Skip blinked. He had actually expected that Vixen would just blow the door up or something, but her idea made sense too... "Uh... okay. I'll take 912, you take 910, and we'll work in that direction until we meet up again." Skip paused. He was still really anxious. "But... what if Ellisent comes back before we finish looking through all the rooms? Maybe would should try opening this door?" He looked at Vixen, waiting for a response.

[I'm totally plagarizing from one of my earlier posts...but it gets the point across...]
She was expecting huge waves of color, intense speeds, and scary, black wormholes threatening to end her very existence.
Well, she got them, alright. Withing milliseconds, she was sucked across a vortex of swirling colors and sounds - flying through the air at breakneck speeds. It was a wild ride, one that she would never forget... Clutching to Brian's back, she managed to see a large black hole...they were headed right towards it, through the plethora of sensory information and into the darkness...
Was she in space? The void seemed to be endless, but she was on a definite path through the technicolor-bled walls of this passagel...and the inevitable end grew even nearer...what, she wondered, lie beyond it...?
It did not matter...The closer she got to the void, the faster she moved. Her skin seemed to peel off of her bones as her body rocketed toward the rift. And, finally, with crushing force, she -
...was in an elevator shaft. On top of an elevator. Oh God, she felt nauseous...

Hey! It worked! Woot! Oddly enough, this skill took up no MP...probably because of its massive impracticality...or maybe he was warping to a time when his MP would be replenished? Whatever...his Magicka essence was definitely full, he could feel it.
Looking around, he decided not to bother the girl...she didn't look too great...he had dealt with this before, so he was fine...
Woah! s**t! A body lay panting on the elevator with them...a mangled mess of fur, claws and chainmail, the little guy seemed to have gone through a lot...they were pretty high up in the dark chamber, and definitely migrated from their original position. Damn.
He decided not to wake the little guy. But, uh, he wanted to talk to Kali...because, well, the dude could be a friend...maybe? Brushing his hair aside and still staring at the beast, he asked politely, "Uh...is he dead?"

Unfortunately, right about then inside Spaz's hunger-induced dreams he was imagining himself sitting down to Thanksgiving dinner (or maybe it was Chinese Dragon Boat Festival dinner, the Garreth family had some weird holiday traditions) and devouring an entire leg of lamb. He abruptly twitched in his sleep and snapped his jaws, coming within an inch of taking a chunk out of the young man's ankle.
"Oh baby... pass the butter..." Spaz mumbled in his sleep.

Kali didn't answer at first, her hand firmly clamped over her mouth. SHe felt like her non-existant food that really wasn't in her stomache was planning on coming up any second. Yeah, great plan. Barf on the guy who brought you here. Well he HAD made her nauseous... But she wasn't going to. When she was positive she wouldn't hurl she looked down at the...well what the hell was he? She jumped when he snapped at Brian's ankle and took a step back.
"Uh...I think he's sleeping." She said, staring confusedly. She had never seen anything like him in her natural life! Of course, she also hadn't traveled through time before either, so hey, there's a first time for everything.

He knelt down, facing the unconscious man...and froze. What if he was an enemy? What if he had mad cow disease!? But, on the other hand...he could be a strong ally....oh God, what should he do!?
"Uh...Kali...what do I, uh...okay! Here's a test of wits for you. What would you do in this situation? Answer correctly, and I'll put in a good word back at SSM!"
Yes. Nice one.

Mmm, well, yes, the thought of running into Ellisent alone was not exactly what she would call thrilling. Yet, if Ellisent found them together, well, that could be equally if not more disastrous. What a sticky situation this was turning out to be. She was really beginning to sicken of this place. The only good thing was that killing went unnoticed. Yes, that was the only grand thing she could think of at this point. She looked at Skip, assessing what strength and other helpful skills he had. Despite appearances, he was actually quite strong, and at times helpful. She did not mind having him around. And though if Ellisent did stumble upon their hidden, (or not so much), alliance, well, having him around sure did beat Ellisent ripping her intestines out with hardly a fight. So, she came to the conclusion that she really did not want to seperate at this time. She needed to learn to be intelligent in lieu of impulsive.
"Yes, seperating is probably not the wisest thing to do. Yet, we've got to find a way to open this door. Do you think there might be a key card around on this floor?"

"Hm, well seeing as I'm IN this situation." she said sarcastically. "and I have no idea what this situation is except for the simple fact of a sleeping and possibly dangerous creature in front of me, I'd say wake him up." She crouched down and poked him in the cheek. "wake up." So it probably wasn't the brightest thing to do but hey, he looked nice...well except for the fur and the claws and the teeth and the armor, but other than that he was like a cute little mutated puppy!
Did she mention mutated? Heavy emphasis there...this was one CREEPY puppy....

Mmm, mashed potatos, corn on the cob, gravy, stuffing, and so many assorted meats that- OW! Something was poking him!
"Nrrmph..." Spaz muttered, slowly levering himself to a sitting position and blinking his eyes sleepily. Now what was he doing? Oh yeah, having lunch. He looked around slowly, trying to figure out where all the food had gone. All he saw was rusted metal, cobwebs, and crumbling concrete, not exactly a tantalizing array of palitable tastyness. I mean, you'd have to marinate that girder for like a week before you could eat it. Wait a sec, what was going on? And why did his arms and back hurt?
He shook his head to clear it, and looked blearily up at the young man and the girl. Where the hell did they come from? Maybe he was still dreaming?
"Who's you's?" He asked, scratching his scalp beneath a mess of tangled hair and fighting the urge to yawn.

{...I'm just gonna...watch...}
"Uhh...I'm uhh..." She pondered for a moment, wondering if she should tell him. He seemed nice enough...Meh, why not?
"I'm Kali." She said, extending a hand to help him up. She didn't know wether or not Brian wanted to tell the guy who he was, so she kept her usually big mouth shut on that topic. "What's your name?" She smiled

Taking the girl--Kali's--hand carefully, Spaz squinted at it and turned it over this way and that, inspecting the limb as though he'd never seen a hand before. He then gently bent her fingers so that her index finger was pointing at him.
"Me 'Spaz'. Spuh-azzz." He sounded out, as though he were speaking to a toddler. "You," he turned the pointing finger on Kali, "you give Spaz food. Fooooood." This was accompanied by an eating gesture with his free hand. "Comprende?"

Skip studied the door again. "I haven't seen any key cards. And I don't see how it could be used to open this door..." He started to nervously wring his hands. He just wished he could get into that room... "Hey, Vixen... You're pretty strong... I mean, I know you don't have any thumbs or anything but, do you think you could try something. Um... you have claws, right? Er... but if its too much of a strain on you, then never mind..."

Kali stared down at her hand that had somehow been turned into a puppet and slapped his hand away with her free hand. "Don't do that." She said boredly. "I hate it when people talk to me like I'm two, I'm not that dumb." she sat down on the, well I'm going to call it a floor, and dug in the bag she constantly had with her. "I'm not sure if I have any left...I haven't eaten in a while either...But I don't know if it was because of those damn stalker raccoons or because I was saving it..."
