slovechnia ♔ hey little sister what have you done

[postergirl]

♬ White Wedding - Billy Idol

WHO || Failboat, Dimitris Sarandis, Amanda Moulet, invited wedding guests, and more [closed]
WHAT || The Knights head to Slovechnia to interrupt Dimitris' wedding to Dumage's sister
WHERE || Flight from London to Slovechnia; Slovechnia
WHEN || Sometime in February
HOW || Actionspam or prose

The morning after, the Knights board a plane at their private airfield, and begin the couple hour flight to the country of Slovechnia.  Wynn has laid out a plan for them as such, leaving Sir Gar in charge of seeing it executed:  they are to send in a few Knights to infiltrate the wedding, while others steal an ambulance from a local hospital.  Using magic to make Sarandis think he's having a heart attack during the ceremony, they will intercept the outgoing call to the paramedics, and pose as them to take him out of there and straight to a private airfield to meet with Wynn.  They're all aware, however, of just how smoothly their plans tend to go where these villains are involved - especially if the Mind Master shows up.  

Either way, it promises to be an interesting day...

[pathology]

[astrid decides that ... it's time for dimitris to go to sleep lmfao. so she grabs an anesthetic injection to inject into his arm and does it like a real medical doctor. (atk nat 20, 26 total)] Good night!

[bigbad]

I'm putting you down. [Cause between the sirens and Gar yelling about how they have to go, seems like a good time to not have a person in his arms.] Sounds like it's time for back-up.

[And he'll start moving towards the front of the church.]

[shadowhater]

[ ♬ hit and run - lolo

every single bullet tears into him, ripping holes in his suit, blood blossoming across the wide expanse of his chest. he lets out a pained noise, his body slumping back against the door for a moment, but as buffy moves forward to try to grab his gun, he lifts his head, a baleful look in his eyes as he fires it at her (atk 22), but she manages to avoid the shot and goes to grab the gun. she gets a successful grip on it, ripping the gun out of his hand (with her atk 47) ]

[slay]

[ Buffy ducks the bullet with the bend of a knee, anticipating the startled response, then wrenches the gun from his hands while she twists, using the momentum to carry her up into the nearest guard (purple) with a kick in the gut (heroic surge 1/5, atk 45 dmg 15). She keeps a hold on the gun with her off-hand, fingers clenched around the barrel to keep her ready to swing it as a bludgeoning weapon if need be. ]

[usurping]

[ welp. dimitris was not expecting that shit, and while his eyes get wide when the needle jabs into his skin, he quickly goes cross-eyed, and then his body slumps before he can even protest.

a bunch of officers get out of their cars, their doors opening one after another as they move to take cover behind their vehicles, and then there's the sound of a ton of guns being aimed over the hoods. officer G begins yelling something vehemently... in Slovechnian.

kitty is left gawking outside the ambulance for the moment, her eyes moving between the closed doors and the suddenly TONS OF POLICE POINTING GUNS THIS WAY ]

[slay]

You don't have to leave anything to Fate for it to catch you. Sometimes, it looks like spiraling your decisions into something bigger than you ever expected. It's not all oracles with tarot cards telling you your fortune.

[opportune]

[ amanda looks over her shoulder at the sound of the sirens, bunching up the fabric of her wedding dress in one hand ] We're leaving.

[princesmarming]

[ valentin is still looking at des like >:| but he acquiesces to amanda's reminder. ] Yes... I suggest you get inside with the guests.

[allmydreams]

[Shiiiiiiiiiiit cops. Felicity lets her eyes scan the area in front of them, using her sweep talent to try and suss out a way out of this that doesn't involve mowing down innocent policemen who are just trying to do their job (spot 26).]

Do you think if we back towards the parking lot and book it the ambulance will be able to handle going briefly off road?

[Mostly talking to Gar because they need to drive and they need to drive now, and the cops have conveniently blocked themselves in that way.]

[shootfirst]

[ kat hits the ground, and then pushes off, zooming past spike towards the front of the building ] He is not fucking getting away now.

[behindcloseddoors]

[ rose would be able to hear valentin and amanda talking to myri and des at the west entrance, and hear spike and kat booking it from the east doors towards the front of the building. she would hear the distant sirens, the yelling from out front in a foreign language, and look inside, where she can see that dumage is engaged in an argument with her mother near the altar. most of the other civilians are still involved in frantic hubbub about what just happened, looking confused about where to go and what to do, and reacting to the sound of sirens. a curious few seem to be heading towards the front doors. ]

[rationalizes]

[ the bad news is that to the east beyond the parking lot are more buildings, meaning that the best they can hope for is a tight squeeze behind K's police car, and there are definitely lots of cars parked in that lot as well that they would have to squeeze through to do so. they could off road to the west and do the same behind A's car, instead.

but for all that, it's... probably their best bet to do one or the other, yes. gar glances backwards long enough to see dimitris pass out, and then back out the window to survey the officers, looking like this is the worst day ever. over the comm, she says: ] We need back-up, out front! [ she grips the wheel with both hands, and then ... slams it into reverse. this is unfortunate for kitty, who was... right behind the ambulance, and failed her reflex save. guess this explains her crit fail. gar was not expecting that sudden BUMP and slams on the brakes, eyes widening in concern as she looks in the mirror to her left. ] Oh goodness! Who was that?

[littledhampir]

[And it's the people starting towards the front of the building that sees Rose spring into action, her stake being slipped away for now as she opens the chapel doors. Diplomacy may not be one of her strong suits but the last thing they all need is a bunch of Civilians getting caught in the crossfire if there are cops involved (Wis 19. I am just. So proud right now.)]

Ladies and Gentlemen if I can have your attention... [Shooting Dumage a discreet glance like. IDK what you want from me here I'm the muscle. With a Diplomacy of about 10... even Rose realizes that's not going to help any so... she tries a different approach.]

Hey! Listen up! [Intimidate 39... I guess that's one way to control a crowd. (Heroic Surge 1/5)] I need everyone to move away from the front of the chapel and sit their asses down.

[shadowhater]

[ the guard takes the foot in his gut with an oof, and then swings back at buffy with his bare knuckles (atk 15/23), fists whiffing over her head both times. green does the same, flanking her with decker (atk 18/annnd a crit), managing to land one blow on the back of her head (16 lethal dmg). yellow and red stay back, drawing out their guns and leveling them at elena.

decker, in the meantime, gives buffy a grim, disturbing smile when she takes his gun away, straightening up despite his multiple bullet wounds, and swings at her as well, but as she ducks out of the way of purple, decker slugs them instead (dmg 11). enraged, he comes a lot closer with his second swing (atk 26) and then manages to punch green too over buffy's shoulder with a second crit fail (dmg 18). it's clear that he packs one helluva wallop at least... ]

[isisagent]

It's been a pleasure serving with you, Sloan. We'll always have that night at the beach house is Malibu.

[And then he'll spend the next 4 rounds dramatically charging the police line as a human fireball]

[graveflowers]

[ i just felt like running. they'll get there one day. ]

[recruited]

[ Steve's closest to the door and it only takes him a moment to lean over to peer out the small backdoor windows. He winces and turns to face the front. ] You hit that scary intense lady. We should go. She might be mad.

[postergirl]

[ i am not kidding here... the crowd rolled a nat 20. they are not impressed, rose. probably because they are too busy being like panicked/curious at this point to be deterred. ]

[doubletake]

[Well, if Decker is going to ignore her and go for Buffy, Elena is just going to unload into him again (atk 30/33/27/30/30/32, dmg 8/4/7/22/7/14, heroic surge 2/5).

Guards, she's coming for you later. She does not seem at all disturbed by the fact that they're...pointing guns at her.]

[pathology]

[astrid grabs a bonesaw out of the equipment in case ... dimitris wakes up or kitty lunges for the doors or something??? she just wants to be prepared, okay.] I think everybody's already pretty mad at us. [the police???]

[littledhampir]

[Rose is just. Fucking seriously?! What is it with rich people!! With Gar's voice requesting back up coming through the comms, she's not about to dick around for very long so she moves straight over to Dumage, all srs face and completely ignores ma and pa.]

This whole place is swarming with people who have guns. I suggest if you don't want your family and friends to get caught in the crossfire, you find a way to control them. [(Bluff 27 for any eavesdroppers to buy that Rose is barking orders and not... talking to a teammate.)]

[bigbad]

Bloody right he isn't.

[Spike's hot on her heels, running as far as he can (140 feet) towards Kitty.]

[slay]

[ That's fine, because Buffy will handle those who have guns trained on her. She turns her attention away from Decker, full on ignoring this asshole who keeps crit failing and missing her in the ultimate insult as she turns to decimate his guards. In fact … ]

Hey, big guy. Not that I don't appreciate you doing my job for me here, but think you could leave some of your lackeys for the rest of us?

[ Banter earns her a +3 def vs melee, bringing her melee AC to 31. Purple and Green block her way to where Yellow and Red stand with guns raised at Elena, so she starts with Purple, cracking her fists against him (atk 38 dmg 16; atk 40 dmg 13; atk 43 which is in her crit range so dmg 36; atk 26 dmg 18). As he falls, she rounds to take her last attack at green by driving her elbow up into their chin (atk 31 dmg 19). ]

[shootfirst]

[ kat rounds the corner and jerks to a stop in the driveway, surveying the situation like ??? ???? how did this happen to meeeeeee ] Oh, for fuck's sake.

[ but quickly decides to do something about this... cops situation to distract them from the ambulance, bless her heart. she raises her hand and shouts out some latin... and then giant hailstones start raining down on police officers E, F, and G, bouncing off their cars and dealing 11 bludgeoning dmg and 7 cold dmg to them and their vehicles. ]

[bonquas]

[ the police are not happy about this and E backs away out of the hailstorm, as F and G throw their doors open and get back in their vehicles to get out of the way of the giant chunks of ice raining down on them. H and I start firing on Kat with a -8 penalty for the distance (atks 7/16/6/18) - the last shot actually hitting kat, but bouncing off the invisible shield of her mage armor which shimmers around her. A and B take aim at the ambulance tires (atk 16/19/17/17), popping both of them on the driver's side. the ambulance lurches a bit. C backs up the car and starts driving it across the lawn to avoid the hailstorm. J moves up beside H and I, talking into his walkie-talkie.

kitty groans and gets to her feet, backing away from the ambulance towards the steps. ]
