[Le-Koro, Markets]
Ranok had lost Kunitu again in the hussle and bussle of the square. He was just about to go back to the guard HQ to inquire as to her whereabouts when a toa came flying out of one the windows of a nearby bar and streaked of to who knows where.
Well.
Ranok crept up to the bar door and stuck his head. By the faces of the patrons he guessed they were well aware of what just happened.
“Excuse me, can I be of any assistance?”
IC:Darxis
Darxis glanced at Ranok, before the trail where the nutjob had gone, before returning her gaze to Ranok.
"Well, that guy who just sprang through the window was a murderous psychopath, if that means anything."
IC Thak:
"Round 'o drinks on me, since that ordeal's over!"
He tossed a bag of widgets the barman's way.
Cheers let out from a few of the more drink savvy patrons.
[Le-Koro, Markets]
Here’s what Ranok was thinking of saying:
“Ah yes, there was just one of those earlier--a fellow who tried to burn up the market for not believing in his religion. We seem to get those an ever-lot here.”
Here’s what he actually said:
“Who you like me to go to guard HQ to inform them of that individual? I was just going there myself anyway--so I can save you the trouble.”
IC:Darxis
She shrugged. "Sure, if you like. Just be aware he has a Huna. Guy almost died in here and I almost got decapitated."
OOC: Waiting on Chirox.
IC (As Adamas): "What do you think we will find, Lerada?"
IC: Kuraka
Location: Bar, Le-Koro
"How generous of you." Kuraka laid back in her seat next to Thak, a smile of satisfaction on her face, her hands behind her head, and her legs crossed.
IC: Rakau
Rakau's eyes opened a smidge. He was in the bar. On the ground. Disarmed. .
He began to pull himself up, still quite drunk.
OOC: Sorry, waiting for Lerada
IC: Luta - Le-Koro
"Alright through those tree over there"
He said pointing straight ahead
IC: Maxxta:
" He may be close to insane, but he's not stupid iron-butt. We've been in the wahi for years, and he knows that rahi love blood. You're not gonna track 'im that easy. He'll bind that arm up, and a single bullet ain't gonna kill 'im sniper. Glaive lady, you can tell the guards to find 'im, but if they do, tell me. don't try to handle 'im on your own.
IC: Kuraka
Location: Bar, Le-Koro
"Ohoho. You sure seem to have a high opinion of that racist piece of filth that dares call himself a toa." Kuraka said pointedly to Maxxta.
IC: Maxxta:
"YOU IGNORANT IDIOT! He made some... personal losses, and, unfortunately for iron-butt, they were to a skadki. I just don't want him going on a rampage across the island. After nearly losing sanity, whenever he sees a skadki, something in him snaps and he goes for the kill. "
IC Thak:
....
"Maybe you should take care 'o that, seein' that you know so much about the nutter."
IC Jaco
"So, not even a thank you?" He intoned to the skakdi and bo-toa he'd just saved.
IC Thak:
"Eh? What'd you do?"
[Le-Koro, Markets]
Ranok’s eyebrows shot up as the conversation took an interesting turn.
“Well, then I’ll just pop down to the headquarters. I assure you--” he nodded at the Le-Matoran “--there are plenty of well-capable toa in the force. Your uh, ‘friend’ will be in good hands.”
IC Jaco
He wore a look of absolute incredulity.
"Well, besides subduing that punk over there, driving off the crazy that stabbed you and looking good doing it out of the kindness of my heart, not much."
IC Thak:
"Well, the punk in question just looks like your average joe, if ya ask me," he said nudging said punk with his foot slightly.
"As for the crazy, well, all ya really did was kick I'm while he was down."
With an eyebrow raised and a grin, he looked at the other being, "So, what am I thank in' ya for, again?"
IC Jaco
"Are you and chubbster deaf or something? I just gave you a list a reasons."
IC Thak:
"An I just refuted 'em."
He frowned.
"That ain't no way to treat a beautiful stranger. Apologize."
IC Jaco
"Nah."
IC Thak:
Had he not just nearly died, Thak might have been more likely to start a brawl with the uncouth.
As it was, he simply waved him off, and turned for the door, "Not worth my time. Gentlemen."
He flashed a winning smile at his savior.
"Lady. I bid you all farewell."
IC: Maxxta:
" I just wanted to make sure that none o' you paranoids killed 'im. and as fer dem toa, they report to me if they find 'em."
IC: Kamkika:
Hidden in his small hollow in a tree not two hundred yards from the bar, Kamkika stewed over the recent events. "I'm gonna get that stinking vortixx that shot me. and that toa that threw the glaive. I'm gonna make her suffer." rattling around his little hide-away silently raging, planning horrific deaths for his attackers.
IC: Rakau
Rakau pulled himself up, his head bleeding from the back.
IC:Darxis
Another one was bleeding. Mata Nui these people are fragile.
"Hey, woah, careful there." she gestured to Rakau. "You've injured your head."
IC: Rakau
"I-I'm fine." Rakau said, still swaying a little from the alchohol.
OOC: Sorry, waiting for Lerada
IC: Luta - Le-Koro
"Alright through those tree over there"
He said pointing straight ahead
OOC: I'll just go next while we wait.
IC (As Adamas): "Let's hope there aren't any dangerous pets on the loose." Adamas said as a joke and reference to Scorpio. "I really don't want to break my ankle again and get trapped with a Nui-Jaga on the rampage.
[Le-Koro, Markets]
Ranok simply nodded in response to the Le-matoran and exited the bar. He obviously hadn't been in Le-koro for long if he was questioning the jurisdiction of the Gukko Force over someone who constituted a public menace.
He kept his ears perked as returned to the main streets, and caught an odd chattering under the normal murmur of conversation. Filing it away for later, he started towards the force headquarters at a brisk walk.
IC: Kuraka
Location: Bar, Le-Koro
"Aww, well, you take care of yourself, handsome." Kuraka smiled and winked at Thak. Her gaze then moved on to the gentleman with the scoped Huna. His head had apparently been injured in the back, and was now bleeding. "Let me take a look at that." She said as she jumped over the table in a graceful way, and walked up to the toa. "Looks like you hit your head, mind if I see?"
IC: Rakau
Rakau nodded, removing his hand, which was now covered in crimson blood.
IC: Kuraka
Location: Bar, Le-Koro
"Hmmm, yep, that's blunt trauma alright. This will only take a moment." Kuraka focused her mind on the wound, imagining it, studying it, and extending her consciousness into it through the power of the mask.
The soft tissue was traumatized, and blood vessels had been smashed open. The outer layer was badly bent, but there wasn't much she could do about it other than force it back by healing the soft tissue underneath. It took some concentration, but finally, she managed to heal the trauma, closing the veins and bending the outer layer back into shape.
"All done. Say, what's your name, sweetie?"
IC: Rakau
"Rakau." The Fa-Toa said, his cold eyes on Jaco.
IC: Eztanda - Inn, Le-Koro
I nod in reply to the former warlord, making my way over to the rest of the group. I shoot the oblivious Jaco a brief scowl of disapproval. Then I look over each of the bar's occupants. An interesting lot. I exchange a glance with the injured skakdi. An eyebrow is raised.
IC: Isaer
Last Isaer had heard of Rakau, he was headed to Le-Wahi. So, Isaer had followed, in search of his former hired hitman. He needed to dispose of this toa, before he is exposed for what he did to him. He decided to go for a drink first, and headed for the nearest inn in Le-Wahi.
OOC: Open for interaction
OOC: I'll just go next while we wait.
IC (As Adamas): "Let's hope there aren't any dangerous pets on the loose." Adamas said as a joke and reference to Scorpio. "I really don't want to break my ankle again and get trapped with a Nui-Jaga on the rampage.
IC: Luta - Le-Koro
"Well you guys would protect right....?"
He shook his head
"Anyway we should be entering the jungle now"
IC: Maxxta
"Weeeell better go see if I can find 'im. Keep anyone who finds 'im from gettn' hurt.
IC Jaco
He sat down at one of the still extant tables.
"So..."
IC: Eztanda - Le-Koro
I take a seat next to Jaco. My arms rest lightly on the table. Though I didn't participate in it all that much, I can still feel the adrenaline from the fight. I idly wonder where the barman is. A few seconds pass. I exchange a glance with Exc. I exchange a cursory glance with the Fe-Skakdi and then the healer. Eventually I gesture to the drunkard I took down earlier. "What'll we do with him?" I ask my bro in an offhand way.
IC: Gatanka
IC:
Sweet Irnakk in a beefcake calendar--
"Okay," Colx said, grinding the heel of his palm up along his forehead. "We're just goin' in circles, here. Let's us start over, 'right?"
-Void
IC: Maxxta:
"Aha! found you Kam!" crawling into the hollow in the tree Maxxta put his hands on Kamkika's head and poured in sane and calm thoughts. "Hah! stupid vortixx. Being injured only riles him up more."
