"Taking the shot." The figure said into his headset, as the man in a black balaclava looked down the uncapped scope of his L96A1 Sniper. in one swift movement of his right trigger finger his black glove around his hand pulled back the olive green trigger of his gun, which set in motion a small explosion of gunpowder within his gun to act as a propellant for his bullet, which travelled through the raining air and past the water that fell. It zoomed past a silencer as the lightning struck, and his shot tore through the chest of a poorly armoured bandit below. Cocking his gun back, the talon underneath his gun had poked through which revealed the figure to be Lopez, who had concealed his feathery image beneath a grey jumpsuit with dark red sleeves to it. His first target dropped and the casing of his bullet clattered on the stony ground beneath him just before rolling off into the canyon beneath.
"Bax, you and Jocelyn in position? I got Keith waiting in the truck with Andre."
Meanwhile in the canyon and not on the gigantic stony sides, a lonesome blade pierced through the flesh and Kevlar armour of one better equipped Bandit, which in turn sent a spray of blood to fly backwards from the back, over the cutlass that ran the man through and onto the black jumpsuit of Baxter. Baxter was a fairly attractive man, with a literal steel jaw and tanned skin covering his body from head to toe. His black hair was messy and unkempt seeing as he always hated to fix it in the pouring rain, as the hair had never stayed down for Bax. His cloudy grey eyes were emotionless as he watched the now passed figure collapse onto the ground, and upon hearing Lopez' words, he spoke into the headset that was built in.
"Joce and I are here. Drew with you?"
Before the man could get a response, a figure seemingly appeared from thin air before Bax's synthetic eyes. Normally he would have jumped on the chance to off the target with his blade but the figure in the black armour was not foe, but friend. Covered head to toe in a set of combat armour without the left shoulder piece was Andrew, who concealed his face behind a mask and set of night vision goggles. He twirled the blade in between his fingers as the second corpse dropped to the floor and all the blood just slid off the pairs suits due to the special anti-staining material coated on the gear. Drew was kind of freaky, in the sense that he didn't speak to the team A.I and melee unit, instead he opted for the silent route as he just stared at Bax until he spoke to Lopez.
"Never mind."
"Guys..." A woman's voice said to either of the men nearby her, which alerted both Bax and Drew. Jocelyn had spoken up from the bush she inhabited which went well with her black clothing and green armour plates, which had also taken the same pattern as the green and black stripes of paint that ran diagonally along her angular and beautiful face. Her long blonde hair was tied back into a ponytail and hidden with a black combat helmet that also carried a little netting ro conceal the back and sides of her neck, which remained unpainted. Looking through the scope of her SCAR-L she identified a pair of men who were on patrol, which prompted both Baxter and Drew to duck into the tiny bit of foliage that remained in the bandit's gardens, among the fruits and vegetables they harvested through the day in this desolate canyon. A sleek yet freezing dagger formed in Drew's hands as the arm extended itself for the first bandit which buried and melted within his head, as that's what Gallium Throwing Knives did.
If the second man had a quicker reaction time then it was not to be seen, because Baxter immediately jumped out and with one swoop of his blade, the bandit's head fell. But Bax didn't stop there for he took four more slashes at the figure, and both arms and legs dropped within the time frame of a single second.
Unfortunately for the team, a snipers scope fell upon Baxter. The trigger was pulled from inside a makeshift tower of scrap metals but the shot was only a .308 bullet, and unfortunately it didn't land inside Baxter's body but it plinked off the surface. A look of anger on his synthetic face, Bax ripped a second cutlass from his side and sprinted to the front gates of the small compound, and when he shoulder charged into the steel wall a massive gaping hole was ripped open from the sheer impact. A psychotic man with a machete sprinted towards Bax but before he could arrive, Jocelyn's bullet from her SCAR tore through his head. As she ran to the gates she extended her left hand to the gate as if she was pushing it open, and a wave of blue energy shot from her very palms to force the steel gates open. Drew was somehow already inside the compound and in the tower with the sniper, where a neck was snapped and a body fell to the ground. He dived out of the tower with a double backflip, and he landed on the skulls of two bandits.
On the other half of the compound a second gate was burst open by a heavily armoured Jeep, which was driven by Andreas. Behind the bulletproof glass, Andreas had dark skin and a pair of warm brown eyes, with short hair that looked akin to a military haircut. A 50. Caliber turret on the top unleashed hell as the user, Keith, rained hell on the bandits. Keith was a light skinned fella with bright blue eyes and a brown goatee, which matched the brown hair on top of his head. He wore the same jumpsuit as Andreas, which was a black jumpsuit with a chestplate of kevlar with carbon fibre beneath it, and a black helmet much like Jocelyn's that had no covering for the neck. "WOOOO!" Shouted Keith and Andreas in unison with one another as Andre crashed through many bandits and Keith picked off even more of them with his gun. Pulling up to the front,three of the four doors opened to allow Bax, Drew and Jocelyn in while Lopez swooped down.
As Lopez flew into the main bandit building, it was completely empty of all life within and so he could sprint to the server room without hassle. Grabbing a USB stick from a large brown table in the white walled room, he sprinted back out through the bullet-riddled halls of the building in which he found himself in, and he sprinted to the roof. The land all around him was barren and completely devoid of all life within miles aside from various vultures, but Lopez enjoyed the silence. So he jumped off the roof and wingsuited into the canyon beyond, as the rest of the crew drove off in their Jeep.
((Open. Be in the canyon and the team will find you.))

[b]About 300 yards out, Osprey watches the whole thing go down with his sight enhancement goggles. He sits in a small camp on the side of the canyon.[/b]
-
The crew in the car never noticed Osprey watching them drive as they could not visibly get eyes on his position and thus none of them could really do anything.
-
[b]Opsrey begins to run toward the wreckage as they're leaving, they can see him in the rear view mirror, not too far away.[/b]
-
"Nlgga is that a bandit?" Andreas shouted to Keith from the drivers seat as he looked out the bulletproof glass window and into the side view mirror, which prompted Keith to spin. Spotting Osprey he couldn't differentiate friendly from enemy, and so he opened fire from his mounted gun.
-
[b]Opsrey jumps away from the bullets and pulls out his staff, he fires a single beam from it which hits the back of the vehicle, exploding leaving a dent.[/b]
-
The crew inside swerved the vehicle to the right as they narrowly avoided the shot from the staff, but the man that was Osprey had soon found himself outnumbered and outgunned. Jocelyn and Andrew rolled down their windows as either grabbed a gun, firing a SCAR L, an M417, and Keith firing his turret at Osprey without showing any signs of stopping. ((A staff against a team of six, you're outnumbered and outvunned))
-
[b]Osprey fires more blasts and goes towards cover.[/b] [spoiler]He has heavy armor and a laser powered staff with a magic crystal, he stands a bit of a chance[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]So, is this a plot post? Or do you want me to stir up some trouble? I just want to know how to reply. [/spoiler]

(Do whatever)

[i]near bottom of the canyon near the bottom sits tall man with silver wings and next to him sits a man black hair with bright green eyes he covered in scales. The other has light brown hair with hazel eyes. They both wear similar light tan robes. they both sit in the shade created by his huge wings. [/i]

"The -blam!- is that?!" Andreas asked to his crew as he leaned in to see both of the figures as he darted down the path that was the canyon, though nobody spoke up. "Looks like the Bad and the Ugly got with Keith's sister." He remarked as a joke, tough Keith popped his left hand into the car and slapped Andre on the back of his head. Most people in the car would wonder why this man had wings, though Lopez flew by and approached the pair with his wingsuit. His beak was uncovered and the green eyed could see the pair from a mile away, so he put on a pair of goggles to adjust his sight and look into the eyes of one as he landed and walked closer. "Hey, you two gringos know this canyon is full of banditos right?"
-
"Nah we ain't worried about them"says the man with the wings. "My name is talath and that nanos"says talath
-
The bird/man hybrid scratched the back of his neck with the talons within his left glove and looked to the winged figure, if he could physically smile with his beak he would. Lopez turned to the armoured car and pointed them down the canyon where they dashed off and when he turned back, he looked to the winged man. "Lopez. You a flyer too?"
-
"Yeah i can fly so can he but he has to transform first he's a dragon"says nanos "Yup sure am i"says talath
-
"Just don't go pillaging my crib and we'll be good." The hawk-human responded with an estranged look upon his truly odd face. He had seen people that took the image of a different being through various ways after the GenLabs Golem Project was erected in Cedyetica, but never had he seen someone transform into a dragon, it was strange and he thought of it as magic.
-
"Dont worry about that we not type to steal"says nanos "There's no honor in such for me"says talath
-
"-blam!- honour ese, just sayin' I'll pop you if ya try to stick me up."
-
"Well i won't"says talath "Neither will i"says nanos
-
"Good.. Well I gotta go drop a package off, talk to you two some other time." Lopez said with a smile as he turned around and started to sprint away. With a jump and the flapping of his wings Lopez was flying off quickly. ((End))
