A City Falls: Start

Preparation

Just after light on the seventh day of the month of Bassoon everyone’s SCA glows with the colour of the void before showing a message. A briefing for the mission to come.

Anyone who goes to investigate the dressing carriage will find all the cupboards and drawers open. They may need to battle through spider webs but soon will find an array of clothes. Trousers, skirts, dresses, shirts, robes, cloaks. Everything they will need and plenty of choice. All the clothes have accents of team colours in more muted hues than the normal bold hoodies they wear.

A few hours later there is an announcement over the speakers. "Arrival to Planet #25768 imminent. Prepare for exit from Void. Drop order: Purple, Orange, Red, Blue. All passengers are to wear their Safety Control Apparatus and are reminded that emergency evacuation protocol is three short taps."

The train shudders and jerks. It is time.

Purple

"Purple Team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Purple team to doors."

The train flies down through the air before coming to a stop between two rocky outcrops. The doors hiss open, it’s a bit of a jump down to the ground and anyone who looks back will find the train hard to see. Not invisible but definitely cloaked, shifting to blend in with the rock.

They can hear the sound of many footsteps and the high sound of young voices. It is easy to hear where they need to be.

As they move down the rocky slope they will see the main pass. A large group of children are walking. Spirits are high even if it is clear they are on their guard. Older teens are wearing weapons, swords, the odd axe, a few daggers. Nothing expertly crafted but they all wear them with ease. Slightly younger children carry the very young, toddlers and those too young to walk and keep pace.

There’s a sound from in front of the group. From around the corner a girl, about thirteen years old, runs towards them. Her braids bounce against her shoulders, her eyes are wide with fear and she waves her hands at the others. “Run! Run!”

A shadow looms behind her, a winged wolf, gaining speed towards her. Sat on the wolf is a spear wielding goblin.

From all around them a growling of many more wolves, in the hills, close and ready to pounce.

Orange

Once Purple Team are gone the train flies again. "Orange Team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Orange Team to doors."

The train seems to be still concealed as it hovers at the city walls. There’s a bit of a jump onto the walls but at least they are near one of the staircases down into the city.

Also luckily no one seems to have seen them appearing out of no where though that has more to do with the general chaos rather than anything else!

There is a lot of chaos! People evacuating, animals everywhere, people looking lost and bewildered. Get herding or helping and encourage people up that cliff path!

Red

The train flies onward. "Red team to doors. Drop in two minutes. Red team to doors."

The train makes a slightly bumpy landing on a rocky slope. Scrambling up the slope red team will see a group of fighters, perhaps eighty in total. There are some supplies to the side, not yet allotted. Some horses and weapons. All the fighters are currently focused on a tall woman who is on horseback, facing them from the front.

“… Say those that stand here, as few as we may be were the ones who end the goblin menace on our lands for good. For our children and our families. We fight!”

The end of what was clearly a rousing speech, the fighters cheer. They begin to move over the slope, towards the goblin camp below. If you are joining this battle the time is now!

Blue

The train flies low, skimming over the lake. "Blue Team to doors. Drop in one minute. Blue Team to doors."

Jumping down off the train they will land in the shallows of the lake. It’s not deep enough to go over their boots and now too far to wade to shore. The shore is rocky, loose rocks and pools of water to avoid. The tower stands before them. Three goblins, riding wolves perch on the walls high above them. The sky above crackles with lightning that is not at all natural.

The doorway to the tower is open, there are a lot of stairs to get up. The howls of the wolves fill the air as the wizards fight them off above. Time to climb!

Peter giggles for a minute at the lame pun and then hisses in pain as the arrow comes out, scrunching up his face and biting down on his bottom lip.

"I-I was reading a book about helium and I couldn't put it down." He gets out another stupid joke to try not to focus on the pain and looks at the arrowhead covered in his blood.

"I don't think I want it." He says, still looking at it and then looks back down at his leg. That looks bad. Maybe it's not as bad as it looks though, maybe?

"Uh... I can stick a band-aid-well, I can't 'cause I don't have one. But I know how to stick a band-aid on stuff."

“Well, this is a bit more of a band-aid job, which is fine. All my funky Hello Kitty and MLP ones got left at home, and those heal your wounds better than normal ones.” He poked at the wound a moment. It missed anything super important and should heal fine. Or Spidey’s leg would fall off. Either or.

“I am gonna need help with this, though. I need you to to help tie off our MacGuyver bandaid here.” He reaches down to rip the cleanest strip of his weird cloak jacket he can find. “Now, I gotta tell you, normally you don’t take the thing out outside of a hospital, but you can’t move around with it in there, yeah?”

He rips the strip of wool in half and hands half to Peter. “Fold this up for me, it’s gonna have to be our gauze.”

Peter winces as his wound is poked at and looks away again. Nope, he can't do this and Wade isn't even laughing at his stupid Helium joke. He takes a deep breath and nods. It seems like he remembers hearing that or something. Too bad there's not hospital nearby.

"Y-yeah, I can-I can do that." He nods again, taking the fabric and folding it as best as he can can.

"What about Disney princesses and Pokemon? Those heal better than anything."

“ I mean, you are owned by Disney, but there was that whole thing with Sony, so lets hope you kept them princess powers, Spidey.” He took the folded fabric and frowned a moment. “Hey, this is gonna hurt like a bitch, try not to think about it.”

That was all the warning Peter got before Wade pressed the folded cloth firmly to the wound and holding it down with his stumped arm. With the other he started to wrap the remaining fabric strip around Peter’s leg. “Gimme a hand here, since you took mine, grab the other side we need to tie it tight.”

Peter will just be glad when all this is over and wound heals and he won't even have a scar. He lets out a nervous laugh at that comment and offers a small shrug. "I have no idea what you're taking about but, I mean... doesn't Disney own like... every one, technically?"

He hisses in pain at the pressure on the wound and grits his teeth before looking at it. Is there still any chance that it looks a lot worse than it is? Any?

"Um.. I don't uh.. Yeah, okay." Peter agrees, hoping he has enough control over his strength to not cut off the circulation.

"Speak for yourself, Spider-kid. Disney don't got me yet. That's why I get to say 'fuck'." Wade said cheerfully. "Pull a bit tighter." He instructed, eventually getting the wrapping tied off. He sat back a bit, sighing.

"You'll be fine, probably, let me know if you go numb or anything and don't panic. As far as wounds go, this one's pretty chill. Didn't get anything major and you aren't dead yet, which is the important thing, right?"

"Yeah but... it's Disney. It's only a matter of time." Peter shrugs while trying not to wince as the wrapping is tied off. "And I can say fuck, I just don't very often." Peter defends himself.

"I got in trouble like... last mission for cursing in front of Buttercup. I'm tryin' ta like... make sure she doesn't use those words in front of other people 'cause I'm pretty sure I'll get grounded if she does."

"Wow, just an outright hooligan, huh?" He asked, dragging himself up to his feet and offering his good hand to Peter.

"Don't think we should hang out here long, how goods your healing factor? Don't need to be 100%, just need to move."

"I mean, I am in my rebellious teenage phase." Peter points out before grabbing his hand and hoisting himself up.

"It's good-I mean I probably need like... at least thirty minutes but-it works pretty good."

"I think we can manage 30 minutes. Try to walk around a bit. If you start to feel noodle-y sit down." He picked up his sword again with his good hand and moved to lurk near the entrance.

"I'll keep a watch, I guess. Sure hope I don't get bored!"
