[QUOTE="Tonguez, post: 9802346, member: 1125"] [COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)][B]TEAM FUSION - SUBJECT:SHADE-9 - In the Deep end[/B][/COLOR] [[COLOR=rgb(226, 80, 65)]STEALTH PROTOCOL: HOLDING Tactical scanning Initiated[/COLOR]] The basin was broader than expected, and the massive bulk of the hydra loomed large over its bed of silt and bones. Shade-9 remained still and silent, concealed against the ridge, making himself invisible. He watched as the creatures' heads coiled and uncoiled through their activity cycle, one heavy and retiring, the other alert, scanning, listening, the musculature of its neck tense and responsive. Shade-9 timed the turning of the active head, noting its search parameters and how the sway of its neck from side to side and shifts of its bulk and tail caused ripples in the water flow. Using the psychic link he relayed the data back to Darius on the surface, and awaited any further data that might come from above. Continuing to scan the Hydra's basin until he spotted the glow of the red gem that marked their target - silt covered, black stone, matte, carved humanoid figurine clutching a dagger, red gem inset. On his own he might have remained here for hours perhaps days, studying the Hydras activity cycles, but others were waiting above, so again Shade-9 reported back to Darius and the team on shore [I][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)][B]"MISSION UPDATE:[/B][/COLOR][/I] [LIST] [*][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)][I][I][B]Target Located: [/B][/I]Idol of Bhaal inset with glowing red gem - [/I] arcane energy signature?[I] - [/I][/COLOR] [*][COLOR=rgb(0, 0, 0)][I][U]Object Location[/U]: In Hydra nest, adjacent to the Tail coil.
