Lenah

Lenah had been spending most of her time inside, in a hospital bed -or was it a sick-bay bed?-, because they didn't like her walking around. Apparently she had managed to break a couple of ribs after all, they had simply not gotten as much bent out of place as they had been smashed. She made a mental note of not underestimating Mirabelle. During her time in the sick-bay, she had taken the time to consider her actions, she really had to apologize for getting upset.

Then Seth had come, probably just to see if she was in any shape to train or battle or whatever he wanted out of her. She had informed him of that it likely wouldn't happen for a while, but that she still wished to a part of it all. With an afterthought, she had also mentioned the fact that she had gotten someone else to take her place, Sol. Whether Seth approved of this, she couldn't tell.

Even now, she had to spend more time resting. Her things, she had been told, would be placed in the new dorm, but she had to stay in the sick-bay for a couple more days. Likely someone had arranged that so that she wouldn't get in trouble, and Lenah had to admit she did like trouble a little too much sometimes. Still, this was getting dull. At least Sol had been there, spoken to her and poked fun at her current state, while scratching those stubbles of his, explaining how difficult it had been to get there.

"You owe me," he had said as he left, and Lenah had just chuckled.

"No," she had replied. "I don't, and you know that very well."

"I had to try, didn't I?" he had asked, and she had just shaken her head. She wondered if any of the others was aware of where she was, and if they were worried. Knowing Seth, he had probably not told them yet.

Solomon

Sol stretched, suitcase fastened on his back. He was walking through the school court-yard, wondering how monsters could afford a school like this, with a court-yard and even a garden. The medical bay where Lenah was had pretty nice too.

Then again, am I really surprised that they have a lot of money?

He was fairly sure of that the richest people in the world had some times to that either way, and who knew, perhaps the crazies screaming lizard overlords weren't as crazy as everyone wanted them to.

Speaking of lizard people... green hair, golden eyes, quite the dashing grin, isn't that the guy I was supposed to talk to? Seth?

"Hi there, Seth, I assume? I mean, she did say I was looking for someone quite handsome." He smirked, though it was somewhat charmingly. "My name is Solomon Thorn, I'm here to... help you with the cultist problem you seem to have. Lenah sent me, according to her you already know that."

 

[Outcast107]

William

While William watch Viktor ate his meal, he began to feel sicken. His skin start to slowly turn pale, greenish color. Groaning lightly as he continue to watch Viktor enjoy his meal. He forgot what he wanted to talk to Viktor about as couldn't stand the sight any longer. Getting up as he heads towards the bathroom. Staying there for the rest of the meal.

---Two days later---

William was finishing the final touches to his room. While he didn't have much to bring with him, he still felt like making sure everything was set right. Smiling as he was sort of glad he had a roommate now that was actually there most of the time. While he wasn't ungrateful for his mentor for taking him in, he was normally never there. Either teacher class, or on some personal trip he took a lot.

Quickly putting the thought aside as William start to head to the commons room. Assuming they reason they were summon was for the first big mission they were assigns. Taking a seat on a chair as he didn't want to hog up the couch as he got comfy and waited for the rest.

Tomas

Tomas was already waiting in the Commons room when William arrived. Tomas didn't fool around with getting his room ready as he could do that later on in the day, or if the mission just so happens to start today, whenever he gets back. Watching William take a seat in a small chair while Tomas stood up, leaning up against the wall. William did a small wave as Tomas nodded. While Tomas didn't believe William should be here, it wasn't his place to speak out against it. If the small kid wanted to prove himself, then good for him.

 

[figment of mind]

"Oh yeah ... Your in his alchemy class aren't you. Well that should simplify things then since he already knows you."

"Hopefully..." Mora said, testing the metal. She heard her friend go and check the door but what happened afterwards didn't register to her. She was confident that Sierra would call out if she needed help. Until then, she would keep experimenting, besides...she wanted to finish up before she was due to meet up with Lenah again.

---2 days later---


Opening the closet door, Mirabelle shoved her bags into the new closet in a manner that could only be considered neat to someone who's only glimpse of an organized space was through a thoroughly dirt covered glass. Still, she had worked hard to keep her part of the room neat enough as is, surely a few bags wouldn't matter in light of that. Well, her part in a figurative sense, as she had mostly piled her stuff into one third of the room, hoping to figure out how much space Lenah needed for her things before trying to take up any more space...

She had placed all of the alchemical equipment she had once had lining the sides of her old room at the foot of the bed, lined up in a way that reminded her of a small army, albeit one made up of intricate yet exotic seige engines. Of the ones she did know how to use, she placed upon the desk, with a couple of the ones from the end of the bed "graduating" to the group as well now that she knew what they were. The wire tree thing, with all the mirrors attached, stood with them, as well as all of the papers that had previously covered her walls, all stacked up and sitting on the corner of the structure. On top of those, sat her father's journal, as well as her own notes, mainly about the now finished Flexisteel and the Phosphorus lamp. Underneath her bed she had stowed some peices of long metal, ready to be shaped into new parts for herself and in the closet, her clothes and of course, the bags, both to one side, just in case Lenah needed more space for her own. Speaking of which...

She wondered where Lenah was, and why she wasn't unpacking too. Mira had gone to the gardens for the past two nights, hoping that she was there and becoming more and more worried when she wasn't. So, when she arrived and saw that her friend's things were here, it gave her reason to be relieved. Still, she would have preferred to see her friend instead of her stuff but at least it was a reassuring sign.

Still, She didn't think waiting on her there would help much, so, against all of her past judgements, she went out and waited in the living room, or whatever you wanted to call it, and waited for the others to finish. She felt nervous about actually meeting some of the new people but if they were going to live together, she might as well try and get to know them. She waved and tried to put on her most comforting smile as she saw Tomas and William there already, before taking a seat in another chair and saying, "Uh...hi? How are you two?"

 

[Athol]

As William turned green and fled, Viktor felt sorry for the boy; but at the same time he had to chuckle. The poor boy isn?t going to last long if he can?t handle a little blood. He thought as he sipped his AB-. Mmm?Male, Asian, Mid-forties?Type 2 diabetic.

--- 2 Days Later ---

Viktor sat in his room going over some intel reports his few contacts here had managed to put together, as well as some stuff Seth?s ?people? had been able to gather. There was a lot of duplicate information, and it was all frustratingly vague. GAAHH! This is why I let Vanya handle the information gathering?she?s got the patience for this. Getting nowhere, he looked up from his task and saw the time. ?? He said to himself.

With no coat on, his holster was plainly visible under his arm as he entered the common room. Nodding a greeting to both Tomas and Will, he secured a spot on the couch; once seated, his head flopped back and he stared blankly at the sealing, trying to clear his mind of the dull reports he?d just spent hour pouring over.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Sierra

True to her word, Sierra talked to the Enchantment/Alchemy Instructor, so she learned what she needed to so she could proceed with buffing Mirabelle, though, naturally, she still had a bit of calculation to do though not as much as she'd first figured.

Past that, she moved into the Gungnir dorm with every one else, much to Viktor's displeasure, and her own amusement, though due to her use of storage gems, she was moved in at set up in the time it took for others to get the first load of stuff in. So she ended up helping a couple others move in.

She also spent some time getting adjusted to the weight of the Claymore Seth gave her. She had to admit it did 'feel' better in her exercises then the Katana did. For now though, like the others, she sat in the commons of they're quarters and waited for Seth to start the meeting.


Seth

"Hi there, Seth, I assume? I mean, she did say I was looking for someone quite handsome." A young man smirked, in a manner Seth assumed he thought somewhat charmingly. "My name is Solomon Thorn, I'm here to... help you with the cultist problem you seem to have. Lenah sent me, according to her you already know that."

"Ah yes, the hunter." Seth said, looking him up and down a bit "Good to see your finally here. I'm about to brief the rest of the team on the first mission." Seth waving a folder as he spoke. "So I hope your ready to sortie."

 

[IFS]

"I think I know some one who would be perfect for you, training wise, my dear."

"I look forward to meeting them then," she said. Soon after the meeting concluded and Seth left, leaving her to head back to her own room and try to get in contact with her superiors, she doubted that Val Ruk would be happy with having been kept waiting so long. As if he wasn't enough of a pain to deal with when he's happy, if he's ever happy that is.

It took time but eventually it was arranged and she sat looking at her boss once more. She put on her best face, smiling, subservient, loyal, doing her best to hide anything annoying like disgust or fear.

"I have news," she said "Seth is here, at Gato, he's leading my unit."

She would save the news about Sierra for a moment, something to brighten the conversation.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Two Days Later

Juliet hadn't had a lot to move in, mostly clothes, and it hadn't taken long to get everything into place. Especially not with the help of a couple boys she'd charmed into carrying the heavier things, though they were sent on their way afterwards. She still had to see what the others were doing, she was sure they'd all be quite busy soon enough.

She moved into the common room to find Viktor, Tomas, and Will already sitting around.

"Hello everyone," she said with a smile "had a good couple of days I hope?"

 

[DarkRawen]

"Ah yes, the hunter. Good to see your finally here. I'm about to brief the rest of the team on the first mission. So I hope your ready to sortie."

"Good, I'd hate to be stuck waiting for something to happen. It's a pleasure, by the way," Sol replied, noticing that Seth was looking him over. "I would have said: "like what you see", but that line should have been shot and killed long ago. So instead I'm going to leave you to it," he grinned, waiting for a couple of minutes, examining all the odd students around them. Some shot him some glances, and those on the handsomer side earned a playful wink, though, it was only that. Sol wasn't stupid, after all, he wasn't going to let his guard down, not there.

Something like that gets you bitten.

He rubbed his neck, then looked to Seth again.

"So, you're in charge of one of the groups of baby lions, surely that must get tiring? What kind of creatures are in the group? That's creatures in the nicest way possible, of course," he added. "Lenah told me a golem did her ribs in. Something about Lenah wanting to blow off some steam because---" he trailed off, realizing that saying that Lenah thought Seth was a dick to the dick in question was perhaps not the best idea.

"Anyways, any werewolves? They're fun, like puppies. Huge, human-like puppies with these weird faces, but people like pugs, so who are they to judge?"

 

[Lunar Templar]

Seth

"The 'golem' in question, is firstly, a Steel Golem, secondly, has a mind for Alchemy." Seth corrected, then decided to let him in on what the team Sol was joining was comprised of, for no other reason then the reaction would likely amuse him. "From there, we have a human, with the most interesting ability to turn is limbs in to sharp metal objects, though I assume he is capable of far more, A 'Shadow' man, ya know, one of those living shadow people, little on the abrasive side, but he'll be very useful I think, there's the Yowie, he and the dragon half seem to men of few words, but great strength. Then there's our fair Succubus, whom, like our shadowy friend, will likely prove very useful."

Seth checked over the contents of the fold one more time "We have a vampire, only a century old, but he has military training and in many ways, more dangerous then his masters. Lastly, there's the half breed demon, Abyssal, highly skilled with a sword, and a head and talent for enchanting and enhancement magics." Seth closed the folder.

"So, do my 'lion cubs' meet your approval?"

 

[DarkRawen]

"The 'golem' in question, is firstly, a Steel Golem, secondly, has a mind for Alchemy. From there, we have a human, with the most interesting ability to turn is limbs in to sharp metal objects, though I assume he is capable of far more, A 'Shadow' man, ya know, one of those living shadow people, little on the abrasive side, but he'll be very useful I think, there's the Yowie, he and the dragon half seem to men of few words, but great strength. Then there's our fair Succubus, whom, like our shadowy friend, will likely prove very useful."

Golem, her name was Mirabelle, I think, and a shadow man, and a human and a yowie, which is something like a really big hairy dude. Also a half-dragon, however that works, and a succubus.

So far, so good. He was surprised to hear about a human who could turn his limps into knives and whatnot, and it was strange for a succubus to even attend a school, but he nodded.

"We have a vampire, only a century old, but he has military training and in many ways, more dangerous then his masters. Lastly, there's the half breed demon, Abyssal, highly skilled with a sword, and a head and talent for enchanting and enhancement magics. So, do my 'lion cubs' meet your approval?"

Right. Cubs, that's the word I was looking for, not baby lions.

"Are you already looking for my approval? That's sweet," Sol replied, joking tone apparent in his voice, and he then shrugged. "As long as they don't try to eat me, I'm fine. Vampires are a bit tricky, though, I've had a couple of... run-ins with their kind. Surprisingly organized bunch. And, with you, there's 3 demons, correct? Bit odd for a bunch of demons to be running around playing school, isn't it?"

Sol didn't know what to think of that, according to Lenah, this had been a college that also helped monsters master themselves. As it seemed, however, there was much to suggest that it might simply be a front.

"However, I am not going to question your tastes, simply inquire on behalf of my curiosity; what is a demon like you doing here?"

 

[Lunar Templar]

Seth just gave Sol a 'really ...' look "Demons aren't uncommon in the human realm Sol. Half breeds like the one in our little group are the most common, fallowed by Succubi and their male counter parts. not to mention the demons that decided that pretending to be human is much better for their long term health then living in the demon realm." Seth corrected as he motioned Sol to follow, no reason to delay the meeting just cause the hunter needed to be set straight. "This school, for example, 5% of it's students and staff, ether are, or are descended from one demon or another, whether they know it or not is another matter, that I simply don't care enough to pursue. You could think of the school as a microcosm for the human realm on the whole, and it'd be fairly accurate."

"So no, they aren't 'playing school' if anything, they are 'playing Hunter'"

 

[DarkRawen]

"Demons aren't uncommon in the human realm Sol. Half breeds like the one in our little group are the most common, fallowed by Succubi and their male counter parts. not to mention the demons that decided that pretending to be human is much better for their long term health then living in the demon realm."

"I know how common they are," Sol replied, noticing that Seth seemed to be reacting somewhat... defensively? Condescendingly? No matter, it didn't matter, he simply smirked more, eyes kept on Seth's, showing confidence and wits.

"I deal with a lot of demons, after all." Deal was definitely the right word. Sure, he had killed a couple of them with the help of other hunters, but it was surprising how much more some of them preferred talking, or even trading. Of course, he'd never taken a demon's deal, nor did he intend to, but that was more for his own morality than anything else. At some point he had to start following some sort of religious ideal, not selling his soul to demons seemed to be the best place to start.

I mean, it's either that or abstaining from drinking, items or, god forbid, sexual relations.

"This school, for example, 5% of it's students and staff, ether are, or are descended from one demon or another, whether they know it or not is another matter, that I simply don't care enough to pursue. You could think of the school as a microcosm for the human realm on the whole, and it'd be fairly accurate. So no, they aren't 'playing school' if anything, they are 'playing Hunter'"

"If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck..." Sol replied, trailing off with a cheeky tone, allowing somewhat of a break before he continued. "Then it could still very well be possessed, and in need of a good drenching of holy water. But I digress, if it insults your clearly pure intentions, then perhaps we should discuss something else. Like..." he tilted his head.

"Like, where am I supposed to stay? I assume I can't just take over Lenah's room, and I don't know how comfortable I'd be staying in a room with a monster. Of course, I could be talked into spending the night in your room, but I have a feeling you'd be too shy to even ask," Sol then said, amused.

 

[Knife-28]

---Two days later---

While it had been chore adjusting to not only having so many people bunking under one roof, but just having to share a room with someone in general, but it quickly became normal, even in the few days since moving in. Dressed in his Mjölnir uniform (even if he more a member of Gungnir now, the uniform was comfy as shit) Jarrah moved into the common room moments after Juliet had done the same.

"Hello everyone, had a good couple of days I hope?"

"Well, all things considered they've been pretty uneventful." Jarrah said as he made his way over to one of the free chairs and sat down.

"I'm surprised there hasn't been more bathroom drama actually, considering it's what, 9 of us to the one bog?" Or rather, 8, Jarrah mentally corrected himself as he remembered Lenah being bedridden in the school's sickbay. Jarrah didn't know the full details of what happened, but he resolved to go see her at some point and say hi. It couldn't have been easy for the nature loving girl to be confined in the sterile sickbay, after all.

 

[Athol]

"Hello everyone, had a good couple of days I hope?"

Viktor looked forward as Juliet spoke, and let out an annoyed grunt. ?I?ve spent the past two days going over information, trying to figure out more about these assholes we?re supposed to deal with?take a wild guess how that is going.? Any further griping on his part was interrupted by the Aussie came in.

"I'm surprised there hasn't been more bathroom drama actually, considering it's what, 9 of us to the one bog?"

?Eh,? He chuckled. ?Compared to what I?ve had to endure at times, this is positively palatial.? Shitting into a frozen hole while you wait to ambush an NKVD patrol that MAY be coming? I?ll gladly never to THAT again?

 

[Outcast107]

William

While waiting for everyone else to join in, as it seem Tomas never like to chat to anyone but Jarrah. He saw Mirabelle walking in and taking a seat. Smiling as she ask her question, "Oh i'm fine." he said as he enjoy the comfyiness of his seat. "Just finish unpacking everything in my room." He said with a smile. William felt great today, he felt like he was moving ahead in his life and leaving his old one behind him.

Though before their conversation could continue, the others started to filed in. Most of them didn't say much besides Juliet. Hearing her question as he blush and reply "O-of course..." Still not making eye contact due to what happen two days ago. He still felt a bit ashamed of it.

"Well, they do sort of..have two bathrooms." Will said as he added. "Plus..I don't.think.." he looks around a bit. "Jack uses one at all..being a shadow.."

Tomas

Tomas lean against the wall as Mirabelle ask her question. Merely shrugging as he reply, "It was alright..." He didn't really have a eventful things going on besides packing and unpacking everything from one room to another. Leaving at that while Will told her a bit of his past two days.

After Will was done, Tomas saw the others filing in one after the other. Returning the nod back to Viktor to show some sighs of respect. While he didn't know Viktor too much, he did view him at least one of the better teammates here. Though the last student to show up so far Was Juliet and he groan a bit on the inside. Letting out a grunt when she ask her question.

He listen to Jarrah conversation with the Succubus and let out a small sigh to himself. He would have to make sure he told Jarrh to watch out for her. Tomas didn't trust her or like her one bit. Though his mind shifted a bit as they talk about bathrooms. 'I would also need to tell Jarrah to fucking spray after he done with the bathroom...fucking dragon senses.'

 

[Sithmorack]

Jack

Two days later.

Bored. That was the word Jack would use to describe the past two days. He had nothing to do while everyone other being was busy getting set up in their rooms. Jack had been spying. Simply watching beings on campus while he practiced his power and control in human form. Wasn't he supposed to be somewhere? Oh right the meeting. If he simply walked there, he'd probably be late. Luckily he wasn't some pathetic human. He walked into a dark corner before shifting into his natural form. He phased through walls and arrived at the meeting swiftly.

He entered the room. Finding a nice dark corner before shifting back into his human form. He sat quietly and listened to Jarrah say something about a bog? He shrugged as he began noting off the occupants of the room. It didn't really matter anyways. He closed his eyes as he reached out with his senses. Slowly checking around for any danger. Well really he did it just to keep his mind from boredom.

 

[Lunar Templar]

Seth

Seth just snickered at 'pure intentions', couldn't help it, it was funny to him. "Right, lets just go with that." Seth said as the pair entered the Gungnir barracks. "We'll work out where you'll be staying later. More important matters that need addressing first."

A few moments later Seth, with Sol in tow walked into his Lances room, and moved to the front of the group. "Before the meeting begins proper, this is Solomon Thron, he will be taking Lenah's spot on the team until she is cleared for duty by the medical staff, she is expected to fully recover though. Which leads me to point to, if your going to spar with each other, make sure you use the proper equipment so we don't run into personnel issues like this." Seth said he tosses a couple cards on the table. "Moving on to the tasks at hand. Originally, I was going to have you all go out for a 'team building' exercise, that however is no longer the case." Seth said motioning to the card on the left. "We have received reports of possible cultist activity in this area." The card first drawing a map then an old shinto temple that seemed to have been abandoned. "Viktor, Jack, Sierra, Jarrah, Sol. You will be tasked with the investigation. Your free to kill any cultists you come across of course, but if you find anything pertaining to a egotistical demon named Demigra, or the cults leader Mira, you are to bring that back, sooner we find them, the sooner we can end these cultist as a threat, for no anyway."

"Juliet, Mirabelle, Tomas, William." Seth said motioning to the other card, which also started with a map leading into the Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden "You four will be going to collect some one that will be an asset to Gungnir on the whole. They'd simple come here them selves but they are unable to do so with out aid. They also have information on the terrorists that attacked the school." Seth crossed his arms behind him. "So naturally, securing them is a priority."

"Any questions?"

 

[Athol]

Viktor turned his attention towards the door as Seth and a human he didn?t recognize entered.

"Before the meeting begins proper, this is Solomon Thron, he will be taking Lenah's spot on the team until she is cleared for duty by the medical staff, she is expected to fully recover though??

That?s good. He thought. Though he?d never really talked to Lenah, he liked Nymphs in general; they were one of the few species that had few preconceptions about vampires. Probably because we?ve never bothered hunting them?wait??Solomon Thron??why does that name sound familiar? While Seth talked, he studied the new arrivals face, and tested the air for his scent. After a moment it came back to him, a young hunter getting in his way?a brief altercation?If I hadn?t felt the need to ?play? with my dinner?. Staring straight at Solomon, he gave the hunter a predatory grin, before looking to the cards Seth had tossed onto the table.

"We have received reports of possible cultist activity in this area. Viktor, Jack, Sierra, Jarrah, Sol. You will be tasked with the investigation. Your free to kill any cultists you come across of course, but if you find anything pertaining to an egotistical demon named Demigra, or the cults leader Mira, you are to bring that back, sooner we find them, the sooner we can end these cultist as a threat, for no anyway."

He wasn?t too thrilled at the idea of having to keep an eye on Sierra but that aside, Seth?s divisions made sense. Snagging the map, he looked over it for a moment. ?Only got one real question; who?s commanding the each team??

 

[IFS]

Juliet mostly nodded and took in everyone's responses to her greeting, there wasn't a lot to comment on though it did give her some idea of what people's priorities were. Viktor was focused on the mission, more so than the others, and Will was still nervous which amused her. Of course before she could think up an appropriately teasing remark for him Seth entered with someone new.

"Any questions?"

Shame about Lenah, I was looking forward to getting to know her better. This Solomon though, he looks fun. Of course she had to focus on the mission for now, booooring. And he's not even on my team for this one, although Will is, not sure that's a smart move on their part.

"One question," she said "what can my team expect to run up against in recovering this asset?"

She had learned how to talk professionally from her job, though she hated the language. So dry and dull, sure planning for this sort of thing helped a great deal, and she wasn't adverse to her own plans, but it could really suck the fun out of things.

 

[figment of mind]

"Hello everyone, had a good couple of days I hope?"

"Eh...that...not really. It wasn't that bad, except...well, me and Lenah had plans to meet up...except she hasn't shown up. Her stuff is in our room so i assume that she's been in there but i haven't seen her around. In the meantime though, i was able to finish the Flexisteel..." after that, Mirabelle stopped talking for a bit, save for saying, "that's good...i think.", to Will's and Tomas's answers.

After they had finished, Seth came in with some man she didn't recognize. She thought at first that he was another higher up in Gungnir that they had to take orders, but then Seth began talking. "Before the meeting begins proper, this is Solomon Thron, he will be taking Lenah's spot on the team until she is cleared for duty by the medical staff, she is expected to fully recover though.

"What?!"

Which leads me to point to, if your going to spar with each other, make sure you use the proper equipment so we don't run into personnel issues like this."

Mirabelle promptly shut up then, realizing why Lenah had been hospitalized now. Still, internally she felt horrible for not realizing that Lenah may need medical attention, much less putting her in the hospital in the first place. She had warned Lenah that they shouldn't fight, that she may hurt her...she should have said no, ignored the request, anything else instead of folding like a leaf at her friends insistance. Still...at least her friend would be okay, though she would have to make sure that she didn't fight anyone else unless absolutely necessary.

Snapping out of her worried state she retured to the conversation as Seth began explaining why they were assembled there. "Juliet, Mirabelle, Tomas, William. You four will be going to collect some one that will be an asset to Gungnir on the whole. They'd simple come here them selves but they are unable to do so with out aid. They also have information on the terrorists that attacked the school. So naturally, securing them is a priority. Any questions?

"Um, i have one. Is there any specific way that you or the person themselves, want them brought back? Like to protect some sort of cover or something similar. Or are we free to get them here in the way we deem best?"

 

[Knife-28]

"Well, they do sort of..have two bathrooms. Plus..I don't.think.. Jack uses one at all..being a shadow.."

"Well, it's still a shocking bathroom to person ratio." Jarrah said after giving a chuckle to Viktor's own comment. Before the diminutive boy could respond, Seth walked in with with what Jarrah assumed was another student.

"Before the meeting begins proper, this is Solomon Thorn, he will be taking Lenah's spot on the team until she is cleared for duty by the medical staff, she is expected to fully recover though."

It was good to hear Lenah would be ok, and immediately Jarrah's mind went to work wondering what Solomon's 'powers' were. Seth's comment about sparing together also came as something of a no brainer to Jarrah.

"We have received reports of possible cultist activity in this area. Viktor, Jack, Sierra, Jarrah, Sol. You will be tasked with the investigation. You're free to kill any cultists you come across of course, but if you find anything pertaining to a egotistical demon named Demigra, or the cults leader Mira, you are to bring that back, sooner we find them, the sooner we can end these cultist as a threat, for now anyway."

Jarrah shifted slightly in his seat as Seth mentioned killing the cultists. Beating a demon to death in self defence was one thing, and there was no doubting the cultists were dangerous, but Jarrah didn't know that, even if push came to shove, he could kill one in cold blood.

"Only got one real question; who's commanding the each team?" Viktor's question was one that was also on Jarrah's mind, though he doubted it would end up being anyone other than the vampire would end up commanding their team. Unless this Solomon bloke was some sort of master tactician, Viktor seemed to be the only one with any experience in this field.

As for the other team, if Juliet's comment was any indication, she seemed to be taking charge there, and Jarrah wondered how well that would go over with the rest of the team.
