Raiya followed Nemo up the stairs. The small lookout was bare bones, nothing but a metal platform surrounded by guard rails. Raiya could smell the blood before they actually reached the level of the lookout. She readied her pistol, ejecting her magazine she had spent all the cartridges from previously, and swapping it out for a [i]special[/i] magazine in her inventory. Once they reached the lookout, it was abundently clear that Nemo had hit his mark. The glass and the blood obviously told most of the story there was to tell. However, a key part of the story was missing, [i]the body.[/i] Raiya put up her guard as soon as she processed her surroundings. 
	
	As the wall disintegrated and Nemo pulled the two of them backwards, Raiya readied her technique, which was a prototype ritual still yet to be fleshed out. She charged her mana into the gun which conducted through the metal slide and into the round that was in the chamber.

	The ritual needed three seconds to complete. Her mana reacted with the special silver cartridge, building and interacting with the contents of the cartridge.

	The gunpowder mixture began to change on a chemical level. The gunpowder inside the cartridge was a special mixture of black powder and snake-oil that Raiya had packed herself. The powder was beginning to change into pure magical energy.

	Raiya aimed her gun at the sniper in the outpost and pulled the trigger, the firing pin struck the chambered round's primer. This primer was special, in that the back of the primer itself was an incomplete rune. The small firing pin only needed to strike the center of the round to complete the small rune igniting the gunpowder mixture which had now been changed into magical energy. The round itself was a small sharp tungsten cone. As the bullet left the barrel, the magical energy that followed the bullet mixed into the air directly in front of the suppressor and behind the bullet, creating a large pink magical runic circle. The runic circle was the completion of a contract of sorts that was written into the back of the tungsten cone bullet. Specifically it granted the tungsten cone bullet specific transmutations. The tungsten bullet transformed from mere tungsten into a devastating spear of plasma about 6 inches in circumference. It would surely rip apart any organic matter it were to come into contact with, and create a large explosion it were to hit any dense inorganic matter.
