Snippet #2256489

Julie's breath drew clouds in the air as the team walked through the Industrial district. It was just about as chilling as the gaze she could feel the Reaper draw during the meeting. What did all those dates mean? Were they really what was behind the spikes of Lost recently? Clutching the cold metal of the automatic crossbow she hoped that their journey to Warehouse 13 would yield some results. Julie usually didn't like bringing weapons on missions, she found them to get in the way often and they were usually too bulky to handle. Her weapon in specific had been specially fitted as a light weight utility though, meant for quick firing and easy reloading. She had also been assured that today, for this mission it would almost surely be needed.

Watching the people running in the opposite direction that they were headed as Julie slung her crossbow behind her, almost assured the thought that they were heading to the right place. People ran when they saw things that they couldn't understand, in this case they sure were right to. Picking up the pace behind Tekil as he began to run Julie wondered what had made the man change his speed so quickly. Looking into the doors though she was starting to understand why. There was a whole swarm of Lost, more in one area than she usually ever saw. There were people too.

"Dang…" She muttered under her breath.

"Julie! Summon some orbs and draw the spirits away from Quest! Boys, when she does, dispatch them quickly and come back here to help us! Now go!"

"On it!" Breaking into a sprint Julie ran to the opposite end of the Warehouse, charging a glowing sphere around her as she went. She could feel it moving in rhythm with her heartbeat as she fed energy into it, the glow starting to grow brighter, soon the place would be lit up like a Nightclub. Normally the Lost weren't really ones for bright places but for some reason they ate the glow that her psyche produced right up,

"there we go…" The smaller Lost were starting to get distracted the light it seemed as they started to inch themselves away from the trapped man and towards her. Tekil had called him Quest, she wondered how he knew him. Whoever he was she just hoped that there were no more casualties in this mission. Seeing the amount of Lost here though she had to wonder if this was just the beginning of things.
