"Great... Just great..." Marie said, still griping a little as she tried to pry Noel free of the creature's tentacles, someone had to do something about it, right?​
Well that was odd. Especially considering Bolverk doesn't actually fire rounds. It was more of a dimensional collapse in a line with the barrel of the gun that created an Ars Magus explosion there, but either way it seemed that shot didn't work. And the other one was dodged.

Before she could move, the dogtopus thing attacked her. Great.

"Ew! Let go of me!"

That was pretty gross. What kind of horrible animal was this thing?

Noel tried to point her guns towards the creature again, and fire is she could get them trained on it.

@york @Doctor Smartass @Hospes

When Marie tried to pry Noel free, the mutated wolf/octopus thing squeezed her tighter, obviously aggravated by the attempt. As this happened, another tentacle launched at Marie, attempting to smack her upside the head!

Noel's shot missed it's intended target spot, due to the way she was being waved around by the creature, but she did hit one of it's tentacles.. And the creature roared in pain. It looked like they might've found a weak spot!

..... Well, he may as well do something. Anything to assist them.

Which consisted of leading the puppy away to a safeplace, setting it in a patch of brush and patting its head.

*Muffled exclamations of affection!*

Once he was sure of it, he unslung his flamethrower and came skipping out of the woods, head cocked to the side as he turned his flamethrower in the direction of the creature as it roared to life, engulfing it in purging flames.

Burn, baby BURN!

Although on several occasions Isara had told Riley to stay back, she didn't entirely do so. The preteen stayed close to Isara, even when she was helping to treat the girl. "Are you really sure she'll be all right?" Riley asked, her arms and hands shaky as she looked upon this scene. She couldn't look long though. This nightmare-like setting was hard for Riley to observe. She tried to keep her blue eyes one the ground for as long as possible, while imagining that her parents were there telling her everything would be okay. She sure wished it would be.

Prognosis: Not okay!

For the most part, Riley's emotions had sorted out their issues with each other. Now, they only wished they could sort out their issues with Riley. At the moment, Sadness, Fear, and Disgust were taking turns at the controls while Joy tried to convince Anger to quit pressing a button on Riley's control panel.

"Stop that! Continuing to press the button isn't going to make it stop beeping!"

"Well I'm tired of hearing it!" Anger snapped at Joy, shaking his head.

Making an annoying buzzing sound, a button on Riley's console continued to beep, playing a warning.

WARNING: LOW FUEL. PLEASE INTAKE FOOD, WATER, OR REST. REPETE: LOW FUEL.

Joy frowned. "Ugh, I know Riley is hungry, but there isn't anything we can do about it when she's in constant danger."

What next? Joy really hoped they would get out of this bad situation soon or Riley would end up crashing...

@The Silver Paladin @Hospes @Anybody who is around XD​
"Riley, I promise, everything will be ok. We have a medicine called Ragnaid, it can heal even the worst wounds." Welkin said.

Isara nodded. "I really hope so." The girl softly said. She wasn't quite sure herself. Isara continued pressing bandages, and applying Ragnaid.


The boy seemed to be annoyed with the way he was being bossed around. "You really are stupid, aren't you?" he muttered, shaking his head and crossing his arms. "There's nowhere to run. Infiltrators or not, we're still trapped here," he explained, shaking his head, causing his black curly hair to bounce slightly.

On the other hand, the dazed girl on the ground subconsciously squeezed Isara's hand right back. She still was in too much pain to talk, it appeared.


The blonde boy's nostrils flared in annoyance, and he clearly was, as Jojo said, done with Jojo's shit. "You really don't have an off button, do you?" he practically snarled, trying for a punch to Jojo's ribs.

@Verite @The Silver Paladin @Klutzy Ninja Kitty
"Well, just sit down and shut up or something." The kid was really pissing Alicia off. Alicia sighed, and ran a hand through her hair. "I'm not going to tell you what to do." She loaded a clip into her rifle, and took aim at the boy attacking Jojo

Isara smiled at the girl again.

"Urk."

Noel grunted as it squeezed tighter, but at least her shot seemed to have an effect. She tried to twist her wrists again, trying to get its tentacles in line with her pistols.

Until some guy with a flamethrower popped up.

"P-please make sure you don't hit me with that!"

She wasn't sure how well he could aim, and being engulfed in fire wouldn't really be good.

Bingo! Though he unfortunately didn't get the satisfaction of hearing the boy recite that line, he still did what JoJo expected him to do! Ga ha ha, the trick was falling into place!

When the boy would go for Joseph, he would deftly evade, dashing to the side and performing a front kick, attempting to knock him away and give some space. And then that's when Joseph's quick plan came into fruition.

Metal was one of the two things that greatly conducted and could be greatly manipulated by Hamon, the other being liquid, though other material like wool and such can also come into play. As soon as Joseph would knock the kid back, should his attempt succeed, grenades would suddenly appear around the guy's feet and stuck to his clothes like magnets!

Bingo!

"Get outta town!" He exclaimed, and with that, used his Hamon to pull the pins off the grenades! Time for fireworks... Hopefully this was gonna be enough.

Regardless of how you went out, you happened to find yourself in a location that appeared to be some form of ruins. It's also clear that for some reason, Add wasn't present with them, despite being another deceased individual with them. Before they could try to figure out where they were exactly and why they were here... they were attacked by... !

"Engarde! I bet you can't even beat me in a match!"

Well... that's random. Doesn't look like this guy's gonna back off either, especially when the cute little fighter ran up to slash at them with his sword.​

From the Renascence to the 21st century. From Colonial America to the multiverse. Assassins had been dealing death in greater numbers than the bloodied pages of the history books could contain. But when death came for them for in their final moments, they always went silently into its embrace, welcoming their old friend. But it had all changed with one man, Desmond Miles. He was the first to come back, and he had opened the flood gates. The doors of death were no longer sealed in this new world, worlds. The possibility were limitless.
But despite that, Connor had been certain this was the end, his ill fated plan to pass as his father and eliminate the main obstacle to peace had been finished. But here he was? In the infamous afterlife that Desmond always somehow managed to slip past. Like father, not like son apparently.


But, from the stories of Lisa, these afterlife promises always came with some sort of game to play. Some catch that said oh no you don't get it that easy. It looked as if fighting this strange rodent was going to be his price.

Meanwhile, while Connor mused about metaphysical problems, Cameron was running through her 120 second reboot cycle. When it finally ran its course, her eyes flickered open, an infinite line of items appearing and sorting themselves out on her hud.

Her Prime Directive remained unchanged. Protect John Connor. Eliminate the survivors to do so.
Humans are John's problem. John is John's problem.
Her head twitched slightly, the internal consistency of that logic seeming incomplete. Either way, The Son of Miles was a continued obstacle to John Connor's assured survival, being marked as an incredibly important member of the Templar Order.


She rose out of her position laying on the ground and swiftly marched over to where Connor stood, her hand quickly finding his throat, easily throttling the life out of him. Why she didn't simply snap his neck the real question. Maybe she wanted it to hurt, or her logic processor was simply malfunctioning again. It did that often enough.

Connor was used to dealing with Terminator strength at this point, or as close as you could ever get used to it. What he needed was a chance to use his M-82 Barrett .50 caliber sniper rifle with the specialized armor piercing rounds, hidden well in the trees, just like his chosen namesake. Unfortunately, he had left that in the future, just like most of his useful gear. Instead he worked with what he had, flicking his Hidden Blade out, rotating it in a smooth half circle, and jamming it into her elbow joint, twisting as hard as he could. The pressure around his throat eased just the slightest bit, allowing him to speak.

"Killing me is not your way back to him. He is." Connor nodded back to the rodent thing.

"You're a threat. You shouldn't be left alive. As long as you're out there John will always be in danger."


"Not yet. Not now. The war hasn't started. I can stop it all. I have to stop it." Connor was gasping for air. This was it. He needed her. She was the key.

Her hand around his throat slackened, then released entirely. His words made sense. There truly was no reason for him to jump back here if he wasn't here to stop the war. He'd already proven he didn't want to kill John Connor, and the only other reason to come back here was to assassinate Desmond Miles, something she cared nothing about. In fact, it might alter the flow of the timeline so that the worst disasters wouldn't come to pass.

She looked at him, and there was something different in her eye. A look of emotion that shouldn't have been in a cold hearted machine. That look was a wary trust.

"In war, sometimes enemies become allies, when they have to."

"We are the architects of our actions, and that we must live with their consequences, whether glorious or tragic."

"There Is No Fate But What We Make."

"Nothing is true, everything is permitted."

A silent understanding passed the two, and as one they attacked the strange creature, Cameron with her fierce, unending strength, and Connor with the blades that were his unwanted birthright, and the tomahawk that was symbolic of a freedom of a nation.

Obediently, the little weird wolf pup/octopus/spider thingy stayed behind the bush, tail still wagging. It also still had that derpy, adorable expression.. It didn't seem like the smartest little thing around, huh?

As for the flames being used against the wolftopus, they seemed to have little affect on the creature's main body.. But the creature raged when the flames hit it's tentacles. Luckily, Pyro hit the one holding Noel, causing her to fall forcefully to the ground.. But in the process, it threw off her shots at the beast. Oops.

Marie retaliated quickly, raising the front end of her vacuum once more, this time to swat the tentacle coming at her away, she put alot of force into the blow... Hoping to damage the creature somehow, if that bullet did, perhaps her own strike could as well.

"Uwaahhh! Er... forget what I just said! 'Kay bye!!" Guess he was nopeing the hell out of there, picking up his things and high-tailing out of the forest ruins. Well, that was easy. Before they could even comprehend on where they were... the entire environment changed around them, turning to one that seemed out of this world... quite literally per say.

Clearly this wasn't just some random spot in space, but one could feel a distortion in time due to this certain location. thankfully, they weren't alone, in both cases that their company wasn't hostile and that one of the persons present was one they probably know from the others.

"... about time you've cleared your end of the trial. I bet you got the small fry to begin with," Add happened to be present here, sitting back on one of the cubes and looking over a holographic panel with some sort of data for... something? Judging from what he said, it could be assumed that he was probably going through the same process that they were going through, which could be taken as fighting different enemies.

"It was more of a test for them, a practice round to be exact. As you are familiar with this trial quite heavily, Add, these people haven't before. However, I now know on how to go about these... trials."

The other individual happened to speak up, seeming to hush Add. Apparently these two knew each other... and how so, it didn't really matter in this case.

"It's sudden that I have these fragments of the deceased to watch over, but if that's going to be the case, I suppose a game to be played shall suffice. The games should be wonderfully easy to wrap your head around... but if not, then... I hope you can survive with the best of your abilities. As for who I am and how I know Add, most of it isn't important for this, but I go by the name Glave. I'm otherwise known as the administrator of this realm, which has been called Henir's Time and Space dimension. All I can reassure you with is that I can distort time and send you all back as if death never approached your doorstep... well, if you complete certain objectives in my game and/or amuse me in any way during the game. Whatever works with your preferences. Oh... and I almost forgot due to the short time-frame I have here, but before that, is there any questions that I must answer to sugarcoat your worries, hm?"

Well, if they had any curiosities, now was the time to ask Glave anything that was on their minds before he would start up the "game" he wanted to play.

Hooray, freedom! Noel scrambled to face the creature once more.

"Everyone! Please attack its tentacles! That's where it appears to be weak!"

As she said this, she fired a couple of rounds at its tentacles.

The T-800 mechanically raised is shotgun at the Octo-beast. 'My detailed analysis of the Genetic Mutate suggests that current target could be a genetic relation to the smaller creature.'
The shotgun fired relentlessly, the Terminator's face an unmoving frown. 'Possibly relevant.'

John, meanwhile, had decided to flee the battle. Perhaps the Terminator would look for him? But right now, he didn't care. He didn't care about that stupid robot, or those people who were torn apart, or the stupid reason they were here. It was wrong. It was unfair. But then again, it always was.

'Do any of you even know where we're going?'
As far as he was concerned, the T-800 could rust for all he cared. His priority was staying alive. And making sure that Alicia and Riley survived too.

Loading his pistols, a wide grin appeared along Eric's face. "Now this is what I'm used to. On your toes pansycakes, and do what the blue girl says!" Finally, another Dauntless he could compete against; made a change from the rest of the stiffs he had to put up with. Within seconds Eric filled the creature's tenticles with a flurry of rounds

Mid-Round Update:

Joseph's little trick seemed to work; the blonde boy fell slightly forward when Joseph dodged, due to how much he had put behind his punch. From there, Joseph easily landed the kick on the blonde, knocking him back and distracting him just long enough for Jojo's plan to come into action. The blonde growled in aggravation, trying to take another swing at Joseph. "You little..-- Gah!" As the boy swung, he found his feet were stuck together, causing him to fall over. From there, he struggled to get up.. And found himself blown sky-high by Joseph's grenades, instead!

Wow, that guy blasted off like Team Rocket, huh?

In the distance, a canon could be heard. Odd.. As for the two others that Alicia, Joseph, Isara, and Welkin had stumbled upon.. Well, the girl seemed to slowly but surely be starting to perk up, in any case. The other boy, though, that had seemed to be buddies with the blonde... Actually seemed rather indifferent about the defeat of his presumable 'friend'. Instead, he leaned against one of the many trees, quirking a brow at the group. "Huh. Well.. Serves him right, I guess."

Meanwhile, in the other group, it seemed that the combined efforts of Noel, Marie, and Pyro's seemed to finally bear fruit. The wolftopus managed to grab and rip apart Regina Mills, killing her rather slowly. But before the wolftopus-thing even had time to figure out that the group had discovered it's weakness, it found itself bombarded with attacks on it's weak points- it's tentacles -, causing it to howl in pain. With it's tentacles wrecked by the constant barrage of attacks, the creatures was felled, bleeding out where it had stood.

But, that didn't seem to be the end of it.. In the midst of the chaos, it seemed that another fatality had struck... Someone had managed to kill The Rookie!

Not too far from one of the groups laid the mangled and unmoving body of The Rookie. His body was almost unrecognizable; it looked almost as though one of the likely many mutant beasts around had roughed him up a good bit, and chewed on him with their teeth... Not too far from here, another corpse could be found: That of Anna, who appeared to have been eaten alive by.. Something. But judging by the teeth marks.. This was a human 'something'.

Regardless, it looked like the groups needed to vote again. They could try to investigate The Rookie closer, try to explore further, or simply sit and chat.. Because wasn't this just the perfect time for that?

Stage ???: Henir's Time and Space - Ruben's Rest Area

Before Desmond, Connor, or Cameron could ask any questions to Glave, the administrator of this distorted dimension saw that his gemstome that he was holding in his hand began to give off an eerie glow. A hoarse chuckle could be heard coming from him, his mask hiding the possible smirk he had on his face right about now.

"So things shouldn't be empty around here... turns out that more have passed on..." Glave spoke to clarify on why this gemstone was giving off that glow to those that were present in the afterlife. Tossing the blue gemstone into the air, it broke apart almost instantly, and in return, three new forms of light were formed from this.

The newly deceased, the Rookie, Regina, and Anna were brought to this afterlife.

"What a variety we have gathered here, and since I've already explained quite a lot about this place to those that were already here moments ago, I'll keep simple and short for you newcomers. This location is known as Henir's Time and Space realm. Your reason for being here... well, I come across your time fragments, and if you achieve a goal in a game I'll have you all play, I can work things out where I can send you back alive and sound. In other words, resurrection. As for what the game is going to be... you'll figure it out as soon as you get to the next set of stages. I wouldn't want to be a killjoy and spoil the surprise for you."

A gruff clearing of someone's throat could be heard as a certain Esper spoke up in response to Glave.

ff971cf217522eec3ffa79b265d5f7f8-d8jlycr.png


"You may be stronger than me due to your assistance to my ascend in power... but I know what kind of games you have in store. I can spoil the fun for you if I felt like it. Now if you excuse me, I'll be reading up on some data until you decide to start the next set of trials," Add didn't seem so amused by Glave's apparent enjoyment out of this, which was saying something considering that it's usually Add pulling the fun out of people's misfortunes.

"In time, Add, you'll achieve what I have here. For now, I suppose you wouldn't mind being a part of this game?" Glave laughed a bit at how Add responded to him, and saw that Add didn't seem to care if he was thrown into this dungeon run.

"Well, I do have to set up the next set of places for all of you to go through. Feel free speak to me or my past apprentice Add, I can multitask with no problem and some of you might know Add from this... other collective world. Or, if you'd like... there is enough for everyone to take a weapon set in the case that your own prowess isn't enough for what I have in store for all of you. Who knows which of those would give you in terms of abilities? Maybe you'll be able to bring those new abilities with you when you're eventually resurrected. Kehehehehee..."

With the information relayed to everyone, Glave would sit down on one of the larger gemstones that were present, going through different time fragments to set up the game they'll all have to play. The Diabolic Esper seemed quite invested in the data he was looking through on his holographic panels, but for once, he didn't seem that full on his hands. They could either speak to Glave or Add. In addition, there was a little section of the rest area that had a set of different collective items there. They were free to go there and see what kind of powers were available there from what Glave had told them. It was all they could do while they waited, from the looks of it all.​

Mid-Round Update:

Joseph's little trick seemed to work; the blonde boy fell slightly forward when Joseph dodged, due to how much he had put behind his punch. From there, Joseph easily landed the kick on the blonde, knocking him back and distracting him just long enough for Jojo's plan to come into action. The blonde growled in aggravation, trying to take another swing at Joseph. "You little..-- Gah!" As the boy swung, he found his feet were stuck together, causing him to fall over. From there, he struggled to get up.. And found himself blown sky-high by Joseph's grenades, instead!

Wow, that guy blasted off like Team Rocket, huh?

In the distance, a canon could be heard. Odd.. As for the two others that Alicia, Joseph, Isara, and Welkin had stumbled upon.. Well, the girl seemed to slowly but surely be starting to perk up, in any case. The other boy, though, that had seemed to be buddies with the blonde... Actually seemed rather indifferent about the defeat of his presumable 'friend'. Instead, he leaned against one of the many trees, quirking a brow at the group. "Huh. Well.. Serves him right, I guess."

Meanwhile, in the other group, it seemed that the combined efforts of Noel, Marie, and Pyro's seemed to finally bear fruit. The wolftopus managed to grab and rip apart Regina Mills, killing her rather slowly. But before the wolftopus-thing even had time to figure out that the group had discovered it's weakness, it found itself bombarded with attacks on it's weak points- it's tentacles -, causing it to howl in pain. With it's tentacles wrecked by the constant barrage of attacks, the creatures was felled, bleeding out where it had stood.

But, that didn't seem to be the end of it.. In the midst of the chaos, it seemed that another fatality had struck... Someone had managed to kill The Rookie!

Not too far from one of the groups laid the mangled and unmoving body of The Rookie. His body was almost unrecognizable; it looked almost as though one of the likely many mutant beasts around had roughed him up a good bit, and chewed on him with their teeth... Not too far from here, another corpse could be found: That of Anna, who appeared to have been eaten alive by.. Something. But judging by the teeth marks.. This was a human 'something'.

Regardless, it looked like the groups needed to vote again. They could try to investigate The Rookie closer, try to explore further, or simply sit and chat.. Because wasn't this just the perfect time for that?

Squigly blinked as another died, a disturbed frown on this face.

"...perhaps we should start to take this seriously."

"...agreed"

The two shared a nod and then went to investigate the body.

@Jeremi @TheSpringwoodSlasher @Hospes
 
The T-800 stared down at the corpse blankly. 'Further investigation would be logical.' He tilted his sunglasses down as his scanners analysed the body with his scanners.
'His silent nature would make prior communication difficult. It would be easy to terminate him, but still illogical.'

Penny had been in a daze for a good while, like she had been walking around in sleep mode with no real reaction coming from her. Then suddenly...

"I'm awake!" She looked around like she just got woken up. "Uh hehehe...sorry." At the news of another grizzly murder she too would follow Squigly to inspect the body. "Oh this is horrible." Secretly her own scanners would inspect the body and see if there was something the naked eye couldn't see.

Further investigation of the body seemed to reveal a little more helpful findings. While the body had seemingly been torn up by one of the mutated creatures around, it seemed that the COD had been much simpler.. There was a single stab wound in The Rookie's back that had been fatal. It looked like the body being torn up must've been some sort of attempt at covering the wound.

A closer look at the wound revealed something more... It looked awfully like the wound had been inflicted Krauser's knife.

Joseph just picked his ear while everyone else talked about how gruesome the murders were or something. Following everyone else in choosing to investigate The Rookie, he grunted lightly and crossed his arms.

"I knew there was something fishy about that guy! Looked like a Nazi to me with that weird sciencey outfit! And I know Nazis!" He exclaimed, looking through and noting the many things to observe there. Was that Krauser's knife? It seemed like the kind of weapon that would be distinctive enough to not be confused for many other weapons, and to be fair, that guy was a major grouch, but... could that guy really have been the murderer of this soldier?

"Hmm... I wonder if there's anything else... I guess we should explore further if not. Gah... this place is creepy though! I'm not going alone! Who's with me?"
