[If possible, his frown deepens more at the mentioning of security, and he nods quietly.]

I will pass on the information to some of the others. We cannot follow each other blindly for the next step.

[And he'll do just that, stepping away for a moment to speak to some of the others who he had identified as willing to take responsibility of the group. It's not long before he moves back to Sheena.]

I'll continue to guard the rear.

You better get in whatever truck we end up taking outta here, Albert. [That's that. She wouldn't be able to face herself otherwise. Without speaking too loudly, she tries to lay out for him in words what their next steps will be: a couple small blasts will go off on one side of the warehouse room, which will give them hopefully enough seconds to rush a supply truck from the other side.]

So when we get out there, you get in front. You're gonna have to drive probably.

And if there are no keys in the ignition, I suppose we will have to wing it, won't we? [There's a flat sarcasm to his voice, even as he nods in agreement with what she intends to do.

He again relays the information to the others in the group, motioning for them to take position to cover the children. Once he is satisfied with everyone's positioning, Albert turns his head to Sheena, motioning for her to begin.]

Isn't that what we do best?

[And then they're off. It goes quickly because it has to, there aren't any second chances. There's barely a first chance. One of the blasts goes off a little early, but she factored that in, and she rushes their little escape party along under cover of shouts and noise from a second seal bursting. The nearest supply truck is running, at least; she can't tell at her angle if there's a driver inside or not. It is idle, backhatch open.

For the space of three breaths she thinks it might actually work.

Then someone with a big heavy thing connects that thing to the backs of her knees and she goes down, less than graceful. Either they knew, or they had more support than she realized, or something else. She hopes for the something else as she gets back up to keep going. Hopefully Albert wasn't wasting time looking back.]

[He doesn't see Sheena go down; it's one of the others who he had been relaying orders to who does, and he's shouting, panicked and torn between leading the his group to one of the vehicles and stopping -- a truly foolish decision to linger on, considering the whole detention center has come alive with the explosive distraction and the getaway.

Albert arcs his arm and shouts for the others to go, even before he's spinning around and quickly looking for Sheena. The blast he releases from his hand--from his ring, really--only stuns the huge cultist who struck Sheena, but that's all the time needed for one of the stragglers to grab at Sheena and half-drag, half-carry her towards the supply truck, where the others are quickly loading the kids as fast as they can.

He backs up and glances over his shoulder to judge the distance behind him, hands already twitching--anxiously, in pain--as he focuses inwardly to call upon Tsinku. The next energy blast he shoots is wrapped in lightning, branching out as it strikes the huge cultist and other enemies nearby.]

I'm okay, keep going! [As she shakes off her fellow escapee's help. She's fine, it just took her by surprise the way the lightning does and as soon as she sees it, she flinches and turns her head away. This is not the place for a panic attack. There's a charge to the air and she can feel it, most particularly around the earring in her left ear. Damn useful thing.

Right on cue - on cue because Sheena's in control of the seals, of course - another small explosion happens, this one much closer to the scene of the escape. Dust scatters in the air, though not enough to really hamper visibility. The whole point is to bring about confusion.

Almost all of the kids are in the truck; Sheena hops up onto the back of it, helping some of the less mobile adults inside. Albert is still out there playing Volt with the people or something, and she'll wave him forward as soon as she catches his eye.]


Let's go!
chikaidestroyer: (Frustration)

[personal profile] chikaidestroyer 2013-09-02 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
[Albert continues to back away from the growing chaos, his ringed hand curled against his chest as he focuses on another stunning blast to stop the pursuing cultists. Then he's being pulled back by one of the other escapees, and he runs for the front of the idle truck as the last few adults climb into the back.

Brakes. Clutch. Wheel. Gas. Everything he needed was there.]


We're going!

[He looks in the rear view mirror to see the last person scramble in and just about floors the gas, feeling the ground underneath them quake from more than the movement of the truck. He hears a woman shriek and the sound of something piercing metal, looking to his passenger side to see a spire of stone had torn into the door. The stone crumbles but leaves a gaping hole, sending a rush of air into the vehicle as it speeds through the warehouse.]

[Earth spells? Sheena almost falls from her perch on the back of the truck. The ground is still shaking, more spires popping up; at least a handful are out of range of their path. There's no reliable way to close or wall off the back, either, and Sheena chooses to stand there with a death grip on one edge and be a shield if necessary. Buffeted by air and bumpy road, it isn't an easy place to remain.

With her precious few remaining seals in hand, she tosses one out behind the truck, an explosive sort meant to raise enough smoke and dust to buy them time. They need distance between themselves and the cultists.]

[He has to focus on the road ahead, especially when it becomes apparent that the stone spires just keep coming; the ride is bumpy and dangerous at best, and his arm trembles violently as the stress causes it to react badly. The truck veers sharply as a stone wall seems to erupt in the street in front of them, and he slams on the brake before downshifting and accelerating down the way again. He gasps aloud as debris strikes the windshield hard enough to cause it to crack--

But in the distance, he can see uniformed people with wings. Mages, gunners, and people with strange types of weaponry -- launching volleys at the pursuing cultists.]
corrinesbell: (in total shock // oh right)

[The braking took her out, momentum carrying her forward into the truck, only to find her fall cushioned by terrified escapees. A few more bruises in her collection are nothing by now, and as the truck speeds up again she fumbles her way up to her knees.

Then, she sees that their pursuers are under attack. Some force she can't see must be involved, peppering them with blasts and bullets. At last, luck she had neither planned for nor counted on. Some other sharp turn of Albert's (he thinks I can't drive) startles a nearby child into striking his head on the side of the truck; when he starts to wail, Sheena reaches over and holds onto him.

If those attacks weren't coming from friendly forces, then he might need someone to be there as they were caught in the middle.]

[Albert is forced to stop the truck some distance from the line of Security Forces personnel, braking hard and jerking the steering wheel enough so that the broadside of the truck faces their pursuers. He struggles to turn around after the sudden stop, blinking hard as the ruined passenger door is pulled open and he's yanked out of the truck by a Security Forces soldier wielding some sort of gun.

He hits the ground with the thud and immediately finds his hands restrained behind his back, pain shooting up his cursed arm as he gasps and tries to recover from the sudden fall. Over the din of gunfire, he yells at the soldier to let him go and take care of the truck.

Meanwhile, the firefight between the Security Forces and the pursuing cultists continues. Some of the soldiers take cover behind the truck, maneuvering a little closer to fire at the cultists. Some of the cultists, realizing the truck is now in the hands of the Security Forces, begin backing off.]

[As soon as the truck makes its hard stop, Sheena tries to get to the back of it again, ready to stand before their freed prisoners and face whatever threat might come. She hears some kind of noise from the driver's direction, and seconds later a handful of soldiers crowds around the back of the truck, grabbing her out of it and giving her a similar on-the-ground arms-pinned treatment.]

Hey, lemme go! [Wiggling is pretty useless, whoever's holding her down is damn heavy and she's tired.] We're not with them, we just escaped!

[Her new captor doesn't seem to want to hear it. Not from her.]
chikaidestroyer: (Head bowed)

[personal profile] chikaidestroyer 2013-10-13 10:41 pm (UTC)(link)
[The pain of his arm distracts him thoroughly from the continued fighting just out of sight from his place on the ground, and it seems like a long time before Albert can look up again and see that the Security Forces are starting to turn the majority of their attention to the truck instead of the cultists.

He grimaces as he's allowed to sit up and lean against the truck's tire, and he wearily answers questions about who he is and what enclosure he's from and what had just happened. Out of immediate danger now, he can't say he's surprised by this treatment; with the TERRACE invaded, the soldiers had to account for these further breaches in security.]
corrinesbell: (in for it now)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2013-10-14 04:38 pm (UTC)(link)
[Well Sheena's surprised. Two of the soldiers haul her back up, keeping a grip on her arms while a third, someone of higher rank, asks her similar questions to the ones Albert's getting. She doesn't dance around the answers but she isn't happy about this treatment either; when they finally let her go, she glares and shrugs off the hands on her arms and tries to head for the back of the truck, to help them unload captives instead. The business end of a weapon prods her forward, away from the area, and someone else half-forces her to sit - on the ground beside Albert, right as they finish questioning him.

Sheena looks at him, once they're left relatively alone.]


You left out all my good parts.
chikaidestroyer: (Dead inside)

[personal profile] chikaidestroyer 2013-10-25 07:56 pm (UTC)(link)
[Albert sighs wearily as he flexes his aching arm, trying to calm down. The constant noise of the fighting in the background was far enough away now that it did not cause too much stress, so the pain had faded down to a dull throb. He glances over as Sheena looks at him, snorting softly.]

I thought you could embellish all on your own.
corrinesbell: (what you don't know)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2013-10-28 12:53 pm (UTC)(link)
[Now that it's all over, or as over as it's going to get, Sheena finds she just wants to sleep. Give it all over and lose the world for a while.]

See if I make you the hero in a story again. [Only part of her is joking.]

You're okay, right?
chikaidestroyer: (Hooded expression)

[personal profile] chikaidestroyer 2013-11-03 11:08 pm (UTC)(link)
I'll be fine.

[It's meant to be reassuring, but it just comes out tired-sounding. He doesn't even bother to make a dismissive gesture with his good hand as he leans back against the vehicle.]

We're in a much better place, at least.
corrinesbell: (take a knee)

[personal profile] corrinesbell 2013-11-04 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
Oh yeah. Back with the Malnosso. Best place in the whole world.

[Under her breath, she huffs as she shuts her eyes.] Idiot.

[It is the most affectionate word she knows for someone at Albert's level of trust.]
chikaidestroyer: (Head bowed)

[personal profile] chikaidestroyer 2013-11-06 04:24 am (UTC)(link)
[He snorts when he hears Sheena mutter something under her breath, figuring it can't be anything particularly nice about him. He's more than content to just remain there for now, resting.]

...Next time, you're driving.
