Re: The Colony - Day 2
Somewhere East of Firelight Base: Carmine Forest (Sector 9), Orc Slave Camp (Inside Marcus' Cell); Circe
Marcus seemed to ignore Circe's brief lapse into memory lane, looking down at her. After a few moments, he clears his throat, catching her attention again.
"I understand. I'll pretend to be your slave for now... Just see if you can at least free my arms without arousing suspiscion." He said, nodding to the smaller bioid.
As Circe left the room, the small area in the barracks fell silent as all attention was drawn to woman, the figure of Marcus dominating her frame from behind. Lullana was standing in front of two male humans, looking between the blindfolded figures. Judging by their uniforms, one was a medic, the other an engineer. She moved over to the orcess companion, tapping her on the shoulder and motioning to Marcus, nodding up to Lullana.
"I've got mine," She said.
Somewhere East of Firelight Base: Carmine Forest (Sector 9), Orc Slave Camp (Barracks); Lullana, (and later) Circe, Marcus
Lullana was about to walk into the cell, right as Marcus was pledging himself to Circe - probably exposing the two... until the Grunt felt a powerful hand grip her shoulder. Almost afraid it was Sivan, Lullana spins, about ready to strike out - only to be stare into the chest of the orc Juggernaut. She draws her arm across her chest in a quick salute, holding it until Karnak did the same.
"<A certain Sister has told me the reason of your visit. You're to find a slave, make it yours, and leave. Your training as Grunt has lasted far longer than anyone else in your clan,>" Karnak said gruffly... From the way he was speaking, and how he was saying the exact thing that Tereani had told her, Lullana knew exacly which 'Sister' had been giving him information, "<Now go. Pick a healthy male or female...>" With a snort, he added, "<Although hard to tell which is healthy. They all have some sort of pasty quality to their skin... Ah, right. Pick a healthy one, go to your encampment, and bed them. Why not one of the two males there?>"
He gestured to the two men she had been eyeing earlier, both blindfolded and chained to the ground, "<They have yet to be chosen... Of course, there are many more here in our camp for you.>
"<Also, just, please lie to Tereani if you don't pick your first slave. Being reassigned is not something I wish to have happen,>" Karnak grunted, giving Lullana a hearty slap on the back. The orcess stumbled forward, gaining her composure as the Juggernaught walked down the long hallway to her right. With a bit of a sigh, Lullana made her way back to the two slaves, looking down at them with slight disinterest. Maybe no one could replace Ethan...
As the thought slips through her mind, someone else vies her attention, tapping on her shoulder. Looking back around, she sees the tall, genetic hybrid the humans had created first, looking down at her with fierce yellow eyes, Circe at least four heads shorter than him. The woman nodded up at Lullana.
"I've got mine," She said.
Abstergo East Campus: 'Greeting' Center (Floor 1); Cassidy, Jethro, Emily, Skora, Kardas and Ninaski
"I... Honestly have no idea which one of you is the leader for the group," The captain looked at Kardas and Cassidy, glancing at Skora as she began to speak.
"So, you were part of this horde... unwillingly, it sounds. Our VIP has some questions you may be able to answer. We may have to decline a... research agreement... but seeing as how Sally is Alliance Property, she may leave as soon as her current testing is finished. Now,,, if you wouldn't mind following my associate, we can show you where this 'Nanako' is," He gestured to the soldier on his right, the one first to respond to his orders.
"Now, as for... you," The captain nodded to Kardas, "'Crazy', as your comrade calls you. What can I do to make you believe our offers of peace?" The captain crossed his arms, eyeing the woman with her pistol still at the ready, "...New pistol, maybe?"
"Leave my circuitry alone, or else I won't help you control Archibald! It's not like I'm asking you to kill EVERY Abstergo soldier you encounter. Just the ones who made you like... whatever you are.
"Like every Abstergo soldier, since they're all responsible for the sins of the past."
The soldier to the right of the group sidled over to them, nodding as he approached.
"Jenkins," He said, in a sort of awkward greeting. His face was covered up by a helmet like the captain and the other soldier, "...Nice joke about the eye," He said, looking over to Jethro.
((Post incoming for the other group tomorrow. Their recent epic rolls have forced me to think of a different action for the Orcess.
...assholes...))
