Jude was still tense even as she thanked him for his hitting her even as she admitted that she wasn't thinking clearly. His eyes flicked over the battlefield there was too much going on, it felt like the corners of his mind were being gnawed upon and even Yom was uncomfortable. Restless.
This didn't feel right. It wasn't right. "Bix knew the dangers when he joined," he said firmly, "we all do."
Why were they here if they didn't accept the possible fate of death or even mental trauma now and again? Being a Hunter was suffering. Losing those you care about due to ... circumstances was an inevitable thing for them all but...
This was not the time to give in, "Please, Ariane, try to fight it," his tone was urgent, pleading, "you have to help me and the others. I don't know what's going on with you or the rest of them but..."
He reached out to grab her by the hand, a desperate attempt to try and pull her from the collective.

Backed into a corner. It was looking hopeless to say the least. Attack after attack penning him in. Murdered by his own ******** people, it wasn't how he wanted to go - though he couldn't say it wasn't expected. He'd spent months just making them hate him. He held Tracey so tightly his knuckles turned white, craving with all his hear and soul to just let himself go for it, just to attack the bastards trapping him like an animal in this corner, to help defend Harrison. His shield was barely holding up, Tracey in his thoughts getting panicky and terrified. No one would drag him back to camp here, these were his own people and there was no longer any camp.
There were a few things he expected to happen, primarily a bloody death. Right at the top of the list of s**t he didn't expect to happen was for a stripy dinosaur lizard thing to leap to his aid. He blinked. Well. Guardian angels apparently came in all ******** shapes these days, and despite his usual loathing of the halloween creatures and his enormous pride, just this once he wasn't looking a gift horse in the mouth.
He wasn't sure how to thank a giant bristling monster so settled for clapping him on the side with a hand. "That'll do pig."
Leon backing him up was likewise a shock, and he couldn't help but smirk. "Right, we are even."
Ro was being damn hysterical and Rep simply shot him a cold glare "Man the ******** up Ro. She's mad. She dies."
Harrison's aid was the most welcome thing all day. He could have hugged him for actually thinking that far ahead if they hadn't already probably quota'd out on hugging so far that day. Instead he got a grateful smile and a nod as Tracey stopped panicking and the shield restored.
"Aye." he replied anxiously, low and terse. "We need to get the ******** out of here or at least get through to monsterbitch."
He might have eyed Bul thoughtfully.

In shock to see two of there own transform into monsters, Tori thought if that happened to the two of them then none of them were safe. But how long would it talk if it did, seeing Bix transform Aklin had grown very quiet saying nothing to his hunter except for an occasional shifting that let Tori know he was still there. Tori knew she couldn't follow the orders that Caelius had given them as this was too much like the time with Julie and she couldn't do it and she couldn't hit one of her own especially one of her best friends. She could hurt the freaks with no problem but not one of there own.
Breathing in deep as Tori tried to keep it together when she did see Bix die and she even heard Before call out and she did feel just like how Before felt as she started to cry a little. She wanted to go out and find were Before was but Tori was so frozen in place really unsure with herself on what she could do. She so just wanted to cry out loud and cry but that wasn't an option now since the freaks were around. It was something she would do at home since now one of her best friends was dead and she felt something inside die too.
Tori for now stuck by Sherry since it was a confort to have one friend near by with her weapon still out just in case one of the freaks decided to attack them since they were outnumbered.

Leon's defense was a welcome surprise, the lizard-creature's even more so. Jordan's eyes flickered from their small group to the hunters and the fog-creature facing them. "Guys," he said. "All we're accomplishing is weakening ourselves and the people we're supposed to be fighting with. Back off. If she attacks them - maybe it'll serve as a wake-up call."

It felt good to fight. To know where he stood in one aspect. He pulled his arm back, preparing to punch the barrier when out of the corner of his eye he saw the zomboil begin moving off. Slowly he lowered his arm. So that was it, their time over. Emotions boiled just under the surface, egged on by twinges of insanity, the possessiveness rising up as he saw Alexander approaching Miss Belladonna Divine.
But he had no rights here, so he held the insanity in check, forcing himself not to move after him. It was okay, he could just go check on the others. Find his mother, Miss Xiu-Ying, and Miss Danny. Mot. Frost in the Storm. Rikki. It did not explain why instead he just stood there, watching as the distance between them grew.

Without a doubt, Bul and Rep had to be on the same sort of wavelinks. Whatever they were planning, the half beast seemed totally okay with it. Even after the pig remark. Hey, this guy pulled a Cael/Invi level attack with a single swing- his anger matched his strength.
Bul could respect that. It was the trait of a pro bruteball player. Maybe Rep would enjoy the sport? c:
Upon hearing Jordan though, the monster nodded its massive skull and actually nudged the hunter in the back before flicking its tongue in the direction of the barrier around Tro. Perhaps he could recruit them in the fight for his buddy's life? Seeing as the hunters were becoming a single entity like the fog, and when it came to fighting fog he stood by what he'd said to Rep in the tent.

Dakota inclined his head at Harrison, "Insanity is doing the same thing, over and over again, but expecting different results. Something a genius once said. You think attacking over and over again will yield different results and yet its the same thing over and over again." He stared at Rep instead.
"Attack first, don't explore options, fitting for a sun. Like Jordan said, until she attacks you guys need to step off and let us find a way.." Anything, anyway.
Containment, Where was the goddamn life techs when you need them? ******** useless assholes. Dakota kept Chama up in her barrier stance as he eyed the hunters on the otherside. With Rep being bandaged up, it was a small comfort to know the sun hunter would be strong and back for another round.
Ryan! Dakota pulled the other hunter back and grimaced. If he attacks again, we'll decimate him. For right now, we need to group in and focus on Ceres. Did we try bandages?
The thought spread to the rest of the chained mind hunters.
She finally pulled away from the humans. They tasted bad for some reason and it wasn't solving anything for her. A shame, really. She could still feel that pain in her gut and she needed to fill it with something - not out of necessity, but out of desire. She could have lived with that pain in her gut without it really hurting her.
She turned towards the foggy barrier that had formed, narrowing her eyes at it - chains, doors, trees, resistance.... that just wouldn't do. Clearly whatever was on the other side of that was something worth digging into.
It took only a moment for the fog to overwhelm her mind when she stepped into it to start plowing through that haze, sinking her teeth into the first thing she could find - which happened to be another student and not the barrier at all.

Ryan fought against Dakota's grip on him. He wanted so badly to decimate them now! There was no point in waiting. Clearly their minds were made up. They wanted Ceres dead, just like Bix.
They don't! He snapped, his anger causing the voice projected into their heads to be louder than he intended. Bandages don't work either! We've tried!

Szczeosny had stumbled out of the fog, down, down, down, into the midst of a battle he couldn't quite wrap his mind around. It wasn't that he was injured, but something was different, and wrong. Voices had been plaguing him since he'd first ended up in this place, and they'd only grown worse. But what was really paralyzing him was his own doubts. It was how everyone was looking at him even as fighting roared all around. He could see it in their eyes, even in a glance. They could see right through him, couldn't they. He wasn't cut out for this, he was a burden, useles; why didn't they come out and say it already??
He wanted to go Home...
Focus!
A distinct voice snapped at him through the vocal white noise buzzing in and out of his head. For a moment, the haze lifted off his mind.
"Piosenka..."
Haven't you been listening to me? You have orders to attack that -- abomination over there! You're going to get yourself killed if you don't do something.
Szczeosny clutched the saw uncertainly. Around the creature - bearing a moon symbol, of all things - were hunters. But they weren't attacking...
Dummies were one thing, even those horrible Halloween demons were yet another. But something seemed wrong about this. Whispering surged in his thoughts, their words just out of reach.
MOVE!
Jolted, the life hunter swung his saw out at the creature, or whatever blocked the blade's path.

Harrison was right. As far as leon could guess, the research mission turned into some kind of survival training again, with friendly fire. It wasn't exactly the best way to build morale. With the way jerry was acting, he figured the poor sun lost his marbles, again. "Who do we attack then?" the life hunter asked to the little group he found himself sided with, with the damn salamander too. "Aren't you worried about your other comrades there, jesus lizard?"
But at least out of all this, rep was still standing. That was enough for the athlete for now as he gave the ginger a grin back and lightly bumped a fist to his noggin. "Let's not lose our heads out here, if only we can get in contact with a division leader." he muttered, once again, one was hard to find when times were tough.
Yay leadership. "we need a gameplan to get out of this foggy nightmare, any ideas?"

Her mind felt like it was going to split open, what with all the thoughts passing through it. She got a headache from Xedis, but this.. her mind was on overdrive. Her attention was drawn to someone, a hunter, who had decided to try his luck chipping away at their defense. Turning fully towards him, she loosed two rounds from her guns on the life hunter, Lucky.
"Get away from her!"

As he drew back, he felt several somethings slam into him and practically knock him off his feet. He spun around to see a . Piosenka's voice cut in and out of his thoughts, fighting for dominance amongst an aural overload.
What are you doing --
"Her?" he shouted back to the hunter, a heavy accent on his broken English. Why would a hunter refuse an order to fight one of these creatures, and instead actively defend it? Something had to be wrong with her - "Zwariowałeś! Is not person! Is shadow, is just fog shadow!"
She's not --
"But..." he held up the saw protectively in front of him. The runes that shimmered in the blade dimmed ever so slightly in response to this action, followed by a flare - realization? Szczeosny moved forward in a fluid motion, eyes wide with his own sudden idea. The idea that she wasn't even real. "How am knowing you are not also?"
The cold metal of the saw cleaved into the last of Kat's fear shield.
And a quiet voice lost in the whispering, screaming, shouting in his head observed. Oh, Szczeosny... what have you done?

Mitsu shook her head to Shun but still eyed his daggers in a leery fashion. The wound she was sure wasn't bad but she didn't feel up to taking the sharp end of his blades back into her side any time soon. When he explained what happened she almost flinched when he charged forward to attack again but this time it seemed his daggers hit their mark. It was a relief.
Deciding it was best to give it another go herself Mitsu followed suit. She drew up her fist and made to wail on the barrier but when she hit it she bounced back like it was made of rubber. The force was greater than what she had used against it and she found herself flying into Shun as a result.
Name: Mitsu Lupus HP: 36 / 50 FEAR Strength: 90% Insanity Strength: 0% Items: 2 pumpkin pills RP Blurb: a small 5'2" student werewolf with white short cut hair in a pixie style cut, a panda hoodie, and a tattered black skirt and leggings.
Shun looked a little relieved as she shook her head. There was that at least. When Mitsu moved to attack the barrier once more, he went in as well. However, he probably shouldn't have stuck so close to her. Before he knew it, she came bouncing right into him as he moved in to attack, knocking him over in the process.. And the next thing he knew was that he felt something wet against his hands. His eye widened and he quickly dismissed his daggers while they both fell.
he hissed while carefully moving the lycan to try and look her over.
"Mitsu.. Mitsu.. are you alright?"
Nevermind that her bouncing into him like that took a fair chunk out as well, but he wasn't the one that was bleeding here. Nevertheless, he cursed under his breath again.
"I'm so sorry.. I.. didn't mean to.."
Maybe he should just not try attacking the barrier anymore. He managed to strike it the one time but quite frankly he was harming the wolf girl far more. Damn he was pretty useless right now.
