A mysterious figure entered an abandoned hotel in Lucrain. As he walked, dust stirred all around him, showing just how old this place was. The Flori Hotel use to be the most popular hotel in Lucrain, but that quickly changed when the town was overrun by Mavericks. Everything was still in its place, but the only customers the hotel received was dust.
The man sat in one of the old lobby chairs, waiting for his bounty hunter to show up.

Vasedir stood outside the old hotel he was told to meet his employer at. Vasedir's face had a slight frown as he opened the doors to the lobby, disturbing a lot of dust that had settled there. Vasedir walked up to his client, standing still only three feet from him. "I am Model V001, employed for services to be announced at this location."

The man grinned and stood from his seat. His black pin-striped suit and matching hat made him look like a powerful man. Walking up to the reploid, the man held out his hand, keeping his eyes covered. A cigarette could be seen in his mouth as he began to talk in his low, mafia-type voice.
"Ah, welcome sir. The name's Hacovich Jr."
He walked back over to his seat and sat down. there was a small table between him and another chair, which he offered to Model V001. He crossed his legs and put his hands together, giving him a no-nonsense look. Taking the cigarette out of his mouth, Hacovich began telling his "employee" what he wanted.
"I am the weapons dealer around here, providing weapons to whoever needs 'em. Business here in Lucrain has been rather slow as of late, and I got a pretty good idea why. A squad of humans callin themselves 'Neo Arcadians' are takin out some of my best customers. I needs you to 'fix the problem,' if you catch my drift."
He smiled, placing the cigarette back in his mouth. He wouldn't let his hunter see his eyes, for one reason or another...

Vasedir listened silently till he was offered a chair. Vasedir sat down, his arms crossed low near the waist in his trench coat. Vasedir kept his head low, concealing his own eyes like his employer till he figured all was said and done. Vasedir looked up, openeing his red eyes to meet his patron. "Mission: eliminate threat to weapons dealer. Employer: Hacovich Jr." Vasedir stopped a moment and slammed his Buster pistol on the table, keeping in his hand. "I require the location of said Neo Arcadians or other subjects interfering with trade." Vasedir waited a moment then added more. "I also require the information as to how much I am being payed in advance."

Hacovich raised his head, a big grin plastered on his face. He was quite satisfied with his hunter, making it evident by making eye contact with him. A scar was over his own right eye and was a blue-ish color while his left eyes was a normal brown. "Please, call me Junior," he said, exhaling some smoke. He put both of his legs on the ground and took the cigarette out of his mouth.
"You can't miss 'em. Their temporary headquarters is at the old harbor. they're all dressed in blue uniforms, and I think they brought a couple of reploids along with 'em."
Junior coughed, obviously sickened by the idea of humans and reploids working together for 'a greater good.' He continued speaking with a slightly angry tone of voice.
I'll pay ya 2,000z to get rid of those good-for-nothin goodies. Meet me back here to collect your reward."

Vasedir stood with hsi employer, holstering his buster pistol. "Zenny is adequate. Location confirmed, Name registration: Junior." Vasedir turned and was halfway out the door before he turned back to Junior. "Might I tell you this, I work for whoever pays the most, should they offer me somethng bigger I might betray you. Percentage chance of this is only 13%, just as a precaution to you." Vasedir thought a moment longer before adding in one last comment before walking out the door. "If I remain loyal I will return with the head of one of the reploids."

Junior just laughed, obviously pleased by the reploid. He himself didn't like reploids, but he sure did like their money. His main customers were the Mavericks that had taken over this town, so he always had customers. He never revealed that he himself was a human, otherwise he would be dead by now. After Model V001 finished his mission, Junior could continue to gain profits from these 'scumbags'" He sat, confident that Model V001 would take out his problem that day. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Meanwhile, the Neo Arcadian squad had just reported back to their temporary headquarters at the harbor for their 3:00 report. There were about 20 human soldiers in Neo Arcadian Uniform (image coming soon) and 10 reploids that made up the squad. Most of the Mavericks had been taken care of, so not many came back with a report of Mavericks. They lined up, waiting for their superior officers to evaluate their efforts. The 2 officers came out of a tent, obviously just out from a discussion. One was a human with short but messy blonde hair and blue eyes, standing at about 5' 8''. His smile gave him the appearance that he thought he was superior to everyone else, including his co-op partner. The other was a massive red reploid that stood at about 8 feet with a massive sword on his back. The areas where there was no armor were black, all except for his serious face which was normal skin color. His helmet was more like a black shower cap with a giant red "V" on the front. The human looked around the ranks, glaring everyone down but continuing to have that superior smile on his face. Keeping his hands behind him, he addressed his soldiers. "Status report! Report in!" Immediately, the soldiers began giving their reports, most of them saying "No Mavericks spotted." As the end of the line approached, one of the soldiers gave a report that made the commanding officer's smile grow. "One Maverick spotted. Captured and detained Maverick for further report." The senior officer beckoned the soldier to come to the front with his capture, needing the assistance of 2 reploids to bring it forward. The Maverick had his hands bound behind his back, and his face showed immense anger at the human who captured him. The superior officer ordered his soldiers to bring the Maverick to his knees. The soldiers obeyed, backing away from the Maverick as soon they followed orders. They knew exactly what their commanding officer was going to do and they didn't want to be close by when he did. The human's reploid partner gave his thoughts before allowing him to continue with his interrogation. "Jason, go easy on this one. Every other Maverick that we've captured hasn't said a thing. We need to stop hunting down Mavericks and start getting this place up and running again" Jason laughed and glared at the reploid. "Oh, come on Vein! I know this Maverick scum knows something, and I'm going to take him out whether you like it or not." He turned back the Maverick who just started at him, preparing for his time to strike. Jason smiled, reaching for one of his two trademark daggers. "Well, Maverick." He began to circle the reploid, like an eagle circling its prey. "Where are the other Mavericks hiding?" The Maverick didn't respond. He only intensified his glare at the human. Jason sighed, and said "Well if you want to play it that way..." In with swift motion, he brought out his dagger and dug it into the reploid's left shoulder. The Maverick cried out, ready to tear the human to pieces. The anger in Jason's voice made itself known as he began to yell "Now tell me where the Mavericks are!" The reploid chuckled a little and responded "Mavericks? There's hardly any of 'em left. You've already destroyed most of 'em, so why continue to stay here?" Jason pulled out his second dagger and dug it into the reploid's right shoulder. Continuing to grip both blades, Jason kneeled down and stared at the reploid. "Fine. I'm done with you then." Taking both blades out, Jason spun around into a standing position away from the Maverick, slicing with his daggers as he rose. The reploid's head fell off, and Jason ordered someone to dispose of the body. The fury he had toward the Maverick seemed to be directed more at him for being a reploid rather than being a Maverick. He returned to his tent with Vein following behind.

Vasedir was swift to enter the old harbor, making sure he was not seen. Vasedir looked about an old crate he was hiding behind and saw two humans coming his way. "Targets acquired, activating warp function." The guards heard him and rushed to Vasedir's spot only to find him gone. "Assassination complete." Vasedir appeared behind the humans and silenced them with two swipes of his energy dagger.
Vasedir carefully laid the corpses down on the side of the crate that was hidden and looked about. Only a big tent stood out among the rest, one with a "V" on it. "Location confirmed, will restrain from taking action against main location." Vasedir never talked to anyone on missions if he could help it, it was mostly reminder data to himself. Vasedir's voice was alway robotic sounding as when he left the lab he did not attempt to get another one. "Notification, total of thirty gaurds at location, two of higher rank." Vasedir stood straight and walked into the open, holding his arms out as if in welcome, showing his armor under his tranch coat. "Hello native arcadians, I welcome thee to my domain."

OOC: I wish there were more people to RP in this thread...I really like this idea. _________________________________________________________________________________________ Several Arcadian soldiers walked up to the new reploid. They had only been at the harbor for 3 days, but they didn't know if anyone else had called this place their own. Obviously someone did. The soldiers didn't act very cautious. They were new in the Neo Arcadian Army, and this reploid seemed friendly enough, so their guard was down. Each of them held a rifle form of the Speed Chain buster, holding them either in their hands or keeping them on their backs. Several of them just sort of stared at him, waiting to see what else he would do. Jason and Vein remained in their tent, unaware of what was going on outside.

(OOC: very good idea, maybe this could be used later for more people)
Vasedir gave a cold stare to those near him and laughed. His voice sounded robotic so the laugh most likely creeped out a few of the soldiers. "I have been hired by a certain human. My domain is the world. Farewell denizens of ignorance." Vasedir faded out of existence before the nearby troops and appeared in front of a farther one, his buster to the man's head. "Task: elimination." Vasedir grabbed the man by his collar and looked at the others. "To be accurate, two of your men shot at me for no reason, therefore I activate self defense." Vasedir had lowered his buster by now, making sure the soldier understood he didn't intend to kill him just yet.

OOC: We could always wait...that or continue on and try to recruit some more members. Its your call whether or not we wait for more people. _________________________________________________________________________________________
Most of the soldiers panicked. None of them were prepared for combat like this, all except a few of the reploids who pointed their Speed Chains at the intruder. They approached slowly, each of them ready to shoot if attacked. One of the human soldiers ran back to the tent in hopes to warn his superior officers. He ran inside, panting rather hard.
"Sirs! We've got an intruder!"
Jason, who was seated at one of the tables talking to Vein, got up and stormed out. As he did, he grabbed the buster from the soldier's hands, cursing him under his breath for being such a wimp. He exited the tent, aimed at his opponent, and shot a full round (6 shots) at the intruder. He didn't care if his own reploid allies were in the way. They were all trash to him.
"Time to die, Maverick!"

Vasedir heard the men coming, their guns readying for attack. his face was stone as he faded away from his victim to the cover behind another set of nearby crates. "Leader targets established, set battle routine caculated." Vasedir's audio receptors went in and out on different frequencies before he found the right one. From his cover Vasedir activated his commlink that had been set to the same frequency as the speaker around the harbor. "Attention all soldier and reploids in the area. I am Model V001 and none of you will leave here alive."

Vein heard the announcement and the gunfire, concerned about what was going on outside. He walked out of the tent, ducking so he wouldn't hit himself on the entrance. He looked around, seeing several soldiers in a panic and Jason with a Speed Chain in his hands. "It looks like a Maverick" he said in his rather gruff voice. "Do you want to take him out, Jason, or should I?"
"Leave that scum to me!" Jason blurted. His short temper didn't help his anger towards reploids, walking up to the reploid soldiers and barking out orders. "You three! Circle around that crate and open fire! The rest of you, fire towards the opposite end of the crates!"
At his command, 3 reploids circled around the left of the crates, planning on attacking V001's right side. The other 7 reploids began firing at the right-most of the crates. Jason smirked, confident that his plan was going to work. For not liking reploids, it was ironic that it was them that he ordered to attack, since they were the only competent ones.

Vasedir was behind the right most crates, protected slightly by their metal frames. Vasedir turned off the link for a moment and chuckled to himself. "It seems this man hates reploids, all the better." Vasedir turned on his commlink and faded away to the back of the building the crates were positioned against, making a second announcement. "This is foolish sir, I will merely fade in and out of existence. You cannot kill a ghost." Vasedir drew his buster with his free hand. "I hold a uniqueness about me that cannot be explained."

Despite the fact that reploids were more logical than humans, they were quite spooked when they went around the crates to find no one there. The only explanation was that he went around the building, with which they proceeded to do. They were now out of site from Jason and the camp, searching everywhere for their prey.
Jason, unfazed by V001's attempt of fearing him, continued blurting out orders. Over the reploid's gunfire could be heard "What are you all shooting at?! Hes circled around the building! Get your sorry cans over there and take out that Maverick!"
As the group ran off to join the 3 other reploids, Jason grabbed one of them. "You stay with me, got that?" he said, still quite angry at the situation. "We're going to circle around the other end of the building and cut him off. Stay close and don't screw up, or you'll be my next target."
As Jason was trying to handle things, Vein just watched from a distance and chuckled at him. _________________________________________________________________________________________
OOC: Position is going to be very important at this point, so we need to make sure we're on the same page as far as placement goes.
