The skinwalker sighed even as they were falling, one eye closed in a wince as Shehk screamed in his ear, the sound slightly warped by the 'whoosh' of air around them as they plunged into the dark. On the bright side, it was words she was screaming and not mindless barking and/or howling, which was a plus... it meant she was coherent again anyway. And coherency meant one more logical (more logical than his, by far,) mind helping them through this impossible game of secret agents.

Yeah, he still thought of it all as one big game. Still, it was becoming less and less one with each thoughtful moment that passed, his decidedly-lazy brain taking in all the experiences and starting to form a reasonable conclusion. Take this instance, for example. The gnomes had reasserted the idea that it was a game in his head, with them as some living safety net, correctly assuming they got into trouble. Which they had. Unfortunately, despite his waiting for them to burst in at any second to save them from their idiocy (then again, how were THEY supposed to know how to put out a fire when EVERYTHING WAS WOOD?!) they never did. That had put a damper on his conclusion... as he'd stared at the hole, he'd started to wonder if perhaps he was wrong.

He'd jumped anyway. That was just the kind of monster he was. Even Nuk hadn't believed they would be able to escape the fall without injury. He wasn't that disillusioned -- beyond those with wings, he knew that even with the christmas lights there was likely to be some sort of hurt coming their way, either from an impact with the bottom of the hole or the wire from the lights cutting into his gut as he reached the end of the line. He'd compensated for this by holding onto Shehk and trying to keep her against his body, so at least if they did hit the floor, he'd soften her landing. He didn't really like the other option (aka dropping Shehk as the wire suddenly slowed his descent and possibly sliced him in half) so he didn't think about it, which solved most problems, right?

... right?

It was mere luck that right at the moment he was beginning to question his decision there came a hard jerk against his body, a hard yet fuzzy something slowing his fall and knocking the air out of him, his arms tightening a little around Shehk. It took a few seconds for him to even be able to speak again, coughing a little petulantly and sucking in a breath before scowling, squinting his eyes and looking around into the limited light. All around him he could see dots of colored light hovering in the air, illuminating a few pairs of eyes as well as the bodies of some of the other students, Nuk's eyebrow lifting slightly. Even as he did so, however, he glanced up to see another glowing merrily above his head.

Oh god, it was reindeer.

Still clinging to Shehk, he swung out one hand to bat at the reindeer holding him, growling a little more petulantly at it, the sound weak even to him. He knew it had saved him... them... and he loathed the thought entirely, but there was a sense of decency in him. How could you really hurt something that had potentially saved your unlife? So instead he just looked annoyed, wiggling half-heartedly and staring down into the darkness, wondering if he even wanted it to drop him and the Pricolici. It seemed they were reaching the ground... maybe they could make it. In the end, he decided on no and just hung there limply, in a decidedly annoyed and confused mood, having nothing better to say other than 'Get your hoofs off my girl.' And even that was weak. Instead, he turned his attention to Shehk, who had stopped screaming and now was addressing him once again.

"I should've, but then I would have missed your lovely screams," he teased a little sarcastically, lifting an eyebrow at her continued statement, "And we're not going to die. Not yet. Or again, in your case."

That last part was muttered, his attention returned to the situation as his feet brushed the ground, and he tugged out of the reindeer's grip, narrowing his eyes at them and unhooking the lights from his waist with one hand. The other stayed firmly around Shehk, clearly not trusting the creatures especially not with his girlfriend (or his almost-girlfriend. Or would-be-girlfriend. Semantics.) Feeling her tense in his grip as she noticed the JOYful creatures, he pulled her a little tighter to him, saying nothing towards what the reindeer had asked, glowing amber eyes instead peering into the darkness as the others answered. Of them, it was in Amrita's that he saw an opening, a devious glint in his eye as he finally addressed them.

"Hey, look what you're goin and doin now, making a little girl cry like this," he asserted, putting on his best scowl. Hopefully, the prospect of scaring a nine year old would keep them off the questions, "Can't you see the poor girl just wants to go home? Now why don't you be nice little glowsticks and help us find a way out of here, instead of making this poor traumatized girl relive being attacked by a nutcase with a metal fetish."

Once settled on the floor of the hole Sammy turned to face the so called 'saviors' of their little party. Now Sammy was one to judge quickly, she hated most demons on sight till they proved why she shouldn't otherwise (See Julian, he was okay in her books currently) however after watching her fellow peers being assaulted by deer, and having to put one down herself during the time in Christmas Town she found it rather hard to quickly jump aboard the 'lets trust the deer' train. Torch held high she studied the four with a look that only tried to cover the fact she thought the deer should be treated as food or mounts. Granted Tahki was way cooler, she was a gryphon aka; awesome.

However something was more amiss then the reindeer coming to the rescue. This hole had been made by a giant robot, which now sat sparking in the corner, what was interesting though was the chest laying around the room. "Anyone see anything good in those boxes? And you four, glowing noses, why did you save us?"  

[demon_pachabel]

Shehk huffed at the teasing (though not too much. She'd be surprised if the skinwalker would put up with too much of her abuse at the time). Then again, there wasn't too much time for her to be huffy, as their little group was currently staring down the deer. She wouldn't lie there was a part of her that thought they looked sort of delicious.

"I don't think I'm going to say I feel particularly 'safe' at the moment...." Shehk said, looking at the downed robot, and then up at the hole in the ceiling that was...well.. a hole in the ceiling. But there was still snow falling in, and it was making her a little antsy. Not anxious, but...well.... Shehk just didn't want to end up buried. Especially not in the cold.

Oh man.

She didn't even protest when it seemed like she was going to be glued to the skinwalker's side. She did, however, pass a glance through the dark to see who else her eyes could make out...there waaasss...Sammy.. Sammy looked like she was okay... and Amrita was sobbing. Shehk didn't blame the ghoul, really. Fire was horrible. Horrible and bad and they would need to have a woe-party when they got back to school with lots of eye Scream and a good movie where humans got ripped apart.

Yes.

Ghoul party when they got back. (Maybe Nuk and Petro and Julian could come too....and Lucien and Israfel. Okay. A Yellow-door-party).

"But honestly, I'd settle for being sure we're not going to die from.." she pointed at the robot in the snow, "THAT...." she then paused, ears flicking whenever she heard the sound of sparking, glancing about in the darkness to find the source. "What the hell is that noise...?"

Blue eyes narrowed as the Siren backed away and pulled out his yellow snow. "STAY BACK!" He held out the jar in his best possible threatening manner. "BACK TO WHENCE YOU CAME FOUL CREATURES OF JOY!"

As a group, the Rescue Reindeer took a step back away from the Siren, the token female pink-nosed reindeer having rejoined the group. "Ugggh!" Said one, wrinkling its glowing nose.
"What is that?!"
"That's SO gross!"
"Look! I'll do anything you want as long as you put that away!"

The other three Rescue Reindeer stared at their companion, surprised. "Anything? Man that's..."
"Yeeeeah."
"Good luck with that."

VAMPS!
While in Christmastown, Israfel now has a Rescue Reindeer to command (after putting away the yellow snow, of course). Your Rescue Reindeer can't do anything in battle, sadly, but it has a HP of 10. Once it reaches 0, Israfel loses his new unwanted slave. Let me know which deer you'd like~

With one of the group under Israfel's comman, the Rescue Reindeer now have a total of 30 HP!

Hazel founded her self falling, but soon it all went fuzzy literally. She was sitting on the back of a big reindeer's neck. Creeped out as ever she jumped off just before they landed. She attacked, but pondered why no one else had and stopped her attack.

Wreath damage: 5
HP:: 15

After the shock of the fire and jumping down a pit only to be saved by your enemy, it was pretty obvious that at this point many students were mainly looking out for themselves or close friends. While the group wisely was wary of attacking the Rescue Reindeer, the thrown wreath was tossed onto one of the deer. "Hey, what's th- OW! That HURT!"
"Hey! Weren't we warned about these people?!" One of the deer exclaimed, stomping a hoof on the ground. "These are THEM! You know, the people who've been attacking everyone else without warning!"
"You think?!" The wreath'd reindeer said, tossing its head to get rid of it. "Look what they just did to me! I feel sorry for having helped them now! Some thanks we get."

The deer muttered angerly, one of them tossing sympathetic looks to Amrita as she did her best to explain the situation. "I'm sorry," it told her, "I'd like to help further, but since we were just attacked for trying to help..." It trailed off with a sorry shrug.

"Stop being so nice!" One of the reindeer interrupted, smacking the other with a hoof. "Can't you see they're just going to attack us again? We need to strike first! RESCUE REINDEER ASSEMBLE!"

Immediately the three free deer came together, posing for a moment (it was quite obvious that they weren't compelte without their fourth member). It looked like they were getting ready to attack!

Yoooou guys shouldn't have done that. >_> Anyway, in the future damage posts without RP posts will be disregarded in order to keep the RP moving. Attack times will be random!

Also making another post after this, FYI!

"EEEEEHEHEHEHEHEHEHEHE!

Oh, no.



Guess who's back?

The Yellow Santa Scout cackles from the back of a reindeer, waving two elf-issued candy canes viciously. "You thought you defeated me? Think again! I'll burn brighter than before!" It shrieks, diving down to attack everyone!

...or it would if it didn't fall off the reindeer's back, failing so hard to the point that it did 4 damage to itself upon landing on the ground. It quickly scrambled back onto the reindeer's back and acted as if nothing happened.

HP: 25
Damage Done: WTF GAIA DICE no damage lmao.

Quote:

Welcome to Phas 2 of the Yellow Santa Scout Battle. For now, please specify whether you are attacking the Rescue Reindeer or the Yellow Santa Scout. You do NOT have to attack if you don't want to.

The Yellow Santa Scout's attacks will still hit everybody. The Rescue Reindeer will only target three people at a time, one for each reindeer. Hint: It is possible for the RR to also attack the Yellow Santa Scout, but they currently do not have a reason. Or do they?

 

[Reeshie Hack]

Julian hadn't seen the ghoul throw her wreath, but he saw the results. And now the deer who had HELPED his classmates and friends were now on the offensive.

If he could talk, he would have yelled at her.

But he couldn't and now they had a bigger problem because the freaking elf was back, this time with sharpened candy-canes and riding a reindeer. What WAS it with everyone and riding their quadruped companions? Well, he couldn't take out his annoyance at Christof or Sammy because when it all came down to it, they needed Tahki's help. And Sammy was being a lot nicer about it.

But he could take it out on an elf that had, for no reason on two occasions, threatened or attacked him and his classmates. Leaving his lights on the floor, he launched himself into the air, heading straight for the yellow eyesore, talons at the ready.
He'd be careful, though.
After all. He didn't want to hurt the mount.

Even in the low light, his aim proved true.

Julian's HP :: 12
Attack Damage (To Yellow Scout) :: 4  

[Chobi_Chocobo]

Uhoh looks like the deer were pissed now. But the scout seemed more like a more important threat at the moment. Tahki ignored the deer and went for the scout with her mighty claws instead. Ha! Take that scout.

Why their team mate had chosen to attack deer that had just saved their asses was beyond her but maybe she had her reasons? After all they were deer and deer had attacked them earlier. But these ones at the same time had just saved their asses. It was confusing.

"YOU! WITH THE WREATH! ARE YOU JACK-FRAKING-RESTARTED!" Her voice cut through aimed right at Hazel, her quick reactions possibly costing them all their lives, or at least a long trip to the nurses office later. "Do you LIKE picking fights with people who just saved half of us from splattering on the floor for jumping down a giant hole!?"

Slipping from Tahki's back she gave the Gryphoness a pat as she went on her way to assault the yellow scout before turning to the Rescue Reindeer. For Jack's sake, she might have issues, but these rescue deer had SAVED them, she wouldn't attack them till they turned against the students.

"Don't mind the boy with the snow... he's been like this since we got here, he doesn't really mean any harm he's just scared! You would feel the same if you came to our world!" She turned again to Hazel glaring, "As for her, she doesn't speak for us! You saved my friends," she pointed to Shehk and Nuk, "From splattering on the floor, I don't have a reason to fight you, if you want to beat on the idiot for hitting your thats your choice. Right now we could REALLY use your help fighting psycho elf over there."

As Julian streaked off she could only nod in approval, for a little owl demon stuck in his owl form he was rather good at what he did. "Your call rescue deer, we deal with the scout and we can at least talk about this with out him trying to murder us all possibly." With that she turned from the trio before running at the yellow scout offering a quick blow to his side as they crossed paths.

"NUK use the lights I gave you on this p***k try and knock him off the deer!"

While Shehk hadn't exactly been the most pleasant of Pricolici on the front of the fact she'd been screaming and crying and nearly dying all over the place, the did have to see the fact that someone had done something completely stupid, the girl immediately barking at the reaper-girl, Hazel.

"OI! Don't just do stupid s**t on your own, you complete waste of flesh! Because you did, now we're all in more danger than we were before!!" she wheezed, keeping one arm around Nukpana's shoulders while she hissed angrily in Hazel's direction. "I have never attacked somebody who didn't bring it to me first! YOU SHOULD LEARN THIS." she barked a few times, before looking about for something to grab at...
....
......

There was something sparking in the darkness, however, and the Pricolici had to stare at it, letting her eyes adjust to it. It was...
.....
.......

Sparking. That would have been painful to run into, now wouldn't it? However, looking around elsewhere, there wasn't a lot she could use as a weapon. Oh, fiddlesticks!!  

[Appeal]

Lucien wasn't entirely sure what happened with the wreath and the other reindeer, but when Lucien looked up he seen two things. 1. The psycho yellow scout who was in the mecha machine trying to kill them all, well as dead as some of them could get, earlier. 2. Israfel was riding a reindeer. He wasn't sure which was worse out of the two but he couldn't just sit on the ground anymore watching everyone fight.

He slowly stood up, and sort of half shook his head before glaring at the yellow scout. Why wouldn't he leave them alone? He didn't have a weapon anymore but he could still do something! He picked up a piece of rubble off the ground and biffed it at the yellow scout only to miss entirely as the piece of rubble barely moved a couple feet.

"Leave us alone!"

Lucien's HP: 11

Dang she really should of stopped that attack. They did save her... but really whatever now. They were here to kick some Christmas town arse and well now was a good a time as ever. Hazel went for her wreath and then out came the...oh god that yellow ranger again. She turned and tossed it at him now.

Damage:: 4
HP:: 15  

[Marushii]

The yellow elf flailed as the attacks hit, fuming. Smoke visibly curled out from under the visor. "Uggggh! You little --!" It kicked the reindeer it was riding on in frustration, stopped, then took a deep breath. "Hooo, okay. Breathe, Yellow, breathe. Santa says that to spread Christmas cheer is to sing loudly for all to hear, and to please stop stabbing that other elf when upset. You can do this Yellow, hoooo."

The elf was still.

Then it wasn't.

The remaining deer still looked furious, muttering darkly amongst themselves. "I still think we should attack them."

"But one of them still needs our help!"

"So? The one that threw that thing of us hasn't apologized!"

"But the rest said their pieces at her..."

"But that thing hurt!"

"OW! What was that?"

"What was what?"

"That thing that just hit us!"

"I don't know, was it that girl again?"

"I wasn't paying attention!"

"You never pay attention!"

"Shut up!"

[Enter post, 25HP with Tangled lights. Sorry for the short post, am sick and can't concentrate. >.<; Also, will edit after seeing roll results!]

No sooner did she enter the yellow door that she begun to regret her decision; there were debris scattered around as well as a giant hole in the ground, like the remnants of an epic battle. To make things worse, there was a wall on fire. How that came about, she really didn't want to know. Turning around, Lizzy yanked at the handle of the door, but realized that it would not turn - she was stuck here.

She looked around, desperate for a way out; however, the only "exit" she could see was the hole in the ground, an arrow pointing downwards, inviting her to jump in. Unsure of what she should do, the Demoness approached the hole and looked down, wondering if it was a trap set for students like her... That would explain why she could not see anyone around! Then again, if the rest of the students were down there, she really should join in.

Taking in a deep breath, she readied herself and jumped, screaming as she dropped into the darkness. So frightened was she that she failed to realize that she had stopped falling; instead,s he kept screaming for a good 5 seconds after she had reached the bottom, her fall broken by something... Soft and squishy? Taking in quick breaths to calm her nerves, she looked down and saw the most ridiculous thing she had seen since the drunken trees - someone dressed in a really weird costume.
