Mission
Rolland walks out of the airport and looks out at the city

Fi: She steps out of airport and trails Rolland, then looks up at him, and turns away to face the city

Kate: Walks out quickly and looks around.

Rolland: So, I take it we'll be working together? I made temporary peace with the campers before, looks like I can again. Name's Rolland.

Fi: She looks up at him and speaks softly Hi there, Rolland. I'm Fiona.

Rolland: You seem timid. Why's that?

Fi: Overwhelmed, I guess. Looks out to the cityscape Everything's so pretty.

Dustin: Steps out of the airport looking grim

Kate: ''Nods at Rolland. ''I'm Kate.

Ileana: Finally gets through airport security and finds the others, and turns to her fellow BC members first Hello friends. Turns to the campers with an unimpressed face And...and hello to you too I guess.

Fi: She turns her head to Ileana Hii...

Kate: nods at Ileana.

Ariana: ''Ariana follows Ileana in, cracking her knuckles. ''She sees her fellow campers. Time to kick some a**! She then sees the BC Members and shudders. Do we need them? I mean, they hate us.

Kate: Yes, we do need them and they need us.

Fi: Smiles They don't seem too bad. So, who's got the wand?

Rolland: Walks up to Ariana and looks her in the eyes Yes, you DO need us, and if you have an issue, I'm MORE than willing to resolve it. I have the wand, Fiona.

Ariana: Ariana smiles, meeting Rolland's eyes. As least we don't have a bunch of babies on our side, eh? I don't mind you being here as you can keep up. Ariana eyes the group. That shouldn't be a problem.

Fi: She steps in between them I think we should get a move on instead of fighting, quarelling amongst our selves will not complete our objective. She takes out 6 flowers and hands them to the team members As long as we have these we will forget about our differences and focus on our objective solely. Deal?

Kate: ''takes the flower then raises her eyebrow at Fi. ''Not to be mean or anything but, I seriously don't want to carry a flower around.

Dustin: Takes his flower as well Fine

Fi: turns to Kate Fine, but if Rolland kills you, it is totally not my problem.

Kate: Who?

Ariana: Ariana sighs, looking at Kate. At least try to pay attention. Ariana takes a flower and thanks Fiona before tucking it under her armor. And I agree. We need to get there as fast as possible.

Kate: Glares at Ariana before sliding the flower into her back pocket.

Ariana:'' Ariana sighs again, this time sounding tired. She puts her hand on Kate's shoulder.'' I'm sorry. I guess I'm just anxious to go, or something.

Kate: ''Nods and her glare dissappears but, she doesn't smile. ''It's okay.

Rolland: Since I'm a threat to your life, it's be a good idea to know who I am....

Ariana: Ariana snaps her head around, and she defensively moves in front of Kate. Why don't you just shut your mouth? We're not here to pick a fight with some wannabe badass. We're here to take out Pagos, so keep to yourself. You're not our current priority.

Rolland: He snaps his fingers and she sinks up to her waist in the ground What's that about a wannabe badass? I've seen the son of a bitch with my own two eyes, and put my ass on the line to get this He pulls out the wand. So, I know our "current priority" much better then you will ever imagine. So, I'd suggest shutting your mouth because not only do you not know who you're talking to, you don't know what you're talking about little girl.

Kate: Would you guys please stop fighting. Right now we've got bigger problems.

Ariana: ''Ariana's eyes glow and a bolt comes out from the sky, breaking up the earth around her. She floats out and sighs, rolling her eyes.'' I'm with Kate no that one. (OOC: This is assuming the ground is still hard around her, not quick sand)

Dustin: Guys enough...if you continue I'll turn you all into cockroaches.

Ariana: Right, well... we should probably get going now. Pagos isn't gonna wait for us.

Fi: Oh yea, well, lets go then

Rolland: Yea, let's. He retrieves a maor from the airport and begins walking towards Wollemi. Well? You lot coming?

Ileana: As long as you two save your childish fights for later, fine. Follows Rolland 

Kate: Follows them.

Fi: Does the same

Dustin: I will meet you guys there Transforms into a Peregrine Falcon and flies off towards Wollemi

Ariana: Ariana follows the group.

as they near Wollemi they hear beeping coming from somewhere

Rolland: That gods-forsaken beeping!! What is it this time? He listens intently to determine where it's coming from.

Fi: Listens, then turns to Rolland and shrugs I can't tell

Rolland: This same thing happened last time, too.....Though it seems to be getting to me much more quickly this time......

the beeping appears to be louder the further in the park they go, but are still quite a ways from place where they found Pagos last time, but fairly close to the tunnel they made in the ground

Kate: Gods! That beeping noise is getting on my nerves.

Rolland: Wait a minute.........He walks towards the area they entered last time

Ileana: Rolland, perhaps we should be more catious than just walking over to a tunnel. The beeping could be an explosive...

Rolland: You mean the tunnel I created? I think I know what I'm doing...

Ileana: You never know. This is an apparently powerful, insane maniac we are attempting to stop.

Dustin: Lands next to the group, and transforms into his human form

Fi: Turns to Dustin and smiles How cool

Ariana: Ariana stands listening to the beeping noise, unsure of what to do.

Fi; Turns to Ariana Anyone mind checking the bunker? I'm not used to being off ground. She blushes embarrassedly

Rolland: I will....step aside, please. He walks into the tunnel

Ariana: ''Ariana raises her eyes when rolland says 'Step aside'. She follows him in, buzzing with electricity''.

Dustin: Transforms into a bat and flies into the cave

Ileana: Rolls her eyes and grabs Fi by the shoulder C'mon, let's actually be of use and help bat-boy in the tunnel.

Fi: Follows Illeana into the cave

Ariana: ''Ariana looks around in the bunker and sees nothing suspicious yet. The electricity stops and her stance relaxes.'' At least we're alone...

Some indistinct noises can be heard up ahead.

Fi: Scans the room and gulps I hope

Rolland: He continues ahead of the others

Ariana:'' Ariana shrugs and looks at the group. Just kidding? She follows Roland silently''.

Ileana: How about you kid around when it might not lead to our deaths....

Dustin: Continues to fly around the group using echolocation in hopes of detecting any problems

Ariana: Ariana rolls her eyes. I wasn't really joking, I was just wrong. It's a figure of speech. Ya know, to cover up that fact that I made a mistake''. Ariana makes a face at Ileana''.

Rolland: He keeps himself prepared for anything that may come out of hiding.

Ileana: Rolls her eyes at Ariana and unsheathes her katana in case of trouble.

Fi: Flicks her fans open

Kate: Gets her spear out and readys it.

Ariana: Ariana readies her spear-staff, coating it with electricity.

Rolland: He runs his hand over Avalanche in his pocket as he presses forward

Fi: She lowers he fans and turns to Rolland Do you sense anything?

Rolland: No...and that's what's odd. The earth's eerily calm here...

Ariana: Ariana raises an eyebrow. The calm before the storm...?

Rolland: Smirks Your desire to be important's showing....

Ariana: Ariana smiles back. Your desire to be a complete ass is showing.

Rolland: Little girl, please. Bear in mind, if this tunnel were to suddenly collapse on only you, suffocating you instantly, who'd really think I did it? Grins maliciously

Ariana: Like it or, Mr. tough guy, you need us. You can't plan on fighting Pagos or any of his army if you don't have us. So maybe you need to stop trying to show everyone up! At this point, we're all in this pile of sh*t together. Ariana covers her mouth as she realizes she has been screaming in an otherwise silent tunnel.

Rolland: Clearly you misheard me. He snaps his fingers and a fist made of earth erupts from the bottom of the tunnel into her gut,and before she can fall, another slams down from the top of the tunnel, knocking her over. Now, look what your unbridled fury has done. You've given away our position....

Kate: Would you guys shut up and quit fighting!

Ariana: Ariana stands and flashes lightning in front of Rolland's eyes, temporarily blinding him. I don't think you heard me, Rolland. We're teammates. Teammates! That entails helping each other, even if we don't seem to get along too well. Now can we stop, and focus on the enemy at hand? Some things are more important than our pride.

Ileana: As much as I hate to agree with campers, they have a point. This fighting only softens us up for Pagos.

Dustin:Shifts back to human form Ileana is right, Pagos is our priority at the moment, his job will only be made easier if we kill each other.

Rolland: Pride? You are yet again mistaken. I simply want to kill you, if I haven't made it painfully obvious.

Ariana: You can have your turn at me, right after we're finished with Pagos. For now, we need to focus on him.

'Rolland: There will be no turns. You will simply be dead. Or did you forget that you're underground? Where the sky can't help you, but the earth can kill you...

Ariana: Ariana ignores him and continues onward, reaching the central area of the bunker.

Fi: Pads along behind Ariana

'Rolland: Sighs, and pushes in front of them, erecting an earth-shield in front of them, scanning the room

Dustin: Walks in behind the others Anybody else have that ominous feeling that something bad is going to happen?

Ariana: Ariana raises her hand slightly. I get that feeling everytime someone mentions Pagos.

''The central chamber looks much as it did previously, though another tunnel can now be seen leading away from the room. The other tunnel doesn't look new, but must have been hidden previously since it wasn't noted by the other expedition. Some small noises, sounding somewhat like talking, can be heard echoing from somewhere near its end.''

Dustin: Looks down the new tunnel I am guessing whatever is down there probably is not a wombat

Ariana:'' Ariana nods to the tunnel and puts a finger to her lips, emphasizing silence. She tiptoes into the tunnel.''

Rolland: ''He grabs her by the shoulder and holds up a hand. He then steps forward and the spot of earth he is standing on rises from the ground. He does the same for Fi before gesturing behind him, softening the ground so their footsteps don't make noise. He then draws Avalanche and moves his boulder forward slowly''

Kate: Follows quietly behind.

Ariana:'' Ariana's staff is buzzing with electricity, giving the area around them a faint glow. She looks are her teammates and nods solemnly''.

Fi: Smiles at Rolland thankfully Thanks, Rolland

Ariana: Ariana half-smiles awkwardly. Erm... yeah. What she said...

Dustin: Shakes his head and follows silently behind the others

''The next room is substantially smaller than the one they just left, though also features a caved-in roof through which the light illuminating the room pours. Tamarisk can be easily made out against the bright light, but the other figure in the room seems to instead impose itself upon its surroundings and where brightness would normally be covering its head and shoulders, the entirety of its cloak remains a deep matte black; a seemingly impenetrable void of darkness. The cloaked man rises from a seated position and brings his considerable height to bear; turning to face the newcomers. Where the light would normally illuminate a face beneath the hood, the mans' face remains entirely invisible and shrouded in the same darkness that seems to surround, and almost radiate from, him. He raises his arms dramatically as if to encompass the chamber, and speaks audibly for the first time; his voice deep and gravelly, yet markedly adolescent. ''

Pagos: I'm sorry, I owe you a far more dramatic entrance, considering how far you've travelled just to meet me in person. Unfortunately, this small room will have to suffice. Come, Tamarisk, we ought to greet our visitors. He drops into a gracious bow.

Dustin: Looks at Pagos with fear in his eyes and silently debates on whether he should fight or save his own skin.

Rolland: He stares at Tamarisk, trying to read her expression for some sort of sign

Ariana:'' Ariana's face hardens at the sight of their enemy. She glances quickly between Tamarisk and Pagos, assessing the situation''.

Kate: She stays calm but her body tenses up at the sight of Pagos.

''Pagos rises from his bow and stands, as if awaiting their next move. Tamarisk still stands motionless.''

Fi: Hello, Tamarisk and Pagos. She holds out a hand, slightly shivering in fear.

''Pagos walks forward and shakes her hand, genuinely, before silently offering to do the same with the others. ''

Kate: She steps forward proudly and shakes his hand with her free hand.

Dustin: Eyes Pagos with apparent distrust

Rolland: I'm not touching you....

Ariana: Ariana steps forward respectfully, feeling more curious than anything else as she shakes his hand. I can't exactly say it's a pleasure to meet you.

Dustin: Continues to look at Pagos Ok now that introductions are over with, perhaps you could explain to us why you are here.

Pagos: Steps back a little and nods. That is as good a place to start as any, though I expect that Tamarisk here can explain better than I can.

Tamarisk: ''Visibly worried. ''Before Pagos found me I was trying to develop ways in which to discover exactly what was happening outside this gods forsaken bunker. The most successful of these was a way in which plant-like drones could be created from a Human template and after some time I found a way to lure Humans here in order to use them as templates, and then release them again into the world. Pagos is interested in both this manner of control, and the way in which I created the drones. I've already explained to him that the control is extremely difficult to implement, and only works within a set area, but he is interested in expanding it anyway. As for the drones, well, you can see for yourself if he'll let you.

Fi: Bites her lip and looks to Pagos May we?

Ariana: Ariana smiles tightly. You don't seem like the type of man that hides his achievements, so why don't you go ahead and show us now?

Ileana: How about we not let them show us minions that could overpower us and make us prone to their control? That seems like a more logical idea...

Ariana: Ariana whispers to Ileana. We need to know what we're up against.

Ileana: Whispers back What's there to know? It's basically mind controlled people...

Rolland: So you want this person who has gone out of their way to exhibit that he is more powerful than we can ever hope to be to hit us with everything he's got? Bloody brilliant plan......

Pagos: Actually, I am the type of man who hides his achivements, and for a reason. Demonstrating to you what Tamarisk has created has no inherent value to me at this time. ''He crosses his arms. ''So, I would presume that the two of you who refused to shake hands are from Camp Half-Blood? From what I understand, your group is more prone to irrational fears than the "Broken Covenant".

Dustin: Makes a buzzer sound Oh I am sorry, Mr. Pagos you have lost this round of Demigod Affiliation

Rolland: Dustin, please. But you are incorrect. I too am affiliated with the Covenant.

Pagos: Interesting, then perhaps that stereotype is incorrect. What would you say, members of Camp?

Ariana: I shook your hand, and I gotta say that you should try moisteruizing. Crusty hands don't stop for the evil, you know. Ariana pauses. Why haven't you attacked us yet, Pagos? Aren't we enemies?

Pagos: ''Seems slightly annoyed that she dodged the question, but answers. ''Whether or not we become enemies depends entirely upon your conduct, and that of your fellows. Presently, I see no reason for outright animosity, but if you really have no interest in dealing with things diplomatically, we would most regrettably become enemies.

Kate: ''She steps forward. ''So are you saying that we should become allies?

Pagos: Unless you happen to have some sort of aversion to what I represent, then that would undoubtedly be in the best interests of everyone present.

Ileana: And what do you stand for exactly? Chaos?

Pagos: Almost apalled. No, absolutely not, I stand for its opposite.

Kate: Peace? How do you stand for peace?
