Echo nervously followed behind Ness.
Tao took the moment of confusion to grab at Cynane's chest.

Makoto staggered as the drop pod landed. "What the fu?" She saw Tao grope Cynane out of the corner of her eye. "Case in point..."
While there might have been enough for Tao to grab had Cynane been wearing normal clothing, Tao's paws slipped off the scales covering her chest almost immediately. The armour, although dry was more slippery than fish scales.
"NOPE!" Cynane yelped, catching her and holding her at arms length as Makoto had done. "Nice try kitten, you almost had it, but this isn't the time." She struggled to her feet, stil holding Tao at arms length. Once she was standing she glanced at Makoto- and then burst out laughing.

The door to the drop pod was kicked once, twice, and on the third, it was kicked open, falling to the ground. A man with a shaved head, wearing a black hoodie with strange dreadlocks attached to the hood, came crawling out, switching between a stream of obscenities and praises to a forgiving god. From within came a sound of plates rattling, and a musk pervaded from the innards of the pod.

Lyra arrived at the outer limits of the city to see the pods landing zone, and ran towards it, keeping an eye out for the police.

Savranth looked at the new arrivals. "Now, what?"

"That is correct. Solaris is situated in the Sea South of here. And yes, there are ways to communicate back to the Capital. Do you seek to get permission to speak to Lucia?" The guard asked.

"In theory, no. But then again, if you were trying to prevent arising my suspicions you would inform me of your faux plans to ease them. A foolish tactic would be to try to silence me, but being a general, you wouldn't be able to do that. I'd be missed before you could blink. But your story doesn't add up. When I said that no one does business between ether nation, that's because it would be utter suicide to try. They'd never be trusted by either government. On top of having trouble with the currency. So, I ask again. What do you want?" Lazarus asked.

Jona uttered a low growl and whirled his bonesword in a circle. He handled the weapon like it weighed nothing, even though it looked big and bulky.
"It was... it was kind of funny!" Cynane exclaimed, catching her breath. "If some asshole in a gathering hall did that I'd have snapped his arm off. Now with this thing, I could punt her from here into the sea... She looked at Tao who was looking miserable at being foiled. But she's kind of cute, isnt she?" She put Tao down and stepped back, looking at the man coming out of the drop pod.
"But yeah, this is kind of way more important. Damn... I thought I'd seen anything, and then a machine like that drops out of the heavens!"

The bald man looked up at Ness, and he was about to respond when he heard the sirens. "Oh SHIT! Xyleena, lets go, its the coppers! Oh hell, I can't get arrested after showing up for her, no no no no, come one XYLEENA, WE ARE NOT GETTING OUR DAMN NAILS DONE, LETS GO!" there were a series of hisses from the pod, sounding somewhat truculent. The cloying scent became thicker, and would seriously bother anyone with a well tuned nose, proving distracting and provoking anger.
Jona became more agitated at the man's bellows, and at the scent emerging from the drop pod. He uttered another low growl and crouched low, blade held at the ready.
"Very well then. Thank you very much. And I will... try and see about getting the artifact back." He shrugged, and left to the entrance of the building.
"Now to find the government office." He said to himself. He made sure that Steiner and company were following behind. He made his way over to the building, trying not to lose himself among the crowds of people. He knocked on the entrance and rang the doorbell.

"Well then maybe you should stick to your original form, instead of coping other" Blair said to the Shapeshifter as she ran along. When Blair got to the crash site, she approached slowly but her cat sense kicked in and she backed off, hissing slightly.
"Yeas, she is kinda cute. The coat makes her look like a plushy. But this isn't the time for that. we gotta investigate that crash!" Makoto ran to the crash site.
OoC: @Berk The crash wasn't nearby, so let's just time-skip there.
Makoto stopped as she got near, holding her nose. "Oh god, what is THAT?!"
OoC: @FPS: This smell, is it some kinda mind-affecting chemical or does it just stink really bad?

Ness raised an eyebrow at the man's jumpiness then started to note the smell and sounds coming from the pod. Not wanting to be anywhere close to 'Xyleena', she took a few steps back, holding her nose and looking a little green in the face. As much as her mind told her to go with Arron's suggestion, she shook her head as she heard it. I need to at least see what this thing is...
