[color=00a651][i][b][center]Gren Orchid[/center][/b][/i][/color] Gren spent the ride back in silence. Even when Shiro asked him his question, Gren said nothing. All he did was nod as a confirmation that he wouldn't say a thing. It's not as though Shiro was as subtle (Or willing to be subtle) as Gren was when it came to secrets. Speaking of secrets, what Gren was doing now was messaging his White Fang contacts through his wifi. He didn't blatantly just go to any old member tell him everything he wanted to say. No, he needed to be secretive, able to hide from the cyber police who would monitor him. And what a better way to be secretive than to be acting? Gren was on a roleplaying web site called "RPGuild", where he PM'd a few of his buddies about an upcoming side plot involving the capture of a pop singer. He named the location and a vague strategy of how to capture the sing he called "Bait-and-switch". A [url=http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/BaitAndSwitch]link[/url] was provided. He intended to take the pop star as she was a particular fan of Gren's character, also for her own safety after he uncovers a much more sinister plot worse than his fanboyism. At some point Gren actually forgot that he was sending a secret message to his White Fang associates and actually went into great detail about his side plot. By the time the team arrived back to Beacon Gren was still elaborating on his side-plot-turned-into-a-big-mess with his GM. There Vale Authorities were already there to take in the Pops and the others for questioning. Pop's trial was going to take some time, but eventually he'll mysteriously "Disappear" in the hands of the White Fang. Now it was up to them to take care of it, though tomorrow he'll head to Pop's computer to take the research and ensure no one else steals the information but him. As the team left the ship Shiro mentioned that he was going to stay back, seemingly to maintenance his weapon. It struck it odd to Gren that Shiro would want to do that here instead of say, back at the dorm or in one of the weapon shops. Gren figured that Shiro just didn't want to get in Sapphire's way however; it was likely that she too was going to head either to her room or to one of the workshops to either rest or make herself new weapons, respectively. Seeing that he had very little to do himself, Gren stepped up to his leader. [color=00a651]"You'll be needing a weapon before tomorrow. Preferably something you're comfortable with. Do you need any help from me, Sapphire?"[/color] [i][b][center]Caravan Mission[/center][/b][/i] The truck drivers remained inside the truck, though they did shout out to Oswald that they had some heavy duty chains in a container on the underside of the truck. If he looked for a few minute he'd find a plastic container with chains, hooks, and other gadgets that would be useful for hauling vehicles, or in this instance flipping it back on it's wheels. There were a few hook holds on the top of the truck they could attach hooks to, though it would require some acrobatics to climb up to them even with the truck on it's side. Meanwhile back at the camp, the remaining schnee guardsmen took the opportunity to set up a kill zone in front of the mine. Specifically, it looked like they were ready to shoot anything that came [i]out[/i] of the mine. There was only seven of them left, only two of them who were suffering from some sort of injury. The eldest one, the one that Diamond and Oswald spoke to, ordered the younger guardsman to get Team MODA. Their problems, as well as their mission, wasn't over yet. [i][b][center]Patrol Mission[/center][/b][/i] The girl's intent to flood the streets started to break apart when Skyra first uprooted the girl's anchor, causing the anchor girl to get caught in her own rough torrent. She aligned herself quickly, but not quickly enough before she realized she was surrounded by Ebon's R-types. She pulled her anchors close to her to shield herself, but she couldn't shield every part of her. The lasers ripped through the water and into the girl. But before her Aura gave out, the water dropped, and the anchor girl was gone. [b]"That was a nice fight. But I have to ask; what exactly are you fighting for?"[/b] The voice came from one of the women from anchor girl's gang. Anchor girl herself was in the arms of the tiger faunas, looking rather worse-for-wear but alive. The woman who speak was the one with gradient blond/purple hair. She wore sunglasses and was the second tallest in the group. She seemed to be the leader. The entire group had the literal high ground as most were standing on the roof of the various shops and vendors. One of the girls were missing. At the Land of Walt the line for the Ursa Hammer game was getting short, so one of the carnies called out to Krysthane. "Hey pretty lady! Wanna play? Just hit the Ursa and get a free ice cream. Hit em hard enough and you'll even get a special prize! I gotta tell ya though, no one's gotten the prize yet, but it's so worth it! Come on, first swing's for free!" A big burly man tried to smash the ursa in the face, but he failed despite swinging so hard he actually broke the hammer. He did manage to get 80% of the way there however. The carny was unphased at the turn of events and simply pulled another rubber hammer out from a bucket near by. It was next to another bucket containing broken hammers. The big guy left dejected, but at least got ice cream.
