Play Back

"Play Back, I would like you to go to the citadel outpost in Corone, more specifically, in Radasanth," Sued's words still rung out in Play Back's mind. It seemed that the office of CG investigations had gotten a rather strange case. A citadel monk had traveled all the way to Scara Brae from Corone to find the detectives.
It seemed as though the citadel was fueling a lot of hostile feelings towards people. Normally, citadel agression was a normal thing but this was a far from normal case. While fighters were allowed to hold grudges and fight one another within the walls of the building, the monks were not. Recently, however the monks had been fighting people wanting to come in for nothing more than a short little scuffle.
The violent acts of the monks was enough of a concern for the leader of CG investigations, Sued, to send Play Back. His mission was a simple one, find clues without trying to fight any of the monks. Play Back left almost immediately after he had heard of the situation, not wanting innocent people to be hurt by corrupt monks.
Could it be that a telepath is behind these riots? Play Back thought to himself. Perhaps the Dark Hearted Man is connected somehow? That would explain why Sued sent me and not Robert. This task seems much more suited for Sued's bodyguard than one of his employees. Play Back eventually came to the large Radasanth building and walked through the doors.
Almost immediately, the child began to hear gun shots, and was greeted by the sight of what appeared to be a cowboy fighting off several violent citadel monks.
"A young heartbeat," the man mummbled as he fired several more shots, "is your name Play Back by any chance, kid?" The teen blinked at the question and quickly nodded. "Well, is it or is't it?!" The cowboy was growing impatient, and he turned around to show his frustration. At this point Play Back realized that the cowboy was blind, so he quickly spoke up. "Yes sir," he said, "I am Play Back!"
"Great, so Sued sent me a kid to do a mans job," the man sighed as he jumped back, barely dodging a monks spear. "The name's Jones, I'm part of CG as well. You need to -whoa!" Jones ducked rather quickly as a sword swang just over his head. "That was close," he mummbled as he fired a round behind him. Play Back had never seen such raw skill from a blind person before, and was simply in awe.
"Don't just stand there!" Jones shouted at the teen as he shoulder tackled a monk in front of him. "There's someone else here, not affiliated with us or the monks! I'm trying to buy you some time to find them, so go and get them out of here! This is a mad house!" Jones yelped after his last comment, as a whip had been cracked across his back. "Go now!"
((As the title states, this battle is open to anyone. The point not being to fight one another, but to fight our way past the citadel monks and escape. I will hope this will still be judged as a regular battle, and if you want to get with me to discuss terms, my aim is ashtonwise. Or PM either way works.))
