She smiles at the name. "I'll call him Ren for short. Useful little thing." Thessa followed nimbly up the ladder, finding herself naturally quiet and graceful. A playful smirk stretched across her lips.

'Dancing might be fun now.' she let the thought wander for a brief moment before focusing her attention again, but her smirk remained.

"I never have been one for a quiet kill. I'll follow your lead." She quieted down and listened and looked around her.

the city is quiet, nothing moves in the dark but you do notice something.

Horus is moving extremely labored. his breathing is hard and he seems to be favoring his righty shoulder alot.



Soon enough you are outside the libraries maintainece entrance.


"camo on..."

horus whjispers as he flickers out of view

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa slips her helmet on and presses a button, activating her camouflage. "Permission to take point, sir." she asked quietly into the intercom. Her HUD flashed up, taking in her surroundings.

permission granted.


He answers, opening the door very slowly to let her enter as you see two long blades appear for just a moment than fade from view

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa grips her sword, holding it out, the blade in line with her body and pointing at the ground. Better her sword hit a trap than her body. She carefully steps through the door, scanning around.

yoou see nothing, but you can hear the people inside.


they are talking, agitated about wahtever plan fell through.

"Where are they....we should have horus by now..."

one grunts as you round a corner, exposing four men sitting beside a fire.

[Lafayra Rue]

"Horus..." she whispered into the com. "I remember...when I used to fight...I liked to dance through my moves. Quick, agile, graceful....Was it you I danced with?"

She surveyed the room, taking notes of doors and other places of entry or escape, weapons and potential weapons, how much room they had to maneuver and the obstacles that impeded movement, and if they had an visible devices to call for help.

horus says nothing as he moves behind one of the sleeping men away from the safty of the fire and quiely slides the knice into the center of the skull killing him instantly.


"Yes...I danced with you dear....Often."


One of the men stands up and takes a plate away from the ring of fire walking into the darkness to a sink away from prying eyes

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa moves swiftly up behind the man at the sink, thrusting her blade hard into his neck, attempting to sever the spinal cord. She braces herself to catch his weight when he fell.

The man lets out a pained grunt and the men by the fire look at the darkness curiously.

"Seth....Mn you ok?"

Another man gets up and begins walking into the darkness as the man in youir arms goes limp and bleeds out all over your hand.

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa turns with the man still in her arms and throws him at his companions. "Never better." She runs after the body, using it and the man in front of it as a boost to flip over and send her blade through the chest of one of the others.

the manuuever fails, and you land hard on your knee with a sickening crack. The blade sails through the air and takes the man in the throat as horus grips the remaining hunter by the back of the herad and slams him face first into the fuire.


The horrible screams are hidden by the coals and the horrible stench of cooking flesh fills the air as horus holds him in place until his fretting stops.

"Too flashy.."

Horus grunts, letting the man go and walking over to you, offering to help you up

[Lafayra Rue]

She takes the offered hand and stands. "Fighting is no fun unless you get creative." She moves to the corpses, slightly favoring her knee, searching for some bandage wrapping. "Fighting is all I have right now. Hard to enjoy much else when its all you remember." Her nostrils flare at the smell of burning flesh.

[Thugren]

as you search you see a door sldie open and an odd silver peek out. Before you can react you hear al oud bang and before you know it horus has flung his hand out. Blood stains your face in a hot spray and a loud bang answers it as horus blasts the door apart with his shot gun.

'fuck.."

He grunts, gripping his hand to his chest, blood pouring down his front,.

"This is going to take a while.."

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa forgoes the bandages and grabs one of the corpses shirts, tearing it into strips.

"Give me your hand."

Fuck it."


Horus growls, clenching his fist tightly as he pushes past her.

"The nanites will handle the wound...THat gunshot probably alerted any of the fucks in here."

He walks over to the runed door and fuinds the groaning body of the man who fired at you.

"go investigate.....My suit is satying there is one more in the building...Haul ass sargeant."

he growls, placing his boot on the mans skull and slowly applying pressure until a wet crunch is heard.

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa salutes. "Yes, sir!" Retrieving her sword she wets her thumb in Horus' blood that had splattered her face, and as she moves past him she gently wipes a streak underneath his left eye. "We rendezvous outside, time limit is the same as always."

Activating her camo, she glides down the stairs, keeping eyes and ears out.

"ANyone still alive?"

you hear him call out.

"anyone?"

[Lafayra Rue]

Thessa stops at the corner of the wall, and slowly peeks around both corners to see who was down there and with what.
