closed shot ⊗ dog relocation

Who: Eustace and Denji
Status: Closed
Where: Mysterious island south of Nogard
What: After securing a place for these heroic dogs, Eustace and Denji set out to ~~steal~~ "rescue" the guard dogs featured in February's "Who Let the Dogs Out" quest. Because they deserve better life than guarding some rich scum's mansion!!!
Warnings: Denji's in here so...him.

[After contacting Denji about this plan, the two have once more set out to the island where they first met and worked together. Although Eustace still...questions Denji a fair bit, he can at least trust the boy to follow his directions and help with the biggest "heist" they'll pull off yet. While he's not sure if they'll be able to get all the dogs in this one trip, he will certainly try.

Using a larger ship with a small crew to help, they reach the island and set off towards the mansion like they did before. Eustace still doesn't want to harm the dogs, so he's brought treats laden with sleeping powder that will not be safe for them to consume. He also has several tranquilizer darts that he'll be able to shoot with his gun, as well as some other sleeping and sedative powders that Denji can use to on the dogs. He just has to be careful to not be hit with it.]

We should try to lure the dogs back in small groups. That way the other crew members can carry them back to the ship while we return to lure the next group. If any guards follow...

[A poignant pause.]

...You can do whatever you want.

[Brutal, perhaps, but Eustace doesn't really care about the people here. While some of the dogs may have been treated better, there were others that were not so. Regardless, they deserved a better life than stuck here on this island with an owner like that.]

[Denji was pleasantly surprised when Eustace reached out to him for such an important mission, heading back to that island filled with massive dogs who'd chased them down after stealing a bunch of loot from the rich snob's mansion. This time however they weren't looking to cause chaos but instead save said dogs from their nefarious owner who presumably only kept them to keep his treasure trove intact. The teenager happened to really like dogs given his own pet devil resembled one save for a few differences with the chainsaw protruding out its forehead and a pull cord for a tail. So it was only natural he wanted to help them out and quickly agreed to aid his partner in crime on this endeavor.

After making their way to the island in question with a much larger ship this time and a handful of crewmates who wished to assist them in this noble quest, Denji stuffs his pockets with doggy sleeping treats along with a few bagged powder bombs looped into his belt to take care of any bigger groups. Listening to his counterpart explain their course of action the boy nods along in understanding as a fiendish grin creeps over his lips at the mention of how they could deal with those pesky guards who tried to run them down in their last venture here.]

Alright I'll do my best and if any of those asshole guards try to stop us I'll just fuck them up real good.

[His companion knew all too well by now after their last adventure hunting down those annoying merfolk who were luring them in with their seductive techniques even if they had little effect on the feral teenager himself. He wasn't into fish people not to mention guys in general so he was more than happy to dispatch of them with relative ease. Curling his hands tightly into fists before pointing out with his left hand, Denji pumps himself up for the task at hand waiting for Eustace's cue to head out.]

Lets do this!!

[He's still not sure if he should be concerned or not, but—]

Keep it down.

[—for now he'll just give Denji a light smack to the back of his head as he reminds the teen that they need to keep quiet if they want the advantage.]

Let's scout around and try to find some dogs that are on the far side where there will be less attention of a commotion happens. We need to test and make sure these are even effective.

[Otherwise it'll be too dangerous for both sides and they'll have to come back again with a different tactic.]

[The unhinged teenager gives Eustace a questionable look but says nothing in regards to the smack, nodding reluctantly in agreement as he tries his best to keep his excitement contained for the time being. It wouldn't do well to give away their position before they even had tested out the tranquilizers for the unsuspecting doggies they had planned to save from the clutches of this dick head noble here.]

Whatever you say man...I'll follow your lead until we come across any guards who spot us then I'll do what I do best.

[His counterpart certainly knows Denji can handle these buffoons after their last stint together, fighting off those weirdo mermen who thought they could seduce him. Too bad he doesn't like dicks to begin with so that wasn't going to pan out very well from the start nor did their effects work on Chainsaw man given he could barely hear them over the revving of his own engines.]

[A small exhale. At least he can count on Denji to listen...so far, anyway. time will tell how well it will really go...

For now, he gestures for Denji to follow, and it'll be a little bit of a hike before they reach the far side of the manor. With his sensitive hearing, he can pick up a few sounds...before he nods at Denji, leading him a little closer before ducking down behind an old brick wall.]

There's one on the other side.

[It's always a toss up on the day what Denji might do in the heat of the moment, sometimes he was willing to listen to others advice or completely disregard it causing chaos. Thankfully Eustace was someone the boy held respect towards and knew he wouldn't take any bullshit from him especially on a mission of such high importance. In truth he was honored to be called upon to join him for this endeavor and would do his absolute best not to make a mess of things like he did last time they were on the island.

As they crept behind a decrepit wall his counterpart uses their superior hearing to scout out their first target just up the way. Poking the top of his head over top just enough that he can see a pair of large canines posted up, Denji nods in understanding as he pulls one of the sleeping powder bombs from his pocket ready to throw it at the burly dogs in question.]

Don't worry I got this...You just say the word and I'll show you my sick throwing arm.

[Ready and waiting for his partner in crime to give the go ahead so they might get this covert operation underway. It kind of made the teenager feel like he was in some sort of spy movie which was pretty damn cool.]

[He glances at Denji and nods, giving one last precursory look. It seems the dogs have noticed that something is around, their ears perked and noses sniffing the air. Seeing this, he looks at Denji and waves with his hand.

CHUCK IT, DENJI!!]

[Eustace didn't have to say anything after flashing the weary look in his eyes followed up in short by the wave of his hand gesturing. Biting his lower lip as he winds up his arm the boy aims the sleeping powder right smack dab between the two dogs in question, bag breaking open to omit a light dust into the air. Their noses perk up looking about for any signs of commotion before they both yawn out in exhaustion, plopping onto the ground with a loud thud as they fall fast asleep.

Raising both his arms up the arm victoriously, Denji chuckles out unabashedly as he looks back towards his partner in crime giving him a light smack on his shoulder. This was all going according to plan so far, maybe this wouldn't be nearly as chaotic as their last venture here after all!]

Hell yeah, Eustace!! That shit you brought worked like a charm!!

[He's actually relieved to see the bag work...

...Only to then grow annoyed at the sudden smack that makes him sway slightly before he glares at Denji.]

Keep it down.

[Does he want to alert the rest??? Well, might not be the worst since they have to lure them, anyway, but he'd rather it be controlled!!!]

[Raising his hands in the air defensively in front of himself as Denji bears that signature toothy grin before he rubs a hand along the back of his neck awkwardly. Perhaps he was getting a bit too excitable with the task at hand but it wasn't everyday you got to infiltrate someone's home and steal away their dogs for a good cause. As terrible as it may have looked they were actually doing them a favor getting them off this rock and giving them a better life not bound to serve this rich asshole who treated them as nothing more than guards to protect his treasury.]

My bad, my bad. I'm just hyped up to save these dogs from this rich prick job. They deserve better.

[Having dealt with the first batch of dogs their hired on counterparts snuck forward to corral them all up and gently move them back to the ship. Looking back towards Eustace the hybrid gives him a solid nod as he makes ready to move onto the next.]

Lets keep goin' before they notice some of their doggos are missing, eh?

[He just lets out a small exhale as he watches the dogs taken away carefully. Only after seeing them disappear into the trees does he nod.]

This way.

[And with that, by listening carefully to their surroundings, Eustace will guide Denji a bit closer towards the house, though still keeping behind near that wall they were by. As suspected, there were two or three dogs around here.]

Same as before. Ready?

[As they move further from the ship's location, drawing closer to the estate the pair come across another batch of dogs protecting the nearby surroundings. This time some guardsmen were close by walking the perimeter of the house so they would need to either dispatch of them quickly if they were hoping not to rouse suspicions or knock them out as well.

Turning towards Eustace the teenager points out the problematic situation, keeping quiet this time as to make sure they weren't spotted. It would make things a whole lot simpler if their position wasn't compromised and far less bloodshed on Denji's part.]

We got some company…Think you can shoot’em or should we just knock’em out too?

[Either way worked for him, Denji having no qualms about taking them out given their affiliation with the snob who owned this island.]

[Hm. Eustace considers their options before bringing up his gun.]

I can knock them out with a single shot, but the dogs will likely notice and come over to investigate. You'll need to be quick so they don't sound an alarm.

[Silently nodding in understanding at Eustace's plan of action, Denji makes ready to toss another set of sleeping bombs at the group of dogs after his counterpart takes out the ensuing guardsmen. This would be a little trickier than last time but he's hopeful they can carry out their plan without alerting any other guards before they corralled the rest of the dogs safely. It wouldn't bode well if they started to attack them and they had to use alternative means of force which the teenager wouldn't use against them anyways, taking the brunt of the assault if he truly had to.

When his counterpart lines up the shot he pulls two bags of the sleeping concoction out from his pockets ready to throw them on cue. A surge of lightning emits out the barrel spreading through the pair of guards as they violently writhe out in pain before dropping to the ground unceremoniously. As the dogs go over to look at their masters he launched the two bags at them, watching as the three fell over with a soft thud. Grinning wide from ear to ear the boy holds up a hand for a high five as at their successfully combined efforts.]

Fuck yeah- We did it! Don't leave me hangin' dude!

[Really, was there any doubt that he could make the shot? So as both the guardsmen and then the dogs fall as planned, he just lets out a small exhale but stays on the alert as he shoots Denji a look.]

Don't celebrate too soon.

[And as if on cue, there is the sound of dogs running towards their location and Eustace already has his gun poised and ready to use if necessary.]

Get the next batch.

[Before he knew it the sound of encroaching footsteps along with loud barking could be heard on the horizon, rounding the corner of the estate to come face to face with the spectacle. Blinking wide Denji gives a teasing wave towards the assailants, rummaging through his pockets to try and find anymore bags of sleeping powder but coming out short, turning them inside out as he looks towards Eustace with a concerned look washing over his features.]

S-Shit- I'm all out!!

[Gritting his teeth the feral teenager smirks wide followed in short by a burst of amused laughter, a hand moving to the pull cord which protrudes out the front of his chest now.]

Looks like we gotta do this my way now...You get the dogs I'll take care of these dickhead guards!!

[Without out any further delay he yanks the pullcord forcefully causing his hybrid transformation, roaring to life as the signature chainsaws rip through flesh and bone over his limbs on cue. Rushing towards the guards at full tilt he can only hope his counterpart has a plan to deal with the dogs themselves whilst he gets rid of the scum.]

TIME TO TAKE OUT THE TRASH!! GONNA TEAR YOU BASTARDS TO PIECES FOR HOW YOU TREATED THESE DOGGOS!!

Wait—!

[But it's too late. That cord's been ripped and Eustace just can press his palm to his brows before he gets up from his position.]

Crazy bastard...

[A low mutter under his breath as he leaves Denji to deal with the guards to get to the dogs that are quickly running to them. He didn't want to do this, but they don't really have much of a choice now.

First, he'll cast out wall of lightning, bolts forming a chain-like lattice fence to separate the dogs from the guards and cutting them off from Denji.]

Here!

[A quick shout to get their attention on him before darting off.]

[He's thankful for Eustace’s aid in separating the guards from the canines for he had no quarrel with the beasts, only the villainous men who paraded the animals around as their subordinates. They deserved better than to lead a life of servitude under the rule of this rich fool who oversaw this island and the pair had come to rectify this. Unfortunately their course of action didn't completely pan out as expected but Denji had been ready and waiting for this opportunity in truth. The bastards didn't deserve to live if they were going to subject these innocent creatures to such a harsh reality and would gladly snuff out their lives showing their would be ruler that money couldn't solve everything.

Surging forward with a chaotic burst of laughter the maniacal hybrid swiftly cut down the first guard before he was even able to draw their own firearm, slicing the man down the middle causing his upper half to flop onto the ground unceremoniously as the other quivered out in fear at the mere sight.]

YOU'RE NEXT ASSHOLE!! THIS IS WHAT YOU GET FOR TREATIN’ THESE DOGS LIKE THIS!!

[Begging out for mercy there was none to be had as the roaring chainsaws chop both the arms off the next victim, cries out in terror likely to bring more attention. Almost on cue the sound of sirens echoed throughout the island proper causing the devil boy to snarl out loudly, flailing his weaponized arms out at his side as he awaits the next volley.]

C’MON THEN. I’LL TAKE YOU ALL DOWN UNTIL YOU'RE ALL DEAD AND CAN'T HURT ANYONE NO MORE!!

[...Once again.

Crazy bastard.

He has to really wonder about Denji whenever he goes into this "chainsaw" mode, but that's something for later. For now, he has to stop the dogs from going back, and when they do shift he fires another ray of lightning to keep them on him. Of course, his worry is dogs that may come from another direction, so he can only hope that at least some are attracted to him.

And when he does manage to get them closer to the boundary, he'll throws a smoke grenade, one filled with the same substance as the satchels Denji used. The grenade has a larger spread, made specifically for this kind of scenario, and once the grenade detonates it releases the smoke, the dog staggering before falling to the ground. By now the others had heard the commotion and while some are heading towards Denji in case for support, others are quick to grab the dogs as Eustace runs off to try and bait any others.]

[Nothing to worry about here Eustace this was just another day in the life of Denji, more tame than back home if he was going to be completely honest. As his counterpart does his part to keep the dogs at bay with the lightning cage the hybrid focused efforts on the assaulting guards with their firearms drawn upon him. Surging forward he is unable to close the gap betwixt them in time before they fire upon his person, striking true in the left shoulder and stomach respectively.]

FUCK THAT HURT! NAH...JUST KIDDIN' NOW ITS TIME TO RETURN THE FAVOR!

[Finally drawing upon the pair of armed individuals, Denji quickly dispatches of the first one swiftly cutting them down with a slash down the torso. Turning his full attention to the next one he looks to heal the gunshot wounds to his torso by taking a nice sizeable chomp out of the guardsmen's left shoulder causing the arm to dangle lifeless at their side screaming out in terror. Gulping back the flesh and blood in full it seems as though his injuries are almost instantly mended.]

YOU TASTE NASTY AS HELL BUT THAT'S WHAT YOU GET FOR SHOOTIN' ME ASSHOLE!!

[Eustace can stomach a lot of things as he's seen quite a lot, but Denji certainly pushes his limits. Even from his periphery he has to look away and just focus on the dogs instead. By their information, there should be on more group, and fortunately they are running right towards him along with other guards.

Dropping down to his knee, he aims and shoots down the guards, lightning bouncing off between them while avoiding the dogs. He'll run back, making sure to increase the distance between the dogs and remaining guards as he heads to the trees, and he'll receive backup from the other crew that fire their own weapons and spells at the guards while another launches another smoke bomb.

Leaving the rest, he grits his teeth and turns to Denji to head over to him. Will there be anything left?]

[This was child's play compared to the usual chaotic state of affairs he found himself in back home, Denji swiftly dispatching of these guardsmen with relative ease. Looking over his shoulder for a split second to make sure the dogs were secured he was thankfully met with the signs of Eustace and their crewmates tending to the passed out canines, ushering them back to the boat promptly before they begin to cover his flank.

The static shock of his partner in crimes rifle is unmistakable as lightning surged through the encroaching assailants making it all too easy for him to cut them down in turn. A maniacal burst of laughter erupts from his sharp toothed maw, glowing yellow eyes staring down his enemies as their cries out in pain echo throughout the island striking fear into the hearts of their comrades. Two more were dispatched of as a singular, rather large dog begins to rush towards the boy. However; When the animal gets close enough it seemingly does not bear its fangs, stopping dead in its tracks as it stands but a few inches from his person. Tilting its head curiously the dog sniffs at the ground near his feet cautiously before looking back up towards him, tongue draped out the side of its mouth panting as it seems to smile up at him completely unfazed by his menacing transformation.]

HUH!? WHAT GIVES BRO YOU AREN'T AFRAID OF ME!?

[While his attention was preoccupied on the puppy standing before him the last of the guardsmen that were patrolling the island as a whole were running at him, lining up their rifles at the hybrid making ready to open fire.]

[Well, Eustace can't blame Denji for being distracted, but this was possibly the worst time for it. Fortunately for him, Eustace is able to fire an array of lightning that strikes down the guardsmen, their agonized screams breaking the silence as Eustace rushes in closer.]

We're leaving, let's go!

[Thankfully Eustace had his back in the momentary lapse of concentration, Denji watching the two approaching guardsmen drop to the ground as the massive dog stands at his feet silently glaring at his hybrid form. When his partner in crime calls for his retreat the devil bears its sharp toothed grin nodding back at his counterpart.]

ALRIGHT, ALRIGHT. LETS GET THE HELL OUTTA HERE.

[Seeing as how the immediate threats have all been dealt with, Denji sees fit to return back to normalcy, causing the dog to tilt its head in confusion. Barking loudly in bewilderment the boy looks towards the dog in question before waving a hand for it to follow along.]

Follow me doggo if you want to get away from these stupid assholes, okay!?

[Turning tail and booking it towards the boat he looks over to see if the canine was still following him. Apparently it took the hint as it was hot on his trail, smirking wide as they catch up to Eustace in tow. Their mission was successful even if there was a few road bumps along the way!]

[Eustace notices the dog following, a little curious but won't question it for now. Not until they reach the ship where the others have carefully placed the still knocked out dogs in kennels with food and water when they awaken.

As the rest of the crew prepare to sail, Eustace looks over at Denji and then the dog.]

Followed you, huh.

[There was little time to spare before any of the remaining guardsmen that could have been bunked down inside the estate owned by the rich asshole who subjugated the dogs to such besmirchment came running at their heels. In truth Denji wished he could have killed all the bastards who aligned themselves with the proprietor of the island but didn't want to put the lives of those willing to aid in this endeavor at further risk or the canines they had successfully rescued. There would be little their would be owner could possibly do now to stop them, perhaps save for throwing an outlandish amount of coin for their apprehension. But after the massacre of their fellow comrades in arms he highly doubts the rest would be so willing to take up arms against the hybrid and his trigger happy partner, the brutal sight of their desecrated corpses put on display littered throughout the grounds more than unsettling and strike fear into their hearts.

As Denji, Eustace and the rest of their crewmates climb aboard their ship procured for this venture along with the canines in full he looks towards the singular dog left conscious which stood idly at his side. Staring down at the pup wagging its tail, tongue draped out the side of its mouth seemingly at ease a sincere smile grows wide over his lips.]

I guess so!

[Kneeling down to scratch under its chin causing its hind leg to thump along the main deck of the charted ship, a light hearted burst of laughter ushers out amusedly before his attention shifts back towards his companion from the ground below.]

Hey, Eustace, I think he likes me.

[Watching, a light grin forms.]

So it would seem. Curious how it managed to stay with the previous bastard... But that does give hope the others will be similar.

[Or maybe the dog is secretly crazy and also likes the crazy that is Denji.]

Maybe it hated this shitty place just as much as we do, huh?

[Patting the dog on the head as they shove off from the island and make way for the port of Nogard where they could find a safe haven for the others rescued in turn. A job well done even if there was a few speed bumps along the way, Denji happy with the results they achieved once again together making a great team if he did say so himself.]

Here's hoping my dude! They deserve to find a way better home than this joint.

[Flipping the island the double bird as he sticks out his tongue childishly with a smug grin, laughing joyously as they sail off into the thick of night.]

[...Really what a child. And while he was also a little concerned about Denji taking a dog, it's clear the dog has found some connection with him. And despite his...murderous abilities, he's not really a bad kid. So it should be fine.]

Then I'll take care of the rest. But if you need help, just let me know.
