Welcome to Gaia! ::

Eracs wasn't having fun. He just got clipped by one of the falling walls. Running out into the open didn't seem good, nor was hiding under these walls. As an attempt to attack he chucked another piece of debris at the metal thing and hoped it would hit this time.

He looked at his friends. "Well getting it stuck under the wall might be a good idea! Make it easier to hit..."

"Or, wait, do you guys think this maze leads some place? What it we try solving it?"

((hp: 10-3 = 7
attack: miss))

Draven didn't need much prodding. He only waited around for confirmation on his idea this time because the last time he tried something without mentioning it to others, he lost his string of lights in a utterly fail move.

"Alright. I will try to distract it. Even if I can't get it stuck...maybe you will have time to topple another wall-" He stopped short. Well, Eracs idea hadn't even crossed his mind. "I think, I think that is a great idea, Eracs, though we still need past the bot."

There were five of them...how many did they need to stop the walls falling? If Draven runs a diversion (and tries to trap the bot) and Eracs works on choosing a path for solving the maze (he had a good sense of direction having found the workshop and all) would the others be able to topple a wall? Draven figured they could, indeed.

"Alright. No matter what we do, we will have to get past that thing." He gestured towards the bot. "I will try to distract and trap it...If nothing else, maybe we can get past it?" He was grinning like a mad man when he turned with a bounce, ready to dart off towards the bot. He would later question why he thought this was a good idea. He would wonder why he thought it was fun. He would wonder why he wanted to run out there and be bait, especially when he had no control over his shifting. (This would be so much easier in bird form.)

For now, however, the plan was to run straight for the bot. He was hoping to run past it and dart between some bits of tumbling wall, hopefully trapping the bot while he escaped. He was confident he could dodge the walls, flying had honed his skills in telling the distance of objects relative to himself. The giant bot was the main variable; being bait would only work if the darn thing would follow him.

((edited just a tiny, tiny bit))

Wonderful! He and the new demon girl had come up with a plan. Now if it could work, oh how exciting this all was!

"So, trap it and try to find if there is something at the end of this maze thing?" Eracs pondered, he wasn't very strong but he could help wall moving.

Much of the area's walls had fallen and some where leaning. Maybe if they could tip one of the slightly leaning walls the other way? "Guys, think the wall piece over there would work? Draven, you can get it to chase you and we can try to push the wall the other way on top of it. Solve the maze after?

((PACH, I still love you.
note to self, hp = 7, take one of two pills after next hit))

Jamais watched from her position of keeping the wall up. Her tail flicking, "If that doesn't work you can try swearing at it." She called to Draven. Since that seemed to bring the things attention to her instead of whatever it was doing before hand.

She nodded at Eracs, "We can try it. if there was a way to wedge it between two walls then we try to solve the maze that might also help." Her tail flickered as she watched, "Which if the walls keep falling we could probably walk over them to find whatever is at the end if it isn't crushed."

The walls continue to fall. They're not really fast, however, so pushing them was a very real possibility. As for trying to distract the scout... he's in a steel tank, practically. Even the rock that cracked his windshield didn't cause him to jump.

However, the scout is also too smart to actually fall for letting the kids push a wall on him, backing up away from them instead.

Perhaps there is another option for that?

Though on the plus side, at least he didn't attack......

HP:71

Well... that didn't work! "Um, guys, any guesses as to how to stop this thing? I vote for running..."

The scarecrow sighed. What was there to do? "You guys this this thing can actually follow through the maze? Or over the fallen parts, maybe it can't get through the debris that well..." Unless it could fly but he wasn't going to say that.

Trying to damage it at least Eracs tried to toss another piece of wall at it.

((HP: 7, lol
attack: 2 damage!))

Plan 1 fail. Not too surprising really, but he had hoped that it might have had a little chance. But no, the robot was smarter than that. He thought for a minute, trying to come up with a new plan.

"Do you guys think that we might be able to reason with it? It hasn't actually tried to attack us directly, so maybe it isn't interested in that."

They weren't really having much luck attacking it, none of them seemed to be all that aggressive or even fighters, and so far that wasn't really working. Maybe if they would have had more people, but there were only five of them. It just wasn't working.

He picked up a rock as well, chucking it at the robot. Perhaps that wouldn't be the best plan if they did decide to try to reason with it, but, they could deal with that when it came up.

((HP: 14hp))
((Attack: No damage ))
