T3chn0Namagomi: aim:gochat?roomname=doomsdayooc
Female Pretense: (truth!)
T3chn0Namagomi: *As we left our protagonists last time, Nezetta just got a bullet torn out of her by vacuum, she and Deeum are blind, Myrnal's having enjoyed killing guards, and Zeke is ready to off a bunch of executives*
Arch mage144: (I am ready whenever)
Marshmallow DM
: Grrah.Damn flashbombs *still rubbing her eyes*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Zeke's right. Who budgets in that many flash grenades? I have to wonder how many people they expect to blind in a single day.
Arch mage144
: IM: OK. Now.
T3chn0Namagomi
: (Apparently Sarah says Shini's having brother troubles)
Arch mage144: (OK)
Arch mage144
: These guys need to be taken care of.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Zeke...
Lithaladhwen
: *sigh* Probably.
Arch mage144
: *glances at Nezetta* Hm? What? You want to let them go run for help?
Arch mage144
: *is anyone in this room on the target list?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *...Doesn't look like it*
TheWaiChibiAngel: ...No...
Arch mage144
: Well. None of them is on the list.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...The soldiers. Check them for..more bombs.
Arch mage144
: Sure. *does*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Just random rich-ass bigwigs*
Arch mage144: *in fact, while he's doing that, Zeke will also take any ammunition that will fit his revolvers*
Lithaladhwen
: Hey Zeke. Any more of those Valthi stilettos?
Marshmallow DM
: What about thse guys? *motions in their (hopefully) direction*
Arch mage144: We need to deal with these bodies, but those guys are gonna cause a ruckus if we let them.
Arch mage144
: If you're opposed to their deaths, whatever. Knock them out. They're not our targets.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Those are nice. I only need the one, after all.
Arch mage144
: Neither were these guys. They just got in the way.
Arch mage144
: You can search them for sharp objects in a minute, Myrnal.
Lithaladhwen
: *grin* I just may.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *One of the shielders seems to have ammo for Zeke's revolver...about 6 shots outside of the gun*
Arch mage144: *yay*
Arch mage144
: *claim*
Arch mage144
: *flash grenades?*
Arch mage144
: *or other grenades, really*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There seems to be an odd blue canister on one of the dead riflers*
Arch mage144: *Valthi knowledge check!*
KnightsofSquare
has entered the room.
Marshmallow DM: *Squints* Right, how is everyone? And I think we really need to hurry up. *listens for foot steps*
Lithaladhwen: I'm fine. *sheathes one knife* How 'bout you? You need a hand?
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Moves her hand over her chest, and does a slightly better healing spell than she used before, trying to make everything feel good :-(*
Marshmallow DM
: I'd be nice to see more then blobs and spots right about down.
Arch mage144: Hopefully the blast didn't permanently fuck up your eyes.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *It's recognizable as a grenade of some sort. Definitely not a flash grenade, but still a grenade of some kind*
Lithaladhwen: *shifty eyes*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Oh, hell.
Lithaladhwen
: *offers Deeum an arm so she doesn't bump into shit*
Arch mage144
: This one's not a flasher, but it's a grenade. I don't actually know what kind.
Arch mage144
: *attaches it to his belt*
Marshmallow DM
: *takes it after a few misses*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Nezetta's totally cured of anythign related to hurting*
T3chn0Namagomi: *and Deeum doesn't hear any footsteps for the moment...*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *And her eyes?8
T3chn0Namagomi
: *She can still only see blobs. It'll take a bit more for her eyes to go back into focus*
Arch mage144: Myrnal? Can you drag those bodies into this room and close the door?
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Well then, she's at least going to sit up. :O*
Lithaladhwen
: Yeah, sure.
Lithaladhwen
: Deeum, hang on a sec.
Lithaladhwen
: *does as requested*
Marshmallow DM
: Go ahead. I'm find for now.
Arch mage144: *while Myrnal's taking care of that, approaches the corp bigwigs, guns drawn*
Arch mage144
: IM: Somehow I doubt that these guys are the masters of self-defense.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *They're shaking...oh yes. Definitely shaking*
Arch mage144: -Alright, this is simple, people. You listen to me and you get to live.-
Arch mage144
: -I'm not here for you bastards.-
T3chn0Namagomi
: -O...okay...-
Arch mage144: -Everybody turn and face the wall. Now!-
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Looks vaguely in Zeke's direction*
Lithaladhwen
: *finishes attending to dead people and goes back to help Deeum*
Arch mage144
: You alive, Nez?
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Yes, thank you. Trying to get my eyesight back. e_<
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Fearing for their lives, they do as told*
Arch mage144: Sure. You keep working on that.
Arch mage144
: IM: Damnit, having a bunch of blind allies is a pain.
Marshmallow DM
: *shakes her hand at Myrnal* I'm ok now, I can see somewhat better now *assuming!*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Things start to look like shapes, though quite blurry, to Deeum and Nezetta*
Arch mage144: As awesome as I am, I can't incapacitate this many people by myself. Not fast enough.
Lithaladhwen
: I'm not good at pulling punches, Zeke. It's hard to only stab someone a little.
Arch mage144
: Also, I would ordinarily suggest that we take a hostage, but I don't think that'll work here.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: I doubt they care very mcuh about these guys...
Arch mage144
: You're probably right.
Arch mage144
: Got a sleep spell or something?
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Not unless kicking them in the head until they pass out counts.
Arch mage144
: That works.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Stands!*
Arch mage144
: I don't care if you kill one by accident, I just don't want them following us.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Can she do so without feeling like death?*
Arch mage144
: Or shouting an alarm.
Arch mage144
: I promised the
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Yes. She can.*
Arch mage144: *they'd live, but I don't honestly give a fuck.
Arch mage144
: These guys help finance the guns they're shooting us with.
Marshmallow DM
: And the flash bombs.
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Sweeeeet.*
Marshmallow DM
: Lets not forget those e_o
Arch mage144: Yeah, and the flash bombs. Kazeros.
Arch mage144
: *muttering*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Begins over to the execs. How many are there?*
Arch mage144
: (11)
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Well then!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *First one's gonna get a knee to the crotch, then a BOOT TO DA HEAD*
Arch mage144
: IM: Damn. She doesn't mess around.
Arch mage144
: IM: That's kinda hot.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Good job. You just kneed a woman in the crotch*
T3chn0Namagomi: *anyway, the first exec gets knocked out*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Next!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *She's gonna move on, nice and calm. Look this one over. What's he look like?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *A fatass.*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Well then.*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *He's going to get kicked in the stomach, then a downward axe kick when he's doubled over.8
Arch mage144
: IM: Really doesn't mess around.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: That's kinda hot.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And so...Nezetta conks all of them out*
Arch mage144: IM: Hmm.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *One by one, of course. And her and Deeum's sight improve...*
Arch mage144: *checks to see if the rich people are carrying wallets*
Arch mage144
: *or some equivalent*
Marshmallow DM
: *Can she count her fingers ?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Nope. They left them at home. And yes, Deeum can count her fingers!*
Arch mage144: IM: Damn. Bastards should have had some money on them.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Sighs*
Arch mage144
: *hey, what's in this break room anyway? Water cooler? Tables?*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Well.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: I feel better.
Arch mage144
: I hope so.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Yep. Tables, coffee, water cooler, that kind of stuff*
Marshmallow DM: *just getting to where she can see* Holy damn, you should *look sat the bodies*
Arch mage144: *grabs himself a cup of water* Ahhh.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...Hey, is that water?
Arch mage144
: Yeah. *drinks* Not that we get much of a break.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Some is better than none.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Tries to figure out how the hell this zany system works*
Arch mage144
: Pull up on that lever.
Lithaladhwen
: *watches*
Arch mage144
: *observes Nez's struggling with the water cooler*
Marshmallow DM
: *does too.. well, asmuch as she can at the moment*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Does*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: That's kind of neat.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Nobody has heard much related to footsteps recently*
Arch mage144: *finishes his water and discards the cup* Alright, the executives have likely been warned of the intruders or whatever.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Takes a couple cups of water. Man, she can drink. :-(*
Arch mage144
: *cracks his neck* IM: Ow.
Lithaladhwen
: So either they assume the guards they sent were enough, or they send more.
Lithaladhwen
: Which do you think?
Arch mage144
: They're not going to report in.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: They'll probably send more wh-Yes.
Arch mage144
: So they're going to send more.
Lithaladhwen
: Then shouldn't we move on before they get a chance to realize we killed their guys?
Arch mage144
: Yeah.
Marshmallow DM
: That's what I've been saying *picks up her shield and looks for anything else of value. any things they could use besides the bombs?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Well, there are those shields that three of the guards were carrying*
TheWaiChibiAngel: Hmm...
Marshmallow DM
: *how badly damaged?*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Are any of the uniforms in particularly good condition?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There's two shields that look like they're in good condition. No magic about them, obviously*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And as for uniforms...two look untouched, but they'd be hell to take off of those frozen bodies*
Marshmallow DM: Think we could use the shields as a quick disguse?
Arch mage144: We'd need uniforms. Those shields pretty good, though.
Arch mage144
: *are
Arch mage144
: Not my style, though. Too bulky.
Marshmallow DM
: It'd distract them just enough for us to hit them first.
Arch mage144: Heh. Go ahead and take one, then.
Marshmallow DM
: *takes one of the less bloody ones!*
Arch mage144: Let's make it quick and get out of here. I don't feel like holing up in the break room for round two.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Taking a uniform would be good.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Granted, there's probably not many to fit anyone but Zeke...
Lithaladhwen
: It would be. I'm not carving one off, though.
Arch mage144
: *looks at the bodies* You pretty much froze the fabric to their skin.
Arch mage144
: Nice touch, by the way.
Lithaladhwen
: Plus, I'm not changing here. *glance at Zeke* You girls can if you like.
Arch mage144
: *grinning like a loon*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: I never said change here.
Marshmallow DM
: .. No, i'm fine.
Arch mage144: You know what we can do, though.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The shields in question seem to be large, white, and rectangular in shape, with black strip across the top and bottom*
Arch mage144: *looks at the businessmen*
Arch mage144
: ...nah, that'll never work. They ask for ID and we're screwed.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Then take one of the IDs, too.
Arch mage144
: I don't look like any of these guys!
Arch mage144
: ...though that's easy to fix.
Marshmallow DM
: How do you think I feel? You're not the one with pointy ears.
Arch mage144: *snaps fingers* I've got it.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Zeke and Deeum pick up the noise of what sounds like more footsteps...*
Marshmallow DM: Hurryhurry!
Arch mage144: ...this is not going to feel good.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Is there another way out of this room?
Arch mage144
: (Footsteps coming at our position?)
Marshmallow DM
: *looks around and ever at the ceiling*
Marshmallow DM: Even*
T3chn0Namagomi: *No, there isn't a way out. There's only the one door, and there's still the blood and corpses*
Arch mage144: ...wait, no, too much of a mess for that to work.
Arch mage144
: Damnit! We're just going to have to make a break for it.
Arch mage144
: Out the door and down the hall to the right. Let's go!
Marshmallow DM
: I'll cover!
Arch mage144: *opens door, checks hallway quickly for guards, goes!*
Lithaladhwen
: *follows right behind him*
Marshmallow DM
: *Follows last with the shield in hand*
T3chn0Namagomi: *No guards can be seen for the moment. From looking out the door, the footsteps can be heard from the left*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Move! Move!*
Arch mage144
: *yeah, totally going right!*
Marshmallow DM
: We better as hell find the right damn door this time.
Marshmallow DM: and hope the guys we need haven't fled.
Arch mage144: IM: This has gotten messy.
Arch mage144
: IM: I don't like it when this shit happens. Jobs should be cleaner than this.
Lithaladhwen
: We still have to get out, too.
Lithaladhwen
: That's going to be fun.
Arch mage144
: I don't suppose any of you can fly.
Marshmallow DM
: I can. But I
TheWaiChibiAngel: .....No.
Arch mage144
: Wait. You can?
Marshmallow DM
: I'm not sure if I can carry all of you.
Arch mage144: We'll burn that bridge when we come to it.
Arch mage144
: *hallway, hallway, where are we now?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There seems to be a very sharp 120 degree right turn where they are*
T3chn0Namagomi: *No straight*
Arch mage144: *go that way*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Following!* *w* Do we have any idea where we're going?
Arch mage144
: *w* If we went left, we'd be back at the door we came through.
Arch mage144
: *w* Where the door said "executive branch"
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There seems to be a 60 degree right branch and a straight path. Which way?*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* Isn't that where we need to be?
Arch mage144
: *w* We went through it to get here
Arch mage144
: *w* This must be the executive wing of the building. We just have to find their offices.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: I'm just following Zeke. He's more familiar with this crap, and I doubt he's trying to get us all killed. After all, I don't think he's given up trying to have sex with us.
Arch mage144
: *straight*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* Wait, so, we're here now?
Arch mage144
: *w* I think so.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w*...Right...
Arch mage144
: *w* The door said so.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: BEES.
Marshmallow DM
: *just following with a little bit of protection in the back*
T3chn0Namagomi: *For the time being...it sounds like they've lost the guards. Nobody hears any footsteps*
Arch mage144: *that's good*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There seems to be a 60 degree right turn. No straight.*
Arch mage144: *continue that way*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *After another 60 degree turn, there seems to be a door on the left, a path straight, and what seems to be a path to the right*
Arch mage144: *door! listen*
Marshmallow DM
: *any signs? That'd be nice*
Arch mage144: *bees don't have signs*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *One sign*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Which is in Valthi*
Arch mage144: *literate*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *It reads --Chief Executive Officer: Appointments only--*
Arch mage144: *w* Chief Exec's office.
Arch mage144
: *draws a pistol*
Marshmallow DM
: *anyone in there?*
Arch mage144: *opens the door!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Prepares!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: This is going to hurt.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Upon opening the door, Zeke seems to see a nice, nice room. Well, nice in a Valthi sense. The entire back is one large window, and there seems to be a man fitting the picture of the CEO sitting in a chair. He seemed to have*
T3chn0Namagomi: *been talking to a guard about something when you opened the door. To the left side is a bookshelf that looks...a bit crooked, anyway*
Arch mage144: *leaps into the room--there is going to be shooting!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: CEO: -The intruders?!-
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
Arch mage144: -You bet your ass!-
Marshmallow DM
: Get him!
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *The CEO himself, well...gets the hell down while the guard kicks the desk over, using that as cover*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Ducks back behind the wall, in the hall!*
Marshmallow DM
: *Shielder front!*
Marshmallow DM: Right, guys. try to stay behind me if you use ranged attacks. We don't need anymore people getting shot!
Lithaladhwen: No shit.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *suddenly, from behind the bookshelf, a soldier pops out from the side and takes a shot at Zeke, who leapt in first*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The rifle bullet goes straight into the mercenary's torso, going through the armor*
Arch mage144: !
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: Damnit!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: This is all going to hell!
Arch mage144
: >_< -FUCK!-
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Spins into the room- The gunner that just shot isn't behind cover, is he?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *He is. That bookcase*
Marshmallow DM: Kick that sumbitch DOWN on him!
Marshmallow DM: (Er..)
TheWaiChibiAngel: Hmph!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Stands back, and waits for that soldier to open himself up*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The other guard seems to have taken advantage of this, and while keeping herself behind the knocked-over desk as cover, she takes a potshot at Nezetta*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And the bullet misses, barely whizzing by the dragon, and impacting into the wall*
Lithaladhwen: *Rather irritated by the guard behind the bookshelf, Myrnal readies her returning dagger and waits for him to emerge again. She doesn't care where it hits him, as long as it comes back covered in blood.*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: Pathetic.
KnightsofSquare
has left the room.
Marshmallow DM: *Deeum takes not of the bookshelf and decides to help coax the guy out. By that she means bust the god damn thing down. She jumps into a heavy run and slams into the bookshelf hoping
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
Marshmallow DM: to break it or knock it over onto the guard*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The bookshelf is jostled a bit, and a couple of books fall out...one almost beaning the CEO on the head, even...but the guard isn't exactly convinced or stuck*
Marshmallow DM: *blames the fact she can't see that well. that's it*
Arch mage144: *grits his teeth, kneeling down a little from the pain, and uses his free hand to pull the grenade from his belt*
Arch mage144
: IM: At least the bullet passed through...I think...>.o Fire and worry about the pain in a minute.
Arch mage144
: *pitches the grenade at the CEO and guard behind the desk*
Arch mage144
: IM: I don't care what kind of grenade that is.
Arch mage144
: -You are SO GOING TO REGRET PUTTING THOSE IN THE BUDGET!-
T3chn0Namagomi
: *the grenade lands behind the desk...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *...and spews out thick gray smoke*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The guard and CEO seem to be enveloped in the stuff, anyway*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Meanwhile, taking advantage of the oppurtunity presented, the guard behind the bookshelf fires a shot at Nezetta, who just got done dodging the other*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The shot from the bookshelf guard ends up HURTING. A lot. It somehow goes right through Nezetta's armored coat, and nails her straight in the torso, going right out the other end*
TheWaiChibiAngel: Agh!
Lithaladhwen
: *Taking the opportunity to punch a hole in the guy shooting at her allies, Myrnal sends her returning dagger to show her appreciation.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The knife flies accurately, lodging itself in the gunner and slightly electrocuting him before flying back*
Lithaladhwen: *catch-grin*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *It didn't sink as far in as hoped, though...the armor he wore absorbed most of the inertia*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Raises her hand, and channels a simple ice spell through it, hoping to freeze the one who shot her from the other side. She's pissed, damnit. :-(*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The ice spell seems to have a pretty damn nasty effect. Maybe pissiness really does help, but either way, that soldier freezes to death right then and there*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Nice. She had first rights on him anyway.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Drops her hand.* IM: Fucker.
Lithaladhwen
: *Myrnal attempts to use the smoke as concealment to sneak up on the guard using the desk for cover. Hoping not to be noticed, she attempts to carve them up at some conveniently defenseless moment or other.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Fortunately, the smoke made it easier for her to actually be sneaky,
T3chn0Namagomi: (Oops, didn't mean to hit Enter that soon)
T3chn0Namagomi: *And her strikes hit home...the dagger left a nasty gash, and the katar struck something nasty--some blood sprayed as she sank it into him*
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Nezetta's gonna ignore the fact that she was just shot, for now, and walk forward...*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *...ANd jump over the desk, attempting to land on the guard.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And Nezetta lands on the guard, pretty much sealing any chances of the poor rifler, well, living for a few more seconds*
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *The CEO is still cowering behind the desk, and gets up, trying to run...*
Lithaladhwen: IM: I think I like her. Just so long as she doesn't talk to me.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And then he trips, money falling out of his pockets* -AAAHHH!! MY MONEY! MY MONEY!!! AAAHHHHH!!!-
Lithaladhwen: IM: Oh, for fuck's sake, man.
KnightsofSquare
has entered the room.
Marshmallow DM: *Dropping the huge ass shield, Deeum Leaps onto the desk, pulling out her longsword and goes for a blow against the CEO*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And that sword does what it's probably wanted to do to SOMETHING here for a long time, as it sinks right into the fat man, blood spilling. Despite how advanced technology gets, swords still hurt. A LOT.*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Needless to say, the CEO is quite dead*
TheWaiChibiAngel: ....
Lithaladhwen
: IM: That was dramatic. And messy. ...Excellent.
Arch mage144
: *coughs up a little blood*
Arch mage144
: Goddamn.
Lithaladhwen
: Shit.*glance to Zeke*
Marshmallow DM
: Ok, I am offically aggravated beyond belief.
Lithaladhwen: You, like.... *scowl* You need a potion?
Arch mage144
: Take the bastard's wallet or something, it'll have his ID in it. I hope.
Marshmallow DM
: *who's worse off?*
Arch mage144: (Nez probably looks worse)
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Plops over against the desk*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Likely more blood. Oh, and the smoke's clearing*
Marshmallow DM: *Leaves her sword there for the time being and turns her attention to NEz*
TheWaiChibiAngel: IM: ...I have a hole.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM:...In my chest.
Lithaladhwen
: Zeke. Seriously.
Marshmallow DM
: *Places her hand over the hole*
Marshmallow DM: this is going to hurt.
Arch mage144: I'm...I'll live. I've had worse.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Fine. He doesn't want it he doesn't want it. Whatever.
Arch mage144
: ...*grits his teeth*
Lithaladhwen
: >_>
Arch mage144
: Why, have you got one?
Lithaladhwen
: Yes, you stupid fuck. *pulls it out*
Lithaladhwen
: *hands it to him*
Arch mage144
: >.- Thanks.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Grunts*
Marshmallow DM
: Ok, I have enough for one more..
Marshmallow DM: Then I have to save the rest if we're going to fly out of here.
Marshmallow DM: *looking alittle worse for wear from the mana usage. but walks to Zeke anyway*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Stands, and begins going through the desk.*
Arch mage144
: She's got me. *holds up potion*
Marshmallow DM
: You sure?
Marshmallow DM: Alright, everyone else ok?
Arch mage144: *drinks the potion*
Lithaladhwen
: *checks Zeke to make sure he's all right*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Do I have one. Dumb fuck.
Marshmallow DM
: Searched the fatman?
Arch mage144: *wounds close up* Damn. Much better.
Arch mage144
: Thanks.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Nezetta may also feel weak on the astral side of things*
Lithaladhwen: ¬_¬ Yeah. Sure.
Arch mage144
: *searches the fat man*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Really weak*
Marshmallow DM: *looks around the room for anything else that may intrest them*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Anything neat int he desk?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Just some papers in Valthi*
TheWaiChibiAngel: >_>
TheWaiChibiAngel
: <_<
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Begins pocketing papers!*
Arch mage144
: C'mon, fat man. You've gotta have personal belongings.
Marshmallow DM
: He looks like the type that'll hide the important stuff in his.. pants. Have fun checking there.
Lithaladhwen: Heheh.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There are various coins on the floor. 100-VC coins, mainly*
Marshmallow DM: *prods around the guard*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Looking for things! Anything, really.*
Marshmallow DM
: *the non-frozen one*
Arch mage144: If I need a full cavity search to prove the guy's ID later, break out the gloves.
Lithaladhwen
: *checking out the space behind the bookcase*
Lithaladhwen
: *Stuff? Beecave?*
Lithaladhwen
: *Anything?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Nothing*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Looks like it was just used as a hiding place*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Zeke seems to hear footsteps in the distance again...*
Marshmallow DM: *does the guard have anything pillageable?*
Arch mage144: *does the fat guy have a wallet or ID card or anything?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Fat guy has a wallet, yes. But he has to dig amongst the pockets of his pants*
Arch mage144: *that's okay, Zeke is a professional*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Which has some more 100-VC pieces.*
Arch mage144: *pockets the money* Damn. No identification or anything? What the hell, man.
Marshmallow DM
: *grabs the shield again and heads for the door*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The guard behind the desk has...a green canister on his belt*
Marshmallow DM: He's got another smokebomb on him. Feel free to snatch it.
Arch mage144: *kicks the fat guy's body in the head, stands up* There're people coming! We need to get the hell out of here.
Arch mage144
: *is there a window in this room?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Zeke might remember that Valthi use tattoos for ID*
Arch mage144: (Oh yeah. Good point.)
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And the whole back wall of the room is a window*
Arch mage144: *okay, Zeke puts his guns away and gets out his two-bladed sword, then proceeds to smash the window*
Marshmallow DM
: I guess this is the time we figure out if we sink or swim.
Arch mage144: Myrnal, I've gotta weird request.
Arch mage144
: There's a tattoo on his arm. I need you to cut it off.
Lithaladhwen
: Kay.
Lithaladhwen
: *takes out the knife Zeke gave her a while ago and has at it*
Arch mage144
: !
Arch mage144
: You've still got that knife?
Lithaladhwen
: *she'll go for the tattoo and probably a good margin of skin around it*
Lithaladhwen
: *doesn't pause in her work* Course I do.
Marshmallow DM
: *giving the door a good listen, Deeum walks back to the window and waits for everyone to be ready*
Lithaladhwen: Should I just put this in my pocket, or what?
Arch mage144
: This bastard shot me. *kicks the corpse of the rifleman behind the desk, takes his flash grenade, hefts his body, and throws him out the window*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Oh, nobody will notice that.
Lithaladhwen
: Heh. He did.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: That's a great plan.
Arch mage144
: *grins at Nezetta*
Lithaladhwen
: We're on our way out anyway, I guess.
Arch mage144
: This is something I want to be noticed.
Lithaladhwen
: *displays a nice patch of bloodied skin*
Lithaladhwen
: I can probably just take this.
Arch mage144
: I'd throw fatass out with him, but he's heavy.
Lithaladhwen
: *true to her word, puts the skin in her pocket*
Lithaladhwen
: I'm in all black. Not like it'll stain anything.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Yanna's going to have a fit when she washes this.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...What the hell are you doing?
Marshmallow DM
: How do we, you know go about leaving now?
Lithaladhwen: IM: "MYRNAL! It's covered in blood! Again!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ....What....THe hell....Are you doing?
Lithaladhwen
: Me?
Lithaladhwen
: Taking his identification, Nezetta.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Yes, you.
Lithaladhwen
: *shrug*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ....
Arch mage144
: That tattoo is an identification method.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: .....So you can pass yourself off as him?
Arch mage144
: *rolls up his sleeve*
Arch mage144
: No, they're unique.
Lithaladhwen
: No. So we can prove we killed him.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...
TheWaiChibiAngel
: I think they'll know when they get reports that he's dead.
Lithaladhwen
: Can't take his head, unless you wanted to take his fat ass.
Marshmallow DM
: Guys?
Arch mage144: I like to be thorough.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *the footsteps seem to be getting closer*
Marshmallow DM: We have to go.
Marshmallow DM: NO.
Marshmallow DM: NOW*
Lithaladhwen: Yeah, let's go.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Agreed.
Arch mage144
: Let's get out of here. Down the hall.
Arch mage144
: *heads out and to the left*
Arch mage144
: *while he's moving, Zeke's reloading his weapons*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Does just that*
Marshmallow DM
: *shield heafted and goes!*
Lithaladhwen: *goes*
Arch mage144
: Y'know, Nezetta, you might not understand this. But I think these corps are the reason's Valth's such a shit-hole.
Arch mage144
: I figure throwing a few bastards out of windows makes quite the statement, don't you?
Lithaladhwen
: *grim nod*
Arch mage144
: I heard about some Barian who pitched that asshole demon that tried to take over Doma out of a window.
Arch mage144
: You don't know him, do you?
T3chn0Namagomi
: -HEY! They're running that way! Catch them!-
Arch mage144: Eh, so much for conversation...run!
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Fuck shit ass cock motherfucker.
Lithaladhwen
: *runs*
Marshmallow DM
: *Tailing behind to cover*
CGNakibe has entered the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel: The one who threw a demon out the window?
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Yeah, she's running :-(*
Arch mage144
: Yeah, him!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Never heard about it!
Arch mage144
: Oh, well. I think it made a good political statement!
Arch mage144
: "We don't take shit from nobody!"
Lithaladhwen
: *smirks and keeps running*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *After running past a couple of opposing 60 degree turns...there's another sharp 120 degree turn*
Arch mage144: *TUUURN!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w*It's true, you know!
T3chn0Namagomi
: *They see a hallway with a door on the right*
Arch mage144: *hallway! door!*
Arch mage144
: *w* What, that Barians don't take shit?
Arch mage144
: *w* Seems to me like you prefer to give it!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* Well, obviously.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *So, they go into the door?*
Arch mage144: *any markings/labelling?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Something that looks like a picture of a man*
Arch mage144: *open!*
Arch mage144
: *not going to rush in until Zeke knows what's in there*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *It looks like...a bathroom*
Arch mage144: Speaking of shit.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...
Arch mage144
: Uh, keep going! *runs down the hall some more*
Lithaladhwen
: *runs*
Marshmallow DM
: *anyone in there?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Nobody visible, though there are stalls someone may be in*
TheWaiChibiAngel: ...
TheWaiChibiAngel
: .*How many stalls?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Looks like three...and you DO know it's probably the men's bathroom, right?*
Arch mage144: *OK, OK, we'll go in the bathroom*
Arch mage144
: *if that's what everyone wants to do >.>*
Marshmallow DM
: *how closed in are the stalls? could you see their feet if we looked?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Yes, you could see their feet*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Why are we here?
Lithaladhwen
: *checks briefly for feet*
Marshmallow DM
: *listens out for anything... even though she maynot like the sound*
T3chn0Namagomi: *There seems to be a flushing sound*
Marshmallow DM: ....*w* I think someone is in here.
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Nods*
Lithaladhwen
: e_e
Marshmallow DM
: *which stall did it comefrom*
Marshmallow DM: *?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Second stall.*
Marshmallow DM: *motions to it and waits*
Arch mage144: *into the bathroom, then, guns drawn*
Arch mage144
: *ready action--whoever opens the stall is getting their head blown off*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The stall opens...and a guy comes out...*
Arch mage144: *FIRE FIRE, assuming it's allowed*
Marshmallow DM
: *look to see if we need this guy, first*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And the poor guy gets killed*
Arch mage144: *looks at the body* Well, at least he didn't die full of shit.
Arch mage144
: Most Valthi do.
Marshmallow DM
: ....*looks at the guy we just killed*
Lithaladhwen: ...Riiight. Good for him.
Marshmallow DM
: You just did not..
Lithaladhwen: 6_6 Hm.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Yeah. He's dead*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* That was copmletely unnessessary, and now we can't hide here.
Marshmallow DM
: ...put him back in there.
Lithaladhwen: We couldn't have hidden here forever anyway. We have to get the fuck out.
Arch mage144
: *w* He would've screamed.
Arch mage144
: *props the corpse up on the john*
Lithaladhwen
: When they combed the building we would have been fucked.
Lithaladhwen
: Let's just go.
Marshmallow DM
: Yeah, if they smell something after a few days, they maynot guess it's a dead body.
Marshmallow DM: *heads out*
Lithaladhwen: *laughs*
Arch mage144
: *out as well!*
Lithaladhwen
: *out*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Zeke and Myrnal hear footsteps getting closer*
Lithaladhwen: *gestures in the direction of the footsteps*
Lithaladhwen
: *puts a blade to her lips in 'shh' fashion*
Arch mage144
: *quiet!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *So, going right again?*
Marshmallow DM: *indeed!*
T3chn0Namagomi: *There's a 60-degree turn to the right up ahead*
Arch mage144: *right!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Following!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Rounding the corner, one can see that they come to a junction--60 degree left turn and a 60 degree right turn...*
Arch mage144: *right*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And the group, after following that direction for a short bit...and going around another 60 degree left turn, they come to another junction. Corridors in front and right, and a door on the left*
Arch mage144: *door!*
Marshmallow DM
: *any signs?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Well, we went too fast to see the sign, but going into the door...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The room appears to be hexagonal in shape, like the stairway...but this time, there's a desk here...with a guy oddly enough fitting the description for the vice CEO...unfortunately for him, he was busy combing his hair back.*
T3chn0Namagomi: *He may not be a fatass...but still*
Arch mage144: ...!
Arch mage144
: *guns at the ready* -Freeze, jackass!-
Marshmallow DM
: IM: He STILL looks like an ass.
T3chn0Namagomi: Kii?!
TheWaiChibiAngel: IM: This just gets better and better...
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Just kill him.
Arch mage144
: *yeah, uh, the whole freeze thing is mostly to startle him*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Blow a hole in his face so I can take his skin and we can go.
Arch mage144
: *Zeke is totally using Focused Aim x2 and shooting at the guy's head and torso*
Marshmallow DM
: *anyone else in the room?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *No...nobody else in the room...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The first gunshot misses his head utterly and completely, embedding itself into the back wall*
T3chn0Namagomi: *However, the shot at his torso hits on-target--straight in something or other vital. Blood sprays, and he grasps the wound in surprise before slumping to the desk out of deadness*
T3chn0Namagomi: *...his brown hair still slicked back like an ass. XP*
Marshmallow DM: That.. went smoother than expected..
Arch mage144: Of course it did. I'm around. *cocky hairflip*
Lithaladhwen
: *grin of approval*
T3chn0Namagomi
: -There they are!-
Arch mage144: Fuck.
Marshmallow DM
: *stays by the door to listen for footsep--*
T3chn0Namagomi: *footsteps seem to pick up quickly*
TheWaiChibiAngel: Why can nothing go our way?
Marshmallow DM
: *Which direction!*
Marshmallow DM: Get something of his!
Arch mage144: Screw it, they'll know he's dead.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Looking out the door? Right*
Arch mage144: No time.
Arch mage144
: We're going left!
Marshmallow DM
: *stays for everyone to go first*
Arch mage144: *pitches the flash grenade down the hall to the right*
Lithaladhwen
: *follows Zeke, as per routine*
Marshmallow DM
: *shield up, yo*
TheWaiChibiAngel: Left. Right!
T3chn0Namagomi
: *as the group runs to the left, they encounter a 60 degree turn to...the left...and a bright flash erupts from behind*
Marshmallow DM: do we have any more of those?
Arch mage144: No, so I hope that one stalls them a bit!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: If they're dumb enought o get caught by it!
Arch mage144
: *okay, can we make it back to the room where we found the security wing door or whatever?*
Arch mage144
: *I assume our characters know how to get back, but I don't actually*
T3chn0Namagomi
: Yes, you can...
Arch mage144: *yay!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: (Oops)
T3chn0Namagomi: (Meant to put asterisks there)
Marshmallow DM: Right, so we find the last guy and get the fuck out?
Marshmallow DM: This place is irritating!
Arch mage144: *OK, assuming no guards catch up, that's where we're going, then*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: HATE.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *turning the bend, the corridor goes forward...with a right turn...and thankfully, Myrnal and Nezetta remember this is where the fuck they entered the wing from--if they went straight*
Lithaladhwen: *w*This is where we came in.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: We need to leave this wing, right?
Arch mage144
: *w* Yes, there's another wing for security. It's on the opposite side of the building.
Arch mage144
: *w* Back to the staircase and through the door that was on the left.
Marshmallow DM
: *Follows*
Lithaladhwen: *follows like a little sneaky Zeke-shadow*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Is Zeke actually GOING anywhere?*
Arch mage144
: *yeah, we're all going back to the place where there were the two doors and the stairs*
Arch mage144
: *one door that said security and the other executive branch*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And so they make a mad dash out of the executive branch and toward the security branch*
Arch mage144: *into the security branch!
Zero
has entered the room.
Arch mage144: *barring, you know, problems*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Zeke and Nezetta, on their way out, heard rapid footsteps. Somewhat more distant than before, but still rapid*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And still cause to hightail it*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Takes this chance to down that mana potion*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Entering the security branch, they're once again faced with a left-right junction. 60 degrees, as usual. And footsteps could be heard from the left...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Approaching.*
Arch mage144: *right, damnit!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *they go right, and come to a 60 degree left turn in the hallway*
Arch mage144: *follow that*
Marshmallow DM
: *yeah, doing like any other meatshield. She follows untill it's tank time*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The group comes to another junction--straight or right?*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* That way. *Points down the turn*
Arch mage144
: *right, sure*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *They head right, and come to another left turn. Myrnal hears some footsteps down the path, but can't tell which direction they're going...*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* If this is like the other wing, we want to be in the middle.
Marshmallow DM
: *do we spot any signs alone the way?*
Lithaladhwen: *w* I hear someone. Don't know where they are.
Arch mage144
: *w* Makes sense.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *No signs*
Arch mage144: *maze'd*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *So, continue forward down the turn?*
Marshmallow DM: *footstepps?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Zeke and Myrnal can definitely hear footsteps coming from that corner now. Leaving, but still there*
Marshmallow DM: *assumes foward?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Yep. They're coming from the corner up ahead*
Arch mage144: *go wherever the footsteps aren't*
KnightsofSquare
has left the room.
Marshmallow DM: *moves in the direction that doesn't have footsteps for great justice*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The group doubles back!*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Probably!*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *And they're now at a 60 degree left/ 60 degree right junction. Zeke can hear footsteps from the left end*
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
Arch mage144: *and on the right, receding, correct?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Now from behind, receding*
Arch mage144: (OK, that works)
Marshmallow DM
: *GOES*
Arch mage144: *which way?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *You've got your choices of left and right*
Arch mage144: *go right, I don't hear footsteps there*
Marshmallow DM
: *Is following since she's the back defense for now*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Going where footsteps aren't is a good plan.*
KnightsofSquare
has left the room.
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *And after that, and a 60 degree left turn...they come to a similar-looking junction. There's a forward corridor...and a turn to the right. Footsteps can be heard from behind.*
Marshmallow DM: *w* Augh. We need to hurry.
T3chn0Namagomi: *So...which way...forward or right?*
Arch mage144: *right*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The four head down another corridor...and after a while, they come to a four-way junction*
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
Arch mage144: *straight*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Footsteps could be heard from ahead*
Arch mage144: *screw that, right!*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Follow, follow.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *They head down a 60 degree turn to the right...and then a 60 degree turn to the left...coming to a straight wall. Myrnal and Zeke manage to pick up sounds of footsteps going away on the left, and approaching from the right...*
Arch mage144: *let's go left, but cautiously*
Marshmallow DM
: *same!*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* This is insane.
Arch mage144
: *w* Don't I know it.
Marshmallow DM
: *w* How close do you think we are?
T3chn0Namagomi: *They come to a left 60 degree turn. Same status on footsteps*
Arch mage144: *continue*
Marshmallow DM
: *advance advance till they see a sign or something they want to see*
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *there's a sign there...saying --Head of Security--*
Arch mage144: *YAY!*
Arch mage144
: *w* OK, let's do this.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Thank GOD*
Marshmallow DM
: *sigh of relief!*
Arch mage144: *guns at the ready*
Arch mage144
: *motions to someone else to open the door*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: When we get done I'm killing the architect, too.
Marshmallow DM
: *w* anyone else in there?
Lithaladhwen: IM: KILL.
Arch mage144
: *w* No way to know without opening the door.
Marshmallow DM
: *w* Can you HEAR anything?
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Puts her ear to the door*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *she can't hear anything from there...*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* Sounds empty.
Arch mage144
: *w* Open it anyway.
Marshmallow DM
: *Waits!*
KnightsofSquare has entered the room.
Arch mage144: *has a gun in both hands, someone else open the door*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Opens it, then moves the hell out of the way*
Marshmallow DM
: *peaks in with ehr sheild up after a second*
Marshmallow DM: *Looking to see if she can see anyone*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The room looks like...if nothing else, a total mess. Papers are everywhere, and it looks like there's a desk pushed over on its end...*
Marshmallow DM: I don't see anyone.. they maybe behind the desk.
Marshmallow DM: *advances slowly*
T3chn0Namagomi: *From behind a pair of bookcases come a couple of shielders, placing themselves each beside the desk, blocking it off. From behind the desk, up come a pair of riflers...*
Arch mage144: IM: Here we go again.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Sometimes I wonder if I wouldn't be happier blowing everything all to hell.
Lithaladhwen
: *quick glance to her knives*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Nah.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: IM: Goddamnit.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *...and a man who looks QUITE buff. He has a general clipped look to himself...and seems to be carrying a rather large gun himself...* -So...you're the intruders, I take it...-
Arch mage144: -Do you want to have a conversation about it? Maybe we can have coffee in the break room?-
Marshmallow DM
: *w* Ok, please tell me my eyes are still messed up from being blind... and that man isn't as imposing as I think?
Arch mage144: -Though I honestly think you would prefer a light snack.-
T3chn0Namagomi
: *He has a generally intimidating appearance, and gives a cold stare at the group* -As tempting as that would be, I'm not that stupid-
Arch mage144: -You're refusing my hospitality?-
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* He's not THAT imposing...
Marshmallow DM
: *w* His gun sure is.
Arch mage144: -Fine! You can eat lead, bitch!-
T3chn0Namagomi
: -I'm afraid I will have to decline- *points the large gun at the group...*
TheWaiChibiAngel: Oh, shits.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Makes to get the hell out of the way*
Arch mage144
: IM: More than one shit?
Arch mage144
: IM: Plural shit?
Marshmallow DM
: Please tell me you can blizzard again.
Marshmallow DM: *backing up slowly*
TheWaiChibiAngel: It'll hurt, but I can sure as hell try!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: Zeke, ask him where the hell he was when we killed the guys who sign his paycheck!
Arch mage144
: -Where the hell were you when we killed the guys who sign your paycheck?-
Lithaladhwen
: IM: I'm going to be so pissed if I die here where no one can revive me.
Arch mage144
: -And why the hell did you requisition so many fucking flash grenades!?-
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Simply glaring, the man fires his weapon, and a spray of shrapnel flies out at the group*
Arch mage144: -I'd like to shove one up your ass so you can get a little light in there!-
Lithaladhwen
: IM: So pissed. I refuse to pass on.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: I'll haunt him forever and whisper at his bedside.
Marshmallow DM
: BEHIND ME
Lithaladhwen: IM: ..shit.
Lithaladhwen
: *doesn't like shrapnel*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *the spray from that gun proves to be hard as hell to dodge, and not even Nezetta's quickness can save her from getting touched at least a bit by it...*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The shrapnel itself, at this distance, isn't that bad, however. Zeke and Myrnal receive some of it, and some of it slices right through Deeum's armor, hitting her. Nezetta and her coat take the brunt of the blast, however...*
KnightsofSquare has left the room.
Marshmallow DM: *Grunt*
Arch mage144: *ow*
Arch mage144
: >.o
Arch mage144
: -Your witty retort is positively cutting!-
T3chn0Namagomi
: *One of the riflemen then targets Zeke, and fires with his rifle*
Lithaladhwen: *Myrnal, not feeling like walking into the shrapnel and all that bullshit just yet, decides to bide her time until at least one of her opponents has been hit in some way.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The bullet impacts his armor, and goes right into him..staying there, even*
Arch mage144: OW! -FUCK!-
TheWaiChibiAngel
: You guys.
Marshmallow DM
: This isn't going to end well.
TheWaiChibiAngel: Get the lesser two.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: The big one is mine.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The other rifler fires a shot at Nezetta. And her jacket*
T3chn0Namagomi: *The jacket takes most of the impact away, but that's still not too fun of a chest shot there. The bullet also seems to stay.*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Meanwhile, the shielder seems to be giving his efforts toward covering the rifler on his side*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Peeks in*...Okay...
Marshmallow DM
: *assuming her shield is still useable, holds it up and gives Nez some space*
TheWaiChibiAngel: I don't have enough in me to blast them all...
TheWaiChibiAngel
: ...But I can get the leader good, I think...
TheWaiChibiAngel
: We need a plan.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* Zeke, give me cover fire against one of the gunners.
Arch mage144
: *w* Right!
Arch mage144
: *w* I'll do you one better!
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* Myrnal, throw your knife at the other.
Lithaladhwen
: ...Sure.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *w* Deeum, I need to borrow your shield. And your back, for that matter.
Lithaladhwen
: Not as good at that, but if you want me to I can.
Marshmallow DM
: My back?
Marshmallow DM: *hands it over*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *w* You two, keep them from shooting at us. Deeum, lead me in, and I'm going to vault over your back and over the desk, and channel an ice spell right into his head.
Marshmallow DM
: Ok
Marshmallow DM: *LEADS!*
Lithaladhwen: I can go in and backstab, too. Whatever.
Lithaladhwen
: Your plan.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Follows close, already preparing her magic* Then do that!
Lithaladhwen
: *readies both knives* IM: Fucking plan.
Marshmallow DM
: *goes when ready*
Lithaladhwen: *action still delayed until one of her allies hits someone*
Arch mage144
: *when it's his turn, will do the thing with the shooting*
Arch mage144
: *specifically, Bang, Bang, You're Dead! targeting both riflemen, one shielder, and general tankass*
Marshmallow DM
: *Tanking is what Deeum's do best!*
Zero has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *the second shielder also takes a defensive position, giving some cover to the other rifler*
Arch mage144: *leans around the corner of the doorway, firing off shots and sweeping across the room, hoping to score precision hits on several foes*
Marshmallow DM
: *moving in as commanded!*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Move! Move!*
Marshmallow DM
: *Will kneel down when ready*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *When they're close enough, Nezetta's gonna take a jump off Deeum's shoulders, over the desk, and try to vicegrip the Boss's head. And then she's going to happily channel her Freeze spell THROUGH it.*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Making for a rather painful icecream headache. Probably a fatal one at that.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The shots fly out at a crazyass spread, toward the four. However, two aimed at the gunners ricochet off the shields, a shielder dodges the next one, and the captain ducks behind the desk, the shot sailing over his head*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Nezetta's vicegrip-freeze attempt as successful, as the captain falls over. Dead. And drops his shotgun in the process
T3chn0Namagomi: *
TheWaiChibiAngel: Fuck. You!
Arch mage144
: IM: Cover fire certainly helped, if nothing else!
Female Pretense
has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *And Myrnal strikes the hapless rifleman down...quite easily, and very, VERY messily...how much blood just flew the hell out there, anyway?!*
Lithaladhwen: *When Myrnal thinks about her happy place, sometimes it looks a lot like that.*
Lithaladhwen
: *Her happy place is full of blood. Because other people's blood=success.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *LOTS of blood*
Female Pretense has entered the room.
Marshmallow DM: *Takes another chance at breaking things with a full on rush attack towards the shielder and the riflemen. Also Thrusts her sword into the shielder's defense to peirce through the shield and into him*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And the rush practically sends the shielder in question flying back, landing prone. Unfortunately, he manages to just barely dodge the following sword attack, even while prone*
Lithaladhwen: *Because she's a bitch, Myrnal wants to take out the easy target lying prone on the ground. Just the same, these guys are wearing too much armor to get careless. Stabbing, though. That is good. Helpful, even.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *There is definitely much in the way of stabbing, as blood sprays from the newly opened orifices on the prone shielder. LOTS of blood, there.
T3chn0Namagomi: *He falls to the side, clearly dead, in a pool of his, and another's own blood*
Lithaladhwen: *For the moment... covered in blood... is once again in her happy place.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *and a rifler just happened to be an ass, and shoot at Myrnal. Again, or something*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And the shot goes right into her armor, and into her, feeling rather painful and all.*
Lithaladhwen: *grits her teeth*
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Fuck....
Lithaladhwen
: *harsh grin* IM: Worth it.
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Is either one paticularly enthralled on someone that's not her?*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Well, the rifler bothered to shoot Myrnal*
T3chn0Namagomi: *So I guess that's concentrating on someone "not her"*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Well then.*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *She's going to kick that son of the a bitch in the groin.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Sadly...that son of a bitch don't want his groin kicked, and deflects the kick with his gun*
T3chn0Namagomi: *Meanwhile, the shielder...drops his shield and pistol, and rolls toward the shotgun, picking it up, cocking it, and aiming it at Nezetta, firing the thing*
T3chn0Namagomi: *And boy, let me tell you. Point-blank shotgun blasts are nothing short of utter pain. Especially when you have trouble dodging the damn thing to begin with.*
T3chn0Namagomi: *This holds true for Nezetta indeed, as the shotgun blast rips through her coat, and leaves nothing short of a bloody mess...needless to say, she isn't in good shape...hell. Not even conscious.*
CGNakibe has left the room.
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Ouch.*
Arch mage144
: IM: That's no good.
Marshmallow DM
: *Drops her shielding and skids towards Nez. knowing full well that if she isn't helped THEN, she would be dead. Deeum places her hands down onto Nezetta's chest and tries to give it all she can*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Much less stressful, travelling with someone who can heal. I always forget.
Marshmallow DM
: Ugh. Hang on.
T3chn0Namagomi: *Those wounds heal a good bit, but they're still going to need some attention afterwards...but Deeum seemed to have pushed herself over the limit, and something hurts...*
Arch mage144: *takes aim at the gunner and fires off his two shots!*
Marshmallow DM
: *endures it and keeps an eye on Nez*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Is.... is she okay?
T3chn0Namagomi
: *The two shots tear into the ex-shielder, practically making things VERY nasty...as he falls over, dead, with two holes in his chest*
Lithaladhwen: *Nothing left to do but stab the last enemy standing.*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *and Myrnal commences with stabbing...and oh dear god, I am glad there aren't any children around. That is a metric FUCKTON of blood spraying out as the man...dies...*
Lithaladhwen: IM: Well that's been nice.
Lithaladhwen
: IM: Now how do we get out.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *Something feels...odd...shouldn't the killsquad have gotten here by now?*
Arch mage144: *...good question*
Marshmallow DM
: I I don't know, but we have to go.
Arch mage144: *walks over to the gunner he killed and picks up the shotgun*
Lithaladhwen
: Yup. We should get the fuck out of here.
Arch mage144
: My cousin uses one of these sometimes, if I remember correctly.
Lithaladhwen
: *smiles contentedly* I made a mess.
Arch mage144
: *slings it over his back*
Arch mage144
: *takes whatever ammo's available, too*
Marshmallow DM
: *any windows?*
T3chn0Namagomi: *No windows...*
TheWaiChibiAngel: *Still knocked out :-(*
Marshmallow DM
: *damn*
Marshmallow DM: We can still make it out. I just need a place to LEACE the buiilding from.
T3chn0Namagomi: *There seems to be a REALLY bad feeling around here...*
Marshmallow DM: LEAVE*
Arch mage144: ...look, something's wrong, I can feel it.
Marshmallow DM
: all the more reason to go. *picks up NEz*
Arch mage144: *holsters his pistols*
Arch mage144
: Yeah.
Arch mage144
: We've gotta get out of here.
Lithaladhwen
: *idly wipes her knives on her coat* Way we came in, or something more creative?
Arch mage144
: The way we came in is probably swarming with guards.
T3chn0Namagomi
: *...and suddenly, Myrnal, Zeke, and Deeum suddenly experience a tingling sensation for a few seconds...*
Arch mage144: Where the hell are they all now, though?
Arch mage144
: ...
Lithaladhwen
: ....
Marshmallow DM
: ..... To an open area, now!
Lithaladhwen: Oh I don't like that.
Marshmallow DM
: We'll worry about it later
T3chn0Namagomi: *followed by the feeling of intense, raw pain shooting through every part of their bodies...*
Arch mage144: OW!!!!
Marshmallow DM
: *Scream~*
Arch mage144: KII VA ZESH!?
Lithaladhwen
: *noiseless agony...too much pain for swearing*
TheWaiChibiAngel
: *Is still out. :-(*
Arch mage144
: IM: *can't think in words*
T3chn0Namagomi
: *...Myrnal passes out first from the pain...then Zeke...and finally Deeum...*
Lithaladhwen: *...*
Marshmallow DM
: *Thuds down with Nez on top of her*
NebbieQ has left the room.
T3chn0Namagomi: *and everything fades to black* IM: ...Strange. I'd have thought they'd take slightly longer than the guards...
T3chn0Namagomi: <End of episode 1!>
