[b][u]Banshee-44’s part:[/u][/b] With the Sword of Stone recovered, Spitfire had time to do other little things in the tower. This time however, was their unlucky day. An arduous task rose on the Horizon. Yuri: Howdy-doo Banshee. Banshee-44: *gumbles* I have a weapon for ya? No, you had that glimmer cannon...or maybe that, Nadir, thing. Yuri: Glimmer cannon? Banshee-44: So that was you then? Yuri: No, but I’d sure like one. Banshee-44 grumbled to himself for a moment before replying. Banshee-44: Tell you what, you find a part I’ve been missing in cold storage. They say they’ve been having tech problems and won’t let me go in myself. You seem like you could do it. Yuri: Oh I am all sorts of down for this. Lead the way my deteriorating friend. Banshee-44: I may be old, but I can still acknowledge insults. Just you remember who beat Saladin in an arm wrestling match. Yuri: Jeez. Banshee-44 lead Yuri to a hatch by the cryptarch and took him downstairs to the cool storage. He came to the cold storage door and opened it to reveal a large storage room with robotic arms zooming left and right and up and down, moving crates from shelf to shelf. A frosty fog covered the room. Banshee-44: Welp, here you go. You’re looking for special accelerated Suros fusion coil, model SX-447. Good luck, try not to die. Seriously, those arms go at about sixty to sixty-five miles an hour. You’ll be dead before you even realize it. Banshee-44 left Yuri to his task. Yuri: I’m in waaaaay over my head……..Meh, never stopped me before. Yuri took one step into the room and got plowed by one to the arms. His ghost revived him back at the entrance. Yuri: Beginner's bad luck. Yuri Took two steps into the room before another arm piled drived him. He revived and switched on his fireteam comm. Yuri: Taravax, Iris, need help. Taravax-7: What is it? Yuri:Banshee, said, thaaaat…there’s some extremely dangerous materials in cool storage and he wants us to get it out of there. Iris: Why wouldn’t he just have the cold storage crew get it? Yuri: oh it’s, it’s crazy down here. I think someone might have broken something. Just hurry. Taravax-7: Be right there. After a little while Taravax-7 and Iris met up with Yuri. Yuri: Right, so he says the thing is a special suros fusion coil and we gotta find it and bring it to him. Taravax-7: What? Protocol says to transmat hazardous material out of the tower as soon as it’s found. Banshee even wrote the rule himself. Why would he want it? Yuri:......Ok, gonna come clean, I was lying. Iris: Why would you- Yuri: In my defence, it’s for a good reason. Taravax-7: I’d love to hear it. Yuri: You never would have come otherwise. Anyway, we are actually looking for a special Suros fusion coil. Banshee needs it for something. The staff won’t get it for him and they won’t let him go get it himself. So I got recruited. Taravax-7: So why do you need us? Yuri took one backwards step into the cold storage room and got ran over by another mechanical arm. Yuri: Any questions? Iris: What do you expect us to do about it? Yuri: Taravax has has a bubble and you can zap some tech. Taravax-7: You couldn’t just use a tether? Yuri: Y- you know what I-I never thought of that. Yuri summoned a void bow and fired the arrow a little ways into the cold storage. An arm came sweeping by and got stopped, almost dead in it’s tracks. Yuri: Well seeing as how you’re here, why not join me? Yuri walked in and fired two more arrows into the room. Taravax-7 and Iris reluctantly followed. They got to the third arrow’s landing point and stopped. Yuri: So, what do I do when I’m out of arrows? The tether disappeared after a moment and after a few seconds an arm that was moving a large crate smacked into the whole team. They respawned back at the door. They tried again a few minutes later and tried to climb up one of the arms that got caught in the tether. They got crushed by the sudden jolt speed when the arm was free of the tether. They respawned at the door once again and a fire sparked in Iris’ eye. Iris: Now I’m just angry. Iris burst into a storm of electricity and started zapping any of the mechanical arms that came close. Taravax-7 and Yuri followed closely. They got farther than the last two tries and Yuri spotted the crate that contained the coil. Unfortunately it was still very far away and Iris’ storm trance wore off. They got rammed and started back at the door. Taravax-7: I have a plan. Yuri: Spill it big man, pretty sure I’m somehow losing brain cells from doing this. Taravax-7: Iris uses her storm trance to get us back to where we were. Once there, I’m going to throw up a ward of dawn. Yuri, that gives you time to fire off you tethers. Yuri: Alright let’s go. They waited a few minutes then gave it another go. Iris entered her storm trance and made a break for where they were before. Just before it gave out, Taravax-7 dropped a ward of dawn. Yuri quick fired off three shots that made a path straight to the container. They ran to it and scooped it up. Yuri: YES! WE GOT IT! They ran back to the first tether shot and stopped. Yuri: How uh-........How do we get back? The tether disappeared. Yuri: Son of a- The team started back at the door, again. Iris: Well at least we got the box a few feet closer. Taravax-7: Just a few more times, we’ll get it. Yuri groaned loudly. After three more wipes, they finally got the box out of the cold storage. Yuri:[i] I’ve never died so many times in a row before. It’s like Shaxx rigged a match and pinned me against twenty of his Redjacks.[/i] Taravax-7: I don’t know, found this oddly fun. Iris: Me too. Like solving a difficult, but not too difficult, puzzle. Yuri: You’re crazy, both of you. Taravax-7: let’s get the box over to Banshee. I’m sure he’ll reward you for your efforts. Yuri groaned again and flopped onto the create in anguish. The team brought the Container up to Banshee-44. Banshee-44: You here for that, Omolon rifle. No. titan. Hakke? Yuri: [i]I got your part.[/i] Banshee-44 took the box and inspected it. Banshee-44: ...This isn’t the right model. This is the SX-477, not the SX-447. Taravax-7 and Iris looked over at Yuri and could practically see his very spirit shatter into pieces. Yuri fell over and passed out on the ground. Banshee-44 started chuckling hard. Banshee-44: Oh, relax you two, it’s the right model. Just dishing out a little payback. Tell him I’ll get him his glimmer cannon by next armsday. Assuming he wakes up. Banshee-44 went to work with the coil while Iris and Taravax-7 Dragged Yuri out of the way. They left Yuri in the vanguard hall and went back to the people they originally went to go see.
