.....s**t
Damien kept his gun lowered, keeping away from the main group incase he needed to start firing at the...thing that jad just appeared. But if Liam had told them not to provoke her, this was not good. A hole team of hunters, and they couldn't attack one creature. This meant she had to be one strong a** b***h. And she looked it to, the malice that oozed of her being sent shivers down his spine.
Then Ferdinand appeared on the scene. He waited to hear what the sun leader would say, then narrowed his eyes when he asked them to fall back. He didn't like what he was hearing, nor did he particularly want to move out when everyone was still here. But it was a order, and he would obey it
He already knew what happened when you didn't obey orders.
Still, even as the air filled with the mocking laugher of monsters, he would do his best to stay. Just long enough to pride cover and help his fellow team memebrs retreat.

It was a laughable arrangement that War was suggesting, and Jonathan was fully aware that he wasn't the only one who thought so. Even without speaking, Ferdinand's actions told him that the rougher man agreed with the amount of bullshit he felt was being spouted. Because the level of bullshit was just as legendary as the woman who spoke it - over 9000. His eyes passed over the walls as the legions of War began to draw from some unknown darkness, echoing the sentiments of their leader, ready to head her desires.
The pair of weapons in John's hands were less fierce in appearance than Ferdinand's Albatross was, but Ieyasu hadn't pulled the man through that far for no reason - the jutte, made to break blades and leave horrible bruises from force, and in John's hands they were much more painful - ruptures, broken bones - he'd turn a defensive object into something much worse. They were an item of death in his hands in a way that even if they passed on to another set of hands, they would never have the force of his strong arms backing them up again.
John jerked his head off in the direction of the exit, making a moment of eye contact with the Death Lead, then looking back towards War, a sort of pitying grin pulling at the muscles on his face.
He'd kneel when he only had knees to stand on, still he passed a look over the hunters who had assembled to the center of the Labyrinth, his stern stare as it passed over the hunters gathered echoing what it was that Ferdinand had already demanded of all of them and what he'd already requested of the Death Lead with his silent looks.

She felt the shudder of fear cross her back, claw up her spine. Aki had always been a girl of instinct. She attacked when she felt the need to attack, didn't think about anything else. Nico followed through, kept monsters from clawing through her exposed back. But for the first time, Aki's first instinct was not to fight, but to back away and approach with caution. She was trained to attack. Her hand tightened around Nien's hilt.
As if sensing her intentions, Nien said, Caution. Be careful Aki. No rash decisions. Liam held up his hand, enough to say that they should stand down.
Aki could not let go of the hilt, it went against everything she was taught. There was enough room to maneuver. From here she could slash the Horseman straight across the back, of course given that she didn't block (but the girl never considered possibilities for such things), but it was a good idea. A good idea, everyone was focused, not moving. A surprise attack. Followed by a burst of fi--
Stand down! Don't move, there's no way you can take her on. I'd be surprised if there was anyone in the room that could scratch the Horseman of War.
She was vaguely aware of the static of the headsets, Flair's worried questions, but Aki had forgotten about it. Her attention instead focused on the menace before them all. Even the commands of her leader didn't seem to register. She felt fear, felt it crawl across her skin, sink deeper into her bones and Aki felt frozen.
Aki! Aki, snap out of it girl. We need to go, retreat. GO. Your pride can suffer later, but there will be /no/ pride for us to worry about if you don't get out now.
Instinctively, her hand reached up to touch the pendant at her neck.

Trap?
Oh, s**t.
Aaron attempted to shush Rina--who was chattering excitedly (of all things) in his head--in an attempt to find out just what the hell was going on. He had heard Liam's voice over the headset, and then his voice had been followed by an unfamiliar one. At least, as much as he tried to place the voice, he found that it didn't fit with any of his fellow Hunters. None that he was acquainted with.
...Which...wasn't many...but...
A hostile?! The young man flinched at Em's words, but before he could demand more details on what was going on, Ferdinand's voice suddenly crackled from the headset. An order to fall back.
Aaron was generally not one to listen to others...but this was the division head, and a man who he admired. Reluctantly--and slowly, very, very slowly--he grabbed his pendant and left with the others who had chosen to obey.

..Well, s**t, maybe they didn't have this. Em's eyes widened to saucers as she looked up, and up, and up, at all the very many new friends they were about to make. Suddenly, this wasn't so much a fight, as it was a race. To get the hell out. EVERYONE ON HEADSETS We're outnumbered, listen to Liam. Everybody make your exit, right now please! She couldn't turn her back on the sight of War, but she backed up into Isaac, Marsh, Cecil, and everyone she knew was still standing there. "Guys, please grab your pendants and go. Like, right now?"

Marsh clenched his teeth, staring at the division heads as they took their stand. He wanted to stay, to help, to finish this - but orders were orders, and this was only one Horseman. One Horseman, and her clan, and where were the others?
Miyako hissed and writhed in his mind, demanding blood.
Marsh swallowed hard, reached up to grip his pendant, and followed orders.

Dave had listened to orders all his life and it had kept him alive. He wasn't about to ignore them now, not when he was uselessly staring at a dead end and might actually be useful elsewhere. He hunted out the pendant with all due haste - quite a feat given pockets and only one functional hand.
Once he had it, he left, terrified with what might await him out there.

No.
They were not going to play this game on him. Liam had seen it time and time before, Hunters who could have made it, Hunters who had potential who decided this was the only path left.
"This isn't a choice you can just make." The Death Hunter lashed back, though his voice never rose even a decibel higher. "All Hunters, pull back now. Meet at portal rendezvous point and await further orders from division assistants."
The Death leader waited until every single one of them did so: it did not take long, he even nodded to Velda and Henry, letting the taller figure escort the Life division leader away. And then, he summoned his weapon as well, facing both Ferdinand and John. "We will stand and fight together."
ALL HUNTERS ALL HUNTERS including ASSISTANTS have been REQUESTED TO LEAVE THE LABYRINTH. RP your EXIT posts (using your pendant), as you are now HERE (please read the GM post and react accordingly, this is post the other 2 figures leaving, but the ??? boss is still there)

He'd waited long enough. A part of him wanted to say and help his leader, but orders were orders. As he watched people blip out of existance, he finally found what he was looking for.
Go you pup, GO! snarled his weapon. He didn't need to be told twice.
Wolf clutched the pendant, and vanished from sight.

Lowe listened to Em's voice, though his eyes were currently set on the women who stared down at him in the same manner he stared down at a trashcan, or a hamburger. He was prime for ripping apart, devouring piece by piece, and his grip on Afzal tightened. He wanted to kill them all, to have Afzal dig himself into their bodies and scatter their blood and flesh on the ground.
Lowe wanted revenge, but the wound in his shoulder prevented him from doing that, and instead he grabbed his pendant.
He would have his revenge one way or another.

Billie didn't like the idea of leaving them but she knew better than to argue. As soon as the walls started to crawl, hands grasping and pulling themselves free, the moon hunter darted concerned eyes towards Warden. "Falling back." Her tone was obedient, militaristic. Dekina's grunts indicated a want for fighting but Billie wasn't going to bend to the will of her weapon. She reached up and clasped her pendant. [EXIT]

"Damn it... this must be pretty bad." Miriam sighed, tightening her hold on Verdandi while digging around in her pocket for the pendant.
He said to leave, so lets get the hell out of here. And for Verdandi to say something like that was a rare occasion indeed. The weapon loved a good fight and often whined about being stuck with a lab rat, but the truth was neither of them would have had it any other way. And hearing her say that just increased the feeling of dread in Miri's stomach.
"Lets get going then... who knows what's waiting on the other side. Sure hope the others are better off." And with a little sigh and squeeze of her pendant, they were off.

She wasn't the type to disobey orders, and Flair wasn't going to start now. Glare seemed disappointed, but he didn't dare argue against the leaders, especially when he had an inkling of what was in the Labyrinth. For the love of Jack hurry up!
She reached up to grab her pendant, but before she did she briefly spoke into the headset. Flair knew Aki. She knew what the girl was contemplating.Minsuil Headset: I know what you're thinking. I'm not stupid, but go, now.

He didn't even wait.
Warden grabbed Billie's wrist one last time, gave Titania a warning look, and then reached up and closed his fingers around the pendant.
