Seventy Sixth Star

[heavenfang]

Sorry, Naja, but I can't stay here. We're getting picked off out there. I'll be back, but I'm not doing anyone any good just holding down the fort here.

-Tir is heading out of Latimir and keeping to the shadows. Time to take out some of the enemy... though it's unlikely a one handed man with a bo staff will last that long.-

Tir! [A stern hiss of the boy's name comes through the communicator.]

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Apologies, sir.

[ HI TIR. LOOK AT THIS DUDE SHOOTING AT YOU. ]

[ Yeahhhh, not gonna cut it. Firing again. ]

NOW IN THE RIGHT PLACE

-Tir flinches, diving again behind a desk in the building. He needed a plan, and fast.

... Stairs in the back. He began to dart for them.-

How bad is Latimir?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Latimir has some of the best security in the city.

[asitcouldbe.livejournal.com]

So does the hospital and they're still getting in. You're getting slaughtered, aren't you?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Latimir is a fort. They'll be fine. You guys need the extra hands.

[asitcouldbe.livejournal.com]

Are you coming to the hospital?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

It's on my list of places to go.

[asitcouldbe.livejournal.com]

Thank you.

I really wish we had been able to get everyone in one place for this.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

That's not necessarily a good idea either.

[asitcouldbe.livejournal.com]

Centralizing our defense force and making sure that everyone who can't fight is protected isn't a good idea?

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

You give them one big target that way, as opposed to several, smaller targets.

Centralized forces are better when you have superior munitions and logistics. But we're the weaker enemy here. Our best hope is to spread out, thus splitting their focus.

[asitcouldbe.livejournal.com]

And leave some people alone and defenseless. I'm not a tactician, so far all I know what you're saying makes the most logical sense... but I can't be okay with that.

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

Trust me. This is the best way to ensure the least amount of casualties.

WHAT ARE YOU, NUTS?! GET THE HELL BACK HERE!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

... You know I can't do that, Naja. I can't ignore people who can use my help.

[najawantsgold.livejournal.com]

Yer gonna get killed if you go runnin' out there! Are you out of your mind?!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

I'm trying to keep others from being killed.

[najawantsgold.livejournal.com]

Yer not helpin' anyone if yer dead, Tir!

[tenkai-soul.livejournal.com]

...

Comes with the territory.
