The marker on the comm system would lead to a building that looked like a repurposed warehouse. The yard doors were open and many species milled about inside, though the majority seemed to be equines of the Clydesdale species, the majority of them male.
A figure in a black t-shirt carrying a large rifle was standing a few blocks away, waiting for the agents to arrive.
Technetium approaches the figure fairly silently, is a semi crouched position, with her matte black laser rifle drawn, clinging to alleyway walls and being as quiet and cautious as possible. It seems rather odd for such a small fennec to be so strategic and hostile, but it is. She lowers her aim as she approaches the figure, glancing around while waiting for the others.
A large golden scaled dragon wearing heavy combat armor flies to the location of the warehouse, spying the fennec from the air the dragon lands behind the small fox with a thud. The dragon replies to the small fox. "Hello, Technetium seems we are the only ones that showed up?"
the figure turned around, looking at the pair before sighing. "Ok. Looks like you are all the backup I get. I'm Agent Valorie, and we need to clear this compound so the eggheads can move in to retrieve the tech." The large equine Kemonomimi says, checking their rifle.
Technetium nods a bit, dipping her shaded face a bit as she checks over the dark rifle. She then outstretches a hand of greeting. "My name is Technetium, abd we all look foward to getting these materials." She then waits for the hand to be rejected or accepted.
Seguro looks down at the through sun hued eyes small horse, the dragons scales glitter in the light, hir muscular tail snakes through the air. "Greeting, Valorie my name is seguro. I am wondering if you know much of the feral in the building? Are the violent, can they be reasoned with? Also what is the tech we are recovering?"
"I'm not quite sure myself. Big Z only told me 'survived tech. As for if they are hostile, no, but they will object to our telling them to leave. We need this area feral-free before the science team can move in." They say, shaking the offered hand.
The approach of the dragon had drawn some attention from inside, and one of the smaller males were sent arouns to investigate. The stallion froze as he stepped around the corner, gawking and quivering in fear at the two armed agents and the oversized dragon. It looked like his recovered mentality was clashing with his feral instincts and he just... froze.
Technetium quickly raises her rifle to her shoulder, aiming at the figure while a small laser target appears on it's forehead. She calmly waves the other agents foward, keeping the rifle raised and in place. She was never a CQC kind of person.
Seguro moves quickly to head on the feral escape, the dragon's large frame moving with surprising speed, with a leap shi springs attempts behind the small feral, sadly the dragon missed judged the distance and smacks the poor thing in the head knocking the small creature to the ground. "Are you all right sorry, I did not mean to smack you I just wanted to talk to you before you ran."
The stallion is dazed and even more scared at this point by the large dragon. "D-dont hurt me.... please...." he says, cowering. "Oh dont hurt him. he could be useful." Valorie says, kneeling down next to him.
Technetium sighs, and lowers her rifle before saying to the others, "I don't have anything to restrain him with, nor capture, nor even force information out of him. It's too risky to hold him at gunpoint, as he could easily run off or disarm the gun holder. I'm not going to be the one to make the choice." She states before turning to lean against the compound door.
Taylor saunters down the street glancing to the sides (and up) occasionally to look out for random trouble
Seguro scoops the small creature in one of hir large paws, holding its some distance off the ground. "Sorry we wish to talk, I would rather solve this without the use of force." The dragon awaits for agents Valories's cue.
Valorie watches the new arriva
The stallion eeps as he is picked up. "O-ok... w-why do you need me?" he asks. Valorie spots the newcomer and waves them over.
Taylor blinks, having a hard time not noticing a rather huuuuge dragon like thingy after rounding the corner, evidently now with Stallion in hand. Inches towards a doorway, trying hard not to make too much noice nor look too shiny. Hidehidehide. And observe.
Seguro speaks to the small feral, in a soothing tone. "We would like to open a dialog and perhaps work out a peaceful solution, Zephyr Inc. is very interested in acquiring something in this compound. What can you tell us of the people that inhabit there compound." The dragon looks to Valorie shi asks. "Did you have something your want to ask him?"
After their scout didnt return, the ferala inside were getting restless. They started calling for a 'Brad' and the stallion looked nervous. "Look, Brad. All we need is for you and your herd to move out of this warehouse for the scientists to come and find what they need. Then you can move back in. What do you say?" Valorie proposes as shi listens to the calling.
Taylor considers things. Climb up on the roof of warehouse? Bad idea, just easier to spot. Glances to either side of the street. Nothing obvious. Hmm. Looks closer at the dragon just in case some Zephyr id is possible to see?
Seguro continues to hold the feral, the dragon speaks Valorie. "Hmm, I wonder something; they seem to have rational minds perhaps they can be bartered with? Do you think zypher would be willing to provide food and supplies, to allow access to the compound or act as guards?
"I am not sure.... We need the premise vacated, or the science crew wont move in." Valorie says. "We might have to resort to violence... Seguro, right? Put the sta
stallion down and look over the wall. I need you to bellow as loud as you can..."
Taylor blinks, grins, uses Illusion nanomagic to hide scent, glances behind the warehouse to see if there is a door there that can be opened for a stampede... Preferably without getting run down!
Seguro sets the small feral down shi point a clawed finger to the small horse. "Please don't run off, you may be our best hope for resolving this conflict of interest without violence." Walking over to wall, the dragon lets out a roar at the top of hir lungs.
These ferals werent particiarly cowardly, but for all the big buff stallions they were, that roar would make a tank mech leak oil into its armor
They flee quickly, running from the terrifyingw drag
They flee quickly, running from the terrifyingw dragon. They head for the back doors of the warehouse in a frantic rush. A stampede.
Taylor watches curiously, ready to do something with Sculpting in case that back door doesn't open easilly, but makes sure not to stand in the way of the stampede if it comes this way...
Seguro looks back to Valorie, Wondering if this was really the best course of action. "Well what now oh mighty negotiator, I wonder have we got them there herd to new dawn whether we would have less to fight in the future? So what now I think we should peek at this compound to make sure the building is clear."
The stampede bust through the back doors with sheer brute force and fleeing into the city. Valorie radios for the science crew and walks in to the compound. The remains of a lived in feral quarters were evident. Trash and copious amounts of dried sexual fluids on everything. "Looks safe..." Valorie says, walking around. There were no signs of a lab.
Taylor steps in through the (now broken) hangar-sized back door, flashing a Zephyr ID "The herd was last seen riding into the sunset... All well here?"
Seguro waits looking over the compound, before going to keep watch outside. Seguro keeps watch for any sign of trouble, hoping that this rash course of action will not back fire the small team, the large dragon uses the advantage of hir height to keep lookout.
Soon the science team arrives in their biohazard suits and poke around for a bit. They find what they were looking for: a solar powered calculator. A tiny little solar panel, but a solar panel.
Taylor looks a bit over the shoulders of some of the science team, but quickly fades into the background once it's clear everthing is 'in the bag' so to speak, and saunters off. Now, what was that before wandering dragons distracted everything..?
Seguro thinks of the small horse, wondering if they should have not put such a hot head in charge of this mission, shi waits for the science teams to depart. Before departing hirself.
