[Event Log] Mission #202 - Tegucigalpa

[soul_mods]

Characters: OPEN to those who signed up for the mission here, assigned to Tegucigalpa
Location: Tegucigalpa, Honduras
Rating: Varies
Time: May 29th
Description: It's an evacuation! Get people out of there and keep the kishin eggs off of them!



The resort city of Tegus isn't doing so well. You can see the relief in the eyes of the local police when they see help has arrived, help that can actually deal with the strange monsters raising hell in the streets.

But nobody can rest easy yet. Even in a city of lovely as this, the kishin eggs - much less the witches - see no need to take care of the historical buildings and tourist spots, choosing instead to mark the old buildings with their claws and magic when they aren't hunting down and torturing fleeing, terrified civilians.

Help get them out of there and on their way to the safe zone- there are buses, vans and police cars under the heaviest guard waiting! When you see a witch, keep your head low and hope she didn't see you... unless you think you've got the bite to back up your bark!

[Lily grimaced as the bugs split open, their insides oozing out in a disgusting manner even as legs and antennae still twitched. She flicked her feet, trying to get off the muck that had splashed and landed on the toes of her shoes. The Keds would have to go into the wash later.]

I don't know. I reckon we should just start pulling people out from under tables and hoping we find them. And that folks are more cooperative about evacuating now. [Hopefully, they wouldn't be interrupted again before they managed to clear the marketplace!]

[And so Lily looked under tables and behind boxes of fruit, managing to coax a few who had been hiding out.]

[lezard_valeth]

Very well.

[He sought to alleviate her burden, and pulled away. With a flash of light he transformed back as the insects slowly perished. Keeping the girl within his sights, he awaited their demise as he went about coaxing people from hiding.]

Damned shame. To think they wouldn't see about keeping their children in arm's reach...!

[vintage_magic]

Let's hope it's just carelessness brought on by the Madness. [And that those bugs hadn't already eaten the girl's parents...]

[By the time the insects vanished, leaving those glowing red spheres, they had managed to round up about a dozen civilians. Checking under another table, Lily found a man cowering there who bore a resemblance to the little girl.]

I think I've found her father but I reckon we'll have to drag him out.

[lezard_valeth]

Though hope can only stretch us so far, the Madness sees fit to throw a wrench in the gears.

[Ah, did they find the father? He gave the little girl a gentle nudge to bring her over, who'd seen fit to grabbing hold of his cloak and trying to hide in it.]

[But as he crouched down, he pointed to the cowering man and turned to the child, speaking quietly. He'd studied up on a few languages in his time here thus far. Asking the man if the child was his could be dangerous... but a child knew their family. Instead he addressed the girl in what Spanish he knew if this man was a member of her family or someone she knew, carefully pulling the cloak down from her eyes so that she may see.]

[The little girl nodded and abandoned Lezard's cloak, running over to tug on the man's sleeve. Seeming to finally snap out of his stupor and remember his responsibilities, he gathered her in his arms and came out from under the table.]

[Now that that was taken care of, Lily picked up the souls left by the the insects. She didn't know what would happen if a curious child tried to take a bite but it seemed best not to find out!]

[As she shoved them towards Lezard...] Let's hurry and check the rest of the market.

[There were still those folks where they fought the first couple of demons and another soul to collect.]
