Eliott, Savaak, Zora, Bianca and Silas are whisked away through magic to the location of a second target!

They find themselves outside of a ballpark stadium, where their target has been designated as master of ceremonies for a different sort of sport!

Different sort of sport sounds...ominous.

Bee shifts on her feet and chews her lip. Are the gates watched or is it a "free event"?

Eliott is in fact HERE instead, staring at the stadium.

"Do we have a plan or are we just running in?"

That seems to be the plan most of the time.

Unfortunately, the stadium is surrounded by shorter buildings, offering Zora very little in the way of a sniper's perch.

There are guards, but they don't seem to be paying much attention to the people shuffling in.

"We are NOT just running in. There are no tanks on this team." He notes, smoothing out his skirt.

"We should just kill him from far away and leave."

She frowns. Is it an open stadium? If so, what is the situation with the stadium lights?

"Running in is generally a good way to get hurt." Bee grimaces. "The people at the gate don't seem to be paying much attention, though. We could probably sidle in with them if we stick to the middle.

"I could always head in an alternate way but...that'd probably draw attention."

"The more low key, the better." Savaak agrees with a nod, looking for a good spot to try and insert themselves with the people going inside.

"You don't expect me to wear this for the whole mission." He mutters to Zora.

"I'm a dead giveaway."

Eliott glances down at the tutu when Silas speaks but chooses not to ask.

"Very well. Acting casual."

If there's nothing else, Eliott would pretend to be part of the crowd to shuffle her way through.

There is a dome to the stadium, but it's halfway open! There are lights on the dome itself to illuminate the field.

There's a slow but steady stream of people heading inside, making it easy to slip in the crowd if they so choose.

Silas checks to see how people were dressed entering the stadium as he waits for other people to post.

Savaak glances at Silas, amused, then shrugs and looks back to the crowd.

"See you in there, then. Unless we have something else." If not, she'll go find a place to join the crowd.

Silas finds the people are in everyday clothing, albeit dirty and in disrepair.

Eliott is waved through without incident.

As she enters, she finds the hallway leads into the stands. Out on the field, there's several large cages with open tops, each with varying violent activities.

One has two men fighting each other hand to hand.

Another has a woman being torn apart by dogs.

A third has three men beating on a fourth, taking turns holding him up for the others to hit him.

Savaak sees this as well!

Bee heads along with Savaak, focused on blending in, but also keeping a discreet watch out!

Eliott averts her eyes when she sees the cage with the lady and dogs, paling. That's the sort of thing she never wanted to see in person.

Since he's the master of ceremonies, she assumes the target in question will show up at some point, so she pretends to be looking for a seat, searching for anyone that looks in charge in the field.

To hell with it.

Silas walks in too after smearing some dirt on himself, looking higher up for the skyboxes/ He checks to see where the important people sit as he takes note of the scene as well.

Zora frowns, she was going to get bee to help her lug her gear up! She lingers around the perimeter to find a place to climb.

Savaak quickly looks away fro the cage with the dog fight, listening to any conversation around her as Bi joins her. There's no smiling today.

Time to find a place that's out of the way.

Bee sees the same thing!

Silas is given strange looks, but not stopped!

Zora could conceivably climb one of the decorative statues off to the side, but it'd be a tough leap to make it to the stadium's second story windows from there.

Eliott and all of those inside hear cheering as the lights pan upwards, illuminating this man as he stands at the VIP box with a microphone!

"Are you enjoying your appetizers, my people?"

He sounds almost... conflicted, to use that term.

Silas sees if he can make it up to that box discretely.

If Zora has comms, she could say, buuuuuuut...

She pales at the sights - mostly the gang-punching and the dogs attacking the lady - and clears her throat against a bit of bile. Ugh. She immediately starts looking around. Any place she could disappear to, and up, without causing a scene?

"Bee," she whispers over comms. "How easily could you get back out here?"
