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...

[The ambulance lurches to one side and Felicity groans. They're not going to get far with half their tires gone, but they still gotta get moving somehow. Felicity reaches forward into the glove compartment to grab where she stashed her Excalibur.

She doesn't want to shoot anybody, but she will if she has to. She's also careful to keep the gun out of sight so she doesn't give cops a reason to shoot out the windshield.]

We should still try and get as far as we can, but I don't know how far that's going to be with tires gone.

[ with only a 20 sense motive, even dumage isn't sure if rose is trying to give friendly tactical advice or just... being a bitch???? so she doesn't look all that happy about it, but w/e. she turns to everyone and speaks up: ] I can't be the only one who hears gunfire. She's right - there's something more going on here than just a medical emergency. I suggest we all stay here where it's safe, and let the police handle this. [ diplomacy 51 (56 for dudes) ]

[WOW THE PRETTY LADY HAS A POINT. And Hammer pokes his head out from where he's ducked behind some pews because police sirens make him anxious.] Uh... Yeah. She has a point. We wouldn't wanna, like... be accidentally complicit or... Obstructing! That's the word. [he laughs nervously] There we go. We don't... We don't wanna do that. Some of us can't afford to be hauled in for questioning right now...

[shadowhater]

[ green grunts, thrown off by that and missing entirely both times (atk 19 and 27). as yellow yanks his weapon out of his suit, he apparently does so TOO fast, because he crit failed and dropped it and now it's on the floor, amazing. WHATEVER, he will five foot step in and just try to hit her then!!!1 but his 13 isn't doing anyone any favors.

there's the crack of bullets as red fires, shooting the wall beside her (atk 16 and then landing a shot (atk 26, dmg 10).

decker looks enraged by buffy's comment, and despite suffering a barrage of more bullet wounds, he keeps going like some unstoppable truck, slamming a fist into the back of her head (atk 31, dmg 11) and then his second takes her right in the side with a critical blow (30 dmg), although she manages to avoid his third (atk 13) ]

[witchwoman]

No, please! [Myri surges forward to try to stop them from leaving. Keeping an eye on Dumage's sister can't be a bad idea, right?? And keeping Valentin occupied also seems like a good plan maybe??]

You look as though you might faint. You've had such a terrible ordeal, miss. Please... Let me see to you. Your groom will want to see you at your best once he's well, I imagine...

[Diplomacy nat 20, 40 total.]

[nothingsodivine]

[Oh shit. That is... really clever, Myri, though Des looks like he'd rather swallow glass than hang out with Prince Fancypants over here, who can SEE RIGHT THROUGH HIS BULLSHIT. AND KNOWS HE MIGHT BE UP TO SOMETHING.]

Um... Yeah, you might be running straight into the danger. [He winces as Gar's message for back-up comes over his earpiece. oh shit this is not good.]

[rationalizes]

We... we have to try. [ with that, gar cranks the wheel and decides to break to the right through the parking lot (drive check 20 - 8 from blown tires = 12...) which means that she sideswipes a car in the parking lot with the ambulance, which unleashes a horrible screeching sound as they press past it ]

[opportune]

But where we will go? [ amanda looks swayed, but uncertain as she glances towards the building ] My sister told me it's dangerous to stay here.

[princesmarming]

[ valentin hears that gunfire, and hesitates, seeing the logic in what they're saying too. he puts a hand on amanda's shoulder, glancing at his entourage. ] I do not think we can make it to my limousine now. Something is happening out there.

[littledhampir]

[With one last look in Dumage's direction and satisfied at least that she's got this under control, Rose offers a curt nod before peeling away from her and starting to push through the crowd (Escape Artist 31).

Hearing the gunshots coming from the coatroom (listen 29/33), Rose comes to a stop in the lobby and will be running off to investigate that... next round.]

[doubletake]

[Elena barely even acknowledges that she's been shot, making only a soft noise as she speaks over the comms:]

We'll be there as soon as we can.

[The front needs as many people as they can get, so she's hoping to avoid them sending the two of them backup when they will hopefully not need it.

That done, she fires two more shots at Decker before firing her heroic surge shot at red for making her bleed her own blood (atk nat20/26/29/23, dmg 30/10/8/10 & atk 30/36crit, dmg 12/22, heroic surge 3/5).]

[bigbad]

Bloody hell! [This is fun for someone with vampire hearing. But it mostly just makes him madder as he growls and hurls himself the rest of the distance towards Kitty, finishing up with a kick to her knee (atk 36, dmg 26 with penetration).]

[isisagent]

[As they're like 3/4 of the way there...]

...Maybe we should have just jacked that cop's car?

[recruited]

[ He doesn't feel a hundred percent happy to be stuck inside the ambulance during all of this. He's never been the type to sit on his hands and just run from the trouble. Steve's always been the one to run towards it to protect people. Which is exactly why he reaches for the compartment he stashed his shield and grabs it. He glances at the group. ] I'm gonna try to keep them from following. Don't stop. [ Then he turns to throw himself at the doors. He jumps (nat 20 with 36 total) from the moving ambulance and lands on his shield to skid across the pavement. ]

[witchwoman]

I know it isn't very dignified, but... The bell tower, perhaps? It may not be the most dignified, but I imagine it would at least be quiet.

[So I swear to god, I re rolled the diplomacy check and...got another nat 20. Myri is serious business right now.]

[graveflowers]

In hindsight, probably. [ but she doesn't look like she's going to turn around and run back to do so. IN FACT, she's going to use a heroic surge (1/4) to throw her arm out and cast heightened entangle on the run, hoping to catch the cops and cars of a-e in her mess of roiling vines and creepers that burst out of the nearby grass and gardens. ] I'll cover you if you wanna run back!

[slay]

[ The punishment Decker deals does a good job of staggering Buffy, dazing her for a moment before she rallies to throw an elbow back at him like gET OFF, following it with a slam of his own gun against his head (two-weapon fighting atk 35/41, dmg 13/15). ]

Didn't anyone ever teach you when to quit?!

[ The rest of her attacks are dealt to Green in a flurry of punches aimed mostly at the abdomen, nonlethal in contrast to the way she didn't hold back against Decker himself (atk 39/29/24, dmg 20/18/19). Anything in excess of Green's hit points will be redirected at Yellow, but I doubt that'll take him down entirely ... ]

[shadowhater]

[ buffy's blows to decker actually send him slamming backwards through the door, the door crashing open into the lobby as he slams to the ground, amid screams from the four civilians out there. he goes limp on the ground, apparently out for the count.

speaking of out for the count, buffy's final blow takes down green, just as elena's bullets are peppering red over there. seeing their boss go down, yellow tucks and rolls on the ground around buffy (tumble 21), turning to fire back at her when he gets out the door, likely more to discourage her from following, than actually trying to hit her (atk 15). red is literally backed into a corner, and keeps shooting at elena (atk 21/atk 9), increasing frazzled as he watches these two down so many of the others. ]

[pathology]

Steve!! [hoooly shit. well she is going to close the doors behind him. good luck son.]

[shootfirst]

[ realizing that C's car is going to attempt to follow the ambulance, kat sprints forward and then waves a hand at it... and abruptly the siren of the vehicle dies, and the car slows to a halt as she uses shutdown on it. officer C visibly reacts with confusion, before looking up and noticing kat, shouting something at his partner. D leans out his window, shooting at the mage (atk 14) and then landing a critical hit in her stomach (nat 20, dmg 14) causing her to let out a loud: ] FUCK!

[ F and G both drive their vehicles forward, trying to surround steve. H, I, and J take advantage of the new cover to move up behind G's vehicle. K backs up to block the only viable exit out of the parking lot into the street. A, B, and E all keep their guns trained on Steve, readying an action to fire if he makes a move. ]

[bonquas]

[ meanwhile, spike lands a vicious kick on kitty, who grunts but keeps her balance, and backs away, calling to the guards on the steps to: ] STOP HIM! [ before doing a full retreat across the lawn in the directions of the cops, raising both hands as she moves towards the cops, looking very convincingly the victim here (bluff 41). the two guards make their way down to flank spike, both trying to grab him by the arm. he gets one attack of opportunity against gray (atk 29, dmg 12), preventing him from getting that close, but orange grabs him (melee touch atk 29: opposed grapple 30 vs. 41) and spike shakes him off violently. ]

[nothingsodivine]

[Man Myri you mean business here. Des thinks that over and realizes that while it's going to give Valentin and Amanda a view of the carnage, it also gives them a view of it.]

Yeah, it's probably the safest place at this point.

1/2

[opportune]

[ she looks up at valentin for a moment, reaching up to put her hand on top of his with a hint of gratitude and urgency about not wanting to stay out here WITH THE BULLETS ] Fine. Let's go.

[princesmarming]

Alright. We'll go with you. [ he nods to myri, but then fixes des with a hard look ] But you're going back inside. [ he nods towards the doors back into the chapel ]

[allmydreams]

[Since Felicity is not Steve "I just like to throw myself out of moving vehicles" Rogers she is not going to jump out of the car to help with the fight, but she will get ready to do some fighting if K follows through with blocking their way out. She shifts to go roll down the passenger side window and prepares to shoot K winds up blocking their way.]
