PKA// On The Same Team {Anatra}

[Cameo {RIP Charlie}]

Vy Pryce
Age: Eighteen
District: Two

They make firing a gun and aiming perfectly appear so easily as the shots in chaos seem to never miss. Maybe it's only because it's their first time practicing but of course Vy takes it as seriously as being out in the actual field after her last low points in sparring. It's now vital that she makes up for it. Is it a need to do her best in the academy, or a newly found desire to show off Matthew? Either way her concentration doesn't slip for a second during her turn in the stall. At first they hardly make it on the sheet and land no where near the actual target. At least she hits the inside the outline of the body with half of them? It takes some getting used to as pulling the trigger sends a jolt that effects the initial aim. By the end she's able to hit closer to the middle. Let's just say she's happy to have someone with better aim on her team, and Tyren's not already an enemy towards her. There's a chance they could be friends.

If it was up to Vy she'd stay there until her hits got closer to targets on the vital body parts to hit. But of course lunch has to be called, and she knows better then to not follow orders. With a glance over at Tyren she gives a small smirk though it's hidden through their guard. Least now they'll have time to talk a little and figure out the best approach to whatever is about to come their way. A bit of planning, and he seems like the type of guy that'd agree on that. By the looks of it he' one of the people that are serious about being here, like Jeran, wanting to make a difference with this job opportunity. That's only from a their short first impressions and an innocent prediction.

A sandwich and water is the only thing given to them to fuel them for whatever's about to come. Though Vy's used to sitting alone, and almost goes off to isolate herself as usual, she keeps in mind that she now has a partner for the day. This will be a lot more interesting with someone on her side instead of an enemy. "You'd think they'd give more before sending us out." She comments in hopes to lighten the mood and start off the conversation smoothly. To her it's enough, but she does know how much males can consume. Plus the jitters of doing something more realistic to being a peacekeeper fills most of her stomach.

Because of the bad reputation she's already given herself for her roommates she gestures for Tyren to pick the spot, though she simply assumes they'll be eating together. "I figured we could exchange talents to figure out our best approach..." Vy's tone is a little questioning as she's not sure if he's up that. They're not in career mood where they need to keep their strategies hidden, but who knows if Tyren still thinks like that or if he was even a career before. With knowledge that he was in the pregames, Vy's pretty sure that he is though. "I like the idea of both of us getting high points." She shares her reasoning just incase he feels iffy about her offer. They're on the same team though, and despite not seeming like one she does know how to be a team player.

After a few turns each on the firing range, the call lets us know the time. We're due in for lunch, and my stomach agrees since I can feel it nipping me. The firing of the gun is like an amplified release of an arrow. In similar ways, it is the same. I'm projecting their death at them. Shooting whatever means necessary to get them on the floor, dead. Am I that cold? Maybe. Most likely. The firing makes the career in me come out. I don't admit the thrill of it to anything around me but the results that I get from that target board. A few in the critical places, a couple not on the board at all. Most somewhere on the body at least. I'm happy with that.

Since the call beckons us, we had best turn and stand-to. We get instructed, although the obviousness escapes me, to leave our ammo at the shooting range and to disable our weapons for now. I could have told a four year old that, and they'd still think I was being obvious.

After seeing Vy's performance, I can tell that she's aware right now. She's switched onto the situation, tuned into the same channel and frequency. This is exactly the kind of person I need at my back. I don't need pathetic relationships that have to be stretched and ripped into place, I need somebody who can calculate and work out the achievable goal, and execute it. Not that I am taking any kind of leadership here. After standing in the irritable queue for our food, which is meagre to say the least. "You'd think they'd give more before sending us out." She says as we walk near each other. Our helmets are off, and I am reminded as to what she looks like. Which is actually quite peculiar in regards to the strangeness of seeing her without the helmet on. "There's only a ration in the real battles." I tell her, as though I know every tactic the LTC has in his head. The truth is, I don't. I just run a lot of the simulations on the computers they have here. The technology simply fascinates me. Alex can never seem to get his head around the pincer movement.

"I figured we could exchange talents to figure out our best approach..." I nod at her, taking into my food. I take a moment to figure her out. There's nothing malicious behind what she is saying. There's no downside to giving her my strengths, unless by some random occurrence that next year we're both reaped. That's a stupid thought. "I like the idea of both of us getting high points." She shares her reasoning, and I nod again. "So do I. No point going it alone." I state the obvious to pass conversation, but I begin to explain my strengths. "I can sneak." I roll my eyes a little sarcastically because everybody seems to point this one out first. "I'm short so..." I pause. "I can shoot well, but that's not why we're here. We need to arrest them. Going through all of the procedures - calling the arrest and if they resist, execute the right maneuvers." I wait briefly to see if she agrees or not but I continue anyway. "See I think we should scrap that. Go in with a complete tactic. Show this trial that it has flaws. I mean, they've already told us they are armed."
I usually keep a little bit of paper in my pocket with my to-do list. Thankfully, there's nothing embarrassing on it so I take it out, with the little pencil that I have next to it. I quickly draw on the back what I mean.

"You go in like this, not alone but they won't know that." I show an arrow going in through the front door. "I'll come in straight after but I'll be low, and I'll take cover somewhere. That's when you call out for them like we've been taught. After that, they'll undoubtedly retaliate but you'll already be in cover because you know that they'll fight rather than come quietly." I smirk, thinking highly of my little plan. "That's when we'll go in, execute our little plan by taking them both out, because we know where they're hiding, yet they don't know where I or you are." I analyze the nature of her decision, whether she agrees or not. She may have input. She may disapprove of being the 'bait'. I know what I'm doing though, I think. So hopefully she has some trust.

"True." Vy agrees as Tyren relates their slim portion to the fact they'll have to ration while on actual missions. They're making it as real as possible and he's able to realize that quickly. Despite her lack of liking when someone's better then her, in this situation she doesn't mind. With the mindset of a career she has no clue what it takes to be a peacekeeper. They actually have rules and things to stand by where as being trained as a career is for the games, there's nothing to follow in the games when the only goal is to kill the other tributes. So if Tyren understands what's going on, she's going to listen to him without hesitation. He seems to be on top and paying lots of attention by his words. Let's see if it's true.

Things seem to go perfect after the agreement that they're both in it to do their best. The first thing Tyren can think of when it comes to his talents is being sneaky because of his small disposition for being a guy. Come to think of it he is only a bit taller then Vy, and she's used to guys towering over her. She's learned that the strongest surprisingly are the small ones as they feel more of a need to prove themselves. Apparently Tyren doesn't need to as he shows that he clearly knows his stuff while going repeating the basic things they need to go through. At least he reassures his strength in shooting, though he adds that it's about getting in the arrest and not firing. Sounds like he has a plan though, and at his pause Vy gives a nod of approval to keep going.

Instead of going in as everyone else probably will Tyren wants to scrap that idea and come up with a new plan. It's all setup as it's only a scenario to test them, and he's certain that it holds flaws. To be honest he's right, because if they go in as the rest typically will they'll simply be following a script. If they manage to confuse things up with a completely new plan, they may be able to outsmart them. Great way to earn points, plus Vy's unable to resist being a little rebellious. While nibbling on her food she scoots closer to observe the strategy her partner's smart enough to draw up.

"They'll probably be a back door right?" Vy questions as she returns the grin because this is actually a little fun. "If there is I think I should go through there, and call out the arrest. Might throw them off. And you can sneak through the front as they go to the back with the prediction of both of us being there?" Making her bait sounds just fine as she's better at close-combat then shooting anyways. If anything goes wrong Tyren won't be far. "Probably will attack once they realize I'm alone. You can come in and take out the other." Might as well mix in both of their plans and add in a bit of distraction. The fact that they're both on the same line of forming their own strategy is great though. This is going to be a great team after all.

[Anatra]

She seems accepting of my little plan, but she seems to be thinking on her toes herself, which I admire. I didn't expect this from the girl in the dorm, and I'm really glad I pushed that little opinion aside, at least for this. "They'll probably be a back door right?" I nod my head, a tone of surprise coming to my voice which I hope doesn't sound too condescending. "Yeah, that's right..." I confirm. "If there is I think I should go through there, and call out the arrest. Might throw them off. And you can sneak through the front as they go to the back with the prediction of both of us being there?" It would throw them off. It seems she's been at tactical practice as well, because that is exactly the pincer movement. Or at least a quick flank maneuver. I think she can handle herself close combat more than she can shooting, judging by what I've heard from Matt. If she can break a knee, that's all we'll need to be honest. As brutal as that sounds. "Probably will attack once they realize I'm alone. You can come in and take out the other." I nod to her, and I like the way she assumed she could take down at least one of them. "I like your style, Vy." I say, taking a drink of my water.

"We'll go with that, we'd best-" I'm cut off by another call on the announcement. I've literally only just finished my lunch as well. It's as though they were watching. But I know they wouldn't, or at least I'd have hoped. "First group of cadets, please report to your zone." They listed zones quickly but I only listened to ours. "You know the music, let's get going." I smile at her, helmet in hand. She's only a little shorter than me. I like being short, it makes people underestimate me. Though, I don't think the test is going to expect what we have in store for it.

Yet, I hope we aren't missing something important.

I get going, after waiting for Vy briefly. "I don't think they'll be expecting this. I can't wait to see the look on their faces." I tell her. This is not necessarily my rebellious side, but definitely a side that I rarely see. Career, most likely. Wanting to be the best, but this time it is as a team that I want to win. But who are we competing against? Alex and Adina? Matt and Jeran? Hardly. But I guess the betterment would be... satisfying. I'm not usually one for being arrogant or ruthless in my desires. But I think Vy is bringing that side out in me, literally by being present. Like a calling, I want to break the rules.

We're hardly breaking the rules, just bending them a little.

We get to the jeep that will take us to the house, I don't think we're expected to drive it, so I just hop in the back. I was right, because there's an unarmed peacekeeper in the front. I still don't put my helmet on. I have a suspicion that the criminals inside will have been tipped off about our locations. Perhaps through the helmets themselves, because they are the most tech-heavy. I ponder it on the car journey.

"I don't think we should wear these." I whisper to her, the peacekeeper in the front seems oblivious. "They might have trackers in them." I'm thinking way too out of the box. But... it is a smart observation if I am correct. Dangerous, though. What if one of us took a bullet to the head? We'd get so concussed. "Maybe it's too dangerous."

It's nice to know that they're able to cooperate, especially because it raises their chances of getting higher scores. Even if Vy could careless of what people think of her a little proud grin spreads across her face when Tyren agrees with the statement of liking her style. Getting along will probably be a big part of this, and being on the same page will be even more so. Before they have more of a chance to formulate any further lunch time is called off and she has to quickly consume the rest of her sandwich. She was too caught up in setting this up perfectly she completely forgot about that fact they won't be given them long if they're trying to make this like the real deal.

They stay quiet as the instructions are given, both smart enough to know that planning's primarily ending. Least a nice chunk is out of the way as they have their own secret set up. Something to throw these people off since it is all a scenario anyways. "Me to." Vy returns the smile as the double time it to where ever they're taking them next. This will either get them some nice points or closer eyes upon them on from their Commanders. Not like they're doing anything too bad, just showing their potential.

Right behind Tyren Vy jumps into the back of the jeep. Now the excitement really kicks in as she realizes that this is really happening. Before actually somewhere she always feels as though it's only talk, but as the row of abandon houses come into view it's clear they're really doing this. Getting nervous has never phased her as she replaces it with anything else. It's only a fight in the long run, and pain she's certainly mastered to deal with. From this distances she can see the bordered up windows, and yes back doors. Another small grin arrives as their plan's going good so far. So far she's even a bit comfortable with knowing that Tyren will have her back, after all their in it together for this one test.

Another idea arrives as they're pulling into the streets; to ditch the helmets. That's a bit of a shocker. Even though Tyren came up with the idea of fooling them a bit, he does seem like the type to follow book for the most part. Yet now he wants to leave behind their head safety with the predictions there's trackers in them. He could be very right though, and it may be giving the target an upper hand. "No lets do it." Vy agrees after he retaliates on it by saying it may be too dangerous. "Rubber bullets." She shrugs it off as she digs through her helmet because she's certain there's a walkie in it. "We need a way of communicating with each other though. Know a way to pull out the walkie part?" She asks with the hopes that his smart looks are true, because she's far from knowing about that stuff.

"Where the hell are your helmets Cadets?" One of the higher ranks question with a stern face of disapproval. It's probably not often that someone leaves behind part of their protection and communication system.

"Following orders, Sir." Vy answers coyly, lying's just too easy. With how chaotic it is with everyone running around to get all the cadets in ordered, he probably won't bother with checking. Plus it's they're mistake if it is was.

A chuckle of prediction this one choice will ruin them escapes as he doesn't bother arguing with the two cadets. "Get to where you should be." He orders before going off to lecture some other poor kid. Better not disobey orders, so Vy moves off to the house they're assigned to.

"Ready?" Vy gives a reassuring smile as she erases any worries of what may lay ahead. They're in control with their own little plan. After the approval from Tyren is given she begins making her way around to the back of the house.

[Anatra]

The jeep drives through the emptiness of the street, signs half worn and buildings crumbling. Anybody would have expected ghosts to start walking, because this looks like an apocalypse out there. Not necessarily the stuff of nightmares, but the kind of place that children would go as dares. Pot holes in the roads, the likes of which make the road bumpier than usual. I swear I see a face in one of the windows, but it either moved too fast for me to double take, or it wasn't there at all. If my eyes are starting to deceive me, I'd better think of my feet when we're in there.

"No lets do it." She agrees with me. After confirming that it isn't too dangerous, she suggests something else. "We need a way of communicating with each other though. Know a way to pull out the walkie part?" As a matter of fact I do. I remember Alex talking to me about something like it, and I think I could do it. It didn't look so hard when he was doing it. I look in the underneath of my helmet, where my head would go. There it is, the little compartment that can be pulled out. It is there so the walkie talkie doesn't interfere with comfort or protection. I unclip it, and bring the wires out. At the end of the wires rests a little microphone, but the wire can be unplugged as it is just an ordinary military walkie. "Great, here. Just flip it over and take it out." I tell her, wanting her to do it herself as not to have me do it wrong and be blamed later.

"Where the hell are your helmets Cadets?" I feel a bit of shock hit me because I wasn't expecting, nor did I anticipate, any kind of questioning. Vy completely handles it. Nice, dug us out of that one. Her quick talking is good for something.

She looks ready, so I arm my gun with the practice rounds. "Ready?" She asks me, looking eager. I step forward and open the gate. It creaks. "Ready." I whisper. "Radio in once you get into position. Radio again when you're ready to start." She goes to the back of the house as I give her my confirmation. I don't await hers as I get into my position. It is by the door, not in the house but on the porch. The windows are boarded so nobody can see in or out. Likely because they're expecting a visit from the front only. Well, we're mixing things up. This is no longer the same shit on a different day.

I put my ear to the wall, but can't hear anything. I didn't expect it. I can't even feel any heating coming from the house. It just adds to the realism of this place. Almost as though it actually is an abandoned house. Maybe people lived here? I shouldn't think of it. I just await her final confirmation. Then I'll go in once she's got them distracted. I feel anxious, nerves, but most of all adrenaline. I am ready to kick some ass in there. I can feel the success that is literally within my grasp.

As soon as Vy brings up the walkie idea and the need for help Tyren goes straight to work to figure the thing out. She couldn't be more grateful over getting paired with someone as serious about getting this done properly as she is. It doesn't even take him long to figure it out and point it out to her. Of course it's easier then it seems as only a clip needs to be pushed to get it out. With that she places it in her ear to make sure it's secure before they're exiting out of the vehicle. This should go great if they keep this up. Not even a higher rank can get in there way at this point as Vy's able to sly him off easily with everything going on so quickly.

Before they know it their set up at an abandoned home and Tyrne's creaking open the rusty gate. It all feels just to spooky. Why not set up the abandon homes to be more realistic? It's not like this situation will be happening often as people usually occupy nice houses. Guess they didn't feel like it, or maybe they want to make everything this erie. With approval from her partner to move on, Vy begins to sneak around to back going nice and steady as to not give away their plan. It'd be nearly pointless if they're whereabouts are known. "Testing?" Vy whispers as she travels, might as well see if their walkies are working now. Noise comes from the other line though, a nice relief in this situation.

"I'm at the backdoor." Vy informs with her back pressed against the wall next to the entrance. After confirmation she moves forward just to get the pleasant surprise of a locked door. "Damn it." She mumbles quietly before relaying the news. "Locked door, give me a minute." With that she searches around. Picking a lock is noting new to her but all of the materials to do so are no where around. Couple of bangs with the back of her gun is given to the knob until it finally hangs off. So much for hiding her position. Least after a hard push she gets through the door.

"I'm in." Of course the first thing to do is inform her partner of her progress. "Calling the arrest, are you in position?" She questions in a hushed voice, staying at the doorway before getting the signal to go further. "Peacekeepers are surrounding the household, come out and surrender with your hands above your head now!" Her gun stays aimed in front of her, ready for an sort of surprises. With her volume it must of echoed throughout the house, but no other sounds respond. Slowly she steps inside the household, looking in every which direction.

A light set of footsteps has Vy's eyes darting to her right as her feet automatically turns to it as well. "Spotted someone in the other room." It's weird being on a team, but she forces herself to relay the important information.

[Anatra]

The wind is subtle and eery. I don't like this place, but I really don't have the time needed to worry about it. Not that it would get me anywhere by doing so. "Testing?" I hear on the walkie. I didn't expect it to be so quiet but it was audible, thankfully. "Copy that." I say, like they do in the tapes and films. I say it with a bit of style, as though I was putting on the voice. "I'm at the backdoor." The temptation to make a joke, too high. "Bet you are." I roll my eyes at myself with a smile. "Copy that too." I confirm. "Damn it." She exclaims quietly. "What's up?" I almost expect her to reply with 'the sky', but maybe I should focus more on the task at hand.

"Locked door, give me a minute." She confirms to me, putting my brief worry at ease. The mission is so perfectly planned out that I feel a little careless. But, I concentrate myself now. I need to be as focused as a laser. Nothing can go wrong if I stay in tune. "I'm in."

Perfect. Now it begins. "Spotted someone in the other room." She says, after she'd called out the arrest. Now it's my turn. "Copy, moving in." I say with the needed professionalism for the trial. I grip the door handle and turn it to a squeak. I open it slowly, quietly, watching for any movement. I don't see anybody. That's the point, though. I'm relying on them going for Vy, so I keep low and quiet, moving to hide by the arm of a couch. Ahead of me is the hallway that leads into the kitchen, which is where the backdoor is, and if I'm aware correctly - Vy. "Call out again, then move to a vantage point." I instruct. I'm not exactly in a place to advise, but it is just that - advice.

[Cameo {RIP Charlie}]

It's impossible to hold back a soft laugh after Tyren's remark to Vy being at the back door. Being focused on the plans she wasn't even concentrating on her words until that second. With an eye roll she continues on. Now's probably not the best time for comedy, though it's good to know he's one of the few to actually use humor. As much as she'd love to continue with the jokes she ignores it, though her short laugh had to of given away her approval. Save it for later, time to concentrate. Even if they have a solid plan, who knows what they're about to walk into. The first obstacle erases the giggles as Vy has to give away her location while getting the door open. Least that was part of their plan in a way, the loud noise will certainly pull the two arrestees to her.

One person is clearly in the next room, probably what used to be the dinning room by the lack of a door separating them. A small shadow only reassures the faint footsteps she heard. Shouldn't they be hiding? Either way she's attracted to the noise though the sound of her partner makes her realize she's not suppose to just jump into anything. Who knows what's in there. So she keeps her back against the wall and her eyes continue to search around the room as she waits. Working as a team isn't to bad even though she's used to a normal fight on a mat or in the ring. This whole scenario's new to her, though it's sort of exciting.

Vantage Point? Maybe Vy should of concentrating more on her studies and vocabulary. Being book smart is exactly what she's not, and she's becomes baffled at the new orders. Call out again, and more to a vantage point. Tyren's probably going through their plan and talking about the point of Vy playing bait. Acting confused and appearing dumb she refuses to do though. "Copy that." She uses the quote he's repeated a couple of times already. Hopefully her guess is correct as she moves towards the noise of one of their targets. The other one can't be far behind.

"You're under arrest, surronder now and no one gets hurt!" Vy calls out, mainly directed to the movement in the other room. With the prediction whom ever's in there has their partner close by she continues to creep to that area, her gun not budging an inch from being aimed in front of her the entire time. Goal is to not fire if possible, less blood the better even if this is a set-up with rubber bullets. Speaking of as one flies before her as she's ready to turn the corner to gaze into the other room. Immediately she jolts back and pulls in her hand that was only inches away from getting a deep bruise.

"Well one's armed." Vy informs her partner and goes silent to hear if her guest will be moving in on her. Only silence though until a scuffle against the floor in the opposite direction grabs her attention. Before her eyes get a chance to focus on anyone, a shot's fire from that direction. So the bait tactic is working, that's great. With enemies on both side she's sort of cornered though she manages to slide into a large cubby where the fridge must of been before. "Scratch that, they're both armed." A small chuckle joins with her words as she relays what's going on to Tyren. "Bait thing worked, I think."

"Well one's armed." I hear a shot just before. Was she hit? I doubt it. She's tough, but not tough enough to not tell me about it. "Scratch that, they're both armed." She says almost a moment later. I hear shuffling about. I'm just hearing this stuff, and it's beyond that one door that is in front of me. Why am I even in cover? They're nowhere in sight. I come right out of it and go towards the door. I'm helmetless, as is she, but we can do this easy if we do it quick. "Moving to assist." I say through my comm.
A moment later I place a quiet hand on the door knob and turn it quickly.

Boom, I've already fired a shot, directly after opening the door. It must have hit his leg. Good, that's where I needed to aim for. If I can disable them, or at least one, Vy will be definitely safe and then we can go in for the arrest - not the kill. That's the aim of this exercise, anyway.

I close the door again, it's such a sly tactic. But as I close it, something clicks. A second later, the floor caves in. I'm taken with it, but it only makes me falls about half a meter down. I can easily get out, but it is a hinderance. "Stay safe, I just activated a trap, won't be a minute. Disabled one, I think." I quickly dismiss my walkie for a moment as I climb my way out of the hole I'm in. I dread to think what else is under here, but I have no time to think about it.

I'm not letting anything slow me down, I need to execute the plan. It has to be perfect. "Moving to assist, again." I say, some element of humor to my voice as though I was enjoying the challenge of an alternate plan. Thankfully, I've only been distracted for a good minute, so I'm back on my feet and this time I'm more wary about opening doors. I move quietly to the other door to the room, around a corner. If I turned another, I'd be where Vy is. They'll likely be confused by all the noise.

"Copy that." Vy notifies her comprehension to Tyren moving in now. There was a bit of hope that firearms wouldn't be used this much and her hand-to-hand combat would come in handy, but apparently not. The likely hood of criminals that are actually armed? Sounds rare with those type of weapons being impossible to get. Maybe they're only trying to prepare them for the worst though. Another gun fire startles Vy back to her full attention, but judging by the sounds it was probably from Tyren. With a peek around the corner it must of been him to as one of there targets slip behind the doorframe for cover once more.

"Good shot, because I'm doubting they're firing at each other." Her voice isn't as thrilled as it was before as she's wondering why they're not continuing with relaying everything. It's certainly not Vy's strong suit either as she's always been a one man show, but now they have to be a team. And as annoying as it is, that means sharing every move that's made. First time though, and her tone's not harsh due to that. After all it appeared that the one was gaining in on Vy herself, and the proper hit delayed that. By the looks of it he was shot in the leg to, even better.

There's an order from her teammate to stay safe after he disabled a trap and is not being held up a bit. Even before the message she could hear the rupture of something large collapsing. Luckily Tyren's voice indicates his safety before Vy even has a chance to ask. "A trap?" Her voice is unconvinced though she's fully aware that what he's saying is true. They're really going through a lot of effort to make this obstacle course contain the worst of the worst to what they may experience on the real field. "As long as you're okay..." A partner down is the last thing she needs as it'll probably ruin both of there scores for separating in the first place. Having their own mischievous plan raises the bars as everything has to go perfectly or they'll grades will be suffering. After the last test, Vy refuses to let that happen.

Staying in place is killing Vy though, especially after Tyren's already got a hit in. What if he gets them both and leaves her in this cubby with nothing? That's moroe embarrassing then Matthew winning their spar. "I'm going to check on the other criminal, they're only around the corner." Vy informs with a lack of question behind her words. It's time for her to have a little action. With that she slides from her hiding spot, pausing for a minute to see if the other one will show himself. Nothing though as she keeps her gun aimed to across the room where he scurried off, probably to calculating his damage. With the rubber bullets, it'll probably only be a deep bruise. Maybe enough to keep him hidden for a minute or two though.

With her gun leading in front of her she slowly creeps around another corner. If her ears' work as well as they usually do, the other target should be in here. There's been no sign of an exit, but she wasn't even positive that a person resides in here currently. Could of been a shadow of a curtain, or distracting noise to make her think so. It's a pure mistake that she encounters though as there's no possible way such a rounded face should have any business being here.

"Sweetie, why are you here?" All Vy's able to picture is Brooklyn as she sees a youngster standing in the corner with her hands trembling behind her back. A bit shorter then her, so not to young, but by her innocent face and bright eyes she has the appearance of a baby. "Are you okay?" Nothing comes from the girl as she doesn't budge an inch. Maybe she had run away and hid in these houses without the knowledge that they'd be use to set-ups? Poor thing. With protection mood kicking in she peers around to gaze through the open doorframes to where the injured target crept behind. No signs of him, only one of those rubber bullets fly past Vy's vision.

"Crap." Vy dodges back to the kitchen without even looking back at the one to appears so young. It had to of been her, that little devil. Now Vy's heart is racing with adrenalin as she once again presses her back up against a wall. The one Tyren shot decides to show another appearance as he dodges around his security wall with no worries to how many bullets he fires. And the academy's telling the cadets to only fire at the last resort, then presenting them with this. How rude. Least Vy's already on her tippy-toes after the scare from the little blonde. She fires them back at him to scare him back into his safety. "They put a frakin little girl as a criminal, is that even legal?" Just a few moments ago Vy was a little pissed with not getting the message her partner got in a nice hit, she can't be hypocrite.

Anything is be expected when going into these scenarios. After all in the real world who knows what they'll be facing at certain points. If anything dealing with minors will be a regular occurrence as they tend to be more careless about getting into trouble. From experience Vy can relate as she's encountered a few keepers in her past. Luckily hardly anything ever came out of them, but her old friends on the other hand have been detained several times. Why a little girl though? Sure anything's possible, but the likely hood of someone so innocent being behind a large crime seems rare. The academy is aware of more of everything, probably even know about her true relations with Brooklyn, and is now testing her out for her weaknesses. Ignore the youthful face, because it's time to rack in some points.

Being the closest one to the young armed criminal, of course Vy's given the responsibility of handling her as Tyren's right around the corner from the other one. How was she suppose to move in on someone that appears to be thirteen? If only the firearms weren't involved because that's the truly nerve-wracking part. Even if this is only a set-up with rubber bullets, Vy's unable to pull herself around to firing at the youngster. "Got it." She still allows for the logical plan with a sigh. As Tyren moves out for a different approach she turns the corner slightly to take a peek at her opponent. An evil grin graces the lips of the innocent face, her gun pointed directly at Vy as if she was expected to reappear in such manner. Just as the stubby finger pulls the trigger, Vy pulls back to her hiding spot. So this is going to be a challenge after all.

"I mentioned the rugrat's armed right?" Vy feels the need to inform as silence primarily fills the air. An occasional creek on unstable flooring can be heard, or a slight whisper that lasts no more then a second. Why's there a whisper? Even after the clear indication that her reappearance is being awaited for, she turns the corner again to gaze into the room. How the hell did the dude get in here? He didn't walk through the kitchen, and going around would have him running into Tyren. These criminals know their environment better for the most part though, and he's found a way. With the lack of more gunfire he probably didn't run into Tyren, which is a good sign that Vy's partner is save. Just as she's considering such his voice comes through the walkie as he's ready to execute, and possibly even finish, this mission.

"Probably together." Vy throws in a short joke to lighten the mood a little. Maybe this isn't the time, but after witnessing who they're up against, it feels needed. "We need to unarm the girl, so maybe not the same time actually." Her voice remains very hushed as to not even allow the criminals knowledge that they're so close. The mic is pushed closer to her mouth as she her other hand is kept constantly occupied with an aimed gun. By tomorrow her left arm's going to be jello with her lack of setting it down. "You're turn to distract and I'll come in around the little one? Disable her gun and get her in a nice grasp. Maybe the other one will give-up if there suppose to be some sort of father-daughter criminals crap."

"I mentioned the rugrat's armed right?" Rugrat. Where does she come up with these names? They're priceless.

No, they're Pryceless...

Moving on.
Literally, as well. Because now I'm in position by the slightly ajar door. I ask her how she would like to execute the mission from here. "Probably together." She answers, and a little roll of my eyes comes forth. Mainly because I'm concentrated now, I don't need any comments. This is the heat of the moment and I'm ready to pounce on the criminals and arrest them, getting my points. "We need to unarm the girl, so maybe not the same time actually." There comes her more serious response which settles me. Good, my turn then, I think. A moment later she confirms it. "You're turn to distract and I'll come in around the little one? Disable her gun and get her in a nice grasp. Maybe the other one will give-up if there suppose to be some sort of father-daughter criminals crap." Her plan seems weak, but I don't want to question it. We're relying on the basis that he is in some kind of connection with the younger one. Or apparent younger one. I'm backing it, for now. Though a change of plan couldn't come sooner.

"Distraction. Got it. Executing." I inform her. My distraction is going to the front door quickly. I'm not sure what she meant about her plan, now that I think of it. If I am to distract, the one closest to the door will probably want to investigate. I slam it shut and remain in the room, I get behind the couch that I had took cover behind during the first minute of the trial and await an appearance.

Just like that. This was so simple. No bullets, and I'll probably get bonus points. I dash out, staying low and he has his gun out. He doesn't seem too aware but before long I'm already whacking the gun from his hand, but it goes off right in my face. The bullet, I don't know where that went, but I can safely say I can't feel anything painful. I give him a punch to the face because he's clearly hostile and he tries to tackle me. He takes my shortness to the floor and with a crack of the floorboards, I roll over him. I'm on top of him securely now and I grab his hands. He's still resisting. They really make these things realistic.

I have his wrists in each hand but there is no way to get the cuffs on him without turning him on his back. "Desist, or you'll be punished." I tell him. "Desist." I repeat as he continues to struggle. He doesn't believe me... That's funny. I take an elbow to his face, keeping a hold of both wrists. "How about now?" He looks dazed and his resistance is lessened to a stop. "Good." I inform him. "Got one." I say down the comm to Vy. I turn him over and tighten the cuffs on his wrists.

Maybe this whole peacekeeper thing wouldn't be too bad. Not being able to decide on the criminal one goes after sort of sucks, but in the long run it is keeping the district safe and a nice & steady income. Plus going on missions sounds a lot more exciting then a boring job, and the danger is the largest part about that. It's nearly identical to being a career with all the taking orders and training, except now teams are involve. Over time she may be able to pull herself around to being less of an ass, though never completely. After all this scenario's going pretty good so far, though the innocent face is a bit disturb. Anything can happen apparently.

A bit of commotion erupts to inform Vy that the distraction's going as planned. By the sounds of it Tyren must have one of them. Hopefully the girl, but probably not on account her ears are saying it's getting a little violent. Perfect time to move in though. With that knowledge she slides open the door slowly to gaze into the room where the female's moving in slowly to help her friend. Probably scooting the room before hand in attempt to find the other Cadet? As quietly as possible to creeks into the room, thankful that the chaos of the fight is fading out her footsteps.

The gun hangs at her side though there's still a good grip on it. Must be young, because one would think they'd train them better then this, give the Cadets a real challenge. It's difficult to plan exactly everything, but this is all turning out perfectly as her light eyes stay fixed upon the fight and what's on around that room. In one swift movement Vy snaps the gun away from her petite hand and points both at the kid. Clearly looks can be deceiving because earlier this girl was going mad with the bullets.

Of course it's never that easy as another gun is pulled from her stubby self, and a gun-point off occur. "Two against one hun, and I'm not afraid to hurt that pretty little face of yours." Least Vy's equipped with one in both of her hands while the criminal's stuck with only a small handgun she probably had stored in her back pocket. Not even a budge occurs as if this fight would be far from fair. For the first time ever Vy actually holds the height as she gazes down upon to squirt. With one aimed directly for her uses her other to slam the gun out of her opponent's tiny hand. A bullet still fires but it hardly grazes her arm as it's directed elsewhere.

"Me to." Vy replies back with good news as well before turning her full attention over to completing the arrest. "Turn the hell around and keep your hands up." It's nice to finally be the one giving orders, even if it is towards the criminal. The handcuff's are secured around the scrawny wrists, and Vy gives a nudge to move forward so they can join her teammate.
