Thread: The Fate of the world is in our hands (Max and I)

Ugh. So now he was pulling the human card after they killed his demon body guards? Evelyn hated that, but it was to be expected from weak cowards like him. She placed her main gun back in it's holster and with a pained expression, she sheathed her sword with her bad arm. That was stupid, though she hadn't expect Lucia to recover so quickly. It was not her first time fighting with a hybrid, but...well Lucia wasn't trained like the ones she had fought with. For a moment, Evelynn forgot that and allowed her to take on an enemy without her help. If something had really happened to Lucia, she'd feel responsible for her. Because of how incompatible her human cells were, there was a chance that Lucia might have been 'defective' and weaker as opposed to the others. Though that didn't seem to be the case. Ugh! What a chicken shit. Lucia growled as she picked up her sword from the ground and noticed that her entire arm was covered in demon blood. She made a face and then strapped the sword to her back once more as Henri began to further interrogate this man. Both Evelynn and Lucia could hear the sounds of gun fire and fighting. More demons were in the city...both of them wanted to fight, too. Though Evelynn just stared at her, and Lucia knew that meant for her to stay. As much as Evelynn wanted to help, she had a feeling this gun was important. Too important for her to risk it falling into the wrong hands, if she should fall. They needed more intelligence to go about fighting the demons the right way. She glared at the man as he asked them to protect him. Though Henri rightfully knocked him out with the hilt of one of his daggers. Ugh, thank you. He was getting annoying, and I'm already annoyed that we aren't out there, helping those poor people! Lucia growled just as Henri came up to them. Evelynn quietly listened to his words before nodding. The situation had changed, and now it was even more complicated. Whatever this weapon was...it attracted danger. Suddenly, there was silence. The fight seemed to be over. However, the silence was followed up with the roar of the orcs. Lucia growled, knowing all to well what this meant. Evelynn... She began through gritted teeth. Once again, the ex soldier just shook her head. They needed to run, not charge in blindly. She walked towards Henri as he leaned over the portly, sweaty, passed out man. Lucia just followed though it was clear she was extremely angry. As Henri spoke to her in french, she took the vial from him and unplugged it, downing the contents. Now the throbbing pain in her arm had stopped...and the two girls followed Henri, keeping up with him easily. Crawling through the sewers didn't exactly sound fun, but then again none of this was. This was no longer a game, but the reality of what the surface humans had to go through. Ugh! I want to go back and fight! Lucia shouted as they finally got to a manhole to enter through. Listen to Henri. We were hired by him and will do whatever he thinks is best. I know you don't like it, Lucia. But those were his men. Evelynn said as she jumped down first. Ugh...this smelled worse than the breath of that orc she fought. It was dark, though her artificial eye could see somewhat better than her human one. Gah! My nose! Lucia screamed as soon as she slipped into the sewer. I can't..this is disgusting, I..I'm gonna throw up! She whined as Henri joined them. Evelynn turned to the woman and sighed. Her sense of smell was apparently extremely sensitive. Unfortunately she'd have to just breathe through her mouth. Ugh...I can see fine....but it's just...I don't feel so good. Lucia, I know it's hard but you have to just grit your teeth and bare it. I can only mostly see the heat signatures and faint outlines here and there, even with my artificial eye. So you have to lead us if Henri can't. Evelynn lectured. Just breathe through your mouth. Easy for you to say, you damn bio-freak! I don't wanna open my mouth down here and breathe this putrid air! Ugh... Lucia's eyes began to wander and she slowly looked around. Graffiti. She notated when she saw the symbol of Henri's guild.
