For f---'s sake, Joker. I asked that only people who would actively participate in the soap join. It's not that difficult. e-e'

"Oh, great..." Nikkili yapped at Vivian, which was almost indistinguishable under the heavy fire they were put under. He then threw a small revolver over to Vivian, stating "It's either shoot or BE SHOT!". He then pulled his shirt off, and threw it to try and wrap around his arm, covering a small shot wound in his fore-arm.
He then un-strapped his kevlar vest, and then wrapped it around the shatter window, taking a defensive position. He then sputtered some bullets from his AR, followed by a few screams from now-dead muggers. "SHOOT!" -
Perfect timing. :)

Maru tilted her head further until she felt her neck pop and then took a few steps back, examining the place the girl had come out of. Looked like a run of the mill diner. She considered scratching it off as an odd occurrence, but the girl was definitely unfamiliar, and with the world in the state it was, no one did much in the way of travelling between cities anymore.
It wasn't a conscious decision but an impulse that told her she was going to tail the girl, if only for a little while. -
(Bumping for our friends.)

A section of the dilapidated wall exploded next to Vivian, showering her in wood chips. As she waved the wood off her clothes, Vivian was struck with a sudden sense of just how helpless she was. If those bullets could tear a building apart, just what would they do to her?
Nikkili was shouting at her, and before she knew it a six bullet revolver was sliding towards her. She lunged for it hastily, but instead just kept it pressed to her chest. A bullet whizzed past her, just missing, as she forced herself against the wall. "I. Don't. Fight. I'm different now, sir. It's bad karma; I can't steal from someone, I can't do bad to someone, and I certainly can't shoot someone! I've...I've changed!" -
Reyna walked on. It wasn't long before she turned and caught a glimpse of the strange woman. Tailing her. Cursing under her breath, she took another nonchalant sip of her coffee. Don't be suspicious, She told herself, turning down another street. She didn't lengthen her stride, didn't appear worried, although her mind raced.
She continued to evaluate her tail, though. From the brief glimpses Reyna had caught of the woman, she knew what she was doing. Then again, she could be just an ordinary mugger.
Something told Reyna that wasn't the case. -
"Are you completely use-less?!" Nikkili shouted out as he used his vest as a shield. Fire erupted from his assault rifle, followed by several screams of agony. There were large holes instead of small ones from his AR, though, so it must have had hollow-point rounds. "You can either kill people in self-defense, or give me the gun and I leave you here to die, dammit!" Nikkili erupted almost ferociously, making several more mugglers drop.
The fire-fight had ceased reasonably, but it was still very dangerous to walk out-side. There must have been a small army of the b------s! "If you don't shoot now, you're going to be shot!" Nikkili pleaded, pointing at the now-almost-destroyed wooden wall. -
IHLAOY NoviceLooking out the shattered remains of her friends home, Vivian picked out individual bodies and enemies shuffling around our of cover. Damn amateur level mistakes. Taking the gun, Vivian poked it through the wall; recoiling as more bullets flew past her.
She knew from experience that there was no such thing as a non lethal shot. When you shoot, you're trying to kill someone or you're not. There is no in between. You can't just aim at an arm or a leg and hope to disable people, most of the time that's just as lethal; and twice as painful in the long run.
Swallowing, Vivian turned to Nikkili, "Killing someone is never right. Self defense or not. Maybe if we just give them want they want, they'll leave us alone. I have at least 5K bucks in this house, we give them that they'll leave. Trust me, nobody wants to be a murderer if they can avoid it. A common mugger doesn't want that kind of blood on his hands." -
(Just a quick check-in. I need to make dinner. Be back as soon as I can after this.)
Maru kept on the girl, always on the other side of the street, always a safe enough distance, although she had to wonder if anyone significant could really be unaware of her presence. She did her best to evaluate the girl's behavior, but she appeared disappointingly normal. Maru sighed. This wasn't accomplishing anything.
"Be someone useful." she muttered irritably in the general direction of the girl. -
Reyna smiled lightly as she heard the other mutter something. It was undecipherable, but she could detect hints of impatience in it. No doubt the woman was getting bored, which meant Reyna was succeeding in her mission. At this point Reyna was certain the woman was not just another mugger.
With a quick thought, she had darted down a side alleyway. If the woman was looking for something exciting, then that's what Reyna was going to give her. She turned on her heel, up another alley. The streets were complex things, full with secrets that writhed like snakes. Honestly, she barely knew them, but that would make this all the more exciting. Finally, an opportunity. So far the most helpful thing she'd done for her cause was hack into the government files, but that hadn't proved very useful. Whatever important secrets the government hid, they kept than much closer than on the computer files.
Smirking, Reyna risked the tiniest glance backwards, appearing lost. -
*Them, not than

Maru didn't think too much, but barreled off after the girl, eyes stinging against the wind. She needed to get some sunglasses or something. Having been working on mapping these streets for a while now, navigation was a lot easier than it had been during her first outing here- during which she had gotten tragically lost. She wasn't sure what the girl was trying to do at this point, and it bothered her to no end.
She turned corners after the girl, only vaguely recognizing that she'd blown her cover entirely, if she had ever been covered in the first place. -
Nikkili shouted out "Shut up and shoot! Are you really stuck in the 60's?!". He then recoiled as he felt a sharp scalding in his right arm. "Dammit!" he called out, as he felt is was definitely a bullet. He then took his shirt and hastily wrapped it around his bleeding fore-arm, his vest taking up some damage on the window.
"At --" He was cut off as part of the wall surrounding him flew out. He then took out a hidden grenade from his waist, and threw it at a small make-shift cover position. "GET OUT!" "GRENADE!" Were too late, as Nikkili let out a dark grin when he seen much blood and a few limbs fly out, the position blown to hell.
(P.S., I won't be on here tomorrow until around 3:00.) -
Dammit... WRong account. Of course.
