An Off-the-Record Request [LLGD Initiation]
« on: February 10, 2018, 02:03:59 PM »
Lissa slammed open the door to her team's dorm room with such enthusiasm that she knocked a can of writing utensils off of the nearby desk. She dashed into the center of the room before performing a quick spin and flourish to grab everyone's attention, a beaming and deeply dimpled smile across her face from ear to ear. "Hey, hey! Guess what?" She looked around the room to make sure everyone was listening before continuing. "I just signed us up for a mission! A real one!"

--

Professor Crystal Evermore let out a resigned sigh she had been holding in since the bubbly youth first entered her office. Beggars can't be choosers, she supposed. Still, what was the headmaster thinking, choosing a wild and irresponsible girl like her to lead a team?

Not that it mattered. If worst came to worst, Crystal could handle this mission singlehandedly. She only needed to make it official so she would have an excuse to leave the academy. She retrieved the info that girl had left her... Lissa Lime of team LLGD. Much to her dismay, it seemed that first letter "L" did not, in fact, refer to Lissa. Their leader was, in fact, named Leona... What a careless mistake, one that Crystal mentally scolded herself for making. With some hesitation, however, she decided it was worth bending the rules just this once. After all, the four of them wouldn't be in any real danger. With her approval, team LLGD was good to go on their mission.

Leon’s attention was swiftly taken away from her embroidery by Lisa’s exuberant entrance. Leona was always enthralled with Lisa’s antics. She wished she had the guts to do some of the things Lisa did. She smiled with anticipation as Lisa spun and did the flourish, that is until she told them what she had done.

I really wish you would have asked me first. I am the leader after all. She said with a pout.

Gray. who happened to be sitting at the desk that was hit by the door working on (and horribly failing) some assigned classwork jumped from his seat as Lissa burst in. "WHAT THE HELL!" He turned towards Lissa as she was spinning and showing off waiting, slightly annoyed for an explanation as to the disturbance. Then he got his explanation. "What? How did you-? Why would they?" Gray stumbled over his words as all the questions about how this could occur flooded into his thoughts until they all came out at once in one phrase he found himself using a lot around his new teammates. "What the fuck!"

It was a normal day in the life of team LLGD. Gray was failing to complete any classwork--he fully sympathised with him--as usual, Leona was stitching something that he couldn't be bothered to peek an extra two inches to clarify what it was, and even Lissa banging the door open and eliciting a string of mumbled jargon from Gray didn't faze him too much. Until she revealed 'what'.

Graham swung himself from his lounging position on his bed to having his legs on the floor. "Oh, a real mission? Such a shame if we got a fake mission, wouldn't it?" He spoke in his usual sarcastic drawl. "So tell me, 'leader', what's this mission about?"

Lissa tilted her head and pouted at the response by her teammates. "You guys could be at least a little happy, you know. Most teams don't get a proper mission this early on!" Swiftly moving towards her desk, Lissa removed her bag from her back and slung it over the chair. From the bag, she pulled a sheet of paper and showed it off around the room. "This is my copy of the mission details Ms. Evermore gave me. Take a look! Seems pretty fun, right?"

On the paper was plain text formally outlining the specifics of the task at hand. As was Crystal's style, not an inch of the paper was wasted on superfluous information or fancy formatting.
Student Mission
The following task is approved to be carried out under the supervision of Professor Crystal Evermore, who will be accountable for her students' safety until either a report of mission completion is received or the team is otherwise officially removed from the mission and returned to Beacon Academy.
This task is the sole responsibility of team LLGD (Lissa Lime, Leona Koningsblauw, Gray Saggio, and Graham Dylandy) and their supervising professor. Outside parties are prohibited from interfering unless explicitly instructed to do so. Any unauthorized interference by Beacon-affiliated individuals may be punished at the discretion of the Academy.

Objective Summary:
A group of nomads was cornered by Grimm in the ruins of Mountain Glenn. They have managed to find shelter and relative security in a building near the southern limit of the settlement for the time being, but it is uncertain how long the structure will remain secure. The student team is tasked with evacuating the nomads and destroying any Grimm that threaten them. Failing this, the team is to return a report on the situation whereupon the supervising professor will advise further action if necessary.

At the bottom of the page were two signatures, both equally illegible in unique ways. One, presumably Crystal's, was elegant and flowing with a flourish on the terminating "e;" the other, Lissa's, was hastily and scratchily written in a sad attempt at what she thought cursive script approximately looked like.

Leona placed what she was embroidering on the bedside table. She then lifted her self from the bed she was sitting on and crossed the room elegantly to meet the dark-skinned girl. "Lisa, I am happy we have a mission. I'm actually ecstatic. But did you really have to..." Her sentence petered out as the paper with the mission details that was shown to her. Her face turned to anger when she saw that the team members of team LLGD where ordered wrong. "Lisa did you lie to get this mission?" But before Lisa could respond, Leona saw where the mission was located. Leona's face turned white as she backed away from the paper. "I don't think I'm allowed to go on this mission." She said with a shaky voice. "My dad would kill me for going back to Mountain Glenn, if we don't die first."

All Graham did was shrug when he heard both the mission details and their team leader's predicament, before returning to his original position on his bed, seemingly without a care in the world in regards to their mission. However, those who weren't busy arguing or perusing the copy of paper would see the boy looking at his mechanised katana and butterfly knife with scrutiny, as if checking them for combat readiness.

Gray took a while longer than the rest of his team to read the mission brief. By the time he was done reading he saw Leona white in the face and concerned about the location. Woah. Leona? Are you alright? What's wrong? What about Mountain Glenn has you so spooked?"

Leona looked down at her hands as she responded. “My mom died at Mountain Glenn… I was a baby at the time but she was one of the many people who was trapped there when the… grim attacked. My dad is a hunter and saved me from getting eaten. T-that’s why I joined this academy. But this mission is Mountain Glenn! I just never thought I would have to go there.”

"I don't really get it, Lee," Lissa said as she sat down on the ground, pulling her legs in while staring up at Leona. "If that's what happened, shouldn't this be a great chance for you? We can stop the same thing from happening to someone else! That's what being a huntress is all about!" Lissa was once again beaming, trying to show Leona that this was okay. If her new team wanted to succeed, they would need their leader to be ready for anything.

...That and she didn't want to get in trouble.

"Makes sense for you to go back, leader." Graham idly commented. "Conquering your fears and all that. You'll probably also need to return there after you graduate anyway. And hey, any Grimm try to eat you again, this time you fight back! Not before they get cut down, but you get the point." He gestured at his sword. "Course, we can always turn down the mission if you're not ready to face your inner demons."

Leona thought about what Lissa said and saw Lissa smiling back up at her from the ground. She gave her a soft smile back and patted her head. It was true that this would be what being a huntress is all about. So when Grahm idly commented, she shook her head quickly at the thought of turning down the mission. She lifted her head with a new resolve in her eyes. "You guys are right. I should fight back and stop this from happening to someone else!" She helped Lissa on to her feet to give her a hug and whisper in her ear, "Thank you."  It appears that she forgot all about how Lissa got the mission.

She took a step back from Lissa and nodded to the boys. She then slid out a box with her dust gloves inside from next to her bed. "Shall we get ready to go then?"

"Mm-hm!" Lissa exclaimed, half-walking half-skipping over to her dresser. "There are people in trouble, so Ms. Evermore said we should meet up as soon as we can!" Lissa could barely contain her excitement at having a real mission already. Thankfully, she didn't have that much in the way of equipment; she slid Whirlwince and its sheaths onto her arms and was ready to go.

"...Oh! I nearly forgot!" Lissa gasped. "I have to tell Ms. Evermore we're ready to meet up!" She frantically started typing on her scroll as if her life depended on it, sending confirmation to Crystal that their group would be ready to get going in a few minutes.

"Do that, Lissa," Graham said, already walking out the door in his combat gear. "In the meanwhile, the rest of us should go meet the professor. Not that being late's the worst thing we've done so far, but better to break as little school rules as we can. At least the ones we haven't already broken."

(OOC: Time skip after Gray? Do we skip straight to Mount Glenn or just to the airship?)
