ooc: Konnichiwa chaps! It looks like you guys went a bit crazsy while i was gone, Drakko and Fisher in particular. This could take some untangling.
Sorry about the use of random characters in this post.
As she came over the hill Grace spotted something out of the corner of her eye and looked over the city to see the fireball shooting into the sky. She swore.
She could have kicked herself. How could she have forgotten about the arson here so quickly? And now whoever did that seemed to be at it again. Her thoughts flashed to the tiger people and she tried to work out how quickly they could have got into the city walking through the undergroud service roads.
but then Silvia beside her brought her back to the present and she grabbed her radio.
Grace: "This is Grace Fuller, I just saw the fire above the city, what happened?"
THe voice on the other side was of a usually mild-mannered seargent called Vincent Hunter who she new well.
Hunter: "This hole town has gone crazy today! It seems to have just been some sort of very over-exuberant firework but it started just outside the station and no one saw anything that could have started it, and it doesnt seem to have actually done anything except scare everyone sh!tless. But don't worry about that, what's happening over there?"
Grace: "I haven't been able to get very close yet," It was a pretty pathetic excuse, but she wouldn't say she just forgot. "I was some suspicious people walking into the service ducts under the highway but wasn't able to follow them. They mentioned the mafia, they might be involved in all this. Do you think they could get into the city by the time that flarte went off?"
Hunter: "I doubt it. Donovan swears he was looking out the window at the time and saw the fireball errupt from some guy on the street. but the mafia thing might be right, and it'd seem they've been planning for a while. We've got both the Russians and the Americans shouting at us about some attacks on them, nothing we can make anything of and we can't claim they're the mafia so we're meant to be doing something, like they've planned to give us grief the day they set off this plan. Plus a patient from a hospital near the suspected Russian base was apparently smashed up by a patient who seemingly went insane, killed some people, smashed and generally rampaged. We're all over the place."
Grace: "Hunter, I found a witness up here, I'm gonna bring her into the station, she might be able to tell us something about what's going on. I guess what we really need to do right now is to find out the point of all this."
Hunter: "Alright, get her down here, we can probably find someone to talk to her. Over and out."
Grace turned to Silvia and, without giving her a chance to speak, "Alright, there's my car. Get in and we'll get you down the station. Odd knows what's happening here to day but it would be useful if you could tell us where you come into all it."
If it's ok with you Gretin, I'll assume Sylvia gets in the car, and they drive towards the city.
=====================
Meanwhile, Pseok was flying above the dam, trying to keep between it and the close-to-setting sun.
He noticed when Fisher seemed to focus suddenly on something, and then a crack spread slowly up the front of the dam A strwam of water began to squeeze out, and then that stream quickly became quite a lot. Something was definately going on, and it was nothing good.
And Pseok decided he'd like to know what.
So with all the recklessness he possessed, he flew as fast as he could towards Fisher, claws outstretched with the intention of skull-grabbing.
