Rufus was slightly startled by the sudden voice. He turned to the source of it, seeing some person, on some sort of device. "....The 'ell?" Rufus's hands drifted away from each other. The twit gave bare any information for Rufus to think over. He barely shook his head, he looked back to William. "One tick." He walked away from William. "....Bloke did not even give a price range." Rufus said to himself.

Mocha heard the announcement.
"Stupid glasses-wearing liberal NERD!"
She stomped her feet.
"Such a girl would be vital to William's future dictatorship. Hmm. Maybe failing in aborting her WASN'T a bad thing."
She then portaled away, giggling.
Another announcement appeared.
"Hey, hey! This is Mocha, the blood mage! Just wantin' to let you know that I will give a hefty reward and a lifetime supply of food to whoever brings me the girl, dead. Bonus rewards if you happen to kill her--"
She put on a photo of Chryseis.
"--him--"
Salem.
"--and those two, Jack and Polly. My intentions? To rid the world of manipulators, and to make that living weapon a chained beast so that she won't destroy, you know, all the other worlds..."

[[They both ... left. Descriptive!]]
Wadsworth picked up Monoe bodily and flung her over his shoulder.
"Coolio. And I have the girly."
He cackled wildly and a large helicopter blade grew out of his head.
"And with that," Wadsworth said in a heavy French accent, "I bid you, Adieu."
The blades began to spin and he lifted off the ground into the rafters.
~*~
"No!" Ecchymos screamed, "She's mine!"
He ran at Wadsworth and grabbed his leg, which unbalanced him. Even with this added weight, he managed to reach the rafters. tendrils of Wadsworth wrapped around Monoe's arms and legs. Wadsworth deposited her on a rafter and turned, slashing at Ecchymos with Guinness' mutated arm.
Vhozd stood, looking up at the battle above him.

Rufus turned to listen to the other announcement. This one sounded slightly more reasonable, but then again, he had no idea who the hell these people were, which gave him less of a reason to either. He leaned against one of the walls in the room. He began to smoke his pipe, thinking over if either were worth the trouble.

Chryseis watched the chaos, and then tilted her head, turnign to Vhozd.
"Wait, does the lich guy want to eat her, too...?"
Monoe struggled in her bonds, and brokee one of them.
She then proceeded to push Wadsworth, hoping to push him out of the rafter.

Vhozd shook his head, and then tried to mime taking someone's body. Then he realized he couldn't (at all) and slumped his shoulders. Above him, Wadsworth slipped off the rafter and, held down by Ecchymos' weight, fell. However, he was able to catch the lip of a rafter with a third hand and detached the leg Ecchymos was holding onto. Ecchymos and the leg fell to the ground. Wadsworth grew a new lag and clambered up onto the rafter.
"Let's-a go!" he said to Monoe, and he picked her up before crawling into a vent.

Monoe began screaming, and Chryseis angrily went into the rafters.
Chryseis then thought of something, and disattached one of her prosthetic legs to throw at Wadsworth.

The announcement TV was taken over by Azrael; the real owner of the tournament.
"Your lack of participation is irritating.
Now, as my son-in-law and third daughter have said, there are a variety of different objectives surrounding That Girl. You've seen enough goddamn pictures of her. Now, as you might have noticed, there have been four motives surrounding her:
the wish to use her to destroy all of human existence [A];
the wish to harvest her immortal flesh for personal uses ;
the wish to assassinate her and use her as a weapon for perosnal gain [C];
the wish to protect her like a human being [D].
"Now, due to how unsuccessful the tier system has been, I'll give you guys Team Benefits. Yes... work with the leaders of said motives, and whatever you do with the monster of imagination, I do not care.
Whichever goal meets completion, they will be declared winner. Group B is not an operation for monetary reward, but completion on their part is still declared a partial success.
Completion is as follows;
Group A must destroy Group D, and, if possible, all other groups, using That Girl. Group B must bypass Group D and slough off the necessary flesh, with no need of any actual bloodshed; success is a ticket home. Group C has great monetary gain, but it requires killing the girl, which may in itself be quite difficult, as you have to bypass the wrath of the other 3 groups.
Group D requires killing or heavily incapacitating Group A, fending off Group B, convincing or incapacitating Group C, all while keeping her alive.
If all groups fail, you will all die.
You have twenty minutes to choose a group. If in need of further information, I'm in the Coffin Room."

"Twenty minutes!?" Heratik exclaimed loudly. He rushed out of the lab in a paniced state. He knew that he wasn't a very "popular" person, not very liked by the general public. ((but then again, we aren't supposed to like anyone in the tournament.)) Rushing to the coffin room, Heratik was going to speak with Azrael himself.

Azrael was resting in the doorway of the room.
"Hm? Which group do you want information of?"

[[I've figured out exactly how Wadsworth works. He's a self-replicating, chlorine-based Utility fog where each foglet acts as a microprocessor, and RAID together into a supercomputer, who manifests as the personality Wadsworth.]] The leg hit Wadsworth in the back of the head, and he cried out in pain. He cursed loudly, and dropped out of the nearest vent, down into the Coffin Room. He dropped Monoe and clutched at his head, but then stood up straighter. [[He's made himself effectively blind so Azrael can't hurt him.]] Six hands scrabbled on the ground before picking up Monoe again. Wadsworth pointed to Heratik with yet another hand. "Hey! You there! Join group B! She's tasty!" And then he attempted to point to Azrael, but missed. "Can I keep her when group B wins?"

Chryseis ran into the coffin room, sniffing out Monoe, but froze.
She was beaming.
"D-Daddy!"
[[XD]]
Monoe began to hit him, trying to section him into smaller pieces.
"Rargh!"
Azrael shrugged.
"I don't care. I don't knoww what she's even here for..."

"....Bloody ********' perfect." Rufus cursed underneath an exiting of smoke. Without giving it much thought, he had already knew what team he would be apart of. He took another drag off of the pipe.

Chryseis pulled the puzzled reporter-man form the broadcast out of a portal.
"So, group D, right? You messed up the letters, father. It should be Destruction, Carnivorous, Benevolence, and Assassination."
"Really?", Mocha added, who also went to report to him. "I like the letter 'C'. Group Coup. He picked it out, I'm certain!"
"No, not really," Azrael remarked. "I didn't, you know... really care."
"Well, then, D for 'Decency'."
Azrael slapped his forehead with his hand.
"Uggggghhh..."

Wadsworth could feel people coming into the room, but due to his self-inflicted blindness, he couldn't tell who they were. He covered Monoe's mouth with a flipper-like appendage and inched out of the room backwards.
~*~
Ecchymos and Vhozd burst into the room. He looked Azrael up and down.
"Who's the leader of group D?"
Then he noticed Wadsworth.
"There he is!"
Ecchymos pointed to Wadsworth and Vhozd bumrushed him. Wadsworth slammed the door to the cafeteria behind him and set off towards the reception room at a mad dash.
