Kaze nods, "Okay. So...Phoenyx and me on this side, and you and Aurora on the other side? Or wait, you have to be on this side to control it, right? That's what the plan depends on, you being able to control it? Maybe Aurora can do that too?" The young apostate says, trying to piece together The Plan from what the Shaman has been saying, looking for clarity over esoteric knowledge, for now. "Are you saying that with you or you and Aurora controlling it, we don't need two teams, on both sides at once? We can finish up on this side, and then go to the other side?"
Kaze grins suddenly, "If blowing things up is part of this plan, I can probably get a hold of Shodan."
The Arrow finally leaves her position on the door frame and walks purposefully towards the houses. "We need to move at night, to minimise Sleeper observation. The House is exposed. Assuming the creature remains within the house, we need to enter, ideally by stealth to retain the element of surprise. Then we have to locate the creature, putting us in close quarters. What space is required for the trap? Or is it a spell?"
She looked along the row of houses. "I suppose, if we could trap it in the... Spirit side?" a questioning look is shot towards Anima, "Then the risk of exposure is greatly reduced. Then one person could set the normal house as a trap using the gas and fire, in case the creature slips back to the 'real' world." Considering she has little knowledge of spirits, tactics is clearly something she has.
The doctor is prepared to respond to Kaze, but Phoenyx's tactical summary gives him pause. He nods eagerly.
"It's a spell, a contest of will to command the creature, but once I have it I have it. Absolutely. Trapping it in the spirit side would be ideal, then we'd be able to let lose more freely. However, I would caution, that the Shadow is also the spirits home, it will be more powerful and more dangerous. It might take me longer to overcome its will and command it."
Kaze ponders. "Is it easier or harder to work with another person. Aurora specifically?" He asks the Shaman. "I mean, can this contest of wills...can you double team it?"
He looks at Phoenyx. "Sounds like it's worth waiting for her to be available, if it works like that; you and me on this side, him and her on the Other Side. What do you think?" He asks Phoenyx.
Phoenyx pulls out a phone and begins texting. "I've sent her a message," she says. "If she agrees.... I would say it makes more sense to split the paths. Should the creature escape one team, there is another waiting on the other side it can jump to. Whichever side," She places a hand either side of one of the houses, "we wall it off from escape, and you and I," she motions to Kaze "prioritise killing it."
The Arrow looks up. "If you and I go on one side, and the creature comes to us, we cannot hold it. Our options become kill it or let it escape, and that could become very risky to the veil. I would rather we do this with the minimum of altering the surrounding sleepers."
The Shaman nods, understanding achieved.
"Very good! I'm glad we're all understanding the stakes here. This kind of infection can be reaching and detrimental. These creatures are driven to assault hollows, walling them off with their webs and feasting on those drawn to the energy there."
He motions to 'elaborate' display like a child at a science fair. "Any further questions?"
Kaze nods. "Okay." He says. "I'm up for wherever works best."
He looks at the model, then shakes his head slightly at the shaman. "Thanks again for the detailed explanation. The model helps." He says with a smile.
Phoenyx nods. "An idea of physical strength and prowess would be helpful. Is it fast? What is it likely to do when attacked - flee or fight?" She shrugs. "Otherwise, if you have told us everything we need to know, I suppose we prepare to go back."
I think we're good to close up, more or less?
Anima, ahhhs.
"Ah yes, expect the fastest, strongest creature you can imagine, beyond that of a Olympic athlete. And it will bite your face off. Literally."
"Please let me know if you recruit any additional exterminators. Once your ready, we'll gather down the block from the location."
sure I'll close it on up.
