A slightly smaller Mess

*He chuckles* "If you find I'd love to hear it"

*Arrives at emma's room and knocks* "Emma? are you alright?"

she opens the door. she smiles, but she looks a little shaken "oh..hey boss"

"Do you want to talk emma?"

*Max is behind Akira, being quiet*

"....about?"

"Emma... I want to help."

"...really its.... its nothing"

*In other news, the daemon who stole a soul from laurence can feel a smothering presence, closing in on it* ~Boom... boom, earthshaker... Have you got a shell? Yes sir yes sir, three rounds of hell. One for the mutant... One for the traitor...~

Akira: "its not nothing if it makes you freeze up in a gunfight emma..."

"It's just... that thing. Reminded me of...something"

Akira: "Don't worry Emma... I'm thinking of ways to blow it to oblivion." *She reaches to her helmet, presses a button behind her ear, the helmet hisses, and the mask hinges forwards so she can take the thing off* "Forgot i was wearing it."

*The voice in the darkness continues, the swirling void of the warp obscured totally now by the creeping blackness.* ~And one for the daemon, running for shelter.~ *with that, he steps into the small circle of clarity in the centre of the maelstrom of coiling black*

"thanks... " *opens the door wider* "come in, sorry"

*Max walks in with Akira*

(May I recommend continuing with the Freeblade)

emma closes the door behind them

*where were we with them*

OOC: He was looking around trying to figure out what happened

*there aren't a lot of signs of a struggle...almost like someone cleaned up*

*He goes to the fridge, and checks if everything is still fresh*

Akira: "So... You want to talk about what... It was, that you thought of."

"Well.... You saw what that thing looked like didn't you?"

*yeah still fresh*

Max: *Stays silent*

--

G: "Recent..."
*He starts looking for information on the couple*

Akira: "Yeah, some... xeno thing"

Emma: well... more than one....thing that the haemonculus created looked...very similar. Just...brought up old stuff, ya know?

-------------
*very little, looks like stuff's been taken*

G: "Abductions, attempted murder..."
OOC: No signs of struggle right?

Akira: "Right... Shit."

Max: Fuck...

Emma: yeah.... I'm fine its just that specifically was a bit of a... trigger

*right*

G: Abducted...wonderful *he walks out*

Akira: "Well... It sounds harsh i know, but i'd still like you to sit out the next raid."

*doopy doo*

Emma:... if you say so boss.

Max: Would you like me to get in touch with a psychiatrist for you?

*He knocks on the next door and if they answer*
"Do you know your neighbours?"

Emma: a what?

*a young woman answrs the door* "yes?"

Max: A person who helps with mental problems. I had to see one for about a year to deal with my issues, I think it might help you get over your past.

-

G: *smile* "Did you know that couple specifically?" *gestures to the door he just left*

Akira: "We can't all be screwed in the head, some of you have to be sane."

Max: "Implying we're sane"

Akira: "True enough"

*ooooh daeeemonnnn. Stuff?*

Max: I'm just not as screwed in the head

Emma: oh. right.

Woman:... yeah I know them, why?

G: I believe they've been abducted or even killed

Woman:...what?!

G: The lock on their door has been destroyed, the house is empty and there is next to no sign of them having lived there, apart from food in the fridge and the normal giveaways that a couple reside there

*If for whatever reason she was to look down, she'd see him clutching the wound on his waist*

Akira: "Anyway, you need anything emma? We can probably get it."

Emma: stiff drink maybe?

Woman:... are you okay?

Max: *chuckles*

-

G: Got shot earlier

Akira: "That I can do." *reaches to her chest. then just kinda touches her suit* "No coat... Okay no i cant."

*Max just laughs*
"I get the feeling you're going to ask me to install a cup holder"

"No i'm just going to have to wear a chest rig... Slightly ruins the sleek look though."

Max: "Only slightly ruins it"

Woman:....um....

G: *describes his assailants* seen them around?

"once or twice... they're all over the city to be honest.... do you need help? with your wound?"

G: "If you wouldn't mind"
