WHO || Failboat and more... [closed]
WHAT || The Knights move on a warehouse in NYC to try and save Jeanne Gar & Rafael Giovanni
WHERE || New York City, New York
WHEN || Summer 2016
HOW || Actionspam or prose

The plan has been set, and the Knights are on their way to New York City once again - this time with the desperate hope fueling them that they can save two of their own, instead of simply endangering them further.  Jack and Buffy have greater stakes in this than anyone - as it is Jack's fiancee, Gar and the love of Buffy's life, Rafael, who are currently in the grip of the vile villains that have plagued them for the last four years.  Knowing fully well the risks that are inherent in potentially facing down the dangerous Mind Master, who shattered Myri's life in an instant by breaking Finnick Odair's psyche, their plan is to divide and search the warehouse as quickly as possible - knowing that every second counts, when an alerted team of bad guys could take the lives of their captured friends.  

It's an unparalleled gamble, but may be their only opportunity before Rafael and/or Gar are moved from the facility.  To that end, they converge at a nearby hotel...

[What was Spike just saying about improvising?!

Yeah she's got nothing to say that hasn't already been said but she is on her feet, waiting for Jack's call.]

[ jack evinces no sign of being ruffled by the change in plan, but he does nod to felicity after a slight pause ] I think that might be wise, yes.

[ kat glances over at spike, who can see that there are lots of passerbys stopping to get a look at the scene as police try to give them space. there's a blood splatter against the side of a building, and the body bag itself is incredibly large - he wouldn't judge the occupant to be human. ]

I'm not taking that bet.

[allmydreams]

[Felicity nods, and after grabbing one of the comms will leave the room to head down to the scene, if there are no objections.]

[littledhampir]

I'll keep an eye on the hallway, just in case.

[And assuming there's no objections, Rose will follow after Felicity and embrace the pace and wait outside the room. (Spot 31, Listen 35).]

[ With her 39, presumably Buffy notices the same thing, and it seems to be the only thing that loosens her shoulders and allows her eyes to finally draw away from the body bag. Her exhale comes late enough that it makes her realize she'd been holding her breath in the first place. Tension drains out of her body, though not entirely—it means their friends are still alive, for now. ]

It's not Jack or Gar. Wouldn't be that big.

[postergirl]

Did you expect them to drop their dead bodies on our doorstep as a warning to back off?

[bigbad]

They'd have to know we're here to do that. [Which they... sure might. They can't count on the element of surprise. But they can hope for it.]

[shootfirst]

If they do, then we're all fucked.

[slay]

If the Mind Master's in there, they definitely do.

[chessing]

Time to find out, I imagine. [ he lowers his hand from his ear after speaking with felicity ] It seems unrelated.

Let's waste no further time.
