black rock ♔ with my sad bones and my soiled throne



WHO || Erky, Maxwell, Liam, Thoster
WHAT || The Knights track down a message from a mysterious woman in trouble
WHERE || Black Rock, Utah
WHEN || April 22nd, 2015
HOW || Actionspam


It's after noon when they arrive, a bleak, dreary day, and an ominous blanket of low, gray clouds hangs over the landscape.  A recent rain has left everything damp, giving the scenery an air of decay.  It seems there is no end to the parade of empty fields and derelict farmhouses flanking this stretch of road.   As they drive towards the coordinates of Black Rock, Thoster's phone abruptly rings.

Sounds to me like they're married- not vee aypee, whatever that is.

[pirate probs. but then to erky:]

No, she didn't say anything about a husband. Seemed very panicked, though.

[Max doesn't even bother to glance at Thoster for that remark. Just regular old world pirate who still needs to synchronize with this world. Something you see daily. He just sighs before he starts explaining.]

VIP. Very Important Person. Meaning people in high place like celebrity, leader, and royalty. Famous people for short.[He explains to Thoster and also to Erky who probably didn't know its meaning either.]

Look, I found a photo of them. [He shows the photo to the team.] Married as expected and they have a two years old daughter named Elinor.

All the more reason to find them as quickly as possible, if you ask me.

Hmmm... I heard there's a spell to find someone using their belongings. Any one of you can cast it? [He isn't a arcane expert or something, but luckily, Allain told him about it not long ago.]

[Liam, who had been watching the adults talk like he was watching an episode of CSI or something, just lifts his eyebrows in response to Max's question like, wait you guys know magic? Because he sure doesn't. But he looks kind of hopeful that they might because he suddenly wants to see it go down.]

Just that it was small and dark- only about 5 feet long. Oh, and she said the ceiling sloped. Might be able to find something that looks like that if we do a sweep of the land.

Maybe it's a small attic or cellar. Let's split up into two groups and sweep the place house by house. Me with Liam and Thoster with Erky.

[The kid looks smart so he might be useful if something happens and Thoster seems experienced to lead the second group.]

We will start with that place and you two start with the house next to it. [He points to the nearest house.]

Try to stay close with the other group and keep each others updated. Proceeds with caution. Any question?

I'm thinking no stone unturned. They could be anywhere, honestly. No telling just what might be built into these places.

[He looks to Max for confirmation]

[Max nods, signing confirmation.] There's no proof they aren't inside one of the shops. We'd better checked 'em all.

[Wee! Thoster takes off with Erky as instructed by Max and heads into a nearby building, having a look around (spot 26).]
beatemup: (what?)

[personal profile] beatemup 2015-04-23 04:05 pm (UTC)(link)
[Max soon follows and leaves with Liam. He goes into the other building and looks around for clues (spot 16) ]
