Neo held his position for the time being down the hallway seeing that others were willing to jump in. Normally he did a lot of this stuff himself with Ool so it was nice to have some more teammates were they could get some hitting in rather than just Neo having to sneak up behind people and knock them out all the time, though he was sure he’d probably have to do more of that even on this heist, but he really didn’t mind either way, he already gave them all a great deal of information he was the mind map for this assignment, contributing in that way already.

He “watched” what unfolded silently with a bit of a smile on his face. Though he did raise a bit of a brow as to why there was interest in the guard grade spear, sure they were quality enough but it’s not like they were rare or anything, perhaps they could be sold on the secondary market illegally to people who were trying to pretend to be an East Empire guard, those were some of the thoughts that did occur to Neo, but he didn’t actively voice them.

Aren made his way up next to the guard which he had decided to go after without fail he then tapped the guard, who in fact did turn around as was natural, just as they were about to react and start questioning Aren with their weapon pointed toward him, it wasn’t long before all they could get out was [b]“HEY YOU ARE-” [/b]

and they got punched in the face with the surprise attack.

Thankfully Marrion’s bug like agility made navigating the hallway pretty easy as she moved in quickly.

While the other guard was getting ready to stab Aren with his spear,  it was raised facing him and they were mid pivot, exclaiming [b]"TAKE THI-"[/b] Marrion jumped off the wall and tackled them for a surprise attack while she yanked the spear out of their hands with superstrength and she got to work choking them.

It was at that point that Neo made his way over quickly and gave them a quick palm strike to the wind pipe while Marrion held them down, so that the guard lost consciousness faster on the off chance anyone else nearby might hear the sounds.

He then gave a nod to her and Aren, [color=#00B3FF]“Good work..let’s get a move on.”[/color] He said softly, moving down the hall, people did have a chance to try to grab stuff off the guards if they wanted too.

[color=#00B3FF]“There will be another left coming up..”[/color] Neo spoke softly gesturing for the others to follow him further down the hall, until they hit the left, and he looked around the corner with Ool before gesturing for the group that they were in the clear, there were some wooden doors in the hallway that appeared to be locked about 3 on each side spread out from each other, but Neo didn’t seem very interested in those, perhaps already knowing from his scouting that there wasn’t anything really worth stealing behind them at the moment.

Thankfully this time there weren’t more guards in the hallway but there appeared to be a sizable wooden crate which top had partially been broken off while it was on its’ side. It did look a bit out of place but not entirely with the context that it was a damaged facility that wasn’t in current optimized use and was largely just being guarded from intruders. One would need to spend time to look in the crate to see if there was anything of interest.

Farther down the hall beyond the crate the there was a t-section which must mean the right that Neo had been talking about would be coming up.

[color=#00B3FF]“This might get a bit more..dicey.”[/color] He forewarned the group softly, as Ool continued to fly and glide gradually above the group keeping pace.
