Cee had been absorbed in watching many things. First it was Rep and Jordan wailing on zombies. Then it was zombie-Tuck charging in and being soundly knocked out by some tiny girl with a giant sword (which earned a 'WHOO GO GIRL' from Cee). The Rep collapsed and came back in a frenzy. Then Nora had been talking to her but she'd been absorbed, almost fascinated, by Mimsy trying to... tame.. her zombie husband. Of course that soap opera had ended like Romeo and Juliet.... with zombies. And now they were together in infection.
"Girl.. I could listen ta you talk all day.." She winked a moment. "But maybe we should do somethin bout that?" But in true Cee fashion, made no movement at all to help.

Zascha had managed to untangle himself from the wire. And it was poor timing on Nellie's part to be honest. As she tripped it drew his attention away from the other hunter. She had become a much easier looking meal to obtain than the other.
Tripping over some debris and bodies laying about on the floor he took to crawling on his hands and knees towards her. His eyes full of hunger as he grasped to get a hold of her again once he was close enough.

-- HARRISON IS INFECTED WITH THE PARANOIA VIRUS -- The attacks came from all sides, the thing that wasn't Rep tearing into him again, a burst of energy from somewhere, a gruesome, tall-looking thing jabbing a blade into him. Jordan looked the same. Like a dark funhouse ******** mirror of himself.
Dangeeeeerously low shield also you are tripping out big time man I am like on full alert here and you have got like malware or something. Why are they fighting us??? Hey! I've got it under control in here! Let me just, uh, cross some wires, annnnnnnnnd yeah we can't take any more hits.
"R-Rep," Harrison said, and just like in blue Kingdom he wasn't asking for the version of Rep that was beside him.
There was a burst of blue.
An old, thick-bound book appeared, leathery spine spreading like a shield. The symbol of Protection shined across the cover, and magic swirled around Harrison and B0nez.
To Harrison, even the Book seemed sinister, and he cowered before the runes, B0nez held in front of him.
"s**t. s**t, please."
HP: 4 DEF: 3 + 9 = 12 Using: Book of Protection (+9 DEF)
Artifact
3. Book of Protection: A book that glows a brilliant blue. It speaks of protection. Battle effect: Once per battle you can stack +1 to your defense roll, at any point in time, equal to the number of defensive blocks you have made. Thus if you defended 6 times, you get +6 defense.

That really wasn't the way to go. So much for trying to help the other Hunter with putting Zascha down so that one of the Life techs could give him a shot of the vaccine that was currently going around. Nellie winced as she tried to pick herself up from the ground, only to quickly back up from Zascha who was now trying to crawl over to get to her once more.
Kicking out with her legs, she tried to get him to desist in his efforts to get to her, using the momentum generated at the same time to propel herself back some to try to put some distance between the both of them while Niffy growled at her to try to get her to calm down lest the situation actually got worse for her.
He had forgotten what it felt like to be alone again. Just a bottomless ache of hurt and anger that would not relent. They were attacking Harrison because they knew that would hurt him, even if he'd been fooled, even if he'd been wrong, they knew watching him be hurt - any version of him be hurt would be agony, they wanted to goad him but he wouldn't let them.
He'd get there first, he'd not give them the satisfaction of being the ones to end the happiness that was in his life. He wasn't strong enough to kill them, he knew it as certainly as he knew he wasn't enough to be worth their time.
"I'm not sorry." he said.

Sasha had been watching the unfolding events with a sort of passive disinterest - at least until certain dramas began to play out. Evan's was given special attention, and so was Mimsy's - but Rep, oh, Rep's entire situation was far too compelling. She wasn't wholly sure what was going on, but what mattered was that he was attacking Harrison.
Sasha gave Lawr's arm a squeeze before she slipped away with a murmured, "Be right back, darling."
Nona was quickly summoned, the Alkonost shrieking to life in her hand. No longer dual swords, the weapon hummed to life as a whole new entity - a staff, hooks gleaming with deadly precision at either end. Nona was ravenous, beyond speech, and she let out a thrilled hiss of pleasure as she connected with Harrison's shield.
Cee sighed as her King and Queen went paranoid weirdo on each other. It was a deep sigh, a very very dramatic sigh. Her whips were summoned, gleaming silver white in the lights.
"So... STUPID. Gahd DAMN. What a buncha queens.." The tiny woman sashayed forward enough to strike Harrison's defense, enough to finally bring it down. The whips lashed one after the other in grazing but effective strikes.

Lawr patiently watched the chaos, doing little to attract specific attention.
The sad part was that due to his condition, he wasn't even entertained.
Nora paled considerably when faced with not one but three zombies. There were few things that honestly scared her, and viral infections were one of them. "Yes, ah...we probably should," she said casually.
But Cee had turned to deal with a different threat. Oh boy. She was probably going to regret this..."Just make sure that doesn't spill over," she added to Cee before giving a light bap on science.
"Oi, cut it out now." Like they were dealing with unruly children instead. Nora swallowed.
Peyton bit her tongue on her urge to snarl out a bitter 'I told you' as whatever had been affecting Rep jumped to Harrison and the two went for each other's throats. She should have just kept attacking, brought the larger Sun down before anymore bullshit could rain down on them. Sympathy held her back, now look where they were.
Jordan jumping in to try to get between them was not completely unexpected, but it did come as a surprise. The rest of her team had moved onto the offensive, targeting Harrison, but as Peyton tensed to join the blonde Moon stuttered out Reps name, wielding some sort of magic, and the girl switched targets mid motion.
Rep attacked, Harrison defended, and Peyton slid under Tracy's wicked blade to come up fast on the redhead's other side. A shift of her grip on Warrick's handle, and it was her fist that came up against the underside of Rep's jaw, instead of the any part of the blade. Holding back, even now, with the ******** on a rampage.
A second hit followed the first, again knuckles without the bite of Warrick's sharp edge. "Snap the ******** out of it!"
She had to neutralize the threat.

-- HARRISON IS INFECTED WITH THE PARANOIA VIRUS -- The magic finally cracked, shield crumbling into nothing.
Harrison struck out blindly, in the direction of the last point of pain, sinking B0nez's shorter dagger into Cee's gut.
There was a build up, and then another explosive ripple of paranoia, shooting through the air like electricity. Cee got the brunt of it, but anyone nearby was also vulnerable.

Most of the commotion appeared to have died down...with the exception of a few squirmishes here and there, but Molly stayed with her back and hands against the wall. Her wide eyed gaze swung to the Hunters she did know, who appeared to be...out of their minds. She didn't get it. She didn't get it at all, so she didn't think about it too hard.
Maybe this was just a really bad dream. After all, this was all pretty craziness, even more so than she was used to, and she had to be having a bad dream. Dakota wouldn't act like he had been...

She had managed to put some distance between them but he just kept on coming. Crawling through muck that puddled on the floor. His jacket and clothes were beginning to turn different shades of red and brown from all that he had been crawling through.
Zascha tried to grab her ankle as she kicked at him but missed.
Cee was hit hard by Harrison, coughing and gasping as she was hit in the gut. Suddenly she felt all eyes on her, every single one of those <********> was watching her. Usually this would be a good thing but she felt an instant rush of paranoia and she just knew they were coming for her next.
"GIDDOFF!" Her whips lashed wildly, arms crossing back and forth in front of her to strike Harrison fiercely with strength she'd yet to find in a state of sanity.
"It ain't me.. ITS THEM. GET THEM!!" Her voice had reached a sudden hysterical pitch and Snap was lashed back and forth in front of her as a warning. Anyone coming close was going to get it.
A wash of something, like a crackle of electricity, and Jordan didn't even have time to realize that he was too close or regret it before the world skewed and resettled. Of course, he thought again, his eyes flicking from face to face as the heavy weight of anger and resentment that lay in his stomach began to crackle and burn. It was a mockery, all of it, the pretended care and friendship, and why had he ever thought he wasn't alone?
Jordan? Ferros sounded startled, worried. Jordan's fist clenched around the hammer's handle. Ferros wasn't -- Ferros wasn't ... The depth of the shared bond wouldn't allow the lie, and Jordan's mind skittered away from the concept like a droplet of water across hot metal. He could neither believe that Ferros loved him nor that Ferros was deceiving him, and the paradox could only be sustained if he didn't think about it. There were plenty of other people to think about.
Peyton and America, who smiled to his face and laughed behind his back. Noah, who he could not trust and would not. Cee, who thought him pompous and snobbish. Melvin, who wished that he was dead instead of Rin.
Harrison, who didn't care if he left, who had kept him around out of pity and maybe convenience. Rep, who had kept him at arm's length, knowing the whole time what it would do to him and intending all along to break him.
Jordan turned on Rep, ignoring Ferros's voice, and snarled, "You drove me out, you never wanted me there at all. Neither of you did. It never mattered if I left. It never mattered that I was there. You a*****e," and instead of swinging a strangely uncooperative weapon, he brought his left fist around to drive into Rep's gut, furious, his eyes glittering with all the pain and anger he had held in check for months on end.
