Quest Title: Marco? Polo? Tier: D Region: Anywhere Reward: Pink Senzu Bean x1 & D-Tier Rewards Objective: It has been reported, either through word of mouth, or your faction, that is a wild and muscle bound thug causing a ruckus for people someplace, somewhere. It is tasked to you to defeat the trouble maker, and arrest him for his violent behavior due to his best friend being missing. However, there is no time to ask or inquire about this missing person, just preserve the peace by defeating either Marco or Polo. Where Is He!? Tell Me!: Enraged that he cannot find his best friend, either Marco, or Polo, will lunge at you with two fists, to pummel you to the ground to deal 10 dmg. Baby Tantrum: In a fit, Marco, or Polo, will grab anything near them, and launch it at the target, to deal 10 dmg. Long Fang If you see this, I haven't yet started it and you feel like starting it, I was thinking maybe someone at the wedding gets news about Marco making a mess somewhere and fills us in on it, thinking we might be able to resolve it and assuming Marco would be willing and able to compensate us after it's over?} |

With the wedding over, apparently, a new problem was about to come and give them a good smack. "It's awful, Marco is off on the pier trying to fight everyone! He keeps asking where Polo is! You two need to go take care of this issue!" Cried a woman who ran at Fang and Ryder to let them know there was trouble on the horizon. Fang really didn't have much reason to go stop this guy... But he supposed that if Ryder wanted to, then he would go at least for the sake of helping her deal with this guy. It sounded like a giant pain, but whatever. It probably would not take that long to deal with anyway. Just go there, talk to Marco, or kick his ass till he calmed down, and then they could be on their way again. "So what do you want to do about this then?" He asked looking at Ryder wondering what she thought about this situation. He looked very unenthusiastic about it, but it was obvious that he was just going to follow her lead when it came to this situation. He didn't know the lady asking for help, or this Marco person, but Ryder at least was someone he had worked with during this wedding. And he respected her enough that he would cooperate and follow along at her signal.

~Need? That's pretty presumptuous of her~ This random wedding guest chick's expectations didn't exactly inspire a great deal of motivation in Ryder, a feeling apparently mirrored in Fang based on his apparent lack of interest. She couldn't give a damn about some ruffian roughing people up on the pier, but to be honest... there would come a day that the PTO was going to conquer these lands in the south. Having a few more contacts out here could prove useful. Turning to Fang, Ryder the woman flashed him a helpless smile, "If it's not one thing it's another. Not sure where this bitch gets off claiming it's our problem, but... I can't help but wonder if this guy might actually be strong. My curiosity is getting the better of me. Besides, I'll take a clash with a straightforward brawler over some arrogant young master any day. By all means, please feel free to tag along if it suits you" the woman offered as she rose to her feet. Without waiting for a response, Ryder took off towards the pier, her revolver safely hidden beneath the skirt of her red dress. As she approached, the man's screams became louder and Ryder could see that he was covered in sweat with a wild look in his eyes. She couldn't make out everything he was saying, but she could hear him repeatedly yelling, "Where is Polo? He promised he would meet me here today!?" Ryder approached the man cautiously, a friendly smile on her face as she plastered on the charm, subtly flaunting the sway in her hips as she strode forwards, drawing closer and feigning the illusion of a concerned bystander. A beautiful woman who couldn't help but try to help this person through his suffering. "Do... you think we could talk about it over drinks? You can tell me all about this Polo and maybe we can find him together." The man continued to rant and rave like a lunatic, her voice falling on deaf ears as Marco moaned and malded over being stood up by this 'Polo' fellow. In the end he even made a wild, wide and telegraphed swing on Ryder, his arm as thick as her waist sweeping towards her pretty head... OOC: 375 words Long Fang

Maybe she would have asked someone else if there was anyone she thought had some ability to defend themselves. But as Fang and Ryder had been the guards for this little party as far as the woman was concerned they were the only people she knew who were probably qualified to deal with the situation.
"Well, I suppose at the very least we should make sure nobody gets seriously hurt." He decided. While he didn't care that much if people did get hurt, he decided that it was more a matter of pride in this case. A martial artist attacking normal people was something Fang did not support. The strong should fight the strong. Using that strength to abuse the weak was simply distasteful, at least ordinarily.
So he followed along behind the woman as they went to see what this Marco person was all about. It was clear the man was utterly distraught, and out of his mind with grief. But this kind of reaction because his friend didn't show up? He didn't think most lovers held this kind of steadfast commitment to a meeting. While Fang might have been disappointed that a friend had neglected him, he didn't think he could have this kind of reaction even if something truly terrible did happen to someone he cared about. What sense did this mindless rampage make? What did it accomplish? Nothing. It was the tantrum of a child who raged at the world.
Ryder at least made some attempt to calm the man, but she'd hardly made her offer when the big man took a swing at her.
Fang was sure that the woman could defend herself just fine, but all the same, he decided to step in. His hand slid smoothly under the wrist of the swinging man and pushed up, redirecting the force of the blow skyward so that it struck neither of them before Fang performed a double palm strike.
Hands pressed to Marco's chest before his palms twisted, feet planted but pushed with great force to send the man sliding back. A simple but effective double palm strike to the man's chest before Fang stood in a relaxed but flowing stance. "Are you alright, Ryder?" He asked just to make sure.
"Seems this man will not listen to reason. His blood burns beyond reason. I suppose that all we can do then is wear him down until his blood cools and perhaps then he can think straight." Of course, if that didn't work then he supposed that the only thing they could do was end the man. Even if they ended up gaining the ire of this Polo person as a result. He wasn't willing to die to this man's unreasoning frenzy. If this became a battle for his life he would not hesitate to take Marco's first if it became necessary.
