[PRISON]

Terry hadn't been thinking to destroy the cages. He'd just thought he could hit the bars enough to scare off the clone or scare her into letting go. Which she still hadn't done.

Hearing one of the hunters point out that what Terry had inadvertently done was very much a huge ******** up, he called out in response, "Release wasn't the intention. But this way, we can better reach them to incapacitate the-"

And this was about the time when the clones all went limp. Terry dismissed his weapon to better support the girl who suddenly spoke in using. She, they? sounded like they were accusing him and the other girl of something.

"Break the cage? Yes, I know. That's how I'm able to carry you like this." The deadpan nature of his response might have been interpretted as sarcastic but he wasn't lying.

Still cradling the girl, Terry turned to the others. He remembered to activate the headset to give Mark a listen in as he asked, "Attack of the clones ended. What now?" in hopes the senior members had an idea of what was to be done now.

DISSECTION ROOM

The minute Kai fell to unconsciousness, the darkness ebbed with a strange lingering laughter as everything returned as it should-

- With the exception of the one trainee beaten by another's weapon.

It was only too obvious now what the shadows were, as where they stood was where exactly where the remaining Hunters in the room stood.

ORCHARD

The larva had mostly been beat back, most of them dissolving into fine black mist - into Fear.

Yet still a few remained.

Those few began to shrivel, wither away, and then slowly, crack open-

- As from the carcasses erupted giant ten-foot moths. Instead of a proboscis they had strange long filaments that moved all directions, erupting from two layers of razor sharp, triangular teeth.

It just happened that Tempest was the one closest to the new arrivals as one of them descended upon her and plucked her into the air.


OOC
TEMPEST CAN BE FREED IF ANYONE CAN DAMAGE THE MOTH'S WINGS. Due to reduced accuracy from it flying, you must roll 1d6 and score a 1 or 6. Only then can you use your attacking dice to shoot it down.

PRISON

"You did this," the prisoners were standing all very still now, "you did this- help me - nobody helps me - why - I don't deserve this."

They continued to repeat those phrases over and over, as the one that was freed from the cage shrieked and wrapped their vice-like grip around Lin.

TUNNELS

They could hear something - an even louder buzzing. This time however, they could not even see the swarm, there was no indication until they felt a p***k against their skin again and again and again-

- Where their skin was pricked it was beginning to swell and turn into an ugly welt. Where it hit anywhere close to their eye, it would induce temporary blindness.


OOC

Roll 2d4 to see how many bug stings your character endures (and the damage your character takes). If your character rolls an even number, they get stung CLOSE TO THE EYE causing temporary blindness in one eye. If your character rolls an even number AND the number is 8 they suffer from double blindness.

[ THE TUNNELS ] - Shu (idk where she is)

Broke into a new place, the yellow gas scattered but replaced by a familiar smell, too familiar to forget actually. There, she found Dwight. She wanted to sprint to him but the numbness was still in effect that she fell. Swiftly got on her feet, she finally reached him. "Mr. Dwight, we find you! We find you." She was all aflutter with a small hint of short relief. Noticed his coarse voice, she took out a water bottle -

- It was just a glance yet enough to make her drop it. There were bloods all over the wall as if a merciless slaughter had just taken place.

She couldn't avert, her eyes and her mind. What happened that day had deeply imprinted and whenever similar scenes occur, she began to re-live that last horrible moment. Normal missions won't have that amount of blood and most of the time she was fine that only a few discovered that. That was why the petite Death began to mumble "It's all my fault" between her lips, eyes out focus like that of puppet.

It wasn't the first time the beast had seen such abnormality from his partner. He was very pissed for no reasons.

Do you want him to die? It ringed hurfully but effectively within her mind. Of course she didn't want anyone to die but what could she do? If not she mentioned something in the front, if not they wanted to protect her, they possibly won't lose their lives. She had been blaming herself from then on and determined she deserved no one.

Shu felt like she was sevrely underdressed for a cruel winter when she was only trembled under the influence of her trauma. Her body refused to move an inch, stiffened. She had a bad time fighting against herself when those icy cold hands reached to support Dwight. "Can you hear me? Nod once if you can."

While taking her time for his response, she stared nervously at the figure laid on the floor and hope she didn't recognize them. Please don't be - she suddenly remembered there was another one they lost contact with.

The ceaseless whispers added a puissant effect, to reinforce her misery. Even still with her headset, it didn't muffle the foreboding growing strong in her heart. "Anyone can hear me? I-I find Mr. Dwight." She called on the headset.

[prison]

So in hindsite punching the clone in the face was a bad idea it seemed that for some reason they were not facing her and saying she did it. What the hell had she done other than punching her in the face. She took a deep breath and pushed the clone away, before looking to the other ones in the room. "I didn't do anything, just so you all know.."

She wasn't scared or yelling to plead innocence, that would be pointless even in the best of times, instead she was trying to find out what HAD done it. The one that still seemed agressive was the one that was attacking another person.

"Hmm, so I am being blamed for doing something, so I can assume it was someone that LOOKED like me?" She moved to help Lin, as well as she could at least, still uncertain why she was to blame. "I would LOVE to help you insane freaks but we don't know what you need!"

Grabbing the closest clone Kimberly started shaking it. "Speak something else... ugh a hint maybe?"

zoobey
As you said they are all chanting that Kimberly did this, as well as Joy who is not in this area, I am just curious if it is actually Joy and not someone else who is also being blamed.

THE TUNNELS

The whispering of thousand voices echoed behind him so he crawled faster. He couldn't see where he was going. The glowy bugs didn't seem to come this way, and soon he found out why... His hands touched something squishy on the floor. It took him by surprise since it felt warm and wet. And then the smell hit him -- It was disgusting and rancid, like a mix of old vomit, baby poo, and unwanted meat way past expiry date.

Immediately upon inhaling the scent, Sy involuntarily started to vomit on the spot. His eyes teared up from being in this room. When he stood up, he could feel both his feet sink into the warmth. Where the hell am I? he asked Ia telepathically, afraid something was waiting for him in the dark if he whispered out loud.

< Master, you may not see well in the dark, but I can tell you what I see. This room... Is made up of dead bodies. Chopped parts smooshed together. The sticky bit, well... semi wet blood and juices...? >

Sy gagged and vomited again. I need to get out of here! I can't see! He had no source of light, just two bottles of water in his pockets that were of no use to him at the moment. Like a blind mole, the boy started to feel around with his hands touching the grossness and vomiting after every few steps, hoping to find a way out. If you see a a way to escape let me know, he said to Ia, almost crying, as he dug his hands back into the wet and warm wall.

Oddly enough, Pokemon music began to blare through the headphones again, loud and dissonant. This continued for a good five minutes, until the hissing began again, then static combined with the music, then finally a voice, Mark's voice-

-"Get out of the caves and back to the portal. Abort mission. Abort mission The-"

- Static again. More Pokemon music. The sound of scuffling in the background through the headphones and then buzzing.


OOC

THE GREAT ESCAPE

- At ANY point during the RP your character may now try to escape back to Deus. If they do they are SAFE

- If your character is in the middle of a prompt they are free to stay and interact as long as they feel necessary

- If your character has been SPECIFICALLY captured/ accosted (not including Tunnel people, those insects are just a random encounter), they cannot leave until they have been freed. That means yes, if everyone leaves and abandons them they will be stuck there.

- If your character is ready to escape, read and respond to the RP post you were quoted for on this page and they are now ready to roll to escape.

gaia_crown [ ESCAPE MECHANICS ]

gaia_star [ PART 1: To escape your ZONE YOU ARE IN ], roll 1d4 to try to navigate through the mess and match the results to your character. If your character is KO'ed they need someone else to take them/ roll their dice for this part.

- If they KO DURING this phase, then they will need someone to carry them through the next phase

1) Your character sustains light damage as they escape. They take -5 damage (cannot go below 0 HP)
2) Your character is barraged by a swarm of insects as they try to escape. They take -10 damage (cannot go below 0 HP)
3) Your character is being chased by the largest scorpion they've ever seen and get stung badly in (pick a location). The venom spreads rapidly making them lose focus. They take -15 damage (cannot go below 0 HP)
4) Rocks fall on your character. It is terrible. They take -20 damage (cannot go below 0 HP)

gaia_star [ PART 2: THE PORTAL ] As your character exits the cave, they see that the sand is starting to sink, a giant mouth made entirely of razor sharp circular teeth has begun to take over the area, growing steadily wider and wider. You are free to try to warn other characters currently inside the cave.

-- They need to navigate across this mouth by supporting each other across. Each character needs 10 support given by OTHERS to cross. Roll your battle dice, the result rolled (ie if I roll 2d8 and get 5, 4 =9 - 6 = 3) is the SUPPORT you give to the other player. You can only support a character once per character, but you can support more than one character.

Ie: Steve can support John once, but Steve can also support Jim and Mary.

-- Players CAN stay to repeatedly support other people across until they are ready to cross too.

-- DIVISION SUPPORT BONUSES:
Death: If you are a Death Hunter, roll 1d6. If you roll odd you can just flat out escape yourself. (This cannot be applied to anyone else)
Life: If anyone is below 50% of their HP (round up) you can automatically support them for 2x your support value you roll.
Sun: The dice modifier for your support value is now -2 instead of -6 (ie: 2d6 - 2)
Moon: You may roll your defensive dice instead of your offensive ones for support. If you do, it is now 2d4 for trainees, 3d4 for intermediate, and 4d4 for full Hunter with NO modifier. You can only use this on two people max.
Mist: Roll 1d4 to see which ability you get. 1 = death, 2 = life, 3 = sun, 4 = moon. Then apply it accordingly.

Sy would land his hands into something strangely ridged and grooved.

It felt like teeth. Hundreds, and hundreds of human teeth sticking out from the flesh. The ground beneath him began to churn and gurgle, and slowly fill with an acid that immediately began to corrode his shoes and burn through his skin.


Frostypeaches
Your character can escape the room any time but has to take -5 damage from the acid - thankfully it only reaches his ankles before he leaves.

The Tunnels: Shu's Exit Area

It was a girl, young and pale and with a messy pool of long, black hair. The blood crawled toward her along the floor, thing strands of it flowing back into her many, many wounds.

"S....sister," Dwight managed to croak. And then, "Shu? Why are y-" and then he was coughing, violently.

"Save Dwight-" It was Mark's voice but it sounded like he had found another headset, the Pokemon music still playing from another source. He was whispering into the new headset, voice barely audible. "Save him, please."

[Prison]

Lin snatched her arm back as soon as it was released and backed away from the woman, who was now staring at one of the other people there and speaking in unison with the other women, in weird, accusing tones. It was, to be honest, starting to creep her out, in combination with the whispering, staticy voices that had no apparent source. "It looks like it's a moot point, anyway," she said to Terry.

She yelped when the released woman latched onto her, the grip painful in its intensity, and struggled against the hold, attempting to shove her off. "What the -- let go of me -- what are you talking about, we're trying to, ugh, help you -- "

Summon me, Anax demanded.

I can't with her clinging to me like this! And I might hit the other girl trying to help!

While Joy tried to lunge for the other hunter's legs, she was unable to reach them. It eventually became obvious that they had to shoot the thing down. Joy looked at her shovel, then back up at the moth. Yeah, this was going to be tricky.

Sy felt something solid with his hands. like chipped bones. Touching the hard objects some more in the squishy flesh bits, he realised they were teeth... lots and lots of teeth. What is wrong with this place!? He had no time to investigate as a strange noise bubbled through to the surface.

'ssssssssss'

The boy ran across the room in the dark and felt his shoes disintegrate and disappear as acid ate through it and started to work on his flesh. It hurt a lot, and, naturally, he screamed out in pain. Nothing went right after he had jumped through the portal for this mission. He saw nobody and found nobody.

Sy's current HP: 34 - 5 = 29 / ********," is all he could say as the pain intensified and he vomited again. The acid level already started to slowly reach up to his ankles..
