Owen had one comrade, for now. That was a good start, and this man certainly seemed qualified to utilize the power of the Red suit. But for the first time since Michael's joining, a Precious had appeared on Owen's scanners.
"Looks like we have a job," Owen told Michael.

When your boss tells you that we have a job you do one of two things: one you either follow his lead and hoped for the best...or you see where the job goes and if things go south then you take charge...better to take charge and get fired then get yourself killed
"Where's the job?" Michael asked as he put on his signature sunglasses, he had met Owen and his first impression was that he was a hard man to crack, he seemed extremely cautious, almost to the point of paranoid but then again when looking for ancient artefacts one have to be cautious.

"Looks to be an old castle in Ireland. Interesting site, wouldn't you say?" Owen asked him.

"Ireland? What's there to find? Braveheart's Sword?" Michael jokingly asked.

"Who knows," Owen replied, "Anything could be a Precious. Even a sword such as that. What Braveheart would be doing with a sword like that, I don't know," Owen made a weak joke, then realized it didn't quite work, "Anyway, Ireland." He didn't think covering that joke with his quick statement was effective.

"Aha..." Michael said as he got up and followed Owen making sure to note down when the Precious was found and where it was located...he would then need to make a full report to the CIA once the recovery was done.

"I've booked us a jet, private, we'll be there in an hour, I'd assume."
Owen got his gear together that he used outside of Ranger form, "Let's get ready and go."

"Yeah..." Michael said as he got his gear as well before saying, "lets go."

Their flight lasted about an hour, and they were set down right near an old castle which looked fairly structurally sound, yet very old, too out of shape to be used as a proper tourist attraction.
"Nobody around, that'll make the job easier," Owen said, starting towards the castle.

When going into unknown territory you need to be on the lookout for a lot of things, especially old ruins like an abandoned castle, traps, ambushes and the occasional C4 strapped to a table or chair will often take your by surprised and get you killed
"Careful" Michael said, "we don't even know if there's a trap set in this place...and anyway we need to be on the lookout for anymore people who wants to take the Precious" he then looked around him to see if there was going to be any form of trouble but all was quiet on the homefront but nevertheless Michael continued on behind Owen ready to jump to the slightest signs of danger.

"I'm not sure how many people would know of them," Owen told him, "What we need to beware are the Dark Spirits that were released by them. At least, that's what I'd think. And most of the time, they'll take on a non-corporeal form, so trying to keep a look out for them is going to be very hard."

"Yeah sure" Michael said forgetting about the Dark Spirits that was floating around within the Precious.

"Well, shall we split up? Cover more ground, and all that?" he asked, eyeing the castle.

It is never a good idea to split up in enemy territory, that's a very good way to get yourself killed, even the most basic special forces grunt know better than to split up
"Actually I think its better if we stick close together, that way we can defend each other if things go bad" Michael said.

Owen nodded, "You're right; you're completely right. Let's stick together, then."
