"I will," she whispered quickly. "As for that Fool's Errand. I was sent to hunt down a fugitive. And I do know how to operate the DNA Cannons. All models."
She gave a rare small ghost of a smile. "I would enjoy that."

"Good. Now, let's see... All troops! Assemble around me!"
"We need to get a foothold in every sector." Once the other angels had grouped around him, Liderc produced a map. "Sinann, I'm going to entrust you with a small dispatch and scout the south."
"Understood."
"Good. Tane, you will be in charge of the west."
"Can do."
"Of course you can. We're going to hold off on the north for now." He stood up. "Mic." Liderc glanced at the little angel. "I have an important mission for you, so don't fuck this up, or I will gut you like a scaly swimming beast." The outline of a naginata swirled around the tall angel. "After you've infiltrated the pests, sabotage anything electrical that isn't needed for continued life. We don't need anything like that around, but I'd rather leave the locals out of this."
Finally, Liderc turned to Sophi, faintly smiling. "I can't boss you around, and to be frank, I'd rather not. The scanner picked up a strange energy reading to the east, so that may be the fugitive you're looking for. In the meantime, I assume you have my stone cipher? I'll keep you updated. Now... shall we lock the cannons onto our little problem?"

Mic stood up straight and offered a bold smile as Liderc gave him his orders. The commander's threat went right over his head, not out of ignorance, but because Mic had no intention of letting Liderc down. And sure enough, what Liderc was proposing was most intriguing.
"YES, SIR! Hmmm..." Mic tapped his chin and started pacing while Liderc went to talk to Sophi. "So infiltrate the group, learn about the dragon man, disable any non-mundane electronic devices! Yeah, that much I can definitely do! Just to be that close, to learn about this draconic creature and human technology…! Oooooh, this is so exciting! I could go right now! I could pick up a change of clothes, retrace their steps from the Plaza, and get a stakeout going wherever they decide to recover! AND ONCE I DISABLE THEIR MACHINERY, MAYBE I CAN COPY SCHEMATICS OF THEM! IT... COULD... WORK!!!"
After leaping for joy and touching back down with a surprisingly powerful slam for such a little guy, several prototype gizmos slipped out of the various pockets of Mic's jacket, clattering to the floor and breaking upon impact.
"I'LL FIX THOSE LATER!!!"

Sophi nodded. "I do. Hopefully you hacen't changed stones since the last time you gave it to me," she offered as she stretched her wings. "And an odd energy to the East you say. I will check that shortly. As for the cannons," she smirked and cracked her knuckles, "let's get them fired up."

"Alright. We all have our assignments. Let's get to it."
As the two angels assigned to scout the south and west took off with their dispatches, Liderc turned to analyze the device Mic had procured- a cannon with a distinct spiral design, almost double helix-like. "... Of course, it had to be the Era Ten model. They know full well the big flaw in this one, and yet they gave it to us anyway... Then again, I highly doubt these apes know what this even is."
Placing a hand inside a small chamber on the cannon's side, the machine glowed a faint green, followed by a soft humming sound. A display lit up, displaying two faces. Seeing the brunette human's face, Liderc sighed. "Have you ever seen such a distasteful face? Sophi, lock the coordinates on this... Kelsey Page. Mic... just... don't go near the cannon. All three of us know the Era Ten DNA cannons have a big enough flaw as it is."

"HEHEH...! DULY NOTED, SIR!" Mic laughed as he stuffed his miscellaneous inventions and scraps back into his jacket, smiling at the cannon and the commander from where he crouched a few yards away. If he was genuinely hurt by Liderc's wariness, he was doing a masterful job at hiding it behind his equally genuine enthusiasm.
"Well now!" He stood up straight again with his fists on his hips and a confident grin on his face. "We got our troops, we got our scouts, we got our cannon, we got one less demon to worry about, and I got a dragon man and human tech to study! A-And sabotage, of course. Supposin' I should be off as well! THANK YOU, SIR!I WON'T LET YOU DOWN, SIR!"
And with that, Mic scrambled towards the exit, wings flapping haphazardly until he finally took flight into the pouring rain and the city beyond. To say he was excited would be a severe understatement. He was nothing short of ecstatic. He had a prime opportunity to study and reverse engineer advanced technology, he was going to learn about a strange draconic race with fascinating abilities, and perhaps best of all, he was actually being trusted with crucial tasks for Paradiso. He was an invaluable member of this operation, and knowing that brought the most joyous of smiles to his chartreuse-tinted cheeks.
All previous setbacks aside, as far as Mic was concerned, this day could not get any better.

Sophi nodded. "With pleasure," she offered before heading down to the cannon levels.
