10/12/18, Go for the Gold
Target: La Croix Security Armored Car
Objective: Steal the target's cargo of gold.
Difficulty: Average
Background: :3 is short on cash after buying up basically every power plant, subs-station, and light pole in the greater La Croix metropolitan area, and before it can make progress on the "water" part of "water and power", it needs to make some red numbers black again. According to Rico, this will be a chance to kill two birds with one stone, as :3 is about to begin an all-out war against La Croix Security, inc., the city's private police force. According to :3 spies within the nation's central bank, a large amount of gold bullion from the National Reserve Bank in La Croix is about to be moved to the one in San Pellegrino, and the TCCB has contracted with LCS to carry out and secure the shipment. The cash value of the gold itself is not insignificant, but Rico hints that the real objective is the damage its loss will do to La Croix Security.

Thanks to their spies within the nation's banking system, :3 knows the exact route of the late-night shipment. LCS is banking (hur) on secrecy, and so the gold is being moved in a single armored truck with no other escort vehicles. Touko runs the op remotely while Rico leads from the front. On this mission, he brings Alex, Anya, Benji, Hibiki, Cecily, Iris, Tanya, Kira, and Shaundi. Rayna is to pilot the helicopter during the critical extraction phase.

The plan is simple enough. The Rico and his "harem" lay out a spike strip which catches the LCS armored car. The car is basically just an armored truck, and not any kind of combat vehicle, but the first complication arrises when the truck's driver tries to just keep going after losing all four tires. He plows into Kira, running her over and killing her more-or-less instantly. The truck crashes into an empty storefront after that, but it's not long before a squad of LCS trooper girls come spilling out of the back of the car!

Alex quickly guns down four of them, but not before one of the enemy zakos shoots Benji right in the crotch. He goes down howling and cutching at his permanently ruined junk. Iris, Shaundi, and Hibiki each claim another kill, but Tanya takes a full burst of gunfire. One round hits her in the belly, the other two get her in the chest. She drops and manages to crawl away, moaning and coughing, but she's finished and she knows it.

One of the two remaining LCS girls tosses a hand grenade. Cecily sees this and warns everyone, enabling them to dive for cover before the grenade goes off. Everyone but Benji, who couldn't crawl away fast enough. His body (what remains of it) is sent flying away in the explosion. Alex and Anya finish the last two zakos. Alex guns down her target while Anya slams hers head-first into the side of the armored car.

Shaundi avenges her sister (and Kira, for that matter), by stabbing the driver to death while the others quickly load the gold onto a pallete suspended from the helicopter by a net. It's a tight fit, coming down in the intersection, but Rayna manages it fairly well. As soon as the gold is secured, the Chapter (minus Tanya, who knows she's doomed and refuses a medevac) gets into the gunship with their prize in tow and Rayna flies them all away.

2: Anya (18, F): Average Martial Artist (Fine)
3: Benji (18, M): Incompetent Trooper (Dead)
4: Hibiki (19, F): Average Martial Artist (Fine)
5: Cecily (23, F): Average Ninja (Fine)

8: Kira (20, F): Incompetent Trooper (Dead)
9: Shaundi (0, F): Average Trooper (Fine)

10: Rayna (18, F): Average Pilot (Fine)

Final Result: Success. What more is there to say? :3 is richer, and at the expense of its enemy LCS. Three members are considered to be acceptable losses. The survivors party back at the hideout.

Dispatch from Regional: "Cha-ching! Wow! Great job, Rico! Great job, all y'all! It might be just a drop in the bucket, but every little bit helps, amirite? LCS is in the shit now, haha!"

 

[trigger]

Wow, Iris made it. I'm genuinely surprised. :)

 

[Severity]

Oh no. Benji. How could this happen. What an unforeseen tragedy. The world truly is a better worse place without him.

 

[Zamaron1]

Oh no. Benji. How could this happen. What an unforeseen tragedy. The world truly is a better worse place without him.

danm, brutal way to die for Benji, first he gets shot in the crotch which injures him, then when one of the enemies throws a grenade at the group, he can't get out of the way cause of the pain n his crotch and gets blown up.

Kayla Hensley
Age: 19
Incompetent trooper
A girl who, her whole life, thought the world owed her something. She always expected the best foods, the nicest cloths, and the cutest boys to just fall in her lap, and got rather angry and eventually violent when other people had it better than her. She joined :3 primarily to hurt people that she thinks have a better life then her that they don't deserve, which includes anyone with stable finances, a decent relationship, and a decent sense of style. She's just not able to comprehend that maybe, just maybe, she doesn't deserve these things or needs to work towards them.

Spoiler: Kisekae

Spoiler: Fate

In her time at :3, she's going to be completely chewed up. Repeatably humiliated, debased, and degraded, she eventually quits with a much better understanding of her standing in the world. Don't kill her, but embarrass her at every opportunity.

Cecily: Yuck. I've got some Benji still on my top. That's what I get for wearing white. I sure hope man meat washes out.

 

[Tsukachan]

Even without Kaede's assistance, Hibiki's already strong enough to take on the enemy zakos. Great one!!

Hoping to see all three (Kaede, Hibiki and Mukuro) on the next post

Cecily: Yuck. I've got some Benji still on my top. That's what I get for wearing white. I sure hope man meat washes out.

Eve: Don't you think that's a little insensitive?

Emi*Looking up from a book*: Did you ever speak to Benji?

Eve: Well, no actually... Have you?

Emi: Well... No. ...But I've heard him ramble, and trust me, he had it coming.

Spoiler: Kira's Fate

Kira hid by the roadside with the rest of her squad, waiting for the LCS truck to fall right into their trap. She wasn't sure how well this whole plan would work, but she tried not to think about it too hard. She left the thinking up to her Rico and her superiors. All Kira cared about was finishing this stupid mission, getting paid and scoring some drugs. Maybe she'd even convince one of the girls to spend some quality time with-

Kira was so lost in her thoughts that she didn't even notice the truck had popped it's wheels until it was too late. The loud jolting noise brought her back to reality, as the truck veered off course and headed straight towards her. Kira only had time to let out a terrified scream before the truck ran over her. Kira's internal organs were obliterated, along with the bones in her body completely broken.

Her ruined and mangled corpse was left by the roadside, along with the dead LCS guards and what remained of Tanya and Benji. Later on when authorities would arrive, they'd clean the place up, giving care to the deceased LCS guards. As for Kira and the rest, their bodies would be unceremoniously stacked inside a corpse truck until they could be identified. They'd then be dumped in an unmarked mass grave. Kira's family would forget about her, as would the rest of her :3 comrades.

Let's try again!

Name: May
Age: 30
Type: Average Martial Artist

Spoiler: May

Physical appearance:

Story: May is an illegal immigrant who was smuggled into the country along with her two little sisters by :3. In order to pay the costs for bringing them over, May is forced into working for their organization. She was a local gangster back in her home country, where she committed crime in order to earn money to raise her two smaller sisters. May loves her two sisters, and is a very maternal and caring person as a result of needing to raise them. She can be tough, but she cares about her fellow :3 soldiers, and feels she should protect them as well as she's older than most of them. May wants to earn enough money to pay :3 for the smuggling costs, and then get out as soon as possible.

Let's say that...if May can complete 12 missions and survive, she'll be able to leave. Otherwise, I'm sure something terrible will happen to her sisters!

 

[Severity]

May is an illegal Chinese immigrant

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this an alternate universe without a specific country called China?

 

[Kayfabe]

Meh, it's fine. I wrote Jeanette like a bad French stereotype, despite there not necessarily being a "France" per se. The important thing is that May's a foreigner, undocumented, and that she's from a country where most people look and speak something we would recognize as Chinese. It's like how in fantasy stories you'll have places that are like, "Look, it's basically Venice, okay?" Or Ace Combat, except for the part where you have officially licensed real-world planes.

Good catch haha. Just edited now

Next up: Arcadia Sternett!

Name: Arcadia Sternett
Age: 25
Role: Average Trooper

Spoiler: Arcadia in Kisekae

Story: An extremely combative person, Arcadia killed a grade school teacher she disliked at age 11. While imprisoned, she was extremely violent, often mauling other prisoners and attacking guards. This led her to solitary, where she was confined almost constantly for the next 14 years, until she managed to escape during a riot. On the run, she figured that :3 would be an employer that allowed her to do pretty much what she liked, but without the annoying time spent in solitary. Of course, she's a bit less aggressive now, but only in that she will be openly hostile towards a person rather than pretending to tolerate them before attacking them.

Spoiler: Fate

I'd like her to remain alive and capable of coherent thought, but aside from that go wild.

10/15/18, Warehouse Defense
Target: :3 Weapons Depot, La Croix Port District
Objective 1: Secure the Area
Objective 2: Complete the Shipment
Background: In preparation for its open war against LCS, :3 is moving even more weapons and equipment into the city. The new hardware is being kept at a warehouse in the Port District, not far from the La Croix chapter's HQ. LCS got wind of these transfers and has put the entire harbor on lockdown, but Regional wants to make one last drop. Using the helicopter, the cargo is to be extracted from a :3 freighter anchored in international waters and airlifted to the warehouse. Despite the helicpoter's stealth capabilities, it is very likely that LCS or one of their buddies in the Guild will try to interfere.

Rayna and Flavia handle the airlift. Flavia operates the chopper's external arm-crane-winch assembly while Rayna does the actual flying. Shaundi and Kayla ride in the helicopter. They're armed with shoulder-fired missile launchers in case the actual military gets involved.

Mukuro is put in charge of security on the ground (Rico is having a meeting with other :3 executives on the freighter). Dan, Cecily, Arcadia, Tom, and Sharona are with her. It doesn't take long before trouble to start, although :3 isn't aware of it immediately.

Expecting more of a loud frontal assault and not another solo infiltration, Cecily is taken completely by surprise. She's getting a drink from a water fountain when Kit Kat sneaks up from behind and smashes her face down into it.
Kit disappears back into the shadows, but the noise from Cecily's KO attracts Dan and Sharona. Kit knocks Dan out with a swift high kick to the back of the head and springs onto Sharona's shoulders. For a kid, Kit Kat has surprisingly powerful legs, legs that are wrapped around Sharona's throat. Sharona isn't able to get the girl off, and she isn't able to call for help. She blacks out, with Kit dismounting just before she hits the floor.

Shortly after that, and unrelated to anything Kit Kat is doing in the warehouse below, Rayna hits an air pocket or something and Kayla is sent tumbling out of the helicopter. Shaundi manages to save Kayla's missile launcher, but the straps weren't fastened and Kayla falls out anyway. Fortunately, the helicopter was over water at the time, and not very high, so Kayla only suffers a few broken bones. Rayna brings the helicopter lower so Shaundi can jump into the harbor and rescue Kayla.

This provides Kit Kat with the distraction she needs. Mukuro is watching this all through a pair of binoculars while Kit Kat runs up behind her. Mukuro isn't alone, however. Arcadia and Tom move to block Kit's path, but Kit sends out her electric whip. Tom and Arcadia are wrapped up together and shocked into unconsciousness, but Kit abandons her whip after that. Mukuro is on her now!

Kit Kat and Mukuro fight hand to hand for almost four minutes. Rayna brings the gunship in, and illuminates the battle with the searchlight, but neither she nor Shaundi can get a good bead on Kit. Not without also hitting Mukuro, at least.

Mukuro is exhausted, but Kit is the first to throw in the towel. "You're pretty good, but I'll kick your ass next time!" Kit disappears into a blinding flash and cloud of smoke. The operation is saved.

Ute approaches Rayna and asks her a question -
"Hey, could I co-pilot a little more? I've been sitting at base for the last few missions, and while it's nice to not fear for my life to get a paycheck, it's also kinda boring."

 

[Gunsmith12]

is there a difference between incompetent and unlucky? I assumed they were interchangeable. Also, is it possible to pin posts? If so, we should pin one with all of the names and fates so far, to avoid name duplicates.

Rayna, rather shaken by nearly killing someone with her mistake, is glad to. She's still not entirely sure if this job is for her, especially with all the time away from her sister.

Of course, she doesn't tell Ute all that. She just nods quietly and welcomes Ute as her co-pilot.

Almost 10 days late, but better late than never, right? IRL has been kicking my ass, but here. Because I love you guys: an update.

is there a difference between incompetent and unlucky? I assumed they were interchangeable. Also, is it possible to pin posts? If so, we should pin one with all of the names and fates so far, to avoid name duplicates.

It depends. They're interchangeable in the sense that if the active team takes damage, Incompetent/Unlucky zakos will be the first to go. The difference will be in how I write it. Incompetent zakos can generally be blamed for their failures (it was her own damn fault), whereas Unlucky zakos were kissed by a witch as a baby or something. Depending on how creative I'm not, the difference may not be noticeable.

Also, don't worry about duplicate names so much. If it ever happens again, I'll list them with their last initial.

10/15/18 (Part 2), Blood on the Water
Target: :3 Freighter
Objective 1: Defend the Freighter
Objective 2 (Optional): Eliminate the Attackers
Background: Kit Kat's attack on the warehouse was just a diversion. The Guild of Good Intentions has launched a surprise attack on the :3 freighter anchored in international waters. Fortunately, they're trying to capture the ship's passengers and cargo intact. This is fortunate because they're not just launching torpedoes at it from a safe distance. Instead, the Guild is swarming the ship with its amphibious, speargun-toting Frog Girls! Rico and his security detail were on the ship already, and the gunship is returning as fast as it can. But will they be able to get there in time? Can the defenders hold out long enough? Let's find out!

Kaede is in command of Rico's security detail. Rico whines that he can take care of himself, and while this is probably true, Kaede's job is to protect his body and not his ego. She literally carries him to the ship's panic room.

The surprise attack is devastating. Eve and Jess were supposed to be on lookout at opposite ends of the ship, but the pair are caught with their pants down... literally. They were having sex when the first of the Guild Frogs made it up to the deck. Both of them were standing up, with Eve holding Jess against the wall. The pair die in each other's arms, nailed together and to the wall, a single harpoon piercing both of their middles.

Their dying screams alert the other guards, but not before spears are sent flying into Anya, Iris, and Viola. Anya and Viola both get spears in the guts, but Iris gets it in the throat. Viola was near the edge and pitches over and into the ocean. The other two slip, fall, and die in spreading pools of their own hot blood.

Luna is alone in the cabin. She's caught completely unaware as a Guild frog sneaks up behind her and slits her throat. Luna barely has time to process what happened before she blacks out and eventually dies.

With Rico safely in the panic room, Kaede leads a counterattack, together with Aayla and Hibiki. Kaede and Hibiki work on clearing the deck. Kaede kills 15 Guild Frogs with her bare hands. Hibiki slays eight of the wetsuit-wearing assassin girls. Aayla, armed with a light machinegun, focuses on preventing more Frogs from boarding the ship. She kills at least six that she can count, and her suppressing fire keeps who knows how many more from getting onto the ship.

Things finally turn in :3's favor when Rayna and Flavia arrive with the gunship. It's a target-rich environment, and the two use the gunship's weapons to sink 8 Guild boats. They alone kill at least 22 Frogs. After making this pass, they fly in low enough to let Mukuro, Shaundi, Dan, Cecily, Arcadia, Tom, and Sharona repel down and onto the deck of the ship. Everyone makes it without incident. Everyone but Sharona, who miscalculates and falls into the ocean.

The relief team is able to successfully secure the deck, but Shaundi and Cecily are killed in the process. Shaundi goes down with a spear in her guts, but Cecily takes hers right in the head. She never even knew what hit her.

The 21 remaining Guild Frogs are routed. They dive into the ocean and swim away. There's no escape for them, however, as Ute has finally arrived in the Chapter's new fighter sub (she had to come all the way here from the hideout). It's a small submersible with rapid-fire spearguns and a single small torpedo launcher. Perfect for a situation like this. She uses both to turn the water red. None of the Guild Frogs escape her wrath, and she sinks the ship they came in on for good measure.

18: Tom (19, M): Average Trooper (Fine)
19: Kayla (19, F): Incompetent Trooper (Injured)
20: Sharona (22, F): Unlucky Martial Artist (KO)

Final Result: Success. The ship and its cargo are saved, and while the Chapter got its nose bloodied, the night was an absolute disaster for the GGI. They'll be licking their wounds for a while, most likely. Now's the perfect time to move on their buddies, LCS.

Dispatch from Regional: "OH MY GOD are you guys okay!? You had us worried for a second there! Looks like that helicopter and that submarine were worth it after all. Rico is in deep shit for falling for such a stupid trap, but not you guys. You guys are heroes. You didn't hear it from me, but Global has got their eyes on you. As soon as this business in La Croix is settled, you guys'll be out of that shithole country!"

How Humiliating! Rip Jess :D

Spoiler: Jess's fate (writing)

Jess wracked her brain, it had ben how long since she'd been fucked this good.

"Ugh god your amazing," She moaned,

Eve responded by holding her closer and thrusting even faster, lord knows where she found the strap-on but Jess sure wasn't complaining.

"GoD, I'm So cLOSE! Deeper! Deeper!"

The door slammed open and before she even had a chance to react she felt the unnatural metallic feel of something deep inside her navel.

Eve twitched, pinned to Jess's slim figure who was in turn pinned to the wall.

Jess, Looked down unable to fully assess the wound.

"AAEEEEIII" she yelled, struggling to break free.

But it was too late, in a few moments, everything went black for her as well.
