Snippet #1480152

Giacomo listened to the conversation and his attention spiked when he heard about the poison presumingly containing cyanide. Cyanide was a substance the scientists worked with almost on a daily basis, they often were so accustomed of being near the stuff that they handled it like any other substance, with care, but not out of fright of the concequences. The barrels of Taylor Chemicals were labelled and if one dissapeared it would be noticed within seconds, but there were other unmarked barrels, the result of a failed experiment to extract the cyanide from almond and abricot cores. This cyanide was roulated around Marchfield as nobody wanted the contaminated junk, it was useless for those who didn't have the weeks of free time to purify the cyanide, and of course no scientist had such time. The worst part was, nobody seemed to know which department had them in their storage as of present.

His thoughts were disturbed by the sudden introduction of a voilent fight in the palace. There was even one that was assualting the princess in this very room. Giacomo wasn't realy a fighter, but he wasn't going to sit around. He jumped up and grabbed the blowtorch from his pockets, if used properly it was more effective as many common weapons, but it did require one to get up close and personall. He ignited the blowtorch and a small nearly explosive sound from the sudden ignition of the gasses sounded through the room and possibly the hallways. With his other hand he grabbed for the largest wrench he had on him, which was about the size of a shortsword. You never knew when you'd need your tools, and exactly that was the reason he always was loaded with them, fortunatly for this moment he held true to that in any case.

As Loki dissapeared into the hallways he ran after her, accidentally igniting a rogue assasins pants as he came out of the door. The man already was on fire, but he still voilently swang his sword at Giacomo, who could barely avoid the attack. In this case his Monocular was a dissadvantage, although it didn't mangificate with the set of lenses that were in use, it still distorted the sight a little, a dissadvantage one couldn't use in a situation like this. With the wrench he pulled the monocular from his head, exposing the underlying crystalic skin. It startled the assasin for a moment, and Giacomo took the chance to slam his wrench into the mans gut. The man dropped the sword and before he could reach it with his hand Giacomo had placed the blowtorches flame on the hilt, heating the metal and igniting the leathery grip. Not many materials stood a chance against a flame specialy made to heat or even smelt metal. He looked around and asside from him, Loki and Amon it seemed like they were the only opposition of the assasins. Things seemed to be more than problematic.
