I've been told that someone named John Mandrake was the head of the protection squad up until recently around here. And also that I should contact a person that goes by the name of Alphonse Elric for any further details in regards to that. Does anybody know where I could find them?

Also, Hope, do you know where Vanille is? She was supposed to meet me at the clinic, but she never got there, and I couldn't get in contact with her ever since.

[That didn't sound good. Now the question was whether she simply disappeared, like people tended to do around here, or...]

Wasn't she fighting together with you?

[She looks away for a moment, trying to analyze the situation.]

What are the chances that she went back home?

[Maybe it's a futile question, but Light wants to calm Hope down somehow.]

I... I've seen this happen before, b-but... but it was d-different.

[ So much for staying calm. Helpless, he hides his face in his hands. ]

... She's gone. Vanille is gone.

[That's what she feared. But there wasn't much they could do about that now, was there?]

Hope, look at me.

[She needed to calm him down. Hope has been here for three months, so she can only imagine what he was going through and why he was so torn right now.]

I'm right here, alright? And no matter what happens, I won't leave you. I promise.

[She wasn't sure if she could keep that promise, but still.]

If we ever leave this place, we do it together.

Yes, I'd like us to stay more organized in case something like the last attack were to happen again.

Are you part of the squad?

A gunblade. We could sparr together sometime, then.

To put it simply, it's a combination of a sword and a gun. But I won't shoot with it, just to be fair.

[A nod.]

It's set, then. Once my wounds heal for good, I'll let you know. I could use some exercise after staying in the clinic for so long.

Al, then. [She nods.] Alright. [She'll remember it, but it's a habit of hers to be formal around people, probably because of the fact that...]

I used to be a soldier back in my world. I know my way around with a gunblade. I also used to be good in magic, but unfortunately, I lost the ability to use it entirely.

I'm currently staying in a house in the north-eastern part of the city.

al_truism: (Sigh)
From: [personal profile] al_truism
[He nods, understanding that soldier mentality.]

I see. Well -- the issue here is that Mandrake used to be in charge of the squad, until this recent event. I have the information and notes he had, but leadership has only fallen to me by default.

I can give you assignments and put you into contact with the squad there, but it will be a bit disorganized before we figure out how to handle this. Forgive me.

From: [identity profile] light-blinded.livejournal.com
Does that mean that we have lost him in battle?

I'd appreciate that.

Also, I could help you with the whole organization if you would want me to. I've heard that the recent attack was a first around here, but that's moreso the reason we should stay on our guards and get a grip on everything as fast as possible. We should be prepared in case something like that were to ever happen again.

al_truism: (Breathe Easier)
From: [personal profile] al_truism
In a way. The short version is that this will take some time to sort out.

I would appreciate any offer to help with organization and planning, though it takes a bit to earn the trust of the citizenry. The longer we know you and the more you prove yourself to care for the welfare of the people of this city, the more you'll be entrusted with.

Despite the events, the protection squad held together well during this past event, but you're correct. We will stay on our guard.

From: [identity profile] light-blinded.livejournal.com
That's more than understandable. I'm actually glad to hear that you wouldn't welcome a stranger into the ranks that easily.

[Things were looking good.]

I'll try my best to be of assistance, Al, Sir. I'll be on standby for any further orders.

Sure, if you don't mind.
