It's midnight, thunder booms in the sky and rain crashes down on the old observatory. The three participants stands infront of the maingate. It were rusty and behind it were patches of grass and weeds sprouting through the concrete. "Come in" A voicebox by the side buzzed, and the gates opened up, shrieking.

Rey walks in through the gates, unable to see much around her other than the building in front of her. Holding her arms above her eyes to try and help with the pouring rain.

As Rey made her way to the steel door of the observatory, something growled in the rain, though the rain were to heavy for the thing that growls to be visible.

Rey looked around for the source of the growling, but no luck. She drew her handgun, cocking it back. Her eyes narrowed as she watched the rain around her for movement.

The growling came closer and closer, eventually revealing the beastial figure. It were a large wolf, standing on its hind legs. The legs were cocked leg locks with springs, then it jumped forth at her.

Rey dodged out of the way, spinning around and shooting at it. ((Are we using dice?))

The bullets fell to the ground as they hit the wolf's chest, it lashed out with it's great claws.

((When I use dices, it's either to make up a dillemma, or do D&D style combat, and I don't know how to do that))

Rey’s eyes widened a bit, she tried to dodge, but the beast’s claws cut her arm, leaving three gashes. She yells in pain, holding the wound with her hand, the blood leaking through her fingers.

The door to the observatory springs open and an old man with a long beard and a brass blunderbuss, stepped out. "Begone foul beast!" He yelled at the wolf, then shot at it with the buss. Though the blunderbuss looked like a regular one, it shot with some sort of inverted color rainbow. The wolf skrieked as its chest were pierced with negatones. The wolf fell to the ground with a thud, then the man walked over to Rey. "Are you ok?" He asked sorta worried.

Rey nods, groaning a bit. “As long as you have a needle and stitches I can fix it up.” She says.

"Then come with me" Said the man and walked inside the observatory.

Rey gets up, holding her hand over the wound to try to keep it from dripping on the floor.

As they walk inside, they were overwhelmed by sights of weird vials, abstract sketches and metalic gadgets. The smell in the air smells like a mix of ammoniak, dust, and raspberries. "I assume that you came here because of the post on Craigslist, right?" He asked then began to fumble around with a box under a table.

Rey nods. “I heard that a couple other people signed up, but I’m not sure if they have arrived yet.”

"Yeah, I'm pretty sure that you were the only one to give a shit about the job, not everyone want to save the world" He found a first aid kit "Found that bastard"

Rey chuckles a bit at his remark, taking the kit. She looks through it and grabs a needle, thread and cotton. “Do you have some sort of rag?” She asks.

He finds some bandage from the kit. "Here you go" He handed her the roll. "So do you have any questions about the job?"

Rey shakes her head. “It sounds very straight foreword.” She says, pressing a section of the bandage against the wound to clean it somewhat. She takes the needle and thread, biting down hard on the clean side of the bandage. She sticks the needle in the top part of the first gash, starting to thread the skin together, her teeth clenching around the bandage.

"Good thing that the applicant can fix their own wounds. Also if you call being hooked up to a machine that transports your soul and mind to an universe were everything that the human mind has come up with, to follow a trace which leads an evil wizard straight foward, then good luck"

Rey nods as she finishes the stitching, sighing of relief as she takes the bloodied bandage out of her mouth, getting a clean one from the kit and wrapping it over the stitches. “I’m very thorough with my research.” She says.
