Suddenly, there was a crack, the impossibly high, impossibly large shadow, collapsing on top of Visrii, swallowing him in its infinite midnight... Then Visrii opened his eyes, breathing in air so rapidly that his chest hurt from the strain. His whole body was covered with sweat, the sheets twisted with what was apparently his struggle against his nightmare. As he usually did, he pieced together his mind and got back his strength - until he felt a piercing shock on his shoulder. The flame. It's dying. This fact burned into Visrii's mind as he crawled out of bed and looked about. ...what is this? He remembered having the conversation with Lukas before he apparently was transported here. There was no memory in between. He immediately charged up the comms crystals and contacted Halley. "Halley! Give me sit-rep!" When he got no response, he tried again. "Halley, this is Visrii. Respond!" Was she in danger? Was he in danger? Was anyone else in danger? He realised quickly what had happened. An AMF. Something arcane was stopping him from contacting Halley. He felt a tinge of nervousness when he realised that he couldn't contact his fr-no, his team members. He couldn't afford to have his own preferences in the way of his operation. That too, included Wolfe, Wyvis and Lukas. They were better acquaintances. None more. He slowed his pace of thinking and examined the room. There seemed to be no hostility in here. But being in an AMF didn't explain this either... what was going on? He cautiously retrieved his weapon from what appeared to be an umbrella stand, and burning it, stored it as ash. Then with equal slowness, tried to open the door to his room.

    "Acknowledged, noble guardsmen. I will make sure to punish only the wrongdoers." Wyvis nods and gently cuffs the guards, so as to make them look like they were subdued by the group instead of cooperating. However, Wyvis also makes sure to show the leader where he hid the key to the cuffs, underneath one of the beds. Wyvis turns to his team members. "Alright, let's move out." He takes out his radio and updates the other team of the situation. "Team Roof, we've passed through the barracks. These men are cooperative and innocent, do NOT fire upon the barracks. We're moving through to the upper floors now. Can you give me a sit-rep up top?"
  20. LucidRain
    A Revive? Out here? Well, I guess I shouldn't complain... Kalva nods, pockets the Revive and skips back out towards Emmanuel. Kalva types in the a-comm to update the home base of the situation. "i rescued gabite and now heading back to her trainer. we are all safe :)"

    "You've never been on the run, have you?" Visrii retorted. "Anyway," he waved the bouncer off, "I've things to organise. If you will excuse me, I've got things to do better than stand around and throw snarky comments around." 4 hours. Adequate. Visrii spends the rest of his time preparing for the infiltration and partially on a conversation. (Conversation between Visrii's group.)
  22. LucidRain
    Visrii looped back and returned to the bouncer. "Right. That was a shitty joke." Visrii said flatly and sighed, going into the bar. "It's still gonna be a long night..."
  23. LucidRain
    Visrii smiled sourly. "Tough customer, huh?" With a swift movement, he threw the crystal down, shattering them on the pavement. The milky-coloured crystal exploded into a thick mist and quickly permeated throughout the street, covering Visrii as he swiftly moved through the maze-like alleyways. He looked for a way up unto the rooftops, and if he did find one, he would climb to the top and try to take the height advantage. On the run again, it seemed. He wasn't too phased at the circumstances he was given. Felt at home, even - except for the ever-present stench of the streets. After running from the entire world's enterprises for 4 years, he didn't mind a couple of bounty hunters. Though things were a little different, it seemed. Back in Stravaga, he knew where to go and who to contact. He could outsmart the guards bastards any bloody day of the week. This place...a foreign realm with foreign hunters. It would a long night, he was sure.

    Wyvis notices Isobel looking for cuffs. Ah, she is looking for a way to tie them down without actually killing them. Wyvis privately was relieved. Though killing was ultimately a necessary part of a Sunshine Guard's job, he understood that most of the people he killed were, inside, good men. Especially these people, they didn't really commit any wrongs. Perhaps they were lost, or simply followed the wrong people. Unless they were actively attacking him, Wyvis preferred to avoid killing whenever possible. Wyvis put a reassuring hand on Isobel's shoulder. "We'll find a way, Isobel, don't worry. There is no need for unnecessary killing." This is where Visrii would have pulled out some kind of gadget he seemed to store in his bottomless coat pockets. Wyvis helps Isobel look for cuffs, and if it is not available, looks for any other way to incapacitate the guards.

    Visrii raised his eyebrow. "That's 3 more to a list of a thousand." he commented. "They're out for the SIN, Halley. I've the key and they know what the lock holds." "Alright. How much is the warrant? 10,000? 20,000? Give me a price." Underhand, Visrii prepared to leave the scene. He had quite the habit of drawing attention to himself, back in Stravaga. And so he had to develop a habit of disappearing whenever needed.
