Re: Execution(RP)
Zorlo's sword vanished as he stretched out his fingers and watched the sword break into data and bits of magic. He smiled at Lucia before placing a hand on her head and smiling. "Thank you," he stated with a soft pat on her head as he looked at Morgan. "I don't care what you want me to call you, but your behavior, as with the pink-haired ones, are both fitting of your powers. I'm just indifferent to you both," the man stated as he crossed his arms with a chuckle, even though it was slight.
"So our target is a shape-shifter... silver mayhap would work?" the man asked as he looked at his wrists. "I have no silver swords, so I"ll need to sort out what else works," the man stated as he looked into the box of food and sat down to eat some. "Lady Lucia, you need not worry about me. I shall be fine," the man stated with a sigh as he laid back in the chair. "You must keep your own strength up though."

Re: Execution(RP)
Lucia didn't respond in voice, simply nodding towards Zorlo. She did the same as she nodded towards the others to acknowledge their responses. She looked at the woman that was the client. She examined her, in a sense keeping tabs on what was going on. "It does not state the crime the target committed." She spoke, as if expecting that to be part of her orders.

Re: Execution(RP)
"She has a point" said Haruka, "why does this guy need to be executed?" she added, Pion then stood there for a moment, more whirring and clicking came from her when a "ding" sound happened, "He has abandoned his mission", "what mission?", "Memory files are corrupted, it is an important mission, that is all I can recall", Haruka sighed, "Well, she already paid the downpayment for this assignment" said Brian, "And the other assignments are on hiatus due to circumstances surrounding yesterdays fiasco" he added, Haruka knew this was today's only mission, a part of her wants to ignore the robotic cat girl, but another part of her says that lazing around isn't a good thing either, "Now my policy is to never turn away a client" said Brian, "But it's up to you guys if you wanna take this assignment, I can just assign the other Executioners to do it" he added.
Re: Execution(RP)
Morgan held his tongue when the cat girl walked in, although he did admire her, and normally would have hit on her right then and there, but he didn't want to ruin the probably nonexistent chance that Sariabell would agree just yet. And just when he was starting to be interesting. Guess he took some of the kid's boring unto himself. He opened his mouth to say something about how crimes didn't matter, but it was only the second really emotional reaction she had displayed, and he didn't want to squelch that. This crew was boring enough already. Morgan shrugged at Brian's question about taking the job and just continued the long process of sanding the stick into a sword; didn't sound like the guy was a magician so he didn't really have an opinion on the matter.
Re: Execution(RP)
By the time the group had started asking why, Zorlo had already stepped out again and slammed the door behind him. This was just the kind of chaos he needed to clear his mind. Enough swords to wield against this target... he would find one that worked. After all, if his enemy needed to die, this was good enough. Reasons were something that the living cared about... the dead, they simply followed orders.
As far as Zorlo cared now, he was amongst the dead. Without any anchor to this world, he would become like the Wire... and then he would follow them to the grave.

Re: Execution(RP)
"I am not equipped to execute a target without knowing a crime they have committed." Lucia spoke, her eyes remaining the same. If they could potentially falsify a crime, it would be enough for her to be able to attack the target until it was confirmed. "I decline this mission." She bowed lightly, walking out of the office with no hostility. She did not hear Zorlo say no to the mission, so she did not speak to him unless he was trying to address her. She would focus on preparing for the next properly detailed client.

Re: Execution(RP)
"Boss, I'm declining this assignment as well" said Haruka, Vientiane however objected, "If Haru's not helping, then I'll take her place!" said the Executioner's assistant, "V, what do you think you're doing?", "Helping out a client, I know how to use a beam Katana you know!", "A beam Katana, it's a toy V", "No it's not!", "Yes it is", "Not it's-", "Enough, the both of you!" said Brian raising his voice, the two stopped bickering, "Vientiane is an employee of this office as well, she can take your place" said Brian, Haruka sighed and said, "Fine, do whatever you want" , However, as soon as Haruka turned on the Television, she saw this:
"Boss, you still got that mission on Pearlharbor?" asked Haruka, "Yes I do" he said as he handed out the files on the hit on Trevor Pearlharbor:
"Boss, you still got that mission on Pearlharbor?" asked Haruka, "Yes I do" he said as he handed out the files on the hit on Trevor Pearlharbor:
Vientiane then left the office with Pion to head for the junkyard.Target:
Name: Trevor Pearlharbor
Age: 28
Gender: Male
Abilities: A skilled cartoonist, it is believed he controls the actions of the "Handsome men"
Bio: At first he simply drew for comics and cartoons of the Handsome Men, but lately, the Handsome Men's actions were assassinations of Democratic party leaders, actions which shockingly came to life as they were carried out by the Handsome Men in real life.
Client:
Name: Christopher Mills
Age: 49
Gender: Male
Bio: An agent of the government, he contracts the services of the Smith Execution Agency due to the U.S having no authority to move on Trevor, due to Trevor moving into the Dominican Republic to escape.
Re: Execution(RP)
Zorlo sat outside the door and stared at V and Pion as he clenched a sheathed sword in his hand. "Just you, huh? I guess its just us, m'dear," Zorlo stated blankly as he stood up and smiled slightly. "Let us be quick about this. I think... I just need something quick to get my spirit going," the man stated somberly as he started to walk with the two women, mostly following them, towards the junkyard.
Re: Execution(RP)
"They seem emotionally vulnerable. You want me to go make sure they don't get turned nor caught off guard when kitten inevitably tries to kill them?" Morgan asked Brian. He scarfed down the sandwich, either way it seemed he was about to leave and he didn't want to fight on a completely empty stomach. "Big sis here's probably best suited for dealing with large numbers anyways, the more enemies the more power she can take after all. If there's a big target miss samurai should be able to deal and unlike me the kid seems to have developed a sense of morals."

Re: Execution(RP)
"It's up to you" said Brian, he then turned to Haruka, "alright, I'll set up a meeting in the Celtic Building, just meet Mills there, he'll provide your transportation to the Dominican Republic" said Brian as Haruka nodded and left the room.
"Here we are" said Vientiane, the three of them were at the entrance of the Junkyard, they entered when the ground suddenly began to shake, "What's going on?!" asked V, in a few moments, a bulldozer smashed past a hill of junk, "HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Foolish human! For trespassing on my domain! I sentence you to death!" said the figure on the Bulldozer, V then activated her Beam Katana while Pion assumed a fighting pose...
"Here we are Ma'am, the Celtic Building" said the cab driver as Haruka paid him and exited, the Celtic Building was a fancy apartment building for rich people, Haruka entered the building, to her surprise, there was nobody in it, she looked around when she heard a scream, she then saw a woman crawling on the ground trying to evade something, that something was a Wire, Haruka turned her left arm into a gun and opened fire on the Wire before it could kill the woman, the woman saw Haruka and said "Thank you" and proceeded to run towards the entrance, Haruka walked past her, she knew that where there's one Wire, there's bound to be more, she had to find Mills, and fast.

Morgan nodded and turned to Sariabell, "Don't worry, I'll be sure to look after your dear sister better than if she was my own until you get back. Be careful around HK, I don't think she's all there right now, I'd hate my first impression with my future father in law to be me telling him you died." He stood up and slid the bone into a pocket. "And keep an eye on the kid, keep that little bud of a personality alive." Morgan exited the room and mussed Lucia's hair, "Good job standing your ground. Give me a call when uou're done and bring me back a souvenir from the Dominican Republic, yeah?" He popped a veggie into his mouth as he followed then others to the junkyard. As he got close he cast a blandness spell and hopped up onto a stack of scrap to watch. He munched on the veggies and sanded his weapon; Morgan would step in if he thought it necessary or if Pion attacked the others, but until then he was plan B.
Re: Execution(RP)
"How quaint," Zorlo mused as he stepped forwards and leapt into the air. Six swords rained into the machine's treads and began to lock up its movement. "If this is the most creative solution you have... then this will be over in minutes," Zorlo stated as he landed on the roof of the machine and readied another sword. With a quick spin of the blade in his hand, he drove the sword through the roof, intentionally missing his target inside. "Now then, come out so I can kill you at least somewhat cleanly."

Re: Execution(RP)
Lucia listened to the broadcast, her mind going back to a place she never really quite understood. She continued past the crowd seeming glued to the report. Death like this wasn't always so dramatic. Her mentor had told her that. He used to do things that no one ever reported. Things that would only be known by people of certain status. Now every lunatic and target had this sort of target painted on them. Of course, she didn't quite seem to care about another massacre at this point.
'There's no reason to kill a person on a whim. An executioner kills only for a reason provided by the client. Even if there was an important person involved, what would be the point?' She had never truly had someone important to her. She did always what she was told. The only thing that seemed instilled that seemed even slightly like morality was the need to have a reason. Perhaps one to report later. 'I can only kill people, as long as who commands me gives me a crime.'
She stopped near her apartment building, staring at the lunch. She shouldn't be so set on treating them so much like a comrade. Besides, if they wanted to kill that person without needing a crime, they weren't a comrade, were they? She dropped it to the ground pushing on it lightly with her foot. "I only punish those who have committed a crime." She spoke, opening the door and walking up the stairs.

Re: Execution(RP)
Haruka fought her way past multiple Wire's, as she made her way up, she heard gunshots, she proceeded to the location where the gunshots were coming from and found her man, there he was, wearing a suit with a beard, and covered in blood, probably from the Wire's, "Christopher Mills I presume?" asked Haruka, the man turned to her and said, "Aye, you're the Executioner?" he replied, "Yes", "First things first, let's get to the roof, I can call for a helicopter there", with that, Haruka and Mills were headed for the roof.
"Damn" said Oyage as he got off the Bulldozer, "You may have destroyed my killdozer, but I still have a trick up my sleeve!" with that, he transformed into a Giant cat, "Oyage! Stop this at once!" said Pion, "Silence! My name isn't Oyage! It's Otaro!" replied the giant cat, "This is getting kinda weird" said V, "He doesn't ooze dark matter" she added, "What is dark matter?" asked Pion, "What the?! You mean to tell me he has powers yet isn't dark matter infused?!" asked V in shock, "Um, I think I'll leave now" said V, only to be blocked by the Mega Neko, "HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! You're not going anywhere!" said Oyage, V ran for her life while being chased by the Mega Neko, as the Mega Neko began to chase her, it's tail knocked Pion away.
As V ran, her cellphone began to ring, she answered it and to her surprise, it was Pion, "Lure him back to the entrance, I can shoot him with a microwave to melt his form" said Pion, "Wait, Microwave? What are you talking about?", "Trust me", With that, V headed back to the entrance, Mega Neko in pursuit.
Pion stood near the entrance holding a gun shaped weapon made from scrap, as V came into view, so did the Mega Neko, Pion pulled the trigger and suddenly it let out an orange light, "NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!" screamed Oyage as the cat form began to melt, revealing Oyage underneath, Oyage simply stayed slumped on the ground while Pion approached V, "Miss Vientiane, when I was knocked away, I got exposed to microwaves being emitted from a nearby machine, giving me my memories back, and I have something to tell you", Pion told V, "I'm not human" she said, "I kinda knew that already" said V with a sigh, she then approached Oyage and found something on the ground near him, it was a Letter V pin, V, knowing something isn't right, decided to bring both of the strange people back to Brian, Pion agreed while Oyage agreed with a hint of sadness in his voice.

Re: Execution(RP)
After the dark matter revelation was over, Zorlo had gone. He popped in at the apartment building of Lucia and looked up. "She was right... I need to talk to her and apologize... I feel bad now," he stated as he sighed and entered into the building and started moving towards Lucia's room. Zorlo sighed and knocked on her door as he stood there and bit his lip. "LUcia... I'm sorry... I didn't mean to disagree with you... you were right..." he said as he sat down at the door. Hopefully she'd forgive him.

Re: Execution(RP)
Lucia looked up from the preparation she was doing on her scythe. She listened, confused on why he was asking for forgiveness. Just because she was against a mission did not mean others couldn't take it. She kept her scythe on the ground opening the door up. She still had her usual expression. "It is the duty of executioners to take missions. Why do you apologize for taking an assignment I have refused?"
Re: Execution(RP)
"Because the assignment lacked purpose. The target didn't even contain dark matter. I have dirtied my blades on helping that cat woman and that V woman in attacking a person I had no business fighting. I shall trust you and your actions from here on... just please help guide me. I'm... I'm lost," he told her as he knelt before her. "Please help me."

Lucia grasped his hand, pulling him into the apartment. She had him sitting at the table again. She was preparing what looked to be tea. She spoke like usual as she stood in the kitchen. "My decisions are based on what I have been raised with. Without a crime, even if it is falsified, death cannot be justified. I can only execute guilty people."
Re: Execution(RP)
"Sounds excellent," Zorlo stated with a smile as he cracked his neck. "I... I only took this job in hopes of finding that woman we fought yesterday. Now that I know she's gone... i gotta figure out my next act... and you helped a lot yesterday, ya know?" he told her as he stood up and headed into the kitchen to watch her. "W-would you mind if I spent some time with you and learned more about you. Methinks we could both benefit from one another."

Re: Execution(RP)
"There is no particular reason to see that request as a problem." Lucia stated, looking towards him. "As long as I have time to prepare, there is no problem." She turned her gaze back to the tea kettle on the stove.
