[OPEN] Mission 156
Characters: Open to participants who signed up here.
Location: Lake Tahoe, CA
Rating: Various.
Time: March 27th, late morning.
Description: The second of the three Madness emitters outside Death City is the target for this mission. Bundle up, everyone -- it's gonna be a cold one.
The mission begins late in the morning, to allow the mission-goers as much sunlight as possible in the warmest part of the day. Not that it'll help much… Temperatures are well below freezing already -- unnatural even for early Spring in the mountains -- and a howling snowstorm threatens to blot out the sun, beginning up the mountain where the slope just begins to rise sharply.
The slopes themselves are fairly barren: a windswept-looking tree here, a cabin that may have once belonged to the snow patrol there, maybe a Madness-crazed bear or mountain lion. Those braving the storm are lucky enough to see five feet in front of their face in these conditions!
Those brave few who manage to make it to the top (enduring falling temperatures and defeating the corrupted fauna and hulking kishin yeti along the way) may come across their goal at the very summit of the half-mile-high mountain: the Madness emitter itself, in the eye of the storm… And one last obstacle: the Witch guarding it.
OOC NOTES.

The Kishin clearly didn't know what to do, with the shinobi moving in for the kill so quickly, torn between attacking back and fleeing. It tried to do both at once, claw frantically while backing up, catching them both a little more with its claws as the blade came down.
For a moment, as the blade sank into the Kishin's body, Gai felt very satisfied. But it wasn't entirely done yet. In its death it flailed, drawing its claws completely down the shaft of the kusarigama. The damage felt distant, but even then Gai could tell it wasn't good. The Kishin slumped, unable to fight any more, and Gai was left with the sinking realization that they couldn't continue any further. He might not actually be losing blood in this form, but he'd still weaken, and it would be worse when he shifted back.]
I...
[It was hard to apologize for failing, for not being tough enough.]
We need to fall back, my Eternal Rival.
[There was regret in his mental voice.]
I am sorry.
no subject
No, it's fine.
[He looked down at the creature and then nudged it with his shoe. It remained where it was, dead. At least they took out two. Next time they would do more. But he wasn't going to risk Gai's well-being just to press onward.]
Do you want to stay in this form until we reach a medic? [Gai would be easier to carry this way, and his condition might not worsen as quickly, but practicality aside, Kakashi would let him make this decision. Even if it meant carrying Gai back the old-fashioned way. As he started the slow trek back down the way they came, he ran his fingers over the flat part of the blade and then down the shaft, feeling the splinters and nicks and other wounds Gai's weapon form had taken. How bad was it?]
no subject
I should. Stay, I mean. It will be better for you, easier, and I will not be making a trail.
[There wasn't blood dripping, after all, as long as he was a kusarigama. Kakashi's hands feel soothing, as if maybe their movements could push away the pain.]
Can you keep doing that? With your fingers? I know it does not actually help, but it feels like it does.
no subject
[Kakashi paused as Gai voiced the request, then he continued the action. It was almost soothing to Kakashi as well, even though he knew it didn't do anything for Gai...it was a little contact, a reminder (albeit a guilt-filled one), like hearing his comrade's breathing and feeling his heartbeat.]
Promise me that you'll stay with the medic to get bandaged up. I won't force you to stay overnight, but I'd prefer a real medic [as opposed to what limited skills Kakashi had] look at your wounds.
