[19:58] <13@DeathStar> -0-
[19:58] <13@DeathStar> Stardate: Resumation
04[19:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* On the roof of the building, with no air, and surrounded by a black void, with a goo Tsivrixsh reaching down to smash X, the team comprised of Kane, Chii, Lilith, Jennifer, X, Raquel, and Lemon are facing quick annihiliation
15[19:59] * 13@Jennifer quickly grabs X and pulls herself and X away from the path of the monster.
[19:59] <13@Kit> 6Lilith braces, turning her lance vertical and crouching if X doesn't move.
15[20:00] * 13@Kane eyes search around quickly and he pulls up his rifle to fire towards the Tsiv.
[20:00] <13@Kit> 6Chii waves a hand angrily at Lemon, trying to get her to continue directing toward the objective.
04[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* As X is tumbled away by Jennifer before she can open a ripple, the monster's hand presses against the roof, some goo splattering out, landing on Raquel's left arm. It begins to spread.
[20:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods once, moving along the rooftop quickly.
[20:00] <13@Kit> 6Chii punches the roof, trying to get the others' attention, then follows Lemon
15[20:01] * 13@Jennifer quickly makes a hand motion to X as they land away from the monster, trying to indicate rippling them all back inside. She looks at Chii and helps X move after her.
04[20:01] <13@Kit> 6Lilith winces, checking on X and Jennifer, then peers toward Raquel, hesitating.
[20:01] <13@Kane> 6* Kane eye's widen quickly and he moves over to Raquel, grabbing her and pulling her back, pulling out an energy knife.
[20:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks up as Raquel's arm is quickly being engulfed. Within seconds, she'll be completely gooed
[20:01] <13@Kane> 6* Kane slices out to remove the arm.
15[20:01] * 13@Jennifer blinks and notices where X is looking, staring in surprise.
[20:01] <13@Kit> 6Lilith shoves Kane slightly and just slams her spear down over the arm. Much quicker and less painful.
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The Tsivrixsh shifts around, putting a hand down in front of Lemon to block her.
15[20:02] * 13@Kane stumbles back, hand going to his chest, he needs air badly.
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The pain would knock Raquel out, either way. Her arm turns into a Tsivrixsh goo hand, and reaches out for Lilith's arm
[20:02] <13@Kit> 6Chii grinds her teeth slightly-- holding her breath she can't complete elemental skills. Lilith leaps back, grabbing Raquel in the process.
[20:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens a ripple so the arm leaps into it.
15[20:03] * 13@Jennifer motions again frantically, starting to get loopy herself as the breath left in her runs low.
04[20:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* X just passes Jennifer with no mind
15[20:03] * 13@Kane glances around desperately, hand going to his head, he pulls out charges.
[20:04] <13@Kit> 6Lilith drags Raquel toward Chii and Lemon, Chii reaching back and pulling out her wire, concentrating energy along and whips it out, going for clean, splashless, slice to the hand/arm.
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon backtracks now as the hand comes sweeping toward her
[20:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Chii's wire does little to stop the giant hand
[20:05] <13@Kit> 6Chii makes a face, then turns, gesturing to Lilith and to the ceiling, her face reddening in effort. Lilith tilts her head, then hands Raquel toward X and rears her arm back, peering down at the 'floor.'
15[20:05] * 13@Kane pulls up his rifle to fire towards the hand, since he doesn't see a way inside.
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* X takes Raquel
15[20:06] * 13@Jennifer backs away as well, keeping her distance as she eyes Chii for direction.
[20:06] <13@Kit> 6Lilith focuses energy into her hand and slams it whole-heartedly into the 'ground.'
[20:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* The roof barely dents.
15[20:06] * 13@Kane waves his arm a bit and throws the charges towards LIlith.
[20:07] <13@Kit> 6Lilith shakes her head to Chii who twitches somewhat, then catches the charges, eyeing the two.
[20:07] <13@Kit> 6Chii shrugs helplessly.
15[20:07] * 13@Kane points to the dent.
[20:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon avoids the giant Tsivrixsh in the background
[20:08] <13@Kit> 6Lilith pauses, then sets it in the dent and moves back slightly, then holds her hands to the roof, forming a barrier over it-- shape-charge style.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X begins to look like she's getting dizzy
[20:08] <13@Kit> 6Chii returns to focusing on the big thing, firing both guns into it and running, just to be a target.
15[20:08] * 13@Kane detonates them, stumbling a bit to his knee.
[20:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* The focused explosion creates a hole.
[20:08] <13@Kit> 6Lilith drops the barrier, then gestures to X to drop in before the air escapes completely.
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods once and leaps into the hole with Raquel, using her as a shield
15[20:09] * 13@Kane shakes his head, his eyes going unfocused as he starts to limp towards the hole, hoping he can get a catch of the air seeping out.
15[20:09] * 13@Jennifer drops in after X.
[20:09] <13@Kit> 6Lilith reaches over and grabs Kane, throwing him inside since he looks weak.
[20:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The giant Tsivrixsh throws a goo ball at Chii
[20:09] <13@Kit> 6Chii leaps backward and rolls, eyeing for Lemon so they can regroup.
15[20:09] * 13@Kane is thrown inside, poor nerd.
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* The group falls 5 feet into a small vent area, and begin to pile up
[20:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* With Raquel on the bottom
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* X shifts Raquel along like a cleaning cloth down the vent horizontally, to make room
[20:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii makes sure Lemon's close, then moves to join Lilith and enter the vent.
[20:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The air in the vent begins to thin out
15[20:11] * 13@Kane shakes his head slightly and begins to crawl through the vent.
15[20:11] * 13@Jennifer shifts herself as well, head not so cloudy with a fresh bit of oxygen in her system, she looks around for any sort of access or way into the base from this vent.
[20:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii twists in the vent once everyone's inside and she manages to get enough air, finishing a seal set. 1"Doton..!" 6She gasps, then puts her hand to the duct ceiling, closing the hole with rock.
15[20:12] * 13@Jennifer looks at Kane and crawls after him.
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* The goo monster pounds on the rock
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes Raquel's missing arm now. "She is damaged."
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* The air lose stops.
[20:12] <13@DeathStar> *loss
09[20:13] <13@Jennifer> "We'll have to get her medical attention... I've got some supplies..."
15[20:13] * 13@Kane takes in deep breaths, almost collapsing. 1It's better than being deceased.
[20:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> Damaged goods are still... u-useful... Urgh, too thin." 6She forms another seal set. 1"Futon!" 6Casting a breeze through the vents, then collapses, panting.
[20:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X peers at her side, which is sore, but healed thanks to Lilith
[20:13] <13@Kit> 6Lilith sits behind X, looking worse for wear, but emotionless as usual, refusing to show pain or inconvenience.
[20:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon sits there, looking dizzy
[20:14] <13@Kane> We...we need to continue. 6He notes, through breathes.
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks energy depleted
09[20:15] <13@Jennifer> "Yeah... longer we take the longer our friends are fighting alternate Dias..."
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[20:15] <13@DeathStar> Location: Stair Case
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias leaps back up and lands before John, Cheryl, and Dias
[20:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pants, an arm hanging limply. "I think we're losing."
15[20:17] * 13Dias` pants as he wipes blood from his face. 1"Think so? I think he's starting to get tired."
[20:17] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl snorts. Alternate Dias cracks his neck from side to side.
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> <John> I think we need to do a triple tech on him.
[20:18] <13Dias`> What's that? 6He looks over at John.
[20:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* John looks at Dias. "Where we all combine our powers to---" 6* A fist slams into John's face and he goes flying into the wall.
15[20:19] * 13Dias` eye's go wide as the fist slams into John and he shifts his feet, throwing a low kick for Alt Dias
[20:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl whips out at ADias as well. He merely grabs the whip, steps out of Dias' path, then swings Cheryl back around at him
[20:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pushes himself from the wall, making a face. "That's it! Double Tech! You can do it. No, not that way, he's using you as his double tech.'
15[20:20] * 13Dias` leaps back from Cheryl as he grabs her and plants his feet, sliding along.
[20:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias then dashes forward as Dias grabs Cheryl, and punches into her gut when she can't move. Cheryl lets out a noise and hunches forward in agony
15[20:22] * 13Dias` plants his back foot and he swings his leg out from around Cheryl, swinging up at ADias's arm
[20:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rushes forward now as well. Alternate Dias just pulls back out of range.
[20:22] <13Dias`> Cheryl? 6He shifts himself infront of her now, placing her arm over his shoulder to keep her up.
[20:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl removes her arm and steps back and to the side, holding her stomach, taking painful breaths. "Don't handicap yourself.." 6* She hisses
[20:23] <13Dias`> A strong heart isn't a handicap. 6He takes several steps to the side of her, his eyes focusing on ADias again
[20:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* John steps up beside Dias, getting ready. Alternate Dias stands there.
15[20:25] * 13Dias` starts to control his breathing again, his feet shifting apart. 1"Time for that, than huh?"
[20:25] <13@DeathStar> <John> ... 6* He keeps a grim look at the other Dias, who suddenly comes rushing in at them.
[20:25] <13Dias`> 6Dias kicks off, dashing right in at Dias himself, staying low.
[20:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dashes in after Dias
[20:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other Dias pushes up off the ground, and rises up into the air over Dias, twisting his body around and sending a kick out for John's head; John's head snaps back and he falls backwards, landing flat on his back.
[20:28] <13Dias`> 6Dias head follows ADias as his feet shift to adjust his direction, causing him to slide a moment. He slams his foot down hard and kicks off at ADias and leaps at him. 1"SPINNING KICK!" 6He shifts his upperbody than snaps around with a powerful kick for him
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other Dias lands, then reaches up and grabs Dias' leg with one hand, then brings in his other hand for a quick blow to Dias' ballsack, then leaps back past Cheryl; Cheryl rushes after him, swinging her fist out at his body, keeping him dancing back
[20:29] <13Dias`> 6Dias hits the ground, howling out in pain from the lowblow.
[20:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* John strains to sit up, holding his bleeding nose. "Ow."
[20:30] <13Dias`> <Dias> I call...foul..6He coughs as he strains to push himself up
[20:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl holds out a hand. "Duton." 6* She swings and punches the other Dias with a rock encased fist, sending him bouncing back. However, he recovers, punches his fist through the metal wall, and rips out a piece to hurl at Cheryl's chest.
[20:31] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes go wide and he growls, his fist flying out towards the incoming metal piece, a dark beam flying out from his hand for it
[20:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers at the metal piece getting deflected. She dashes in again at the other Dias, swinging her rock fists at him, keeping him dancing around. She leads him back toward Dias and John.
[20:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* John hops to his feet, peering at the two fighting
15[20:33] * 13Dias` begins to breath heavily as he shifts his feet around. He clenches both his fists then dashes in at ADias from behind
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John dashes in after him. The alternate Dias watches them all coming in, then holds up a glowing fist and slams into the floor, causing the staircase to begin shaking, and break apart. He leaps back into a hallway.
15[20:34] * 13Dias` stumbles several times until he regaining his footing.
[20:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* John comes to a stop, eyeing the floor actually breaking apart, despite it's durable design. "Oh shi---"
[20:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl leaps at the alternate Dias as the staircase collapses, landing in the hallway with him. John fals.
[20:36] <13Dias`> JOHN! 6He kicks off a braeking piece and leaps up towards the hallway edge
[20:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* John falls out of sight. Alternate Dias comes in for Cheryl as she lands, grabbing her by the throat and slamming her into the wall. He holds her there, but doesn't move to injure her more, apparantly trying to squeeze her unconscious. He eyes Dias, then punches into the wall again, hurling a piece of it at his head as he leaps upward
[20:37] <13Dias`> 6Dias eyes it coming in and he swings his fist into it, aiming to shatter it
[20:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* The metal piece shatters against his fist; there's a slight woozy feeling in his head, but no blood loss.
[20:38] <13Dias`> 6Dias lands in the hallway, sliding towards ADias, his eyes losing focus as the woozy feeling hits
[20:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias tosses Cheryl at Dias
[20:39] <13Dias`> 6Dias shifts his body to let her go by and he snatches onto her arm to stop her, leaving his side exposed
[20:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias blurs toward Dias rapidly, and slams his knee into Dias' side with enough force to send him flying toward the destroyed staircase
15[20:41] * 13Dias` howls out in pain from the force and he goes' flying towards the open stairwell now.
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> Location: Vents
04[20:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* X has given the armless and unconscious Raquel to Jennifer to hold, and is currently exmaining slots
[20:41] <13@Kit> <Chii> Are we any closer, Lemon?
[20:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Chii. "It is 5 floors below us now."
[20:42] <13@Kit> <Chii> Well, it was a rough shortcut. We'll have to thank them properly.
[20:42] <13@Kit> 6Chii cracks her neck. 1"Anyone have ideas on how to drop five floors quickly?"
15[20:42] * 13@Kane shakes his head. 1I don't.
[20:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* X kicks out the vent grating and lands on the floor below, peering about
15[20:42] * 13@Jennifer supports her as best she can. She decides to give Raquel a pain reliever while she waits, to prevent the poor girl from screaming in pain if she decides to wake up.
[20:42] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I believe only the doors and this vent are unstable enough for me to break.
[20:43] <13@Kit> 6Lilith drops out beside X, bringing her spear back out.
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon swings down as well, landing in a crouch, then rising.
15[20:43] * 13@Kane pulls himself forward to drop down, landing to a knee, peering around quickly, pistol out.
15[20:43] * 13@Jennifer moves for the opening next, she manuvers Raquel out of it for someone to catch. "Here."
[20:43] <13@Kit> 6Chii lands, sitting on Lemon's shoulders.
[20:43] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> There is a staircase, but it would take us out of the way.
[20:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* X motions for Lilith to catch Raquel, not wanting weight on her side
[20:44] <13@Kane> I could attempt to use up all of my charges. Though I would have no fire power left over for any other fights.
04[20:44] <13@Kit> 6Lilith holds a hand up menacingly toward Jennifer.
[20:44] <13@Kane> Also, i'm uncertain if the floor would hold.
15[20:44] * 13@Jennifer drops Raquel to Lilith and drops down herself.
[20:44] <13@Kit> <Chii> Unfortunately we're not looking for a fight. If your charges can break the floors straight through, go for it.
[20:44] <13@Kit> 6Lilith catches Raquel with one hand by her clothing, then sets her down against the wall for the moment.
[20:45] <13@DeathStar> <X> The first charge worked because of Lilith's barrier.
[20:45] <13@Kane> Yes, that is true.
[20:45] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I will continue to do so, if it is necessary.
[20:45] <13@Kit> <Chii> I could use earth ninpo.
15[20:46] * 13@Jennifer adjusts her shoulder a bit and looks down the hallway. "Whatever works."
[20:46] <13@Kane> If you would like to assist, I will place them now. Though I don't believe i'll have enough for all 5 floors.
[20:46] <13@Kit> <Chii> Every bit counts.
15[20:47] * 13@Kane nods and moves off a bit, and places two charges on the ground.
[20:47] <13@Kit> 6Lilith moves over, a bit sluggish, then puts her hands tot he floor, raising a barrier around them.
15[20:47] * 13@Jennifer backs away and looks around still, taking her gun back out.
15[20:47] * 13@Kane detonates them after the barrier raises.
[20:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* X keeps an eye on Lilith, letting her get more energy for now.
[20:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* The floor is severely damaged, but isn't completely blown through, though there are parts that went completely through. A guard below peers up the tiny holes that did form
[20:48] <13@Kit> 6Lilith stares at him, then jabs her spear through toward his peering eyes.
[20:49] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Enemy contact.
15[20:49] * 13@Kane frowns. 1Now i'm not certain I can make it to within 1 floor.
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* The guard is stabbed in the eyes, his body spasming as blood splashes upward, and sickening crunch follows
[20:49] <13@Kane> NRP: can't*
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> <X> I can see through now and can ripple.
09[20:49] <13@Jennifer> "Well, that's one way to put it, contact."
[20:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens a ripple and leaps through it.
15[20:49] * 13@Jennifer heads through after X.
15[20:49] * 13@Kane nods slightly and moves through.
[20:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* X steps beside the spasming body. "I can guess based on the height now for the rest, if you want to risk it."
[20:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon steps through after picking Raquel up by her remaining arm and carrying her
09[20:50] <13@Jennifer> "Maybe Lemon can tell us if there's a hall underneath us."
[20:50] <13@Kane> That would take up much of your energy. Maybe we should continue until i'm out of charges.
[20:51] <13@Kit> 6Lilith puts her spear away after flicking the blood off across the wall, then drops down beside X. Chii drops off Lemon's shoulders and appears after a moment.
[20:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> I agree with goggles.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* X shrugs.
09[20:52] <13@Jennifer> "Goggles?" *looks at Kane*
[20:52] <13@Kane> I have glasses. Not goggles. 6He moves over to a spot and places down two charges, stepping back.
[20:52] <13@Kane> NRP: er Three.
[20:52] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> There is 3 more hallways below us. The 5th floor will be larger.
09[20:52] <13@Jennifer> "Well... let's keep going till we're out of options then before we gamble."
[20:52] <13@Kit> 6Chii forms seals and then places her hand down, forming a dome of rock over the charges. 1"Doton."
09[20:53] <13@Jennifer> "Are they all the same height Lemon?"
[20:53] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Yes.
[20:53] <13@Kane> Hmm. I imagine the explosion will knock some of the rock back, unless it is strong enough to contain it. Either way we should take cover.
[20:53] <13@Kit> <Chii> He reminds me of this guy from a video game I played. Scientist, but ran around blasting people like some action hero. Same name as our general guy had.
09[20:53] <13@Jennifer> "Why don't we just make one ripple the total distance?"
15[20:53] * 13@Jennifer looks for some cover, choosing Kane for the moment.
15[20:53] * 13@Kane shfits to get back from it at least and then detonates the charges.
[20:54] <13@Kane> NRP: shfits is win for shifts.
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon blinks as Kane does so, sending rock toward Raquel, who she hadn't had time to move away. She quickly brushes the girl off so no one yells at her
[20:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* This time they made a complete hole.
15[20:55] * 13@Kane frowns. 1I apologize.
[20:55] <13@Kit> 6Chii walks over as Lilith does, both leaping down and sweeping for enemies.
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* They both land between two robot sentries
[20:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* X swings down and lands as well, then rises and fires a holy arrow for one sentry.
[20:55] <13@Kit> 6Lilith moves immediately to slam her fist into the one she faces. Chii makes a sound and dashes to the right, pulling out both blades.
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* The robot sentry's head is damaged, and sparks. It fires a red beam at Lilith's chest
15[20:56] * 13@Jennifer moves around Kane and looks down the hole to see what Chii and Lilith discover. She waits for the moment since the three seem to have things in order.
15[20:56] * 13@Kane moves over towards and peers down, then leaps down to fire shots towards the sentry with his pistol, rifle slung over his shoulder for now.
[20:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other fires at X's back
15[20:56] * 13@Kane shifts and attempts to pull X to the side.
15[20:56] * 13@Jennifer takes aim and takes a shot at X's attacker through the hole.
[20:56] <13@Kit> 6Chii jerks her movement inward at the bot, slicing her one blade upward as it fires at X, spinning to slash toward the 'neck' with her other. Lilith swerves, trying to dodge, but it's good she has her armor up, being too close for instant-movement.
04[20:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Kane's shots hit the sentry's armor, but do minimal damage. Kane pulls X, but it still hits her arm. Jennifer and Chii destroy the sentry's head.
[20:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lilith's armor is hit, but her tactical suit holds, damaged.
[20:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* The headless sentry switches weapons and grabs a buzz saw, then swings out at Chii
[20:58] <13@Kit> 6Lilith finishes her dodging movement, swinging the back of her outside foot in to stomp at its 'chest', then completes the turn, slamming her fist back in for it.
[20:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lilith knocks her sentry backwards. It drops grenade that pings toward her
[20:58] <13@Kit> 6Chii leans back quickly, then follows through with a backflip, leaping upward in a cross-slash manner.
15[20:58] * 13@Jennifer shifts around the hole, trying to get another shot.
15[20:58] * 13@Kane peers at X to make sure she's going to be ok.
[20:59] <13@Kit> 6Lilith eyes the grenade and kicks it back toward the underside of the sentry, having seen enough of these and the tactic employed to understand.
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes her damaged arm, then peers at the sentries. She opens a ripple behind the one Lilith is fighting so it backs up into it, but made it small enough it doesn't fit in. This carves a hole in it's back. The sentry jerks forward and spins around to find the source of damage, it's exposed back open to the grenade. It lands inside and blows up
03[20:59] * Jackieness (Psy@h231.22.40.69.dynamic.ip.windstream.net) has joined #taw
03[20:59] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Jackieness
[20:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Chii's attack slices the armor of the sentry, but does only moderate damage. It drops a grenade and rolls back
[20:59] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Thank you, mistress.
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> <X> It is only sensible to time our attacks together to cause maximum damage.
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes her arm. The tactical suit is already self-repairing, amazingly.
[21:00] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks down at the grenade and yelps, aiming to stab the bot with her blades on her descent so she's carried with it instead of landing on a grenade.
[21:00] <13@DeathStar> 6* The grenade explodes, the force knocking Kane and X forward.
15[21:00] * 13@Kane urks, flying back, er forward.
[21:00] <13@Kit> 6Lilith turns, holding out her arms to catch both.
[21:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* The sentry spins around and around, trying to dislodge Chii.
04[21:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* On Jennifer's floor, two more sentries emerge, numbers 3 and 4 on them.
[21:01] <13@Kit> 6Chii makes noises as she's flailed about, then plants her feet and braces, taking a breath before rapidly yanking the blades out and stabbing repeatedly. 1"Die, die, die, die, shinde, shinde!"
09[21:01] <13@Jennifer> "Lemon, we gotta go down, now."
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon turns as it fires beams at her and Raquel.
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* The sentry Chii is fighting finally stops moving
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* X painfully nods to Lilith her thanks
[21:02] <13@Kit> 6Chii lies on top of it, panting heartily. 1"...Mou...."
15[21:02] * 13@Kane coughs, and nods once, shifting to kneel down and try to recover somewhat.
15[21:02] * 13@Jennifer fires a shot at the head of Lemon's attacker.
[21:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Chii's sentry then begins to self-destruct
[21:02] <13@Kit> <Lilith> No time. Next floor, please."
09[21:03] <13@Jennifer> "Lemon MOVE!"
[21:03] <13@Kit> <Chii> You got to be shitting me...!" 6She sighs and strains, leaping away from it.
[21:03] <13@Kane> 6* Reaches out to place 3 more charges and limps away from them.
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon moves as ordered, and Raquel is shot, sending the girl falling down the hole, her side damaged.
09[21:03] <13@Jennifer> "Oh jeez. Head down Lemon."
04[21:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer's shots only ding it slightly, and the sentry continues to fire at her and Lemon, since Raquel is safe now
[21:03] <13@Kit> 6Lilith holds her hands over the charges, forming a smaller, but sturdier barrier.
15[21:03] * 13@Kane pauses and stumbles back when he eyes the self imploding sentry.
[21:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods, leaping down. As she does, the other sentry fires a net over the hole, blocking it.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Chii is knocked, though barely harmed, into Kane.
[21:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves to check on Raquel. "We need to wake her before she becomes a burden."
15[21:04] * 13@Kane lets out a grunt and a wince of pain.
15[21:04] * 13@Jennifer twists her hand and uses her fake hand's lasers to cut with a short beam at the net.
[21:04] <13@Kit> 6Chii blinks after a moment, opening her eyes-- having her blades crossed like her arms, right on either side of Kane's neck. 1"...Oops. Sorry. Fufufu." 6She turns them off.
[21:05] <13@Kane> ....
04[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* The net flares with energy, and doesn't get cut. The sentries begin to open fire at Jennifer from either side, though positioned to avoid each other.
[21:05] <13@DeathStar> 6* X shakes Raquel harshly, smacks her cheek, then gropes her roughly, trying to wake the girl.
15[21:05] * 13@Jennifer leaps to one side and ducks a bit to avoid them, calling out. "NEED SOME HELP UP HERE!"
04[21:05] <13@Kane> Assist Jennifer. 6He notes, nodding upward to the net. 1Lilith surround the charges with a barrier. 6He says as he pulls himself up to limp away again.
04[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer, PREPARE YOURSELF
[21:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* LEft, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down

04[21:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer somehow taps into her inner Carmichael and avoids all the attack beams.
15[21:08] * 13@Kane glances to the barrier and then dets the charges, throwing up a silver disc set to electify, trying to short out the net.
04[21:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* The two robots begin to fire grenades at Jennifer now.
[21:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* They form another hole in the floor.
[21:08] <13@Kit> 6Chii follows Kane's example and finishes seals, holding her hand up toward the net. 1"Raiton!"
15[21:09] * 13@Jennifer tosses one grenade back and moves after it, trying to avoid getting caught by two blasts.
[21:09] <13@Kit> 6Chii unleashes current from either side of her into a blueish arc to the net.
[21:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The net is shorted out. The grenades go off.
04[21:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* The sentry closest to JEnnifer rushes in, buzz saws swiping in at her.
15[21:10] * 13@Kane pulls up a knife and activates it, throwing it out to try and arch it enough to cute a resonable gap in the hole.
15[21:10] * 13@Jennifer gets belting back towards the hole, her tact suit getting damaged and her hair singed a bit, she rolls and drops through.
[21:10] <13@Kane> Continue down. 6He tells Lilith and X.
[21:10] <13@Kit> 6Lilith looks to X and nods, dropping down.
[21:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* X pushes Raquel down the hole with her foot, then leaps down
15[21:11] * 13@Jennifer lands roughly, takes only a moment to get her bearings and heads for the next hole.
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* The sentries reach the top hole, and begin to fire down into the hallway with the others that are not X and Lil
15[21:11] * 13@Kane jerks to grab Chii's hand and pulls her towards the new hole. 1Move down Lemon.
04[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer's tactical suit begins to self-repair like the others'
[21:11] <13@Kane> NRP: Move down into the hole.
[21:11] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon moves down afterwards.
15[21:12] * 13@Jennifer grumbles and moves down the hole to avoid fire.
04[21:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* KAne and Jennifer would find the hole blocked with weapon fire.
[21:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks up.
09[21:12] <13@Jennifer> "We need to get it clear..."
15[21:12] * 13@Kane backs up and then overloads the pistol, throwing it upward for the two sentries.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* The pistol explodes, and the weapon fire briefly stops
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 3
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 2
[21:13] <13@Kit> 6Chii finishes atop Kane, having leaped onto his shoulder and holds her hand up after the pistol goes through. 1"Doton!"
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 1
15[21:13] * 13@Kane dashes forward with jen
15[21:13] * 13@Jennifer jumps thought.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 0
[21:13] <13@Kane> NRP: Er Chii.
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* They open fire, but it stops with the doton move.
15[21:13] * 13@Kane moves to leap down into the hole now.
[21:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> I've lost track..." 6She pants and gasps. 1"...How ...many more?"
[21:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* A new sentry rolls up on the next floor, with 5 on it, approaching them. It comes to a stop, not aiming it's weapons yet.
[21:14] <13@Kane> This new one makes three left. 6He notes to Chii.
09[21:14] <13@Jennifer> "We might want to gamble a ripple at this point."
[21:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> Sad. This is the easy way and we can't keep this up.
[21:14] <13@DeathStar> 6* X turns to eye the next sentry. It begins to spin, a robotic voice speaking. "Number 5 is alive." 6* It moves off, leaving them alone.
09[21:14] <13@Jennifer> "...What the hell..."
15[21:14] * 13@Kane arches a brow.
04[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks at Jennifer now. "Use your things to wake Weapon IX up."
[21:15] <13@Kit> 6Chii snorts, then starts laughing.
[21:15] <13@Kane> I'm afraid i'm out of charges.
[21:15] <13@Kit> <Chii> Ah-hah... classic.
[21:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon stares at the sentry leaving. "Classic?"
[21:15] <13@Kit> <Chii> Uh. Nothing." 5She coughs, trying to return to a leaderly outlook despite being a kid. She jumps down from Kane.
09[21:16] <13@Jennifer> "Alright." *she gives Raquel a shot of medical nanites to make up for blood loss and then holds some smelling salts under Raquel's nose.*
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> <X> Should I ripple down the other three floors?
[21:17] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel coughs after the nanites start to take effect. She's groggy from the pain killers, which is probally good since she's missing an arm
[21:17] <13@Kit> <LIilith> ...I will risk the venture.
[21:17] <13@Kane> Do you believe you could get it in one ripple or would it take multiple tries?
[21:17] <13@DeathStar> <X> Rippling down 30 feet is doable.
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon appears focused on the sentry leaving, as if it were a cousin
[21:18] <13@Kane> It is risky. But I don't see another option at this moment.
09[21:18] <13@Jennifer> "Time to get up Raq. We've got badguys to fight."
[21:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* X nods, then opens a ripple.
[21:19] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods, not completely aware of what's going on.
15[21:19] * 13@Kane glances to Lilith and then moves towards the ripple.
15[21:19] * 13@Jennifer helps steady Raquel. "Now don't freak out or anything, just relax."
[21:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* The doors open and more sentries arrive, firing blasts
09[21:20] <13@Jennifer> "Time to go!"
[21:20] <13@Kane> <Kane> Is there a way to test, or is it a risk it all situati-I don't believe we have time to risk. 6He moves to go through the ripple now.
[21:20] <13@Kane> NRP: test* not risk.
[21:20] <13@Kit> 6Lilith stops Kane and moves through first.
[21:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* X jerks and moves through. Sadly, since X didn't pay attention to Lemon saying the last floor destination was a larger room than a hallway, they appear 15 feet above the floor, and begin to fall toward terminals and crates.
15[21:21] * 13@Kane pauses and moves through anyway, jerking slightly as they fall, reaching out to try and grasp onto something.
[21:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon turns and moves through the ripple as fast as she can, the blasts getting closer and more acurate.
[21:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Kane grasps air. Sadly, air isn't solid.
04[21:21] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel doesn't seem to really reconize Jennifer, and lets her assist her
15[21:22] * 13@Kane sighs as he falls, this is going to be painful.
04[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Due to their slowness, Jennifer must PREPARE HERSELF
15[21:22] * 13@Jennifer heads through the ripple as well, leading Raquel a bit hurriedly.
[21:22] <13@Kit> 6Lilith winces and grabs X and Kane, forming a barrier below herself to stand on.
[21:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Up, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, DOwn, Left, Right, Up

[21:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* They both make it.
[21:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* With Raquel.
[21:24] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel is glad. Sorta. Oooh, pretty lights.
[21:24] <13@Kit> 6Chii calms and straightens her body, folding and flipping, then lands, crouching peculiarly to cushion her fall, all ninja-like.
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon hit the ground hrad
[21:25] <13@Kit> 6Lilith drops her barrier and gently lowers to the ground, wincing as she focuses on magnetism.
[21:25] <13@DeathStar> <X> Thank you.
[21:25] <13@Kit> 6Chii stands slowly. 1"How unlady-like, Lem."
04[21:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer and Raquel would hit hard, too
15[21:25] * 13@Jennifer acks as she finds air where she expects floor but finds people under her at the same time, she lands on Chii.
15[21:25] * 13@Kane nods to Lilith. 1That barrier is interesting.
[21:26] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel is thankfully doped up on painkillers.
04[21:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Jennifer and Raquel land on Chii. "Mistress Chii!" 6* She rushes over in panic.
15[21:26] * 13@Kane glances to them, then peers around quickly to figure out where they are, looking for the device.
15[21:26] * 13@Jennifer blinks and rolls off Chii, she grumbles and blinks, moving over to check on Chii. "S-Sorry Chii! You okay?"
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* In the room is a bunch of sentries and officers, at their terminals, and are beginning to aim their weapons
[21:27] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...O-Ow... f-fuckers.
04[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon shoves JEnnifer roughly away and grabs Chii in a tearful hug
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I'm sorry. Forgive me, Mistress.
[21:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* X eyes the officers
[21:27] <13@Kane> We need a diversion. 6He notes, quickly pulling up his rifle to aim.
[21:27] <13@Kit> 6Chii sits up from being faceplanted, then blinks at Lemon. 1"...I-I'm fine. Jeez."
15[21:28] * 13@Jennifer grumbles as she falls backward hard and groans.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* One officer rushes to hit the alarm
15[21:28] * 13@Kane shifts to aim and fires for a headshot on that officer.
[21:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith hurtles her lance at him.
[21:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* KAne and Lilith kill the officer. The other 4 officers, and 4 guards fire at them in return
[21:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith then starts walking toward it, holding up a hand and snapping her fingers-- EMP.
[21:28] <13@Kit> <Lilith> New technology be damned...
15[21:29] * 13@Kane turns himself and begins to dash towards the right, frowning since Lilith basically shorted out all of his weapons and gadgets.
15[21:29] * 13@Jennifer brings herself up and eyes Lilith as she snaps, pulling out the non-energy handgun and fires at one of the officers.
[21:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens a ripple to protect Lilith. Kane must PREPARE HIMSELF

[21:30] <13@Kit> <Chii> I recovered from being cut to pieces, once. This is nothing.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon raises her hand and fires energy shots at an officer with no armor, killing him.
[21:30] <13@Kit> 6Chii draws her guns and begins firing on the human targets in the room over Lemon's shoulders.
[21:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* Another guard rushes for a sentry bot to turn him on
15[21:30] * 13@Kane pull up two disc and throws them each out for one of the sentries, they are the electric kind.
09[21:31] <13@Jennifer> "Sorry again Chii-senpai."
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* The guard stops as Kane fries them
[21:31] <13@Kit> <Chii> Sh-Shut up. Jeez. I'm not a little kid.." 6She rapid fires around the guard's feet. 1"Hold it."
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* The remaining six humans try to escape out the door.
[21:31] <13@Kit> <Chii> None of you move.
[21:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* They ignore her
15[21:31] * 13@Jennifer fires at another officer. "Th-That meant you were older then me..."
15[21:31] * 13@Kane pulls out an energy knife and activates it, throwing it out for the first human trying to escape, hoping if he get him in the neck, it'll cause a jam up.
[21:32] <13@Kit> 6Chii fires precise shops for the second and third, firing for the legs of the fourth and fifth.
[21:32] <13@Kit> NRP: Shop~shots. >_>
04[21:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer and Kane shoot down two more humans. The remaining four turn and fire at Jennifer, all at once, before they're shot in the legs. Prepare yourself, Jennifer

[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* The other two guards aim at Raquel, sensing weakness, and fire at her
15[21:33] * 13@Kane tisks and turns to moves towards Jen, sliding to catch her from her fall.

[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Raquel is shot twice.
15[21:33] * 13@Jennifer cries out as takes a hard shot in her arm, anotehr hitting her metal hand and clanging, the two leg shots causing her to fall over, they bleed.
[21:33] <13@Kit> 6Lilith tenses as Raquel is shot, retrieving her spear and narrowing her eyes at the guards.
04[21:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* The two guards aim at Jennifer and fire at her again.
15[21:34] * 13@Kane catches her and moves to pull her to the side.
[21:34] <13@Kit> 6Chii fires for their arms-- both and both of them, now. She starts to throatily growl.
04[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer's tactical suit begins to repair itself.
[21:34] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel falls over, cringing at the shots. Fortunately, she's wearing her tacsuit, but she still felt that through the painkillers.
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* The two guards drop their weapons and fall to the ground in pain
[21:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves to check on Raquel.
[21:34] <13@Kit> 6Lilith walks over to the de-weaponed guards, a dark look on her face as she looms.
15[21:35] * 13@Jennifer pulls out a nanite injector as she's pulled away and sticks it into her legs, clicking twice, she stays down for now as they do their work.
04[21:35] * 13@Kane places Jennifer on the ground, then glances up and peers around for the device.
[21:35] <13@Kit> 6Chii moves from Lemon and starts to tower over them too, as much as her height in pale to Lilith's can.
[21:35] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks at X, "...that... really... HURT..."
[21:35] <13@DeathStar> 6* One guard pulls out a grenade, and activates it
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* There's lot of terminals and devices.
[21:36] <13@Kit> 6Lilith cleaves to send the grenade to a harmless corner-- along with his hand.
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> 6* The grenade would explain before Lilith's cleave reaches - apparantly a 0 second thing. The explosion would hit Chii and Lilith
[21:36] <13@DeathStar> Explode
[21:36] <13@Kane> Lemon. Which device is the one that we are searching for?
[21:36] <13@Kit> 6Chii wails as she flies backwards, Lilith throwing her arms up, but slamming back into the wall she got her spear from
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon turns to focus on Chii, catching her.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Are you okay, Chii?!
[21:37] <13@Kane> Lemon. The Device!
15[21:37] * 13@Jennifer holds her gun in her fake hand, the other arm limp as it bleeds.
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Their tactical suits would be very much damaged now, their faces the only thing damaged from the explosion
[21:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* X moves to check on Lilith now, offering her energy to heal.
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Kane, then back at Chii, not answering him
[21:38] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...I have to admit, that hurt... a bit... ngh..
09[21:38] <13@Jennifer> "Secure the device and send the signal... we gotta get out of here."
[21:38] <13@Kane> Lemon. If we don't get that device and get out of here, she'll die for sure. As will Cheryl.
[21:38] <13@Kit> 6Lilith slides down the wall, leaving a bit of a bloodstreak on it. She just sits silently.
[21:38] <13@DeathStar> 6* X kneels by Lilith, touching her and focusing her life energy to heal any major injuries.
[21:39] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel slowly pulls herself to her feet.
15[21:40] * 13@Kane sighs and moves over to the console, to try and find it himself.
[21:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon sets Chii down and moves to grab a datapad like device. "This is it. It will locate any crystals and beep---" 6* A blast suddenly flies in and slams into her and the datapad, causing it to explode on her and send her slamming into a terminal
[21:40] <13@Kit> 6Lilith waves her hand at X, frowning a bit.
[21:41] <13@Kit> <Chii> ..L-Lemon!?
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias steps into the room
15[21:41] * 13@Kane hisses and turns around to eye Alt Dias. 1Damnit.
[21:41] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon falls to the floor on her face, sparking. Her tactical suit is several crippled.
15[21:42] * 13@Kane eyes Alt Dias and pulls up his backup pistol, aiming.
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* X turns to face ALternate Dias
[21:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* She narrows her eyes and forms her energy blade, rushing in at Alternate Dias.
[21:43] <13@Kit> 6Chii leaps up and moves to check on Lemon, sniffling slightly.
15[21:43] * 13@Kane moves forward as well, though he veers to the left so X won't be in his line of fire.
[21:43] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel tenses, awkwardly drawing her sword.
[21:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias waits for X to come in, then dodges her slash, slamming his fist into her stomach - the tactical suit actually crunches, and her ribs shatter, despite it's protection
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* He then twists and punches her in the head, causing her to spit out a glob of blood as she goes flying back.
15[21:44] * 13@Kane fires three shots for Alt Dias.
[21:44] <13@Kit> 6Chii twitches slightly, then rises, twisting quickly and drawing both guns, sending a literal rain of bullets at alt Dias as X flies off.
15[21:44] * 13@Jennifer looks around for another one of those devices from her position, wincing a bit as the nanites work on her.
[21:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias holds up a hand to take the shots, then pauses, focusing. Chii's bullets reflect off of him in various angles back at them.
[21:45] <13@DeathStar> 6* There appears to be no more devices in this room like that one
15[21:45] * 13@Kane jerks to dive to the left and out of the way.
[21:45] <13@Kit> <Chii> You stupid, stupid son of a bitch!!" 6She drops the guns, pulling out her blades and hurtling them both at Dias from different diagonals, then her fuuma shuriken from above, holding out one hand in a sign, sealing with the other. 1"Futon!" 6She encases each in the cutting wind.
[21:46] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel moves to X's side, trying her best to focus. She can't keep up well enough to try to fight this opponent directly, but she can still keep her friends safe.
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon stirs and begins to rise, damaged still. She looks like she's pissed, making a Cheryl expression
15[21:47] * 13@Kane pulls up the rectangular device and pulls back, throwing it towards Dias with all his might. If it hit him, it would do the lashing around to entangle him with synthetic arm-like 'tentacles'.
15[21:47] * 13@Jennifer watches, out of combat even though she's completely coherent, being that her legs are doing a Die Hard impression right now.
[21:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias peers at all of Chii's weapons, then at Kane as he entangles him. He strains, and shatters it, then dashes in at Raquel.
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I-I have downloaded...the...data from the...device...and c-can locate...the crystals... 6* She manages to say, her voice shakey.
[21:48] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel pulls back her sword to strike... and creates a ripple under Alt Dias' feet, to drop him back on the other side of the room
09[21:48] <13@Jennifer> "Lemon... mission accomplished then... get us out of here."
[21:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias just skips over the ripple with ease and lands in front of Raquel.
[21:49] <13@Kane> 6* Kane pulls up his rifle and aims for Dias. Firing towards his head.
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I-I cannot...I am..damaged.
[21:49] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel holds her sword threateningly
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer> "Do we have a backup for the signal?"
[21:49] <13@Kit> 6Chii moves at a diagonal to intercept, or try, Dias, not fast enought o keep up, but just enough to perceive. She leaps, sending her foot towards his side. 1"Don't ignore me!!"
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer> "Can I use my pad or something?"
[21:49] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> Any of us...can continue...onward...but if we leave..the others will not .. know.
09[21:49] <13@Jennifer> "How do we all go then?"
[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias avoids the shot, then grabs Raquel's only arm and pulls her in front of Chii's foot.
04[21:50] <13@Kane> Try to get in contact with Cheryl. 6He tells Jennifer.
04[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon just stares at Jennifer, twitching once, annoyed now like Cheryl would be
09[21:50] <13@Jennifer> "Right..." *she grabs her comms, trying to get in contact with Cheryl*
04[21:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer's comm would only get static.
[21:50] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel attempts to stab AltDias in the side as she's grabbed
09[21:50] <13@Jennifer> "No good."
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias' grip on her arm doesn't allow her the chance to stab
[21:51] <13@Kit> 6Chii unfortunately plants her foot into Raquel, walking up her to flip and stomp down at alt Dias anyway. She can be heard muttering. 1"Katon." 6One hand glowering red, the other greenish-white.
[21:51] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel is rather used to having two arms
15[21:51] * 13@Kane holds his fire as he aims towards Dias still. 1The wounded should continue on.
[21:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias swings Raquel like a whip at Chii to knock her away.
[21:52] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel telekinetically slaps AltDias. No arms required for that.
[21:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon moves toward the battle, getting her hands ready
09[21:52] <13@Jennifer> "Chii! Your bond!"
[21:52] <13@Kit> 6Chii cries slightly as she's hit, but grabs Raquel with her legs, dropping below her, sending both hands flat-palmed in an attempt to touch Dias' stomach with both.
[21:52] <13@Kit> 6Lilith groans, slowly starting to get up.
15[21:52] * 13@Kane shifts to his feet and moves forward, putting the rifle back onto his back as he lifts up his pistol, pulling out two discs.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias lets Raquel go and leaps back from the hand touch; the slap seems to have little effect.
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon fires blasts after Alternate Dias, who just weaves through them.
15[21:53] * 13@Kane throws out a disc for Alt Dias, to shock him.
[21:53] <13@Kit> <Chii> Raquel, ripple so I can touch him. Now!"
[21:53] <13@Kane> CHII CONTACT CHERYL THROUGH THE BOND!
[21:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias then avoids the disc with a twirl. He rushes in at Lemon
15[21:53] * 13@Kane fires at the disc to cause it to give an explosive feedback of an explosion for Dias' back.
[21:54] <13@Kane> NRP: electric for first explosive.
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Sadly, Alternate Dias is too fast.
[21:54] <13@Kit> <Chii> Raquel!
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias rushes in and punches Lemon in the face, then grabs her throat.
15[21:54] * 13@Jennifer checks gun and lifts it up in her fake hand, waiting for a good shot. "CHII DO IT NOW."
[21:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* He begins to tighten his grip to crush her throat.
[21:54] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel eyes Alt Dias, and wasn't going to create the ripple... until he goes for Lemon
15[21:54] * 13@Kane hisses and rushes forward after Alt Dias, not as fast as those fancy ripples.
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon strains, but it's clear in a matter of seconds, her head will be removed.
[21:55] <13@Kit> 6Chii sends her hands, assuming there is a ripple with that comment, and just tries to touch Dias' body with both, making a snapping motion.
[21:55] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias turns suddenly and lets Chii touch Lemon
15[21:55] * 13@Jennifer fires a shot for Dias' side after he turns.
[21:56] <13@Kit> <Chii> Let him have it, Lemon!!
15[21:56] * 13@Kane leaps up while he's turnign Chii and tries to impale two blades into Dias' neck.
[21:56] <13@Kit> 6Chii backs up slightly, closing her eyes with a lift of her head. <Cherry..!?>
04[21:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias uses his other hand to lift a hand up, and Kane is repulsed backwards into Jennifer's shot.
15[21:56] * 13@Kane grunts in pain at that, hitting the ground, sliding along it.
09[21:56] <13@Jennifer> "Kane!"
09[21:57] <13@Jennifer> "Damnit..."
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon strains, but doesn't seem to be letting him have it.
[21:57] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> <Chii....?>
[21:57] <13@Kit> <Chii> <Lemon has the data, she says. That guy is here!>
15[21:58] * 13@Kane groans and starts to push himself to his feet.
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias tightens his grip and a crunch is heard, and he drops Lemon like a discarded doll.
[21:58] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> <Then tell everyone to touch the devices on their hands and get out of there.>
[21:58] <13@Kit> <Chii> <Sh-Shit, Lemon!>
15[21:58] * 13@Kane throws out one of the knifes for Dias' head/neck area.
[21:59] <13@Kane> NRP: knives*
09[21:59] <13@Jennifer> "S-Someone... get Lemon..."
[21:59] <13@Kit> <Chii> Everyone, hit the button, get the fuck out of here.
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias just swings a fist to deflect the knife. Lemon rises suddenly, and punches Alternate Dias in the gut, unleashing a fire storm into him, to his surprise. Apparantly she tricked him somehow
[21:59] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> <What happened to Lemon? If she's dead, we can't leave!>
[22:00] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hit the fucking button and get lost, you losers!
[22:00] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel stops, about to create a ripple for Lemon, surprised to see her get up suddenly.
[22:00] <13@Kit> 6Chii moves, collecting her weapons, and as she passes Raquel, slams the back of her hand onto Raquel's device.
15[22:00] * 13@Jennifer stares a moment in surprise, before reaching down to her hand and tapping the button.
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon touches her own. X is unconscious, sadly.
15[22:01] * 13@Kane moves over towards X, hitting her device.
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* As a person's button is touched, they vanish. Alternate Dias emerges nude from the flames.
[22:01] <13@Kit> 6Lilith kneels by X, touching X's as Kane does. She eyes him, then hits Kane's for him, then her own as payback.
[22:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* He appears unharmed.
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* He rushes at Chii
[22:02] <13@Kit> 6Chii slides her guns into their holsters, then latches her fuuma and sheaths her blades, reaching to her device. 1"You really are too stupid to die. But don't worry. Everyone learns in time." 6She hits it.
15[22:02] * 13@Kane curses that Lilith, somewhere, somehow.
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> Location: Stair Case
[22:02] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias would wake to being shaken
[22:03] <13Dias`> 6Dias slowly opens his eyes, groaning slightly. 1"Uh...How many bottles did I have?"
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl shakes him; they're surrounded by twisted metal. John nods, then hits his device.
[22:03] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> No time. Time to go. 6* She hits his device, then her own. They'd appear with the others on a field of green - everyone is there but Raquel, John, and Lilith
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon is kneeling, her throat red and raw. She appears to be in a lot of pain
15[22:04] * 13Dias` rubs his face as he reappears, his eyes peering around as he readjusts.
[22:04] <13@Kit> 6Chii gasps after appearing, then eyes Lemon apologetically, saying nothing.
15[22:04] * 13@Jennifer oofs as she loses the wall behind her and falls back a bit. "Well... I've appeared in worse places."
15[22:04] * 13@Kane kneels by X, checking her over.
[22:04] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Mistress, are you okay?
[22:04] <13@Kane> She is unconcious.
[22:04] <13@DeathStar> 6* X is still unconscious
[22:05] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I am confident she can hear me.
15[22:05] * 13Dias` slowly pushes himself up as he moves over to X.
09[22:05] <13@Jennifer> "Head count... we all here?"
[22:06] <13@Kane> No. 6He he notes, sitting up then moving over to peer at Lemon's damage.
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl holds her side, looking like she's hurting. "No."
15[22:06] * 13@Jennifer slowly pushes herself up, wobbling a bit, standing unsteadily before deciding to sit in the grass.
[22:06] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Cherry. Lemon..
[22:06] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon's chest is bleeding, and her neck looks like it should have been broken, judging by the crack, yet it's not.
15[22:06] * 13Dias` winces in pain as he grabs his side, stopping after a second. His eyes close and he grits his teeth and starts moving over to X again.
15[22:06] * 13@Kane eyes the blood. 1She bleeds.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> There is a reality crystal nearby. 6* She states, her voice hoarse.
[22:07] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes KAne. "Yeah. No good as a sex bot if she can't feel warm to snuggle against or orgasm."
15[22:07] * 13Dias` kneels down slowly and he puts his hand on her chest, checking for a heartbeat
[22:08] <13@Kit> <Chii> Who cares about that!? What about your injuries!?
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* X has a heartbeat, though her breathing is shallow.
[22:08] <13@Kane> Ah. I see. I don't imagine she'll be able to go furthur. That neck wound is serious.
[22:08] <13@Kane> Or at least...it should be.
15[22:08] * 13Dias` leans down and kisses her on the lips.
15[22:08] * 13@Jennifer crawls over to X and takes out her supplies, starting to work on her injuries.
[22:08] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon looks at Chii. Looking confused. "Isn't that our mission?" 6* She croaks.
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* X pauses a moment, then begins to twitch, and slaps Dias on the face, after draining him a bit
[22:09] <13@Kit> <Chii> H-Hrmph. You're detecting the crystal, aren't you? That pad broke, so if you're broke, it hardly matters.
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> ...I am...broke?
15[22:09] * 13@Jennifer pulsl away so her treatment doesn't injure X more when she slaps, then goes back to work calmly.
[22:09] <13Dias`> 6Dias' face jerks to the side from the slap. 1"Ow..."
[22:09] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl moves over to Lemon, kneeling and checking her throat, tenderly. Lemon pauses, looking like she's confused. <Lemon> Do you require sex?
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> 6* X opens her violet eyes slowly.
[22:10] <13@Kane> Do you have interal systems diagnostics? 6He asks Lemon.
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> No. Her neck isn't broken. What happened?
[22:10] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> ... They are not working.
09[22:10] <13@Jennifer> "There, all patched up. No attempting to kill Dias for at least a day."
[22:10] <13@Kit> <Chii> Dias... the other... he crunched her like a tin can..
[22:10] <13@Kane> I heard it. I was certain it was broken.
15[22:11] * 13Dias` falls back on his ass as he holds onto his ribs now. 1"You better, X?"
15[22:11] * 13@Jennifer smiles she was saying it as a joke.
[22:11] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I used Mistress Chii's wind ability to protect my neck, and in desperation - made it sound like damage. It required a fine tuning of the wind currents to achieve the optimal frequency needed for a snapping sound
[22:11] <13@Kit> 6Chii pauses, then gapes. 1"..."
15[22:12] * 13@Kane tilts his head a bit, observing her damage more. 1Interesting. I don't believe Chii can do that.
[22:12] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Sh-Shut up!" 6She glares at Kane.
[22:12] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl peers at Lemon, then stands up. "...from now on, we need to protect Lemon. If her neck is broken, we'll never recover her. She'll be dead. If she has the data we need, she must be protected above everyone else."
09[22:12] <13@Jennifer> "Yes Ma'am."
[22:13] <13@Kane> I can attempt to repair her, though I will need some supplies. Of course, I understand if you do not desire me to be near her internal systems.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X sits up, then seems to have trouble breathing. "I think...my lung was...punctured."
[22:13] <13@Kit> <Chii> You're not getting anywhere near internal with her!
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> You don't understand me. Her brain is like a human brain. She gets broken, she's broken.
15[22:13] * 13@Jennifer looks back down at X. "Feel pain anywhere in particular?"
15[22:13] * 13Dias` looks at her, concern on his face. 1"Still?"
09[22:13] <13@Jennifer> "If I inject nanites in the right spot it might help."
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> 6* X just motions at her chest.
[22:13] <13@Kane> I'm talking about her current damage, Cheryl. She is still quite injured. 6He notes.
[22:13] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Just give her nanites.
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> It won't repair her systems, but it will treat the injuries.
[22:14] <13@Kit> <Chii> How do we fix her systems?
15[22:14] * 13@Jennifer nods a bit and very clinically inspects X's chest for the wound. She takes ane ducated guess and injects the nanites.
04[22:14] * 13@Kane stands and moves over to take a nanite injection out of Jennifer's bag.
[22:14] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> We'll have to hook her up to a datapad, open her up, mess around inside her. But if we do that, we might lose the data she got.
[22:15] <13@DeathStar> 6* X looks at Dias now. "You failed to beat him."
09[22:15] <13@Jennifer> "We're gonna have to be careful or hope we find a good hospital in one of the realities, my supplies aren't infinite..." *she checks her back worriedly*
09[22:15] <13@Jennifer> *bag
15[22:16] * 13Dias` frowns now, looking off to the side. 1"Yeah, I did."
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> It'll take days for some of your tactical suits to repair, too, judging by the looks of it. Now we need to find the crystal and the other three.
[22:16] <13@Kit> 6Chii sighs, then hugs Lemon. 1"...You should see if you can get the system check thing up and running, but take it easy, 'kay?"
15[22:16] * 13@Kane moves over back to Lemon and places the injector into her neck, giving her the nanites.
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon winces at the injection, but then cuddles against Chii lovingly. "Yes, mistress."
[22:16] <13@Kit> <Chii> Hope this is an easy world..
[22:16] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl goes to respond when she hears a roaring sound, unlike anything before. A large dinosaur begins to approach
09[22:17] <13@Jennifer> "...Don't ever say that Chii."
09[22:17] <13@Jennifer> "See you jynxed it."
15[22:18] * 13Dias` slowly looks over at the large dinosaur approaching and starts to push himself up
[22:18] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes it approaching. X begins to try to stand. "Lilith is that way." 6* She points. Lemon puases, then points the other way. <Lemon> The crystal is that way.
[22:18] <13@Kane> Should we go for the crystal, or get the others first?
[22:18] <13Dias`> You guys get the crystal, we'll get Lilith.
15[22:18] * 13@Kane looks to see which way is Dinosaur-less.
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> If we get the crystal, we can just have Lemon synch us all up and go.
15[22:19] * 13Dias` glances at X to see if she's ok with that.
[22:19] <13@Kit> <Chii> Wh-What the hell is that thing!?
[22:19] <13@Kit> 6Chii stares at the dinosaur.
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* X frowns, but looks away.
15[22:19] * 13@Jennifer stays seated for the moment. "I vote for the fast route... and that appears to be a dinosaur."
[22:19] <13@DeathStar> 6* The dinosaur, a T-Rex like beast, rushes at them as fast as it can
[22:20] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Dinosaur!?
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Lemon, lead the way now. 6* She orders. Lemon strains to stand up
09[22:20] <13@Jennifer> "Ancient lizard... and it looks hungry." *she stands up slowly and pulls out her gun again*
[22:20] <13@Kit> 6Chii forms seals in a panic, then raises a hand. 1"R-Raiton!" 6She brings her hand down, and after a moment, conjurs a bolt of lightning down at the dinosaur.
15[22:20] * 13@Kane pulls up his rifle, eying it. He fires a shot for his knee, trying to make it fall, slamming the hammer forward to give it some extra umph.
15[22:20] * 13Dias` shifts an arm around X to help her stand.
[22:20] <13@DeathStar> 6* The dinosaur is hit by the lightning, letting out a roar. It falls over
[22:21] <13@Kit> 6Chii stares, then laughs nervously and gets a cocky look. 1"Hah! Overgrown lizard sandwich." 6She nods.
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> 6* Raptors suddenly start coming in at them now.
09[22:21] <13@Jennifer> "The big ones I'm not worried about."
[22:21] <13@Kit> <Chii> Wh-what the fuck are those!?
[22:21] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Someone pick up Lemon and have her point the way out to the crystal now.
[22:21] <13Dias`> I'd say hungry.
[22:22] <13@Kit> <Chii> Then why don't they eat the felled lizard!?
15[22:22] * 13@Kane reaches out to throw out one of the subduing devices for a Raptor, moving over to lift Lemon up.
09[22:22] <13@Jennifer> "Velociraptor I'd say, they hunt like cats."
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Great. Lizard Megumis
[22:22] <13@Kit> 6Chii forms more seals, then throws her hand up and brings it down, bringing down a flaming fireball amidst the raptors. 1"S-Suck on this!"
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon winces a bit as she's lifted.
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* She points westward
15[22:22] * 13@Kane nods to her and begins to move on. 1Follow me, quickly.
[22:22] <13@DeathStar> 6* The raptors scurry away and hide in the grass.
09[22:22] <13@Jennifer> "Don;t worry about their teeth, worry about their claws. Science class pays off!"
15[22:23] * 13Dias` starts to move with X, helping her along
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* X walks along. "I'm fine. I do not need your help."
15[22:23] * 13@Jennifer moves after Kane.
[22:23] <13Dias`> Sorry. 6He pulls his arm back.
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl turns and begins to go. "Jesus, I hope the other three are fine."
[22:23] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[22:23] <13@Kit> 6Chii stumbles to her feet and moves quickly to Cheryl's side, paranoically looking back after the raptors.
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> Location: Native Village
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lilith and Raquel would find themselves surrounded by mostly nude humans, who are staring at them and John.
[22:24] <13@Kit> 6Lilith waves her light spear at them threateningly.
[22:24] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...I... think we're lost."
[22:24] <13@DeathStar> 6* The natives cower in fear
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Lilith. "You think that's really a good ideA?"
[22:25] <13@Kit> <Lilith> I will not be ambushed.
[22:25] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "Um... Hello? Bonjour? Konnichi wa?" *hopes to get them to speak*
[22:25] <13@Kit> 6Lilith falters to a knee after a moment, wheezing.
[22:25] <13@DeathStar> 6* The natives quickly bring a beautiful girl to them, offering her to them to appease the three, mumbling in their language.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> <John> Uh, don't show a weakness after threatening them, Lil!
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* He pauses as he eyes the beautiful native girl being offered.
[22:26] <13@Kit> <Lilith> No... energy." 6She puts the spear inside herself, perhaps a weird thing to the natives, then reverts to her large malamute dog form.
[22:26] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel attempts to read their minds to pick out something helpful... but she never was the best at that.
[22:26] <13@DeathStar> 6* The human natives freak out even more at Lilith's form change, then begin to bow, their faces touching the ground as they grovel
[22:27] <13@Kit> 6Lilith sits like a proud canine, eyeing them impassively.
[22:27] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "I... don't think this is getting any easier for us..."
[22:27] <13@DeathStar> 6* John takes the girl. "Well, we shouldn't offend them." 6* He takes her hand.
[22:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith eyes John and growls slightly.
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> 6* John eyes Lilith. "What?!"
[22:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith snorts and upturns her nose-- as if scoffing at him for taking the woman.
[22:28] <13@DeathStar> <John> Do you want to offend them and have them eat you?
[22:28] <13@Kit> 6Lilith growls at him again.
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> Bad, dog.
[22:29] <13@Kit> 6Lilith snorts again.
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> 6* John pauses as a beam appears and Alternate Dias steps out of the vortex that forms. He eyes the natives who turn to face him, then reaches out, backhanding one's head from his shoulders
[22:29] <13@DeathStar> <John> Shit. No way. They managed to track us?!
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> 6* John tenses, pulling the girl behind him to protect her.
[22:30] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel turns to see Alt.Dias, and freezes in her tracks.
[22:30] <13@DeathStar> <John> You two need to run right now. I'll try to slow him down
[22:31] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias begins to approach as the natives flee in terror.
[22:31] <13@Kit> 6Lilith turns and nudges Raquel, then roughly shoves her upward, figuring she'll grab on like old days.
[22:31] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel tries to grab on... but... one arm makes it hard
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* John rushes at Alternate Dias, kicking out at him.
[22:32] <13@Kit> 6Lilith pauses, then focuses on the tactical suit having reins.
[22:32] <13@Kit> 6Lilith takes off like a bat out of hell after she grabs ahold.
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias and John begin to collide and battle each other. Though it's clearly going in Dias' favor.
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> -SCENE SHIFT-
[22:32] <13@DeathStar> Location: Near a Volcano
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon points at a smoking volcano in the distance. "It's in there."
09[22:33] <13@Jennifer> "Oh, wonderful."
[22:33] <13Dias`> <Dias> And here I forgot my flame proof swimming trunks
[22:33] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl makes a face.
09[22:33] <13@Jennifer> "We need to see a better travel agent."
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> 6* X seems distracted, peering the way they came.
15[22:34] * 13@Kane frowns. 1How are we to retrieve it?
[22:34] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Guess we'll see when we get to the top of it.
15[22:35] * 13@Kane nods and moves towards it, climbing while carrying Lemon will prove difficult.
[22:35] <13Dias`> She'll be fine X, Lilith can handle herself
[22:35] <13@DeathStar> <X> Something is wrong.
09[22:35] <13@Jennifer> "All the more reason to hurry up."
[22:36] <13Dias`> How so>
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> <X> She's agitated.
[22:37] <13Dias`> She is with John.
[22:37] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl walks along, reaching the bottom of the volcano. The heat here is incredible.
[22:37] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Uh, short of using Deep Freeze, if it's in the volcano... good luck.
[22:38] <13@Kane> Maybe Dias can will himself to be immune to the lava.
09[22:38] <13@Jennifer> "Dias can always will it out or something." *she walks along, hobbling a bit as her legs are still healing*
[22:38] <13Dias`> We just have to do it the same way that Alt Dias pulled it out.
[22:39] <13@Kane> You can do that? 6He sounds interested.
[22:39] <13Dias`> 6Dias shrugs, never having tried.
[22:39] <13@DeathStar> 6* X and Cheryl trudge up the volcano sloop. After a bit of a journey, they reach the top, where heat and steam is even worse. The volcano has lava bubbling inside
15[22:40] * 13@Kane peers around for a crystal, glancing to Lemon to see if she can point it out.
15[22:40] * 13Dias` stands at the top beside X and Cheryl as he looks down at the lava, sweat beading off him
[22:40] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon just peers at the lava, not pointing at anything, probably not gathering anyone wants her ot
[22:40] <13@Kane> I see. 6He notes with a frown.
[22:41] <13@Kit> <Chii> Figures. Should I try Deep Freeze?
15[22:41] * 13@Jennifer fans herself a little and frowns. "Where is it Lemon?"
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> In the lava.
04[22:41] <13@Kit> 6Chii eyes Jennifer in annoyance.
09[22:41] <13@Jennifer> "I... was thinking a bit more of an exact... but alright..."
15[22:41] * 13@Jennifer rubs the back of her head.
15[22:41] * 13Dias` rubs sweat and blood from his brow as he stares at the lava. 1"That'll just lock it all in frozen lava.
[22:41] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> That is exact.
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Behind them, Lilith can be seen running up with Raquel ridding her. X looks surprised. <X> Lilith!
15[22:42] * 13Dias` looks over at Cheryl. 1"We have no choice, I'm gonna have to will it out."
09[22:42] <13@Jennifer> "So how did the other Dias do it?"
[22:42] <13@Kit> <Chii> Dude. It's lava. Best I'd do is make a luke-warm mud.
09[22:42] <13@Jennifer> "Better then Lava."
[22:42] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl frowns. "I guess we have no choice."
[22:42] <13@Kane> Let Dias try.
[22:43] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...Whatever.
[22:43] <13Dias`> 6Dias takes a deep breath and holds his hand out, willing the crystal to him.
[22:43] <13@DeathStar> 6* The only thing Dias wills is a gushing nose bleed. The crystal doesn't even shimmer in the lava. Cheryl catches Dias before he topples in
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> 6* X kneels to peer at Lilith and Raquel. "You found us." 6* She sounds relieved
[22:44] <13@Kane> Hmm. Unfortunate. How would one aquire it without Dias. If there are multiple units searching for these.
[22:44] <13@Kit> 6Lilith sits, allowing Raquel off.
15[22:44] * 13Dias` slumps forward as Cheryl catches him, he frowns.
[22:44] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> The devices are what summon the crystal. But I cannot do that
09[22:45] <13@Jennifer> "So... what do we do...? Chii's idea?"
[22:45] <13@Kit> 6Chii starts forming seals quickly. 1"...Suiton... Hyoton... Futon..." 6She raises a hand up, closing her eyes, chanting silently.
[22:45] <13@Kane> Ah I see. Since I believe most will be underground, I don't believe we'll be able get many of them.
[22:46] <13@DeathStar> 6* Approaching the volcano, Alternate Dias rushes inward, just a blurring dot to those up there
[22:46] <13@Kit> 6Chii brings her hand down, altering the atmosphere immediately around the volcano and channels it down into the funnel. 1"Deep Freeze!"
15[22:46] * 13@Jennifer looks back and frowns. "What's that...?"
[22:46] <13@Kit> 6Lilith whines slightly, eyeing Raquel silent.
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> 6* The lava cools somewhat, but it would take a mighty man of willpower to get in there and look for a crystal
[22:47] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel shakes her head clear, "...he's here..."
[22:47] <13@Kit> <Chii> I'll keep channeling... ngh... g-go get it, boys."
[22:47] <13@DeathStar> <X> 'He'?
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes Dias, then decides to do it herself, apparantly.
[22:48] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel nods, glancing towards Dias, not sure what to call the other Dias.
15[22:48] * 13Dias` eyes Cherly himself. 1"I'll do it."
[22:48] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...John's in trouble."
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias rushes up the volcano suddenly.
[22:48] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> ... 6* She eyes Raquel, then eyes Alt.
15[22:49] * 13@Kane turns slightly and peers at Alt Dias. 1I think we are the ones in trouble.
[22:49] <13Dias`> 6Dias leaps into the volcano as Cheryl looks away, clearly willing his body into being able to handle the semi cooled lava.
[22:49] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...yeah... that one..." *hugs Lilith*
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias' head begins to pound powerfully bad.
[22:49] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl activates her whip now. X narrows her eyes.
15[22:49] * 13@Jennifer turns and gets ready.
[22:50] <13Dias`> 6Dias sinks for a moment as he clutches his head in pain.
15[22:50] * 13@Kane peers and Lemon and then sets her down. 1Get the next destination ready for us. 6He tells her, turning to pull up his rifle.
[22:50] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias' body would burn. Shimmering in the lava is the crystal.
[22:50] <13Dias`> 6Dias moves towards the crystal, fighting through the head pounding and the burning.
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon nods once. Alternate Dias leaps up and swings at Cheryl, who brings her arms up to take it.
[22:51] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl is knocked backwards, and begins to fall into the volcano
[22:51] <13@Kit> <Chii> Ch-Cherry! Shit!
15[22:52] * 13Dias` grabs for the crystal
15[22:52] * 13@Kane slams the hammer forward to add charge to his rifle, shifting himself to aim towards Alt Dias, firing.
[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Dias would touch it.
15[22:52] * 13@Jennifer hops back just a bit and grabs at Cheryl's tact suit.
04[22:52] <13@DeathStar> 6* Jennifer's grab just pulls her in as well
[22:52] <13@Kit> 6Lilith shifts forms, being near X again and hurtles her lance out of herself, leaping to shove it into the side of the volcano shaft so Cheryl has something to support herself.
15[22:52] * 13Dias` grabs onto it and tries to swim to the surface
15[22:52] * 13@Jennifer grabs at the ground while holding onto Cheryl.
04[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* JEnnifer would fail. As the two fall, Cheryl would grab the spear.
15[22:53] * 13@Jennifer holds onto Cheryl for dear life.
[22:53] <13@DeathStar> 6* ALternate Dias faces off with Kane now
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Ungh...
15[22:54] * 13@Kane slams the hammer forward again and fires another shot, aiming toward his chest.
[22:54] <13@Kit> 6Lilith wrenches on the spear, trying to yank both back up.
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Alternate Dias uses his hand to block it. Dias would reach the surface.
[22:54] <13Dias`> 6Dias breaks the surface. 1"I got it!"
09[22:54] <13@Jennifer> "Gonna climb up, then you won't have me weighing you down."
[22:54] <13@Kit> <Chii> Th-Then get out of there, moron! I can't do this all day!
15[22:54] * 13@Kane throws out the ensnaring decive for Alt. Dias, firing for his left leg after slamming the hammer forward again.
[22:54] <13@DeathStar> 6* Lemon closes her eyes, and suddenly everyone's vision goes white, then they find themselves surrounded by endless miles of sand dunes.
[22:55] <13@Ariel> 6* Raquel looks around, "...w...what happened?"
[22:55] <13@Kit> <Lilith> Reality Shift.
15[22:55] * 13Dias` lays in the sand, breathing heavily.
15[22:55] * 13@Jennifer elts go of Cheryl and collapses onto the sand. "Ugh... that attempt at heroism backfired..."
[22:55] <13@Kit> 6Chii slumps, then shrieks. 1"A-Aiee! H-Hot! Fuck, fuck, fuck!"
[22:56] <13@Kit> 6Chii writhes about in the sands.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl pants, then takes the crystal from Dias, handing it to LEmon, who touches it, and it vanishes. X makes faces from the sand.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I cannot detect the exact location of the reality crystal here - it could be too far away.
09[22:56] <13@Jennifer> "...Hot?"
15[22:56] * 13@Kane tilts his head a bit at is vanishing, and then peers around for John.
[22:56] <13@DeathStar> 6* No sign of John.
[22:56] <13@Kit> 6Chii hops back to her feet, dancing from foot to foot. 1"The sand, bitch, it's hot!"
[22:56] <13@Kane> Lemon, did John make it?
[22:57] <13@Kit> <Lilith> His spirit was weak, but did not disappear.
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I don't know. I didn't synch with his device.
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl picks Chii up
[22:57] <13@Kit> 6Lilith shrugs. 1"However, we left, so I cannot tell."
15[22:57] * 13@Kane stares at Lemon. 1We don't leave people behind.
15[22:57] * 13Dias` slowly rolls onto his back but doesn't get up
[22:57] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I cannot synch with what is not there. 6* She notes plainly, as if she is instructing Kane like a child.
15[22:57] * 13@Jennifer looks up at the sky and sighs, she taps her tact suit and changes into something more fitting for the heat. A loose tank top and shorts and a pair of sand resistant boots. "L-Let's hope he did."
[22:58] <13@Kane> I see. Then he's dead.
[22:58] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Or he left before us.
09[22:58] <13@Jennifer> "...Kane, the device wasn't there."
09[22:58] <13@Jennifer> "Exactly."
[22:58] <13@DeathStar> <X> OR it was destroyed.
[22:58] <13@Kit> <Chii> I'd rather think he was smart enough to flee when it got tough.
[22:58] <13@Ariel> Raquel> "...Lemon... what's your range with those things...?"
09[22:58] <13@Jennifer> "I'm gonna stick to hope for now thanks..."
[22:58] <13@Kane> Then she would be able to sync up with him now. Can you? 6He asks Lemon.
[22:59] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> I can synch with any of our devices no matter the range. 6* She looks at Kane. "I can only do it when we're leaving. We don't have the crystal yet for this reality."
09[22:59] <13@Jennifer> "We need to find shelter or something..."
[22:59] <13@Kane> Hmm. Then let's hope he is here somewhere.
[23:00] <13@Kit> <Chii> ...I can't see anything. But sand. ...And more sand.
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Lemon> There is also the fact if he left without synching with us, he went to another reality.
09[23:00] <13@Jennifer> "...Sticking to hope."
[23:00] <13@DeathStar> <Cheryl> Yeah. That's one problem if we don't stick together. We might never meet up again.
[23:01] <13@Kit> <Chii> He's reality hopped before. Let's just worry about ourselves for now.
15[23:01] * 13@Jennifer pulls herself up and dusts sand off her clothes, putting her hand over her eyes. "Standing in the middle of the desert isn't going to do us any good... I say we pick a direction and trek that way till we find something."
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> 6* Cheryl eyes the endless sand. "Yeah. Lets find a way out of the desert for now."
[23:01] <13@DeathStar> -END-
