Firvin arrived in the main lobby walking hand in hand with Riley, he realized that she would be nervous so he looked at her "It's ok I'll tell them all what's going on." He said to her, his usual smile however, was absent. Everyone was here, he saw all his friends, and a few people that he hadn't met before but he knew what he had to tell them. Firvin gathered everyone's attention, keeping Riley at his side using her as a source of strength, he clears his throat. "Hello everyone, we here at the facility all have a tough decision to make. I, no one, will force you to do what I am about to ask, but you all have the freedom to choose on your own, but all of your help would be greatly appreciated. But before that, there are some things we need to explain." He pauses looking at Riley, who nods back at him and he continues; "The rumbling and shaking you have no doubt heard and felt, was an attack. World War Three has started and the government can not handle their own problems. This is the first time since Pearl Harbor and the 9/11 attacks, that anyone has dared to attack United States soil, and it seems they have been unable to repel the attack. They have requested that we assist them in their fight. I myself have decided I will go, furthermore Riley will be coming as well." He paused again watching the faces of everyone in the crowd, he saw Silas who looked seriously disturbed the repercussions of Firvin's speech, He saw Magiere and Stelian, whom he has just met, who both looked determined. He saw Timber, sitting alone in the back she looked neither frightened nor excited but rather she looked...ready, as if she were ready to do whatever her friends needed of her. Firvin smiled as he saw all of his friend's and continued his speech. "I know you all will do what you feel is right. I can not force you to fight in this war but I will say this, all of you who know me, know that I hate the government that serves us, they have forced us here because they are afraid of us. But I will be the first to say this, despite my feelings for the government, I will defend the people here, I will fight for them, not the U. S. but each and every one of you. I will make it my duty to see to it that you make it back alive. Of course even though I vow to do everything I can to protect you, this will be dangerous, some of you, or even I, might die. But fighting to protect all of you, I think that is worth the risk. Any of you willing to participate in the fight, come speak with Riley or myself and we will sort everything out." His speech moved most of the residents of Facility X, and they had begun forming a line to speak with them. Out of the corner of his eye he saw something moving slowly on the ground towards him, when he looked at he sighed, "Oh, hey Revion" the plant turned it's 'head' towards him and Firvin, as always understood the plants words without speaking, "Your mother would be proud of you for what you have said here, she died so that you could have a better life, she would be glad to see that you aren't wasting it" a single tear formed in Firvin's eyes as Revion finished.

Sierra glanced at Silas, she heard Timber declare she was in . A sad look consumed Sierras face, 'I will fight to protect my brothers and sisters, I will speak to my lord and ask him for help.' She said releasing Silas hand and standing by Firvin and Timber. She let go of her human form, she kept her wings folded but she had her sword in her hand. 'The humans have got themselves into a mess... Again. I suppose they should learn who really are the more powerful race.' She smiled triumphantly.

His wolf form on the other hand, was at least 6 foot high, with powerfull muscles, and a thick black pelt with a gold stripe on his forehead. he had long talons, and sharp canines, long muscular limbs and powerfull jaws.
both forms were deadly. Sometimes he would allow people to ride on his back in dragon form. Small people when he is in wolf form

As the members of the Facility stood and confirmed their agreement to join in the fight Riely looked up at Firvin and nodded. "Very well then. If everyone will take a seat at the main table I will begin the briefing." Once everyone had sat down Riely took her position at the head of the table. Taking a deep breath she steadied herself for what she was about to say. "We have been given three different missions each one playing into different strengths of our members." After another breath and an encouraging look from Firvin she continued. "The first mission focuses on stealth in Tokyo, Japan. This task would be best suited to our spell casters. The mission is to capture a High Value Target hiding somewhere within the city. No other information is given other than the target's name and this photo. I will be going with this group. Any who wish to follow with me wait here at the end of the meeting." She looked around trying to gauge the reaction of everyone.
"The second mission is best suited for our weres. It is an ambush in the deep forest of Brazil. It give a location and a description of the targets. After the ambush you are to search the area and destroy any remaining forces. Those interested in this mission will be meeting in the dining hall after the meeting. Timber I hope you can take the charge of this one." Again looking to gauge the reactions she took another deep breath and continued.
"The third mission is best suited for the Vampires or other night based creatures. It is a search and destroy/capture mission in an elaborate tunnel system under Central China. The mission is to clear the tunnel of any enemy forces and to destroy or capture any technology or weaponry. Those interested in this mission meet in the basement conference room." Having given out all of the missions Riely let out a sigh of relief. 'That was easier than I thought it would be. "I can't thank you all enough for agreeing to help with this war. If we do our part we will be rewarded. Watch each other's backs I want to see everyone returning in one piece. Now everyone go to the meeting area of your wanted mission. Decide on a leader and prepare to move. We leave tomorrow morning. Good luck everyone." With that Riely sat, more of collapsed, into her chair watching as everyone went to their meeting areas.
(OOC: You do not have to go on the suggested mission if you would rather do a different one show up to that meeting. However try to keep the teams even.)

However, their conversation was interupped by sounds of a meeting going on. Reluctantly, the two nodded at each other and went into the room, listening intently at the situation. It was but a silent agreement. Two great and old minds think alike, after all. No words were needed to know what the other is planning. Asher would go with Riely. After all, with the elemental power of the shadows, nothing is able to find him. For Daine, he would go with the werewolves, and he would help in the ambush. The gunblade is a destrouctive weapon, after all. It's perfect for wiping out forces that try to kill him. They didn't really mind seperating, though. They usually come back some time or another. And that's when this whole thing was over.
ASHER
Without a word, Asher stayed in the room, leaning against the wall and closing his eyes. He needed to contact his own dark side. Why? They need to work together again, as sad as it sounded. The two sides of life cooperating with each other? It's Yin and Yang. They are part of one thing, yet colored differently. They just need to trust in the other. "So. You actually do need my help." Lucian smirked from inside Asher's mind. All he did was glare at his dark side silently, obviously testing to see how much his patience would last. However, Lucian's next statement caused Asher to relax. "Fine. I'll allow you to use my powers without any cost. Just remember that after this, you're fighting with me again."
Asher listened to Kalin, and contemplated about her description of her abilities. If she can trick the mind... Asher thought. "Hey, little girl." Asher called. "Maybe you can help with the ambush. If you can fly, you might be able to escape the enemy's range of vision. Starting a fire in the rain forest, specifically near them, would cause a disruption in their ranks. Trick the mind, and you have them all confused and vulnerable for the werewolves to eat them up." Asher explained, using his wisdom that was once in his mind a thousand years ago.
DAINE
Daine walked silently to the basement, his gunblade becoming unsheathed. Finally... Something that isn't boring around here... Daine thought. In truth, his life was spent in peace, but as a vagrant. He can't enjoy life without excitement anymore. Being stuck in one place is frustrating, and boring. So, the first even you see, you take the opportunity and firmly grasp it with your own two hands. Daine ended up running in rxcitement. Nothing boring about this anymore. However, he despite his smirk on his face, Daine did take it seriously enough.

Magiere remained focused listening to the missions, she could be suited to the jungle mission but when she heard about the mission in China she knew she would perfect. She stood and headed towards the basement conference room. In a situation like war she would need to be at her best, and she couldn't do it without feeding, but ... who was she close enough to, to feed on. Taking advantage of an innocent would be unforgivable. Furthermore since they were attempting to be stealthy in the tunnel system she could not guarantee an enemy to feed on. Her mind suddenly shot towards Stelian, he would probably offer her his blood if she asked, as he had done it before. She declined because it was an intimate act, surely he would not judge her for asking for his blood in such a dire situation. She thought through all of this as she walked to the basement conference room. It will probably be just the three of us down there, oh and Ayla, how could I forget about her. She will probably invaluable in the tunnels her sense of smile guiding us to our targets. I'll have to be sure to mention that during our briefing. She was first to arrive in the conference room and she took a seat at the table and awaited the others.
Firvin
Firvin sat next to Riley as she gave a brief description of the 3 missions to those who had agreed to fight, occasionally giving her a reassuring look. Once she finished he began to speak "Riley, I know it's now where I fit best, but I will be going with you on the first mission ..." He paused slightly as Silas made eye contact with him, he did not say anything but his look said it all "Dude, go where you fit, Riley is a powerful caster she can handle herself". Firvin understood the message and responded "On second though I think I'll go with the weres to the forests of Brazil, my unique bond with nature is too valuable to ignored for my own personal preference. I will lead the mission and we will come back in one piece, I can promise I'll do all I can to ensure that." He said. And with that he stood and left the room on his way to the dining hall. He looked back for just a second making eye contact with Riley. Looking in her eyes, he knew she would be safe. He was first to arrive in the Dining Hall. He sat at the head of the table and began looking over the briefing materials. So he would be prepared for the meeting.
